Tiffin Indian Cuisine South Philadelphia

dine-in service is great the staff are attentive the food is god-sent and their takeout is excellent. recently got their “spices of love” valentines deal and it was amazing , portions are generous too

I could drink their tikka masala sauce. SO yummy!!! Their staff is very kind and always quick with orders. I love their reusable take-out container problem and if you order on the website you earn “t-coins” to get discounts on future orders!

This is honestly among the worst Indian food I’ve ever had in my life. I am astounded at how many people love this place. It tastes like they added sugar and ketchup to the sauces. There were three in our party and we all had basically the same assessment.

We are working our way through all Tiffin locations and so far, this location and Bryn Mawr, PA are tied for #1. Nice, quiet location in South Philly. Mostly take-out and delivery which worked out great for us as we had the whole restaurant to ourselves! The service was friendly and efficient and the food came in pretty metal bowls. The mango lassis were great, as usual, and the Paneer Makhani was delicious. We also tried the Onion Bhaji also, which was lovely. The bathroom could have been cleaner but overall, we enjoyed it.

I’ve been ordering Tiffin occasionally for years. After a break I’ve started ordering again (this time through their website) and it’s consistently better tasting and a much better value than I remembered. As for the food, it’s as good as ever. The coconut cauliflower appetizer is very tasty, and their samosas are some of the best around! Things I really like about ordering from their website directly: 1. The T-coins are a great reward through their website. It saves me money! 2. The delivery is fast. 3. The reusable container option is amazing. So easy, and eliminates my guilt for creating more plastic waste.

I love the food at Tiffin, and it’s such a huge bonus that I can get all my takeout from them in reusable containers. They’re the only restaurant near me that I know of that does this, and it’s a big reason I come back again and again (the excellent food helps 😋)

I also only got this one pic because I was too busy eating to remember to snap more! Butter chicken is so rich and savory. Creamy and delicious! Lamb Roganjosh was seasoned well and had a nice kick to it. Samosa were also very delicious, very good filling and chutney. The roti and garlic nan were just ok. Roti did the job was slightly too dry. I know you dip roti but sometimes you can just eat it plain and it’s still good to munch on. These one needed sauce. The mango lassi is thicc and had a tart edge to it. One of the better Indian cuisine places near me but also could be better as well. They are a little slow with service but they are very nice!

Fantastic food - my go to for Indian. I keep trying other Indian places in South Philly nothing comes close. Delicious. Lunch special blew my mind and introduced me to new dishes. Got the chicken biryani delivered last time it was amazing. 10/10.

This was my first time eating drone here and The food is amazing I really love it tbh I enjoyed it The chicken was soft and tender, and the veggie were crispy.

This is a very well-spread out chain (literally, they're all over the Philly region - at least 10). What makes them cool is that they serve their takeout in reusable heavy plastic containers, and honestly, that is a huge reason to order from them. The only problem is then you have to return them, and despite being less than 2 blocks from them, I find it still takes me a week to do that. Their food is decent. It's very sweet and some of it tastes exactly the same to me (butter chicken and tikka masala), but maybe that's my uncultured swine side coming out. They definitely have like 5x the sauce ratio to the protein, which is slightly annoying, but I just put chickpeas in the leftover sauce the next day with my own rice, and all is forgiven. Be careful with the spice levels. Mild is very mild so we tended to get medium, but one time we got that, and we kneeling before hell's gates the whole time we were eating it. It was a near death experience, but I'll keep going back because it's affordable (especially with the lunch specials), close and eco friendly!

I don't know why this restaurant averages less than four stars. We finally tried it and loved the tandoori chicken and butter chicken (which due to my allergies they made dairy free)! Would definitely come back and refer others!

I'm not a huge fan of Indian food but my partner was craving Indian so we decided to grab some dinner here. I ordered the basic butter chicken (which came with rice) and a side of garlic naan. I also noticed they have panipuri so I was super excited to eat that! Mark Wiens put me on panipuri and I finally found a spot that sells it!! The food was amazing. Butter chicken was very flavorful. Garlic naan was delicious and Panipuri topped off the whole meal. Give this place a try if you're in the mood for Indian food. They won't disappoint. Keep in mind, they are short staff as well. Food may take longer then usual to come out but I promise it's worth it.

