We perform checks on reviews.
Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Perfect Dinner! The complete staff was super friendly, even the cook came out to ask how we liked the food - it was fantastic. We had chicken tikka masala with garlic naan.
Portions were big, great taste and flavours for a very good price!

This is the best, tastiest and authentic indian food I have ever eaten! Indian food is one of my favourite cuisines and I was hoping to find a really nice but not too expensive restaurant whilst in Samui. The owner and waitresses were so friendly and the service was so quick. They even asked how much spice I wanted which was good as you could have it to the amount you like. The portions were so big I even brought some back for my friend. And we then went the next day to share a curry and rice, which was even too much for two of us. It is so worth the money and a beautifully kept restaurant I cant praise it enough!

Tandoori Palace is a great place to eat if you're looking for good Indian food at reasonable prices. The service was excellent and the staff were very friendly and attentive. The food was also very good, with plenty of flavor and spice. The portions were also generous, so we left feeling full and satisfied.

OMG, what is everyone talking about. We have been coming to Chaweng for 10 years and without doubt this one of the worst Indian meals we have had on the island. The place was busy which was a good sign but waiting nearly 20 minutes for a drink order (service was chaotic: seen people waiting 20 mins to get a menu) then when the food came it was bang average: curry was meant to be spicy but had to be sent back as it was bland. We won’t be back, better Indians in Chaweng and next time we will go to one of them.

We were there twice and already regret that this restaurant does not exist at our home. We walked 3km back and forth - and would have covered many more for these treats! Had different appetizers - all one poem! Chili Chicken is the best thing I've ever been allowed to eat. Just fantastic!!! The other main courses also great. Value for money absolutely mega!!! Absolute tip! Waitresses and chef who regularly inquires personally about well-being, incredibly friendly and courteous!!! If you want to go for a great Indian meal, this is the place for you.

Very good Indian restaurant
We thank the very friendly chef who comes to the table of each customer to see if all went well.
Besides being Muslim denomination I eat only halal and this restaurant serves only halal meat certified for all Muslims who are looking to eat some meat during their stays
Thanks again to the establishment

We left the mixed restaurant because as much as the food is excellent, we feasted. Perfect price quality level and portions were generous. But then the appalling service , not a smile , the boss seems to bother her and she doesn’t care about her customers . We arrived with 2 children and we felt directly that she was really not happy that we were there. I didn’t feel comfortable at all and it made me nervous throughout the meal , We tried not to make too much noise but with 2 small children we did our best .
Unfortunately we will not come back when we loved the food.
A big thank you to the chef who is him is very smiling and friendly because he went out a few seconds to greet us.
In short, you will have understood that we remain perplexed by this experience.

Dear valued guest, thanks for your feedback. As we know that our Ladies were very busy on work and some arguments with guest also about changing the table because those guest were saying to us to say another guest to leave the table for them. That's why lady boss was little bit angry with those guest but it was nothing about you or your kids.. we have many families coming to our restaurant with kids , we never have any problems with kids. Even we have son always run around in restaurant and play with another kids.
I hope you will understand the situation. We love to serve our guest with heart.
Please visit to our restaurant again if it's possible, it won't be same like another day.

Absolutely amazing food!! We enjoyed every bit of our meal and liked that it was chicken breast meat not thigh - bonus points for that!!! We highly recommend and will definitely eat here again before we leave Samui. Thank you to the chef and waitresses for fantastic service and food.

Don’t normally leave reviews but we went to Tandoori Palace because of the good reviews and it was the best decision I have made this trip. This is by far the best Indian food I have ever eaten.
The food was so good that me and my partner ate dinner at Tandoori Palace, came home and ordered another dish from Tandoori Palace for delivery to the hotel😂
AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING

Amazing! We had the honor to meet the owner/chef Rashick who is down to earth and makes amazing food. He welcomed us and we had a great conversation with him as he was open to questions. The food spoke for itself. Everything was delicious with amazing flavors. You are able to tell him how spicy you want it and he was able to do a great job for my wife who doesn’t like her food too spicy. We ordered garlic naan, butter naan, chicken Shashlik, butter chicken masala and masala tea. If you want a good atmosphere, good service, a break from Pad Thai and amazing food do yourself a favor and come here.

This Indian restaurant stands out from many others worldwide in two key points.
Unfortunately, you don't experience such a pleasant atmosphere these days. The boss and his Thai employees do everything they can to optimize the stay and, above all, the culinary experience for everyone.
It's simply a matter of respect for the customers when you accommodate the food wishes of your guests. The dishes are clearly fresh and homemade. The boss cooks and you can tell - simply brilliant.
No chilli, that's OK for him and he makes it happen. The naan is wonderfully fluffy.
Everything is very clean and family-friendly.
Even more important than the very good taste is probably the digestibility, even the next day. Not too much salt in the food, absolutely not spicy if you wish and the spices are so perfectly balanced that the food doesn't sit heavily on the stomach.
Recommended at any time and for everyone.
Tastes are different,
but eating out should be nice - slow food 😉
Thank you, I felt very comfortable every time.

I stayed near chaweng beach area for around a week and I had meal here for plenty of times and I must say this is one of the finest Indian restaurants in Thailand. The owner himself is very humble and attentive to customer needs. The food here is very tasty and prepared authentically Indian style. I ordered various dishes here during my stay like aloo mutter, aloo paratha , dal makhni and all very really delicious.
So if you are near chaweng beach area and craving for some good Indian food look no further and visit tandoori palace Indian restaurant.
Cheers!!•

Well, in terms of taste, I actually expected more from an Indian restaurant. I ordered three of these filled dumplings from the menu. In fact, they only brought me two. I asked the nice waitress why the menu said three but I only got two. I think the nice and kind girl tried to explain to me that there were only two, but oh well 🤔. The prices are pretty reasonable. 290 THB for a lamb soup that didn't have much in it is quite high by Thai standards. And the cleanliness of the toilets should perhaps be reconsidered, even for Thailand.

Dear valued guest.. We are so sorry for our services..
Dear guest.. Dumplings inside kofta curry gets softer. Sometimes those broken from serving spoon easily while take curry from bowl to plate.. We have standard portion and we never serve it less.
We apologize for toilet.. That is possible could be the reason for this review. Sometimes guest flushed tissue papers which causes the blockage in toilet even though we fixed the sign there about tissue. And when it's done once it takes times to get normal.

This restaurant has the best Indian food, hands down. The curries are flavourful and the paneer is amazing- they make the paneer from scratch and it’s so soft and succulent. The service is incredible. The staff are so friendly and they even bring you a wet wipe to wipe your hands after you finish eating.
The owner is very friendly and came and checked that I was satisfied with my meal, and shared that all of his meals are made from scratch by order. The portions are also very generous and bread selection is large and all very soft!
Definitely my favourite Indian food restaurant in samui! I’ve been back multiple times! Highly recommend.
