I went to NYC Tikka Masala and had an amazing experience. The place looks really nice and well-decorated—it has a cozy and modern vibe. They also play good music, which makes the whole atmosphere even better. The food was delicious! Everything I tried had great flavor and was fresh. You can tell they care about how the food tastes and looks. The customer service was also really good. The staff were kind, respectful, and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. Overall, it was a lovely experience. I had a great time and would definitely come back again!

I dined in on a Tuesday evening. The food was delicious, and my waiter showed hospitality. I was thankful the waiter offered different spice levels to the biryani I ordered.

This restaurant in Flushing is an absolute gem! Hands down the most authentic, fresh-to-order Indian cuisine I’ve had in NYC. I’ve tried all the top Indian spots across Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens, and none compare to the rich flavors and authenticity of this place. Every dish is simply outstanding, and we don’t go a single week without ordering from here. Thank you Laxmi and hats off to the chef and the rest of the team!

This is one of the best Indian food restaurants in NYC! I always order take out, and food is always fresh, tasty and so flavorful. Food also comes fast as well. I have ordered many items such as garlic Nan, vegetable samosas, chicken biryani, butter chicken kathi roll, samosa chat and the amazing sauces are delicious. Highly recommend this wonderful, traditional restaurant.

I am a regular eater at NYC Tikka Masala. The food is exceptional with great ingredients. Real cream, coconut, and nut bases make all the curry dishes rich and hearty. Their rolls are the best in the city with fresh parsley and mint, and their secret sauce. I highly recommend!

I love the fact that the food is made to order... You will wait a few mins but it's worth every moment waiting ....With that being said this is made with love and care. Have only tried the veg options so far the samosas and Daal with that I ordered the tawa roti.... Very traditional and felt like a homemade meal! Probably some of the best I've had in NY. Excellent, flavorful and finished every bite! Can't wait to try the rest of the menu.
