This is my favorite Indian restaurant on this side of the planet. The food was incredible, and the staff was exceptionally warm and friendly. Although it was quite busy with catering orders, you can still dine in at the restaurant. Despite the hustle, the team managed to prepare our meals and provide great service. We tried their chicken biryani, kothu porotta, beef biryani, milkshakes, and more. It was the best experience I've ever had! The highlight was meeting the owner, a wonderful gentleman who ensured that every guest felt welcomed. The biryani was bursting with flavor, with the gravy and spices perfectly infused. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. The kothu porotta was delig...
I've lived in this area for 23 years, but due to family preferences, I've never had the chance to enjoy authentic Indian cuisine until now. I finally decided to explore and give it a try! For my first visit to Martin's, I chose the classic butter chicken with naan. The food took about 20 minutes to prepare, and they serve generous portions—enough to feed two or three people. I could easily stretch the butter chicken into three or four more meals; I’d just need to cook some extra rice at home. The only downside is that there’s no seating inside, and the interior could use a bit of a refresh to make it more inviting. However, the exterior signage is nice, and the food was absolutely delicious.
Tucked away in a strip mall, this little restaurant might easily go unnoticed. However, if you do stumble upon it, you're in for a culinary treat. The mutton curry and paratha are definite highlights. On the other hand, the biryani was quite disappointing; it was made with regular rice instead of basmati, and the flavors were unevenly distributed, making it rather bland. I recommend visiting for snacks like vada, samosas, and the paratha and curry. Please note that this is a takeout-only establishment. Service is for takeout only.
This restaurant offers an outstanding takeout experience for dinner. With a price range of just $10 to $20 per person, it's an excellent value. The food is exceptional, earning a perfect rating of 5, and the service is equally commendable, also rated at 5. The atmosphere is inviting, making it a delightful choice for a cozy meal at home. I highly recommend trying the Gobi Manchurian and Chicken Tikka Masala—they are both must-haves!

The food is amazing and reminds me of my hometown! I love Martin Etta! Happy Onam to everyone! The kingfish fry, beef curry, and Lorri tray with pothi choru were all excellent. Every dish is a must-try. Thank you, Martin Etta!

I really enjoy getting Indian takeout from this place! It's not a sit-down restaurant, but if you call ahead to order some samosas and a curry, you won't regret it! Just make sure to check your bag before leaving, as we've occasionally found items missing.
**Vegetarian options:** You can find almost anything vegetarian here, aside from chicken, beef, and fish.
**Kid-friendliness:** It's a very welcoming atmosphere; Martin usually serves my kids banana fries and mango lassi every time we visit!
The food was excellent, and the portions were enough to serve three people. The chicken curry was the best I’ve ever had, and the Lachha Paratha was incredibly soft and delicious. I would give them a 6 out of 5!

I absolutely love Martin's! It's the best Indian food I've had in Tampa Bay, and perhaps even in the entire United States. The chicken tikka is a must-try, along with the naan and paratha.
