Small place so nice and intimate perfect for me to just come and eat.

We ordered a few dishes, tikka, curries both lamb and veggie.

Very delicious and flavorful. I asked for extra spice and got it. Reasonably priced. Each curry tasted differently from each other. I had the lamb Gaon, gobi app, paneer tikka masala and tikka grill platter with garlic naan and cheese naan.

Garlic naan was spectacular but I’d skip on cheese naan next time.

I want to go back to try their biryani and other dishes. Had enough food to feed me 2 more times.

Also super friendly staff. Quality over quantity

Tikka Indian Cuisine is a fantastic spot with attentive service, a clean and welcoming ambiance, and an easy location with plenty of parking. The food was beautifully prepared. The Lamb Tikka Masala was rich and flavorful, and the Lemon Pepper Salmon was truly exceptional. Highly recommend for a great dining experience. We will definitely be back!

It was our first time here and my partner had never had Indian food before.

It was a really good dining experience. The clean environment, the taste of the food, and the friendly service were all impeccable.

My companion took the plunge and tried the lamb curry for the first time… He thanked me for encouraging him to try it , it was so delicious! He said he would come back to try other dishes.

What a little gem of a place. I was having such a sweet tooth before grabbing dinner and the mango lassi was just what I needed. I got the butter chicken and it didn’t disappoint. My partner got the tikki from the clay oven and he really enjoyed it. We got the garlic butter naan for the table and it was nicely balanced. For dessert we got the date cake and boy howdy that was so scrumptious. 10/10 would def recommend.

First time visiting this restaurant and it didn’t disappoint. Service was quick, friendly and efficient. Lunch menu was loaded with options, food came out quick and was excellent. We will be returning to Tikka again in the very near future.

We visited Tikka Masala Cuisine in Siesta Key Beach and overall had a good experience, though it was not the best from an authentic Indian taste perspective.

We ordered the combo meals with saag paneer and malai kofta along with naan. Each combo comes with two small quarter pieces of naan, which were not enough, so we had to order extra naan separately. The combos also include a small portion of rice and a dessert (rice pudding). The rice pudding was just okay, nothing special.

From an Indian food point of view, the flavors were on the mild side and the spices were clearly toned down. The food felt prepared to suit mostly non-Indian taste preferences, so if you are expecting bold, traditional Indian flavors, you may find it a little underwhelming.

That said, the food was fresh, well presented, and filling. For someone new to Indian food or who prefers mild flavors, this place is a decent option. Just don’t expect authentic Indian & strong spices or deep traditional flavors.

Tikka Indian Cuisine – A Comforting Indian Food Stop Near Venice Beach!
Just 12 minutes from Venice Fishing Pier, this cozy Indian restaurant turned out to be the perfect food spot after a long day of beach adventures and soaking in the sun.

After an action-packed day, we were on the hunt for hearty Indian food to wrap up the evening—and that’s when we discovered Tikka Indian Cuisine. There was a 20-minute wait, which was manageable thanks to their small but comfortable waiting area. Parking was easy and accessible, a big plus in the area. Given its popularity (mainly with local Americans), I’d highly recommend booking a table in advance—especially on weekends or holidays.

Ambiance & Service:
The ambiance is simple, clean, and fuss-free. Nothing fancy, but it delivers that relaxed, homely vibe perfect for winding down after a tiring day. Service was polite and relatively quick once seated.

Starters & Drinks:
We were welcomed with complimentary papad and chutneys, which is always a nice touch.
• Eggplant Chaat: Fried to perfection! The texture was lovely, though the chutneys served with it could’ve been fresher.
• Lemon Pepper Salmon Tikka: Cooked well but missed the lemon and pepper punch you’d expect from the name.
• Mango Lassi: Thick, creamy, and flavored beautifully with cardamom (elaichi).
• Lemonade: Unfortunately, this tasted more like a bottled drink than fresh or house-made.

Main Course:
We ordered the Shrimp Biryani, and this was undoubtedly the star of the night!
• Uniquely prepared with a lovely aroma, the biryani was packed with flavor and came with about 7 well-cooked shrimp.
• The presentation was excellent, and the spice level (we chose regular) was just right.
• For those who love extra heat, they offer a very spicy side chutney that elevates the dish even further.
• The roti was soft and paired nicely with the biryani.

Only small caveat: the portion size may feel a bit limited if you’re very hungry. It was just enough for me and my kiddo, but heavy eaters might want to order individual portions.

Extras:
They also serve wine and beer—great for those looking to chill out after a hot day outdoors.

✅ Final Thoughts:
Tikka Indian Cuisine offers a satisfying Indian food experience without burning a hole in your pocket. From flavorful dishes to decent service and a calm environment, it’s a spot I’d definitely recommend to anyone craving Indian food near Venice Beach. It may not be flashy, but it delivers where it counts—taste and value.

(P.S. Don’t forget to check out the food pics—they say it all!)

First time trying Indian food ever. I ordered the cauliflower appetizer, garlic cheese naan, butter chicken lunch set, and my husband ordered the chicken vindaloo lunch set. The naan was of course delicious- garlic, cheese, steaming hot, what more could you want? The cauliflower was by far one of my favorite things! I’m a texture person, and I love crunchy things so this was right up my alley. The flavor was amazing (it’s not spicy imo), paired with the crunchy outside and soft inside- couldn’t have been better! Especially since it came out super hot and fresh. The lunch set is a great deal! You get to try a little of everything for a great price! So if you have never tried Indian food before, like me, this is right up your alley. Unfortunately I cannot remember the name of the appetizer- but it was good! A crispy pastry with a mash of peas and I believe meat inside! The butter chicken was really good, it reminded me of a comfort meal. I’ve always been very hesitant to try Indian food because I thought it was all very spicy and unfortunately I have a terrible spice tolerance. It was not spicy at all! My husband on the other hand can eat as spicy as you can make it and he opted for the spiciest. He absolutely loved his meal, and was so happy that we stopped in here. He was even happier that we took home leftovers! Overall the servers were extremely attentive- our waters never got empty. Everyone was super polite and friendly, I was simply blown away by the customer service and attentiveness. It was such a great experience for it being my first time! I would win 100% come back, and now I know I love Indian food!

Tikka Indian Restaurant offers a welcoming atmosphere with beautifully presented lunch combos that immediately set the tone for a great meal. Everything arrived well-paced, and the presentation was impressive.
We started with the fried onions appetizer, which was generous enough for six people to share comfortably. The herbed dipping sauce was uniquely flavored and paired perfectly with them.
Everyone at our table ordered something different, and every single dish was delicious. The food was spiced to perfection, with clear options for mild, medium, or hot—so everyone could order exactly to their comfort level. I cleaned my plate completely and will absolutely be returning.
Pro tip: This place is always busy, so call at least 30 minutes ahead before arriving.
Highly recommended for both flavor and consistency.
