Excellent food.. Great north Indian taste.. It’s better then any Indian restaurant at Delmar loop. Highly recommend.
It's an OK place if you're desperately craving some North Indian food. However, there are better options out there - even around the Loop area. The service is super-fast and the quantity is sumptuous. However, the dishes, at least, the ones we ordered - a chicken korma and chicken makhani, were rather bland. They weren't bad or anything, rather just "meh". Given the (relatively) high price, I'd give this a miss. Unless of course, if you're dying to get some Indian food.
The atmosphere isn't great but the food is good. The tables are small, and the separation between kitchen and dining room is very odd. The food however has a good spice level, and has good flavors. My only complaint about the food was that it seems like the chicken was cooked separately and then just added in rather than being seasoned and cooked in the sauce.
Taj Mahal is a wonderful hidden gem that I love to visit on the loop. It's simply some of the best Indian food in the city and it doesn't break the bank. I used to go once a week when I lived closer and always try to find an excuse to get in the area so I can have it again. I have tried a number of different items on the menu and have always been so pleased. On top of everything, the staff there are so kind, attentive, and welcoming! Highly recommend this spot to everyone I can!!!
