My fiancé and I ate here and had the Tikka masala and I had the spicy original curry with steak. The food was delicious and cooked very well. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere of the place was to our liking. We like to eat here whenever we are in the mood for some Indian food. I highly recommend the same for anyone whenever they venture down Milwaukee Ave.
An authentic Indian jewel hiding in Lubbock!
This a great place to get some tasty Indian cuisine. A buddy and I were out looking for something new cuisine. I did a search, and this location popped. We came here and ordered several different things from the menu. Everything was amazing. I have been back three times, and each time it has been delicious.
We had pizza with chicken and chicken 65. Both were delicious. Food in this Tikka Shack is way better than the 9th street Tikka Shack.
Best foods with Good service. Highly recommend.
My wife and I love Indian and food and have eaten it throughout the country and internationally. This was our 1st experience at a Tikka shack and we did take out as we drove into town later in the evening. The website app to order was easy and worked well and let us schedule our order pickup time easily. We had the southern curry, the lamb korma hot, and the saag. Our boys had the Naan pizza and the kids kabob and the mango and strawberry lasi. The restaurant was modern, clean, and new. The staff were polite and took care of our order and were accurate. The restaurant was nice but defiantly lacks the small family feel of most Indian food restaurants.
The food was good and had flavor and decent heat but not great and while good lacked the full creaminess and spice of a good curry. The portion size was just right but seemed light on the sauce. The basmati rice was decent but once again not great. The Naan was good but definitely on the small side. If you enjoy eating you curry using Naan pieces you may want to order a double portion. The lassi had a nice fruity flavor and was creamy but if you are not a fan of yogurt don't order it. We were disappointed in the lack of traditional desert options such as Kheer which is our favorite.
The kids pizza was very good and cheesy and the small kabob was nice with decent char but lacked the flavor and color of a good tandoori chicken. Our kids ate this adequately.
This was a good quick stop and filled our curry craving but it definitely lacked the traditional curry and Indian food experience and full creaminess and umami flavors we expect. If you are looking for a quick meal or a more americanized version of Indian food this is a good spot but if you have time I would definitely pass on this for a more traditional Indian food family restaurant.
I didn’t like Indian food until I tried Tikka Shack. I eat here at least twice a week. The butter chicken masala is so good I was addicted after the first taste. The naan is also incredible. The staff is always super friendly, the restaurant is always clean, and service is pretty quick. It’s sort of like Panera in the way of price and quality. A little more expensive than fast food, but definitely worth it.
