Balti Tandoori

Balti Tandoori on Market Street holds a TripAdvisor score of 4.5 and is ranked in the better half of Alton's restaurants on the platform. The kitchen is halal-certified and uses fresh ingredients for its menu of vibrantly spiced Indian dishes, open most evenings for collection and dine-in. Market Street runs off Alton's central shopping precinct close to the covered Westbrook Walk, making Balti Tandoori one of the more centrally located Indian options in this north Hampshire market town. The menu focuses on traditional Indian and Bangladeshi cooking — starters, tikkas, baltis, biryanis, masalas and chef's specialities — without distraction. No alcohol is served, and customers are welcome to bring their own, a detail noted by reviewers who find it adds to the value. A well-regarded halal Indian kitchen in a market town that benefits from the custom of a wide rural north Hampshire catchment, drawing visitors from the Watercress Line railway and the surrounding parishes as well as Alton residents.
