Reviews of Taj India - Whangaparaoa
J. D.Big Tikka is consistently high quality and in my opinion is one of the top two restaurants on the coast. It is hands down the best Indian restaurant on the coast.
Our faves are the Pahadi Palak Paneer (often a Saagwala) which we sometimes get paneer and sometimes opt for chicken, the Prawn Malabari (Andaman Jingha Malabari) is soft, juicy and full of flavour and we love the Kurkure Mirchi Aloo as a side. The coconut rice always adds to the meal too.
Would absolutely recommend, and will continue to support during these tough times so it can stay around.
Keep it up Big Tikka team.
A.Very delicious! Loved all the different curries we got to try, samosas and the chilli cheese naan bread 🔥🥰
M. K.Good food. service lacked a bit. Staff forgot my order but overall found a nice Indian restaurant near my place. Beef curry was 🤘. Forgot the pic but will make up next time.
R. F.The most legendary curry spot I have ever been to. The atmosphere and warm welcoming has us coming back almost every week. Thank you guys for the consistently amazing experience.
S. S.I had dinner at this beautiful restaurant and food was just so amazing. I had the best garlic naan and chicken curry. The fish dish in the starter was 😋. Enjoyed the vive and hospitality. Definitely going back again. 😃 I was so hungry, forgot to take any picture 😂
E. S.7 of us went for dinner and the place out done itself on our expectations, it was a consensus that was the best Indian we've tasted....superb
C. C.Great Food & Great Service. I ordered 2 Take away curries. Spinach Paneer Curry and Chicken tikka masala. Very Freshly cooked and beautiful taste!! Absolutly will go back :) The indian guy at the front was very friendly and helpful! Thanks!
R. R.Great food. Probably one of the best Indian food in North Auckland. Great service too.
K. S.Fantastic food and exceptional customer service ! The team were so welcoming and accommodating, thanks Big Tikka team ❤️🐾❤️
m. m.One of the best Indian meals we’ve had. They are now our go to. Love their spicy potatoes and the Tikka masala is sooo good. Thanks
A.It was amazing experience try BIG TIKKA food, it’s 50min good drive from CBD. Foods are so comforting and delicious. MUST TRY.☺️
Also the ambiance is beautiful and rich.
M. E.Best Indian food ever!
While they didn’t seem to be the fastest cooks (we waited maybe 40min on a not very busy night) OH MY GOODNESS it was worth the wait!
Amazing flavours and spices. My tastebuds went to heaven.
We live nearby and will DEFIANTLY eat here again.
A. K.Nice restaurant. Surprised to see autorikshaw here in NZ. Quality of the curry was moderate. It was taste more of like a tomato sauce.
K. C.Good location and great service. Food was good. Enjoyed the dinner.
A.Good Indian food in Whangaparaoa. Great service and ambience.
N. &. C. L.Ordered fish and received beef, they then offered to cook the fish but that would mean us receiving our meals at different times. They initially charged us for the more expensive fish dish until we pointed this out. Then charged us for the beef dish we didn't order - finally gave us a free glass of wine when we asked for some recompense for their mistake.
Very disappointing and won't be returning.
R. M.Without doubt, the best Indian cuisine I have ever tried.
Can’t wait to go back!
Wonderful staff, great service 🙏
K.I highly recommend a visit to Big Tikka, you will be pleasantly surprised. This is by far the best Indian food I've had in Auckland(and I've tried a lot). The food is of great quality with loads of flavor. The presentation is amazing, I've not seen Indian food served like this before- creative, clean and vibrant. The drinks are great, very creative cocktails. The service is friendly, inviting and attentive. Children are welcome, good family friendly environment. The decor and ambience is fabulous. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening here, the food, drinks and service was outstanding. I recommend the Stuffed Cottage Cheese dish on the 'Big Tikkas Faves' menu, the fragrant flavors are magnificent!
h. k.Best Indian food on the coast. Fresh and beautiful flavours, everything I've tasted on the menus is delicious and I can't wait to try the other items.
