Awesome food ...go try you will like it..mix of cuisines
Food very tasty...But icecream quantity is very low.....
The best Tandoori chicken compared to any of the big guns in the city.. Excellent portion size.. N superb taste
Amazing kàati rolls and for 100rs Wil definetly order more value for money and sufficient quantity.....tnq Tandoor for bringing the taste of Kolkata
The curry everything was yummy...but there is only two pieces of paneer in a Palak paneer and butter naan combo. Only two!😀
Zomato and Swggie not delivery in tripunithura area...please do the needful...Thank you...
Tandoori chicken was awesome and the pudding delicious 😋 .Packing was perfect 👌
We visited the restaurant for dinner. Service is amazing. Staff and manager are very polite and friendly. No doubt, all dishes we tried,were delicious. Would definitely recommend. :)
I would love to get the recipe of pepper mutton fry it's the best dish I have eaten
One of the oldest north Indian food places in the city. Tandoor has been a name that has been ringing bells since I can remember. It served the most authentic north indian food back in the days. Still it upholds the tradition and serves mouth watering food. I cannot even count or remember the number of times that I have eaten from here. My go to dishes are Butter Naan, Butter chicken and Tandoori chicken. Even after all this time and after so many north indian restaurants have popped up, I would say that they still serve the best Tandoori chicken in town. If you havent visited this place yet, please do try as you are missing out on an integral part of Kochi's food history.
Lovely Ambience and crowd. No parking. Great food and good service. A bit on the expensive side.
Got masala Pappad. Kadhai Chicken. Paneer. And roti and naan.
They can work on their packaging skills.
Must Try Dishes -
Pepper Chicken (Served with thick spicy gravy)
Pepper Mutton (Served with thick spicy gravy)
Rumali Roti
Butter Naan
All 4 makes great combo!
Nice place for a north indian meal.The butter Naan and butter chicken is a must try from this place.the gravy of the butter chicken had the right amount of sweet and spice and the chicken was soft and tender.The ghee rice we ordered was bland and could have been better
One of my favourite place for North Indian dishes. Good ambience and car parking. Their butter naan, butter chicken, kadai chicken, Tandoori chicken are my favourites. You get full and half portions of the curries. In soups you must definitely try out the Manchow soup..it's yummy.
The best kadai chicken in town... Ambience is really great... Hot grape juice is a must try... Tandoor has always been my fav since my childhood... If u r a north Indian food lover then this is then right place.. A great place to dine out will family.. Good parking facilities too
All the dishes I ordered were good. Loved the Andhra chicken roast & Paneer Khathi roll. Chicken was really yummy. Mutter palak could have been better. Jeera rice was tasty. Overall it was satisfying.
One of the oldest restaurants in kochi. Have been going there for years. Food is just amazing, be it Chinese or North Indian cuisine. Would definitely suggest this place to everyone.
My all time favourite restaurant in Kochi...this place never disappoints me....absolutely love their chicken sagwala lip smacking taste ...you will definitely come back to try this again. ..do try their kulfi it's really good. ..love the ambience. ..you must try this place if you are around.
Very good food tasty tandoori chicken you should taste Kadai paneer
Me and my family had a party there it was epic the staff service is fantastic
I love there kadai panner,kadak roti & fried rice is always same taste as it was when I use to have in my childhood.No one can bit there kadak roti in Cochin it's same as we gets in Delhi😍

Review No 441:
Tandoor has been adoring the lane near Kalyan Silks (close to the Durbar Hall) for as far as I can remember. We had a family lunch sit down here after eons.
Ambience: The place has been through its fair bit of touch ups over the years and looks welcoming. I could not fathom why you would have the same cartoon picture of a Sardarji across the walls. Putting pictures of the fields of the Northern belt, faces etc could have been more apt. My 2 cents. The seating was comfortable.
What did we order: Tandoori Chicken, Chicken Roast, Butter Naan’s, Paneer Butter Masala and Jeera Rice? It’s always a pleasure to find a good decent north Indian cuisine place when we travel. From the cooking of the meat to the usage of spices in the curries, the chef did work up a good meal for us to forget that we were actually sitting in Cochin.
