Taj Mahal Indian Cuisine - Columbia

The food is delicious. The restaurant used to be lovely when it was in the downtown area. However, the new location needs some improvements. Despite this, the food quality remains consistently good. It is recommended not to dine inside the actual restaurant. Instead, they will ask you to sit in the mall corridor, which surprisingly, is more comfortable than dining inside.

The food is phenomenal. They’re clearly taking great care with both their menu (several dishes I’d never seen before at other Indian restaurants) and its preparation. Super flavorful and well balanced. Incredibly kind staff. Service was slow, but we were there at a weird hour and service is basically slow everywhere right now. The food more than made up for the wait. Will definitely return!

I love that this popular restaurant has relocated to Parkade Plaza. The parking and access are much easier for those who prefer not to go downtown. I recently tried the Vegetarian Plate and it was amazing! The portions are generous and the naan bread is perfectly baked. A meal I had for two a few weeks ago was also delicious - I was still enjoying it four days later, and the flavors only improved with time. I dined in, but noticed many people picking up meals for takeout and catering.

I am in town for work and I order from this restaurant twice a week. The food is incredible! The chicken saag is especially delicious, I just can't get enough of it. I have never been inside the restaurant, so I can't speak to the atmosphere, but if you enjoy flavorful and spicy dishes, this is the place to go!
