Somehow, my fiance and I totally missed this place when it moved into the Sanderlin Center, despite him working nearby and me frequenting the Kroger on Mendenhall (and occasionally making a cupcake run to Muddy's). We usually go into Midtown for Indian food, so when we found out we had an Indian restaurant right down the road, we were incredibly excited to have a closer option. We've never dined in before--we always either call in take-out or use the convenient online ordering system that they have available through their website. The food is kind of expensive, but they serve nice-sized portions (we can never make it through all of the rice they give us) and take-out is usually ready in 15-20 minutes. The paneer tikka masala is delicious (the sauce is a little more yellow-orange than I'm used to--maybe they add more turmeric?--but it's very tasty) and the samosas are spicy and well-seasoned. The naan can be a bit hit-or-miss (sometimes it's a little too chewy), but when done well, it's soft and slightly sweet. My fiance usually gets butter chicken (very tasty), but he's also tried the chili chicken, which was quite an interesting dish, with Indian and Chinese influence. All in all, Roti's is a good choice, especially if you're out in East Memphis. It's never very busy when we go (in fact, most nights we've gone, the place has been empty), which worries me a little bit, so I hope people start hearing more about this little place, because it's a great addition to the area and the food is quite tasty.

Historically I have not been fond of Indian food, but my wife loves it because she is vegan and it allows her a much broader choice of items on the menu. As a new restaurant near our home, we wanted to try it and we were hoping for the best. We were not disappointed! We started with each of us having a masala tea to drink and an we shared an order of the Samosa appetizers - these were great way to start the meal. My wife ordered the vegetable chettinadu and I ordered the methi chicken. The flavor in each of these dishes is simply remarkable. Since this visit, we have eaten there two additional times and I am now a fan of this restaurant's Indian food. If you like Indian flavors, you certainly have to try this restaurant. As well, if your palate is expanding and you're open to new flavors, you should also give them a try. Mmmmmm!

My Belgian friend took me and I'm in love.... With the food, not him lol The fried cauliflower, gobi Manchurian, I swore was fried chicken. It's deliciously tempura fried batter with a spicy coating of chilies. Ginger chicken is my fav. Try their Masala tea for dessert, black tea spiced with cinnamon clove with milk & sugar. Try the garlic naan as well. Been here 3 times this week.

I really love Indian food, and I had heard good things about Rotis, and they have my favorite Indian dish of all time, Chicken Jalfreezi, so my friend and I went to eat there one evening for dinner. The service was fine, although the owner's kid was playing on a computer at a table near ours - she was well-behaved, and I get all the struggles of having a kid and having to work but I just really don't like that, especially when I felt like she was getting more attention than we were, even when we needed refills. The food was good, although our rice was definitely undercooked. It was also really pricey for the portion sizes. I think it's a great space in a great location - if they can get the word out, fill up the place (we were one of two tables), and work on consistency, then I think Rotis will be really good!

This place is actually 4.5 stars for me. The staff is friendly and very helpful. The restaurants decor is very nice with a welcoming feel. I love the Indian music videos playing. The samosas were great--flavorful and a bit spicy served with 2 great sauces. The chicken Tikka masala was great with a bright red sauce and tender chicken. A very pretty dish, I kept thinking of red velvet cake. The vegetable jalfreizi was spicy with a brown, gravy-like, sauce. It was very delicious over the basmati rice. Lastly, the rice pudding was sweet, cold and refreshing and really cleansed the palate. A great place for wonderful Indian cuisine.

Food was excellent. Samosas very flavorful and fresh and some of the best I have ever had. Chicken tikka masala was great as well as roti and mango lassi. Only negative was waiter took my husband's order and walked off without getting mine. I had to flag him bag down. I guess he thought my hubby ordered so much that it had to include mine as well.

Customer service is really good! The food was ok... Paneer tikka masala was different from other restaurants, and so is the papdi (which is an extra charge by the way, and so is raita...), and don't order paneer bhurjee. But it wasn't bad! They have mirch because there was some in the food we ordered but they bring you jalapeños instead of green chilis if you ask for them. Although I think most Indian restaurants do that. The naan was sweet which was weird?! The spice level was ok but their spice game was a little off for those of us who like to cry and snot when we eat ;p BUT so far their prices are the lowest we've seen in Memphis except Bombay chaat house in Collierville which is just snacks/street foods.

First time here but we'd been planning to try for awhile. We loved it. Service was fine. Very dark inside, low key atmosphere. Nothing fancy, very casual but we loved what we ordered. We asked for everything to be 'medium' spice but in my opinion it was pretty mild. We tried: The gobi manchura which was excellent. Order this. Spicy but not overwhelming. Delicious. The fish pakora was great. The palik paneer, methi chicken & lamb saag were all wonderful. We added a side of onion kulcha which was so good. Addictive. Slight nit-picky stuff: Not huge portions for the price. Our bill with water to drink was about $75 before tip. Had some leftovers to take with us but nothing huge. Definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a nice Indian meal.

