Tamba Lounge offers best Indian cuisine in Las Vegas

I’ve always believed that the atmosphere of a restaurant speaks just as loud as its food, especially in Las Vegas. Tamba Indian Cuisine on the Las Vegas strip not only blends old traditions with modern aesthetics, but also takes the exotic and makes it familiar.

The space in Tamba features warm, rich colors reminiscent of India’s traditional spices. Murals, Indian-imported furniture and artwork give the restaurant an authentic feel, while plush seats, dramatic lighting and chic style in the hip lounge bring it back to contemporary times.

Giving an updated spin on tradition seems to be a philosophy applied to both design and food at Tamba.

The menu is stocked with classic Indian cuisine. But the chefs at Tamba have stretched beyond tradition and have used these recipes as inspiration to create new dishes, which help Tamba set the standard for elegant Indian cuisine.

The restaurant also features an impressive list of vegetarian dishes, which the chefs have put together as masterfully as the rest of the menu. With choices like the Bangan Bharta, a clay oven baked eggplant dish blended with sautéed onions, tomatoes and garlic cloves, it’s evident that these vegetable plates weren’t simply added to the menu as afterthoughts.

Melding the old and the new works remarkably well in a city that constantly redefines itself. Tamba is an excellent example of making traditions feel new again.

For those of you who have never had Indian cuisine, a visit to Tamba will set the bar well above any other. Tamba really is the perfect place to explore the fresh, exotic flavors of India.
