Wow Tikka is a real neighborhood staple! I tried the Desi Loaded Fries and the Burrito, and both were seriously delicious. The fries had just the right amount of seasoning, and the burrito was stuffed with flavorful fillings--they really know how to bring Desi flavors to life.It's a cozy spot with seating both inside and outside, which gives you some flexibility on where to sit. They've got plenty of options to choose from. The service was friendly and welcoming, which added to the whole experience. Definitely a spot to hit up if you're in the mood for something tasty and filling!

I feel like it's so hard to find casual Indian food and this restaurant offers a modern take on fast Indian food!This restaurant is in the Kenmore/Fenway area and when you enter, there's a chipotle-esque style area where you can make your own bowl or wrap. There's other menu items on top of that too! The service is quick and effienct.For food, we got a bowl, naan pizza, vada pan (spiced potato fritter sandwich), samosas.The bowl has so many customizable options so it's perfect for someone who is unsure what to get. I got it with paneer and lamb, different veggies and sauces, and it was delish! The flavors kinda got mixed together too much where it was hard to distinguish but overall good.Naan pizza was surprisingly good- crisp dough, good chicken, but still wish there was a bit more flavor.Vada pan was unlike anything I've had. I think it would've been better on its own and I think they went overkill with the spice. the actual patty was flavorful and aromatic.

Wow Tikka, nestled in Boston's vibrant Fenway area at 84 Peterborough St, offers a delightful twist on traditional Indian cuisine with its quick and casual dining setup. This spot stands out for its innovative approach to Indian food, making it both accessible and fun, perfect for a meal on the go. The standout dish during my visit was the naan kati roll filled with chicken. It was bursting with flavors, showcasing a generous mix of spices and ingredients all tightly packed into a soft naan rollup. The fusion of flavors and textures makes this dish a must-try for anyone craving a quick yet satisfying meal.Accompanying the meal was their mango lassi, which offered a sweet and creamy respite from the spiced fare. The naan pizza, another fusion creation, combined the comforting familiarity of pizza with the bold spices of Indian cuisine, creating an enjoyable and unique eating experience. Wow Tikka's model of serving allows for a personalized dining experience, differentiating it from the typical family-style service found in many Indian restaurants. Their website aptly describes the setup as "Indian food made easy and fun," and my experience echoed this sentiment. The affordability is another significant draw, with prices like $10 for a hearty bowl and $8 for a naan rollup kati offering great value. While the ambiance is simple, with a straightforward, no-frills setting reflecting its grab-and-go nature (rated 5/10), it's the food quality and prices that truly shine here, with ratings of 8/10 and 9/10 respectively. The only drawback is their limited delivery options, which unfortunately don't extend outside Boston--a minor inconvenience for those living farther away who are eager to enjoy what Wow Tikka has to offer. Overall, if you're in the Fenway area and looking for delicious, budget-friendly Indian meals with a creative twist, Wow Tikka is definitely worth a visit.

A quick to go casual place for Indian Cuisine mixed in with a few restaurants in the Fens. Wow Tikka is great for something quick and easy. I stopped on by one of the nicest and coolest days this summer and even ate outside. Literally the perfect day! Now back to the food. I tried the build a bowl with basmati rice and paneer and lamb kofta which was yummy. My friend got the chicken tikka which was two chicken legs and was $10 which felt kind of pricey but idk man. Not too busy because it was a smaller spot however a ton of to go orders coming in and out. It's a nice little spot to give the fens/fenway area a bit more options apart from all the burgers, pizza and seafood.What i gotRice bowl with paneer and lamb koftaChicken tikkaMango Lasso$Food 7Atmosphere 6Service 6

For fast casual Indian food, this is the place to go! So many options and such a reasonable price for a large quantity of flavorful food. Limited seating inside, but quite a bit outside if the weather is nice out. Will totally return here when I'm in the Fenway area!

If I have to think of 1 thing I don't like about Wow!! Tikka, it would be the distance. I'm sad that this place is not right next door to me. Tucked in a residential area near Fenway Park is this gem! I love how you can pick and choose your base, proteins, sauces, and toppings. It is quick, casual, and super yummy. Those meatballs are addictive but the entire meal itself is beyond fulfilling. Definitely a must visit!

Food was ok. It's kind of a chipotle meets Indian restaurant. This makes any authenticity difficult to maintain, BUT allows for some unique flavor combinations. Overall I liked this part of the experience. The premade options (samosas) were very overcooked, oily and dry. Maybe avoid these. Ambiance was ok. Its pretty small on the inside and the music the staff was playing ...wasn't my favorite and was quite loud.

The food at Wow Tikka is delicious. The chicken is cooked to perfection and the vindaloo sauce is to die for. There's so many choices when it comes to make your own bowl. It's a very allergy friendly environment, all menu items containing allergens are labeled. The workers are so friendly and the service is so quick! Great choice when you need a quick bite.

On my first visit to Wow Tikka, a fast-casual spot for some Indian cravings with friends, we tried a few items:Desi Loaded Fries (4/5): The fries were well-seasoned, making them a great snacking side.Chicken Tikka (2/5): Unfortunately, the chicken tikka was a bit of a letdown with its small portion and dry texture.Bowl (3/5): The bowl was okay overall. The ingredients were extremely fresh. Although the meat was dry, the sauce added much more flavor. Overall, the bowl is a decent choice for a quick and budget-friendly meal. Despite a little blip where our order got forgotten, the server made up for it with some complimentary samosas, which was a nice gesture. The service, apart from that slip, was extremely friendly. The restaurant, though small, had enough seating for us. Considering the reasonable prices, the food wasn't bad!

This is a small cozy place with great food. I was looking for something light but Indian and came across this place. It's a mix of chipotle kind of construct ( made to order bowl or burrito) but also has the regular Indian street food.. the chats and the pavs.I ordered a chicken taco, yeah the Indian version of the popular Mexican dish. Loved the taste and texture. I also had a vada paav with masala chai. Mmm yummy all the way! Loved it and will certainly return next time I am in Boston.
