Tikka House - Fish in a bed of rice. - Indian Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

Definitely a spot with potential, and up front, I'd recommend trying them out. So I got this via delivery since I arrived in town late and was ready to eat and call it a night. Unfortunately, there was no option to request utensils and they didn't include any, so this whole meal was a bust. I'm not taking that out on the review here, just making a note so hopefully they take note to include that option. The hotel I was in didn't have any, and most places around were closing so I was out of luck. I ended up having to fashion some sort of scoop out of the styrofoam container that the rice came in. Did it work? No. But was it at least serviceable? Also no. It was a freaking mess and I basically ended up pitching it. But from what I could taste in between dripping bites all over my hotel room was pretty good! I went with the basics and got a chicken tikka masala. It was not quite the medium spice level, so I'd round up if you like spicey. The chicken was great quality; very tender and flavorful, definitely the highlight. The vegetable samosas were nice and easy to eat so I had two of these which are always good. Same feedback as above, needs a little more spice and flavor in the filling but solid. So all in all, in the unique situation of arriving late and getting hung out to dry on utensils, not great. But the food and prices and everything else were fair to good, so I kind of land in the middle with this one. read more

I truly enjoyed all the food here. The service was quick, and our server was very kind. But there was something missing. I ordered Medium and it was VERY mild. The food tasted great, but the spice level left a lot to be desired. My partner ordered Spicy and felt it was still lacking in hard hitting spice. I'd say this is a great place for introducing someone to Indian food. Everything was still delicious but it's far from the most incredible Indian food I've ever had. A very safe option for sure. If you struggle with hot food, give this place a try! If you're looking for ultimate flavor, I'd say pass. read more

I'm a big fan of Indian food and I typically order it when I'm on the road. So after settling into my hotel room during a trip to Louisville, I did a quick search on Yelp and found Tikka House. Fellow Yelp Elite Emily H. had great things to say so I was sold. They also had my favorite dish. Ding, ding! I ordered for pickup directly off their website and was given a 20 minute wait time. When I arrived, there was plenty of parking out front, as it's in a small strip mall. When I walked in no one greeted me. I called out for someone a few times... nothing. After several minutes I noticed my food sitting on a table behind the counter. After calling out again and not getting an answer, I grabbed my food and left. It was paid for and I was hungry so I peaced out. Once I got back to my room I was starving so I dug right in. However, there weren't any napkins or utensils in the bag so I had to wait for room service. I guess that's what I get for just grabbing my food and bouncing. That being said, when it was time to eat, I enjoyed every bite. I ordered the navratan korma. This dish is super creamy and packed full of vegetables like carrots, peas, and cauliflower. It came with rice and I also got some of their bullet naan, which was spicy! All of it was really good but I probably would have gotten a mild spice level for my entree had a noticed how spicy the naan would be. Oh, and I got an order of the veggie samosa (3 pieces) and they were great, and enormous. Of course, I had leftovers which made for good snacking. I would be happy to eat here again! read more

Tikka House - Indian Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

Tikka House is one of my favorite Indian restaurants. It's got great tasting food that will fill you up. This time, I got the lamb korma with butter naan. Tikka provides nimki to every table (like chips at a Mexican restaurant), and they are delicious. It tastes so good and gets your appetite ready. The lamb korma was great. It doesn't look like a lot because it comes in a small dish, but there is more than it seems and it is very filling, especially with the unlimited rice. The butter naan was excellent and paired nicely with the lamb korma. The environment is very nice. It's calm and quiet and has a lot of seating. It's a tidy looking place with dim lighting that sets a nice dinner atmosphere. The servers are all very sweet. Our table didn't get too much attention so sometimes our waters ran dry, but if you call for the servers they are very responsive and friendly. Tikka House is an excellent place for Indian food that tastes great and fills up your stomach. It's a nice place to eat at and one of my favorites in Louisville! read more

Tikka House is the best Indian in Louisville! Always get the Chana saag and lamb tikka masala... perfectly seasoned and more flavorful than any other place I've tried. read more