Oh did i mention that the plates were kept on our table very warm and the serving dishes too were in line with the northern part of our country.
Service: There were only 3 guests in the place in the afternoon besides our pack. The Service was attentive. I would love to see how they react to a full house situation.
Price: Apt for the location, food and service.

Great authentic food. Nice menu but little expensive. The food is almost worth the cost and can definitely fill you up. They have good starters and snacks too. Pop in if you're in the neighborhood
Really good place.
Have only been there for dinners.
Used to be a go to dinner place few years ago.
Very good service.
Good food. Lovely setup.
Butter chicken and butter naan are my favorites.
Best restaurant to have tandoori and Kadai items (veg or non veg) in ernakulam... Nice ambience to have dinner with family and service is also good..........
Great place to go with friends or family for North Indian food.....
Must taste dal tadka and butter chicken masala...and not to forget their yummy chaat preparation...
still one of the best,i went to tandoor recently without much expectations but the experience was really one of the best in terms of quality and taste of food served.The tandoori items,naan,fried rice & chicken kadai all tasted really good .
Great food. Love to come here every now and then. In love with their butter chicken. Bit on the expensive side though. But the food's worth it.
Great explosion to taste buds is guaranteed on having food from this place.....apart from the authentic flavours of North India that is well served, the American crispy chopsuey is a personal favourite . # great ambience #great hospitality #all in all good family dine out experience available
Reached around 7 pm for a early dinner after shopping. Ordered mushroom and chicken soup, must say, the soup was comforting. The mutton curry was rich with right amount of spiciness to tickle the tastebuds. Been here after a long time, yet there was no downside to either their service or food.
Leave it to Lakshmi Aunty to make sure this place is still the same as it was from before..
The Food is still as great as it used to be. Definite must.
Their butter chicken was soo nice.. My friend ordered the half portion. I was wondering what that was all about until I saw the portion size. The half portion was too big for the both of us.
The bread they gave with it was a bit off.. I could taste the dough literally.. They delivered the food really quickly.
Authentic South Indian chicken pepper fry...a must dry dish..the restaurant has been maintaining it's quality for several years. One of the first restaurants to serve north Indian food in Kochi.. the American chopseuy is also a must try
The tandoori chicken was really good, in fact we ordered it again. But other dishes and nan were not good. The restaurant is not crowded, staff are friendly, there is enough parking space and will get your food within a reasonable time. I will recommend this hotel only for tandoori items (which is very good).
I recall dining in from this outlet maybe 10 years back while I was pursuing my engineering degree at cochin .That time I had this punjabi thali and man I must say it was mesmerising.
With those tingling taste buds we had sisters day out today for lunch since we were around that street ,I suggested this place .Butter chicken which is one dish known for its signature taste ended up being a disaster. Our tummy n taste buds were super numb wen we had the first bite .Butter Naan was buttery ,felt a homely feeling while eating it since our mom makes Naan back home .Veg pulao was good with a bit of sweet taste due to sautéed raisins ..with fried potatoes peas and carrots along with soft paneer with aroma of spices .We tried a different dishes under Chinese chicken salt and pepper which was outstanding :)

Excellent service and just to die for food. The perfect family set up. Alot of options to choose from. Once you've been there, the tastes just entice you and keep you craving until you're back again. Keeping true to their name, tandoori is a must have. They do not disappoint.
Went with family. My uncle has been a visitor here for many years. Loved the ambience. Just cozy and the food is amazing. Perfectly soft roti and yummy kulchas. The paneer dishes were amazing. Just tandoori. Would visit again
The best tandoor...soo delicious
I visit there often.The ambience at tandoor attracts me a lot
The 'paneer butter masala' and 'butter naan' the best combi.
Aloo fry is also good
Tandoor chicken is perfectly cooked.
Not much expensive, quantity is good,staff is customer friendly 👍
Been going here for years. Good service and yummy food. Although this time around they served soggy pappad for masala pappad which was disappointing.
