The ambiance at Indian Tandoori Kingdom was really good and the place has a nice vibe. However, the service took quite a long time, and the overall experience was not as expected based on the Google reviews.
The food was decent. We ordered two different curries and specifically asked if each curry comes with rice — they said yes. But when the food arrived, they served only one portion of rice, which was disappointing. The rotis were good and well made.
We also ordered Dal Makhni, but it was a bit watery. It would have been better if it was thicker and richer in consistency.
Overall, an okay experience, but there’s definitely room for improvement in service and consistency.

I absolutely loved this Indian restaurant in Santa Barbara. It’s located in a very beautiful area, and the atmosphere inside is calm, clean, and welcoming, with lovely artwork and a peaceful, elegant vibe.
The food was outstanding. The shrimp were large and perfectly cooked, the masala sauce was rich and flavorful, the samosas were delicious, and the paneer was excellent. We also tried the masala chai and rice pudding — everything tasted amazing. Every dish was full of flavor and clearly made with care.
The service was also exceptional.
Joban was very friendly, attentive, and made us feel truly welcome. The service was top-notch.
We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this restaurant.

We really enjoyed our visit to Indian Tandoori Kingdom. We’re vegetarian, and it can be difficult to find healthy vegetarian meals for the whole family. Indian food offers a great option for us
We ordered the paneer pakora appetizer for our son, who liked it very much along with a couple of garlic naan slices.
My wife ordered the vegetable korma with the daily rice option. She’s loved it. It wasn’t too creamy, and it was very flavorful with the right amount of spice. She said it may have been the best korma she’s ever had. High praise, indeed!
I ordered the paneer tandoori, which was served on a hot cast iron platter with a bed of onions and green peppers. It was served with a coriander (cilantro) dipping sauce. The paneer was perfectly charred and spiced for great flavor. Check out the pics.
Our server brought us a complimentary rice pudding dessert that my sub devoted l devoured.
The vibe was outstanding, as there were several tables of entertainment journalists present for Kate Hudson’s appearance at the 2026 Santa Barbara Film Festival at the theater down the street from the restaurant.
I highly recommend Indian Tandoori Kingdom for your next Indian meal.

We had an incredible experience at the restaurant. The food was great! Shahi Paneer, Chilli Naan, Aloo prantha, Kheer are delicious and homely! Excellent service by Joban bhai, he was very friendly and accommodating with our small requests. He ensured that we had good experience at the restaurant. Highly recommend a visit here!

The ambiance is super good. Here’s my review on their food and drinks.
Drinks:
1. Masala chai – okayish
2. Salty lassi – good
Appetizer:
3. Chicken Tikka boneless in starters – sizzler effect was really nice. Flavors – not very spicy. Two different chickens in the starters, the one with is more spicy.
Main course:
4. Malai Kofta: so so good. Highly recommended
5. Dal makhani – neah. Not creamy, negligible salt, big and many pieces of whole rajma. Probably americanized version.
6. Paneer tikka masala – too sweet! For me, it tasted like tomato sauce diluted to make gravy. More americanized.
7. Garlic naan – good
8. Customized chili garlic naan – good.
9. Gulab jamun – to go.
Overall, great experience. When we shared the curry wasn’t good, they removed the charge. We offered a good tip in return. 🙂

The food here is incredibly delicious, but the service and cleanliness could use some serious improvement. After waiting over 15 minutes seated at our table, we had to walk up to a server to ask them to send someone to place our order. To make matters worse, the 1 M/W restroom, located upstairs, was in disarray with papers all over the floor.
While the food was tasty, we’re accustomed to spicy Indian cuisine. The dish we ordered lacked the desired level of spiciness, falling short of our medium to high spice preferences. The Chicken Korma, which was our best dish, came out with a medium level of spiciness, which was enjoyable but could have been spicier. The garlic naan was also delicious.
Another highly recommended dish is the Shrimp Tandoori, which was incredibly flavorful.

Do yourself a favor and get here!!!

High quality Indian food, amazing service by Joban who went above and beyond in ensuring we got good seats and food on time. Kind staff, comfortable sunlit atmosphere, and delicious Indian food! 10/10 recommend. We tried the butter chicken, lamb vindaloo, and naan. Mango lassi was so good too! Thank you!!!!

Enjoyed a late lunch at Indian Tandoori Kingdom on 1/28/26. Our party of 4 (plus our dog) ate at the outdoor tables under an umbrella. We ordered lunch specials that were a lot of food. We had two orders of butter chicken, one order of chicken curry, and one order of lamb curry. All meals came with salad, basmati rice, lentil and kidney bean soup and Indian bread. The food was absolutely delicious. We all loved the food. So tasty and authentic. Our waiter was Joban, and he was so nice and attentive (he even filled our dog’s water bowl).
The food was made fresh after we ordered. Everything was served on individual metal dishes and the portions were perfect. We all got so full that we later skipped going to dinner that we had originally planned.
Highly recommend this place. We will definitely eat here again on our next visit to State Street in Santa Barbara. Give them a try, I’m confident the dinner menu will be just as good as the lunch menu.
