amazing food and amazing service, fantastic atmosphere. all around an amazing restaurant

Tabla Indian Restaurant is probably the most authentic Indian, Thai, and Indo-Chinese food experience that my husband and I have visited. This is not my favorite must have cuisine, however, Tabla really changes that mindset for me! Their food is so delicious that I often find myself wanting it! We visited their location near Universal which happens to be one of the first Yelp events we attended over 10 years ago! There is a small parking lot, since their location by Universal is attached to a hotel. The overall feel was more on the elegant side with beautiful lighting and lots of tables. We were greeted immediately and seated. We started with the Chaat Platter which was an assortment of Pani Poori (Crisp Poori Served with Chickpeas, Potato Stuffing, Mint Water, Tamarind Water, & Sweet Yogurt), Samosa Chaat (Flavored with Indian Spices, Served with Chick Peas, Topped with Sweet Yogurt and Homemade Chutneys), Dahi Bhalla Chaat (Lentil Dumplings, Crispy Flour Strips, Chick Peas, & Diced Potatoes Topped with Sweet Yogurt and Homemade Chutneys) and Aloo Tikki Chaat (Potato Patties Flavored with Indian Spices, Served with Chick Peas, Topped with Sweet Yogurt and Homemade Chutneys). I could not tell you which was which apart from the Pani Poori (the other 3 were very similar in look), however, this was absolutely fantastic! I loved this! It was served cold, which I did not love, but it was still really good and I would order it again. We also ordered the Chili Edamame, which we got at a spice level of 3 and it was so good! I honestly ate most of it, it was so good! We also ordered drinks, I got the Lychee Martini and my husband ordered an Old Fashioned. Both drinks were very good! We had planned on getting more but to be honest we got so full we couldn't do it. We also both ordered the mango lassi off our servers recommendation. It was so good and like pure blended mango! I loved it. I saw they had a cocktail with Mango Lassi so that will be next time! I chose the Butter Chicken which is chicken cooked in a flavorful Tomato Cream Sauce with Basmati Rice, the regular naan and it came with jasmine rice. So good and so classic. This is my favorite and I definitely ate left overs the next day. My husband went with the Chicken Curry which was creamy, tangy, and aromatic dish made with Coconut Milk, Tamarind, Curry Leaves and a Blend of Traditional Spice with Basmati Rice and he chose the garlic naan. This was very flavorful and really good. I love the sauce for this and dipping the naan into it. Overall this is a fantastic restaurant and I am so glad that Tabla comes to many Yelp events! It has changed my mind for Indian food and I am now a fan! This is a place we found because of Yelp but will now visit a lot because we are a fan! read more

Tabla Indian Restaurant being a true authentic Indian, Thai, and Indo-Chinese food experience is unique. When we first entered the restaurant we loved the decor. The overall feel was an elegant feel. We were warm greeted by the host almost immediately. We started with the Chaat Platter (Assortment of Pani Poori (Crisp Poori Served with Chickpeas, Potato Stuffing, Mint Water, Tamarind Water, & Sweet Yogurt) * Samosa Chaat (Flavored with Indian Spices, Served with Chick Peas, Topped with Sweet Yogurt and Homemade Chutneys) * Dahi Bhalla Chaat (Lentil Dumplings, Crispy Flour Strips, Chick Peas, & Diced Potatoes Topped with Sweet Yogurt and Homemade Chutneys) * Aloo Tikki Chaat (Potato Patties Flavored with Indian Spices, Served with Chick Peas, Topped with Sweet Yogurt and Homemade Chutneys) We LOVED this platter. If I had to choose one it would be the Samosa. The platter was a 10 star for us. we also ordered the Chili Edamame, which you can't go wrong with. Absolutely delicious. For drinks my wife ordered a Lychee Martini and I got an Old Fashioned. We also ordered the Mango Lassi(A Classic Indian Mango Yogurt Drink) My wife thought her Lychee Martini was perfect. The Old Fashioned was delicious. The Mango Lassi was outstanding. We each ordered our own and we finished that first. Just tremendous drink. For the entrees we ordered two dishes Chicken Curry (A Creamy, Tangy, and Aromatic Coastal Dish made with Coconut Milk, Tamarind, Curry Leaves and a Blend of Traditional Spice with Basmati Rice) Butter Chicken (A North Indian Delicacy. Chicken cooked in a flavorful Tomato Cream Sauce with Basmati Rice) And finally Garlic and Regular Naan Both dishes had a symphony of flavor. Chicken was succulent in both dishes. My palate was singing for sure. LOVED it. All in all a great dinner, staff were nice and informative about each dish. Great experience. We will definitely return to Tabla. read more

