Royal Tandoori Indisches Restaurant in Dortmund

Delivery service was an absolute disaster!

I just ordered from them and received the wrong dish. As a solution, they offered to send me the correct dish, but then I'd have to pay the difference because the other dish, which is what I actually wanted, is a bit more expensive. Alternatively, they could just replace the wrong dish, but in the end, I still get nothing. I just ended up with plain rice and bread. Thanks for nothing, never again.

Very friendly waiter! The food was very fresh. The sauces were delicious and homemade. Excellent value for money; we had a huge portion (for two people), with rice, naan, and dessert included. The mango and yogurt lassi are highly recommended. The restroom was also clean. A little gem in downtown Hörde!

We are completely satisfied. Everything was delicious, and the service was super friendly. Definitely give it a try. 👍

Great, delicious food and great service. Highly recommended. We'll be back.

Unfortunately, the restaurant didn't impress us at all. The venue has a rather dated style, and the menu was quite amusing with its various fronts, spelling errors, and distorted images. Nevertheless, we had high hopes for the food and were unfortunately somewhat disappointed. Indian cuisine is usually a dream, with its wonderful interplay of individual spices. We didn't find the food particularly intense or varied.

Excellent food. We'll be back 😁

Hidden away in a hallway is this restaurant. Delicious Indian food at a good price. Definitely recommended if you're looking for good flavors. Great service and Cobra beer.

Delicious food and excellent service. I felt very welcome, and I highly recommend the place. Keep up the good work!

Super delicious, tasted authentically Indian. Medium hot is hot enough, very friendly and attentive service. It's hidden away but worth it. And they serve Cobra beer 🍺!

Incredible, exceptionally good food and very friendly hosts. In summary, a small restaurant, perfect food. Excellent value for money.

You order food for a certain amount of money and the driver just thinks he'll take a tip without asking, what's the point of that???

The decor is a matter of taste, but the food is delicious and absolutely great value for money. We enjoy eating here regularly.

Strange location and restaurant. The food was good, although everyone has their own preferences when it comes to Indian cuisine. For me, the samosas weren't quite to my liking. The chicken tikka was okay.

Our absolute favorite restaurant; the quality of the food is outstanding. The dishes are prepared with an eye for detail. Special requests are always accommodated. ☺️ If you want authentic Indian food, you should go here. 👍

Super nice welcome, the grill plate was very good and quite generous. Thank you.

Greetings from Switzerland, South Tyrol 👋 Friendly, Flexible, Spontaneous & Creative A taste experience, a feast for the palate👍👍👍👍👍 ❤️ Thank you, see you next time

Super nice staff, food is incredible !! Gives a warm and comforting feeling - there are no words for it really. Will be having dinner here again 100% !! We also got a desert as a gift with a little heart on it !! Love to the staff !!

Great restaurant, delicious food, top service

Yes, best Indian in town. Always friendly and everything fresh and the food is very authentic.

Very tasty food that is attractively served. The staff is very friendly and the prices are extremely reasonable.

Nice restaurant, suitable for couples. Quiet and relaxed atmosphere, traditional furnishings, very beautifully and authentically designed. Seems to be a family restaurant, staff very nice and helpful. Large portions, delicious food, you will be asked for the desired level of spiciness, even if one is already specified in the menu (very nice for people who are not so tolerant of spiciness) Overall very nice and unfortunately very hidden. It's worth it!

The ambiance is good , and the food is delicious, especially the mutton dishes. Prices are reasonable.

Top food and super nice and attentive staff! Ordering is also highly recommended, always with a gift 🎁

Very pleasant restaurant, always friendly staff and you can eat there in peace. The shop is not overrun, which is less due to the quality of the food and more due to the location in Hörde.

