Live Kitchen Tandoor Manufacturer in India Made to Order for Open Kitchens and Live Counters

Forno Sethi is a live kitchen tandoor manufacturer in India, based in Burari, Delhi and making tandoors since 1987. A live kitchen tandoor is a tandoor that the guest can see, so how it looks matters as much as how it cooks. Every live kitchen tandoor we make is custom made on order, in the size and finish you choose: mirror finish SS, rose gold PVD coated SS or copper. Inside it is the same clay tandoor chamber as every Forno Sethi tandoor, so the cooking is the real tandoor result.

Price depends on the size, finish and design. Send us your counter details on WhatsApp and we send an exact quote.

What is a live kitchen tandoor? A live kitchen tandoor is a tandoor placed where guests can watch the cooking, such as an open kitchen, a buffet counter or a live station. It is built with a presentable outer body, such as mirror finish SS, rose gold PVD or copper, and the same clay chamber inside, so it looks good and cooks like a real tandoor. We make each one on order, to your size and look.

Looking for the hammered copper body in detail? See our copper hammered tandoor. For fixed restaurant kitchens, see restaurant tandoors.

Live Kitchen Tandoor Finishes and Designs

Short answer: Most clients choose mirror finish SS or a copper look, and rose gold PVD gives the copper look in SS. The outer body is only the cover. The clay chamber inside, the heat and the cooking are the same in every finish.

Why Restaurants Choose a Live Kitchen Tandoor

Forno Sethi live kitchen tandoor with mirror finish SS body Guests Watch the Cooking – Seeing naan slapped on the wall and tikka coming off the skewer adds to the dining experience.

Matches Your Interior – Pick the finish that suits your counter: mirror steel, rose gold or copper.

Made to Your Size – We build to the space and the volume you have, instead of fitting a standard size into your layout.

Real Clay Tandoor Inside – The outer layer is for the look. Inside is the same clay tandoor chamber, so you do not give up taste or heat.

Pick Your Fuel – Charcoal for smoky taste, gas (LPG or PNG) for quick start and easy control, or hybrid for both.

Repair and Spares – Clay repair and spare parts are available, so a worn chamber does not mean a new tandoor.

Which Finish Should You Choose? A Quick Guide

Short answer: Choose mirror finish SS for a bright, clean, easy-care look. Choose copper for a warm, rich look. Choose rose gold PVD if you want the copper look in stainless steel with easier care.

FinishLookBest for
Mirror finish SSBright, shiny, modernHotels, banquets, modern restaurants
Rose gold PVD coated SSCopper-like colour in stainless steelInteriors that want the copper look with easy care
CopperWarm, rich, hand-craftedFine dining, open kitchens, buffet counters

Copper looks great but shows marks and needs polishing from time to time. SS and rose gold PVD are easier to keep clean. Tell us how busy your counter is and we help you choose.

Planning an Open Kitchen Tandoor

Short answer: In an open kitchen, plan the chimney or exhaust and the fuel first. Gas is the common choice for live counters because it starts quickly and gives less ash and smoke. Charcoal gives the classic smoky taste but needs strong ventilation.

Ventilation

Fit a hood or chimney over the tandoor so heat and fumes leave the dining area. Charcoal makes carbon monoxide.

Fuel

Gas (LPG or PNG) for quick start and easy control, charcoal for smoky taste, or hybrid for both. See the gas tandoor.

Counter height and safety

Keep a safe gap between the hot top and guests, and keep cloth and decoration away from the mouth.
