Loved this place – the cocktails & the food were amazing! Lorenzo was my bartender/ server and he was awesome 🙂 I had both the Indigo vibes and East of Infinity cocktails, and both were ! I had the veggie Samosa & that was good but I want to come back to try their chickpea samosa too. The star of the night was their chicken tikka masala – SOOO GOOD ! Literally out of this world for me ✨ lol I haven’t had good tikka masala like that in so long! I got extra garlic naan with it to go, it was that good . The garlic naan was also really good ! I wish it was a little crispy on the bottom, but the flavor was still delish & on point so I can’t complain. Owners seem really sweet & the place is cozy & aesthetically pleasing. I will be back for sure 🙂

The sweetest couple, Atul & Alka treated us like family the day we wandered into Tigerlily. Alka went above and beyond to create the perfect espressos martinis for us and even ordered the Mr. Black liqueur that we liked knowing we were coming back in the following day.
Atul, the husband was so friendly and warm towards us and we could tell their staff was treated well too. Lorenzo, the bartender was just as fun and friendly as the owners.
Now onto the food…Wow!! My boyfriend and I fell in love with the couple of items we ordered. The meatballs and the chicken tikka masala were both absolutely delicious!! Also, the previous day we ordered the veggie samosas and I think it was the most delicious thing I’ve ever tasted.
Sadly, we had prior dinner plans down the street otherwise we would have stayed for a full meal. We also tried the Hibiscus Me and the East of Infinity cocktails and both were amazing!
We live in Napa but are excited to make the drive back to explore the entire menu and share more conversation with the amazing owners and staff. Thank you Atul & Alka!!

We love Tigerlily. An adorable Indian couple host/own and they are warm, attentive, and kind.
We always get the fried chicken with turmeric mashed potatoes which is amazing. The sauce is tasty, chicken is crispy yet juicy and the potatoes make me want to lick my plate. We also like the sesame lamb chops which again great seasoning, tender, on a bed of rice. It takes a few minutes to fire them so expect a short wait.
Naan is excellent. Drinks solid. Interesting Indian American fusion.
Expect to pay a bit more but we are happy with the lovely service which is a family owned feel and wonderful flavors. Will be returning!

I was here years ago and remember a decent food experience. However, today it was so bad that I will not be returning. The two of us ordered 1) Chicken Tikka Masala ($24.50), 2) Tandoor Fish ($26.5), 3) Beet salad ($16.00), 4) two mint teas. The beet salad was acceptable. The Tandoor Fish looked sizeable enough, but had very little meat on it, and had no tandoor flavor, so overall a disappointment in taste and in serving two people a reasonable amount. But the REAL disappointment was the chicken: at $24.50, I was utterly shocked when it came out and had but SIX tiny pieces (around 0.8″ cubes each), along with half a garlic naan and some seasoned rice. I figured this was a mistake so asked the server about the amount of chicken, but she assured me this was correct “because the sauce was heavy”. I was stunned but let it go. At the end of the meal, I told them I was very disappointed in the amount of chicken, and that the fish hadn’t been very tasty and that I would not be returning. She again defended the amount of chicken but offered me some to take home, which I declined (the offer too late, and never agreeing that $24.50 for that tiny amount of chicken was insanity). She then proceeded to remove the two teas from the bill. I know it’s hard to run a restaurant, prices are going up for everyone, but this was the most expensive chicken I’ve ever had at more than $4 per tiny cube! The bill came to $100 including an %18 tip, and all I had were 3 tiny pieces of standard tikka masala chicken, a meager amount of mediocre fish, and a lot of garlic naan (this was tasty, but I try to be low carb…), and that was with the tea thrown in for free!

Food ranged from good to excellent, but the cocktails were the real star of the show. The drinks menu was extensive, and we enjoyed each one we tried (their namesake, the Tigerlily, was a standout). The fresh fruit is a decadent touch to the very flirty, very sweet cocktails.

The fried chicken was exceptional, with an interesting take on mashed potatoes underneath — very hearty and filling. The coconut curry chicken was also excellent, though the naan was unusually thick and dry.

We also had the beet salad, which was delicious except for the avocados — they were so unripe that I couldn’t cut them with my fork and knife. Not exactly sure how they ended up on a plate and served, but the service was somewhat spotty so we couldn’t send them back before our entrees arrived — not the end of the world, since the beets and paneer were still good.

Overall, the food was good enough to warrant a return visit sometime, and the vibe was sophisticated (if not a bit sports-bar-y in the front). Great for a date night or a special catch-up with friends.

The food was pretty good, and so were the drinks. What wasn’t good was being charged full price for our second round of drinks while it was still happy hour. The owners, who seemed nice enough, nevertheless appeared to micromanage the bartender, questioning her about why a drink was sent back (it was overly spicy). The female owner did take the time to explain why their tandoori chicken wasn’t red, which I appreciated. I wanted to come back here often, but based on the overcharge and the uncomfortable micromanaging vibe, I don’t think I will.

We were super hungry and looking for a good place to eat. Happened to find Tiger Lily And decided to give it a try. What a good decision! Chicken mint kabobs, chicken Tikka masala were fantastic! Good size portions, comes with naan and basmati rice. Not spicy. Chicken Tikka nachos were pretty good too. Good selection of beer, wine, cocktails although they should stock a few more Indian beers. Overall excellent dinner though a bit pricey.
