Sizzling Tandoor Uptown - Victoria

Sizzling tandor at uptown is guaranteed the number 1 Indian cuisine in BC. The spinach paneer is the best I have ever had in all of my travels.

I can't help praise the wonderful evening my friend and I had! We had reservations at 8pm and were promptly directed to a lovely spot. Lovely light music and fine dining! We ordered chicken biryani and palak curry with lacha paratha and tomato soup. YUM!!! Also tried Indian famous Kingfisher beer, again sturdy good! But we skipped main course cuz we ain't so fond of that. MUST try. And yea the veggie pakoras with green chutney are equally heaven. Ultimately, we had an amazing evening of laughter, conversation and some of the best food on the island : thank you Sizzling Tandoor : and yes, lovely courteous service as well : . Remarkable !!!

Sunday night, 6 pm, me and 9 of my friends. No problem for this place! We got top notch service, piping hot dishes spiced to please everyone. Meat dishes were amazing as previous reviewers stated large moist chunks of meat. Great tandoori chicken too; the real deal! All dishes were uniquely flavoured. Owner thanked us personally for our business. We had more food than we could eat and price was very reasonable at $25 per person include a big fat gratuity for the good service. My group will be back!

We went right when they opened at 10:59am haha. First ones there so of course the food was fresh. We had the lunch buffet. Naan bread was absolutely delicious and always made right to order by the basket. Decent selection of dishes, not too spicy. Moist meat, not dry at all. Not a fan of the carrot pudding. Halfway through people started rolling in table after table, for the lunch rush. Was super busy by the time we finished, so that must be a good sign. I would recommend for someone to try it out, but I won't be going back for buffet as the food is way too heavy for me personally, and I ate way too much : for 13 dollars though it was well worth the full belly.

Food is nice, but the rice portions are inadequate to say the least. I guess this is how they make money.
