Wow... just WOW. Excellent Indian flavors! Great volume of food for the money. We order the tandoori dinner which really is enough for two average eaters - it was a lot of chicken and lamb sausage- along with vegetables rice and other things... Great deal. Loved the garlic mushroom dish - very savory sauce.

This place is a wonderful spot for Indian food. In a city with such a dearth of Indian restaurants, Mantra really stands out. I tried the malai kofta, which has shredded paneer on top, making it extra unctuous and delicious. The garlic naan is a perfectly prepared classic. Don't miss the samosa chaat as well! Each dish is customizable to preferred level of spice. Definitely will be back!

The food was super delicious and extremely satisfying. This was probably the best Indian food around that we have found. The flavors were what you would expected from Indian, rich and spicy. Looking forward to going back to try more dishes. My chicken was cooked well, still a bit moist and not over cooked.

Everything was wonderfully delicious. We had the samosa chat and Hara Bhara Kabab for apps. They were great. But the star of the show was the Bhindi Masala (fresh okra prepared so good. I dont even usually like okra. Garlic Mushrooms entree was creamy and delish. Koushik is the man!! He was our server and gave great recommendations.

Amazing meal! I am Indian and have tried many Indian restaurants in DC and NY before moving to New Orleans. I judge how good an Indian restaurant is by tasting their chicken tikka masala. The chicken tikka masala here is well marinated and has the appropriate creamy texture. It was delicious!
