Tadka Indian Cuisine

"Favorite Indian restaurant on the island! Whenever we walk past this place there’s always a line out the door so today we decided to try it and we were not disappointed. First of all, 5 stars to the Samosa Chaat and the mango lassi. Haven’t had anything like the samosa chaat in the past - there were two samosas basically taking a bath in a mixture of flavors - Chana masala, chickpeas, yogurts, onions, etc. I’ll probs dream about this dish. Also I love mango lassis and this one was chef’s kiss, topped with some crushed pistachios. And 10 stars to our waiter, Veer! He’s the real mvp. 10/10 personality, hilarious, claps back at negative reviews, HERE. FOR. IT!"

"Food is delicious. I ordered chicken biryani and malai kofta with garlic naan. Biryani tastes good but makai kofta was not that great. Service was really quick and efficient. Portion sizes are really small compared to price."

"We were so lucky, we entered the restaurant and immediately sat down at the table without a reservation, after us people stood in line, usually there is always a line. My friend and I were delighted with the food, we enjoyed the delicious food so much! Everything we ordered was very tasty! The service is excellent! I recommend!"

"The food is really good. Taste is good and definitely feels fresh. I ordered samosa chat - Must try Chicken wings - average Chicken mint curry - Told extra spicy I recommend spicy if you love spicy food. Garlic naan - It was ok but I didn’t feel any garlic taste or smell. Over all definitely recommended place."

"I came twice in a week! this is a fantastic Indian restaurant (speaking as someone who has backpacked across India for 5 weeks eating the authentic stuff). the staff is friendly and attentive, the restaurant is cozy, and the food is amazing! there aren't many Indian options in Honolulu and this is now my favorite and best option. I had the Goan, Samosas, Chana Masala and Naan over the two visits. all the dishes were amazing and very authentic. ​​the veggie samosas were delicious with flaky, crispy homemade dough. The Goan and Chana Masala was delicious, the Naan perfectly light and airy. The dishes are very reasonable]y priced and the portions are very generous. I will definitely be coming back to try to the other menu items. Plenty of free parking too. If you like Indian food this restaurant dfinitely worth a try."