Located in the Clarion hotel on Grand National Dr. It has been quite a few years since we have been here. The entrance door is surrounded by black granite.The dining room is very bright with white granite walls, dark wood floors and white terrazzo table tops. Our server was Ayu. She was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. They have a full bar and nice wine list. The restrooms are located just outside the restaurant in the hotel lobby. Restrooms are also brightly lit with white marble look tiles. We started simply with a garlic naan and a rosemary naan. I ordered Lamb Seekh kebabs. Light and flavorful basmati rice with peas. The lamb is minced and grilled. Served on a sizzling platter (fajita style). with Minced Lamb Seasoned with Fresh Mint, Cilantro, Ginger, Green Chili and Onions There is a generous portion of lamb. A togo box was needed. One opportunity for improvement was having to ask for a refill of my lemonade. There is a weekday lunch special available as well as well as a weekend Thali Menu (served on a platter). It also looks like Tabla is participating in 2026 Orlando Magical Dining. read more

Great option. Food was delicious. Server was nice. He did seem annoyed we were taking our time but overall it was really good. Temperature in restaurant was fairly warm. Will be back though! We ordered two lychee martinis, veggie samosas, buttered chicken, veggie basil rice, cream cheese naan and garlic naan. Way too much food but was all delicious! I do want to add that the server kept implying that I would not like anything he considered too ethnic, I assume lol. For example if I would ask about a certain plate he would not describe it he would would just say he did not think I'd like it. I found it hard to try to want to enjoy new items. read more

This one has been a long time coming! If you are craving a stellar bite of Indian cuisine you've gotta stop by Tabla. Ayu and Shaaun took care of us and the meal was top tier! We started off with a Mango Lassi which as you can see couldn't make the photo list because it was just that good! For appetizers we got the Pani Poori and the veggie samosas and although both of them were great, I'm a sucker for a good Pani Poori sauce! The Tamarind sauce and the green one: 10/10! Their butter chicken was rich and had the perfect flavor profile for a full night out that will give you the itis in the best way possible. Will definitely be returning! read more

I find this place to be great and in a good location. Ordered their noodle dish from starters sections as well as butter chicken, garlic naan and mango lassi. Mango lassi drink was like a sweet mango yogurt. Really good! Butter chicken was flavorful and creamy! Of course cant go wrong with any of the nanny to help eat with their dishes. Also the noodle dish in their starters section came out cold which I didn't expect. Yet, was really good with the spices and have a kick to it! Definitely enjoyed it! read more

I have never tried Indian in Orlando because I thought we didn't have any good options but I was very much wrong. The restaurant was clean and the menu explained perfectly well. What each option was. There is also a variety of Thai Indian and Chinese food at the restaurant. We stuck to Indian because that's what we wanted to try and I can confidently say I will be going back. Everything was fresh and extremely flavorful and if you are not into super spicy food, this is a perfect place to try and get food. Popular sauces are mango chutney, and tamarind. The mango lassi was perfect... all in all I can't wait to go back. read more

I had been wanting to try Tabla for a long time! The staff is so welcoming and Valentine sat me and got me set for a good meal. The menu is large and there are many options. They have a weekend Thali meal for 18.99 a person. They also have Weekday lunch platters that begin at $14! Starting on August 1st to Oct 31st they will offer Magical Dining at $30 a person. On my first visit I ordered Butter Chicken, Garlic Naan and Basmati Rice. I started the meal with a mango lassi. The mango lassi tasted so fresh and creamy. It was very filling as well! The Butter Chicken can be adjust to the heat that you enjoy. I asked for not spicy and it was perfect and so flavorful. The Garlic Naan was so nice to dip into the Butter Chicken. It was such a generous portion, I was able to pack the rest for home and another meal! Ayu and Valentine are very helpful and hospitable. I truly enjoyed my meal and look forward to the next time. With all the amazing choices and offers, I will definitely be back soon! read more

One of the better meals I had in Orlando. It was our last night in town and walked over here from our hotel. Service was accomodating and we got a seat at a spacious table, and the portions were huge for the price! We were basic and got the butter chicken/makhani and garlic naan, but it was very nicely done with a lot of flavor in the sauce and chicken that was not dry. There was plenty of garlic and flavor in the naan as well. I also had the goat biryani, which I was not as big a fan of. The flavor was also on point with this dish, but the goat was a little hard to eat and the meat was a little chewy and overcooked. Loved the portion size of this dish as well though, we had plenty of leftovers for another meal the next day. read more

We've been back here twice for the same meal. This Tabla, and there are five of them, has a vegetarian lunch special which is quite a bargain and obviously crave-worthy. We stopped in the first time as I was craving Indian food and we happened to be at Millennium Mall. It is only less than a ten-minute ride away. The lunch is multi-course with many choices of entrees for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians, all for the price of $14. I had the Paneer Tikka Masala as my main dish and hubby Saul had Vegetable Korma as his. Both beautifully presented platters included a small bowl of delicious soup, a well-seasoned and not-greasy samosa in a tamarind sauce, a large bowl of Jeera rice, two warm wedges of naan, and a dessert jamun. The ambiance is warm and comfortable and our service by Valentine was welcoming, friendly and efficient. read more

My all time favorite hobby: Trying new Indian restaurants This place did not disappoint! We came in after going to Epic Universe, and the place was pretty empty but they didn't seat us right away, instead they took my phone number and they called me 10-15 minutes later. They were very short staffed. We ordered our usual: Mango lassi Vegetable samosa Butter chicken Lamb korma Gobi manchurian Butter and garlic naan Lentil daal soup The food was mouth watering delicious, I kept eating even after I was full that's how good it was! Great place to try if you're in the Orlando area read more

We usually come for lunch and it is perfectly appropriate, the service is good, warm and prompt and we can return to work on a timely fashion.

