"A loyal customer of Taj of India for a decade now, this is the only Indian restaurant I'll order from and my go-to when I need a pick me up, when I want to celebrate something, or when I just want to treat myself. The Lamb Roganjosh is so warm and flavorful, and it literally melts in your mouth. Even the rice it comes with is fragrant and tasty on its own. The butter chicken and the tikka masala are also part of my regular rotation. The Garlic Naan is perfect by itself or dragged through sauce, and the cheese naan is just as good. I also love getting a side order of the Daal Soup and adding the Rice Kheer my cart right before I check out because I can never resist it --- perfectly creamy for dessert but not too sweet, which is exactly what I like. I can't say enough good things about this restaurant!"
"It was really good and the shrimp were high quality and perfectly cooked but for $24 it would have been nice to get more than 5 shrimp in the Shrimp Tikka Masala (N)"

"This place is amazing! Having lived all over the world and eating Indian food, this place has great taste and the right amount of heat. Their "spicy" is definitely more flavored towards traditional American "spicy" but given that the flavors come through a lot more. The lamb is very tasty and their naan is delicious, hopefully they add a garlic cheese naan to the menu! The rice was not your traditional basmati with cardamum, but was a little more buttery. Highly recommend this place."
"my first time trying this establishing but I must say I liked it... I got the Butter Chicken Quesadilla haven't tried it yet tho...i also got Loaded Butter Chicken Fries tender meat great flavor my ONLY complaint is I wish it were fries instead of potatoes...i also got Potato Samosa - 2 the were huge and full and full of flavor spicy too the sauce that came with it was very good and I also got Chicken Nuggets with Butter Sauce chicken nuggets were tender and flavored butter sauce soooooooooo goood everything wasstill fresh when it arrived very well packaged and yummy 😋"

"EXCELLENT FOOD (& CUSTOMER SERVICE); LAMB BIRYANI & CHICKEN SAAG. DELICIOUS!!! BUT DELIVERY FEE... SO EXPENSIVE :("
"The lamb Biryani was ok. Very one note. Asked for medium spicy and it was not spicy at all. Most of the rice was broken and in smaller pieces. Not too much lamb for like $24? Missing a lot of herbs like coriander and lemon etc. Paneer Paratha was ok. Regular plain paratha would have been fine. The Saag Paneer and Tadka Yellow Dal were good."

"The food from Tikka stood out in taste the same way as I last dined there. They achieve a balance of flavors that's unparalleled. When I unwrapped the packaging of the Onion Kulcha I was hit with a burst of aroma! with every bite, I experienced the crunch of the onions and chewiness of the bread. The Amchur Bhindi Masala maintained the crunch of the Okra while the sauce coated the pieces. I was truly blown away by The dum Biryani With Raita for it's texture and incorporation of Jackfruit which did not make me miss any chicken! The raita had rock salt which just reminded me of home! Will certainly order from here again!"
"Really impressed with this order from Tikka! Everything was well spiced and packed with flavor, the Vindaloo and Tikka Masala had great depth, and the Samosas were a highlight, especially the sauces that came alongside them. The Raita was fresh and creamy, and both the Salted and Strawberry Lassis had a great yogurt base that felt authentic rather than watered down. Portions were generous, plenty of food for the meal plus solid leftovers the next day, which is always a win. Everything arrived hot and well packaged, which isn't a given with delivery. The Fruit Naan was a nice touch too."

"The food was basic and not very flavorful. You've had better. Try somewhere else if you're looking for authentic Indian flavors. I got the Shrimp Curry & Rice the shrimp are small and I paid extra for extra shrimp and I only had 8 in total. This is a skip for me, you can get better elsewhere. The Garlic Naan was okay but again very little garlic. "
