Tandoori Chicken is an Indian joint located in Metairie, a quick hop, skip and a jump from downtown New Orleans. A family run business in operation for more than 20 years, they serve up some delicious vegan and non-vegan offerings like the lamb birayni and butter chicken. Walking inside feels likeentering an Indian family's home. The warmth and service you'll experience will be top notch. A buffet option is available at lunch so guests can sample a bit of everything Tandoori does well. The local fish baked in the tandoor oven delivers a succulent dish, served with dal (lentils), rice and puffy nan bead.