I love tiffin. My husband and I are regulars and the food is always delivered hot and a good quality and at a quick delivery speed. Sometimes the samosas can be a little drier or more oily, but still delicious nonetheless. What's considered 'medium' or 'hot' spice level can vary, so that has made it tough to eat my meal at times - still declious, just too spicy for me sometimes! This small local chain delivers the Indian you hope to get when you want takeout on a Friday movie night.

Against my better judgement, I stopped at this Tiffin on my way home from an appointment. Their sign said open, but it was before the time that their menu said they were opened. I went inside and asked if they were open and the guy said, "yes, for takeout only." Perfect for me. I placed an order for Chicken Tikka Masala, naan bread, and samosas. I got my food and drove home anticipating the taste. As I'm putting the food on the plate, I notice these square holes in all of the chicken pieces (see photo). They reused old left over kabob chicken. Annoyed, but hopeful that I would at the very least still like the food, I started eating it. Unfortunately, NOOO!!! I can taste whatever herbs, spices, and marinades they used for the chicken for whatever type of kabobs this chicken had intended to be used. I'm so disappointed. Such conflicting tastes. I should have just went to my usual Tiffin location. Never be the first to order from these restaurants, and certainly not this location. They'll just give you left over food that someone abandoned. And it's not like Indian food is cheap. I'm really annoyed by this experience. The two stars is because the samosas and naan bread taste good. No stars for this chicken tikka masala kabobs.

This would be 3 stars if it wasn't so expensive. I've had Tiffin at other locations a few times over the past 7 years and it was always decent, so when my usual Indian places were closed last night and I was craving it, I felt safe ordering from Tiffin even though their prices were a bit on the high side. We got lamb chettinad, chicken tikka masala, and garlic naan. The naan was great. The entrées were unfortunately sickeningly sweet pools of sauce with a few chunks of meat thrown in. The meat was just ok. But the sauce lacked any complexity and to label it as subpar because it is inauthentic isn't quite the problem. I've enjoyed the Indian food from takeout/cafeteria spots like the one in Liberry Place more than this. I dont know if it is just this location, or what is going on. But this is just lazy and borderline tough to eat due to the sweetness. I just can't believe I paid $20 for the lamb. Please don't make my mistake, and if you haven't tried any other Indian places but this and like it, you're in for a treat once you start looking around!

Great Indian Spot Food comments: I've been three times now, and I'll be adding it to the list of go to's in the area. I've had the veggie samosas (4.5) and the Onion Bhaji (4.5), and the bhaji are amazing. The chicken in the chicken tikka (5) masala was cooked very nicely, and the paneer dishes (5) are lovely. I will continue to go here, and work my way around the menu, as I'm sure it's all delicious. Other notes: They use reusable Tupperware for pick up, which I highly appreciate and that will be a big reason I support them. My one negative is the delivery time. It took over an hour and 20 minutes to receive my food. Do pick up if you can, as I haven't had a problem there. All in all it's a good Indian spot to have in your back pocket, and I say try it out!

First first Indian restaurant experience and it didn't disappoint. I had the Chicken Tikki Masala which came with unlimited white rice. It was a very delicious filling meal. I don't remember the appetizer I tried, (had peas in it) but it was also delicious. I would recommend this place to anyone. The service was also exceptional too

Love Tiffin since I first discovered on Girard so many years ago. They deserve the chain they've established, although I'm bummed some of the original recipes have been modified to suit the masses. Progress it is, and I'll still swing by here n there. Many Kudos always and as far as food goes, you're not getting the original, but the food and the people are still excellent.

I've been out of town for several months due to covid. I knew the storm was coming so I figured..I'll order indian so I have plenty of leftovers for the next few days I won't want to leave the house anyway! My go-to indian spot has closed...so I figured I'll order from the next highest rated. I got butter chicken and saag paneer with some naan, all medium heat. The saag was great, naan also great (but when is bread not good) my qualms were with the butter chicken. The chicken was dry, far too spicy (and I like spice) and had a flavor I wasn't expecting. Completely tossed the chicken..that was a waste. The rice was also very dry - it wasn't good to start and then reheating completely ruined it. Service was fast, food showed up exactly when expected! But next time I'll try somewhere else...

