Thali-ya is only a small restaurant with just a few tables and a long counter, the food is very reasonably priced and it serves up great, tasty Indian food. Great curries, tasty tandoori dishes, awesome salads and some of the best naan bread you will find in Tokyo. If you are staying at the Hilton Hotel or Hyatt Regency Hotel in Nishi-Shinjuku then this restaurant is less than 5 minutes walk away.

I went if for dinner on a Sunday night and there were plenty of seats. I ordered up the Tandoori plater which comes with a tandoori chicken leg, a piece of tandoori chicken thigh, a beef kofta, 2 choices of curry (they have different types of curries each day) and a choice of either naan bread or rice. I went with the garlic naan which was so tasty.
