Original Tandoori Kitchen

Glory and Tandoori at the Original Tandoori Kitchen Cold, Dark , Wet and Windy... This is the scene on February 21st as the OCC members congregate on the corner of 56th avenue in the cultural heart of Vancouvers east Indian community. Excitement builds as every second passes. We are greeted and shown to our table in a semi private room, the type of privacy usually reserved for hosting foreign dignitaries. As we await our last arriving members we get to know our first ever OCC guest (a working TV actor) over a few cold Kingfisher beers . Once fully assembled our team became an unstoppable engine of laughter and cheer. After placing our order and enjoying another round of cold kingfishers it became suddenly apparent at the lack of music which did affect the atmosphere score of 6.42, however they gladly did turn on the music when asked. The food flooded the table like the Mighty Ganges river during monsoon season, and it became immediately apparent that we were in for a treat. The food was prepared fabulously, a wonderful balance of heat and flavor earning a strong 7.82 for quality, with the Bombay fish being voted as the groups favorite dish. Throughout the feast our wonderful servers kept the kingfishers coming and tended to our every need granting them a score of 7.12 for service. As we struggled to finish every last morcel NEO ordered one last basket of butter Naan which felt like the perfect exclamation point to a sumptuous repast with NEO even saying that the Naan was some of the best he's had recently. As we settled our bill we were shocked at the incredible value of the banquet and beers we had just shared earning a score of 8.14 for value. In retrospect the poppadoms we had order did not ever arrive lowering the score for customer care to 6.34 . In conclusion we walked out into that cold dark and wet weather with our spirits warmed and heartened with another pleasant Indian dinning experience granting a overall score of 7.168 meeting the mark of official OCC approval ... Congratulations and Thank you to the Original Tandoori Kitchen!

The food here tastes homemade and full of flavor. The curries are rich without being too heavy, and the naan comes out fresh and warm. The staff are friendly and make you feel welcome right away. This is a solid choice if you want comforting Indian food.

I wanna thank all the staff, the servers and the cooks and the chefs for an outstanding birthday party on January 24 for my mom‘s 80th. It was amazing everything went smooth. The food was tasty no complaints thank you so much for a beautiful day for our family and friends.
