Basit Gauba’s South Asian–New Mexican mashups—think tikka fries and a green‑chile smashburger—made this truck a local star. Featured in New Mexico Magazine and profiled by the Albuquerque Journal, it remains an essential stop with frequent brewery pop‑ups.

Best meal I’ve had in Duke city. Right outside high and dry brewing. Excellent food and the owner is fantastic. Come give them a little bit of your money and they’ll give you a great meal.

I was not expecting the BEST green chile cheeseburger in Albuquerque to come from an Indian food truck, but these guys nailed it. 10/10 absolutely PERFECT burger. The first bite was pure bliss. All the elements were flawless- the beef was expertly smashed, the green chile was spicy and flavorful, and the CHEESE! the cheese tied it all together. Melty, gooey, creamy. Even the bun was perfect, soft, but not too delicate, warm and just the right amount of chewiness. If you have any love for green chile cheeseburgers, YOU MUST get one from this food truck.

Went there for the 1st time to try their "Duke City Smash Burger" very very good. Perfectly cooked and balance of flavors. I will definitely be back to try it and other menu items. Only downside was no shade over the outdoor tables if you are eating there on a hot day like today was.

Miguel took exceptional care of us and prepared the best burger and fries that have ever graced my lips and appetite. Massive props to him and this truck. If you dont try these burgers and tikka fries you're truly missing out

Absolutely amazing! The flavors were spot on. I got the butter chicken fries and they were beyond amazing. The fries had the perfect crunch to them, the flavors were spot on. Definitely looking forward to going back again.

So I was at a gathering at ex novo brewery and this food truck was outside and I had heard about the fries by a coworker and I had to try them, oh my gosh they were the best fries I’ve ever had. They have some spicy to them but it was perfect for me, even if spicy isn’t your thing you still have to try these fries. My son ordered a kids cheeseburger with fries and he said it was amazing. I want to add that the people making the food and serving you were awesome and polite and thats not normal nowadays in the public so not only was the food amazing the service was amazing as well. You have got to try the food

The service was amazing, they brought the food to the car! Unfortunately, they didn't have the Cali burrito which we were looking forward to, but the smash burger and bollywood to hollywood fries were amazing!

Food was really good. Got the tikka fries and tikka tacos, both were exceptional and full of flavor. Only issue is the QR code didn't work on the board in front of the food truck and the digital menu on the front of the truck was unreadable due to glare. I was directed to just Google the food truck to find a menu instead of just having a paper one on hand. A little inconvenient especially since there was no line. But none the less food was really good and will absolutely eat from this food truck again

Today, the Tikka Spice food truck was in Edgewood, by Tractor Supply. Perfect timing for lunch! I love their qr code menu and ordering system. I ordered the Tikka fries with avocado. Perfect blend of flavors and carbs....lol As I was eating, my mood instantly improved and my soul was happy with the aromas and the crispness of the fries. I was a bit skeptical if the bamboo fork, but let me tell you, it was sturdy. A very pleasant lunch in the middle of a very busy day of errands. Highly recommend!

Food is good; Lot of flavors! Prices are a bit high. Service speed can be spotty. This is a very popular food truck so be prepared to wait. I enjoy their Samosa Chaat...But, to be honest - The best samosa chaat I had in ABD is at Bombay Spice Market. It's incredible.

Absolutely delicious like every other time I've gone! The burgers are amazing. The burrito is awesome and the chicken sandwich is great too. Depends what day it is and what they're serving that day but this place has not once disappointed me!

Okay so the food was like a million stars, but service is ... well.. there is no service lol. The number on their Yelp page is out of service and the one on their confirmation page goes to q voicemail every time you call and they never return your calls. So you can't ask questions and if something goes wrong you have no way to let them know. It kinda sucks too because I like ordering delivery and things do tend to go wrong often when you get food delivered and also people have questions to ask sometimes. There just has to be a human touch to a business like this. I would go back but only if I visit their truck in person. If you guys are wondering about their food, it's absolutely fire

I absolutely LOVE their green chili cheese burger the Duke City Smash. It is my favorite green chili cheeseburger in town. It has two patties, melty and creamy cheese, and the perfect amount of tasty green chili. Who would've thought that such an amazing green chili cheeseburger would come from this particular food truck but it's true and I am in love. The service is always on point from the food truck as well. They are friendly and quick. I highly recommend checking out this food truck the next time you see it. Cheers!

