The Customer Service is amazing in the store. The food is very reasonable in price for the beautiful proportions they give. They are big on customer satisfaction too.

This is a modern casual Indian food kitchen that serves up some great food. We ordered the chicken tikka masala and it was creamy, rich, and loaded with spices. The masala was amazing, beyond my expectations. The medium spice level was quite mild, and so most eaters can probably go for the hot. The garlic naan was also spot on. Very light and fluffy. Could have used a bit more garlic. What a great place to get some quality food at an affordable price (and not have to wait so long). You'll want to add this restaurant to your list in the Heights.

Love Tarka!!!! Super fast food, Indian style. Pakoras are my favorite. Tarka Daal is really good with the basmati rice. Beyond Keema is a best seller for all my plant based lovers. Mango Lassi is also delish & yes they have a vegan kind. Garlic naan is always super warm & the pav is like a vegan roll super yummy! Reasonably priced & great portions. Staff are always really helpful and knowledgeable about what to order. Lots of seating options cafe style.

Delicious. Ordered a pick up during the week to cover lunch + dinner plus next day lunch and it was a fairly quick and easy.. Staff was nice. Ordered garlic naan, vegetable samosas, chicken tikki masala, chicken biryani and mango lassi. Garlic naan - good portion, for me personally not garlicky enough Vegetable samosas- good and crispy, 2 large samosas filled with potatoes and peas. The seasoning was on point. The dipping sauce paired well. (You can also eat alone bc it is seasoned so well) Chicken tikki masala - came with a small white rice, the masala was delicious. (I also used it as a dipping sauce for the naan), there was a good portion of chicken and it went well with the rice. Chicken biryani - just enough of spice to make me happy, tender chunks of chicken mixed with deliciously made rice. I love biryani and their version was pretty good Mango lassi - in heaven, never had one and this was a great first time! I tried not to drink so much of it in the car ride home but it was soooooo delicious Def in my list of quick food spots by the house. The price was reasonable. Total with everything was $37.78. It adds a different option other than my normal Chinese or Vietnamese choices or the fast food options. Def will order in the future.

When I'm in the mood for Indian food in Houston and I want to eat somewhere that's fresh and hot food, this is my go to for the heights are

Their naan bread is also very good , and their somosas!!! Definitely give them a try yall! ;) Level 3 is a good heat level. Thank you Tarka! For keeping it spicy!! :)) -Santangelo Balli Gonzales

Please come here. You will not be disappointed. This place is an "order at the counter place", it's not fancy, but the food will surely make up for all that. The owners have it right: focus on good food at a good price and this is exactly what they have achieved. I went with a colleague here for lunch and he's from India. Even he said the flavors were very authentic Indian. I ordered the hottest tikka masala, it's wasn't hot up to my standards, but I eat really spicy. Overall, yes, please come here to eat. I will definitely visit this place again when I'm in the area.

We ordered matter paneer, channa masala and vegetable pakoras! Those are very good and very pleasant! I'd love to try more Indian foods there!! :) Keep up the good business there! :) Vegetarian friendly place! :) Good service and love it! Come and enjoy Cheers I
