Mama Tigre

A fusion of Mexican and Indian cuisine? This really works as the food here taste great and provide a different take on Mexican cuisine! We've always found great and friendly service here as well. You know this place is great when there's always a long line to eat here. We ordered the following:- Jalapeno Poppers - truth in advertising as menu says it's spicy and waiter confirmed to make sure we knew it was spicy. It was spicy but so very good.- Combo Fajita - ordered with steak & chicken. Portions were huge and you get the option of ordering different type of tortillas (flour, corn).- Jambalaya - absolutely love this version of Jamabalaya! The spices were perfect and we will be ordering this everytime we're here.- Falooda - love this Indian (?) dessert of vanilla, milk, pistachio, almonds and cardamom.We haven't tried everything on the menu but will be coming here on a regular basis to try more dishes.

Are you looking for Mexican...or Indian cuisine? Well guess what if you can't choose then come here! They offer a mix of both! The style inside is more catered to Mexican style but is very colorful. They have amazing drinks, food and i have been here a few times and have always had wonderful customer service! Great place to bring your family or your date! All in all a great place to stop by and check out especially if everyone wants different options.

Mama Tigre was a very good experience. When we first walked in the decor was really cool! Ambiance was upbeat but also very family friendly. Our server was very polite and knew the menu well. She suggested some great vegetarian options.Indian twist to Mexican food is all that I can ask for. Spicy nacho cheese and tikka masala fajitas were amazing.

After an amazing lunch, glad I came back for happy hour a week later! Delicious Indian Mexican fusion, the food is truly bursting with flavor and tickles my taste buds! The Combination platter of Paneer Enchilada and Potato Spinach and Cheese Taquito along with an a la carte Caulilflower taco was a great way to sample the menu! The Paneer Kati roll is hands-down the best kati roll I've had!The Paneer Enchilada hit the spot with a creamy cheesy Tikka sauce while the the Spinach Cheese Potato Masala Taquito had a spicy kick! The Mexican rice was great for mopping up the sauce and absorbing the spiciness. It was a bummer the Cauliflower Taco wasn't an option for the Combination Platter of 3 (only the meat tacos were an option). I'm glad I ordered it a la carte for $8 - it was worth it! The crispy Cauliflower had a sweet and tangy sauce stuffed in 2 thin tortillas. Interestingly enough, all 3 items - the Enchilada, Taquito and taco had completely different sauces and flavors. The Happy Hour has good deals - try the Kati Paneer roll! The roll is a generous size with tender scrumptious paneer stuffed in warm cheesy tortilla. I'll opt out of the jalapenos/chili next time. it added a spicy kick! The Masala Fries were like Indian version of spicy Disco fries. They were fun to try, but they were soggy from all of the sauce and a bit too spicy. I wish the sauces came on the side. I wasn't a fan of the Classic Margarita or the Sangria on happy hour, the flavors weren't quite balanced out. Both drinks had a tangy flavor and I wish the sangria was a bit sweeter and had a heavy flavor from the Triple Sec. I enjoyed the Passionfruit Margarita. The complementary chips were fine and a bit salty, nothing really special (I wouldn't fill up on them). I was delightfully stuffed at the end of the meal!Note - the restaurant doesn't take online or phone reservations for parties under 10, but I didn't wait long (10 min) for a party of 5 for Saturday lunch at 1pm (3 of 5 had to be there). Excited to come back to try the crispy Paneer Tikka Tacos and satisfy my cravings for the Paneer Enchiladas and Paneer Kati Roll!

Came for HHR on Frinight - wow is this place popular!HHR only at the bar area - a nice, roomy space with tables & booths + bar stools.Honestly, the food is good but nothing spectacular. The vibe is casual fun, service is friendly and HHR specials great - lots pluses.We'll come again but just not rushing back.

I recently had the opportunity to dine at Mama Tigre's for the first time, and I was blown away. I had heard great things about this restaurant, and I was not disappointed. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was impeccable.The restaurant is located in Oakton, Virginia, about 30 minutes outside of DC. It is a small, cozy restaurant with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The menu is diverse, offering a variety of Indian and Mexican dishes.I started with the masala queso, which was creamy and flavorful. For my main course, I had the butter chicken enchiladas, which were perfectly spicy and tender. The flavors were complex and well-balanced.The service was also excellent. Our waiter was attentive and knowledgeable, and she made sure that we had everything we needed.   Overall, I had a fantastic experience at Mama Tigre's. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was inviting. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and delicious dining experience

Probably been here about 10 times now! The place tends to get packed on the weekends or in the evenings and for a good reason - this indian-mexican fusion place offers some of the most savory food in the area that leaves you wanting to come back every time. Highly recommend the kathi rolls, cheese tikka tacos and the masala burritos!Service could be a little slow during busy times but not an issue.

Mama Tigre has been on my list to check out. I met a friend for dinner the other night. We arrived during happy hour and opted to sit at a table in the bar area. They have solid happy hour options for both drinks and food. You get free chips and salsa to star. I didn't take a look in the main dining room but needless to say this place was hoping all night and it was a Wednesday. Our server was very friendly, on top of service and helpful. We started with the tikka wings. They were super flavorful. I liked both the mayo habanero chutney and the creama that came with it. I only wish the wings were crispy. We also tried the spinach and cheese taquitos per our server recommendation. They were also very good!!I got the lamb Birria which was good, not great. My friend got a veggie and paneer burrito. It was also very tasty and HUGE!! The naan was super disappointing. Too thick and not very flavorful in my opinion. This was the biggest let down. We both agreed it needed revised. I'd go back but hoping the naan recipe changes.

Overall: 4.5 starsTried Mama Tigre 3 times now and enjoyed all 3 times. Most recently tried the Jambalaya which was flavorful and filling. Good service and plenty of parking around the restaurant. It can get busy on the weekends, so may need to plan ahead of time. I plan on coming back to try other food items. Food Quality: 4 starsMost recently ordered the Jambalaya (tried this twice now). Very flavorful and filling. I want to try other food items but find myself ordering the Jambalaya again as it is a very good/safe dish. Previously tried the Chicken Tikka Tacos and Fajita Supremas, both of which were good (but prefer the Jambalaya). Slightly on the expensive end (about $22-28 per dish). Service/Experience: 4.5 starsThe staff was friendly and welcoming. Prompt service and food came out in a reasonable amount of time (or at least it seemed so, as we were given refills of our chips and salsa). Plenty of parking around the restaurant but definitely can be busy/packed on the weekends (nights). Plenty of seating inside and can accommodate for larger group sizes (for get-togethers, events, etc.).

We had an incredible dinner at Mama Tigre! The highlight of our visit was the outstanding service from Omar, our waiter. He was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our evening. His positive attitude added so much to the experience.The food was just as amazing--vibrant, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. Every dish felt like a burst of creativity and quality, with bold flavors that left us wanting more.Mama Tigre is the perfect spot for anyone looking for great food and exceptional service. Big thanks to Omar for making our night even more special!
