Restaurant Tadka in Kassel

We celebrated my birthday with friends, had a delicious meal and enjoyed the hospitality. Big praise to the entire team.

Food was excellent! The landlord is incredibly polite and served us even though we arrived at closing time. Since we are not from Kassel, we really liked the restaurant, if we are in Kassel again we will definitely come back!

Food was very tasty. Service was also OK. Highly recommended

Bad, I do not recommend dealing with him. He brought the order differently and refused to exchange it

Incredibly delicious authentic Indian food. We had classic butter chicken and chicken tikka masala, the sauces were super tasty and flavorful, the chicken was nice and tender and the rice was super light and tasty. There was also a really good garlic naan bread. I'll definitely be back.

Essen sehr ansprechend und alles sehr lecker und vor allem heiß. Insbesondere werden manche Gerichte auf einer Art Bratplatte serviert, was besonders lecker aussieht. Ob man noch etwas trinken will, wird nicht gefragt.

Unfortunately, food wasn't for me.

The taste of the food was great, very well balanced, the rice was nice and fluffy. I won't be ordering from Lieferando again, the food was on the way for almost an hour and unfortunately it was cold, so we warmed it up in the microwave. So next time definitely there.

Das Essen war gut…der Service schlecht Jedoch bekamen wir Getränke in umgespulten Gläsern serviert In einem Glas befanden sich Essensreste

We were disappointed 😞. We've eaten Indian food very often and really enjoyed it. But here we were disappointed for the first time. The starter was really great, but the main course didn't work at all. It smelled burnt as soon as the food arrived. And you can't actually bring the food that dry. Extremely disappointed. Even the back room where we were placed, nothing was decorated, an empty table with no welcome... Very unfortunate...

Das Essen ist lecker. Der Service schlecht. Auf Getränke muss man lange warten. Wir haben ungespülte Biegläser vorgesetzt bekommen. Das geht gar nicht, es waren Essensreste im Glas!

We have been there twice with two people and the voucher book. There was nothing to complain about. This time there were more people with another voucher book. Unfortunately, the prices could not be made or met, which violates the rules of the voucher book. The restaurant was currently registered online. In mine. Book for 2024-2025 probably no longer. Unfortunately the lamb was also very tough. 2 stars because it used to be better.

Very tasty food, portion was also good.

Sweetened curries?! Didn't taste authentic at all :(

Getting the wrong food. Chicken was dry, no sauce. Bread was like rubber unfortunately...

Very tasty, lots of things gluten-free, nice staff Will definitely eat there again.

Super Long waiting times. For us the food took more than one and a half hour to get to us after we ordered. Very inefficient staff/system.

I visit Tadka at least once a week. Always very tasty, super friendly service at a fair price.

Unfortunately, we decided not to eat there because the atmosphere didn't appeal to us.

Just trying to understand what have I have just eaten😂😂 I have ordered paneer butter masala but it actually tasted like dessert 😂😂😂 (80% sweet-10% sour-10%undisclosed😂😂. It’s sad that the food I have ordered doesn’t match the Indian authentic taste and quality according to me… Not recommended!!

Very, very tasty traditional food at very fair prices with very friendly staff!

I recently wanted to visit the restaurant with a voucher book and unfortunately I was very disappointed. The voucher was actually intended for a main course, but we were told that it was only valid if we also ordered drinks and appetizers. This restriction was not clearly stated anywhere, and it felt as if we were being pressured to consume more in order to be able to use the voucher at all. This is simply outrageous and feels like a rip-off. Overall, a very disappointing experience - we will definitely not be coming back here!

I'm totally satisfied, there's nothing to complain about :) Price, service.. everything is good)

Very nice service and delicious food, I recommend

Spontaneously ate at Tadka. Pleasant atmosphere, really nice service and authentic, hot food. Prices are reasonable. We'll definitely be back soon.

Nice place to hangout, service was good. I loved the bhindi curry , it was very tasty.

