I had a lovely first experience at Sizzling Tandoor. When I came in with my bubble tea, I wasn't aware that I couldn't have it with me. The gentleman kindly informed me and also offered to keep it in the fridge until I leave. The service was wonderful. I also admired the interior. The lighting was very cozy and the lights themselves have a very unique design that I appreciate. The food itself was amazing as well. The portion was quite generous. I thank everyone working for being so warm to my mother and I. And thank you for being understanding when I left without my bubble tea and came back minutes later to retrieve it, haha. I hope to eat at Sizzling Tandoor again soon!

We were visiting from Vancouver and the owner's daughter, Harkirn Bawa was extremely hostile, rude and arrogant while serving us. She has a bratty and entitled attitude. Feedback was not received well on lamb options. I am aware that a similar incident has occurred in the past however I thought she would have grown from that experience and become better at customer service. I sincerely hope she gets some training or help. Will never go back here and will make sure everyone knows not to patronize a place with such terrible owners

I had dinner with my friend, and it was fantastic. It was my first visit, and I highly recommend that everyone try Sizzling Tandoor. The service is excellent, and everyone is polite and helpful.

I had an incredible dining experience at Sizzling Tandoor! The food was absolutely amazing, and I can't give it anything less than 5 stars. From the aromatic spices to the perfectly cooked dishes, every bite was a burst of flavor. The team at Sizzling Tandoor, including the owner, were exceptionally attentive and provided a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making the whole experience even better. If you're looking for delicious Indian cuisine in Victoria, Sizzling Tandoor is a must-visit.

Reply to management: Then you guys don’t know how kheer is made. Kheer should be creamy not watery! And you add at least one dry fruit not just cardamom powder. You can check any YouTube video to understand the consistency of Kheer.

Worst Kheer ever! They just boiled some milk with cardamom and added Basmati rice! Nothing else! It was like drinking milk with rice! Don’t sell if you can’t make it and waste our money!

We ordered take away from Uber eats.

Didn’t take a lot of pictures but the food was very much on point. Absolutely amazing Tandoori fish sizzler, curries, cocktails and that dal tarka was just too good!?

Also, special mention for the hostess/server who was very accommodating with all our requests, kind, friendly and also suggested few good spots to check out in Victoria!

PS: went back the next day to get some take out. Lovely Indian food in Victoria that I hope everyone checks out if they’re craving some!

The amount of food in each serving is huge. Lamb Biriani in particular was a great pile of red rice but with no sauce. The raita was its rescue. Rogan Josh was very meaty and I am pleased my partner ordered aloo gobi so we shared and I got some vegetables. Chicken tikka masala all went - the only empty plate on the table. The server apologized that two of the beers on their list were unavailable - but one arrived later. Popadoms were plentiful and welcome as was the mango chutney. Service was prompt, efficient and friendly. The virgin mojito was welcome. We ordered mild but sometimes I thought my idea of mild was not the same as theirs.

Amazing Indian restaurant in Victoria Canada. Feels like home to eat in or take out. Thank you for making me feel like eating home food while away from home:), ️

Delicious food, fabulous service. Hands down the best meal we had during our long weekend in Victoria amongst a bunch of good meals.

We wanted to have something simple Indian food. We ordered Chana bhature and it was simply delicious. Taste was awesome. Service was good. Music was too loud to enjoy conversation. Tables has some sticky wax and was difficult to put hands on the table. But 4 stars for food taste and service

We had a wonderful time at this restaurant. The cashew nut qorma was really good! Naans were fresh. We also tried onion and coriander naan and tandoori chicken. Both were great. Kirn was a great host she took care of us a lot and great bartender! Would love to come back again

Wowwwwww! This place is amazing, the owner Kirn, she went above and beyond our expectations. Literally the best Indian food, I've had. All the way from Houston, TX to Victoria, BC to have the best butter chicken I've eaten. The cocktails where amazing also, Kirn made them personally. Couldn't of been a better experience. Even the music in the restaurant, was great, good vibe. I highly recommend this place!

Favourite restaurant, food here is amazing and the staff are very kind. I’ve never had a bad experience here or at any of their other locations. Highly recommend the Butter curry and their homemade chai tea

I went there last night and I’m surprised why there rating is so low. Food is awesome and there service is next level. Will highly recommend going there and my personal favourite was Kashmiri kofta and garlic naan.