First off I am thankful for Tikka Houses hours. We had a lot going on yesterday morning so we needed a late lunch spot. All the Indian places that are close to my area closed at 2:30 but not Tikka House, they were open from noon to 9. We were promptly greeted & seated upon arrival. They brought use out waters and a delicious little appetizer of some sort of chips and sauces that I loved! The entrees came out quick and hot! We ordered the Gobi Manchurian (fried cauliflower) it was very yummy, would have liked it a touch crispier but the flavor was great. I got the Chicken Tandoori, the chicken was so flavorful, moist on the inside and perfectly crispy on the outside (apparently I was wanting crispy foods). It came with a tomato sauce on the side that had just a hint of sweetness, it was delicious. Easily the best tandoori I've had. My husband ordered the chicken korma and he really enjoyed it. Spice was good and very creamy! Oh and last but not least the garlic Naan was delicious, had just enough char on the bottom and it was huge! Food was good. Service was good. All in all I would recommend and will for sure be going back. read more

Indian is my favorite cuisine and one that I cook often - this place is LEGIT! Don't sleep on it - go try their food and enjoy some excellent food! read more

So went here thinking that there was a lunch buffet, unfortunately no longer offering it. Info needs to be updated on Yelp. Nonetheless, pleasantly surprised with the taste and freshness of the food. Everything ordered was amazing. The flavors have no words, just the right amount of spice. The sauce provided was outstanding. Fast and pleasant service provided. So much food, had to box the left overs. The place is small and clean. Parking lot available. Definitely highly recommended if you are looking for something different, tasty, fresh, at a reasonable cost. Can't wait to go back and try other dishes. read more

Tucked behind Paul's Fruit Market is a small, unassuming restaurant that serves up some of the greatest Indian food around. My only wish is that it had not been such a raw, ugly, stormy day so we could have had the opportunity to sit outside. My entree was the Lamb Vindaloo (A spicy and tangy lamb curry cooked with potato cubes and light coconut milk). I asked for it to be spicy, and it sort of was? But not to the level I would have liked. Still extremely delicious though. Then, my friend who is mad for all things bread, ordered three huge naans: Cheese, garlic and bullet (Naan stuffed with green chilies and spices). These were crazy good and were so big there was a ton left over. I definitely want to try all the flavors! Service was prompt and professional, and the ladies who brought the food were so nice. Great place, if you like Indian food you will love it here! read more

Came here on derby day so it was pretty quiet but it was my first time at this restaurant and my friends recommended the Lamb Vindaloo and it was really good! Savory and I got medium spice which was the perfect amount for me. Comes with rice but I do recommend getting the Garlic Naan or one of the others to dip, very good! Will definitely come back. The restaurant is a good size so can accommodate big and small groups. Their menu also has a wide variety from different types of food to different selections of meats as well. read more

Easily the best Indian in Louisville. I've been around trying to find something that tops the vindaloo here, and nothing has come close.

I really like the food here for takeout. The dine in atmosphere is pretty lacking in ambiance and decor. I'm ok with that as the food is quite good. In terms of food, it's among the better Indian options locally - good flavor and heat. Meat portions are a bit sparse for the price, but it's a good option nonetheless. read more

We got tika house indian tonight for dinner and we went to pick it up. We ordered Gobhi Manchurian, very good and veg Korma, very good and we also got Butter chicken which was good as well. The food was ready in 10 minutes after ordering so that was nice. We will be back! read more

I enjoyed my time here! The food was really good. They have gobi Manchurian, which is a hard dish to find in Louisville, so I was excited. The service was excellent! It wasn't very crowded when we went, but it was early. The only complaint I have is that the chicken was dry, which keeps this from being 5 stars. I will definitely be back!! read more

This is a solid place. I would leave 5 stars if it wasn't for a few minor tweaks they could make. For an appetizer we got gobi Manchuria. That was fantastic! For the mains we got chicken tikka masala (came with white rice) and ordered some garlic naan bread. Both of these were great and the portions of the rice and naan especially were very generous The service was highly exceptional, it was probably some of the best service I've had in a while. I was glad to leave a larger tip than I usually would. They were absolutely on it. Only have a couple gripes. The chicken was pretty dry and this a bit tough to eat. Additionally, the entree price was quite high for not being shareable. Again, just kind of small gripes but not dealbreakers. Overall this was a great experience and I would go back again read more

