What Andrew Seidenfeld likes about Tikka Grill:
I am SO grateful that this place remains open through many years. They call it chicken Tikka but what it is is a hefty kebab freshly grilled ground chicken with spices, served with naan bread, and spicy yogurt sauce, for five bucks. It's substantial, but more than that, indescribably delicious. They don't seem quite hindu or quite Muslim, I can't quite place it, but these hardworking Americans serve LaGuardia's taxi... View all feedback. What Albina Cummings doesn't like about Tikka Grill:
Wow! We are so surprised there are so many high ratings! Our meal was horrible. This is the worst Indian food we have had in Ny. This is your warning. And I feel bad, as I know restaurant have to deal with pricing hikes, but yuck. The Chicken tiki masala tastes like Chef Boyardee. A distinctive canned tomato paste flavor. The palak aloo, also tasted like it was straight from a can. Hardly any seasoning, and inedible.... View all feedback.

Been going to this place for 20 years. Food if great and cheap compared to other places. Not a good place to dine in. Best option is pick up.

Tikka Grill has received mixed reviews, with some customers praising the delicious and affordable dishes, such as the chicken tikka kebab and fresh nan bread. Others, however, have expressed disappointment with the lack of seasoning and overall taste of some dishes. Despite this, many customers have shown loyalty to the restaurant over the years, appreciating the unique flavors and welcoming atmosphere. Some have even gone as far as traveling back to the restaurant after years of absence to enjoy their favorite dishes once again. Overall, while some may have had a less than stellar experience, others have found Tikka Grill to be a hidden gem for satisfying late-night munchies and authentic Pakistani cuisine.

Hole in the wall at the corner of Astoria Boulevard and 82nd StreetIf you don't drive an Uber, yellow taxi or limo then you'll be in the minority.
