I’m touring the Chicagoland area for Indian food. After reading the reviews on Google Maps and Yelp, I’ve landing on Tandoori House Indian Cuisine in the Tinley Park neighborhood. It’s my first time trying Indian food, and Tandoori House did not disappoint.

Tucked away in a modest Tinley Park strip mall, Tandoori House Indian Cuisine offers more than meets the eye. You step inside to find a cozy, welcoming atmosphere where rich culture and comfort meet. It’s the kind of hidden gem that invites you to slow down and truly enjoy the moment.

Upon arrival, you must stand in the same line as the patrons getting carry-out orders. I can imagine depending on the day of the week and time of day, this can be a very slow process. We arrived on a Saturday night around 7pm, and waited about 20 minutes to be seated. The clerk at the desk was handling multiple tasks. Once seated, we were able to order right away, however the food did take a while to come out, approximately 20 minutes before our appetizer arrived.

I checked out the menu before arriving, and had an idea of what I wanted. Thankfully the menus explained all the ingredients for each course, and our hostess asked for our spice level preference.

Since it was my first time eating Indian food, I looked for foods that were different, but familiar. Everything was delicious and flavorful. The portion sizes are huge. I had left overs for two days! Whether you’re a longtime fan of Indian cuisine or just exploring something new, Tandoori House offers a warm and inviting space that feels like a home away from home.
