Tucked away on Triq l-Abate Rigord in Ta' Xbiex, Sliema, Tikkas has earned a loyal following for its authentic Thai cuisine, drawing praise from discerning diners who return for its daily specials and standout dishes. The restaurant’s commitment to traditional flavours shines through in offerings like the kao ka moo (pork stew on rice) and kao soy, a northern Thai rarity on the island. As Vera put it, "Very authentic Thai dishes. We love to order from the daily special menu."

Diners can enjoy a relaxed atmosphere with views of the marina, complemented by a menu that caters to vegetarians and offers both dine-in and takeaway options. The service is consistently noted for its warmth and efficiency, making it a convenient choice for lunch or dinner, with wheelchair access ensuring inclusivity for all guests.

Tikkas stands out not just for its proximity to ALWAN Grill but for its ability to deliver a taste of Thailand with dishes like the generously portioned King Prawn Pad Thai and perfectly spiced satay, all within a welcoming setting that balances authenticity with Maltese hospitality.