Lacking. Based off reviews I was prepared to love this. Actually dashed some food the other day from here. The rice was lacking spice or flavor and I ordered the lentil soup only because it was buy one get one but only got one. The saag paneer was just ok. I won't be having food from here again but I wouldn't tell anyone not to try it out for themselves either. read more

come here all the time. It's always so good. Best Indian food in Louisville. Service great when eating in. read more

Tikka House - chai, butter chicken, garlic naan - Indian Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

I have been craving indian food for the longest time and really glad my friend took me to tikka house. We ordered the chicken 65 which almost looked like and reminded me of their version of general tso chicken. Lightly battered, crispy to give it a bite and that sauceee though. We ordered it medium since we both got vindaloo which is usually mad spicy. Ordered a side of chili garlic naan, we literally were trying to kill our insides i guess with all the spicy food. I am a spicy lover and when i want hot i expect hot. We got the chicken and lamb vindaloo which came with rice. Eat it with the rice it'll help with the spicyness. That said, my friend found hers spicy eventually. I sadly did not. It started out not spicy at all but slowly could taste more of the flavor and the heat. We both got it at a level 3. I guess i may need some more but then again i want to be able to enjoy and eat it. But i've had much spicier vindaloo where i could barely eat it after a while, i actually prefer my stomach to get killed if it's that numbing haha. But super good and flavorful. Fair amount of meat and potatoes in the dish as well. Craving satisified i could totally eat here again asap and ask to make it even spicier! read more

Delicious Indian food that hits the spot! I chose mild spice and it was spicer than I thought it would be. Their food did not disappoint. I went for a late lunch with friends; service was quick and easy. Staff was very welcoming and friendly, our waitress was patient and answered all of our questions about the menu. There was also no hassle when we asked to split our bill four ways. The buffet was closed when I went, but I'd definitely come back if they open it again. read more

Checked out Tikka House on a whim when one of our favorite restaurants was unexpectedly closed. We placed our order to go and honestly most everything was good! We ordered samosas, chicken tikka masala, rice, aloo paratha and garlic naan. The pricing was very fair in my opinion and it was ready sooner than the time quoted. The only issue with our order was the chicken was quite tough, which normally with chicken tikka it's pretty tender from simmering in the sauce. It was a bit off putting and I have a weird thing about tough chicken. All in all we will definitely order from them again, and I can totally see why it has the amount of stars it has! read more

Ordered delivery from this place and everything was wonderful! The chicken korma had just the right amount of heat and the cheese kulcha was also great. No complaints! read more

In my books I think this place has made it in my top 3 Indian restaurants in town. Especially during this covid times and there is a place to have Indian food. We had lamb vindaloo and chicken Bryani and a egg omelette with some cheese naan read more

Always love their vegetarian options! Togo is on point and always accurate. Their spices are amazing!

We had takeout and were very pleasantly surprised! Pros? Super flavorful veggie pakoras! Always a favorite of ours. Enjoyed the butter chicken... we never don't... but still they did it well Tandoori chicken was extra spicey... like too spicey... which is saying a lot considering we usually order super spicey food and are good. Not a bad thing, just be warned! Fast service Cons? Naan bread came a bit undercooked Pricing was high but that could've been cause we were stuck ordering in on an app... read more

