Silsila The Flaming Tandoor

It was our first time visiting Portland and we were like craving for Pakistani/Indian authentic desi food… we just googled the places and picked this place randomly… and to our surprise the taste was sooooo good…. First and foremost… the service of the staff was amazing… specially the guy on the counter (with eye glasses, apologies i forgot his name) was so welcoming and guided us through the menu and with chef’s special… we ordered daal tadka and rajistani chicken… with plain naan and garlic naan… and both are so amazingly delicious, chicken was so juicy and tender with a nice blend of spices… and last but not the least, thanks to the chef who made a customized karak tea as per our request (authentic Pakistani Dhaba style driver chai)… we loved everything we ate… the ambiance was also good… We were so amazed to had the delicious food thay we went again on the very next day to try some other dishes… and this time we tried chana masala and chicken karahi… and again… we are amazed by the taste and texture and balanced spices specially jn chana masala, chicken karahi was also good… so overall i will rate my experience 9/10… unfortunately I was not able to take pictures on the first dinner since we were super hungry… but was able to click some on the 2nd dinner… attaching here for reference… guys do try this place…. Keep the good work up silsala the flaming tandoor….

This is one of the best Indian foods I have had so far in Portland.
Feels exactly like food from home.

My husband and I love this place! We came to Portland a month ago and have been here 3 times now.
The food is delicious, and the owner (I believe) is super friendly.
I usually like tikka, but we got the afghani chicken and I like that even more.
I’m also extremely happy that they serve these with chicken breast.
I’m super picky with meat, and only eat breast 😂..
I know weird.
Overall love! The naan and tandoori roti are good (we’ve have both butter and garlic naan).
