"EXCELLENT FOOD (& CUSTOMER SERVICE); LAMB BIRYANI & CHICKEN SAAG. DELICIOUS!!! BUT DELIVERY FEE... SO EXPENSIVE :("
"The lamb Biryani was ok. Very one note. Asked for medium spicy and it was not spicy at all. Most of the rice was broken and in smaller pieces. Not too much lamb for like $24? Missing a lot of herbs like coriander and lemon etc. Paneer Paratha was ok. Regular plain paratha would have been fine. The Saag Paneer and Tadka Yellow Dal were good."

"The food from Tikka stood out in taste the same way as I last dined there. They achieve a balance of flavors that's unparalleled. When I unwrapped the packaging of the Onion Kulcha I was hit with a burst of aroma! with every bite, I experienced the crunch of the onions and chewiness of the bread. The Amchur Bhindi Masala maintained the crunch of the Okra while the sauce coated the pieces. I was truly blown away by The dum Biryani With Raita for it's texture and incorporation of Jackfruit which did not make me miss any chicken! The raita had rock salt which just reminded me of home! Will certainly order from here again!"

"A loyal customer of Taj of India for a decade now, this is the only Indian restaurant I'll order from and my go-to when I need a pick me up, when I want to celebrate something, or when I just want to treat myself. The Lamb Roganjosh is so warm and flavorful, and it literally melts in your mouth. Even the rice it comes with is fragrant and tasty on its own. The butter chicken and the tikka masala are also part of my regular rotation. The Garlic Naan is perfect by itself or dragged through sauce, and the cheese naan is just as good. I also love getting a side order of the Daal Soup and adding the Rice Kheer my cart right before I check out because I can never resist it --- perfectly creamy for dessert but not too sweet, which is exactly what I like. I can't say enough good things about this restaurant!"
"It was really good and the shrimp were high quality and perfectly cooked but for $24 it would have been nice to get more than 5 shrimp in the Shrimp Tikka Masala (N)"

"Good food and amazing portions for its price, really the best of both worlds. Usually, I find the portions or food in most Indian restaurants on this app either subpar or expensive but this place is great in both those categories. One of my favorites so far near my location."

"I recently door dashed at Nando’s Peri Peri for a team lunch at work, and I have to say, it was a disappointing experience. I ordered the chicken thighs, but what I received was far from satisfying. The “thighs” were so small they barely qualified as actual chicken thighs—more like overgrown chicken nuggets. On top of that, the chicken was extremely dry. I spent $14.19 for essentially three tiny pieces of what I’d barely call chicken, which left me feeling shortchanged and unsatisfied. I usually budget $17 per person for work lunches, and this meal didn’t even come close to meeting that expectation. It was such a letdown that I couldn’t even get a full meal out of it. I won’t be ordering any time soon."
"The ONLY good thing about this delivery is that it got to me within 15 mins. The canned drink was dusty and warm AND EXPIRED Feb 11 2023. The 2 sides I paid extra for were less than 3 tespoonfuls worth and NOT WORTH anything extra. The chicken skin was slimy, felt like it needed to be cooked more. This was the worst $40 dollars I have EVER PAID for for food. I want a refund."

"Super amazing!! We have tried so many indian places in the area and this is top tier with Indigo. This place reminds me of my childhood in texas eating at indian buffets with my family.
