Reviews for Turmeric Indian Cuisine in Gretna, LA
I haven't been to the buffet, only dinner. It's a little dark, in that old-school intimate way. The tables are well-lit, though.... It creates a sort of bubble for your table. The staff is friendly. It's Indian food, so I'm not familiar with most of the menu.The staff answers questions and makes recommendations. Everyone has been courteous, and the restaurant is clean. The food isrich and flavorful. Everything always smells delicious. Be adventurous and ask questions. They want you to enjoy your meal asmuch as you want to. I've had only good experiences here.

Awesome food, but the best part was the service. We were a party of 7 and we got simply the best waiter in all nola. We are here... for just a few days and this was definitely the best food and the best waiter. Thank you so much! Even with a few days only leftwe are thinking about coming back. Read more

This place is one of the best Indian restaurants in New Orleans. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone who would... like to try authentic Indian food. Great service and amazing food. We went to this place twice during our 3 day trip in NewOrleans last weekend. Tried Lasuni Gobi, Chicken Lollipop, Dal Makhani, Paneer Tikka Masala, Chicken Curry and Dal Tadka.Everything was really good. My personal favorite was Dal Makhani and Chicken Curry. Also, garlic naan was perfect. Willdefinitely stop by during our next trip to New Orleans. Read more
I visited the restaurant with 3 of my friends and we just loved the place. Easily the best Indian restaurant in NOLA. We ordered... Chicken Lollipop and lasooni gobi for the appetizers and chicken chettinand, paneer makhani and dal for entree. Everything wassuper delicious and completely authentic. I would highly recommend this place and would definitely go back if I get a chance. Read more
So I tried Turmeric last year for lunch from the menu and the food was mediocre at best so never went back again until last... Sunday night dinner buffet (5.30-9p). We tried everything from chicken soup (good) to chicken tikka masala (didn?t tasteanything like chicken tikka masala), curry chicken had a South Indian flavor to it, tandoori chicken was fresh and succulent,veggie pakoras were alright, nan were ok. I looked at the vegetarian options on the buffet and they didn?t appeal to me sodidn?t bother. The buffet was $18 bucks each and on the check, the waiter charged $5 each for my 1 and 2-year-old. Seriously,and I did ask the waiter about it, who does that and his response dumbfounded me, ?customers lie about the age of their babiesso we charge $5 each for every child.? Really? I?m pretty sure he?s single and doesn?t have the slightest idea how much it costto raise a baby, let alone 2 babies In this day and age, probably as much as running this restaurant. Well, I wrote that down onthe receipt and considered $10 their tip (I mean, $50 for buffet for 2 adults, hmm). I mean, this supposedly loyal waiter whocouldn?t even answer properly when asked, at what age the children eat free? So I hope the owner will take care of him because Isurely didn?t leave any tip. Mediocre food and bad customer service, I would advice everyone to skip this Indian restaurant andgo to Mantra. P.S. there was no air conditioning so to eat Indian food while sweating it out is your idea of fun, be my guest Read more
Really nice! We went during the Sunday buffet and it was SO good. Well stocked and managed consistently. The waitress checked... on us in a timely manner without rushing. Everyone was so nice. Great food and service! Read more
