If there’s one product of ours that we can’t stop talking about, it is our chicken tikka masala.
There’s something so comforting about the first bite of Chicken Tikka Masala that makes people pause. The smoky flavor of grilled chicken, the creamy tomato gravy with just the right kick, and the lip-tickling spices, it’s a dish that doesn’t just satisfy hunger. It always leaves you wanting more.

At Greenhaus Eatery, we’ve seen time and again, how this one dish becomes the centerpiece of every celebration. From wedding receptions to birthday parties and cozy family dinners, our Chicken Tikka Masala has quietly earned a reputation for stealing the show. And we wouldn’t have it any other way.
A Dish That Tells a Story
Chicken Tikka Masala is way beyond a food product. It’s a journey from the streets of Punjab, where the tikka was born, to kitchens around the world, where chefs reimagined it with a rich, velvety gravy.
At Greenhaus, we stay rooted in tradition. Our chicken is marinated for over 24 hours in yogurt, spices, and citrus. It’s then roasted in a clay tandoor for that irresistible char. The gravy? A delicate balance of fresh tomatoes, cream, kasuri methi, and our secret spice blend, simmered slowly, with care. We know this one’s mouthwatering.
We serve it with the same love whether it’s for our daily diners or part of our full catering service. Because we know this dish deserves no shortcuts.
The Star of Every Table
In our years of catering Indian food across San Diego, there’s one constant: people ask for chicken tikka masala. Again and again. Whether it’s a wedding for 200 guests or an intimate birthday catering for 20, this dish delivers every single time.
Why does it work so well?
It pairs beautifully with naan, rice, and even salads.
It suits all spice preferences.
