I love Wow Tikka. Have been there couple times and it has always been an amazing experience. It is basically an Indian Chipotle concept style of food . Choose your bowl or wrap , protein , toppings , sauces etc. and top it off. The proteins range from Chole (chickpea), Jeera aloo (cumin potatoes) to chicken and lamb meatballs and vegan meatballs. Their sauces are actually different curry sauces for that authentic feeling. Yes it is quite different and modified than actually curries to fit the food but tasty none the less. I have had their Tandoori chicken which is amazing as well as vada pav. I believe Gopi is the manager there and he is the nicest guy so are the staff. he is always smiling and helping customers understand the items if needed. i seen it couple times now. Overall great place to go for quick lunch or healthy dinner and enjoy the freshness of the ingredients read more

WOW I was dreaming of T swizzle (Taylor swift) when I suddenly had a craving for modern Indian food at a bistro. I specifically wanted a chipotle-style bowl. As a solitary student in the Boston area, it can be hard to get a single serving of Indian food. Alas, I was heartbroken that such a place didn't exist. I confronted my lover who was largely indifferent to my plight as he can cook Indian food for himself. BUT one day, out of the blue, I got a text from the said lover. It said WOW we should go this place. I was like hell yeah. We went and the food was impeccable! 10/10 would recommend. Tell your kids, family and friends. And cats too. PS it can be healthy but it doesn't have to be. PPS get gulab jamun after a Red Sox game, it'll hit different read more

i am obsessed with wow tikka. i'm a college student and this place is every college students dream. i would die for their bowls. i am so serious i shed a tear the first time i tried their bowls. i would do anything for my weekly wow tikka. love you guys read more

A real little gem in Boston! Authenticity and Intent is what you will feel immediately when you eat here. True and superlative Indian food , no compromise on flavor, texture and ingredients. It's a must have for everyone visiting or living in Boston! Congratulations and Kudos to you , Mr. Gopi Nair fantastic job! read more

Wow Tikka - Vada Pao, Paneer Kathi Roll and Samosa Chaat- Simply Yum! - Indian Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Unfortunately, they missed a number of parts of my order: mint sauce, cucumber salad, and added an extra spicy sauce that I wasn't able to eat. Since it was take out, I didn't realize until I got home. :( I imagine the food is wonderful - it smelled great! My husband enjoyed his. read more

This place is the absolute best. It is amazing, flavorful, affordable, and allergen friendly, The Tandoori chicken legs are an absolute steal for $8.99 and the biryani rice is delicious. I was so surprised at how affordable it was for Boston and the interior is very cozy and casual. The employees are always very very nice and the service is quick plus they have super efficient online ordering/pickup. I really appreciate how accessible this makes delicious Indian food especially as a student looking for a good deal (this place SAVED my finals week). I cannot recommend Wow Tikka enough. If you're in the area and in the need for a quick, delicious, and cheap meal there is nowhere better. read more

Wow Tikka is a delicious fast-food Indian restaurant serving up classic Indian street food as well many modern, fast-casual options such as burritos and bowls. It is located close to Fenway, which means parking is very hard to find if you're not a resident. The restaurant itself is small and only has a handful of tables, which works well for the type of fast-food options they are serving. I've done takeout twice and enjoyed the food both times. I've only tried the classic, fast-food items as that is what I'm most familiar with and have been recently craving. The items I've tried so far are the aloo tikka chaat, samosa chaat, and vada pav. Both chaats were delicious and really hit the spot in what I was expecting in terms of ingredients and flavor. Pomegranate seeds would have been a nice touch but the dishes were still great without them. The vada pav was also delicious but a little bit salty; it has the right consistency and taste but could have done with a little less salt. Nonetheless, I would definitely give it another try. So what best sums up the food at Wow Tikka? So beautiful, so elegant, just tasting like a wow! read more

Went here for their Samosa chat and it was fantastic. Perfect balance of samosas and other ingredients. Amazing price, only $8.50 for a full meal is insane and they only took 5 minutes when I walked in on a busy Thursday night. read more

