“ Both taco options were amazing!!! My husband and I are definitely going to be coming back!! ”
“ This curry was delicious, loved the flavors. Technically there is seating where the park. Plus there are a few other food options around. Give this place a try if you like curry. Lots of options which I had the stomach to try it all. ”
“ First time eating here and really impressed with the burger. We got a couple of smash burger without the green Chile and a couple with green Chile. I definitely did not expect the amount of meat on the burger. It was a pleasant surprise! Their fries were flavorful and crisp. They give you a decent amount of green chili. Everything was tasty, even better than a lot of the sit down burger joint. Definitely a must try. Staff were nice too. Keep up the wonderful work!!! Can’t wait to try your other dishes! ”
“ I was traveling through albuquerque and found this place when I was searching for halal restaurant on google! Excellent place, excellent staff, excellent service, & great ambiance!

I would definitely come again whenever I can and I would definitely recommend people! We ate there and had different item in to go but everything was excellent! Hats off guys keep up the good work (Tikka Spice Team) Good Job!!! ”
“ 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 ”
“ Love the chicken makhni bowl !! Friendly staff and always delicious! The duke city smash burger is also always delicious and super filling. Definitely recommend visiting Tikka Spice for delicious food and great service ”
“ Everything served by Tikka Spice is phenomenal, but my favorite is the Duke City Smashburger; perfectly smashed patties with crispy edges, generous green chile that is the perfect spice level, for a burger. I can see why they win awards for these burgers! One of, if not the best food truck in Albuquerque. Their locations in 505 Food Hall (Kukri and Stackers) are amazing as well. ”
“ Every time I come here is tastes amazing! Today my eyes were definitely too big for my stomach and my tummy is way too full but it was so worth it! I got the vegetable samosas, tikka fries, and green chili cheese paratha for about 31. I will have to save the samosas for later because each thing was big enough to be a meal itself and I can't fit in anymore. ”
