Amazing place for your Indian cravings. First time visiting Houston, and we got the paneer butter masala, side of rice, garlic naan, and crispy manchurian. Everything was wonderful. We went home and ate the leftovers for dinner. Inside the service is also pretty good. Nice people, warm and welcoming atmosphere. The tables were pretty clean and we didn't need a ressy to dine in. Would definitely try other items on their menu next time we visit. read more

This place had some highs and lows. It took a while for someone to acknowledge us and take our order at the front, which wasn't the best first impression. The food had good flavor, but it was much greasier than I'm used to for this cuisine. I also felt the portions could have been a bit larger considering the price, as it seemed expensive for what was served. read more

We were in the area (Houston Heights) and decided to stop by. We ordered the butter chicken (basic, I know lol), garlic naan, and chicken lollipops. The restaurant was very spacious and lots of seating. They also do catering! The service was quick & good, no complaints. The food came out pretty quick. Everything was surprisingly really delicious! Everything was flavorful and perfect. We will definitely come back here. read more

This was a good authentic Indian spot. Prices were pretty solid for the amounts and portions that you get. Several different street food options or bowl options for an authentic experience. I didn't too much like the butter chicken burger as it was just a slab of dipped butter, chicken with tomato and a huge onion slice about half an inch thick but overall it was okay. Would not get again. It also came with French fries and these were extremely basic from a frozen bag. Very dull. Unfortunately I didn't realize the burger came with fries and I additionally ordered loaded tikka masala fries so instead of it being a replacement for the fries with a burger I just had two huge orders of fries. Seemed like something that the person taking the order could've mentioned before I ordered it. Also had the lamb baryani, tikka masala and garlic naan. This was amazing! Tasted so good. Deep in flavor and of course spices The naan was amazing And everything came out really hot! You can smell the flavors and the spices when you walked into the restaurant. We'll definitely be back to try different things on the menu read more

So we tried to make Butter chicken at home. Fail! And it was late. We found Tumeric and Dashed it to the house. Great decision. Butter chicken was flavorful, Bullet and Garlic naan good and we added a flavor bomb Salt and Pepper Chicken. We are happy to have found a spot closer than Kathmandu that comes close to the same product. We will order from here again. read more

I absolutely love this place. They made me actually like Indian food. I tried other places and I could not get into it but I tried this place and can't get enough. I drive 30 minutes maybe 1x a week or every 2 weeks to come here. I usually get the garlic saag (chicken) or the vindaloo (veggie, chicken, or paneer). I tried all the different naans and I loved them all. FYI: the food is alittle more on spicier side read more

We were in the area and thought of trying this place out, however, we were really disappointed with our visit to this spot. Unfortunately, I had one of the worst chai that I ever had. It truly missed even the bare minimum mark. Our tea lacked both flavors and colors. Its full of some cheap milk and there's hardly any trace of actual tea leaf there. We mentioned it to one of their staff members, and got coffee instead. However, the coffee was same with no trace of coffee at all. We wanted to have samosas but learnt that samosas are outsourced and they just heat it up and serve. So, skipped that. It was the same outsourced for the burger and fries. Haka noodles was something that we liked, good portion size too. Chana masala was not good but still doable. The best part was their staff member who assisted us. She was very courteous. She apologized for the tea and when we asked for coffee, she didn't even charge again for that. She was also checking in between with us and everyone else on how's everything. Excellent service on her part. Unfortunately, the food was a total waste of money. read more

In the mood for Indian eats, YELP brought me here. We decided on takeout and ordered the following items: Butter Masala w/ Shrimp (7/10) Garlic Saag w/ Paneer (9/10) Cocktail Samosas (9/10) Chicken Biryani (9/10) Garlic Naan (7/10) Mango Lassi (10/10) Originally, we wanted lamb for the butter masala but they called us after we put in our order to inform they were sold out. So we switched to shrimp on it. The masala has a tomatoey flavor but lacks the heavy spices that I was expecting; it still is tasty and I would order it again but with another protein. The naan had some garlic flavor but was a bit cold after unwrapping it; probably need to heat it up next time. The rest of the dishes were pretty solid with the somosas and biryani being our favorites. The saag w/ paneer was tasty and thick. The rice that comes with the curries have spices and herbs mixed in which add to the flavor. Finally, the mango lassi is a delightful beverage/dessert. My girlfriend loved it to the last drop. I'm glad there's another indian option in the area that is perfect for take-out. We look forward to trying other items such as the korma and (hopefully) lamb curries. read more

Great fast casual Indian restaurant! Their chili paneer and garlic naan is FRESH and was still soft days after we ate. Probably my top place amongst Tarka and Masala Wok. read more