Super friendly staff and sumptuous and tasty lunch is what this place gave me, and boy, was it everything I asked for! Everything from the butter chicken to the Shahid chicken, which has a hint of sweetness in it, to the roti was tasty. I washed it down with some lemon soda which worked perfectly. All in all I'd recommend this place to anyone.
I guess this is one of the oldest restaurants in Kochi. I've noticed that they have remained consistent with the quality and quantity.
Been here with friends yesterday and had butter nan, chicken fried rice, chicken chimapuri, a mixed raitha, watermelon juice and lime juice. The food was tasty, as always, though the watermelon juice didn't taste good. Service is really warm! I felt the pricing is lil too high.
Ambience and decor is also decent.
Quite surprising that I've missed out this place, been coming to this place for more than 15 years . And always it's butter Nan and boneless Kadai Chicken, Tangri Kebab, Tandoori chicken. It's a sense of nostalgia and the taste of kadai chicken (that has not changed for so many years) which is very good that makes me go to this place. Good work.
Tandoor. The name is known to every foodie in Koch!
As the name suggest a really great place to get some tandoori food in the heart of kochi. The butter chicken here tastes just fabulous. Paneer butter masala, rotti items are another delight. The ambience really gives a positive vibe to that foodie in you. Filled with portraits on all walls that makes you want to stare at them till your food arrives, speaking of which the food was never late and never dissapointed with the service. Every employee have that warm smile that makes your food taste even better.
Amazing food! I have been going to Tandoor for at least 15-20 years now and the kadai chicken still tastes the same. The consistency with which they have managed to maintain the food quality is commendable. A big kadai chicken and butter naan fan. Also if you get a chance to go to the chillies restaurant on the first floor, please do order the famous Andhra meals and mutton pepper fry there!
The food here is good and the price is a bit high .but the ambience is really good. Best for family dine. People over here are really nice ...
It is an amazing restaurant. The service was excellent. The food was amazing and delicious. I love the food. I recommend it . It stays open late. It was amazing
This is one of the best places in Cochin to have Tandoori food. Their kadai chicken and butter naan is famous for melting in the mouth. The place has a lot of history. It's been a couple of years or more since I last went there. Added to my visit list.

I haven't tasted any non veg items here. But few vegetarian items. All North Indian dishes taste really gud here. All kind of rotis are really yummy. Also good seating that provides privacy to each table. After all, even if u r too late for ur dinner, Tandoor stays open 4 u even if all others are closed.
I love this place. We usually order the butter naan. Kadai chicken/ dal tadka and tandoori chicken. Kadai chicken is quite pricey. So I prefer having dal. The tandoori chicken is well done and tastes amazing. Lassi also is good but only if you're lucky.
One of the oldest restaurants in city,started way back in 1974... walls adorned by pictures of bollywood stars... parking was not an issue...
Went there with family and ordered chicken tikka,battura and half tandoori...
Tandoori was okay type... tandoori tasted better in sait de dhaba in banarjee road...
Battura and chicken tikka was awsome... it has the north indian flavour to it... service was quick and the waiter was quite informative and went in detail to explain about the food..
Expected a lot from the place but disappointed a bit, battura and tikka saved the day
Ambience 4/5
Taste 3.5/5
Service 5/5
Good indian food - hyderabadi biriyani is good , however not a fan of the chinese food ... even butter chicken was good.. i dont hate it - i done love it either - its OK.
This place will not fail you. Ever. One of the oldest restaurants in the city. Its probably because of the consistency in taste and service that the place has managed to stay afloat so long. It is a bit towards the costlier side according to cochin standards. They have 3 restaurants in the same building. Ambience of the 2 restaurants below is bollywoodish and elegant at the same time. The restaurant above is typical of any Andhra restaurant like the Anjappars. Onto the food, kadhai chicken is their speciality and a must try. A good combination would be kadhai chicken n appam/butternan. The chilly chicken is good too. Tandoori chicken, chicken pepper fry and butter chicken are also a must try. The vegetarians must try their crispy veg fry, paneer kadhai and veg balti. Caramel pudding is overpriced for the quantity they serve, but sometimes certain things just become a habit and so I end up ordering it whenever we go. A 3 course meal for two would cost about 1000rs. Kid friendly, group friendly and a great place to go with family.
