Tadka 96 | Halal Indian Fusion Restaurant

We tried Tadka 96 and really liked it. I had the chicken tikka masala and my husband had the butter chicken, both were flavorful and came with basmati rice and naan. I like that you can pick your spice level, which makes a big difference. I also got a plain lassi, and it was really good and perfect for cooling down if you like your food a little spicy. The menu is simple, but it works. My only request would be to add a classic chicken curry someday. Overall, a solid and satisfying Indian spot.

We were traveling to Houston from Galveston and stopped in League City to eat at Tadka 96 Indian Restaurant, and the food was absolutely amazing. We ordered butter chicken, chicken kadai, chicken biryani, and daal tadka, and everything had excellent flavor and tasted authentic. The food was truly delicious. When we asked why the restaurant is named Tadka 96, the owner shared the beautiful story behind the name related to her and her husband, which made the experience even more special. The staff was very nice and welcoming. We loved the food and will definitely come back again. Highly recommended!

A Hidden Gem Worth the Drive Every now and then, you come across a place that feels like a well-kept secret — this is one of them. Tucked away off highway 96 in League City, this Indian restaurant serves some of the most soulful, home-style food I’ve ever had. There’s no flashy signage, no gimmicks — just the comforting aroma of fresh ingredients and the kind of care you can taste in every bite. The menu is small and focused, and the Tikka Masala is on another level. There’s nowhere else like it around. It feels more like being welcomed into someone’s kitchen than dining out. Worth every mile, and then some.

How have I not been to TADKA 96 before today?! The food was AMAZING!!! We ordered the tadka fries, chicken kadai, loaded chicken fries, and sides of the garlic naan. I added aloo (potatoes) to the kadai. Every dish was bursting with flavor! The kadai was savory, bold, and spicy. I absolutely will be going back here. Also, they were so kind!!! I asked for recommendations for my next visit and they said to try the biryani (Saturday and Sunday only), butter chicken, and shrimp curry. Highly recommend!!!! Please support this gem of a restaurant!