I was meeting a friend for a work lunch and we both had a hankering for some Indian food. I've always wanted to try the food at Tiffin, even though it is a chain establishment which sometimes makes it difficult to gage do to the level of expectation or, lack thereof. I kept it simple and ordered the Tandori Chicken. I wasn't wowed, but I wasn't disappointed neither. The meal pretty much did what it was supposed to do; satisfy my hunger, without disappointing my taste buds. Decent amount of seasoning, and the chicken was well prepared. The vegetable samosas were probably the best thing from the entire service. I wasn't disappointed with my lunch but Tiffin didn't quite make my list of one of my go to establishments, I would say this is would be a great place in a crunch but they do take their time to prepare your meal, and I have respect that. However, if I have more time to enjoy a meal, I probably wouldn't consider this establishment.

I was craving Indian food and hadn't ordered from Tiffin in a while. Placed the order via Yelp (which was somehow way less expensive than placing the order directly with a delivery app!) and patiently waited the hour plus I was quoted. Overall, my experience was solid. The food arrived hot and correct as-ordered. That said, some things were better than others. The vegetable samosas were hot and crispy - a nice start. The garlic naan was also spot on. Of the three heartier dishes we ordered, the tandoori shrimp was easily my favorite. We also got the saag paneer and chicken tikka masala. I thought the saag paneer was nice, but also very rich. The chicken tikka masala was my least favorite. The sauce was really sweet and the chicken was rubbery. I'd consider ordering from Tiffin again, but would likely spend a little more to order from one of my preferred spots, instead.

I've been meaning to try this place after it was recommended to me many months ago. Wasn't exactly chomping at the bit when my co-stay-in-drink-wine-and-order-fooder wanted Indian (that's what I get for asking even though I'm craving panang curry). Fortunately I'm accommodating. I've tried my fair share of "Indian Restaurant" and "Indian Cuisine"s in this town. Tiffin was already scoring brownie points in my book for originality. Quick scan of the menu reveals numerous vegetarian options. I decided to forego the colon stress test and go with the classic that is saag paneer, medium spice. Co-orderer requested something with eggplant so I threw in a baingan bharta and of course, some naan for good measure. Our catching up sesh absorbed my attention until my duodenal ulcers' gnawing reminded me the food hadn't arrived. Time check was about 50 minutes after I placed the order. Ok, still within the 45-60 min ETA window, fair. My attention span subsequently became significantly shorter. 15 min later I had had enough and gave the restaurant a call. The phone number in the email was a fax number so, blame it on the wine, I started panicking that this was just an Indian mafia food delivery con scheme. The real number listed on google settled my nerves. It ultimately required THREE telephone calls for the food to come. Delivery man left the food at the desk (as I instructed) without calling me, nor did the desk lady, to inform me of the food's arrival. Total order-place-to-delivery-time was 90 minutes. Unacceptable. As I was waiting for the food to come I was fantasizing about how I was going to nail this fucking place to the wall on yelp. For starters, they give you a giant tub of basmati rice. Secondary to my emaciation, I poured a giant mountain of that shit on my plate prior to topping it with the saag paneer, doused some hot sauce on that shit, and dug in. I can't particularly comment on the authenticity to the cuisine but regardless, this was fucking DELICIOUS. Quite possibly the best Indian I've had so far in Philly. It was really creamy (#diet2018 isn't going well) and flavorful. MMMMM. I'm salivating at the thought. They could've given some more naan tho... My friend left her leftovers, which I wasn't about to complain about. I poured more hot sauce on that this afternoon when I finished it off for lunch prior to being ABRUPTLY reminded she ordered hers spicy. I can legit still feel that shit burning a hole in my stomach as we speak. Anyways, in conclusion, the food is delicious but the delivery is a fucking joke. I'd love to order it again but christmas is likely to come first.

