" I visited Silsila last weekend, and I adored the experience! The ambiance felt very traditional with beautiful decor. I opted for the butter chicken, which was perfectly spiced. My friend had the lamb biryani and loved it too. It's great to find a place that serves such authentic food. The only downside was that our server was a bit slow with the refills. But that won't stop me from coming back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time tasting authentic Indian cuisine, and Silsila did not disappoint! The servers were patient and helped me choose from their extensive menu. My chicken saag was flavorful and just the right amount of spicy for a beginner like me! I'd love to return with friends to share this amazing experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely terrible experience! I found hair in my food, which really ruined my meal. Even though the flavors were good, I can't overlook hygiene issues. They need to pay attention to cleanliness if they want repeat customers. Very disappointed! " (*Curated Review*)

" I loved the mango lassi they offered—it was perfect on a hot day! The food here is good but somewhat shy on spice, which disappointed me as someone who loves heat. The butter chicken was decent, but I've had better. Overall, it's a nice place for a casual meal, though I might ask for extra spice next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been a frequent customer of Silsila The Flaming Tandoor for over two years now, and I can confidently say it remains my favorite spot for Indian cuisine in Portland. Their dal makhani is a standout dish, rich in flavor and very comforting. I also appreciate how they cater to personal spice preferences, making the dining experience customizable. The cozy and vibrant atmosphere always puts me in a great mood too. Although I've experienced minor hiccups in service here and there, the quality of the food is consistently high and keeps me coming back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I came to Silsila based on a friend's recommendation, and I was not let down. The staff was lovely, very attentive at the start but they got a bit overwhelming as more customers arrived. The food was very authentic, particularly loved the lamb curry and butter naan. Would absolutely return, maybe earlier during the week when it's less busy! " (*Curated Review*)

" Food was decent but service was slow. I was left waiting too long for my table even with a reservation. The flavors were nice, but I think I might try somewhere else for my next Indian meal. " (*Curated Review*)
