The Onion Bhaji (GF) was a standout too, super crunchy and well spiced, highly recommend pairing with the garlic sauce.
Already looking forward to our next order, very happy customers here!"

First of all we had to wait for 2 hours for the delivery.
Curd rice cost $18 and hardly was a serving for one. it was watery.
Aloo fry (Dry) was $21 and was basically frozen supermarket potato wedges that has been fried and cooked as a dry fry. didnt taste good at all.

Chicken 65 is on point!! Curries are beautiful with the right amount of kick!! Do yourselves a favour eat in! Also knowing what curries to order with what rice or naans helps!! Maybe ask for a better dining experience. Staff are lovely as well"
"Disappointing. chicken cheese keema naan Garlic Cheese Naan Chicken keema naan Kashmiri Naan Kalonji Naan were all chewy and horrible and super hot-, clearly microwaved. Badam Halwa was the same, microwaved so much it was split grainy and oily - and when it cooled down it was totally solid like toffee from being so hot. Nuggets and chips were okay but five nuggets and a huge portion of cheap chips to make it look like more. I don't believe anything is made fresh."

This is the first time the curry actually had more than 4 pieces of meat like most places disappoint with! This was packed with delicious juicy pieces of Chicken Mumtaz (Butter Chicken)! The flavours were fantastic!
The Daal Makhani was super delicious! The Lamb Biryani was also fantastic with a great amount of lamb pieces!
They were also very generous and included 2 sauces, and 2 containers of rice just out of goodness! This is just unheard of! I am extremely impressed and thankful!"

"I used to love Chatorey’s food, and have recommended it to many others, but this time it was unbelievably disappointing. I usually order the same dishes, so the difference was very noticeable. The Barra Tandoori Chicken was undercooked, and I ended up having to finish cooking it myself in the oven.I’m not sure if the chef has changed, but the Afgani Chicken Roll wasn’t prepared in the usual Afghani style at all and definitely not worth 29 bucks."

However, there were some issues with seasoning. The vadai was quite salty, while the rasam had no salt at all and tasted quite bland. A better balance in seasoning would really improve the overall taste of the meal.
Other than that, everything else was good and enjoyable. Thank you, and I look forward to ordering again."

"Pleasantly surprised by how delicious everything was. The Jeera Aloo was amazing, the Palak Paneer too, though I wish it had more paneer in it. Portion sizes are plentiful. Can't recommend this place enough."
"Firstly I must say it was very tasty. But the portion was tiny. Think of the thinnest rectangular takeaway container, like about 1.5cm. For a $20 chicken curry not seafood! I corrected double the size You'd expect to pay $12 for a curry that size.
Roti was passable, not much flavour and lukewarm despite being only 8mins away. Again on the small side for $6. I've had the same quality and size for $3.50. Go for it if there's 40% off! "

"Have ordered from here for years- before it was named D'Tandoor, when my extended family visited- and the Makhani/ Butter Chicken was the one food (of anything in her life) that my Grandma ever loved enough to have seconds of. Since then, I've introduced this restaurant to my partner and since the first time he requested Cheese Naan instead of plain naan (which is also delicious), we are especially hooked. Favourite dinner ever. Both the regular and the large sizes are enough for multiple serves for at least two people, sometimes more- same with the Cheese Naan but that doesn't last as well because it ends up getting devoured far too quickly. Makhani, korma, Dahl and saag are our favourites, but we will forever come back here for as long as we can for the delicious, creamy Butter Chicken and the cheesy naan (different to paneer naan but they have that too).
Couldn't recommend D'Tandoor more."

"The Firdausi Korma was so much better than I ever anticipated. The lamb was lean, tender, high-quality, of generous portion and cooked to perfection. The flavour was a symphony. It was also, truly delicious. Whomever cooked it, is a class act! The Roti was to my taste as well, and crispy in part, which I very much favour. My only reservations: the Gulab Jamun was passable, but not exceptional and you provided no cutlery, and there was no way to request it and no serviette was provided. All in all, outstanding."
"⭐ **Very disappointing experience**
The paratha was extremely dry and looked like it had little to no butter or ghee. Unfortunately, the quality was not what I expected.
I called the restaurant to speak with a manager and asked for an email address or phone number so I could share photos of the issue, but I was told they could not provide any contact details. As a result, I have no option but to upload the pictures here with this review so the restaurant can see the issue.
I hope the management takes this feedback seriously and improves the quality."

"Daal and Rogan Josh were really delicious"
"So BAD. We ate at the restaurant a month ago and loved the food - the chicken was such good quality and literally fell apart with amazing flavours. We decided to order takeaway and more or less threw the whole lot apart from the naan bread - the chicken was disgusting, huge chunks full of gristle and cartilage, we didn't even eat it as it was so stomach turning. The flavours of the vindaloo were still nice but the meat just ruined the whole dish. The masala was exactly the same.
The samosas were huge - dense and dry, again just not what you'd expect from a delicate snack.
Such a waste of money and time - especially when your driver is on a push bike so it arrives cold.
You can't serve food of such poor quality - I'd like a refund. Really such a shame for it to be so inconsistent. "
