We had to pay extra for the shrimp...not worth it, as portion was not small. We ordered Naan and expected a charge for that, but the raita sauce is also an extra charge. Restaurant was very empty, which is a shame. Could have been so much better. I'd like to return, but I suggest they do some menu choices that reflect different sauces.

This Indian restaurant is excellent, with attentive staff who don't rush you. It's the perfect place to unwind after a busy day or week at work. read more This Indian restaurant is excellent, with attentive staff who don't rush you.

Not the reaction one might hope for from a responsible restaurant. In the future, if we return, it will be chicken tika masala. That's pretty good at Taj.

I don't remember too many of them being better than Cafe Taj. In addition to delicious food, service was wonderful Personally I loved the Chicken Tikka Masala and the Paneer dish that we tried for the first time(I think it was the Shahi Paneer). We also ordered Bread Basket, which was awesome Overall a great experience. I would love to go back sooner than later.
