Food and service were quite awesome. They give rice with every main course vegetable which is quite unique and great. We ordered kadhai paneer and garlic naan and taste was superb.

Stopped for dinner at Tikki Masala my way home from a visit in Jamaica Plain - it was great. Outstanding Indian cuisine and very friendly service! Started with samosas - very good - and followed up with two entrees - chicken mango and chicken korma; both excellent. Also had naan - so good . Tikki Masala has my strongest recommendation - I will definitely return!!

We enjoyed the quality of the food and service. Veggie platter was very well made and crisp. My personal favorite was Veggie wrap that had chickpeas and tofu with the right amount and blend of spices.We also had biriyani, tandoori chicken and mango lassi which we enjoyed it.

10/10. Very accommodating with no rush. Came in from out of town with loads of bags and they had no issues. Quickly fed with very tasty food! All the meats were outstanding and tender.

I stopped in for take out after a long day of work on Saturday 3/22/25. I wanted to try something different from my normal order, the young woman working the tables suggested the Korma. Best thing I did today was take her recommendation, it was exactly what I was craving! Thank you for making my Saturday night! I am sorry I did not get her name, but she was absolutely phenomenal!

Really tasty authentic India food. We ordered dahi papdi and Mali kofta and it was delicious. The service by the girl at the counter was really great.

Tikki Masala was our first introduction to what proved to be a foodies paradise in the great city of Boston. With family from Fall River, I thought that my nostalgia for New England was the root of my affection for this place. However, the approval from the rest of our ten group party affirmed that my affection was justified. Cannot recommend Tikki Masala high enough. The food was authentic Indian, the service exceptional and the atmosphere pure “whole in the wall”, “side of the road”, “diamond in the rough” perfection. Will make a point to visit again when back in Boston.

This is my favorite (go-to) Indian food restaurant in Boston! I have a very delicate palate & prefer authentic & real food- and the food gives authentic Indian! I love that they have fish options , mainly why we chose this this spot -I had the Fish(haddock) Masala, my partner had the Fish( haddock) mango, both were equally delicious . In a world of fast & fake food, this spot is! The food is delicious, the service was lovely, the atmosphere is positive and there's on street parking ! I highly recommend - esp for vegan /vegetarians