The best thing about this restaurant is you get to choose where you sit and won't be bothered by other people invading your space or having to hear any other human being's conversation. With that being said, a side benefit is this place is clean and well kept with entertaining Bollywood videos playing. The samosas were fine when enjoyed with a mango lassi. The entrees were more than adequate. I especially liked the garlic naan. Very tasty. The reason for my two stars is simple. Price. For two of us, two entrees and a mango lassi, the check was $63!!! I don't understand how this restaurant will survive in this prime real estate area. I'm no business manager but serving a couple of tables a night... this place might not be around much longer. YMMV

For starters, the food was good overall. The service was attentive, but not very knowledgeable, but the waiter was new on the staff, I think. It is rather pricey for what you get. Nothing for kids, and they don't do smaller portions for kids either. Overall, it's worth a try, but I don't believe we will be back until they adjust their pricing on things like a very small cup of soup, and adding refills to tea, etc.

Okay is about all I can say. Nothing special..It is a little over priced for my taste. Not much of a big deal. The AC was switched off today..a little annoying, considering it was almost 88 outside.

The food was excellent i liked their fish curry which was well cooked and the gravy was perfect. The gobi manchurian was the best which was not spongy but lite crispy which exactly how it should be. Reasonable prices and staff was very friendly.

Somehow, my fiance and I totally missed this place when it moved into the Sanderlin Center, despite him working nearby and me frequenting the Kroger on Mendenhall (and occasionally making a cupcake run to Muddy's). We usually go into Midtown for Indian food, so when we found out we had an Indian restaurant right down the road, we were incredibly excited to have a closer option. We've never dined in before--we always either call in take-out or use the convenient online ordering system that they have available through their website. The food is kind of expensive, but they serve nice-sized portions (we can never make it through all of the rice they give us) and take-out is usually ready in 15-20 minutes. The paneer tikka masala is delicious (the sauce is a little more yellow-orange than I'm used to--maybe they add more turmeric?--but it's very tasty) and the samosas are spicy and well-seasoned. The naan can be a bit hit-or-miss (sometimes it's a little too chewy), but when done well, it's soft and slightly sweet. My fiance usually gets butter chicken (very tasty), but he's also tried the chili chicken, which was quite an interesting dish, with Indian and Chinese influence. All in all, Roti's is a good choice, especially if you're out in East Memphis. It's never very busy when we go (in fact, most nights we've gone, the place has been empty), which worries me a little bit, so I hope people start hearing more about this little place, because it's a great addition to the area and the food is quite tasty.

India is the birth place of Chicken Tikka Masala and Curries. Indian foods are prepared with a blend of finely mixed spices quite popular across the region. The spices develop the rich taste in Indian food enough to boggle your mind. The ever-increasing fan base of Indian food around the New York city is steadily increasing because of the large number of Indians who traveled to the land of dreams. The Indians also brought their very own vibrant, colorful, and aromatic authentic dishes for the people in the West. While most of the Indian population is Vegetarian, Indian food is great for people who are looking for vegan or vegetarian food option. If you are a Meat lover, don't get disappointed yet. Indian food also boasts of some popular non-vegetarian dishes too. Few examples are the famous Butter Chicken, Mutton Biryani and Tandoori Chicken are enough to satisfy your taste buds.
Indian food has gained reputation all over the world especially in the United States. You can find many places serving the appetizing Indian food across all major cities in the US. India is a diverse country with different food culture originated from different parts of the country. While the Northern region boasts tandoori dishes and korma offering royal taste, the Western Ghats offers sea foods that is made in naturally sweet tender coconut milk. The South Indian food servers a quality of different dishes made from rice accompanied with spicy chutneys, curries and famous sambhar. Also, the Indian sweets are a delight to relish. If you ever want to have a burst of sugar syrup in mouth, don't forget to try few Bengali Sweets. Be it spicy, tangy, or sweet flavor, you can find everything in the Indian cuisine. Be assured that the melody of spices will surely bring delight to you.

I really love Indian food, and I had heard good things about Rotis, and they have my favorite Indian dish of all time, Chicken Jalfreezi, so my friend and I went to eat there one evening for dinner. The service was fine, although the owner's kid was playing on a computer at a table near ours - she was well-behaved, and I get all the struggles of having a kid and having to work but I just really don't like that, especially when I felt like she was getting more attention than we were, even when we needed refills. The food was good, although our rice was definitely undercooked. It was also really pricey for the portion sizes. I think it's a great space in a great location - if they can get the word out, fill up the place (we were one of two tables), and work on consistency, then I think Rotis will be really good!
