Reviews
I've driven past Tadka several times but have never stopped in. Came in with a large party yesterday for dinner and was overall very impressed. I had the chicken buriyani, which was freshly made and baked with a naan bread topping. The portions are generous. They also had a nice kids menu, chicken tenders, noodles, sticky rice ect. Food was delicious and very flavorful. Everything was served in the most beautiful silver dishes. Service was absolutely amazing. If the waiters overheard we needed something, they brought it out immediately. If you're a mango fan, you'll love the mango lassi drink. Everyone in the group was impressed with the food and overall service. Large parking lot and easy to find.
Food is good, authentic Indian food. We went there for lunch and they had a buffet, which I'm not typically a fan of as I have food allergies and dietary restrictions. HOWEVER, the owner care up and walked me through ever dish on the buffet, explained what it was, how it was made and if it would be okay for me to eat. Wow! So awesome. She made me feel so at ease and not an inconvenience. That said, the food was delicious. I had a dal dish, rice, and and eggplant and potato dish. All outstanding. Service was terrific and they have ample space for large gatherings. I will be back.
Wow. I am so excited about this place. Our family has many dietary restrictions so finding any place that has a few gluten and dairy free options is difficult. We had many choices of entrées, tried five of them and loved each one. I wouldn't say it's the best Indian food I have ever had but it is definitely top five. What was even more impressive was the service. The wait staff were all very courteous, helpful, open to all of our questions about ingredients and very attentive. We also ran into the owner as we were Sitting outside on the patio and he seems like a very down to earth, hard-working and sincere man. Our family is very excited to eat the leftovers and to go back within the next week or two.
Tadka has such a huge menu not only on their Indian side, but equally for their Indo-Chinese menu. I love being able to try new dishes. I particularly love their Indo-Chinese options because there are not many places that offer this in the Columbus area, and a plus side is that they serve halal meat. I have dined inside their restaurant several times whether for a family dinner or as a guest at someone's part in their banquet side. I like to order for carry out as well. In their Indian menu, the malai kofta stood out for me. It was truly delicious. The murgh makhani (butter chicken) was tasty too. I did not care too much for the goat curry (I felt there was still a smell) nor the reshmi chicken kebab. On the Indo-Chinese side, my favorite is the chili chicken. If you don't like spicy, stay away from this dish. The mongolian chicken is delicious, but a little more on the sweeter side. Another favorite is the eggplant chili honey, I have never seen this dish anywhere else and it is truly unique and delicious. I wish they had an option to serve fried rice with these entrees for an up charge, but they only come with steamed rice. I order the fried rice separately because it completes the meal. We end up having left overs because the portions are big. One comment for carry out orders that I want to make to the restaurant is to please stop asking for credit card information over the phone. It is not safe nor fair to do. If I were to order online, I can obviously pay, but if I call to inquire about dishes and order via phone, please just wait until I get there to charge my card. You take our name and number for a reason.
