Turmeric Indian Bar & Grill - (Near Sarasota, FL)

5 /5 Himatee J. Patel: We had a truly phenomenal meal here. The service is attentive and wonderful. The food is delicious and wide ranging in choice. The food is fresh and flavorful. The naan and curries were amazing. The chicken was great quality and tender. Not one dish was over spiced or excessively oily as many Indian restaurants get wrong. The desserts were truly delicious and memorable. We wanted to lick our plates.

5 /5 Kris Broneill: One of the most welcoming restaurants! Wonderful atmosphere and the staff is always amazing. Ask for Kumar - One of the best servers I’ve had anywhere. The food absolutely outstanding! Great presentation and always perfect temperature with very good portions. I highly recommend!

5 /5 Elif Can: We visited this restaurant on Christmas Day, and as you can imagine, it was completely packed. We ended up waiting longer than the estimated time, and once seated, it took over an hour for our food to arrive. While some customers were understandably complaining, what really stood out to us was the kindness and professionalism of the staff. Our waitress did his absolute best to make everyone feel comfortable and taken care of despite the situation. The food, when it arrived, was absolutely delicious and well worth the wait. To top it off, the restaurant kindly offered a 10% discount and brought us a complimentary special drink, which we truly appreciated. Because of how well they handled such a busy holiday, we decided to come back the very next day. This time, we came for the lunch buffet, and it was excellent—fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. As a thoughtful gesture, they even surprised us with a special carrot pudding dessert as an apology for the previous day. That level of care really means a lot. Even on one of the busiest days of the year, the team remained friendly, generous, and professional. Great food, great service, and a restaurant that genuinely cares about its customers. Highly recommended—we will definitely be back!

5 /5 Mikaelyn Pavlisin: Turmeric has amazing food full of flavor and traditional decadence! Akshay, our server, was very kind and brought us his favorite dessert, Orange Kulfi (HIGHLY recommended!) The fig ice cream was also incredible! Everything from the Paneer Curry to the Dal Tadka and the Baryani to the Aloo Mutter was exquisitely crafted to engage every sense! Definitely a great time for the whole family :)
