What makes Tikka Drive different from other Indian restaurants?

We're Arizona's first drive-thru Indian restaurant—serving handcrafted, traditional family recipes in minutes.

Where are you located?

80 W Warner Rd, Chandler, AZ 85225. More locations coming soon—follow us on Instagram @TikkaDrive for updates!

Do you use seed oils?

No. We use ghee in all of our dishes other than our vegan dish where we use avocado oil.

Do you use artificial food coloring?

No — and that's something we're proud of. Most Indian restaurants rely on artificial food dyes (like Red 40 and Yellow 5) to make dishes like tikka masala, butter chicken, and mango lassi look brighter.

Do you have indoor seating?

Yes! We have seating for about 50 guests. Dine in, enjoy your meal, and relax with a cold Indian beer as well.

Yes. You can call us, but the best way is to order through our website and swing by for a quick pickup.

Do you offer delivery?

Yes! We're on Uber Eats, DoorDash, and Grubhub, so you can get Tikka Drive brought right to your door.

How long does it take to get my food?

Most orders are ready in under 5 minutes—fresh, fast, and flavorful.

Is everything really made from scratch?

Yes! No freezers. No microwaves. No shortcuts. Every dish is made fresh in small hourly batches using real ingredients, traditional methods, and family recipes from Punjab.

Can I customize the spice level of my dish?

Yes! Absolutely. Every main dish is available from Level 1 (Mild) to Level 5 (Authentic Hot).

Is your food kid-friendly?

Definitely. Level 1 (Mild) is gentle for kids, and they'll love our naan and rice.

Do you offer vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free options?

Definitely. Vegetarian: Paneer Tikka Masala, Chana Masala, Plain Naan, Garlic Naan, Raita, Rice. Vegan: Chana Masala. Gluten-Free: All entrees (except naan).

Do your dishes contain nuts?

Only our Chicken Korma contains cashews and coconut. The rest of our menu is nut-free. Although we keep nuts separate from other foods, we cannot guarantee against cross-contamination.

Do you have dairy-free options?

Yes! Our Chicken Curry and Chana Masala are dairy-free. Let us know about your allergy and we'll take extra care with your meal.

Do you serve halal meat?

Yes, all our meat is certified halal. We take pride in offering food that respects your dietary and cultural values—without compromising on flavor.

Do you serve alcohol?

Yes! We offer a selection of Indian beers for dine-in guests.

Do you offer catering?

Yes! We do. These packages are perfect for office lunches, parties, or events. Email us at catering@tikkadrive.com for custom packages.

Do you have gift cards?

Yes! Gift cards are available in-store and online—perfect for birthdays or sharing your favorite flavors.

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept all major credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and cash.
