American Tandoor Information

American Tandoor is the newest restaurant to come to Tysons Corner Center, offering vibrant, flavorful dishes that you will want to eat everyday. Karan Singh, the man behind American Tandoor, has a strong connection with both Indian and America cuisines. Being raised in both Northern India as well as the United States, he has developed a passion and understanding of both cultures and the crave-able flavors that are abundant in each. Layer that on top of his genuine interest and love of the restaurant and hospitality industry, and the path to the creation of American Tandoor is clear. The food showcases India’s eclectic culinary heritage with the influences of contemporary American dining. Indian classics such as Saag Paneer, have a particular American twist with Jack cheese and white cheddar. Or try the Samosas, filled with luscious sweet potato and a touch of marshmallow; from warm, building spice to feisty and fiery, the menu offers a variety of dazzling flavors, styles and ingredients. The kitchen toasts and grinds 16 unique spice blends in-house, contributing to the notable tangs within American Tandoor’s menu. These house made spices create colorful dishes like our Pork Vindaloo and Creamy Cardamom Grits, which is gentle on the palate and serves up delicious come-back bites. If you prefer to graze lightly, relish in the Crispy Lotus Root Salad, a juicy jumble of cool, crunchy lettuce, sweet peppadew peppers, citrus and basil. Tandoor cooking is a perfect foil for the aromatics of gin; and gin is the focus of the cocktails at the 1920s London-influenced bar. All beverages from cocktails to mock-tails are made with the freshest of ingredients, and are all made from scratch. The beverages are enlivening and expertly seasoned with flavors from East India including mango, pomegranate, chai, coconut, and more! Enjoy a Fig Royale, which is a delightful mix of cardamom-infused gin, fresh strawberries and a dash of bubbly.