This restaurant filled a space missing in Boston's culinary scene- Indian Fast Casual with a build-your-own twist. The restaurant is well-priced for the quality and quantity of food. As someone well-versed in Indian food and also a big fan of build-your-own burrito restaurants, I knew I had to try this new spot. Here's what I got: Vegetarian Bowl- with White Rice, Aloo, Chana, (additional $2) Veg Kofta with the Tikka Masala Sauce and a variety of toppings. Beautifully crafted and a great amount of food in the bowl. The options are wonderful, authentic, and very vegan/vegetarian friendly. The only qualm I have is the depth of flavor seemed slightly lacking in the Tikka Masala but this was likely due to the fact that I had 3 main "proteins" and lots of other toppings to get the full flavor. The bowl was tasty and lasted multiple meals. (9.5/10) Vegetable Samosa- Crispy outside and stuffed with great flavor, especially great with the tamarind chutney. (9/10) Naan- My favorite thing to do at BYO burrito places is to get a side tortilla and, here, I tried the same thing with the naan! It wasn't much like an authentic stone-fired naan, slightly closer to a roti, but perfect for this type of Indian fast casual especially for those getting the wraps. The naan had a great flavor and size, definitely get it with your bowls to have a full Indian cuisine experience! (8.5/10) Overall, this place is a gem in Boston that we are lucky to have. The customizable aspect is a fresh take on most people's experiences with Indian food. They are great at explaining the ingredients and the website has a good amount of information too. I'll definitely be back! I would definitely recommend it especially for people with dietary restrictions like vegetarians, vegans, and gluten-free! read more

Had lunch delivered to the office from this place. What a surprise! You order like cafeteria style like chipotle or poke where you get a base, pick a protein or two, add a sauce like korma or tikka masala, add some toppings like sautéed vegetables, some chutneys, all in a roll up like naan or in a bowl. Quite delicious. Chicken was super moist and juicy the korma was awesome flavors. read more

Wow tikka offers a delicious and hearty Indian food option in Fenway! We tried the build your own bowls and appreciate how you could choose different sauces for different parts of your bowl. We also tried the vegetable samosa and chicken tandoori, both of which were fresh and hot. This place does a great job making FLAVORFUL food without being overwhelming or too spicy. The management clearly cares about running a smooth and friendly establishment, and we will definitely be back!! read more

Fast-casual food that does not compromise value, flavor, or nutrition at all! My bowl was $10 and full of toppings, veggies, starches, beans, sauces - all the works! The menu is not just purely "build your own" bowls or burritos, as there are "street food" options, of which we got the vada pav (very spicy), kathi rolls, and desi loaded fries. They also have convenient online ordering. I would definitely order from here again! read more

Really tasty and flavorful bowls. Have tried the chicken tikka and lamb kofta. Both were great. The chicken is simple and delicious. The kofta is like little lamb meatballs that are really juicy and well seasoned. The madras sauce is delicious and all the toppings are fresh. A really great spot for a quick and casual lunch or other meal. read more

Wow Tikka gets a resounding 5 stars from me. If you haven't been here already, you need to. Gopi (the owner) is the heart and soul of this place. It's his goal to make Indian food approachable and convenient with his incredible menu. From customizable bowls to classic Indian street food, this place is truly a gem. And the prices are AFFORDABLE! If I was going to college in Boston I would legit be here every day. We will be back ASAP read more

Wow Tikka - Indian Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I forgot how much I love Indian food. What an amazing addition to the Fenway. The food is so tasty and fresh and super reasonable. So many different options and the samosa is probably the best I've ever had. They were kind enough to offer samples of each sauce before making a decision which was super helpful. I built my own bowl however there are more standard options as well. The staff, especially the owner are welcoming and know they have something special. Awesome food. read more

The workers here are so friendly, going out of their way to explain each food item and to supply free samples. The food is so flavorful and delicious! The prices are very fair and the portions are large. I also really appreciate that each item is labeled with whether it contains dairy or gluten. The concept of the restaurant is quite innovative-- like Chipotle but Indian food... and just a lot better. Excited to come back often! read more

Desi loaded fries with chicken- fresh, large portion, perfect for sharing. So flavorful! Turmeric chai latte- best chai latte in Fenway area, sweet but not overwhelming, can appreciate spices in tea So busy during the two nights I stopped by! Great customer service. Will keep coming back!! read more

I had a wonderful time here! The environment is comfortable and casual. I had a custom rice bowl with paneer and veg kofta. All the food tasted really fresh and the sauces and toppings were delicious. What really impressed me here was the service. I went with a friend and when we were ordering at the counter they didn't make us feel rush at all. They let us test the sauces and did a good job explaining what we could put in our bowls. Often at restaurants where you order at the counter and pick your ingredients I feel rushed and like they expect you to know what everything is, but not here. And when we were enjoying our meals at our table one of the staff members came up to us and said they were testing some new recipes in the kitchen and asked if we would like to sample. They brought out a delicious chicken recipe, and asked us what we thought about it. Everyone was beyond friendly and created a memorable experience. read more

