Customer Review Summary
Sharing plates draw repeat mentions, with reviewers highlighting the trio of Dosa, a fish special small plate, and tapas spreads alongside mains like Black Dal with naan and keema pancakes at the £12 lunch deal. Several describe a lively, relaxed atmosphere with well-made cocktails and quick drink service, and one Sunday visit included a Thali offer and a complimentary dessert. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and accommodating, adjusting spice levels on request. A recurring host and manager draw particular praise for hospitality. Against this, one diner reports being served a mushroom biriyani from the vegan menu that turned out to contain dairy, a concern given a long-standing dairy-free diet, and says a replacement dish still didn't match what was ordered, with the bill discrepancy unresolved beyond an offered free drink. A separate visitor describes being seated in a cold spot by the door and denied a table move despite empty tables, though a heater was brought over. Most others describe leaving full and planning to return.

“£12 lunch deal - really delicious. Good portion size. Also, the keema pancakes were delicious!”

“Went here on a whim. Very very glad we did, best Indian meal I’ve had in years. This is not your standard post pub curry house. The food was genuinely brilliant and although we ordered way too much it was all absolutely lovely. I really …”

“This place is a gem for fusion lovers! The Chili Chicken and Chicken Manchurian are spot-on Indo-Chinese, while the Chicken Biryani stays deliciously traditional. Quick service, bold flavours—best of both worlds on one plate. Excellent value for money”

“Went to Tikka Tikka for dinner and drinks with a group of friends and had a really good time. The place had a great buzz. It was lively but still comfortable enough to sit back and enjoy the evening. We ordered a mix of starters and mains to share, and everything came out well-presented and packed with flavour. Drinks were quick to arrive and really well made. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the whole experience feel smooth and relaxed. Overall, it was one of those easy, enjoyable nights out with great food, good drinks and a nice atmosphere. Definitely somewhere I’d come back to with friends.”

“I normally don’t ever write review for any restaurants I go to but this particular restaurant was so good that here I am writing it. I went Sunday evening and the food was very fresh. The manager Roy was very accommodating and friendly. He kept my wet umbrella aside instead of keeping it with me or by the entrance. He and his staff explained the special offer they were doing on Sunday. Sunday Thali I recommend this to people who like trying varieties of dishes. I got 3 tapas, 2 Sunday Thali, mango lassi and nimbu soda all for £56. Although we were full, at the end Roy gave use free complimentary dessert which was light and lovely. I highly recommend this place as the interior of this place is beautiful and very instagramable. Definitely will be returning.”
