Butter Chicken

The butter chicken is a standout, described as creamy, well-flavoured and among the best one reviewer had tried in Dubai.

Creative Plates

Small plates such as truffle mushroom puri with mango, paneer and baked paneer give the menu a more inventive feel than standard Indian dining.

Request Mild. Ask for reduced heat if needed; reviews say the kitchen can prepare dishes with less spice or no spice.

Try Patio. Choose the outdoor patio if you want the Museum of the Future in your view while dining.

The Bottom Line

Tandoor Tina is a modern Indian restaurant in Trade Centre with a fire-and-tandoor focus and a British-Indian fusion approach. It is worth considering if you want more than familiar curries: reviews highlight butter chicken, truffle mushroom puri with mango, paneer and creative small plates. The tandoor cooking also gets strong marks, from kebabs and cauliflower to tandoori fish.

The setting is a major part of the experience. Diners describe a stylish, cosy interior, while the outdoor patio looks towards the Museum of the Future. There is also a bar with a gin-led cocktail focus, and breakfast reviews mention shakshuka and several egg styles.

Service is consistently described as attentive and helpful, including explaining dishes, adjusting spice levels and handling a gluten and dairy allergy carefully. That makes ordering easier, especially if you are unfamiliar with the fusion menu. Valet parking has been reported at the entrance.

There are a few caveats. Some diners found the food bland or the menu limited, and one review called the restaurant pricey, specifically objecting to a 15 AED naan. Lighting can be too dim for photos, and a review found the chairs tight.

If you are visiting for iftar, check the current price and minimum-party terms rather than relying on an older offer.
