The food was delightfully tasty, India spices and burst of flavors were so good. That was my first time there with my family for my husband's birthday. Staff did not disappoint. They were professional, friendly, and fine. We even danced with other people at their restaurant. We definitely are coming back one of our favorite spots right now I would highly recommend. The atmosphere was great and also easy parking. read more

I was excited to try a new Indian spot. The garlic naan was delicious! The Korma had good flavors unfortunately the lamb was overcooked and chewy. The menu showed $19 for chicken or lamb I thought it might be an upcharge for the lamb but $33 was riduculous. I thought it would be melt in your mouth but it was not. We picked it up, staff were friendly. Inside was festive and fun feel. read more

The team decided to choose Tumeric as the choice for our work dinner. There was about a dozen or so of us. Tumeric easily handled the large group. We started with several different appetizers and passed those along. Each item was pretty tasty. We then ordered our main course. I order the butter chicken. Overall, it was good. But I ordered it as a medium spice and it came out mild. A little disappointed by the lack of heat, but I did enjoy the taste. Good service and appreciate them being able to serve us effectively. read more

The space is attractive inside with a beautiful outdoor patio as well. Full, capable service, cloth napkins, and delicious food. I wandered in for lunch one day and was pleased with everything. I will be back! The dining area is anchored on one side by the full bar with inventive cocktails. read more

BF and I are huge fans of Indian food and were curious about Turmeric ever since it opened. I was also very sad about Mykonos closing, so we postponed our visit. Finally we found ourselves in the area and decided to just do it and stop for a meal. We tried their veggie chilly momos and found them good, but not spectacular. They felt like a pre-made item with a sauce addition. BF had the korma entree and enjoyed it very much, although we did note that all the sauces were slightly different than what we normally have had. This might be a regional difference and didn't take anything away from the flavor profiles. My malai kofta was also very good, just with a different sauce. The menu is a little all over the place and the drink menu has some just plain odd combinations on offer. But the service was warm and friendly and the atmosphere was cheery. read more

The Vindaloo curry lamb dish was delicious with the spice level I requested, the fragrant basmati rice was excellent and the garlic naan bread was a perfect complement to the dish. I also enjoyed the lentil soup on a cold evening in Milwaukee. Akshay, my waiter was kind and responsive. I enjoyed the experience. The dining tables are getting a little beat up but that didn't spoil my meal. read more

I used to come here when it was a Greek diner. The layout of the building is the same but the decor is bright and cheery. The sign outside says there's a lunch buffet. The buffet is available from 11-2. I was there later so I ordered off the menu. I was hungry and the reviews recommended the naan. I got the butter chicken which was delicious, with plenty of sauce to mop up with the naan. It was made with tandoori chicken that would probably be pretty good on its own. The naan was superlative--pillowy and buttery. Portions were generous. Service was friendly and there were cricket matches on TV. I was there at a quiet time of day but I saw some people come in to order takeout. Hopefully word of mouth gets around. read more

This used to be a fun Greek greasy spoon. Now it is transformed into a really lovely Indian restaurant. But one where there is a beautiful fully stocked bar and the ability to watch cricket matches while you dine. I imagine this is what a mom would dish up for the kids but with a fancy flair. Everything is beautifully prepared and full of flavor. And the naan was pillowy soft - I will be thinking of their naan for a long time. The presentation of the gulab jamun was perfect, with a dusting of coconut on top. Hubby enjoyed falooda with ice cream. I want that next time. Very nice staff - we will be back. read more

I don't understand how the rating is so high. The tikka masala sauce was weirdly sweet, and the paneer didn't have a great texture. The garlic naan was pretty good. Despite it being nearly empty, the service was not very attentive (had to ask a different server for a water refill). I would eat elsewhere. read more

Delicious!! We ordered take out which was super quick. The chicken tikki masala with medium spice was the perfect amount of heat. And the garlic naan had a great char on it. Would definitely recommend and go back. read more

Came in for the all you can eat Lunch Buffer from 11AM-2PM. The service was kind and the food was pretty good. The Chicken Tikka Masala was a bit on the sweeter side, but still enjoyable. The service even asked me if I would like anymore food before they packed up, which was very considerate. The bathroom and overall place was very clean. For $16, all you can eat, this was a good deal. read more

