  Very nice pllace and delicious food.2 years ago I used to go to Tandoori Nights restaurants it was same quality as Tikka Masala but the buffet was for $10 not $18. I don't think that we have 80% Inflation!!!

  Nice and clean restaurant. We ordered chicken tikka masala and tandoori lamb. Both were cooked well. May come again.

  We’ve been here twice for their lunch buffet and it does not disappoint - good selection and fair price. Nice to see several different dishes the second time we came! The Gulab Jamun is so delish. We just walked in, but it was fairly busy on a Saturday at lunch. I would recommend it to anyone and we will be back!

  I didn’t really enjoy their food. I came for the lunch buffet and the price was pretty good for a buffet. However, I thought the food wasn’t very good but it also wasn’t completely bad. I ate way less than I would have otherwise ate if I had enjoyed the food. I don’t feel I got my moneys worth since I wasn’t a big fan of the flavor of many things. They did have a good selection of vegetarian and non-vegetarian options at the bar. The service was pretty good and the staff pretty attentive. I don’t think I would go back again.

  We decided to try Tikka Masala's lunch buffet for the first time today.  The place was located along shop-laden Elm Street in Bethesda so street parking was almost impossible as expected, but there was a public parking building nearby.  The restaurant was neat and nicely spaced inside.  The staff was gracious enough but they mostly seemed serious folks -- they could smile a bit more.  The buffet had the regular Indian spread (butter chicken, samosas, mushroom chilly, yellow daal, goat curry, chicken tikka, basmati, rice pudding, and gulab jamun).  It was enough to fill anyone up.  (But I've been to other buffets that offer more dishes.)  The food quality was good.  The presentation was tidy.  I noticed though that the butter chicken had a ton more gravy than the actual chicken chunks. And most containers weren't full.  Maybe they were being conscientious about wasting food by "exposing" more than necessary on the buffet dishes, but it did give a somewhat unappealing (incomplete) vibe to the spread.  Nevertheless, the place gave a cozy atmosphere and music played at a nice level that you could actually have a good conversation using normal voice levels.  I would recommend this place, and I would go back again one day.
