Tandoor Restaurant HCMC: Authentic Indian flavors in every dish.
Since 1997, Tandoor Indian Restaurant has been at the forefront of bringing authentic Indian flavors to Ho Chi Minh City. Businessman Subhash, recognizing the lack of genuine Indian cuisine in the city, decided to establish an authentic Indian food brand in Vietnam.
Colorful dishes are a signature feature of the restaurant.
The restaurant boasts a team of native Indian chefs, all experts in preparing specialty dishes from across India. The menu features 100% premium Halal ingredients, offering dishes suitable for diners of all dietary needs, including vegans and Jain followers.
Halal food can be divided into two main groups: plant-based or animal-based. Plant-based foods are permitted as long as they are not harmful to health; animal-based foods must adhere to strict regulations during slaughter and processing. Halal menus only use clean products with minimal impurities and toxins, emphasizing products of natural origin. They use less oil and fat, and limit sugar and salt.
The space has an Indian feel.

Located in the Thao Dien area, this vegan Indian restaurant is a haven for Indian food lovers. With a diverse menu ranging from South Indian and North Indian dishes to familiar street food, the restaurant has skillfully recreated a corner of India right in the heart of Saigon.
The restaurant's sophisticated design, soothing Hindi music, and the distinctive aroma of Indian spices create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Although communication with the staff might be slightly challenging due to language barriers, the delicious flavors of the dishes are sure to satisfy you.

Mr. Luong Van Trang, Director of Inbound at Vietnam TravelMART Joint Stock Company, stated that with the increasing number of Indian tourists, the number of Indian restaurants in Da Nang is insufficient to meet the demand. This is especially true for large groups such as MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) events and weddings, making it even more difficult to accommodate them.
Therefore, for large groups, travel companies are required to bring Indian chefs to serve. This is not to mention the fact that culinary tastes vary from region to region. "This is a source of tourists from a billion people, and Vietnam is currently a highly sought-after name in India, so we need coordination from higher levels, such as collaborative training of Indian chefs, and improved immigration and visa procedures to capitalize on this opportunity," Mr. Trang said.