Need a fun spot for a date or to catch up with a friend? Tikka House should definitely be on your list. I met my best friend for dinner at this spot on Friday. We had great food and service throughout. Upon sitting down, I was immediately given a menu, and some free fried crispy strips and sauces were placed in the middle of the table for me to munch on while waiting for my friend to arrive. We ordered our drinks and dug into the menu. So much of it looked good. We ended up starting our meal with Chicken 65. (Thanks so much for the recommendation, Mia N!) These pop-able chicken bites are batter-fried chicken cubes tossed with spicy yogurt chili sauce. They are lightly spicy but not too spicy for folks with sensitive tongues. They reminded me of an Indian version of boneless chicken wings and am looking forward to getting these again on a return visit. For my entree, I went with lamb vindaloo, a spicy and tangy lamb curry cooked with potato cubes and light coconut milk. I admit I'm a bit of a sissy; I got this on the mild side of spicy. But even still, it had a enough heat from the spice to warm me on on the cold winter night. The lamb was tender and the sauce flavorful. I also snuck a couple bites of chicken tikka masala -- a solid choice as well. The serving sizes were large -- more than enough to fill us up. And the prices were very affordable. All of the staff were attentive and professional. And as mentioned at the top of this review, this restaurant is good for a date. It's quiet and somewhat intimate. I'm particularly excited to come back for the lunch buffet. I'd love to try more of their delicious food. Tikka House is a must if you like Indian food and are in Louisville. read more

So many good things about Tikka House: -within biking distance of my house -open on Sunday evening -a plethora of vegetarian and vegan options -friendly, attentive staff -tasteful decor On our recent visit we tried: -Vegetable Mappas: potatoes, carrots, and peas swimming in a complex curry of spices and coconut milk. Great flavor, but a little saltier than I'm used to. Medium spice level was perfect. -Daal Tadka: yellow lentil curry made with onion, garlic, ginger, and tomatoes. Again, delicious, unique, and just a little salty. -Aloo Kulchha: the star of the show - naan stuffed with seasoned potato - blew my mind. Why I'll be back: there is a lunch buffet. What else do you need? read more

Wow. The food at Tikka House was amazing! One of the best places I've had Indian food in Louisville. Great location in Chenoweth square and it has a great ambiance for date night. We ordered the Garlic Naan (A MUST) to share which was so tasty! Not too thick, nice texture and delicious garlic taste. We ordered two dishes, the chicken tikka masala and a lamb dish. Portions were definitely extremely generous! The rice was delicious too, but the chicken tikka masala was the star!! The only reason I didn't give five stars is because of service. They were very under-staffed the night we came. There was one waitress. She was also the hostess, the food runner, and she was getting food ready for the dozens of door dash and grub hub employees picking up. You know it's good when that many people are ordering takeout! So the one waitress we had did her very best, but they definitely could have benefited from other staff! We will be back and hope for more staff next time!! read more

It's a fairly small restaurant that accomplishes a cozy and warm atmosphere. I haven't tried anything here that I didn't like, and would highly recommend the korma curry and veggie pakora. The pakora are crunchy and savory with just enough spice. Combine that with the tamarind sauce they come with, and it's heaven! read more

My wife and I came here for lunch, we were very pleased with our experience. The naan bread was excellent and the variety of bread available was amazing!

It was quiet when I came here on a Wednesday evening around 5 and it was empty. It's a good vibe for a date. I saw some people come in here for to go and one other couple came and ate a meal. Service was quick. They gave complimentary naan (or maybe they were pita) chips with tamarind sauce and some onions mixed with red stuff at the beginning of our meal. We also got yummy gulab jamun at the end. So good! We shared dishes. We got one order of garlic naan which is just one naan cut into four. And then we shared chicken tikka with lamb curry. If you mixed the sauces, it really had some heat! I think they were both decent. The Tikka didn't have much chicken in it. Also, the food just was alright. Not sure why I wasn't fond of it but it was just okay. The guy came with our check and when we asked him to split it in three he didn't...ummm. Ugh. I was annoyed as heck because it's really not that hard. Just split the freaking check! read more

Cravings for Indian food hit different, ya know? I mean when you get that craving it is something nothing else will satisfy. Do you have that or are you able to drop a craving because you aren't laser focused with your ADHD?? Just kidding (not really). Anyway, they were open later than other restraunts in the area and I was hooked and had to find some good food. It is not a 5-star for me because the food is good and the service was good. It could definitely be improved - like make the chicken that is supposed to be crispy, actually crispy. Anyway, it satisfied my craving and if they prepared the "fried" foods and they were crispy then I would be happier. I have a favorite but didn't want to drive that far so it did hit the spot. read more
