Yes I wish there was better Indian food in the Heights but this will do. Consistent and tasty. Service isn’t great, but it’s good enough for takeout. No atmosphere to the restaurant so I can’t imagine it would be fun to eat in.

I first tried Tarka in Austin. Now I'm in Houston and it is remarkable. Please build in Dallas!!!! Ordered Chicken salad curry, green salad and samosas. Delicious!!

We ordered pickup, and the smell in the restaurant was intoxicating. Everyone in the office ordered and we all agreed that the food is Delicious!!! One complaint that the extra hot was not really spicy but overall the food was amazing and will totally order from here again! I totally recommend the coconut curry.

We love this place. The food is delicious and staff are super friendly. You also can get point over time for free appetizers, etc. once we ordered medium spicy and it turned out too hot for us, they came and very nicely replaced our food with milk spicy. Super nice! Definitely recommend here.

There's heavy road construction near restaurant as of May 2023, be aware it may be difficult to get to this place. Quick and good Indian food for weekday nights. The food is decent, with great vegetarian options. The Samosa Chaat is a must-have!!

I hadn’t had Indian food in years so when my friend suggested this place for a lunch date, I was thrilled. Everything was really tasty and filling. Overall I had a really good experience and would visit again. I originally ordered my food Togo so that it would already be boxed up for when I left but then I remembered that I needed pictures for a review lol. I would definitely come back, the service was fast and the food tasted fresh. I got medium spicy but next time I would try hot because it was not spicy at all. The mango lemonade was delicious and the garlic naan wasss sooo good !

Stumbled across this restaurant while hungry and so happy to give it a try. Great Indian food fast. Reasonably priced. Bright cheerful environment with ethnic background music. I ordered the chicken Biryanis and chicken Tikka Masala. Both came out piping hot full of favor. You can add the amount of heat level as you desire. “Hot” gives a serious kick…. And I like spicy. Had me sweating and wiping my forehead. 😆 But so good. I hope more locations are coming to Houston and suburbs.

Some of the best Indian food outside of the Hillcroft area! They were super fast fresh and friendly, definitely looking to come back and try more dishes. We got the coconut curry with chicken and and the chicken kabobs plus u can’t forget the bread which we tried the naan and roti. The curry was well balanced the chicken kabobs were moist. Would definitely recommend this place!
