Review Tikka Express - Gainesville

Jimmy Rao

The naan is fantastic, soft but with tenacity, crispy at thinner areas, and spongey at thicker areas. The biryani is flavorful. I like lamb but my girlfriend prefers goat. Roasted kebab is good.

It's a decent place for Indian cuisine. Seating is okay. They have options of 1 or 2entrées with rice, 1 samosa and naan(bread). Entrees are different types of curries. Tastes good, decent spice not too much.

We went to this place for lunch on a recommendation and it was great! The food was authentic and delicious, the restaurant was clean, and the service was incredible. We had samosas, gobi Manchurian, and chicken nihari with naan. We couldn’t have been happier with our choices. I will be eating here again frequently.

Chowing down on this places samosas right now. The staff is friendly and the portions are generous. 10/10 would visit again.

Goat Biryani was amazing and so was the Tandoori chicken !! Chicken Tikka Masala and the chicken Korma was also good. Mango lassis were good too.

I was excited to see a place so close to my hotel in Gainesville. The location and parking were great, and the young lady that took my order was very polite. The garlic naan was burnt on the bottom. And I DO MEAN burned, the whole underside was black and inedible, also.. it was buttered, but I tasted zero garlic which was really disappointing. I also ordered mild chicken curry, and that was an EPIC disappointment. The sauce was a tomato sauce, it wasn't just a curry with a heavy helping of tomato sauce.. it tasted like a can tomato sauce and I honestly didn't taste the curry one bit. I will not be returning.

Parking is horrible but the food is so good here I will make the effort when I simple would not visit other places. The flavor of the food is that good. The size is plentiful. You do bus your own table . The buffet is fast, hot and exceptionally flavorful and so is ordering off the menu in the evening. Some of the best Indian food I've had here and you can pick the level of spice you want so all enjoy.

This is probably the best Indian food I've had in Gainesville. The taste is decent and satisfies the craving, but it's almost Indian fast food style in terms of greasiness and how minimalistic the dishes are. We liked the Chicken Tikka Masala, samosas, naan, and gulab jamun. This wouldn't really measure up somewhere where there is more Indian food available, but it'll do for Gainesville.
