Best Paneer Tikka Masala in Okotoks

(88 reviews)

Vegetarian guests at The Social Kabob always come back for Paneer Tikka Masala. Cubes of fresh house-style paneer (Indian cottage cheese) are marinated in yogurt and spices, fired in the tandoor until lightly charred, then folded into our signature creamy tomato masala. Rich, satisfying and entirely meat-free — the vegetarian curry that converts even confirmed carnivores.

Paneer Tikka Masala at The Social Kabob in Okotoks — chargrilled Indian cottage cheese cubes simmered in a creamy spiced tomato curry

About Our Paneer Tikka Masala

At The Social Kabob in Okotoks, we take pride in serving the most authentic Paneer Tikka Masala in the Foothills region. Our kitchen uses traditional East Indian cooking methods passed down through generations, combined with the freshest ingredients available.

Voted Okotoks' Best Restaurant 2024 by readers of the Western Wheel, we are a family-owned restaurant founded by Amit Kumar with partners Jagdish Johal and Sachin Pajjii. Every dish is prepared with personal care so that locals across Okotoks — and our friends in High River, Cimarron, Drake Landing, Westmount and surrounding communities — can enjoy authentic Indian flavour without driving into Calgary.

Why Our Paneer Tikka Masala Stands Out

We use fresh paneer with the right firmness so it holds its shape on the skewer and absorbs the marinade. The masala base is the same one we use for our Chicken Tikka Masala — cooked-down tomatoes, cashew paste, kasuri methi and garam masala — so the flavour profile is every bit as deep and complex.

"The best Indian food in Okotoks. Before discovering this place I was having to travel into Calgary to find a decent curry — no need now. Reasonably priced too."

"This is an elevated version of what I would expect if I went to a home in India for an authentic meal! The food was incredibly good, came out fast, the service was great and prices are very reasonable. We will definitely be back."