We wanted to grab something quick to eat before the cinema and had allowed 90 minutes for it. That was very close. It took a long time before we even got a card. The drinks we ordered were forgotten. The starters came after a long wait and were very tasty. We recommend the stuffed bread with potatoes, onions and cream cheese. The portions of the lamb and chicken dishes were tasty but too small. There was enough rice but there was very little meat. Information about intolerances to spices was addressed, but 2 out of 4 people had their noses closed afterwards. We would still try this restaurant a second time.

We were very happy with the food! The best was number 15. The naan bread is also very tasty. Price-wise also perfectly good. Is recommended

We discovered the restaurant "Tadka" in Kassel completely by chance while we were in town shopping, and it was an absolute stroke of luck! The food was simply delicious. My husband and I tried the lamb biryani while our daughter enjoyed the allo naan (potato bread). Everything was incredibly tasty and freshly prepared. We would also like to particularly emphasize the friendly service - the staff was very attentive and courteous. We can only warmly recommend the “Tadka” and are already looking forward to our next visit!

The food is very tasty! However, you have to be prepared for waiting times and the atmosphere is reminiscent of a German pub. Went there during our lunch break and we waited 45 minutes. I don't understand how something like this can be possible. The chef doesn't just start chopping the vegetables when the order comes in. So unfortunately there is no longer an option for lunch. When ordering for pickup, you have to wait at least 20 minutes on site.

Tasty food and very quick service. I would. prefer to come again Mango lassi is yummy 😋

Nice place. Reasonable prices. The food was tasty.

There were two of us and we shared Paneer Butter Masala, Dal Makhni and Garlic Naan. Unfortunately, both dishes, especially the Paneer Butter Masala, were strangely very sweet. A piece of paneer also tasted old or strange. The Garlic Naan was good though. The salty lassis were also very tasty. The ambience is okay, but the furniture (especially the covers) is already very worn out.

Wir essen vegetarisch/vegan, daher können wir zu den Fleischgerichten nichts sagen. Aber was die fleischfreien Gerichte angeht, ist das Tadka einer der besten, wenn nicht gar der beste Inder in ganz Kassel. Einfach nur köstlich! Die Auswahl an vegetarischen und veganen Gerichten ist toll, das Naan super lecker (vor allem das Aloo Paratha mit Kartoffeln lieben wir!). Die Einrichtung ist optisch ein bisschen in die Jahre gekommen. Vorher war dort wahrscheinlich mal ein bürgerliches Restaurant. Aber das tut dem Restaurantbesuch keinen Abbruch, weil das Essen einfach fantastisch ist. Das Personal ist immer freundlich und wenn es nicht gerade vollbesetzt ist, sind die Wartezeiten auch nicht sehr lang. Im dez gibt es übrigens jetzt auch einen kleinen Imbiss, der zum Restaurant gehört und eine Auswahl der gleichen Gerichte anbietet. Ebenfalls sehr lecker! (Die Fotos stammen aus dem dez) Wir gehen sehr gerne hierher und können den Besuch absolut empfehlen!

I tried lamm desi curry and chicken kalimirchi. I really liked the food. However, it was not spicy enough for us (even though we asked extra spicy). The foods come with a bowl of rice. Order your naan accordingly. The naans are very big. I tried butter naan and it was very delicious. The service is modest. The atmosphere is very authentic. I liked the Indian songs as well.

We ordered Butter chicken, Chicken 65, garlic naan, chicken pakoras, & mango lassi. The best part of the whole meal was the naans by far. Butter chicken was just ok. Chicken 65 was nowhere similar to how it should be; very disappointing. Mango lassi was not great. The ambience was not Indian. There were Indian paintings but the music was generic western. None of the servers were Indian. They took 15 minutes to prepare the bill with many mistakes including a wrong item. This delay caused us to miss a train. Overall a disappointing experience.

