    This is one of my favorite Indian restaurants in the area. We had the Chicken Tikka Masala and the Salmon Tikka and they were cooked to perfection. The staff is always friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    very casual. excellent food for the money. We've been looking for a new indian place and this is it. Wait staff was a little hard to understand but not a big problem. Good menu. Full bar. We'll definitely be back.

    We ate from the lunch buffet which had a nice selection of typical dishes (not spicy, which was fine for me). The staff was very helpful, especially with my friend who was using a walker and couldn't effectively carry her plate. They filled it for her, and carried it to the table, checking on us several times to make sure all was ok.

    The food at Tikka Masala is excellent and the staff are so friendly and accommodating. We were able to enjoy our meal in a quiet part of the restaurant, which has a good layout and nice ambiance.

    Nothing exceptional. For the first time I had goat meat in an Indian restaurant. It was ok but didn’t meet my expectations. An average Indian restaurant.