I came in after work today and considered ordering some of their delicious Indian food, but ended up going with a smashburger (comes with double meat, double cheese, green chile, and grilled onions). Since I'm not always in the mood for spicy things, I asked them to leave the green chile off the burger. The cashier said something about the cheese which I didn't quite catch. I should have asked him to repeat himself, because when I got my burger it didn't have any cheese either. At that point I was hungry, so I didn't take it back to the counter. The burger was very good, though I thought it could have used a few more grilled onions. The fries were really good as well. Next time I come here I'll ask for clarification if I order the burger.

So happy they revived their Tikka spice menu in a new location in the Jefferson industrial area. The butter chicken bowl was yummy and the samosas were a good balance of flavors and crunchy on the outside. The sauces were flavorful and complementary. I wanted some extra chicken in the bowl and they were happy to accommodate my request. It's in a hidden location in a dirt parking lot so currently take out only . Hopefully when it's warmer they will have some tables out and improve the ambience.

Pretty ok. The vegetable samosas were delicious with the chutney. Good size, crispy, tasty. Ordered through Uber eats with a promo code, plus buy 1 get 1 free butter chicken. The butter chicken is not your typical butter chicken you'd order from an Indian restaurant. It is a bowl, which is not described in the Uber eats app. It makes it sound like classic butter chicken with rice on the side. Nope. Bowl with rice, lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes. It tasted alright but I was just disappointed Uber eats did not describe it well. If I was a purist I'd probably not like this but it was ok. Not your typical butter chicken, different but good. Overall it was ok, if it weren't for the Uber eats deal and promo code I don't think it'd be worth it. $16 each per bowl on Uber eats. Cheaper on their actual menu which is typical of food delivery services. I do wanna try their more "fusion" dishes like the tacos, burgers, etc. I'd probably give it another chance if it were somewhere I happen to be. Update your Uber eats descriptions.

I went to Tikka Spice on June 22nd, my first experience with them. Today their location was outside Marble Brewery. I had the Tikko fries. Maybe it's in my DNA since I'm half Irish, but man do I love potatoes. This meal is a great twist on covered fries. There's a slightly tangy sauce, some cheese, some greens. And huge portion. Very very tasty, and went well with the Mexican lager from Marble. This is truly comfort food. I couldn't even finish it all. Can't remember when that last happened. Well done Tikka Spice!

We stopped by Tikka Spice the other day, I've never been there. I checked it out on Yelp and after looking at the pictures, I knew I had to drop by and give it a shot. We ordered the kids burger, which is a single patty, the chicken sandwich and a green chile stuffed paratha. If you've never had a paratha, it's like a flaky tortilla that's cooked on a griddle. I ordered it stuffed with green chile and cheese, it was a little greasy but still delicious. The side of curry it came with was great and very spicy, a great combination. The chicken sandwich was very crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The flavor was good, but I wish it was spicier. I'd still order it again. The kid's burger was a good size. It was flavorful and since it's a smash burger, the patty had a nice crisp to it. I'll have to try a double with green chile next time. I watched them make more "authentic" rice dishes, I'm going to have to try one of those next time. I'll definitely be back.

I was super excited to see the Tikka Spice food truck when I was out at High and Dry Brewing since I hadn't had the opportunity to try them yet. What a unique menu! I was torn but ultimately ended up getting the tikka fries. Piles of french fries, green chile queso, chicken and other goodies? Really how could I say no? It was delicious. A bit spicier than I expected but it went perfectly with my cider. I'll definitely keep my eyes open for the next place they're at and really need to give the restaurant a try. So many things on the menu looked so good and the people were just lovely!

I have to give it to them, hands down the best green chili cheeseburger in the state! The fresh soft brioche bun two juicy smash burgers grilled to perfection and American cheese. Sometimes the best things are kept simple and if you are in ABQ visiting you have to give this burger a try. The burger can and has brought foodie tears to my eyes! The interior is really nice and the restaurant is located directly to the right of the salt yard. (The sign is hard to see at first). They do have a food truck as well but be prepared to wait about 20 minutes due to its popularity! Still worth the wait in my opinions Unfortunately the chicken sandwich was a miss... The chicken sandwich uses chicken thighs instead of white meat chicken breast, and had very little Tikka sauce. The result was a very dry chicken sandwich. A few things I would change is to dip the chicken into the tikka gravy and to use a buttermilk brined chicken breast for the chicken. The breading was very good and was very crispy! The sandwich just could use a little more Tikka sauce! Compliments to the chef and I hope to see a dipped Tikka sandwich soon! I will be the first in line to review the much needed upgrade. Thanks for all the love and effort put into the duke city smash burger and I will certainly be back! Worth giving a try for the burger and Tikka fries alone!