I always wanted to visit this Indian restaurant, but somehow the wish always remained the same, but finally my wife and I went there. We didn't regret it and went straight back the next day. My dish, chicken curry, was something to my liking and will probably become my favorite dish. Everything was great, there was. Start with thin bread, thick as paper, with 4 different dips, all 4 simply delicious. My dish came with rice, you could have eaten the rice alone, it tasted so great, half of it consisted of red rice that probably got its color from turmeric and was flavored with honey and many other spices, among other things. We also ordered garlic bread so we could still use the delicious dip. So we were fed up and politely declined the offer for more rice. The service was just as great as the food, very friendly and any questions about the dishes were happily answered. The ambience also matched well-kept tables, a real feel-good atmosphere. I've already invited my favorite relatives to dinner next week😁

Excellent Indian food and great service! We had a wonderful evening at the Royal Tandoori in Dortmund. The food was simply fantastic - authentic Indian dishes with perfectly balanced spices and fresh ingredients. The butter chicken and homemade naan bread were particularly delicious! The service was equally outstanding: friendly, attentive and professional. The atmosphere in the restaurant is cozy and inviting, with pleasant music in the background. The portions are also generous and the price-performance ratio is absolutely fair. We will definitely be back and can fully recommend the Royal Tandoori! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Is this an insider tip? Inconspicuous entrance but chic inside. Super friendly staff and there is magic in the kitchen, I can't explain the delicious food any other way. We will definitely eat here more often! We will also try ordering. They also deliver, but go there, it's worth it!

Very authentic restaurant! Delicious food, beautifully prepared and courteous service. A hidden gem not far from Lake Phoenix. Absolutely recommended!

The food was delicious. Thanks for the service.

Food very tasty & very friendly service. Highly recommended!

The taste is absolutely different. Butter naan looks like a joke. Butter chicken tastes like maggie masala curry. It was a really horrible experience and I won't recommend it to anyone who would like to taste indian dishes.

We eat here often because it's just so good! For under 20 euros you can get as much rice as you want with a sauce and meat of your choice Every dish we have tried so far tastes good and the rice is great every time.

So far always satisfied and fast delivery. Today the order hasn't arrived after 2 hours, even though they said on the phone an hour ago that the driver is on the way, it will only take 5-10 minutes. Since then, people have been pushed away on the phone and can no longer reach anyone. Absolute no-go!

The food was very tasty. The service was friendly and quick. The restaurant is somewhat hidden in a building entrance.

Very friendly service, all questions about the menu are answered. The food is super tasty and is served as spicy or mild as desired. The chai tea is highly recommended! We're always happy to be there!

Unscheinbar und etwas versteckt in Dortmund-Hörde. Super lecker, alles frisch, fairer Preis, netter Service. Sehr zu empfehlen, kommen gerne wieder!

I ate very well and the service was top! Compliments

So far we've only had the food delivered, so we can't say anything about the restaurant itself. But the food is super tasty. The sweet rice with the normal one for the selected dish is very tasty. No matter what you try there, it tastes good. The naan is also very, very good. We have rarely been 100 percent satisfied, but that is the case with Royal Tandoori.

Very tasty, good service and good advice, we were there for the first time today. And we will definitely come back several times. The only drawback is that the restaurant is a bit cold.

Always delicious. The food is tasty, the service is quick and friendly and the price-performance ratio is great. By the way, the dips are awesome!

We were actually programmed for “Türk.Restaurant” (but unfortunately it was just a kebab shop! ☹️), So I looked on Google Maps to see what was nearby and the “Royal Tandoori” popped up. Our boys weren't keen at first, but my wife prevailed. And that was a good thing! The four of us were totally thrilled afterwards. Ok, the ambience is somehow typically Indian, but dated, the waitress rocked the place all by herself (so you had to wait), but still everything is good. And then the food came: The 4 of us enjoyed the grill menu for 3 people. ordered + 2 additional naan breads. It was great, very tasty, we were completely full afterwards. And our 10-year-old constant complainer was also completely thrilled. The fun ending was dessert. That didn't work for the boys at all: Looked like applesauce, but it wasn't applesauce!! Some strong-tasting fruit with a hint of rice pudding. When I said it was a puke fruit, the topic was over! 😱🤣😉

Leckeres Essen, freundliche Gastgeber, sehr gutes Preis/Leistungsverhältnis Wir waren mit Freunden spontan zum Essen dort und haben uns gefreut, dass die Küche auch in den Nachmittagsstunden durchgehend offen ist. Da wir überwiegend Vegetarier sind, ist indische Küche mit den vielen Gemüsegerichten immer eine Option. Wir sind sehr zuvorkommend bedient worden, das Essen war sehr gut, besonders lecker waren die Saucen zum Papaddam. Wir empfehlen das Restaurant gerne weiter.