Oldest north Indian restaurant in Kochi with slight South indian flavours. Would go with all time favourite karahi chicken. Caution actually served in utensil used for cooking so piping hot.
Ambience: Good , U can hear Bollywood songs playing on background ( Mix of both old and new bollywood movie songs).There are also pictures of 1970's Bollywood film actors on the walls.
Price : Decent pricing
Service: Since we went there on Sunday noon it was kind of peak time for them so we had to wait for a long time for a server to come and take our order apart from their service was decent ...
Taste : We ordered masala papad ,rumali rotti,pepper chicken and butter chicken . The papad was crispy and it had a spicy topping of onion and tomato, it was a good starter to start with. Then we moved on to the pepper chicken fry it tasted different from all other pepper chicken that I have had before, it had a good rich spicy masala mix all over and it tasted yummy so if u like spicy food it's a must try item there... Then we moved on to butter chicken and rotti .... the butter chicken had a rich creamy gravy and the rotti was really soft ,it was delicious
So if you want to take your family out for a lunch or dinner I would recommend this place.
Their Butter Chicken is the best I've had in kochi... Maybe slightly expensive. Moreover the ambience is good, whether u go with friends or family, u'll like the place, car parking is little difficult at times
Love the food here. Its just the prefect balance between the price , quantity and quality. Love the fact they play old Hindi songs in there . Only -ve is its kinda dark inside.
Checked in with lot of expectations seeing the reviews and has to say they have not disappointed:had chicken biryani 'paneer kadai and garlic kulcha . Paneer was superb and rotis too. Biryani was ok good to eat but not upto expectation. Would suggest to try rotis and their veg/non veg curries its awesome specially their kadai items
Have been to this place so many times the last 15+ years so much so that it has become a family tradition and we order the kadai dishes everytime we visit. Kadai paneer and butter naan are highly recommended! The kulfi and grasshopper ice cream are also worth trying.
Tandoor used to be a big favorite for me when it comes to North Indian restaurants back in the day. And the reasons for the same were always aplently. Great quantities, reasonable prices, and delicious dishes. For the most part, this restaurant has remained quite the same, although the quality of their food seems to have gone down considerably of late. It's possible that the management & staff have lost interest in keeping up their standards considering just how long this restaurant has been operating.
Still the best place to throw a big lunch/dinner for a group without burning a hole in your wallet, I think if you go with one of their signature dishes like the Kadai Chicken.
Ambience of this old restaurant is lovely, with paintings of yesteryear hindi actors adorning the walls, complimented by music from their era. And those gold color drinking glasses which later became standard across most upscale restaurants. Perhaps one of the first restaurants in Cochin to introduce finger bowls too, service at Tandoor has always been pleasant, although it becomes a little difficult to catch a hold of someone from the staff during peak hours.
Would definitely not mind revisiting this place, if nothing else, for all the memories of a time gone by. :)
I have been to tandoor many times but never had a chance to try their chicken biriyani but this time we made a point to try one must say it was really nice in terms of taste, but it could be more nice if they avoid thier rice from being little bit sticky
We tried the Butter chicken, Butter Naan with Chicken Lollipop. Everything was really good, had been butter chicken for a while, and it was the right choice to try it here. It was flavourful, the quantity was good. The staff is welcoming, the service is great. The ambience & the music gives you a vintage touch.
Overall I loved the experience.
The culinary experience at this establishment was undeniably fantastic. We indulged in a delightful array of dishes that left our taste buds thoroughly satisfied. The extensive menu showcased a tantalizing assortment of options, each promising a unique and delectable journey for the palate.
From the moment we placed our orders, it was evident that the culinary expertise here was top-notch. The flavors that graced our taste buds were nothing short of exquisite. Every dish was a testament to the chef's dedication to creating memorable dining experiences.
The crowning jewel of our meal was undoubtedly the gulabjamun, a traditional Indian dessert. It was a flawless conclusion to our gastronomic adventure. The gulabjamun was a sublime combination of sweetness and texture, perfectly encapsulating the essence of this beloved dessert.