Ordered delivery through the app and 1.5 hours later found out that the restaurant decided to cancel my delivery. I had received an email confirmation. I live within the delivery zone. The restaurant didn't call or email to notify me of the cancellation. I called and after waiting on hold was told that they cancelled it and "tried to reach me". The reason seemed to be they just didn't want to deliver it. They said we could pick it up and they'd give us a discount. We reluctantly went to pick it up because it was late, they gave us a paltry discount as an apology, and we had limited options for other restaurants. When we got home we discovered the food was terrible!!!! I've eaten from multiple Tiffin locations and have never had such bad food. The fried items were soaked in grease and tasted like they'd been fried hours earlier then reheated. The spice levels were way off (we like our Indian food spicy), and the taste was watered down and sad. Tiffin lost a loyal customer, never again.

got take out last week - order was prepared quickly and was delicious. i got the family size butter chicken, which i ate myself over the course of my day. the sauce was very good !

I was working at the hospital and one of the workers said they really liked this place so I was happy that when i searched it on yelp, yelp eats was an option! It was super easy to order and had free delivery. Here's the breakdown of what I got: Chicken tikka masala: the chicken was really good. Moist with still a char on it. What threw me was the actual base of the tikka masala, it was really sweet with almost like a bbq flavor which i wasn't used to. NOTE: this dish does come with basmati rice. so don't freak out when you order. overall, this was just okay Vegetable samosa : I really enjoyed the samosa itself. I usually love the sauces that come with it too, green cilantroy and a sweet chutney. but i really did not like the green sauce on this one. but the sweet chutney was on point. Garlic naan: not as thin or as garlicy as i would have liked. it was overall just okay and i've definitely had better. All in all, this place was okay. it was good with the delivery and prices were decent. It will do for a convenient Indian meal, but i've definitely had better and wasn't too much of a fan.

This place has excellent North Indian food. They serve my favorite biriyani in Philly. Frankly I'm not sure how their rating is so low despite most reviews being pretty good. Service in person is good, too.

I moved into the area recently and thought I'd give it a try when I starting craving some Indian food. I did takeout and ordered the garlic naan and butter chicken. It was delicious! The chicken and naan had a subtle charred flavor that made this scrumptious. I'd definitely purchase again!

My boss and I were both craving Indian cuisine and even though there was a new spot right near our office, we decided to order takeout from Tiffin instead. I was disappointed in the quality of the takeout experience. The food was pretty good but their takeout methods are unacceptable. We ordered two separate lunch specials. However, only received one small container of rice. Our appetizers were both in the same container along with the sauces. There were no utensils, no plates to share a lunch that was never meant to be shared at all. No napkins either. Not to mention, the portions were very small. We called and complained, they responded by saying we had to ask for all that stuff. The bag was stapled shut when it was handed to me. I now know to check whenever ordering takeout. I wouldn't get takeout here again, sadly. I do love Indian food though and the flavors were quite nice.

Have ordered from here a many times and every time the food has been delicious... except half of the time they mess up the heat level. We always order medium heat but some times it comes wayyyy spicier then others. I'm very happy with the ACTUAL medium heat, so when they give me the same heat level I ordered I would rate 5 stars!! Overall definitely recommend this place.

I struggled between 2 and 3 stars. This review is based on one Grubhub delivery. I've eaten at various Tiffins before and had delivery from them, though I can't swear from which. But this delivery was definitely from this Tiffin and I'm confining my judgment to this order. Tiffin is coasting on its reputation. I really didn't enjoy my tandoori chicken dish, the chicken was cloying and monotonous. Basmati rice was truly tasteless, I have no idea why, plain basmati rice usually tastes rich. There are just too many superior Indian options to bother with this. As always, Tiffin orders are well-packaged I'll give them that.