Thanks to Google Maps I found this restaurant. And it perfectly rounded off our trip to Lake Phoenix. Very tasty food and very friendly, attentive service. I can only recommend it!

The food was very tasty, friendly service, and very comfortable... again at any time⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Food is good ok a little better than good. The service is not intrusive and very friendly. I have been there twice now and will go there more often.

Wonderful, excellent food and the service was spectacular. 100% recommended

What a disgrace, I wanted to redeem a voucher for a voucher in the restaurant, but I was denied this on the grounds that there were already many guests with vouchers in the restaurant today and the quota had been exhausted (in other words). The only solution is to turn around, go out and don't come back.

Absolute hammer. We have already tested several restaurants but for us no one comes close to this restaurant. The chai, the smoothies, the rice, the meat, everything was absolutely top. The service is also fantastic and always super friendly. I can recommend you to eat here if you want good, quality food/drink. Everything was great when we picked it up and after 25 minutes of driving home the food was still warm and delicious.

Definitely our favorite Indian. Be careful, if you order spicy here you will also get INDIAN spicy, not European. 😜

Been there for the first time. All I can say is, very tasty 😋, highly recommended. Service is also very friendly. Will 100 percent come back

Very good Indian food, friendly service and overall one of the best Indian restaurants in the Ruhr area.

We were here for the first time, the food was very tasty and the waiter was very nice. We'd love to come back!

Incredibly delicious food, which was served to us very quickly. The prices are also absolutely reasonable. I can only recommend it to anyone who wants Indian food

Simple but interesting atmosphere. Typically Indian. Friendly staff

Very nice and attentive service, excellent food, cozy dining room, top value for money

Very tasty food, nice service! Always my pleasure

We ordered from Royal Tandoori today and I can say it was very tasty! The food arrived hot and the portions were more than filling and will be enough for tomorrow. The food was very tasty, including vegan and not that far away from the food in India, really great! We also received a dessert as a "gift", very thoughtful and sweet! :)

Went there for the first time today. Was recently in India (Bengalore, Mumbai, Surat). I really liked Royal Tandoori. Nice service, nice music and very tasty food. There were two of us and we were there on Saturday afternoon. Unfortunately we were the only guests at lunchtime. Hope this isn't the norm! I'd love to come back!

This restaurant is located in the immediate vicinity of Lake Phoenix, but inside there is no daylight, but that is the only point of criticism. The service was very! kind and courteous. The food is authentic and very tasty. There was savory rice and yellow sweet rice as a side dish. The greeting from the kitchen with 4 different dips was also very tasty! There is beer, but no wine, lassies and soft drinks.

Courteous service, delicious food and a “charming, rustic” atmosphere. The mixture is authentic and that's why I like to come back.

Wir haben schon häufiger indisch gegessen. Heute war es einfach nur lecker. Die Linsencracker und die Soßen, die es als Gruß aus der Küche gibt, sind mit Abstand die besten, die ich bisher gegessen habe. Das Hauptgericht, Nummer 47….. mhmmmm! Das Restaurant ist etwas versteckt in einer „Passage“. Die Bedienung ist freundlich, höflich und zurückhaltend. Es war nicht sehr viel los. Ich hoffe, dass dieses Restaurant noch lange bestehen bleibt. Die indische Küche ist für mich die spannendste, da die Gewürze, die hier verwendet werden unfassbar lecker sind.

The food was good. Unfortunately there is no Indian Batura and we had no appetite for any other bread. All in all good.

Very good food and nice service!