Tikka spice is definitely one of the best food trucks in ABQ. I'm glad to see that they are expanding and doing more throughout the city. Everything is full of flavor and the owners are the sweetest people who are putting their love into the food!

I've been cutting back on beef big time recently, for two obvious reasons, my health and the health of the planet. But between you and me, I stopped eating burgers in Burque years ago. For all of our talk of the reign of the green chile cheeseburger, the fact of the matter is that there aren't many great burgers in this town -- straight up. Before I reveal the very best of show, I need to break down the two tiers of my burger expectations: 1. Gourmet burgers: These especially pricey, can't-fit-in-mah-jowls monstrosities should feature and focus on the highest quality beef. Toppings and extras shouldn't dwarf the flavor of whatever grass-fed cow you've been sold. 2. Greasebombs: These are cheaper, the beef's nothin' special, but once your teeth sink in, this should be memorable, glorious, even. I've been a fan of Tikka Spice since they launched a food truck in the midst of The Snap, and The Blip is seeing this brand grow exponentially, with new locations across the city. Randomly, they opened a shop at Salt Yard East, which has been converted into an event center, and the other day I bought myself a Duke City Smash Burger. People, let me testify: best burger in town. Two charred, salt encrusted patties, sauteed onions, melty American cheese, fiery chopped green chile and yeah, a fat fried egg, smooshed betwixt a soft deflatable bun... I was in the corner of the room, all by myself, a pile o' napkins by my side, quietly moaning with each bite. It's not as cheap as it should be -- it ran about 15 bones -- but whatever, you won't forget this meal, and it comes with some crispity fries that you won't finish. GO.

I have to preface this by saying I've experienced some of the most authentic Indian street food growing up, so finding this food truck here in ABQ was a dream come true. This was my first visit and we got the following: A huge chicken makhni (butter chicken) frankie burrito A samosa chaat Mango lassi (!!!!) And a chana masala curry bowl First off this is a ton of food for two people even if the two people are major foodies. The samosa chaat was delectable and I am surely going to dream about it a lot in the future. The samosas were wonderfully crispy and were immersed in the right amount of chana masala and topped with the most amazingly crispy "boondi" with the right hint of tamarind and yogurt. This is a true representation of what samosa chaat is all about. Just truly amazing. I am willing to bet this is the best samosa game in town. The chicken was wonderfully tender but not really my cup of tea. I appreciate how beautifully it was cooked and the huge naan it came with. It was possibly a too big of a dish for me to take on by myself. Thank goodness for the husband. He enjoyed the rest of it very very much. The mango lassi was some of the best we've had as well. Comes very close to homemade ones! It also came in a nice study bottle making it look like a proper drink. The curry bowl was great! The only feedback would be about the raita. While delicious and a great dipping sauce, it wasn't the most authentic version. I really enjoyed their menu and the dishes we had so far. It is wonderful to see a different take on Indian food while still staying pretty loyal to the fundamentals. Looking forward to coming back here again and again to try out the fries I've heard so much about and of course, more of that samosa chaat!

Amazing food. We stopped by their food truck while it was at Civic Plaza for Food Truck Fridays. I'd heard nothing but good things, so my family decided to finally try it. I really can't believe how good it was. First of all, the staff was very genuine and helpful. They suggested some options for my son (who doesn't eat meat). He got the Cali Burrito with egg substitute and loved it. The environment was fun too. My wife and I got the Asada Fries and the Duke City Burger. Both were great, but that burger is on a whole other level. I'm a bit of a burger aficionado and have tried my fair share of food truck options. This is by far the best we've ever had. The presentation was great, and the taste was beyond sensational (like, I'm going to crave this one again). Seriously, seek out this truck...it's beyond worth it!