This review is for food delivery. I'd ordered the meal in advance & the order arrived on time. Here's a summary of the food. I use ^ to indicate a half-star and * for a full star. So, ***^ means 3.5 stars: APPETIZER *** Cauliflower Bezule was tasty with coconut, although a bit soggy. This dish may not travel very well ($7) MAINS (All vegetarian) **** Malai Kofta: veggie "meatballs" with raisins in a fragrant creamy sauce was soft and tasty ($12) ***^ Saag paneer: cheese cubes in a creamy spinach sauce were also good ($12) ***^ Navrattan Korma: veggies in a creamy sauce were very nice ($12) *** Chana Masala was basic, nothing special ($12) **^ Aloo Gobhi: potato in a bland tomato-based sauce, not super flavourful but it was ok ($12) **^ Dal Makhani was fine, nothing special ($12) Rice was included. No chutneys or relishes were supplied. Solid food but rather pricey. Each vegetarian main was $12 for a pint. I also ordered a baigan bharta but got another dish instead. It was good, but I'm not sure what it was called. Aside from that mistake, the service & delivery were fine. I'd order from them again. 3+ stars

I've been meaning to try this chain. It just so happens that I was at an event not too long ago, and they catered from Tiffin for lunch (score!) I thought the food was fairly decent. The catered menu was all vegetarian so I was happy to dive right into all the offerings. I tried their samosa, onion bhaji, dal tadka, channa masala (with butter naan), and gulab jamboon for dessert! All the offerings were fairly decent - general Indian food options. I think they did a good job seasoning the dal tadka and the onion bhaji was a stand out amongst the options (it was all gone by the time it was time for seconds!) The spread also included white rice but I found it unnecessary. The food was hot upon arrival and was able to keep well considering the cold elements (it was an outdoor event with tents.) I would've appreciated more options to spice up the food with some chutneys or masala. I can't fault the restaurant since the food was ordered by the event planner. I guess I will just have to visit their city locations and see for myself if there are options amp up the spice: )!

If it weren't for places like Tiffin, South Philadelphia would still be a sea of bad pizza and trite yet vaguely Italian dishes. So they get a +1 just for being themselves. I really think having diversity in cuisine is important to the neighborhood considering the direction it's going. HOWEVER, my continuing patronage of this place puts me in a great position to be critical. Now, I love me some Indian food. And I was fortunate enough to grow up in a city where you could find the best damn Indian food in the world, third to India and London. When Tiffin first opened, it was a shining beacon of excellent Indian food. And philly sorely lacks Indian food. Lamb rigs josh was great. Samosas are dope. Saag is amazing. The rice was and still is to die for. Idk what happened but at some point Tiffin started this slide into mediocrity. And after a few trips there, and some orders I accepted it. Initially I was in denial. I didn't want my favorite Indian place to be falling apart. But it was true... So. Here we are. Tiffin is still there. Still soon a damn done happy hour. Still killing a few dishes. But man, as a whole it really dropped a few notches. I'm happy they are still there, but it crushes my soul that they lost a few steps in their cuisine game. Environment is great. Service is great. Local delivery often comes before the anticipated time. I'd like to say one more time that the happy hour is great. Great specials on food and drinks and definitely worth dropping by. I'm just sad how not went from Indian fine dining to simply being acceptable. And Philly is left without a decent Indian food place eat again...

Always fast delivery and super good/consistent food:) definitely would recommend their cauliflower manchurian

My favorite Indian food delivery in Philly! I usually get Saag Paneer, Chicken Tikki Masala, and a lamb dish. Tiffin completely nailed each dish! Delivery for 3 entrees and garlic naan took a little over an hour at 5 pm on a Sunday. A tad slow but everything was absolutely delicious!

This spot is amazing. Lisa was amazing in helping recommend food. The food was amazing and service was even better. would recommend to anyone who is looking for great food at a great price. Definitely recommend the Samosa chat and the chicken briyani.

Food is Great! And delivery guy is always timely/professional. Also if you're not ordering directly from Tiffin's website (tiffin.com), then you're missing out on rewards and much better prices/deals! I made the mistake of purchasing through a deliver app and the price was over 50% more- such a rip off. Finally Tiffin offers generous family portions. We typically order butter chicken and lamb curry.

