Reviews for Tikka Shack Indian Grub in Lubbock, TX
Was absolutely delicious. My little brother took me to this location bc we wanted Indian food, safe to say that it did not... dissapoint. Had such a great environment on the inside to employee had a great vibe Read more
Didn't have high expectations as I would normally eat at an actual Indian restaurant. We got the Lamb Goan Vindaloo and Butter... Chicken Masala and they were both very good and flavorful. Much more than I was expecting! That's about where it ends. The ricewas bland and not even lukewarm and the garlic naan had almost no flavor. I feel like I would get more garlic flavor fromsomeone's breath because it was basically just a piece of bread we had to pay $1.50 for. Unfortunately, I feel like everythingcosts too much for what you get That being said, the staff were also nice and cordial. All in all, we certainly didn't hateanything and we wouldn't hesitate going back again Read more
My first time eating Indian fast-food and I am impressed! Chicken Tikka makes a great pannini style wrap.
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 weare in the mood for some Indian food. I highly recommend the same for anyone whenever they venture down Milwaukee Ave. Read more
I went there and had the chicken kabab bowl. I got a bit disappointed from the amount of chicken. It's not much compared to the... rice amount and naan. It seems like too much carb with less protein. They gave mangoe in salad which is new to me. Theirchicken and lamb are halal. But beef is not halal. Read more
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 thingsfrom the menu. Everything was amazing. I have been back three times, and each time it has been delicious.

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 workedwell and let us schedule our order pickup time easily. We had the southern curry, the lamb korma hot, and the saag. Our boyshad the Naan pizza and the kids kabob and the mango and strawberry lasi. The restaurant was modern, clean, and new. The staffwere polite and took care of our order and were accurate. The restaurant was nice but defiantly lacks the small family feel ofmost Indian food restaurants. The food was good and had flavor and decent heat but not great and while good lacked the fullcreaminess and spice of a good curry. The portion size was just right but seemed light on the sauce. The basmati rice wasdecent but once again not great. The Naan was good but definitely on the small side. If you enjoy eating you curry using Naanpieces 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 ofyogurt don't order it. We were disappointed in the lack of traditional desert options such as Kheer which is ourfavorite. The kids pizza was very good and cheesy and the small kabob was nice with decent char but lacked the flavor and colorof a good tandoori chicken. Our kids ate this adequately. This was a good quick stop and filled our curry craving but itdefinitely lacked the traditional curry and Indian food experience and full creaminess and umami flavors we expect. If you arelooking for a quick meal or a more americanized version of Indian food this is a good spot but if you have time I woulddefinitely pass on this for a more traditional Indian food family restaurant.

I used to love this place for years. Buttered Masala was my favorite... I'll get to eat it one last time cold, because the staff... wouldn't bother to bring it to the table nor say it was ready to go for over 10mins. In an empty restaurant nonetheless, Ishould have taken that as a red flag. Not that I was expecting much from this place since the past curries, specially the TikkaMasala, have been deluted to tomato soup. Decrease in food value and now customer service too. There are more restaurants inLubbock, save your money and time, go somewhere else. Read more