4.5 stars! Yummy treats from Tikka Spice! Having spent 4 months living, studying abroad and traveling in India as a graduate student many years ago..mi have developed my affinity for Indian food. So, I was very much looking to try their food! I went on a weekday evening at a park on election day, so there weren't too many people lining up or anything. I got myself a butter curry bowl ($12 with mix of chicken and paneer) on a bed of mix of basmati rice and salad..and I think that was a good choice! The meal tasted fresh and didn't feel too heavy at all. If I went for just a bed of rice though..the bowl would have felt too heavy for me for sure. I also got my mango lassi ($5) to try and loved it! It tasted fresh..not too sweet at all and just refreshing! It was a little expensive for the lassi portion they gave out (in a small plastic bottle) but hey..I don't usually order lassi at all...so it was a nice treat for me after all! The staff were also quite friendly, polite and appreciative of their customers. I would love to stop by again..esp when it's a food truck that you can order from outdoor without having to go inside and potentially risk more on catching COVID. P.S. pay by credit card via their payment system and (if you had registered your card with square before?) you also get $5 off coupon in your email for your next meal as well!

What can I say about Tikka Spice that will do it justice? .....as the youngsters would put it.. SLAMMIN' SMACK' DANK AF. I the Tikka chicken fries my man had the chickpea and cheddar fries..omg, spicy, creamy, saucy, messy, crispy, potato-ey and just such a feel good dish. Priced around $14 each dish. We can't stop dreaming about the flavor explosion we experienced. We even tried to recreate something similar at home, but I will have to leave it to the professionala in this instance. If Tikka Spice food truck we're a religion, I would be a shaved head disciple+ You should eat there. (Good for Vegans too btw)

Halal Burgers wow.. it's juicy and delicious .. It's fresh Pattie's and the meat is not frozen. If you like spicy burger then this is absolutely the best burger you have tasted. I'll give these guys five stars for quality of food and service. This is my first trip to New Mexico from California and my first place I found on yelp. Very happy that I came here.. Keep up the good job and don't change anything. You guys rock

First time trying this food truck. They were at Cabezon Park last Thursday night with a few other food trucks. I have never had their entrees before, so I was hoping for a good experience. The menu does not really specify the heat/spiciness of the dishes that they serve. I really wish I had asked first, because I ordered 2 tacos that were the 2 beef kabobs. The tacos looked fantastic, but oh wow, the first bite, it had a huge spice kick to it. I couldn't bring myself to finish it all since it was too spicy for my palate. I may never try anything else, if their entire menu is filled with spicy food like this. But by all means, if you like spicy go try this place.

Food was good enough (though stone cold by the time we received it), but the service was TRASH. We ordered from Tikka Spice for the first time today at Marble Brewery downtown (approximately 3:50pm, Thu 10.12.23) and had the worst service we have ever received in Albuquerque, or anywhere for that matter. Staff was rude and uncommunicative from start to finish. Upon ordering we were directed to verbally state the tip amount rather than enter it on the ipad, and it was all downhill from there. After waiting nearly half an hour for the text that our food was ready, my husband went up to the window to check on our food and was made to feel stupid for waiting so long. He was told that they 'had been waiting for him' and that 'it never takes them longer than ten minutes', as if we should have known. They could literally see where we were sitting from the window. No apologies, just cold food and attitude. I was so upset I ended up asking the server at Marble for the forks we didn't get. She said this isn't the first time she has heard this and offered us another round, no doubt in an effort to counteract the negative impact that experiences like this have had on their business. I hope the owners of Tikka Spice take these negative reviews to heart and take care to hire people who know how to treat others the way they would like to be treated, especially as this food isn't cheap. We don't eat out often and this was such a disappointing experience. Based on the completely indifferent and unpleasant service we received it is unlikely that we will patronize this business again, but very likely that we will let others know about our experience here.

I'm so happy I stopped by Tikka spice! Not only was the food tasty- it's also healthy! The workers are very friendly, helpful and kind. While waiting for my order to be prepared ( with fresh ingredients) I told the employee that I wanted to take a little walk around the neighborhood and enjoy the beautiful fall evening. She asked me if I wanted to be texted when my order was ready. It worked out perfectly! I enjoyed my culinary experience at Tikka Spice!

I know this might seem off-brand, like it's a menu item added for people who are intimidated by food outside the typical American fare, but Tikka Spice has the BEST green chile cheeseburger in Albuquerque. The addition of their spices in the most tender and perfect patties that the cheese melts all the way through is pure perfection. Piled with sautéed onions and green chile on a soft potato type bun. You need to go smash yourself a Smash burger. Obviously everything else is delicious too. Anyone who nails the basics so brilliantly can make anything. Highly recommend the curry as well!

Last Thursday my wife and I went to Cabezon Park in Rio Rancho, where we purchased our supper from Tikka Spice's food truck. I had the Spicy Chicken Tikka Sandwich. Very delicious, although I shouldn't eat this often. My wife had the Original Curry Bowl, which was also delicious and healthier. At this point I'm not sure how often they're at Cabezon Park. I know they're not there every weekday, but they are there on Thursdays. Next Thursday we're thinking of taking the whole family to enjoy lunch or supper. We will definitely return!

