Turmeric & Co — Restaurant in Nashville-Davidson

You get a unique experience as a patron. It's giving Tiki bar meets a la cart street food tapas....but indian food tapas which is a bit odd. The cocktails are balanced, inventive and creative. This is a solid stop for locals with a great happy hour and rotating food and drink menu. I could recommend this spot to travelers but perhaps not large groups as seating is limited and a bit awkward for more than 3 or 4 peoole. The 615 Chicken is not at all spicy, but somewhat flavorful. The Cashew Korma Mac and cheese puts an unexpected and delightful spin on a traditional favorite all though a bit heavy on the dairy and difficult to digest. Food was okay. Its not at all a traditional indian spot (They don't have rice or curry!!) Service was solid. It's in a food court so the atmosphere is hit or miss depending on who is in the establishments surrounding areas. Music was awful to be honest. Onion pakora was overcooked, almost burnt and perhaps too thinly sliced (fritters would have been better) Some gluten free options, very few vegan options but they are there. No pork at all on the menu except the “lamb” meatballs which are more pork than lamb so if you don't eat pork you should know about it honestly a bit disingenuous not to tell people that it has pork imo. My biggest gripe is the pricing compared to the other spots in Hunters station or even Nashville…this place gives you the least bang for your buck. 22 dollars for ramen noodles is insane. Although the tosatda is good 14 bucks for a dish that small is nore amuse bouche than apetizer and certainly not shareable. All in all it was just an Okay experience and the Non alcoholic options are limited and leave much to be desired (Marsala soda is polarizing to say the least). The butter chicken tostada is by far the best thing on the menu shouout to the genius behind that dish. The staff is super friendly and the culinary execution Is solid. The concept itself is just a bit off in my opinion. I do recommend this place as a one off but certainly not an everyday joint. The food is quite heavy and a bit over-oiled in my opinion and extremly fifficult to digest. All things considered it's hard to choose this option when Radish Kitchen is...

Unique addition to the east Nashville cocktail lounge/restaurant scene, super impressed by the quality of the food with north & south Indian flavor twist! My favorites right off the bat were Kavarati & Vada (deep fried South Indian delight with coconut chutney).

Lamb seekh tandoor was also very flavorful but I’d recommend the chef to replace the pickled veggies with something else, they didn’t quite compliment the lamb seekh tandoor.

Butter chicken tostada had the most amazing flavor but it was listed under “Sharables” and we got served with only one tostada for $15. When we tried to cut it in half, the hard shell didn’t allow that without creating a mess. See the picture posted, it left something to be desired for sure in terms of the quantity that was served for what they charged for it. Also, it took 50 mins to arrive and we were done eating everything else and just had to keep waiting for the tostada for 50 mins. The staff didn’t bother it was taking so long, despite us checking multiple times.

I asked about the bar snacks, they said they usually serve them during the happy hour at the bar and offered to let me taste it without me ordering them. I thought that was very thoughtful, only to find out later that they had charged me for it miscellaneously.

The paratha quesadilla we ordered by itself since they didn’t have the soup available and it had no taste whatsoever, it was very bland.

Out of all the cocktails tried on the table, Kavarati was the favorite one, Tigris was second and I heard someone say they just had the worst espresso martini here, so I wouldn’t recommend that.

Overall, we ended up paying $60 per person and liked many of the Indian tapas we tried, including Vada, butter chicken tostada, lamb seekh tandoor, and Kavarati cocktail. The only reason I haven’t given 5/5 was the less than top-notch wait-time and...

After a recent menu revamp with a new chef, this is THE BEST Indian food I've had in Nashville. We sampled seven items across the menu - and all were what I'd call flavor-forward --provoking a happy "wow" from me and my dining partner at each bite. They all had what you could call a "point-of-view": actual effort in the kitchen to give them character. A few items were inventive, but most were recognizable while tasting much more assertive than expected. Authentic seasonings for sure, but not that sort of savory same-ness that so many U.S. Indian restaurants present.

We started with the amazing Pork Bites - a bowl of fall-apart meat chunks in a sauce. These made my eyes roll back in my head with happiness. Samosas followed. We all know vegetarian samosas can be bland, but these were a burst of flavor, as was the chicken edition. We also tried the Butter Chicken Roll and the Spicy Potato & Cheese Roll. Both were paratha-wrapped tubes of punchy moist complex deliciousness. I also dove into a luxuriously buttery and coconut-y Chicken Moilee. I'm aware these descriptions sound exaggerated, but they're not...go see for yourself. We were welcomed by friendly staff on a quiet Wednesday eve - including the chef himself, and had a great hang with host Lindsey. I'm a fan of Nashville's tasty rival restaurant, Chauhan Ale and Masala House - which can get crazy busy, but Turmeric & Co offers smaller crowds and a more casual atmosphere in a modern 5Points building, while being absolutely delicious. Can't...