Turmeric Indian Cuisine - Chili Paneer - Indian Near Me - Houston, Texas

Ordered dash to hotel. The food was good. It had a great spice for my taste. Had the tikka with lamb. Wish they would cut the meat more and put more. The butter masala was too spicy for kids. Still good. Naan is typical. They do give enough rice which is welcomed as most others don't. Mango lemonade was no good. Didn't taste like lemonade and was sweet. read more

Want my money back but they're a community restaurant so I'm letting the lack of customer service slide. I tried the Green Karahi and it's so spicy I can't even eat it. The host said nothing about it being spicy or if I can select a level of spice. Happy to just go back to Tikka Masala with Basmati Rice. read more

I yearn for the paneer tikka tacos. This place would have been better if they had actual cutlery though. But food wise, it was great. read more

For this place to be named Turmeric everything was lacking spices and flavor. Overall it just seemed like all the amazing Indian spices you love when eating the cuisine were missing. Both the tikka masala and the "famous" butter chicken tasted the same with just one note of tomato. The bindi was very dry and not a stewed dish and lacked flavor. The garlic naan was good but one of our orders lacked the garlic naan seasoning. My roti was burnt. The samosas lacked flavor. Also they gave some cucumber side that just tasted like cucumbers and tomato's in oil and pepper. No vinegar or mint or anything. Overall very unsatisfying. read more

I am SO incredibly happy to have good Indian food in the area! Everything was really delicious. We got chicken 65, korma chicken, butter chicken, saag paneer, and garlic naan. It was all pretty bomb, but the korma and saag were true standouts. I can't not mention how tasty the chicken 65 also was, and while I personally prefer a little fluffier naan, it was deliciously garlicky. I was initially put off because they quoted 15-20 minutes for to go and then it took 55 minutes, but the food was absolutely stellar. I'll be giving them a lot of my money. read more

Turmeric Indian Cuisine - Clockwise: saag paneer (WOW), chicken 65 (yum), chicken korma (WOW), butter chicken (yum) - Indian Near Me - Houston, Texas

Food is amazing I could literally eat it every day. So flavorful with great portions. My favorite Indian restaurant by far I cannot recommend it enough!! read more

I have driven by this place multiple times and never knew they were so good! They are located below an apartment community. I tried the Dawali Butter Chicken and it comes with rice. The rice actually had a whole cinnamon stick in it. The rice was so flavorful!!! It seems like it was soaked in coconut milk instead of water. The butter chicken was not too spicy, it was very creamy and has packed with flavor. I ended up ordering a side of garlic naan bread and it was also tasty. The location is clean and the service was great. They have a takeout section where you can get utensils and also plates to go. They provide 2 hours of free parking validation. I will definitely come here again!! I highly recommend this place. The food was so good, I forgot to take a pic!! read more

I got this plates dining in, and Garlic Saag w/chicken to go. Expect to wait a bit while they cook the food for you, and is super clean kitchen! If you don't like super intense flavors, this place is for you. The creaminess was perfect in their plates, so as their amazing 5/5 RICE! Lamb Masala 4/5, The lamb was outstanding, The flavors were there but not intense. Garlic Saag with Chicken 4/5, Chicken and a lot of spinach presence in the plate, good flavors but not intense. Garlic Naan. 5/5, Very good!!!!! Mango Lassi. 4/5 Was very good.... I like it better when it tastes more to mango. read more

The food was good. The order of samosas was very late . We only received I believed 2-3 for $10. The picture displayed shows like 6-7. The parking in the garage had a free 2 hr parking but we still received a ticket in the mail. read more

What amazing food. I was surprised give the fast food appearance. Perhaps the best tikka masala I've ever had.

Pretty good option for Indian in the area. My favorite dish was the Chicken Lollipops. Ample and juicy chicken, with delicious spices. The Tikka Masala (lamb) was tasty as well (although it was a bit too spicy for me -- I wish they toned it down a bit or let you choose the level). I also really enjoyed the Hakka Noodles (an Indo-Chinese dish) with paneer. The biggest let down was probably the garlic naan. It barely tasted like garlic. I did appreciate that they had multiple naan flavors to choose from (including a sweet one). read more

This is strictly for their food and take out. Samosa: good, I've had better but will order again Paneer tikka masala: the paneer was soft and tender. Theres thick onion pieces packed with flavors Rice ( included): not your plain rice, its spiced and delicious Peshawari naan: mildly sweet and went perfect with the curry. I'm pleasantly surprised. The bar was not very high tbh for casual indian food. But it definitely changed my mind. We finished all of the food and I will definitely be back. read more