We usually don't order from here but thought we'd give it a try. Bad choice. The Saag and Aloo Gobhi are so full of fennel that we couldn't taste the actual food. We ended up throwing it away because it was inedible. Such a waste of food and money. The Tikka Masala vegetable was exciting to order because usually places don't offer straight up vegetarian tikka masala. But this was more like a tomato soup than a tikka masala. The Dal Tadka was the best thing and it still was only ok. I guess if I didn't know good Indian I would like this. But I do. So I don't.

Great quality, great flavor, get customer service! I ordered a decently large meal for myself, significant other and his father. Portions were great especially for a family style dinner. We ordered, two onion bhaji (compare to onion rings if you've never tried) lamb brianni (lamb rice with cashews and raisins), sagg paneer (creamed spinach and cheese squares), the spicy to me wasn't as spicy as I like it but you can request in the comment section to make it extra spicy. Overall it was great, the order arrived on time, however it was missing an onion bhaji, when I called to inquire the guy was so understanding polite, he apologized and said he would have his driver back over ASAP, not long after the driver came back with hot fresh onion bhaji and rice pudding! Literally the best take out experience I've ever had!

I've been ordering Tiffin takeout periodically during the lockdown and it's such a nice treat!! Every dish we've tried is such high quality and seasoned to perfection. The portion sizes are perfect for my family because there's even enough left over for lunch the next day! They block the door with a table for pickup orders to keep their workers safe which I really appreciate! Will be ordering again soon, thank you Tiffin!

I dream of this places food. The samosas, the sauce, even the rice tastes better than normal rice?? Super vegan accommodating too- either it's marked vegan or they make it vegan for you. That veggie chattinad is what dreams are made of.

Well, long story short, my experience was really bad. I ordered chicken tikka masala as recommended by staff, it was sweet in taste, which it is not supposed to be. That's not authentic Indian food. Secondly, they charged me 2.50 $ for just couple of rings of onions as sides ( not fried onion rings) without telling me So, all in all I paid 18 $ just for one tikka masala, that's too not authentic. So, not worth going there.

Everything was great. Food was great. Must check it out. Lisa was very helpful! Great place to go in south Philly!

Tiffin has a niche market in South Philly. They have always delivered in a timely manner and better yet pickup is ready quickly. There is never anyone in the South Philly location but they do a killer delivery and pickup service. My go to is the garlic naan with any entree option. I wish the food was a bit spicier but that is a personal preference. It is plenty hot for others that I have ordered with.

LITERALLY the best Indian food... EVER. Tiffin is what I compare every other Indian Restaurant to...and, they all end up failing in comparison. Don't get me wrong, I have had some great Indian food other places, but they aren't as good as this gem. I was never really exposed to Indian food growing up because my parents did not eat it. I first had it about 7 years ago and my mind was blown. It instantly hit the top of my list of favorite foods to eat. I conveniently live near Tiffin so it was an obvious choice when I first moved to the city, and boy was I in for a treat. Seriously.... just eat here (or order delivery/takeout) and be amazed. Highly Recommend: Tikka Masala (I normally get Paneer, but anything will be great) Baingan Bharta (to die for....soooo good) Cauliflower Bezule ... the list would probably just be their entire menu, so I am going to stop here.

Toronto Nonexistent server. Completely baffled guy in tshirt was confused at how we wished to sit down and eat. We had to walk up to the bar let him know we wished to be served. Came to take our order had no idea what was on the menu and walked away equally as confused. Food was below par and nothing resembling what we ordered and expected. Out of pure pity and lack of time for anything else did we stay and eat there. Unbelievable lack of service. There was 3 people in the restaurant and nobody resembled an employee. Everyone kept reading the paper or focused on their phone as we walked in. Plenty of visible space to sit yet nobody seemed to know of any. None of the used tables were cleared of the post apocalyptic dining that had taken place prior to our entrance.

Just not worth it. Overpriced. Tiny portions. Way too long of a wait for delivery. 8 paid $15 to wait an hour and a half for chicken tikka...and got 7 pieces of chicken total. 7. They can't be bothered to throw in a couple pieces of naan either. place is less than a mile away and the food is slow cooked, how could it possibly take that long? The flavor is nothing to write home about either. I'll be looking for a new place for Indian food.

