Excellent Indian restaurant with many vegan and vegetarian options. The prices are very reasonable as well. Since I love love curry, I had the vegan curry lunch that had 2 different types of curries and rice, for just $10. Food service was very quick.
It's located in a strip mall, nothing fancy but they have several tables and it was clean. You order at the cash register and they bring the food to your Worth a visit. -

More like 4.5 stars :)
I moved to Boulder year and a half ago from Longmont, excited to finally be in a place with more than one Indian restaurant.
And after over a year of living here, I'm finally ready to write a review after sampling what Boulder has to offer. Tiffins is my go-to delivery places
The food here is well-spiced, portions are large and everything (curry-wise) comes with rice. This is also the only place I've found here in Boulder that serves South Indian food- dosas, vada, ildy and the like. Is it the best dosa I've had? No. But it's passable and my father( who was born in Chennai) agrees. Their sambar fluxes in quality but it's never outright bad and when it's on, IT IS ON.
I find other places in the area water down their curries, where curry here is always thick and creamy. Again, flavor is good and the spice scale is pretty accurate. I love their saag paneer, it's one of their best dishes.
Pricing is maybe a little inflated, but hey it's Boulder. Do note that I did say this is my go-to DELIVERY (or take out) place. Dining in is an option, but it can get busy there and the waits can be long. They also don't always get the order right when dining in but they almost always get it right in delivery
Overall, it's my favorite Indian place in Boulder and definitely worth at least a take out.

Terrible experience. Awful service, confusing ordering system. They themselves don't seem to understand how South Indian idli, chutney, and sambar is cooked, nor served. They wanted me to order two different dishes to get idli, chutney, and sambar. If I wanted with Vada, it was four dishes. They have option of chutney or sambar and idli or vada. Nice way to rip people off, who aren't in the know! The idli and vada was hard as a rock. I still have them sitting on my kitchen counter the next day. Gonna have to give it to the dog.
Tiffin is indeed South Indian term, and idli, Vada, chutney and sambar is 100% a South Indian dish. I would know, as I was born in south India. The people running and cooking here seem to be from the country of Nepal. They are okay for Dal Makhni. The roti looked burnt, rice portion is much smaller than the entree when ordering the dinner portion. Roti was extra, that too is garbage.
I get the prices were very reasonable if you bought their lunch buffet option, that's served. You get to try three different dishes with rice for $10. This is also the only thing the cashier there seems to know how to sell.
Not sure why they chose this menu, nor this name. They know nothing about "Tiffin." -

Came in last week for some korma. It was amazing. Ordered the chicken korma extra hot and garlic naan. I think it was the best Indian food I've ever had.
The korma was thick and creamy with a lot of flavor. The naan was moist and emanating delicious garlicy fumes. Just really good.
Service was great and fast. Place was very clean. Great experience and highly recommend. -

Great food! Make sure to call ahead. Online hours don't match, and they close mid-day everyday for multiple hours.