I stop here at this Indian restaurant below a mid-rise apts in The West End/Washington Corridor area and it was pretty good. I order chicken 65 and korma chicken and garlic naan. Both were very flavorful. read more

As many of my friends know, I have a deep love for Indian food, and during a recent visit to see a good friend in Houston, she treated me to a fantastic late lunch at this nice restaurant. The warm and inviting atmosphere, paired with the cleanliness of the space, immediately set a positive tone for the meal. The service was equally impressive the lady who assisted us was so friendly and attentive, which added a personal touch to the experience. The food? Simply outstanding! This place has officially won me over, and I'll definitely be returning on my next trip to Houston. If you love Indian food, this spot is a must-visit! Highly recommended! read more

The food is legitimately great but their front staff and overall service is absolutely horrendous. If you order takeout, it generally takes an additional 20-30 minutes from Whatever they estimate. Take-out orders are frequently missing items, so definitely check your bag. Generally, I would say as long as you tack on the additional time to their estimate and check your order, it's reliable good flavor. However, this time I arrived at my general 15 minutes after estimated pick up and sat about 5 minutes waiting for front staff to appear. She let me know the lamb biryani I ordered was out of stock, what would I like instead - 40 minutes after I ordered. That had happened once before and they called after I submitted my order to request substitution. When asked, she said they were too busy to have reached out. There is one table of two and there was one additional person waiting for food. Previous to this most recent experience, I would have said as long as you're prepared to wait for not all of your food, it's good. At this point, there are as good options that aren't this place and have absolutely no issues providing timely & correct food orders. read more

The Chettinadu Pepper Masala was awesome!! Served piping hot, spicy, and delicious. The jeera rice was also delicious. I recommend ordering a Masala Chai. It is Indian spiced milk tea, also served piping hot, and it's one of the best chai I have had in Houston. Service and portions were excellent, too. One of the few places in Houston with a nice, clean restroom that also smells good!! read more

This commercial spot has had quite a few different restaurants, and this one has been the best by far. We have ordered take out from here on more than one occasion. This is a solid spot for Indian food, which this general area has been lacking in this area of Houston. We will continue eating from here for the days we crave quick Indian food. read more

Food was good - fresh, well seasoned, easy to adapt/modify Ambiance/ expect a modern, efficient, upholstered eating environment Service is counter, but cashier is knowledgeable about flavor profiles and able to make suggestions according to your likes and dietary needs. read more

Some of the best Indian food I've ever had. Go inside and scan the QR for two hours of free parking. Don't let that throw you off. It's soooooo good!!! read more

This place might just be my new Indian takeout spot. Been here twice and both times the curries have been excellent. Got the Kadai and Garlic Saag and both were fantastic. Pickup experience and service at the counter has been great both times as well. My minor gripes are: 1. No built in spice level selection when ordering online. You have to add it in the comment section. Not a big deal but would be nice. 2. Naan is mediocre. I'm excited to try the other dishes. Other folks I went with had good things to say about the Chicken Tikka Burger and kebabs but I haven't tried them myself. read more

We normally LOVE tumeric. I've given 5 stars because they make the food spicy enough and they are fast. But today they took 45+ minutes despite only one other couple there. And then it wasn't spicy at all like it normally is. Really disappointed. We sent back the food and are looking for another Indian restaurant. read more

We were greeted by Loitha and she was wonderful. She helped with suggestions and was spot on. We tried different dishes and all were really good. The parking is good once you have experienced it and you learn how to get the code ETC. We have no doubt that we will return. read more

Wow, amazing food and flavors. I'll be back for the goat briyani and to try the street good.

The food, service and ambience were great. Especially enjoyed the Malai Kebab and Lamb Korma.

I've had better! The curries didn't have a lot of depth to me. It needed more love. The portion sizes are so small in comparison to the price. read more

Great new spot! Chicken korma with the garlic naan is my go-to, the portion size is great! You will have to wait a little while for the food to come out but it is worth it and so fresh! Parking in the connected garage is also complimentary for restaurant guests. read more

The food was good for the most part, except for the Lamb Biryani that had mostly fat and gristle and no meat. Also would not recommend the attitude of the girl who takes the orders. She has a bad attitude. Not open to questions or feedback. She talked back to me as if I don't understand Desi food and terminology. read more

yeah, this place was amazing. I really like the Indian food. The service was spectacular, our waiters were so nice. The food came out hot and taste and right now! The place the clean the place was clean, good lighting. I'd recommend anyone to go there if you enjoy Indian food. read more