I'm normally not a fan of these type of fries, but the chicken and sauces absolutely redeemed it. Even though they were out of lettuce tonight, the spicy chicken tikka sandwich was still amazingly delicious with several layers of flavor and texture, including a generously sized piece of juicy fried chicken. While there was spice in everything, it was not too much at all, just adding another layer to the experience. The tacos had some great flavors and textures as well, but the flour tortillas were a bit overcooked to me. Overall, we had great service, great food, and look forward to when we can enjoy more delicious food from Tikka Spice. I can see why my friends are such huge fans of their food.

One of ABQ's great food trucks. Food is fresh and flavorful, worth trying if you see them at any of our breweries. Order early because they will sell-out

Another way to get out and enjoy a great day. getting a little hungry and deciding to try something different lead us here. We ordered a chicken taco plate for me and an order of Tikka Fries. The chicken was well seasoned and spicy. They use white meat, which is generally dry, however this was moist and flavorful. The tacos were topped with raita sauce, onion, radishes and cilantro. Overall the tacos were excellent. The Tikka Fries were equally good. A much different take on fries. They filled the container and were topped with tikka sauce, chicken tikka, green and red chile sauces, curry queso, garlic cream sauce, pico, scallions, and cilantro. This gave each bite a very different flavor. An excellent and filling lunch. We'll be back for more!

Ordered from the Tikka Spice truck at the food truck court (Louisiana & San Antonio Blvds). They got my order completely wrong. After politely asking them to redo it, replied to with much eye-rolling, huffing & puffing, and general disdain, they remade it. And... it was wrong a 2nd time. Tossed it in the garbage and cut my losses. NEVER AGAIN!

I caught the Tikka Spice truck gang wrangling vittles at Foodie Tuesday in the pocket park north of the Domingo Baca Multigenerational Center. My samosa chaat was exquisitely spicy! My tongue was jumpin' and my lips were burning in the best possible way when I was done eating. Good rich flavor on top of the heat, too. Only gripe I have is that for the $8 price point, I felt the portion was small. Excellent quality, but a bit shy on quantity/value scale. The portion was a couple folded up pieces that fit easily into a small'ish to-go container and didn't fill it half full. I guess next time I will have to step up to the $10-$15 range and get a curry bowl or sandwich for more substantiality. Check out the Tikka Spice truck if you spot to them around town. Really nice spice!

Food Truck where are you? Tikka Spice food was delicious and full of flavor. All the ingredients were fresh, the curry was full of flavor, Naan was soft. I was surprised with the portion size as everything was larger than I expected. The tikka Taco x4 where filled with chicken, cucumber, onion and came with chips and sauce. The curry bowl came with a salad that had onions, cucumbers and tomatoes. Absolutely unexpectedly delicious. Now, I need to save your locations in my calendar. No, I am not stocking you, Ijust must have me some Curry.

My new favorite food truck in Albuquerque! I had to be cautious at first with the menu as I navigate through a newly found garlic intolerance. I talked with the chef and he walked me through the menu and what he can do for me. He communicated that it would take a little longer to prepare my dish to ensure there was no garlic, which I appreciated very much. I went with the Tawa Pulao bowl (rice bowl) with paneer, and my husband got the original curry bowl. WOW! The first thing that came to mind when I took my first bite was FLAVOR. My dish was full of flavor, and the portions size was pretty generous. My overall experience was fantastic. That night on my way home, I told my husband, I think I may have found my new favorite food truck. Tawa Pulao bowl $12.00 add Paneer $3.00 Original Curry Bowl $12.00

I ordered 2 items from this food truck: the Makhni (with chicken and paneer) and an LA Burger. I have to say that you can't go wrong with any of these menu items. I can't speak for the rest, but wouldn't be surprised if they meet or exceed the quality. Let's start with the curry. It is dope. Very flavorful and you should have both the chicken and paneer (because why only one and try the best of both worlds). If you're craving a burger, look no further than the LA burger which consists of a double meat hunk of goodness inside of a brioche bun. The cheese just oozes out of its confines. The fries also speak for themselves with a light drizzle of salt (just the right amount). This burger packs a wallop. Next time, I will try the Spicy Chicken Tikka Sammich which is a high demand item that was sold out. Looking forward to my next fix.