I ordered delivery there via Uber Eats. Chicken Tikka Masala was delicious! A mixture of very good and diverse spices and a nice basic spiciness. And the naan (Indian bread) and the chicken soup were also very tasty. Since there are still one or two Indian restaurants in Dorrmund where the food is better and cheaper, I "only" give it 4 stars.

We were served very friendly, we didn't have to wait long for the delicious food and the rice was always refilled

Incredibly good food, fair prices, lovely employees!

Food delicious, service good, ambience not that special

Four of us had Indian food for the first time. The restaurant is conveniently located in Hörde, just a few steps from the parking lot at the collegiate church. We didn't have a reservation (Tuesday evening) but there were still enough tables available. Before we looked at the menu, we had a few questions about Indian cuisine itself, about the dishes, methods of preparation, etc., which were explained to us in detail and patiently by the nice waiter. When ordering, we were informed about the spiciness of the various dishes, which was also good. We had 4 different dishes that were served fairly quickly. As a "greeting from the kitchen" we received a kind of flatbread with four different dips, all of which tasted very good. As a starter we had different types of bread, but the bread baked with minced meat tasted best. The food tasted very good. But you should believe the waiter when he says "it's spicy"! My complaint about my dish was that the beef (cooked) was too dry, as if it had been cooked for a long time. But everything tasted perfect. For dessert we had regular chocolate and vanilla ice cream. What has to be said clearly is that the price-performance ratio is more than good. You can hardly find a grill plate for 2 people for 28 euros anywhere else. Cleanliness in the restaurant OK I can't judge toilets. It was a nice evening, the Indian music played at a pleasant volume in the background and the noise level in the restaurant was also acceptable. Just a note for the waiter: if necessary, ask what drink you want. Many guests are so busy with the menu that they want to quench their thirst. Otherwise everything is good!

Very polite and good waiter. The food has always been good so far.

Very friendly hospitality. Cozy, just as I imagine Indian furnishings and really delicious food. The food was fresh, hot and really tasty. We were there because of our Schlemerblock and are so excited that we will definitely go back. Really good

Great shop, everything fresh and delicious. Service is super polite! Prices are fair!

Very tasty food. An absolute recommendation!

A very special restaurant as it is in a former café. You can still see these influences. This makes it less “crammed” with decoration. The mirrors make it appear open and bright. The service is very friendly and the food is delicious. You can choose between different levels of spiciness and “spicy” is also edible for Germans. Everything well seasoned, fresh, filling. And there is a large selection of dishes with different meat and vegetable dishes, the dips at the beginning are included and also recommended.

A "small" but fine restaurant in a side street of the pedestrian zone; we almost ran past it. You can expect a restaurant that is not too crowded and has a somewhat outdated interior. The service was very accommodating and polite, which I found very good since it was my first time eating Indian food. I was asked whether I preferred it spicy or medium and that was a good thing. We had booked a table for Saturday at 6 p.m. and that was necessary because it was slowly filling up and people had to leave without a reservation. I can only recommend the food and we will definitely go to Royal Tandoori again!

Leckeres Essen und freundliche Bedienung. Das Lokal ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen.

+ sehr freundliche Mitarbeiter + gemütliches schickes Ambiente mit angenehmer indischer Musik im Hintergrund + gut ausgewählte Speisekarte + gut gewürzte Gerichte + faire Preise

Beim Hereinkommen konnten wir schon herrlichen Geruch nach Räucherstäbchen wahrnehmen. Wir waren wochentags mittags dort - die einzigen Gäste. Der Service war sehr freundlich. Das Essen hat uns sehr gut geschmeckt - eine Empfehlung auf jeden Fall.

Das Essen hat uns gefallen. Die Bedienung war sehr aufmerksam und freundlich, das hat uns beeindruckt. Aber die meisten von uns fanden die Musik zu aufdringlich.

Tolles Essen, netter Service. Immer wieder gerne.