We were both craving Indian and this place popped up as recommended. I was very satisfied with our meal, it had great tastes and smells. Our waiter was really friendly, he was quick to sit us and kept an eye on us. If we lived in Milwaukee, I think this would become our default Indian restaurant. read more

my mom & i got takeout from here yesterday for the first time; yesterday + today they are celebrating their one year anniversary with 25% off your order, which was perfect timing since we just found out about the place! we got the fried cauliflower to share (it was AMAZING. didn't taste gross/deep fried in the slightest, it was perfect!), and she got the chicken tikka masala while i got the lamb korma. the portion sizes are great, (the pictures i attached are our leftovers, ate all of the fried cauliflower and have tons of food for the next day or two!) some of the best indian food i've had, and the customer service while placing the order and picking up were incredible! we placed the order ahead of time, and while i was on my way to pick up they even gave my mom a call to let her know it was hot & ready! we had a busy day so we were unable to sit down to eat, but the inside of the restaurant looked great as well! 10/10 recommend!!! read more

Food ok, staff was hospitable. Bangladeshi owned, that's why some of the items esp from north India not up to mark(tikka masala, samosa).

Going to Turmeric Indian Cafe since it opened. Good food & great service. But very disappointed that they were tolerating Vaping at the bar located in the center of the restaurant. My wife has respiratory issues making uncomfortable and unable to enjoy/ finish her meal. We won't be back. read more

Colorful little place with a bar and about 20 small tables indoors. I had great expectations after reading reviews and the website menu. We arrived midafternoon, while they were taking down the noon buffet. Reality did not live up to expectations. The paper menu was different than that on the web. I've had many potato dishes at Indian restaurants but never one that was French fries drenched in a sweet chili sauce. The dal was good. I ordered a beer and was served a different kind than what was in the menu. read more

Go there for food, not for good Indian food. We went because it was 4.8 stars on Google Maps. I was surprised that it is not even worth 2 stars. Our first order of Momos was smelling, it was at least a couple of days old. Honey Chilli Potato was soggy and neither crispy nor spicy. Malai Kofta was made of Besan and not Chenna/Paneer. Also, for the price the portion was very little. Paneeer was made by a kindergarten kid, basic gravy + paneer cubes. And, Malabar Paratha was frozen paratha, just heated (that too not well). I'd never go back there, even if it is free food. read more

Tried this place on a whim one Friday night and was pleasantly surprised. The staff were super friendly and the atmosphere was fun with a colorful interior and Indian sports and series on TV. Everything we ordered was delicious and the garlic naan did not disappoint. read more

This is hands down the best Indian we've had in town! From the samosas to the cauliflower appetizer to the curries, we loved it all! It's also special to see that they have an Indian twist on traditional cocktails with unique spices and flavors. I tried the whiskey sour one and it was so delicious! The staff is so kind and attentive. They saw us eying up the lassis during the meal and provided us a couple free samples at the end. We will definitely be back, and then back again and again! Great job!! read more

I love this place!! If you haven't tried their cocktails it is an absolute must!!! Game Changer!!! we tried the chicken samosas....those were the best I have had ever! So much flavor!!!! Butter chicken was amazing too! Highly recommend the paneer naan delicious the service was so great and in the inside was so beautiful. It's perfectly located in the heart downtown. There is free parking for customers only. I will definitely be coming back if I'm in Milwaukee. Love love love read more

The food wasn't bad, but it was underflavored. Perhaps dialing it back too much anticipating that more authentic wouldn't work for most Americans? The poori was incredibly overpriced, and too dense. The best thing was the Vindaloo, although it should have been spicier. read more

Such a warm, inviting, festive ambiance--ideal for some gloomy midwestern evenings, but perfect on a sunny day too. Staff is kind, friendly, and considerate. I came frequently for lunch buffet or dinner during a long stay in the city. The range of flavors is colorful and nan is unique, sincerely with perfect combination of soft and crunchy layers. Always felt like smiling as I tasted their food and experienced their environment. read more

The server took good care of us, the food was good, and the price was affordable. Will definitely visit again.

Really yummy. Loved the saag paneer! We got takeout but want to go back to dine in because it was very cute inside.

Went for the lunch buffet. This was the smallest buffet ever. Two veg, two non-veg, rice and naan. The food was ok but not great for the price. read more
