Chicken Tikka Masala Express *Halal* — Restaurant in Loma Linda

I usually don't review restaurants, regardless of a positive or negative experience. But today was horrible. I walked around lunch time and the guy working stopped helping the customer in front of me and said "what do you want to order". I was kinda taken aback and just automatically said "um, the tikka masala one" and pointed to the first item on the "menu". The "menu" and no numbers and poorly written descriptions. He said, "number one?" I said "ok, I guess but there are no numbers". He continued to help the customer in front of me. When the customer in front of me went to pay for their meal with a $50 bill, he said, "I don't have change". The employee gave the customer the food for free and said "pay me next time". Next it was my turn. He dishes up my lunch, the entire time muttering under his breath and shaking his head and not wearing any type of gloves. After he put the rice and chicken tikka masala in the container, he went to the back and with his bare hands grabbed a frozen garlic naan and put it in the microwave. Retrieved said naan with bare hands and put it in a paper bag. I had cash and asked if they took cash and he reluctantly took my money and retrieved change from an apron hanging on the wall. I took my food and left. Food was flavorless and not hot. I kept looking around for a camera crew to pop out and tell me this was all a skit but sadly..no. Never...

I ran across this place randomly while I was in the area for work 🤯. The location is on the corner lot, and the entrance faces the street 📍. It's connected to a couple of other restaurants too 🍴. They have five different combos to choose from 🤔. The son of the owner was extremely friendly and helpful 😊. It's a family-owned business; the location is older, but it's clean with an A rating 🧹. Keep in mind that the food you'll be getting, based on the price, is overall good 👌. It's not a fancy place, but it's simple and fast for the price you pay 💸. Temper your expectations 🙏. The pricing is absolutely phenomenal; I paid $7.00 for Chicken Tikka Masala and received garlic naan also 🍛. It is extremely affordable, and I will 100% be going back regularly 👍. The flavors were great 👌. The portions aren't huge, but they're fair 🤝. If you want more,...