Customer service is lovely, attentive staff and a really nice atmosphere.
Thank you for an awesome evening. I'm looking forward to eating here again very soon.
T. W. S.We just had a sensational dinner at Big Tikka. Tandoori broccoli was a special that was just about to be taken off but they made an exception for us. It was one the best surprise meals we have had all year. We are happy there is great local indian food.
N. S.Theres a lot of talk about Big Tikka's takeaway serving sizes compared to other indian places but I think the different size shape (round and high compared to flat and rectangle) is fooling people. There portions were great. We ordered two curries and only ended up eating one between two adults. The naan and flavors of food here supercede any other chain indian place.. its certainly not your cheap westernised mall curry and for that we keep going back! So good!
W. C.Great food. Went last week to celebrate one of my friend’s birthday. Great customer service by Dilawar and great ambiance. Would suggest “Kudi Kura”, curry if you like a bit spicy.
L. A.Amazing. Went out for dinner on Friday night. Food and service was splendid. A lovely young lady took our order. She was very polite, and recommended great dishes. Highly suggest this restaurant.
R. C.Thank you for helping to make my husband's birthday such a great occasion. All our guests thoroughly enjoyed their meals. One much- travelled guest said it was the best Indian meal he had enjoyed.
Thank you for letting us take our time as guests arrived and were greeted.
The service was professional and the food was great.
Thanks again.
Caroline
T. a. L. S.Beautifully decorated and well set out restaurant. The staff are friendly and helpful and the food is a good quantity but not excessive. The person serving us gave us advice on which dish would be best for us to try and his advice was spot on. A lovely place to spend an evening.
We have just been back for a birthday visit and the food was amazing. The staff are very friendly and we were made to feel really welcome. They have my wife a lovely birthday treat dessert and we highly recommend it as a place to eat. If you want a mild meal the buttered chicken is perfect it had an amazing flavour but is very mild.
M. D.Probably best curry I've had. Chilli cheese garlic naan was the winner
P. v. L.Just had an amazing salmon dish here. Tastiest salmon ever with a Kingfisher beer. Highly recommend this place. The mango desert was great too. There was something very tasty under the Indian ice cream.
A. S.Disappointed choose to support local and was totally let down by the service we waited over an hour to all get drinks. Still didn't have the food menu and when we did get our food 2 hours later everything at once entrées and mains. The chefs literally saved the night the food was really yummy but being a birthday celebration just wasn't good enough and with the kids also waiting so long. We won't be back.
A. T.Very good food. Tastes amazing and looks beautiful. Would highly recommend however is a little pricey compared to other places but for good quality Indian you can expect to pay this price.
H. K.Great ambience, great food, great service, great price!! One of top 3 Indian restaurants for me.
Z.Great curries, nice decor. Service was attentive, friendly and prompt. Bit on the pricey side, but the food is of a higher quality than most Indian places. I had the goat curry, which was fantastic.
A. F. (.Best Indian food I've had in NZ. Tikka Masala and Rogan Josh were both outstanding dishes. Excellent quality chicken and lamb cooked to perfection. Excellent service too, we'll be back soon.
G. P.Great host. Polite and helpful staff. Amazingly good quality food. We had the Lucknow biriyani - lamb and beef - and the dishes were well presented and extremely tasty. Will visit again.
T. M.Best Indian restaurant I've been to in Auckland by far. The dishes are really prepared individually (not just meat added to pre-made sauce topped with chilis like most other Indian restaurants) and are delicious. The decor is great too. I just wish they deliver further down the peninsula!
b. r.Food and service was above average.
Z.Excellent service, nice staff, amazing food - giant portion we were not able to eat it all even if we were hungry. We definitely recommend to visit this restaurant. :)
P. H.Visited the Big Tikka with my son and his wife while on holiday. Staff and service and food were fantastic, best I`ve had in a long time. we have favourite`s in the UK but this beats them. will definitely be back next time in N.Z.