Okay, so we were lucky enough for Tikka Spice to end up so close to us, so down we headed to check out their menu, and WOW! We ordered the Samosa Chaat (vegetarian deep fried deliciousness covered in chutney, cheese, and happiness), and the chicken/paneer curry bowl. On checking out, we were asked if we wanted to get a Mango or Pumpkin Pie Lassi (sweet yogurt drink) and of course we ordered "one of both". All of the food and the drinks were delicious. We arrived somewhat late so they were sold out of a fair amount of their menu (because it's awesome) so we were left excited to find their food truck again and try other things! Oh, and we liked the mango and pumpkin pie lassi so much, we bought 4 more...

Wow, the Indian Fusion is outstanding! I got the Tikka Tacos and wife got the tikka fries! Wow the taste was phenomenal! They were so efficient. I ordered online at Ex Novo Brewery and it said my order would be ready at 6:40 P.M. I walked up at 6:40 and it was there! Wow! Joe was very nice and Joe I will be ordering from you all again! Outstanding taste, presentation, spice and very friendly! Highly recommend and the menu is outstanding! Bravo

I came across this place via Facebook advertising a green chile cheeseburger contest and Tikka spice is one of the finalists. I was glad they were open on a Sunday as that is our most common foodie day's. So they are now doing a brunch at their osuna location but they still serve their full menu. We all ordered the duke city burger or also known as the Albuquerque burger. It's their entry burger in the contest. It's a two patty double smash burger with grilled onions and green chile. I really like the flavor of charred ends on a burger and this one was also seasoned well. The burger is not huge but it is filling. The chile is local bueno brand which I think quite a few places use. It was not hot but it had good flavor. My kid also had and shared her frita fries and I liked them a lot. Spicy sauce, cheese and meat! Not bad. I had a little bit of sticker shock but I guess that's just the way things are these days. 3 duke city burgers, frita fries and 4 sodas ran us $70 before tip. Was the food worth it? Depends I guess because some decent places are getting to be about $20 a person these days. There are a lot of interesting items I would like to try in the future here. The owner was very nice and talked to us a couple of times asking how everything was. Two thumbs up from me.

Imagine this... quality curry from a food truck.. FROM A FOOD TRUCK! Can you believe that? No? Well, here's the scoop! I'm a huuuge fan of fries.. so if there's anything w/ fries in it & topped w/ whatever goodies, sign me up! I've discovered this scrumptious food truck recently & my life has been forever changed! I've gotten the most popular Tikka Zia fries (fries topped w/ chicken, curry, green chile, queso, & more sauce) + the Bollywood to Hollywood fries (fries topped w/ chicken, curry, & more sauce) on my last couple of visits here. Safe to say, I'm not disappointed! When you first open the box after you receive your food, the heavenly smell of the curry, spices, & seasonings tickle your nose which will cause your mouth to water instantly. From then, you'd want to dive right in w/ your fork & devour what's right in front of you! Each bite you take is super flavorful & delicious! I'm also making my way around the menu here as well... next up, the build your own bowl! I heard you can make it however you want & I bet it's still delicious as everything else on the menu! Can't wait to try this out & all their other offerings! Ps: you can also find them on Instagram & they're also at North Domingo Baca Park every Tues from 4-8pm!

Visited first time at High and Dry brewery with my elite perk. I had the lentil curry bowl and green chile mac & cheese egg rolls. Both were amazing and delicious. The curry bowl had a nice spice and all of the toppings complimented each other well. It was very filling and I would get another bowl on my next visit. My friend and I split the green chile mac & cheese egg roll which came with a sauce. I liked the egg rolls more without the sauce so I could taste the green chile.

I gave a try to Tikka Spice while they were parked outside of High and Dry. I ordered the Daal Curry bowl! How exciting to see a vegan option on the menu. The order was ready super quick and I took it home. First the smell was really mouth watering. It was just the right amount of food. The salad was a nice touch. The curry was spicy but not too much. It was full of flavors but at the same time well balanced. I really liked the mint chutney on top it was different and really tasty.

$14..Order Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich, marinated in Tikka Spices and Buttermilk. Topped of with Crisp Green Leaf Lettuce, Juicy Tomatoes, Sweet and Spicy Pickles and our Signature Tikka Sauce all on a Locally Baked Bun, was outstanding however, the side of fries where salty and a little soggy. Never been a follower of food trucks but it seems this family owned business has created a following. Must try!
