Check Parking. The entrance can be confusing; use the Churchill Towers parking and ask security for the restaurant.

Choose Outdoors. For the best atmosphere, consider outdoor seating during cooler weather, when the canal-side setting is more comfortable.

The Bottom Line

Chicken Tikka Inn is a Pakistani and Indian restaurant in Business Bay where the menu covers familiar desi comfort food rather than a narrowly focused speciality. Reviews point to chicken tikka, mixed grill platters, biryani, butter chicken and garlic naan as the main reasons to consider a visit. The strongest meals sound generous and good value: one group rated the mixed grill platter and chicken haleem 10/10, while another praised tender mutton biryani and fresh naan.

The Business Bay branch’s setting is a real part of the experience. It has indoor and outdoor seating beside the canal, and diners mention Burj Khalifa and Dubai skyline views. Outdoor tables are most appealing in winter, though parking and the vehicle entrance can be confusing; free parking inside Churchill Towers is mentioned, with security able to direct visitors.

Quality is not reliably consistent. Alongside enthusiastic reports, customers describe stale or dry chicken tikka, overly spicy “non-spicy” biryani, long waits and serious hygiene concerns, including hair in food and suspected food poisoning. Iftar buffet feedback is similarly divided, with some enjoying the canal-side family setting but others finding the spread limited or bland.

Confirm spice levels and allow extra time.