What a WONDERFUL restaurant! While on a conference, we stopped by for lunch and could not be happier. It is beautiful inside, and the staff are equally incredible.

Stop what you're doing and go! This place is an absolute financial asset to your weekend plans. The star of the show? The Tandoori chicken, smokey, spiced perfection, and the surprisingly addictive, savory-sweets kick of the Manchurian chicken. Paired with fluffy, blistered garlic naan fresh from the oven, it's a dream but the secret ingredient is the sweet warmth of the staff and owner. It turns a meal into a moment read more

This was my first time to Tabla and my mom and I were impressed by the quality, freshness and flavor of the food and the amazing service. We shared the mixed grill and a garlic naan and this was so filling and satisfying. Each piece of meat was perfectly seasoned and cooked, and they each had their own flavor profiles. The naan came out piping hot and the garlic butter combo was SO GOOD. Will definitely be back again and would like to visit the other locations. read more

We tried the Spicy Guava, Aam Panna, Samosa Chaat, Vegetable Kadai, Garlic Naan, and Onion Kulcha--everything was flavorful and well-prepared. The service was a little slow, but we visited close to closing time, so that was understandable. Overall, we really enjoyed our meal and would recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. read more

Tabla Indian goes fast casual to my delight! I want to thank the owners and staff that came out to put together a delightful tasting experience for the Yelp Elite group of Orlando! With their newest location close to universal, this is sure to be a big hit for the organization. The fast casual side is done well inside the Clarion hotel and operates on the side where their fine dining location is. You'll find on the fast casual side a bar featuring Rupee beer and thoughtful wine list (seriously go check it out). In addition, they had some tasty mixed drinks to try (see my photos below). This location also has outdoor seating. My favorite was the courtyard area which provides a beautiful backdrop to enjoy tasty Tabla meals! My favorite was the fried summer roll which came with a spicy sauce that was so good and paired well with the Rupee beer! Sit back, relax and enjoy the comfort of Tabla Indian Restaurant! read more

Great Indian restaurant with multiple locations, this particular one is located within a hotel. While the hotel itself is fairly old and mildly dilapidated, the restaurant interior is nicely decorated and has a clean and classy vibe. We came right when it opened so we got seated right away, but it definitely got busy as the night went on. Regardless, the service was fantastic! Food came out quick and our waitress came by several times to check up on us. We started off with the samosas and then got butter chicken, lamb biryani, dal ghosht, and an order of roti. The spice-level of almost every dish can be adjusted to suit your taste. There's also a selection of other asian dishes, like general tso's and pad thai, for some variety. For dessert we got the rasmalai. All the food tasted great! Perhaps my only gripe was that the roti seemed a tad bit burnt/overcooked but it still tasted fine. Overall we had a great meal and definitely left feeling full! read more

I tried Tabla at a Yelp event and had to return for more. This beautiful restaurant is tucked away in a modest hotel. My friend and I initially went to the take away area and fortunately were directed to the restaurant that has a fine dining appearance with family friendly service. We were so appreciative that our server was kind enough to explain the different food options and how they were prepared. We ordered two entrees from the lunch menu which offered entrees from the kitchen and a buffet that included an appetizer, soup, sides and a dessert. This was a great way to try several items. I will definitely return for dinner as the flavors and the ambiance combined with the service makes this a perfect choice for any occasion. read more

Tabla restaurant serves delicious Indian food, as well as Chinese and Thai. Valentine's service was excellent.

We are in town for Asian American Hotel owners association conference at Orange County convention starting tomorrow thru Thursday and wanted hot Indian food so Yelp came to help. Restaurant is located in Clarion Hotel with enough parking in the back of the building. You have to walk in the entrance for near checking in desk area to get there. Ambiance is really great with lighted various type of booths and special seating area . I had read the review which mentioned how to get directions to it using Yelp map. They have bar coded menu which requires cellphone to get it but it was confusing for party of five so we asked for printed menus!! They have Indian popular curries Naans and sweet dishes along with Thai and others meat/ vegetables/ chicken etc. Service was excellent with order taking thru filling up water in glasses and waiting for any needs. Well dressed staff. Our Order of naan/ saag paneer/ and Malai kofta were tasty and delicious. read more
