About Clove Chill And Grill Indian Restaurant

Tucked into Taylors Hill, Clove Chill And Grill turns out deeply spiced North Indian curries and smoky tandoori plates with genuine family warmth. The kitchen skips nuts in their foundational gravies—a rare relief for anyone managing severe allergies. Diners often start with the sizzling vegetarian platter piled with samosas and tandoori mushrooms before moving to slow-simmered dal makhni and blistered garlic naan. For younger diners or strict dietary requests, the team happily adapts spice levels dish by dish. It all comes together over a cold jug of lemon, lime, and bitters.

  • Allergy-safe cooking: The kitchen avoids tree nuts in base cooking pastes and easily alters recipes for allergy-conscious guests and young kids.
  • Smoky tandoor & slow curries: Tandoori mushrooms, chicken vindaloo, and slow-simmered dal makhni arrive hot alongside fresh, blistered garlic naan.
  • Welcoming neighborhood hospitality: The crew routinely remembers regulars, treats newcomers like family, and quickly accommodates large dinner groups.

  • Fresh Naan and Smoky Tandoori Specialities

    Freshly baked naans and sizzling platters deliver consistent quality and generous portions across every visit.

  • Dedicated Nut-Free Gravy Bases

    Unlike standard North Indian establishments that depend on cashew or almond bases, basic gravies are made without nuts so allergy sufferers can dine safely.

    they do *not* use nuts in their preparation of basic pastes used for preparing food. So if you are allergic to nuts, this is *the* place to visit.

Practical advice on allergy considerations, timing, and customized orders

  • Ask About Nut-Free Curry Bases

    Diners managing nut allergies can eat with confidence, as the kitchen does not use nuts in the foundational pastes prepared for curries.

  • Time Visits for Weekend Afternoons

    Evening services get very busy, so plan to arrive during weekend afternoons or order ahead if you prefer a quieter dining experience.

  • Request Tailored Preparations for Kids

    If dining with small children or guests who have dietary restrictions, ask staff for custom-tailored dishes suited to specific taste buds and needs.
