In the dim-lit kitchen, shadows dance and sway, A pot once bubbling with spices now sits still. The tikka masala warmth, a memory of yesterday, Its fragrant promise, faded, unfulfilled.
Ok so maybe I got a bad demonstration of their chicken tikka masala. It was not very good. It pretty much tasted like garam masala flavored tomato soup with chicken pieces in it. The rice was good and had an amazing flavor,smell,taste. The chicken tikka…not so much.
I’m very disappointed.

My spouse and I have both dined in, and ordered carry out from Indian Tadka. The food is delicious, especially the chicken preparations. This is a family-owned and operated restaurant; everything is prepared fresh in the kitchen. At busy times, you wait your turn for your order which is to be expected. Staff members are friendly and accommodating. We'll be back!
1st time customer—did takeout. . The food was ok. I was shocked at how incredibly small the portion size was and I got very little meat and vegetables..

Asked the waitress what the chefs favorite meal was and I was told they don't eat their own food. I got the Chicken Tikka Masala with a 4 in 1-5 spicy as I wanted it to be a little bit spicy. I only drank around 1 glass of water, similar to other meals so not really spicy, especially for Indian style food. Plenty of rice, which was cooked well, but only a little bit of chicken. Really over priced for what you get. If the meal was around half of the price, I would give it 5 stars, but $17 for what they offer is only worth 3 stars.Good service, it was the best part of the time there. But, there was no reason not to be good, as in an hour I was there they had less than 10 customers on a Saturday night.Would not recommend as it was just so overpriced for what you get.
Nice place. Good north Indian cuisine. Tasty food. Lots of takeout happens at this place

One of my most favorite places; my happy place.Small family owned and ran; very nice people.The food is always fresh, hot and deliceous. I have had everything on the menu and you can't go wrong. Reason we go few times a month (doesn't hurt they ate just arround the corner from our house either lol)
I cannot get enough of India Tadka. It's my favorite lunch spot in the area, hands down. I come here when I want flavorful, deliciously prepared homemade food and a quiet spot to enjoy it.I have never had rice that's prepared more perfectly than the long-grained basmati served here. Everything I order is vegetarian, and there is an endless variety of options. I've never had anything I did not 110% fall in love with. The food is not oily or greasy, like some Indian restaurants in the area. The tofu melts in your mouth, the paneer has the perfect texture, and every single dish is full of flavor. The chai tea is made per order and is quite delicious. Don't forget to get a side of homemade tamarind chutney. It's far better than the stuff you make from the concentrate purchased in Asian grocery stores!The charming woman who cooks all the food (yes, one person is responsible for all the cooking!) is kind and extremely attentive. It's truly like eating in your Indian grandmother's house. You feel cared for and un- rushed. We are so very lucky to have a family-owned, authentic place like this located in a strip mall in the western suburbs. I will be back again and again.
