"My husband and I love Indian food! We went to Indian Oven based on a recommend for someone in town. We were not disappointed!! The butter lamb and garlic naan were off the hook! Great service too! The waitress knew the menu backwards and forward and was helpful and attentive. Thanks for the great food!"

"We loved the buffet. The food was fresh, the temperature hot and flavors delicious . The selection was varied and the price fair. The naan was excellent, too."

"We stumbled upon the Indian Oven minutes before closing while frantically searching for a restaurant when a previous takeout order at a different restaurant was canceled. We were immediately met with kindness and the woman at the hostess stand placed our order. We are so grateful for their hospitality but their food itself wins the 5 stars- we both agreed it was the best dinner we’ve had in a long time. The house salad was incredibly fresh, the dal and the butter chicken were delicious, and the naan was impeccable. I could not recommend Indian oven enough, both for their hospitality and their food!"

How to Eat Vegan on Route 66: Weatherford to Amarillo
Thankfully, the Indian Oven proved to be a delicious vegan-friendly option as we dined on Daal Tadka and Chili Channa. The Sikh owner was friendly and we had a great discussion on food and religion. Next morning, Jason’s Deli was able to rustle up a plant-based Southwestern Bowl and Spinach Wrap – so rather a successful way to Eat Vegan on Route 66 in the home of the The Big Texan Steak Ranch.
Where to Eat in Amarillo, Texas
Indian Oven Tikka bite at this long-standing Indian restaurant, where everything—from the homemade naan to each item in the lunch buffet—is worth a try. The samosas are crispy and the chicken vindaloo tangy. A number of meals are offered as vegan options.
