The staff were so amazing and attentive, but not overbearing. The food was delicious. I was very pleased to see they had a nice vegan/vegetarian menu and the drinks were unforgettable.

Food ranged from good to excellent, but the cocktails were the real star of the show. The drinks menu was extensive, and we enjoyed each one we tried (their namesake, the Tigerlily, was a standout). The fresh fruit is a decadent touch to the very flirty, very sweet cocktails. The fried chicken was exceptional, with an interesting take on mashed potatoes underneath — very hearty and filling. The coconut curry chicken was also excellent, though the naan was unusually thick and dry. We also had the beet salad, which was delicious except for the avocados — they were so unripe that I couldn’t cut them with my fork and knife. Not exactly sure how they ended up on a plate and served, but the service was somewhat spotty so we couldn’t send them back before our entrees arrived — not the end of the world, since the beets and paneer were still good. Overall, the food was good enough to warrant a return visit sometime, and the vibe was sophisticated (if not a bit sports-bar-y in the front). Great for a date night or a special catch-up with friends.

The sweetest couple, Atul & Alka treated us like family the day we wandered into Tigerlily. Alka went above and beyond to create the perfect espressos martinis for us and even ordered the Mr. Black liqueur that we liked knowing we were coming back in the following day. Atul, the husband was so friendly and warm towards us and we could tell their staff was treated well too. Lorenzo, the bartender was just as fun and friendly as the owners. Now onto the food…Wow!! My boyfriend and I fell in love with the couple of items we ordered. The meatballs and the chicken tikka masala were both absolutely delicious!! Also, the previous day we ordered the veggie samosas and I think it was the most delicious thing I’ve ever tasted. Sadly, we had prior dinner plans down the street otherwise we would have stayed for a full meal. We also tried the Hibiscus Me and the East of Infinity cocktails and both were amazing! We live in Napa but are excited to make the drive back to explore the entire menu and share more conversation with the amazing owners and staff. Thank you Atul & Alka!!

Absolutely delectable food, amazing cocktails. The owners and staff all show so much care. The lamb vindaloo is my go to, but everything we have tried is top notch.