The best Indian I've had in Philly so far - at least among those that will deliver in Queen Village. The samosas are excellent, every curry delicious, the tandoori was the moistest I've ever had. Spot on and big portions!

I guess I should have known I would be underwhelmed when I wasn't asked a spice level when ordering.... I was in the neighborhood and thought I would check in and see if Tiffin has improved its offerings -they really haven't. I got saag Paneer and am convinced it was made with mozzarella - is that even legal? I do like mozzarella, but not in my saag paneer. The service was very good, the restaurant appeared clean and price and quantity seemed in proportion quality just wasn't there. There didn't even seem to be a hint of spice.

We were patiently awaiting the opening of Tiffin, particularly since we live so close and really enjoy Indian food. I'm so glad we went! We started with the green pea ginger kulcha which was interesting. Husband liked it more than me. I went safe and ordered the chicken tikka masala, while he ordered two apps, the indian sloppy joe and the dungeoness crab. The little sliders were very small, but very delicious! The bread itself was warm and crispy and the sloppy joe was extremely flavorful. He really liked the crab, which was a bit spicy for me, but a good enough portion that he was full. My dish? My dish was WONDERFUL. Might be my favorite new place for tikka masala... The prices were pretty reasonable, too. I was skeptical of that, but I think they found a good balance of class for a bit less. The sauce was so good that we ordered some garlic naan to ensure we got all of it and it paired very well with the sauce, just as our friendly and knowledgable server said. Tffin Bistro's menu successfully fuses traditional Indian dishes with other styles of food without venturing too far from the spices and flavors you're used to. We definitely suggest it!

Their delivery service sucks. I would review about the food but an hour and a half later... it's still not here. Yeah... it sucks. Note - said driver is en route - i live about 5 blocks away... i was just too lazy to walk. I wonder how long it takes to driver to drive 5 blocks. Ridic.

Truly one of the only places in south Philly to get authentic Indian cuisine. Indian food takes time to prepare, but Tiffin somehow balances traditional Indian cooking styles with fast service. The dining room is small and uncomplicated. It is a modern take on Indian decor. Warm colors, clean linens, and candle lit tables. In the summer there are a few tables set out on the sidewalk. There is something magical about eating al fresco on a warm summer night, and the ethnic food adds to the romance of it.

I've always been a fan of the food, since the Girard location opened. Last night was my first time in the South Philly location. The food was excellent as always. I tried chocolate tea at the end of the meal which was my first time and it was amazing! What most impressed me most was the service. The (manager?) went out of his way to be accommodating and friendly. It was a pleasurable meal and evening.

Food here is pretty good. The service, however, was really slow. I had to order iced water twice before I got any. It is also fairly expensive for what it is. I liked the food but there is a lot that I would change about this place. Four stars for good food and BYO

This review isn't about the food, which is decent but overpriced, but rather about the terrible customer service. We ordered for pick up through their online service and waited the suggested hour before coming to pick our food up. When we arrived, they hadn't even started cooking our order and blamed it on their online system (even though they were able to pull up the order once we got there...). They asked us to wait another 20 minutes, which I wouldn't have minded if they had given us a beer or something to help right the mistake. Instead, we were charged full price, barely given an apology, and made to wait over an hour and a half for our food. I really hope Tiffin wises up to the way they should handle customers they have inconvenienced. I won't be dining there again solely based on the incredible lack of customer service.

This place consistently takes forever to deliver. For example, ordered at 5:30, still not here at 7P. When I've called to check on the order, there is no apology, no discount, nothing. It's my own fault for giving them chances! Also, know that when you order, you're only going to get 3, maybe 4 morsels of meat/chicken. The rest is just sauce. It is, again and again, a completely awful experience.

I ordered delivery (lamb korma-medium heat- and onion naan). It came on time, was hot, and tasted amazing. The heat was exactly what I expected and wanted. Lamb korma is one of my favorite dishes and this was the best I've ever had. My only note is that my delivery came without any plates/utensils and I had to call to my hotel's reception desk for some so that I could eat it. But that didn't take away from how good the food was or the service I received. I would absolutely order again.
