About this business
The extensive menu at Tanjore can be overwhelming, but the patient wait staff are happy to assist. For native Indians or diners bored with the typical curry dish, the breadth of choices is a delight. For some variety, try Bengali or Western Indian dishes. The entrees contain no beef or pork, but they're so good that you won't miss the meat.

Indian food - not so good I tried this Indian restaurant when I was new in town. This is probably one of the worst Indian food I have tasted in the Boston region. The prices were really high. The decor was good, but cannot think of any other positives. Also there is limited parking available. PROS: ambience CONS: high price, not tasty, no parking
Tanjore is mediocre Tanjore had been recommended by a friend, so we tried it out. Big mistake. The food was bland, and having eaten in a lot of Indian restaurants, I was not impressed. It was also kind of expensive.
Tanjore is terrible Definitely a bad restaurant. Not only was the food below average but the treatment Indians got at this restaurant is also pathetic. Being an Indian restaurant run by Indians they are racists and favor white skin over brown skin. Indians get least priority and are kept waiting forever. I totally hate this place. There is nothing "Tanjore" about this place!

With its extremely fresh and abundantly flavorful cuisine, Tanjore is Harvard Square?s best Indian restaurant. The breads, including the savory garlic naan, perfectly puffed poori, and peshwari naan stuffed with ground nuts and raisins, make your mouth sing. The piquant basmati rice, with cumin seeds and caramelized onion, is exquisite; and the tamarind, mango and mint chutney sauces are divine. But the dishes, layered with flavors that tantalize the taste buds, are even better. Favorites include delicious dosas filled with ... read more
Worst place, worst service!! – Worst place to go if you are looking for a good dinner experience...seriously..... all the dishes they make are rather pre cooked, i have no idea why people tend to like them as much as they do! Adding to that is the service which I personally do not think is the best! you get seated and your order is taken and you get your bill and thrown out! nothing that pleases me about their service. Enter the restaurant after 10 pm and people there would look at you like they want you to get the hell out ... read more
Don't waste your time here! – I've been to Tanjore for their lunch buffet and for occasional take out snacks. Their dining area is cold and often unpleasant and their food isn't anything special. They add 18% tip to parties of 6 or more, which is completely understandable under normal circumstances, but you're there for the lunch buffet with horrible service (they never brought us naan which is the only aspect of service they are supposed to do during the buffet) what is the 18% for? All their dishes taste the same. They use... read more
