Cooked Fresh, Spiced Right

Urban Tikka started with a simple idea: serve real Indian food to the Austin community without cutting corners. We cook both North Indian and South Indian dishes using traditional recipes, and we grind our spices in-house so every plate carries the flavor it should. Our sauces, breads, and desserts are made from scratch, and we shop the local farmers' markets so the ingredients that reach your table are as fresh as we can find them. Our menu is built around the dishes people keep coming back for. We make chicken curry with a rich, slow-cooked gravy, and we also serve goat, lamb, and egg curries for anyone who wants something heartier. If you like a little heat, our chili chicken has the punch you are looking for, and our tandoori chicken comes straight from the traditional tandoor oven with that smoky char you cannot fake. We pull warm naan from the same oven, and our lunch combos give you a full, satisfying plate at a fair price. We cook every spice level, from mild to genuinely hot, so tell us how you like it, and we will match it. If you have a food allergy, let us know in advance, and we will do our best to accommodate you. We also keep student discounts going for the folks studying nearby, because good food should not break the bank. Beyond the dining room, we cater private events, corporate gatherings, and parties with custom menus and large-group orders, and we deliver lunch to Manor. Whether you are grabbing a quick weekday lunch box, sharing a plate of samosas and vegetarian cutlets, or finishing with gulab jamun and a cup of chai, we want you to leave full and happy.