Truly one of the most authentic Indian Restaurant in Kassel trust me an Indian is telling this they have tasty food I tried their egg Burjee (which is not on the menu) it was soooooo it had the right amount of spice and was not too oily (which I really liked) Apart from that the staff is so friendly and nice they made us feel very comfortable Recently I also ordered from them via Uber Eats food and enjoyed their tasty food at home Regards and keep up the great work you all do

Located right in the city center of Kassel, you will find an expandable restaurant with Indian cuisine. The dishes we chose (one with chicken, one vegetarian) were very tasty and recommended. The enjoyment of the food was not spoiled because of the somewhat sparse amount of rice, but because after we asked for a little more rice, we had to wait ten minutes for it, despite repeated reminders. Of course the rest of the food was cold. And that with four operators and an only moderately busy operation. Unfortunately, we also have to agree with other reviewers regarding the rather modest atmosphere. Rather inappropriate given the location in the city. The prices correspond to the current level and are probably also due to the local city location.

Great food! We'd love to come back!

Delicious Food, Great vegan options, especially the Aubergine-Potatoe Curry was a class of its own. Would say topten Indian restaurants in Kassel and Berlin

Very tasty food at comparatively cheap prices!

My first contact with Indian cuisine, I'm delighted. I recommend.

Ambience doesn't necessarily remind you of an Indian restaurant, but all in all it was a very nice visit and a really good meal,

For me the best Indian in town. We were there for the first time and were totally pleasantly surprised. The food was absolutely great. Price performance also great. The service was super friendly. Actually you can only work on the ambience here, the rest was great.

Ordered take out and they didn’t remember my order so I had to wait. But they gave me a discount for the delay and the food was delicious.

Food is okay but the owner seems to have to celebrate Putin and offers a “Russian Putin Power” cocktail. The waitress couldn't explain it

Very tasty and nice food, the right music was also playing and brought you down to enjoy the food even more

Here I had one of the most delicious meals ever, I ate the Paneer butter masala and garlic naan❤️ nice staff 😊 I highly recommend this place if you want the best indian food❤️

Super charming team, responds to explicit customer requests. A little too generous with salt and a little too sparing with spiciness for my taste. . The taste is still convincing. That's why we visited the Tadka again. . My tip: go there in the evening and don't eat anything the whole day before. . Because: I am a really heavy eater, but I always get full from a single meal. . Bon appetit.

Very cozy, extremely tasty food, but we had to wait about an hour. Since it's just a small restaurant, there was quite a bit of space, but as I said, the food made up for it all. The service is really very friendly. We were definitely not there for the last time.

Best Indian food in Kassel City 😍😍

The food tastes excellent, the lassi was a bit very salty. We have also experienced faster and more courteous service.

Very tasty, inexpensive food, there are vegan and vegetarian dishes. Generally small menu, but tasty. Would come back at any time.

Budget Indian Good prices considering the location and portion sizes. The dishes were quite tasty, although served without pizzazz and special side dishes. The naan bread for the Tikka Massla was largely burnt and was returned without replacement. Two points deducted for 50 minutes of waiting for a lukewarm meal and snippy service (the lady with the headscarf, her colleague, was much more professional). The waiting time in relation to four occupied tables does not speak for the organization of the restaurant. The ambience is neither Indian nor does it invite you to linger for a long time. The interior reminded me very much of the Macedonian Balkan restaurant that I visited in the same location almost 20 years ago. CONCLUSION: Good for hunger if you have enough time, not for a well-groomed person Evening in company.

Unfortunately the service is subpar. Sometimes you don't see any service for half an hour. The starter was ok, the rest didn't convince me.

My girlfriend and I had dinner there on Valentine's Day. The service was fantastic, the ambience was wonderful and clean and the food was beyond delicious. We will definitely come back. Thanks

The food was freshly prepared and tasted very tasty. The service was also friendly and impeccable. Despite all of this, we would probably not come back because we found the atmosphere (seating, lighting, noise in the next room) to be uncomfortable, which is why we deducted one star.