In conclusion, our visit to this establishment was a culinary delight. The diverse and mouthwatering menu offerings, coupled with impeccable execution, left an indelible impression. And, of course, the gulabjamun was the icing on the cake, a testament to the culinary excellence that this place embodies. We left with contented hearts and satisfied palates, eager to return for another unforgettable dining experience.
The food was just average. The sweet corn chicken soup was good, but corn ,which gives a special taste to it was really less.,but it was served really hot,which was great.Tried the roti and kadai chicken. However found the curry was a bit spicy, which didn't let us enjoy the taste. Tried the tandoori chicken also,which was also good with a nice flavour... The service is really good and the ambience is also nice. The dish too is served super hot in live kadai. However found the dishes were a bit overpriced.
Absolutely fantastic. Dark, elegant dining room. Fast friendly service. The food? Absolutely delicious. I highly recommend the mutton curries.
Best Mutton Fry and Tandoori! Great Masala Chai! I do not normally give good reviews, but I have say. Highly recommend the food was awesome, great staff and parking is available. Coming back tomorrow!
Wonderful food and great prices. The Paratha is delicious, the chicken korma spectacular. The portions are huge, I ate all of this food but it is enough for two people, I was completely full after it. Workers are nice and they do great recommendations on what to order.
Tasty foods and good atmosphere. The restaurant seems popular, but international credit card wasn’t acceptable.

A great place for eating out with family. Highly varied cuisine. Must try their North Indian dishes like Kulcha, Chicken Kathi Rolls and Paratha. Parking space is available in an adjacent lane.
We had our lunch on the first floor of the restaurant where they served the lavish Andhra meals. The service was super quick and the dishes were awesome, even more so for someone who had been missing this for more than 5 years..!!! So anyone who is in Kerala, in and around Ernakulam/Kochi and wants to eat Andhra meals, do drive here, you will not be disappointed with their lunch spread served in traditional banana leaf.!
We also had pepper chicken but couldn't complete that fully as the lunch itself was too good and it's unlimited.!
And there was freshly cooked jilebi and gulab jamun for very reasonable price.
We also took a takeaway of the lunch menu, and it was packed well in tight containers.
Overall, I was happy with the telugu lunch at the restaurant and would visit it once more while we are in that area.
Parking is minimal. Gave one star less for atmosphere is because it was over crowded when we were there.
Forever favourite dinner spot for some amazing Kadai Chicken & Tandoori Naan.
Been a regular customer for years and never disappointed. Usually go here for dinner with family.
Parking space available. And good customer service.
Have and Would definitely recommend 💯💯
Chilies located on the first floor of Tandoor serve Andhra cuisines.
We tried their Andhra veg thali and fish curry meals.
Despite the fact that the pricing was a bit higher than average, their food was tasty and of good quality, especially having rice mixed with ghee and gun powder chutney.
Good service and was absolutely a scrumptious treat. Mutton handi didn't have fleshy meat and all the 4 pieces were mostly bony. Both gulab jamun and caramel custard were an average.
Nice restaurant, good food, they only serve meals at first floor, the place had very few Keralaites, they were limited to the ground floor.
Andhra meals was nice and authentic.
Other items in the menu were also good but Mutton could have tasted better.
After searching for Andhra meals around kochi got to know about this place in YouTube and visited this one finally.
Went there on Sunday night after 9pm and half of the restaurant at 1st floor is empty and waited for 10min to get attended, veg Andhra meals priced 181 on menu has been served on banana leaf with dal podi, pickles...
Dal, sambar, brinjal fry, chutney and rasam.
Payasam also given as part of meal.
Dal podi, ghee, chutney with hot rice is just wow.
Other items also tasted and they're good. Ordered and.tasted gulab jamun which is okay.
Prices are bit high, ambience and service is ok.
I felt satisfied visiting and having food in this visit.
The best option for Andra meals. The service is good and hospitality is great. You will find parking very close to the restaurant. The restaurant serve you authentic Andra non veg and veg dishes. We tried chicken item only, heard that mutton items are also a definitely try one. The highlight was the resam they served with the meals.
