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.

We went here for 1st time try out and experience was terrible. Waitresses have been told not to provide you with all the information so that they can add up $ on the bills later even when you explicitly asked for. Food is decent but...nothing special but biggest scam this restaurant is doing with beverages. Even when you ask for normal water they will just get you glasses. They will make you think tap water filled in refillable waters is covered but wont tell you until payment which is $6 a bottle. Even if you ask they will ignore. Second thing is beverages prices are tricky and they will bring you pitcher even if you ask for normal drink and tell you thats how it comes. So pitcher will cost you $35 compared to normal drink $13. Moreover they will charge you for alcoholic automatically unless you tell them. So they are trying to upsell everything but under the table so they can make most money from beverages. When we asked the manager, he is also telling that we are not the first customer facing this issue and many more complaining same. On the top of that he says they are not making any money of Food Buffet so they have to make money from beverages. I told him its ok to think that way but dont scam your customers by not telling them anything. Overall if you want to go for food its ok place, nothing super special in food quality but more quantity. But be extra careful on anything that you order for beverages including water. They want $35 for buffet and try to cross your bill beyond $100 with drinks.More

Food was ok. However bottle's of water were placed on the table and no tap water offered than was charged for the bottle's of water. Patrons should be given the option whether to pay for bottled water or not!!!! Not happy Jan!!!!

When in Vancouver, do plan lunch or dinner buffet at Tandoori flame. They have large variety of Indian starters, soups, main course and deserts. Both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options are available. Food quality is of high standard and has authentic Indian food flavor.

We were amazed by the amount of food this place has a dinner buffet. The variety was wonderful to look at but not as tasty! Most of the kababs were bland but we sure did enjoy all the desserts. We thought the price was fair...for the variety but not for the taste and authenticity of the food served here. Would not come back again.More

Tricky practise of leaving a bottle of (Evian) water on your table and do not say anything about it when they seat you… true server comes and asks want a drink and when say water is fine they bring you some empty glasses. Again, they...say nothing about the water actually costing $6/ bottle…no one says anything and there is no sign or tag at the table. When you ask for more water… they bring another bottle, again not saying anything about the price… then when your dinner is done ( food was okay for a buffet) you find out you are paying $12 for two bottles of tepid water… Kind of a scam. Just be upfront when you are seating your guests say “the bottled water at the table actually costs $6… you can ask your server for regular water if you prefer.” Not happy with a cheating Tandoori Flame practise.More

If you are a vegetarian, please skip to the last paragraph. We went here for an early dinner on a weekend. They accommodated us at a nice table next to the window up on our request. They are undoubtedly the biggest Indian buffet in North...America. I have not seen such a huge variety of food anywhere in USA or Canada. They had everything from Dosas to Chaat to Tandoori items to Indo-Chinese to live dessert counters. The best part was that almost everything tasted good. Indian buffets usually do not serve the best quality or best tasting food, but not at Tandoori Flame. Every item was made as if one were to order ala-carte. The only negative was that sometimes the curries only had gravy in them, and they couldn’t refill chicken/paneer fast enough. They had more than 10 types of desserts and 6 varieties of ice-cream, including a live counter for jalebi and malpua. It has been years since I had jalebi that was made right in front of me. They also had live counter for naans, so you know they are fresh out of tandoor. Service was disappointing. The only time we were given water was when we sat at our table. We were in the restaurant for little over 1.5 hours and no one came back to refill our glasses. We also ordered some drinks, and no one came back to ask us if we wanted another drink. Also, be careful what you ask for while ordering non-buffet items as they charge for every little thing. One expects to use more napkins in a buffet as you would want to wipe your hands before going back to the buffet as you will be touching serving spoons or pick up new plates. There are no napkins anywhere and the servers are not available when needed as they are usually busy. This place has the worst hygiene . As I mentioned before, there are no napkins. I saw people who were touching serving spoons with dirty hands soiled with food. It was common for people to stand at the live counters and eat while the food was being refilled. For example, while people were waiting for naan to be prepared, couple of them were licking their fingers and used the same fingers to serve naan. It was also super common to mix serving spoons between veg and non-veg dishes. While serving naan, of them dipped the serving tongs in butter chicken in their plate and put it back as though nothing happened. I told this to the person behind the counter and he put it away, but as soon as I turned around, the server thought that I was not looking, and he put the same serving tongs back. This is completely unacceptable, specially as we are just getting back to normal after Covid. When I went to serve ice-cream, as soon as I touched the lid, my finger was covered in food grease. The whole lid handle was covered with food grease and God only knows what else. Overall, we were just disgusted with the lack of hygiene and carelessness of the staff. We loved the food, but we will never go back.More

Four of us thoroughly enjoyed the buffet but had a hard time choosing among all the options. For those who are a little unsure about Indian food there are some other options including mini pizzas. They just rolled out a new drink menu (alcoholic and...non-alcoholic) all of which look very tasty. We’d love to return when we’re in the area again.More