Best Indian ever! Aloo Gobi Masala and Aloo Baingen are highly recommended, especially for vegans But of course also the Garlic Naan and the Mango lassi Prices are absolutely fine

Wir hatten die Hauptspeisen 38 und 41 (einfach Teller mit Fleisch, ohne Beilage für mehr als 20 Euro!) dazu gab es drei Sossen die wir immer sonst als Vorspeise beim Inder gekriegt haben, sogar auch in Indien. Wir hatten auch noch das Thali als Vorspeise, Nummer 9 (wir dachten das ist wie immer beim Inder: 3-4 Hauptspeisen in kleinen Schalen, 2-3 verschiedene Soßen, Reis usw) und Knoblauchnaan, der nicht nach Knoblauch schmeckte und nicht so weich war wie wir Naan kennen. Das Thali war ein riesengroßer Teller mit frittierten Gemüse, Hähnchen und Fisch, mit denselben drei Soßen wie bei den anderen (s. Foto). Generell sehr enttäuschend, das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis hat für uns leider nicht gestimmt.. Die Atmosphäre war ok, die Bedienung nett. Wir haben den Chai am Ende bestellt, das hat leider hauptsächlich nach Wasser mit einem Schuss Milch und ein wenig geWürze geschmeckt. Ich vergleiche das Essen nicht direkt mit dem Essen in Indern, aber verglichen mit allen indischen Restaurants, die ich und Deutschland bisher besucht habe, war das das schlimmste.

Four of us visited this restaurant for the first time in February 2024. We had the main courses 38 and 41 (just a plate of meat, no side dish for more than 20 euros!) plus there were three sauces that we always got as a starter at Indian restaurants, even in India. We also had the thali as a starter, number 9 (we thought it was like always with Indian: 3-4 main courses in small bowls, 2-3 different sauces, rice etc) and garlic naan, which didn't taste like garlic and wasn't that soft was how we know naan. The thali was a huge plate of fried vegetables, chicken and fish, with the same three sauces as the others (see photo). Generally very disappointing, unfortunately the price-performance ratio wasn't right for us. The atmosphere was ok, the service was nice. We ordered the chai at the end, which unfortunately tasted mainly like water with a dash of milk and a little spice. I'm not comparing the food directly to the food in India, but compared to all the Indian restaurants I've visited in Germany, this was the worst. Maybe we ordered the wrong thing...

Food is very good, service is okay

The food was very tasty, hence 5 stars but 2 stars deducted for service. I would like to mention that we had a very unpleasant experience. We wanted to go here for lunch on a working day. Since the restaurant was 10 minutes away from our workplace, we called well in advance and placed the order. Other work colleagues then wanted to join us, so we called twice to place the further order and to say that we would pick up the food. When we were there, the receptionist told us that she was only putting the order in the kitchen now because she wasn't sure if we were coming. THEN THEY WOULD HAVE TOLD THAT ON THE TELEPHONE THAT SHE WOULD ONLY GIVE THE ORDER TO THE KITCHEN WHEN WE GOT THERE. Then we wouldn't have even tried to get this far. A lunch break is 30 minutes long - it should be clear if you order by phone at lunchtime and say you're in a hurry, that you're doing it for working reasons and not because you enjoy annoying people with calls. And it's even cheekier when the receptionist blames our colleague. Nevertheless, I give 3 stars because the kitchen tried hard and cooked deliciously. It's a shame, we wanted to come back later for dinner with 25 colleagues but after this experience we went to the other Indian place.

Great food in a rustic atmosphere. Nice service. We were here because of the voucher book. We'd love to come back.

Das Essen war gut und ausreichend. Die Wartezeit ein wenig länger, als erwartet.

Super leckerer Mittagstisch zum kleinen Preis. Kleines gemütliches Restaurant, netter Service. Empfehlenswert. Mittagstisch bis 14.30 Uhr.

