Tandoori Night - Fresno

We drove through Fresno on the way from the Sequoia National Park and drove to Yosemite. We have starved and on a narrow timeline tried to make it our rental house before darkness. Call in our order (they do not have an online order, while we buy for deliveries and get gas. The food was ready as promised, very well packed (although Styrofoam was used. They gave us a lot of food, and everything was delicious. The samosas that were better than most we had were eaten before we even made it to our house. We would come back if we ever did.

The food was really amazing, but the waitress we hadn't spoken too good English, and I was confused about what articles dairy products had, etc.

I love Indian food, it's probably one of my favorites. My mother stopped by her lunch one day and asked if she had vegan options for me. They then explained to her that they have a variety to choose from. With what is said, she brought her lunch speciality that came with a drink, 3 main dishes, rice, salad, Naan and Raita. The naan and raita are vegetarian not vegan and I let it enjoy for them. It was a ton of food so I couldn't eat it all in a session, but she said it just cost her around $10, which is just fantastic.

My waiter gave me the confidence to try several new dishes. So I tried the Vegetable Pakora appetizers. I decided to try the Mushroom Bhoona and ordered my favorite saag as the ducks. I love my saag level. I was in restaurants that insist that my saag contain at least one of the usual ingredients: Paneer, Aloo and sometimes Chana, which I then painfully get out of my saag. One of my Raw Food cookers, originally from India, had a organic restaurant. She told me why they committed me to trembling my saith. If that happens, I'll get up and never leave the restaurant. But in this restaurant my waiter had no problem submitting my request in place. The Vegetable Pakora first arrived. I really liked it. But it was the Tamarind Sauce and Green Chili Chutney who made the Pakora really excellent. When my husband came to a call to eat his Pakora, it was cold (he hates cold food). But my husband liked this cold Pakora so much, he always tried to ask me about it while he coughed it at once. He usually eats his food and maybe asks a question. But after he finished the Pakora, he immediately announced to reorder the Pakora during our next visit. The mushroom Bhoona and the saag came together. Both my husband and I were very impressed by these exotic flavors. When the rice arrived with the bhoona, we had eaten most bhoona and saag. My husband is a rice fan, so he can just sit and eat rice himself if necessary. I don't usually eat White Basmati Rice. Wild rice, brown or black rice. But when they broke out these basmati, I had to try. It had interesting spots of spices in it. After a bite I sat and ate half the plate with the rest of my saag. I mentioned my waiter how much I liked the Basmati. He explained all preparations that go into the production of this special rice dish. It was pretty impressive. And he seemed very pleased to hear that I liked it so much. I hope he shared my compliment with the kitchen. I liked the way our waiter kept a vigilant eye on our food needs when he came past our table. I noticed he didn't want to interrupt our dinner. But I knew if I saw his way, he would have come to our table if we needed something. This is for me the sign of a highly developed waiter. A trait I rarely see more in the restaurant waitstaff. At the end of our meal, our waiter offered us a free sample of Gulab Jamun Dessert. After he described what it was, I knew I didn't order it alone. But we still tried. My husband just grinned on me when I tasted this overly sweet dessert. He had observed my expression when I tasted him and offered me the other half of his rehearsal. He didn't come surprised when I told him that the next time we came, I would order the Gulab Jamun Dessert. I asked him how he knew I liked it. Obviously it was the ankle in my eyes when I took my first bite that gave it away. So until now it is obvious that we have already planned our return to this restaurant on our next trip to Fresno. Not only the food is very nice, but our waiter made an impression on me that I will not forget. That's why it's easy to forgive the little girl who went to my booth when I first sat and my husband was out on a call. She stole on an unusually large cracker who was in her hand. And for some strange reason she jumped in and sat down several minutes from me. She seemed completely unlikely for the difference between a customer and an extended family. It was so strange, it was almost cute. But that immediately tells me that this ruthless crew is family property. But what is really etched in my mind, in the last moments of this culinary experience, was the hectic attempt of the owner. Our waiter was not far behind the owner who ran into our car with my mobile phone charger base. It had fallen out of my bag in our stand. I'm so grateful to this gracious owner and waiter that he gave it back to me before we're gone. I would never have been able to complete my work projects, emails and text messages without my cell charger base. The sophisticated waiter skills of our waiter, combined with my saag accommodation and the desperate attempt of the owner to return my cell charger base, shows me that it does not happen to serve this restaurant such fine quality meals. This is the first time my husband and I plan our next visit to the APPETIZER course! So, for a high quality North Indian restaurant with excellent food and excellent service, I recommend you to make your first stop at Tandoori Night!

Awesome! Very friendly staff. Received great advice on what to order, as well as medical advice after mentioning that I'm a bariatric patient. Came at five on a Tuesday, no wait for seating. There was a wait for our food, but it was worth it! A little pricy $40 for two meals with only water to drink), but reasonable for specialty food, especially the large portions.
