Tikka Indian Cuisine - Appetizer rice and tapioca. - Indian Near Me - Sarasota, Florida

We drove two hours for their lunch special, and it was well worth it! The prices were reasonable, and the portions were generous. Each curry combo came with basmati rice, naan (we upgraded to garlic for $1), papadum, a samosa, and a delicious cardamom rice pudding. We tried the Butter Chicken and Goan Chicken curries. Both were flavorful with large, tender pieces of chicken, though the Goan was a little salty for our taste. The garlic naan was excellent. The staff was friendly, the restaurant was very clean, and the cozy, dim atmosphere made for a great dining experience. We'll definitely be back! read more

Good Bit not as good as Turmeric Sarasota . Much larger menu . Meat more tender and more options. read more

We were in for lunch.. very convenient with a set thali of dal soup, samosa, Kheer, rice and Nan. There is a variety of veg and non veg curry to choose from... all for $14.99. Nice ambience with quick service. We got an extra order of garlic naan which was perfect. Appetizer onion pakora was huge portion and perfectly crispy. Restroom was clean and well kept. Taking off half star for the authenticity of the chettinad chicken gravy- it was very North Indian with the use of cream etc. read more

Probably the best Indian food I've had to date. Their food is so full of flavor, and they had some more creative dishes you typically don't come across for an Indian restaurant. We ordered: Gobi cauliflower (Manchuria): very good. Not too fried or over breaded. Just right Eggplant chaat: creative take on samosa chaat Tikka chicken masala - hot: so good. Would 100% recommend and I see why it is in the name Lamb chettinad - incredible coconut flavor. Very well balanced with very tender meat. Garlic naan: the best. Not too much garlic, but really fresh and fragrant 10/10 would recommend. Would drive out of the way in Sarasota or Tampa to get here Staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. Ambiance is quiet but elegant. Can come here in a suit jacket or a sweater and jeans read more

Husband and I went here last night (a Saturday) at 6 pm and it was great! We called ahead for a table and it was ready as promised. It's in a strip mall on Fruitville but once inside you would never know that- it's very pretty. Service was wonderful. I got a California Pinot Grigio to drink and it was a very generous pour. My husband got Taj Mahal beer- they have a choice of lower alcohol and higher alcohol content which we had never know about. Papadum with 3 dipping sauces is on the house. The Malai Kofta was delicious- much lighter than usual which we liked. We also tried the Malabar curry with chicken which was very good but I wish was a little more coconut forward. Rice comes with entrees. Garlic Naan was very good as well. Bill came to about $64 which was very reasonable. We will definitely be back- I have my eye on the eggplant app! read more

Newly opened (a couple of months). Nicely decorated with great pictures on the wall! Friendly, knowledgeable and efficient service. All the food was fantastic! Even ordered an extra entree to take home to have for lunch this week. The water was nicely filtered and tasted great. The wine was served in a very large glass with a generous pour and was very nice. Complimentary (with dinner) crispy chips with three dipping sauces was very interesting. One sauce was mint and a very little bit spicy, the other was a tomato-based onion relish, and the third had a delicate sweeter flavor - sort of like a bbq sauce, that's as close as I can get to describing it, and that's not really close. All very tasty. The eggplant appetizer - Eggplant Chana Chat - was excellent! A party in the mouth, my wife says. The fried Onion appetizer with interesting spices crispy flash fried curry leaves served with a mint sauce was superb! Huge bowl - a must share item.... I also liked them with the other two sauces from the crisps. The Garlic Naan - what can I say - butter, garlic, and bread with other seasonings - I'm sorry I let my wife talk me out of getting two of them.... Dip them in the butter sauce, too. And we haven't even gotten to the main courses yet... The Chicken Tandoori was wonderful - very tender and nicely seasoned. It came out sizzling hot on a metal plate. The butter chicken was perfectly flavored, the chicken in large chunks and cut it with a fork tender. Ordered mild, but had just the right amount of heat. Lovely! This is what I ordered an extra of to take home for lunch later. On Saturday at a quarter to 5pm it was empty but at a quarter after it was half full. Plus a lot of take out service. The word is apparently getting around. I'm out of adjectives so I guess I have to stop. We will certainly be back! read more

Tikka Indian Cuisine - CHICKEN 65 - Indian Near Me - Sarasota, Florida

The curries all come with a lot of basmati rice so no need to order extra. If you do want extra, the coconut rice has lots of real coconut flakes in it and it's pretty good. The chicken 65 is a little spicy and very flavorful. I liked it but would try something different next time. The onion bhaji (onion strings) are delicious and you get a ton of them. I like the $11 Maso Canali pinot grigio but my wife doesn't - she likes the Canyon Road cab sav on the menu. The butter naan is fantastic. It can get a little hot in the restaurant so dress appropriately. The pani puri (summer special) was fun to try but not my favorite. Overall everything is great and you should come here. read more

Food and service were excellent! The butter chicken is spectacular and love that we were served more than enough rice to soak up the sauce. read more

Everything about Tikka exceeded our expectations. Located in a strip mall I wasn't sure what I would find. RUN here! The staff ( our waiter Peter) was so pleasant, helpful and polite. The food was outstanding! Had the Garlic Naan, Eggplant Chaat ( amazing) and the ( medium spice) Lamb Marsala with Basmati rice. So flavorful and filling. Spicy but not Indian spicy Meat was cooked perfectly. Ordered a bottle of wine and the bill was under $100. We will be back regularly read more

The food was so delicious I had the tandoori chicken and it was still juicy and not dry and the naan was great with the rosemary. The service was good that our waiter gave us suggestions and was attentive to what we needed. The inside was clean but inside is small restaurant but the food was delicious and service great. read more

I usually get takeout from here, and it's always a win -- the food is consistently delicious! The space itself is really cute, and I'd love to come in for a sit-down meal sometime. If you haven't tried it yet, you're definitely missing out! read more

First off, super modern inside! The people were extremely friendly and they did their job well! Date night was on point! The butter chicken was chefs kiss! The spices were fresh a d the butter chicken sauce was thicker than usual which made it even better. Don't skip on the samosas! The tamarind sauce has this tart kick that pairs perfectly with the samosas! The chile naan is the right amount of spice and very buttery! They had a nice crisp to them as well! My husband got the mango lassi and he enjoyed that as well. There are a few hard cuisines to come by in Sarasota and Indian is one of them. This place is a must go and we will be visiting often! Oh, I wanted to mention that the aloo Gobi is great as well! I had mine added on as a side! Food was great and the service if you can believe it, was just as incredible. Enjoy! read more

Best food and waitstaff in the area! We eat here at least a couple times a month and it's always a great experience!

Fast Indian food; quick service but lower quality; no table service; not bad for the price; the Naan isn't good.

We come here often for lunch and we love it! Their lunch special is so much food and so delicious. We always get the tikka masala and vegetable korma, both absolutely delicious, and we often have left overs to bring home! The staff are so friendly and attentive, and we love the atmosphere! Highly recommend! read more