Wir waren heute erstmals zum Mittagessen hier und sind vom Essen selbst begeistert. Beide veganen/vegetarischen Gerichte waren sehr schmackhaft und auf Wunsch wurde zum Abmildern der Schärfe zügig Raita nachgereicht. Den Servicemitarbeiter haben wir als sehr aufmerksam und freundlich empfunden. Das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis ist im Vergleich mit anderen indischen Restaurants im Kasseler Raum kaum zu toppen. Sicherlich könnte man das Ambiente deutlich indischer/bunter und weniger kneipenorientiert gestalten. Indische Musik, bzw. entspanntere Hintergrundmusik würde dem Ambiente ebenfalls gut tun, denn die ziemlich laute und beatlastige Disco-Musik hat doch eher etwas von Cocktailbar oder Kneipe :-) , daher gibt es Abzüge beim Ambiente. Dennoch werden wir wiederkommen, denn das Essen ist wirklich phantastisch!

Sehr leckeres Essen und gutes Preis-Leistung Verhältnis. Der Service war sehr nett und die Auswahl an Gerichten ist genau richtig. Lediglich das Ambiente passt nicht so ganz zum Konzept aber es ist dennoch Recht gemütlich. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder.

Das Essen schmeckt überragend gut und wird sehr schön präsentiert. Das Auge ist ja immer mit. Der Service ist super, man fühlt sich wirklich als Gast. Ich esse hier öfters und kann es wirklich weiter empfehlen!

Sehr, sehr lecker, freundlich, trotz Reservierung etwas längere Wartezeit. Trotzdem absolut empfehlenswert!

Food is delicious, so tasty. Hosts were attentive and very friendly! Fantastic curry

Irgendwie keine besonders schöne Atmosphäre, man kam sich abgefertigt vor. Meine Begleitung sagte, früher sei es besser gewesen.

Gutes indisches Essen. Top Preis-Leistung. Wir waren zu zweit und hatten zwei vegane Gerichte (14&15), 2 Getränke und eine Vorspeise für insgesamt 32€. Das Ambiente ist etwas verwirrend, aber das Essen ist super und der Service ist toll! Wir kommen gerne wieder :)

Toller Service und Essen ... Lecker Frisch und ein fairer Preis...Kommen gerne wieder...

Un buenísimo restaurante de comida hindú. Pedimos para compartir un Mix Pakoda Thali, con cantidades generosas y todo riquísimo. De principal mi preferido es el pollo korma y este ha sido el mejor que he probado. El equilibrio de sabores estuvo perfecto y, además, fue de fácil digestión. He probado el plato de cordero que no me acuerdo el nombre y también estaba muy bueno, bastante picante. El vino blanco seco hindú y estuvo también muy bueno.

Nette Leute, sehr leckeres Essen. Schnelle Küche. Leider war kein alkoholfreies Bier mehr da, als fahrender Pragmatiker habe ich mir halt ein Mango-Lassi bestellt. Da das Essen so lecker war, dennoch 5 Sterne. Man soll ja keine Erbsen zählen. Wir hatten Pakora. Sehr gute Dips dazu. Dann Knoblauchbrot zu 3€, das fast schon allein satt macht. Danach Gemüse und Paneer in Buttersauce. Es gibt vegetarische und vegane Speisen. Wir gehen garantiert wieder hin. Sehr freundliche Bedienung. Chris Pearl

Wir waren heute mit dem Gutscheinbuch im Tadka lecker indisch essen. Vorspeise Nr 1 und 3 sowie eine Hühnersuppe und das Gericht Nr 38 und 39 waren frisch, lecker und reichlich. Gutes Preis Leistungsverhältnis. Parken kann man gut am Karlsplatz. Einen Stern Abzug gibt es für das Ambiente. Service war ok.

Sehr leckeres Essen. Freundliches Personal. Bitte reservieren.

