Tandoori

Frommer's Review

Located in the Lagoona Hotel building, with its entrance on King's Wharf, this is one of frenzied Eilat's most calm and special restaurants. Beautifully decorated with Indian artifacts, the restaurant serves a variety of Indian dishes, although it specializes in tandoori cooking. All traditional styles executed with a light, elegant touch (let them know if you want authentic, fiery spicing, or prefer your dishes mild); and house creations, such as giant prawns in ginger marinade, or South Indian lamb in spiced coconut milk sauce, are very much worth trying, as are the stuffed Indian breads and appetizers. Look into the reasonably priced luncheon specials, which include soup, breads, four choices of main course plus vegetable curry, basmati rice, dessert, and a drink. Homemade desserts, such as the honeyed goolab jamin, are both exotic and delicious; and lassi, a yogurt-based tropical drink, is a cool antidote to Eilat's torrid temperatures, and clears the palate between hot courses.
