Outstanding North Indian Flavors — Especially the Mutton Tandoor truly impressed me, especially with dishes that are notoriously hard to get right in the U.S. If you’re someone who genuinely knows and appreciates authentic Indian flavors, this place stands out. I tried the mutton korma, chicken malai boti kebab, and grabbed some chai to go—and the mutton korma alone is worth the visit. I can confidently say this is the best mutton curry I’ve had in a long time in the U.S., and trust me, I’ve had mutton at hundreds of places over the years. The flavor instantly reminded me of authentic preparations you’d find in certain parts of India—rich, deeply spiced, and incredibly well-balanced. The mutton itself was soft, tender, and cooked to perfection, absorbing all the flavors beautifully. Yes, it was a bit on the pricier side, but it was absolutely worth it. The portion was generous, with noticeably more pieces of mutton than what you usually get on a standard plate, making the pricing feel fair and justified. The chicken malai boti kebab was also excellent—juicy, creamy, and well-marinated, with that perfect char that comes from proper tandoor cooking. It complemented the richness of the curry very well and was clearly made with attention to detail. Even the chai was a pleasant finish—comforting and satisfying, especially when taken to go. Overall, Tandoor in Cedar Park delivers authentic, high-quality Indian food that doesn’t cut corners. If you’re craving real flavors—especially well-cooked mutton that actually tastes like it should—this place deserves to be on your list. Easily a 5-star experience and a spot I’ll be returning to again.

We visited after seeing several good reviews and really liked the ambience. the decor is vibrant and the overall vibe is great. We ordered the half chicken karahi, which had a beautiful presentation, but unfortunately it was very oily. While the menu mentions it serves 2–3 people, there was hardly any masala/gravy to enjoy with naan. A bit more gravy instead of oil would have made a big difference. The chicken korma had a good amount of gravy, but the cardamom flavor was overpowering and didn’t taste like a typical korma. The paneer karahi was decent overall but felt under-seasoned and could have used a bit more salt. Service was on the slower side, we had to get the staff’s attention multiple times for basic requests. Overall, the ambience is lovely and the food has potential, but the experience was just okay for us. With some improvements in balance, seasoning, and service speed, this place could be really good