Ich fahre immer gerne die 48km hin! Das Essen ist richtig authentisch, sehr lecker und eine toller Service. 100% empfehlenswert

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Royal Tandoori in Dortmund, and it was an exceptional experience. The food was truly amazing, offering a delightful array of flavors that left my taste buds thoroughly satisfied. The service was impeccable – fast, friendly, and attentive. The staff's dedication to ensuring a pleasant dining experience was evident throughout. I highly recommend Royal Tandoori for anyone seeking delicious Indian cuisine paired with excellent service.

Das Essen hat sehr gut geschmeckt. Die Portionen waren groß.

Nettes Ambiente, sehr freundliches Personal und gutes Essen. Kann man auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen.

Wir haben das Restaurant gesucht und es ist nicht auf den ersten Blick gefunden. ABER... es lohnte sich! Die Bedienung war sehr freundlich und die Freundlichkeit war nicht "aufgesetzt". Wir haben uns eine vegetarische Vor- und Hauptspeise bestellt. Die Schärfe konnte vorher bestimmt werden und war für uns dann perfekt. :-) Wenn die Beilagen nicht reichen, wird aufgefüllt. Aber es war mehr als genug und super lecker! Nachspeise schmeckte hervorragend und war ein "Gruß aus der Küche"! Preis/Leistung = TOP Wirklich sehr zu empfehlen!

We planned a small get together event at this restaurant. The staff were friendly and the food was prepared as per our requirements. All the dishes were delicious. I will definitely recommend this restaurant.

Am letzten Sonntag hatten wir in diesem Restaurant ein Treffen mit rund 50 Personen organisiert und es war ein voller Erfolg, dank des freundlichen Personals (insbesondere Herrn Raja), des guten Essens und des tollen Ambientes.

We had organised a get-together for around 50 People in this Restaurant on last Sunday and it was very succesful. The staff were very nice and co-operative (esp. Mr. Raja), food was nicely prepared and served.

War leckeres Essen und freundlicher Service

Die Bedienung ist zwar gut, aber das essen ist leider nicht gut. Das Fleisch war trocken, der Reis sehr nässrig. Leider hatten wir es viel besser erwarten. Ist natürlich Geschmacksache, aber wir können es nicht weiterempfehlen

Wir sind durch Zufall drauf gestoßen und waren sehr positiv überrascht! Echt leckeres Essen und sehr freundliche Bedienung! Ein Geheimtipp für hörde

Ich habe in meinem Leben noch nie so leckeren Reis gegessen. Eine unglaubliche süße Note. Sehr zu empfehlen. Das Personal war zudem sehr höflich und das Ambiente top.

Liebevolle, aufmerksame Bedienung. Leckeres Essen, im stilvollem Ambiente,mit leiser indischer Musik im Hintergrund.

Nette Bedienung, leckeres Essen und sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs Verhältnis Da kommt man gerne wieder. Wir können das Lokal absolut weiter empfehlen.

Mehrmals vor Ort gewesen, sehr leckeres Essen und ein sehr freundlicher Kellner, immer wieder gerne

Äußerer Lokaleindruck täuscht, etwas schwer zu finden , Speisen sehr schmackhaft, große Auswahl, Preise angenehm angemessen,, sehr freundliche Servicekraft, Empfehlung!!

The waiter was very down to earth and his service was good, except that the dishes recommended by him especially "Paneer Tikka Masala" was not good at all. We could taste raw onions in the tadka gravy. Naan was not authentic Indian Naan. Overall, i can say it was not authentic Indian taste, at least for vegetarian dishes.

Mit der Beste Service den wir je erlebt haben und das Essen der Warnsinn!

Food: 3.5/5 It's ok ok. I tried the Shahi l Panner and chicken Tikka masala. Both were medium to good taste. Naan / Garlic Naan could be more softer and thinner. North Indian taste was not obtained but definitely not a bad one. Can try once.

Ich bin spät in das Royal Tandoori Restaurant gekommen und konnte noch Speisen. Das Ambiente ist wirklich authentisch indisch, sowie man es in Deutschland nur selten findet. Das Essen war einfach Topppp. Der Kellner namens Raza war sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. So konnte ich ein tolles Gespräch mit dem leckeren Essen genießen. Ich komme auf jedenfall wieder! 🙌🙌