A.Amazing just right spiciness for Medium Butter chicken. Will get takeaways from here again. And will recommend to family and friends
K. F.Wonderfully decked out restaurant, great, friendly service and the food is top quality.
The prices reflect all these things and so you are paying more than in many Indian restaurants, only by about a fiver for any of the mains but we'll worth treating yourself to.
4.5 out of five 👍
J. R.Genuine Indian food. Authentic curries set in a tastefully decorated restaurant. Flavours were big so if you ask for Indian hot then that's what you will get. Fab dining.
A. A.Best authentic food i have had in a long while and generous with the tender meat unlike some that short change with sauce. Great decor and friendly staff. Will eat in next time.
G. B.Excellent Indian food, fantastic service and a great environment. This is one of the best Indian restaurants in Auckland by far. We won't be going to any others for our Indian fix any longer. Big Tikka is the ONE!
s.True Indian flavours and authentic taste
A. D.We ordered two curries and a naan to pick up. The meal was delicious, so full of flavour. Thank you for a lovely dinner.
G. L.Best Indian I've ever had by far.
Beautiful atmosphere, awesome drinks and the food was not only yummy but looked so good which is hard with curry.
J. K.The food is excellent, generous portions and great prices. The customer service is outstanding..everyone must try it...👍
S. G.Beautiful resteraunt with delicious food. The wait staff were incredibly friendly, prompt and lovely to be served by. Highly recommend
b. b.Highly recommended!
Authentic Indian food with great customer service, curries were delicious and Naan were soft and they melt in mouth ! Must try crispy potatoes !
Must Try!
r.Really amazing food. Service was outstanding. Manager (mandar) is so friendly. Will definitely recommend to our friends and will come again for sure.
J. W.One of the best Indian restaurants we've ever visited! What a great addition to the neighborhood. Do yourself a favour and order the tandoor roasted mushrooms.
R.This was our second visit, the service was very slow even though the place was not that busy, we had to eventually ask for service, the waitress admitted she was new and did not know the menu, the food was OK but for the prices they charge they need to lift their game, The fastest move all night was when I went to the till to pay the bill, he was there in a flash.
P. B.I loved this place! The ambience and environment was fantastic. Food was really good too. Staff extremely helpful. Well done!
C.WOW!! The interior design was jaw dropping, very cultural, alive and colourful. You can wear a turban while dining or take photos at the rickshaw(taxi) . I came in for dinner, they served a poppadum and sauce.
I had the Prawn Malabari , it was the biggest tiger prawn I have ever eaten in New Zealand, it was full of flavour, right amount of heat, a bit of tanginess and it was just delicious with a side of rice and perfect garlic naan.
The Lychee Pan Patta has the perfect amount of sweetness and alcohol, it also had a full lychee as a treat!
As for dessert, I got a Mango Kulfi (ice cream) and the waiter confirmed it's home made! What a way to finish the evening.
This is a Restaurant you can have either casual or fine dining. I'm definitely a fan!
M. S.Good service. Food -generous amount and good flavour. Not the cheapest Indian restaurant but value for money. Liked the decor.
H.Best Indian I've ever had! Highly recommend the butter chicken and chill naan bread. Will definitively be my new local :)
T. E.Best Indian restaurant ever! Authentic, great flavours, it was a wonderful dinner to celebrate my birthday. Thanks guys!

S.(Translated) The most safe butter chicken to eat, tastes good. That fried rice is actually a bit general, not very big, gray and hot.
(Original)
吃的最保险的butter chicken，味道挺好的。那个炒饭，其实有点一般，量不大，灰常辣。
F.(Translated) Auckland is probably the best Indian restaurant to eat.
(Original)
很可能是奥克兰最好吃的印度餐馆了。
