    Chicken masala, samosas and garlic naan.

    when I tell you, the food is on top of its game! Very tasty and quick service. But even more than that, everyone who works here has been VERY nice, courteous and helpful. I definitely recommend this place for damn near. Perfect Indian food.

    Garlic Naan

    First time visit and man, we loved it! The restaurant was spotless and a fun environment! The food was so delicious! We had Tikka fries, a shrimp and a chicken tikka masala, and garlic naan. So good! Tons of food at a great price and the team were super nice and courteous! They gave excellent service and were a pleasure to interact with! We can't wait to go back!

    Ever since we came my partner has been asking when we'll come back, and we definitely will be coming back! Easy and clear on how to order, good variety of options, food came out hot, fresh, and quickly. The tikki masala fries (forgot a picture) with tikka sauce were delicious, and the seasoning will definitely get all over your fingers, so be prepared. I'm a big fan of their rice, super fragrant, I got the Yellow Daal Curry with Chicken (Medium) - unfortunately it was just a little too spicy for my (admittedly low) tolerance, but the flavor was good and the spice wasn't an immediate kick, it coats the mouth. My partner got the Tikka Masala with Lamb (Mild) and it was quite tasty, the lamb was good with no noticeable gaminess. They provided plenty of naan and roti- both were tasty and definitely would order just one next time (we were feeling a bit hungry lol).

    TikTok influenced me to try this franchise. I had never had Indian food before, but have been open to trying it. I went around noon on a Monday and the dining room was not busy. However their DoorDash, Uber Eats, and personal online ordering pick up was busy. It was hard to get a close parking spot at the front of the restaurant, but I was able to find parking elsewhere. The restaurant was clean, full of natural light, and delicious scents of spices were in the air. I was greeted upon entering and the employee was very kind. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala with medium spice level, the Chicken Biryanis w/ medium spice level, garlic naan bread, and the mango lemonade. Both dishes were very good and well seasoned. It's hard to say which one I preferred over the other because they were both great choices. The garlic naan did not taste like anything. Maybe the cooks mixed up my naan order with another to go order. The mango lemonade was decent. It was not overly sweet which I appreciated. Next time I go I want to try the mango lassi. The food did not take long to come out. Maybe 7-10 minute wait time and the food was fresh and piping hot. Overall I spent $31 dollars on my food. By the way this is a cashless establishment. If I had to rate my first time experience. I would give it a 10/10. I plan on returning to Tarka and trying other items on the menu. I am taking friends and family here next time.

    Very cozy establishment! When I say cozy I mean a relaxing environment where you can enjoy great food! Pet friendly! I set outside with my Frenchie while she enjoyed the weather. The Rose lemonade was awesome! So refreshing! The food is amazing itself too! I can say my chicken biryani was ok! The flavors were good but something was missing! The wings were soooooo good! I'm speechless! I will definitely return soon! The wait time was not bad at all! This establishment is in a shared parking lot!

    Just stopping in to pick up dinner. It was pick up and go but this employee Elsa was just over the top kind. Her smile is magical and contagious she's definitely the kind of person that brings joy to any establishment. They are lucky to have her here on to the food They now have cheese naan which I decided to try this time along with my typical biryani rice and curry chicken and tarka Dal. Their mango lemonade is wonderful basically everything you try here you will love. It's definitely my go-to spot for home style cooking with fast food preparation.

    This was my first time trying out Tarka food, I would definitely recommend it their food. It was delicious, I will definitely be back.

    Garlic Naan to-go
    Pree R.

    Tarka offers a great selection of North Indian food for veg and non-veg tastes. They're located in a nice part of Spring, with other cool eateries such as Cava and Urban Bird (the latter replaced BGood, unfortunately) are. I got some food to-go on a weeknight, and it included a serving of garlic naan and Kofta Korma, the latter of which is a dish based in a nut gravy with potato-based "meatballs". Normally the korma comes with rice, but I asked for naan instead of rice, and just had to pay the difference. The portions were more than enough for one person! Perhaps it's because I'm now used to the "smaller" portions offered in European restaurants (including Indian restaurants based in Europe), but I had a difficult time finishing all the Kofta Korma plus naan. But nevertheless, it all tasted delicious! I asked for medium spice, and it was perfect.

    This place never disappoints. Chicken Tikka Masala is clutch as always. Paneer and samosas made for a great appetizer. Place is clean and service is friendly and quick. Worth a check out.

    3 semi adults and 1 grandbaby enjoyed our meals. We sampled everything. The vegetable samosas were very tasty. My wife got the child's portion of chicken tikka masala with no heat. I got the chicken tikka masala with 3 out of 4 heat level, almost too hot but I ate half and saved the rest for later. Our daughter-in-law had a cheesy naan and shared it, very good. She also had a mild chicken tikka masala. She got a small order of fries for the youngster. I had a regular naan, usually go with garlic but the plain hit the spot. My wife and I usually get the hot chai tea and then pour it over ice, try it! You'll like it. We love that they let you order a smaller portion, the only down side is it has to be mild...

    Cool little simi fast food joint. Food is very good. Tika was very good. Naan was fresh chewy and delicious. Authentic Music playing to round it all out.

    Food was great! I don't even know what I ordered but it was delicious! Service was fine and ambiance was like another restaurant.

    Great food every time, nice staff. Quantity is on a smaller side, but justified with the low price. Everything is excellent! Thanks.

    While on a family vacation from Boston, we came across this food truck because it was completely…read morevegetarian, and I'm so glad we stopped. The food was absolutely outstanding and instantly brought back memories of home in India. Every dish was packed with authentic flavors and tasted like it was made with genuine care. The food did take a little longer than expected, but after the first bite, it was easy to understand why. Everything was clearly made fresh, with love and authenticity not rushed. I'd much rather wait a few extra minutes for food of this quality. If you're looking for authentic vegetarian Indian food, this place is definitely worth the stop. We'll absolutely be back the next time we're in the area!

    We were driving back home and saw this food truck in the parking lot on the way back from Whole…read moreFoods on Louetta. Decided to get the pani puri, samosa chat and the masala fries. The pani puri was good - especially the imli chutney. The "pani" had a nice flavor but the chutney really took it to the next level. I do wish that there was a little more filling inside the puris but overall it was good. The samosa chat was very good. I would say 8/10. But the star of the show was the masala fries. There were two different types of masala on top and they really made you feel like you were back "home" having these from the street vendors. They were crispy on the outside and just melted in your mouth delicious on the inside. The contrasting flavors of the two different powders on top really made it magical in your mouth. Like the fries were so good we got a second order. When I placed the second order of the fries, I also got a chai. The owner/worker is so nice that he asked me how I wanted the chai i.e. strong/sweet/etc. It took a while for them to bring it out which means that it was made to order and it tasted fantastic! I can't wait to go back and try the other items when I am back in the area.
