Natraj Tandoori

It was good. Service was attentive. We were tiring of Portugese food, so to «the beat Indian food in the world» as per the flyer being handed outside of the restaurant. My wife and son had chicken (korma & curry, respectively) I had vegetable paneer. All were very good. In fact, I think this has been the best meal we have had in Portugal so far. Vegetable Samosas to start and Naan on the side. All were very good. 40 Euros for meal inc mango lassi and a large beer and the tip.

We sensed Indian food would be good here because our airport transfer driver said there was a large Indian population, and this place was outstanding, some of the best Indian food I’ve ever had. Better than anything back home in the States for sure.
I started with a perfectly crisp samosa with tamarind sauce. The potato and pea mixture with spiced just right, and surprise, there was corn in it as well!
The main course was even better. The chicken tikka masala was PERFECT. Yes, I mean perfect. It was a delightful balance of spicy, sweet, and creamy. It was so good I used my garlic naan to sop it up (i usually love to eat my naan plain). By the way, the garlic naan was a perfect blend of crisp, soft, and garlic.
And as if this all was not enough, the guys who waited on us were extremely kind and attentive, and the atmosphere is very inviting (see previous review from another Unilocaler about its Bollywood feel).
Long story short, if you aren’t feeling Portuguese food one night, highly reccomend this place, only a few blocks from Rossio or Comercio.

Close to my hotel where I arrived at 20:00hrs, this cute little Indian tandoori restaurant is opened on Sunday night. Run by an even cute couple of little hipster Portuguese guys. I mean they are short!
The ceiling is painted sky blue and the walls kind of orange. Indian style pictures and reliefs and multi colored lamps make you feel all Bollywood. I love it.
The waiter typed in the password with like 20 characters for the wifi in my phone. So sweet!
I’m a sucker for Indian curry’s so I took a traditional goa fish curry with cumin peas rice. For drinks I got the traditional mango yoghurt drink. And a simple cucumber salad. Loved all of it! I have one week in Lisbon but this is a great place to eat while heading back for my hotel.
En dit geheel kostte me 17,50 mensen. Wat een geld! #koopje

Da família do restaurante do Rato, os pratos não variam muito. E são todos óptimos. A sala é confortável e de cores quentes, tornando o espaço muito acolhedor. Ao contrário do outro, não tem salas individuais, não deixando por isso de ser um lugar com alguma privacidade. As mesas têm a distância certa entre elas, portanto pode conversar-​se à vontade, sem ouvidos curiosos. Excelente o frango Shaslick Pilao com arroz e alho Naan acompanhado de uma cerveja Cobra, fresquinha, fresquinha! Muito bom!

Adoro comida indiana e não podia deixar de experimentar as promoções do almoço que tem um menú a 6,50 € com tudo incluído excepto bebida. O caril de frango estava bastante saboroso e o atendimento estava a ser simpatico mas quando a conta chegou tivemos uma desagradavél surpresa. Estava a cobrar o pratos da carta em vez do menú. Não entendemos porque e questionámos. Pois o empregado tinha como justificação que quando pedimos, e apesar de apontarmos na carta para a página em que tem os menus, não usámos a palavra menú. infelizmente não foi a melhor experiencia e é pena que após uma experiência que até tinha corrido bem tivesse este desfecho.
