Nick's Tikkas And Tacos (Restaurant & Bar) Mexican North Indian Fusion — Restaurant in Kuala Lumpur

I have been to this restaurant several times when I have been staying at the Holiday Inn on the same property. I wish that either the wait person or the manager or the hotel had told me that there is a 10% discount for guests staying at the hotel. It would have saved me money and I probably would have eaten there more often. I believe that on my recent trip to KL, I had mentioned that. The food is very good, the owner/manager is hospital and the male wait person is really friendly. Problem.......after discovering the discount by searching for other information in the hotel booklet, I asked the female wait person on the way in if there was a discount for hotel guests. She must have been familiar with it because without hesitation she said yes. That was great. I was aware that it applies to food and not alcohol. When she presented me with the bill......there was no discount whatsoever on the food. She expected me to just pay it. Nope! I brought it to her attention and she made the change. The owner/manager was not far away. Another time which was either the next night or a couple of nights later I went back. At the next table there was a child who was being loud. I decided to change tables. The same wait person saw me change tables and was clearly angry. Her anger when I was seated at the new table was visible and I said that instead of eating, I would go elsewhere. I finished my beverage, paid the bill and left. Very, very poor on her part both times.......very poor. I would never, ever go back if...

On the ground floor of the Holiday Inn Express Kuala Lumpur City Center. Cash or credit cards accepted.

I ate here twice just to test both sides of the menu. I suggest you opt for pizza instead of Indian or Mexican food. They were out of the grilled squid but I had the chicken nachos. The salsa was more of a BBQ-based sauce and the guacamole was mealy and mostly tasteless. I know corn is a big thing here but I still don't think it belongs on nachos. Chips were thin but crunchy and the chicken was dry.

I opted for the mutton biryani and garlic naan the next time. The naan is very thin and at times crispy, almost like a matza cracker or tortilla. It was tasty but not necessarily overly garlic-y. I'm used to naan being thicker and more pliable, but this was adequate for eating with the biryani. The biryani was spicy but the rice was a bit on the dry side. The mutton was a little juicier and there was a good amount of it.

I also tried the margherita pizza. Large, somewhat thick slices of tomatoes under the melted mozzarella cheese and the crust was pleasantly crisp. The sauce was a bit on the sweet side and may have been similar to the salsa with a BBQ-y taste. It was good enough that I'd be curious to try one of their other pizza flavors.

Staff have always been friendly and the restaurant itself is a very pleasant place. It's very convenient if you're staying at the Holiday Inn Express and need an option for...
