We went for dinner to this place after a colleague strongly recommended it. The papad is served for free initially. The chicken chilly momos were extremely flavorful and yum. The chowmein had all the flavors but a tad bit oily and underseasoned for me. The chicken 65 was very tasty. The tandoori shrimp is very flavorful as well. The staff were very helpful as well. Would love to go back and taste other items on the menu!

We got the garlic naan, malai kofta, and chicken tikka masala. My only complaint was that both the dishes were a bit sweet for my taste, as if a lot of sugar had been added to the curry while cooking. But other than that the food was delicious and flavorful, and there were many options on the menu. The ginger chai was delicious! The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed.

The food is amazing! Tandoori chicken is magnificent. Masala chai tea is very nice, smooth and aromatic. Kashmiri naan is like Peshawari naan I’ve had but their taste on everything I had was amplified and we loved every morsel. We will be back!

Have eaten here twice now and the food was excellent. Nice atmosphere inside and the staff is very friendly. I have eaten at every Indian restaurant in town and this place hangs with the very best. Plus they have some Nepalese items and unusual things you won’t find at most other places.

I loved the food so much!! It was probably the best indian food I’ve ever had! The service was very good and the setting was nice and calming. I also loved the music, the ed sheeran and one direction was amazing.

Everything was really good and definitely worth the visit. The food did come out late but everything tasted fresh and flavorful, and you could tell it was made with care. The portions were satisfying, and the presentation was nice too. Even though it was pretty busy and there was a rush, my server was still very polite and attentive despite handling multiple tables. She suggested one of the dishes, mentioning it’s a favorite, and it turned out to be excellent. I will definitely come back!

Lovely little Indian Restaurant. We got one of the Tiger Signatures Lamb Cooked in the Spinach, the Vegetarian Chana Masala, and the Mulligatawny Soup. All were delicious and reasonably priced.

I recently dined at White Tiger Indian Restaurant in Lexington, KY, and it was an absolute flavor explosion that left me craving more! We kicked things off with the jhol momo chicken, those juicy dumplings swimming in that spicy, tangy broth were pure perfection, bursting with authentic Nepali-Indian vibes. The kurkure momo veg was a crispy, crunchy delight, like a veggie party in your mouth with just the right amount of spice to keep things exciting without overwhelming.
For mains, the chicken chowmein was super worthy, with tender noodles tangled up in savory goodness, and the dhaniya chicken had this fresh cilantro kick that made every bite feel like a seductive dance of herbs and tender meat. Paired with fluffy tandoori roti, it was the ultimate combo, everything was delicious, cooked to perfection, and portioned generously.
Our server was a total gem – super helpful, attentive without being intrusive, and she made great recommendations that elevated the whole experience. They’re still working on their full liquor license, but no complaints here; they have a solid selection of beer and wine that paired nicely with the bold flavors.
If you’re in Lexington and love Indian/Nepali fusion done right, White Tiger is a must-visit. 5 stars all the way, I’ll definitely be back and recommending it to everyone!
