Tandoor - Updated 2025, Indian Restaurant in New Haven, CT

About this restaurant

Better known as American Tandoor, Tandoor is an Indian restaurant that serves Indian cuisine in an American way. Present inside a mall, the restaurant offers a regular and a good happy hour menu. A notable dish on the menu is the lamb slider served with a decent amount of fries. Authentic spicy Indian food includes the Chicken Tikka served with Naan or rice and butter chicken. Potato samosas are also worth trying. The restaurant blends Indian cuisine with American preferences. An example of this is the pork vindaloo which has the same spices as the original vindaloo but has pork instead of chicken. For a south Indian experience, try American Tandoor�s dosas. Vegetarian dishes at the restaurant include palak paneer and tomato salad while mango lassi is available as refreshment.