Leider war Lamm ausverkauft (etwas blöd wenn die halbe Karte aus Lamm besteht) Unser Essen hat sehr gut geschmeckt und wir sind satt geworden. Kellner war nett

Sehr gutes indisches Restaurant. Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt. Ambiente gemütlich. Sowohl meiner indischen Freundin als auch mir haben das Essen in diesem Restaurant sehr gut geschmeckt. Meiner Meinung nach hebt sich dieses Restaurant geschmacklich deutlich von dem anderen indischen Restaurants in Kassel ab. Das Butterchicken ist sehr zu empfehlen. Wir kommen definitiv wieder.

Essen und Service waren wirklich sehr gut und es gab absolut nichts zu bemängeln. In sachen Ambiente ist noch Luft nach oben und es geht noch Wesentlich Orientalischer.

Sehr leckeres Essen, sehr freundliche Bedienung!

Good: Very good food, nice outdoor seating and friendly service. Could be better: The service was quite slow and the portions were small.

Wow nach so vielen Tagen, indisches Essen war so glücklich! ✨✨✨✨✨👌✌️👍😘✨✨✨✨✨

Best food very good prices 💛💛💛💛💛👍

Wir waren mit den Gutscheinbuch dort. Essen war fantastisch. Selten so gut indisch gegessen. Wir hatten beide Garnelen. Nummer 33 und 34. Service und Ambiente bekommen 4 Sterne, da wes etwas länger gedauert hat und die Einrichtung schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen ist.

Es gab ein leckeres Essen, das leider jedoch zum Teil etwas verbrannt war. Mein Begleiter beklagte zudem seine Menge an Fleisch und hätte sich etwas mehr Hähnchen gewünscht. Insgesamt war es aber ein gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.

Dies ist ein kleines gemütliches Restaurant. Das Essen schmeckt sehr gut. Das Personal ist super freundlich. Trotzdem muss ich leider einen Stern abziehen, da das Personal nicht vom Fach ist (man wird z. B. nicht gefragt, ob alles in Ordnung ist, nachdem man angefangen hat zu essen) und die ein oder andere spricht nicht ganz so gut deutsch, somit gibt es auch mal Verständigungsprobleme.

Best food in Kassel City ❤️😋💪👍😀

Вкусная кухня, но увы обслуживание хуже ,,приветливых немцев,, атмосфера тоже увы простой забегаловки , но с ценами ресторана . В пустом ресторане просидели в ожидании супа 30 минут , попросив счет официант то и делал что пытался уговорить заказать еще к тому же в счете сделали ошибку добавив лишние блюдо! Я не вернусь !

Mein Lieblings-Inder in Kassel. Sehr leckeres Essen. Nette Bedienung.

Sehr sehr lecker. Nette freundliche Bedienung. Sehr zu empfehlen

Personal: sehr freundlich Essen: vielfältige Speisekarte und lecker zubereitetes Essen, Preise nicht zu teuer Ambiente: sauber und gepflegt und dezent indisch dekoriert mit Möglichkeit zum draußen sitzen

Ich habe meine Mittagspause dort verbracht. Es war sehr lecker und gute Portion.

It's a good place to have some Indian food if you crave it, the taste is Good but you should know that the food doesn't taste exactly like how it tastes like in India but it's good food.

Sehr leckeres indisches Essen 😋 Die Bedienung ist sehr freundlich. Kommen gerne wieder

Good food, reasonable prices. Food came quickly. All very tasty. Service friendly and fair prices for food and drinks. Two points to criticize: - My dish was named very spicy in the menu but it was not burning hot. Don’t be shy with spices, also Germans like it - after we finished dinner, it took ages until we got the bills But all in all, I would definitely go there again

Hier ist die Küchenleistung stabil. Das Essen ist köstlich, der Service freundlich und das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt. Was will man mehr? Klare Empfehlung!

Wir haben heute zu dritt hier getafelt und waren super zufrieden. Top Qualität und Geschmack des Essens, freundlicher Service. Inklusive Vorspeisen und Getränken kostete dieses Erlebnis nur rund 60 Euro.
