Food was excellent and nice to have a casual Indian dining option. As advertised and as you’d expect. Medium was actually too spicy! Service was a little rude but whatever.

Tika Masla Naan Taco was spicy and delicious. The chicken was tender, pineapple and mango was sweet. I got two, and had to take one to go, so filling. Delicious!! Will come back next time I'm in town.

I think this has become my favorite place to eat at in Rock Hill. They have taken caution with my food allergy every time I have eaten here. The flavor of the curry’s are so delicious. The Butter Masala is a favorite.

The picture doesn’t do justice. My wife and I always walk by this place and say we need to stop in, so we finally did. We got the chicken tikka wrap and it definitely did not disappoint. I actually exceeded our expectations. So much flavor inside and their sauce is on point! We thought we were just going to get something more simple but this was absolutely delicious. And perfect to grab and go. They have lots of variety of unique menu items like tikka pizza, for one example that we want to try. We will definitely be back.

I visited this Indian restaurant for the first time, and it was a great experience! When I placed my order, they asked if I wanted my food spicy. I said, “Just a little spicy,” but their version of “a little” turned out to be quite spicy for me—so be careful if you’re not used to heat! The food was delicious, full of rich flavors and authentic spices. The only small downside for me was that the rice seemed slightly overcooked, but that’s just a personal preference. It didn’t take away from the overall enjoyment of the meal. One thing I absolutely must mention—the mango lassi. It was absolutely divine! Creamy, refreshing, and the perfect balance of sweetness. If you visit this place, I highly recommend trying it. The service was excellent—the staff was friendly and welcoming. My food arrived quickly, and the portion size was generous. Overall, it’s a fantastic place, and I’d definitely come back!

The goan vindaloo was just the right amount of spice as I love a little kick, and the garlic naan was crispy and light. My daughter enjoyed her spicy curry chicken as well. The restaurant is nicely decorated, and everything was clean and well kept. Excellent experience, and I will definitely be back!

We were visiting CLT. We happened to see Tikka Shack during our visit. We had the spicy chicken kebab bowl with half rice and half salad. The salad was very fresh and spicy (Indian) chicken on a flavorful rice. We love spicy food so Saketh suggested to try the Tandoori Chicken Pizza. It was delicious. On the whole a neatly maintained place, calm and quiet. Friendly staff. Saketh was very friendly suggesting half rice and half salad and the Tandoori Chicken Pizza. Overall very good experience, love this place.
