There a two Indian restaurants of Denver that everyone goes HAM for, ifykyk.
Tikka and Grill is one of those, and they really did live up to my expectations. This is a second location that they just opened up, and it's a great space with a bar and plenty of seating. Before I get into the food I have to say that the service was amazing! My party of three stayed for an hour chit chatting after we paid our bill, and our server welcomed us to stay as long as we'd like since they weren't busy, and even filled up our waters while we sat (catching up with an old friend, don't judge!)
Started out with three types of naan (garlic, date, and jalapeño cheddar). I loved their variety of options, they had about six types to choose from! I will say that the only reason I'm holding back on five stars is because the naan was a little stiff for me, we ordered so much (went home with it don't worry) but it was a bit hard to scoop our meals with. We also ordered samosas as an appetizer and those were the bomb dot com. The dough was like nothing I'd had before, pillowy yet crispy? Incredible.
For curries we ordered the sweet potato curry, jalfrezi, and chicken madras. All of them were perfect in our opinions, and we couldn't have asked for more. The sweet potato was a crowd favorite, and so unexpected! With our curries came turmeric rice - fluffy and kept great with leftovers! Last thing on our list was the aloo gobi -- I can't even describe the spices but they were perfect. I've been on a cauliflower kick lately, and there's just took the top of my list.
It's no question why Tikka and Grill is a favorite of so many! Incredible service, food, and location!
