Complete insult to Indian/South Asian food. No real ingredients and cutting corner with recipes. Generic one size fits all curry sauces created and poured over different proteins/ vegetables, that don't even taste good. The curry part has a slimy texture as though corn starch was added to thicken instead of actual cream. It was sickening and resulted in belly aches. Biryani had a weird powder or raw dry seasoning on it with raw onion garnish....Really? Green beans in Korma? I can go on and on, but this place is not worth it. Don't call it Indian, that's what it is not, more like some mix of whatever these people created.

Really needs improvement or a new recipe/cook. Food is off and doesn't hit the spot of indian cuisine.

Tikka Shack is Indian food for the masses. I prefer to call it "Seriously Okay Indian Food". If you are looking for an authentic Indian food experience, this isn't the place. If you're looking to dip your toes as a first timer, it's a good start. The first thing I noticed here is a lack of some of my personal favorites. No palak (spinach) dishes, no dosa (but plenty of naan), and no mattar (pea curry). I also think pakora would do well here, but alas none of that either. And to finish things off, no lassi. I think it would be a hit! Okay, I'll digress, what does this place have? Masalas, curries, jalfrezi, and korma. Naan, of course, and samosas. Staples of the most popular modern Indian cuisines. There are meat choices, so if you're accustomed to thinking Indian is strictly vegetarian there's nothing to fear here. But if you're looking for beef, you won't find it here. Holy cow, my Texan sentiments are dashed! The food, while not thoroughly an authentic Indian experience by my measure, is objectively good. The flavors are great and the sort of fusion style is unique. This may add further appeal for those hesitant to try. Masala fries and a Tikka pizza built on naan foundations are great examples. If you just want a salad, they have that too. But don't be afraid of samosas; think of them like an Indian egg roll. Prices are on par with similar trendy restaurants. My staff experience has been fine. You order at the counter and then find a table where they'll bring your food to you. It can be a meal at whatever pace you choose.

It’s good. Lots of potential. But wildly inconsistent. Spicy and extra spicy are different every single time. Sometimes extra spicy is totally bland, sometimes regular spicy will burn you mouth off. Don’t order ubereats from them though, I’ve only ordered twice and both times I got my spicy food and they forgot my drink. Try eating THAT with no drink

Great meal. We had the chicken tikka masala, chicken biryani and a side of fries. It all tasted very fresh, the restaurant appeared clean and inviting. The fries almost had a sweet seasoning which was interesting and good. For places like this, I wish there was like a 4 or 6 or 8 person sampler that offered many small dishes - a little bit of everything. I'd like to try it all!

This place was a surprise to me, I wasn’t sure what to think of a chain Indian restaurant because I’ve only eaten at authentic Indian restaurants. It wasn’t bad I thought it was pretty decent I wouldn’t call it authentic but it’s still good.

I'm thrilled to hear you enjoy the generous portions at Great Portions! The Masala fries and Chicken Tikka Masala seem to be your go-to, and opting for garlic naan is a tasty choice. The ambiance and music add to the overall experience, creating a delightful dining atmosphere.

I don't like Indian food. But friends chose this place so I went. I asked the cashier what is good for someone who doesn't love Indian food. He recommended the kebab and it was delicious! Will go back again sometime and maybe I'll learn to love more Indian food!

Delicious, great quantity, a little on the pricy side but that's to be expected of any Indian food. We usually get the masala fries and this time I tried the Aloo Saag, a vegetarian dish and it was delish!Vegetarian options: Both vegan and vegetarian options!

Good Indian food in a quick serve format. The naan bread is excellent. I'll be back soon.

A little uncomfortable to eat in but fantastic to to system, good food, good service. No complaintsEdit: Don't order pick up from here. Waited at the window for a full 11 min. Made eye contact with an employee 8 different times who then checked his snapchats and then watched videos on his phone for a few more minutes before finally deciding to hand us our now cold food. Unimpressed.