Great service and tasty food. Came in on a weekday night and it was quite busy with almost all the tables full. It's like Cava but Indian food, you choose your base, protein, sauce, and toppings. There's also a lot of different sides and drinks to order from. read more

my Bengali husband and I had an unbelievable meal delivered from WowTikka. he loves his Indian food, but finding healthier options has been tough. Nothing was sacrificed for healthy in this meal. I had the bowl full of great greens and veggies with the chicken meat balls, he had the wrap also full of veggies and tikka chicken. we both absolutely loved the lighter take, as usually we way overdo an indi meal to the point of needing an immediate nap. can't wait to take our kids and grandkids for a Sunday brunch read more

Terrible food, and bad interior design, feeling weird in my stomach after having lunch here. You will definitively regret going in.

Incredible food and service! The food is fresh, filling, and reasonably priced. I recommend the naan kati roll and the turmeric chai, the chai is so smooth and rich. Great vegan options including their drinks :) will go here as often as I can! read more

AMAZING! The food here is incredible. If you are like me and are not as familiar with Indian sauces it's the perfect place because they let you sample them. This is a family run business and the kindness and atmosphere is one of the best in Fenway. The butter naan, mango lassi, and the turmeric chai latte are delicious! You can't go wrong when you build your own bowl, CHECK IT OUT! read more

Wow Tikka - Build your own bowl - Indian Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

This is some of the best food I have ever had. Wow! Tikka has created amazing sauces based on traditional Indian cooking and combined it with fresh vegetables and tasty meats. When eating this food i know it is healthy for me and tastes amazing. I also feel good after eating it. I recommend getting a bowl with half brown rice and salad. Get the Korma and Marsala sauce. Get the toppings including beats and Raita on top. Also try the samosas and mango lassi. Really the best food ever! read more

The food was amazing! Great service as well. Samosas and nutty khorma rice were so tasty.

This place is a must visit. Arguably the best food for your buck anywhere in Boston. Please go visit and do yourself a favor and order the loaded desi fries.....I promise you will be back for more. Extremely excited to find this place so close to me and will be a frequent visitor. read more

Fantastic food at affordable prices. The food is incredibly flavorful, I had the aloo tiki chat and it was some of the best indian food i've had. Lots and lots of depth to the food. Came back and got a bowl and it was very nice. I expect to be coming here very often... read more

Surprised how good it is! I hope they do large format restaurant sometime so we can taste more of their style!

We've been pretty much dining here every weekend, driving all the way from Winchester. Fenway has a very special place in my heart - my husband and I called this neighborhood our first home when we married six years ago. To know that our old neighborhood now has a legit Indian fast food joint makes me happy, and gives the two of us all the more reasons to drive back here on the weekends. The bowls here just can't go wrong. Like others have mentioned, the sauces add so much depth and bring it all together. The chickpea adds a ton of flavor and the corn and beans adds so much texture. Moving to the vada pavs, I think I can confidently say that this is one the best vada pavs i've had in ages. I would also argue that this might be even better than what you'll find in some popular restaurants in Bombay. Samosas 10/10. Fresh, hot and the chutneys perfectly complement the dish. I must also mention that their madras cold coffee is an absolute delight. The decoction from which it's prepared can't get any better that this and is approved by my Tamilian husband who takes his filter coffee very seriously. I also had their turmeric chai latte and i was instantly transported to india. Reminded me of malai (cream) badam milk + turmeric milk and chai. Can't get any better. Lastly, we had the privilege of meeting one of their founders, Gopi and it was such a delight to meet someone who's so passionate about bringing the Indian food to a global pedestal. We enjoyed our conversations with him and wish him all the best! All in all, Boston needed a place (adda)like Wow Tikka and i get a very strong feeling that they'll do very well. read more

This new spot is a very welcome addition to Fenway. Their ingredients are really fresh, with the sauces and produce being standouts. It's satisfying and flavorful without being heavy or greasy. The staff is friendly and really helpful to provide recommendations to help build your bowl or wrap. They clearly have chosen to build a more focused menu compared to other Indian restaurants, but they have done so to ensure everything is made well. This will be a new regular spot for us! read more
