3 different entrees and 3 appetizers, blown away by the flavors and spices through out our experience here. Ordering was pretty... simple on the digital screen (be prepared to read the digital menu ????) - and food was served very quick! Staff was veryfriendly and this has definitely been a great experience. We will definitely be back! Read more

This is some of the best Indian food I have had in Southern California. We ordered many dishes and everything was phenomenal. I... came here on my birthday and Priya made me feel so special. Not only was it delicious, but the food was presented beautifully(the mango chicken is my favorite color). Thank you for the amazing meal making my day better! Read more

We took take out from here. I made a phone order and the food was ready to be picked up when I arrived after 20 mins. The food... we ordered ( chicken biriyani and chicken Tikka masala ) were.good. chicken biriyani was better compared to other restaurants Ihad eaten in Carlsbad ( couple of restaurants). While taking my order , they specifically asked the spice level and medium level( 5/10) is also a little spicy for kids to eat. I will definitely try out other items in the menu next time. Update :04/30/22 Made a second visit, ordered chicken Tikka masala, chicken biriyani and naans. Curry and the biriyani was good. Onlypoint I would make is , the curry had too much of food color or something, even after washing the hands with soap it wasn'tgoing away completely. Chicken biriyani was good . Read more

Meteocre Indian food. I am Indian and have had Indian food at different restaurants along with authentic Indian food I can make... myself or family members have made for me. We have a long drive home so we just opted to try this place. Regretted it. Washoping the food was not going to disappoint me this bad. Chicken Tikka Masala was just okay. Goat Vindaloo was absolutelyhorrendous. They used red dye to get the colour to be THAT red, you can see by the BRIGHT RED potato in the picture. The goattasted really gamey and it tasted really old. Man I wish when I asked if they could do Lamb vindaloo, they said no and left itat a just no, they offered goat vindaloo instead, we're feeling kind of sick. It went in the trash. Rasmalai was made with thesame base as you would with kheer (rosewater/rose essence) Rasmalai is supposed to have cardamom flavour to it, but it was justokay, rasmalai is also supposed to have pistachio nuts, not pine nuts Galab Jaman was okay, not super duper soft but okay. Thegarlic on the garlic naan wasn't really cooked? Samosas were also just okay, only thing that was edible other than the MangoLassi which was pretty decent actually. Even the rice was slightly undercooked and lukewarm. Overall, we'll never be backagain. This is not how Indian food should taste. No way they would eat their own restaurant food. Waste of 70$ (not includingtip) Read more

Not sure how this place has 4.7 rating at the moment I am writing this review. But I had a really bad Indian food since long... time. I ordered the most famous Garlic Naan, and Paneer tikka masala. Garlic naan was literally like a garlic cracker, andpaneer tikka masala was so red in color that it did not even looked natural, and lacks in authenticity. My hands were red incolor even after washing my hands with soap, just imagine how unhealthy it is when you consume it. For those who are looking fortraditional North Indian food, this is not the place. Also the prices are off the roof for such an Indian restaurant. Iunderstand that the pandemic might be a reason for this price increase, but please keep up the quality and authenticity as weare paying high price. Also, be prepared to wait for your order, if you are in hurry or dropping by at your lunch time, makesure you have enough lunch break time. I still wanna give 3 star as this was just my first experience here, not sure if it ishow it is all the time though. I will try again for couple of times and update the review if needed. Read more

Update: 5 star plus still. Each dish has been amazing! Was feeling under weather and fresh food and spices helped me feel better... like a version of mom's chicken soup! ? The food here is amazing! Freshly cooked, high quality, generous portions and presentedwell. Prices reasonable especially for the quality. The flavor of the dishes are unique and the seasonings just magical. Everybite is a culinary delight! We have had other Indian food and nothing compares to Tumeric Hut! The staff work hard and are verykind and fun to get to know. We are fans and will definetly be back!! Read more

I've been so looking forward to place opening since they first put the "Coming Soon" sign 2 years ago. I was so worried that it... would never open bec of its delay do to Covid-19 but kept my hopes up every time I drove past and something inside had beenchanged. At last it opened and I'm so happy to report that the food is even better than what I was hoping for! The customerservice, and the ambience of the restaurant are impeccable and you get so much food at a great price. I plan on eating hereweekly! Read more

The food tasted and felt like comfort on a plate! It was our first time here, and we will be customers for life. Priya's... hospitality makes this restaurant! There's so much love put into the food, and she welcomes everyone with a smile. You feel likeyou're sharing a meal with a friend you've known forever. Thank you for making our night special. Read more
