Panahar Tandoori Restaurant

Panahar Tandoori occupies a prominent position on Esher High Street and serves a broad menu of traditional and contemporary Indian cuisine to both dine-in and takeaway customers. The kitchen shines with its tandoori work: chicken tikka is reported as beautifully cooked and genuinely succulent, tandoori king prawns are substantial and full-flavoured, and the Kashmiri chicken — korma-like but lifted with lychees and pineapple — is a signature worth ordering. Sunday sees a popular buffet, and the restaurant holds 5.16 stars out of 6 on Just Eat across over 340 reviews. Some customers rate it the best Indian for fifty miles; occasional reports of inconsistency mean it is not universally flawless, but the loyal regular trade suggests the kitchen performs well more often than not. Esher town centre and Sandown Park are both a short walk away.
