Jack Vandegriffe: Recommended dishes Paneer Tikka MasalaMore

Tasmeem Ahmad: I ordered food for pickup at 11:45am and called them at 11:30 to make sure it would be ready. I got there at 11:45am but the door was locked. Another customer and I waited outside and for at least 10mins until they let us in. The food wasn’t even ready until 12:05 and they didn’t offer any sort of discount or compensation (although they did give the other customer a mango lassi).Honestly, I wouldn’t write this review if the food was at least good, but it wasn’t. The curries were drenched in oil and the paneer dish barely had any paneer.Save yourself the headache and get food elsewhere

Sonu Kumar Tiwari: It’s not available for dine in as mentioned on google listing. I ordered food once and found it miserably horrible. They just sent huge qty of rice with oil and color and some poor quality paneer in the name of paneer tikka biryani. Even the saag paneer was horrible and I developed serious digestion issues that lasted for 3 days .I went again for dine in around 5 pm on weekend and found it closed. There was nobody there to answer anything. It was a horrible experience again.Maybe they are going through some challenge but somehow feel such a chain must be managed well in customer’s interest.

Madhusudhan Reddy: The restaurant has provided false information on their Google listing, as they claimed to offer dine-in service but were actually closed for it when we arrived. This has caused inconvenience and disappointment for us as we were hoping to eat at the restaurant.In addition, the quality of the food ordered was not up to par, as the raita that came with the veg biryani was spoiled and bubbling with fermented gases. This is a serious issue that could pose health risks to anyone eating from this place.

Jorden N: I’m not vegan or vegetarian but this was fantastic regardless

Shivam Kothari: Great food. The only pure veg Indian restaurant in the area. However would have liked dine in a little better. As of now they only have takeout.

Madhu Poornima: I wish I could give neg stars. Being a visitor from another state and the wonderful lies written in other reviews made us opt for this restaurant..We ordered many items with a bill of $90 and not even one of them were made properly. The veg pakora has tooo much salt, the bhature were pretty hard, chole is just canned chick.piece with some masal, aloo paratha was paratha minus aloo, had to search for the stuffing and don't get me started on paneer biryani. It was a joke. The chef has no clue what cooking is. Adding garam masala to rice along with salt in dripping oil and paneer pakoda is not paneer biryani. Please go back to chef school if you had attended any. In the end, please don't order from this restaurant if you know what food is.

Nimish Gupta: Absolutely awful! Everything was stale (samosas, paneer pakoda). All went in trash. Eating a nut bar for dinner instead.

Sejal Sah: The lady was so rude and the customer service was horrible.

Yelleni Shiva: Best and friendly customer service with tasty food. Love this place

girish gupta: Worst place which makes us to wait long time with dull receptionist face…! Moham moggala petkunarenti andi?

Tejasvi Kaliga: Ordered vegetarian Manchuria and Samosa Chaat. Samosa chat was ok and can give may be 2.5 Starts, but Veg Manchuria is really bad. Tastes really bad and has very bitter taste and could not finish 10% of it.

Mariah Parsons: I was picking up an order and I saw a man on his phone right by the door I knocked on the door and he ignored me even though he was sitting right by the door when I was trying to explain I had a pick up. I called the number on the door that told me to call for a pick up and nobody answered. The young man was just on his phone with my order on the table next to him and refused to give it to me! Never go here they are rude!

Bill Pat: Very good option for vegetarians totally vegan

Devorah Leah Brown: Literally the BEST Indian vegan food EVER!! Fantastic in every way! We are kosher and vegan, so this place really ticks all of the boxes. It we lived closer, we'd dine here several times a week!Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

Kasia Kornacki: Excellent food and great service. They were able to accommodate my unique order.

Richard Kestenbaum: Great food, reliable delivery.

Neetu Choubey: One of the best places to get authentic Indian food not just in STL but anywhere. Definitely recommend this.

