A neighborhood spot on South Jackson
Tandoori Cafe is Seattle's Central District kitchen — where bold spices, a crackling clay oven, and genuine hospitality come together around every table.
Tandoori Cafe | Our Story
Rooted in the Central District
South Jackson Street has always been a street with character — diverse, historic, and full of life. We found our home here because this neighborhood deserved a kitchen that matched its spirit.
The Clay Oven at the Center
The tandoor is one of the oldest cooking vessels in the world — fired to intense heat, it chars and caramelizes everything with a smokiness no other method can replicate.
Food That Earns The Trip
From slow-simmered curries to sizzling tandoori meats and naan baked to order — every dish is built on spice work that takes time and can't be faked.
