What we ordered: Podi Masala Dosai: Our server was fantastic and steered us toward this perfect choice. It had just the right amount of heat and paired beautifully with the fresh coconut and tomato chutneys. Okra Masala, Basmati Rice, & Garlic Naan: The okra was delicious, and the basmati rice was cooked perfectly--never mushy or clumped, with each grain distinct and fluffy. As for the garlic naan, it was the best I've ever had! Tender yet crispy in all the right places. Restaurant food can often feel heavy, but this meal was light on oil, letting the authentic spices and loving preparation really shine. This wonderful little business deserves to be packed every night. Please go support this fabulous restaurant!

It was decent, providing a mild and edible baseline, but nothing memorable. * **Kadhai Paneer:** Marketed as a house specialty, yet it completely missed the mark. The dish was a total mess featuring an overly rich, heavy-handed gravy that swallowed any authentic flavor, completely missing the signature crisp bell peppers that define the dish. * **Baingan Bharta:** Suffered from an identity crisis, containing far too many peas rather than focusing on the smoky roasted eggplant base. * **Naans:** Dense, rubbery, and a sorry excuse for traditional Indian flatbread.

We order several times a month and could eat this food several times a week. Never disappoints! We were so excited to find out Da Tandoor had reopened, we ordered right away and it was FANTASTIC. Will be ordering again this week. The Chicken Tikka is amazing and the Garlic Nans are stuffed with real roasted garlic. Welcome back Da Tandoor we missed you!! Langford you are so lucky! We wish they had opened in Royal Oak! P.S. Add the pickled onions as an add on, you can thank me later. P.P.S. Any negative reviews are obviously from the worried competition lol Da Tandoor is back and the competition will all have to work harder and provide way better food if they want a share of the market. NOTE: I was shocked to see that most of Google seems to think that this business is permanently closed - when it reopened in Langford several years ago

Since we love Indian food we tried this little place in the gas station. Note to self and maybe you: Indian is a little hard to eat in the car but we ate some in the parking lot before leaving. We got Lamb Coconut Curry, Butter Chicken and Vegetable Curry. The servings were generous (enough to have for dinner when we got home with even more leftover for one of us to eat the last of the next day). All entrees come with rice (with whole cumin seeds-a nice touch) and naan as well as free fountain drinks. The curries were a mixed bag. The veggie curry badly needed salt. They may have forgotten to add it? I went back inside and got some. Glad we hadn't left yet. The naan was the same as I buy frozen as my local Indian store. Same triangular shape. It's fine but I would love it if they made their own. The butter chicken was quite sweet, but it was ok. The coconut lamb probably had the best flavor in the gravy of the three. The mango lassis were premade in a frige you reached in to get your own. The predominant flavor was sweetness, and needed way more mango in them. All in all, if you want quick takeout and aren't too picky with your Indian food, give them a try.