Saffron Rapid: Went here for dinner the other night again , excellent food , excellent service as always, I have been dining in turmeric for past 3 years and have never left disappointed , I request visitors to not trust these negative reviews. Turmeric is one of the best Indian restaurant I have known.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

Dileep Kumar: I recently had the misfortune of visiting Turmeric, and I can confidently say that it was the worst dining experience of my life. The entire evening was spoiled by their abysmal customer service, which left me frustrated, angry, and completely unsatisfied. I strongly urge Turmeric to invest in some serious customer service training, because their current approach is nothing short of a disaster.From the moment I walked in, it was clear that the staff at Turmeric had no interest in providing a pleasant dining experience.Avoid Turmeric until they have shown significant improvements in their customer service

Kalaivani Niranjan: Regrettably, our visit to Turmericwas marred by a severe lack of customer service and courtesy from the staff, leading us to leave without even ordering. Until there are clear improvements in their hospitality, I would recommend exploring other dining options.Service: 1/5|Atmosphere: 1/5 …More

Dhareni Sivaram: I have always loved the great food at this restaurant and look forward to visit this place every time I come to St.Louis. This time had a very bad experience starting from the phone call to make a reservation. The person who attend the phone was very rude in answering my questions and hung up on me. Similar behavior followed when we visited the restaurant as well and we felt as customers we were not treated with respect and courtesy. I would never go back here again following this experience. I am not sure if the management has changed and or if it’s just the people who are serving that’s changed. Turmeric management- Be aware of this situation and take action!

Vanitha Vellingiri: We are regulars and love the great food. But this time we were served by a very rude waiter, right from reservation phone call.Turmeric management, be mindful of who you put in front of the house, you will soon lose loyal customers like me.Service: 1/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

Dhanya Ayer: Terrible customer service. When we called to reserve table for a group of 7, the person on the phone was very rude, not willing to answer any question and cut the call. We went earlier than our reservation time and inspite of availability the same person kept telling us he cannot seat us. So we waited outside the restaurant and ordered some drinks. The guy came outside and asked us not to block pedestrians walking by the restaurant. We were not blocking and there was plenty of space for pedestrians to walk by. So went in and canceled our drink order as we didn’t want to stay there anymore. He was rude again and said it was our mistake for going in as a group of 7. Absolutely no care for the customer. Not sure if he was rude because we were a group of Indian women or if he treats everyone the same way.

Bharat Verma: Amazing Indian food. I would love to go there again.Highly recommend!Food: 5/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 4/5Recommended dishes Mango Lassi …More

Hemanth Cys: I ordered chicken 65 it’s not upto mark I ordered spicy it’s not and taste is average.I ordered chicken special biryani taste is good but rice is not good but flavour is good .

Dwight Ong: Pricey without a Flavorful RewardI unfortunately think that this was the most bland Indian food I’ve had. Not at all flavorful and to me personally, I feel like they Americanized and adjusted the spices to not be as spicy or use as much spices. For the price, there is also an increased expectation of better food but it sadly didn’t deliver. The ambiance is nice, but the food and portions are not worth it. Maybe in the future if I try the food again it’ll change, but it just doesn’t hit. There are plenty of better places to find good authentic Indian food nearby.

Akhand Mahmood Ashek (Dipro): Very good quality Indian food. Highly recommended

Tesh Patel: I called to place any accomodation and was met with aggresiveness and rudeness. I would never go to this place with the experience that I have had alone on my phone. The owner hung up on me after asking a question. Absolute unproffesional curtesy. Boycott this place!!!!

Meagan ru: This was my first time trying Indian food and it was phenomenal! There was a little bit of heat to the food, but not overwhelming. The dishes were plated beautifully, and I loved the family style serving!Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

Aaron: Turmeric STL is an extraordinary restaurant that truly delivers a culinary experience like no other. From the moment you step inside, you are transported to a world of exotic spices and tantalizing aromas that awaken your senses and leave you hungry for more.The first thing that stands out about Turmeric STL is the warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Vicky K: First time we went (when it first opened) -- took over 2 hours to get seated. Food took forever. Nonexistant service. Almost left without eating but owner came out and apologized.Second time we went (recently in 2023) -- went for lunch around 1pm and they were out of the vegetarian curries. Refused to make any curry for us (could only order off appetizers or dosas which we didn't want to do). Decided to leave without eating. Pretty unprofessional given that we drove 30min to eat here.

Mark Weikle: Wonderful dining room and wonderful service. I ordered for carryout since I live in the neighborhood. The food surpassed any expectations I had! The rice is nothing less than magical! I had gyro over rice and extra tzatziki, and it came with a chopped salad that was a perfect complement. The gyro meat was of best quality and was perfectly roasted. I'd give it 10 out of 5 if they'd let me.Dietary restrictions: I did not find wheat as an ingredient in most of the dishes except for pita, which I offered to a friend.

The staff is very attentive and super kind. Definitely plan on making this a regular spot.

Bridget Donley: Thank you to your server/ worker for his over the top service this evening. Tall-ish African American guy with glasses and the patience of a saint.

After a very long day at the hospital I am incredibly grateful for your kindness. The food was excellent too!
