The tandoor is a special cylindrical clay oven used in Indian cuisine. Heated by a fire inside, it delivers intense convection heat to the entire space, cooking food quickly and evenly while delivering a delicious texture and smoky flavor. Yuba City’s Five Rivers Tandoori Restaurant is justifiably proud of the excellent dishes that come out of its oven.

The tandoori chicken is an Indian staple and is executed to absolute perfection, with the meat amazingly moist. The breads cooked in the tandoor are a perfect accompaniment to any meal. The rest of the menu is quite good, too – for appetizers, don’t miss the samosas stuffed with lamb. The daal soup is exceptional, with deep, savory flavors. The ambience and décor of this place is also top of the line, with incredible service just the icing on the cake
