"I do not have enough words for Indian Tadka. Oh my goodness. So so so yummy. The richness of flavor is amazing. The FOOD. The food. Oh so amazing. Certainly one of my top 3 favorite food (not just Indian places in Peoria. Whether you are local or just passing through, consider having a meal here.Expect to spend a little more here than at other nearby restaurants. However, considering the phenomenal flavor, the variety and quantity of spices involved in each dish, and the sheer amount of labor it would take to make these dishes at home, I feel the price is justified. I tend to take out a lot, but I would absolutely recommend dining in if you can! The staff is so kind and professional, and something about the restaurant just makes the food taste even better.For Midwestern snowflakes like me, order the mild or medium spice level with a lassie drink. Even medium spice level can feel hot to the Midwestern palate. Beware that some dishes are hotter than others if this is important to you, pay attention to the food descriptions when ordering. But oh, the burn is so worth it.A spicy culprit you might not expect is cardamom. Dont shy away from dishes with cardamom they are SO yummy but be aware that you could potentially bite down on a whole spicy seed pod if you arent careful!I have not even tried half the menu, but here are my personal favorites: Goat Korma (bone in , chicken vindaloo, or the Hyderabad biriyani with a sweet lassie and garlic naan. And the chilli paneer appetizer and samosas are amazing too you are with a group (or just very hungry .Vegetarian recommendations: Aloo Gobi, palak paneer, chili paneer appetizer, vegetable samosa appetizer, Baygan Bharta, yellow daily, tofu vindaloo, vegetable biriyaniRecommendations for sensitive eaters (mild spice : Butter chicken, anything Tikka masala, tandoori chicken, or palak paneer (palak paneer is a creamy spinach and cheese. Good for spice sensitive, but probably not good for picky eaters. . Order any of these with a mango lassie and plain or garlic Naan.For bone in goat dishes, be aware that you should eat carefully and may need to use your hands to help you eat around the little bones. But the goat is my favorite protein at Indian Tadka, so don't be scared to give it a try!I'm so excited to see this restaurant has expanded their menu and is now offering Sunday brunch! Can't wait to try it!"

"First, you take a seat and choose between a vegetarian or non-vegetarian option. They then bring out a stainless steel plate that resembles a Mickey Mouse head, complete with a piece of banana leaf—very cool! After that, two incredibly polite and friendly servers named Sahidhi and Madhu come around with containers filled with delicious dishes. Just mention the name of the dish when they serve it onto your plate, and you can ask for seconds or even thirds if your appetite allows. The service here is reminiscent of an affordable version of a Japanese kaiseki meal, combined with the exceptional service you’d expect from a high-end restaurant. I've dined in some pricey establishments where the service was lacking, possibly because I didn't meet their dress code. But here, despite the bustling atmosphere, the staff remain friendly and accommodating. In terms of the bhojanam, there are some dishes I enjoyed and a few I didn't care for, but overall, it was a positive experience. The menu changes each weekend, but some items, like chutney and jaggery rice, remain consistent. I also tried the Chole Bhatura and Dosa, which didn't impress me much. The prices are reasonable, so be sure to visit this place for an exceptional bhojanam experience before they change their menu or discontinue certain offerings like many Indian restaurants in the area. By the way, they even provide free Costco bottled water instead of tap water!"
