What a lovely place! The service was wonderful, and every part of our meal--from the appetizers to…read morethe entrées and dessert--was delicious. We started with both cocktails and mocktails, which were a great way to kick off the meal. For appetizers, we ordered the samosas and the Lasoni Gobi (stir-fried cauliflower). Both were full of flavor and absolutely delicious. For our entrées, we had the Vegetable Biryani and the Chicken Biryani. They were beautifully presented in adorable little pots and tasted just as good as they looked. You also can't go wrong with the garlic naan--it was the perfect addition to the meal. To finish, we shared the tres leches cake, and it was amazing--the perfect sweet ending. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience, and I would love to return to try even more items on the menu.

This place is in a residential, New Age-y kind of area, but with an older clientele. It is a fancy…read moreindoor space. Having brought a shoulder bag, I was offered a hook to hang it off my table. They did not offer a separate lunch menu, so I ordered a couple of things and took leftovers. Their special on manchow soup might lead one to wonder if there is such a thing as too many crispy noodles, to which my answer is no. Drowning them in the garlicky soup made for engaging eating, and on a cold day I was glad for a warm soup. This restaurant offers a dish of paneer which is toasted and placed atop of a rich sauce; I've seen versions of this dish at other modern Indian restaurants and while I don't eat a ton of paneer, this one was a winner. They had some vegan options but I could have hoped for more. A paratha was wildly flaky. They asked if I wanted drinks without having shown me a drink menu. I got plenty of food to satisfy myself.

Notably, they made an Indian fusion pizza for the buffet on our request. I was a bit surprised in the sense that the Indian food was higher quality than the pizza was. It was a spicy dal they had, there were a variety of vegetarian dishes and salad, and fresh items came through regularly. I'm not a huge buffet person but they did a good job of it. The paneer pizza was a bit underwhelming (the pizza, not the paneer), but I was able to find plenty of things worth eating.

I have been here twice months apart. Here is what I can say…read more Pros: 1. Good price 2. Big portions Cons: 1. No air conditioning 2. Food kinda bland. Chicken kabob needs more flavoring/seasoning 3. Naan was not soft at all. It was very crispy and had too much butter/oil. 4. Immediately had stomach issues when I arrived home. There are much better restaurants in Frederick with similar food. If you want to save money though then this will suffice. I personally will not be dining here again.

I got paneer biryani which was so good and my friend got mushroom masala which she loved. We also branched out and got the vegetable pakora as an appetizer and we both loved them!

My friend who usually gets mild said it was a little too spicy for her.

The dishes seem to be authentic and you can taste every bit of seasoning including cardamom, which is a signature flavor and aroma of a good curry. The gravy is thick and on both visits the texture was consistent. I was very impressed with the goat curry. I wanted to try the Kadai Goat, however it was not available on my visit. The food seems to be prepared to order as on both of my visits the host advised of a 30 mins wait to which they used every minute of it. The samosas were delicious and so was the Chicken Lollipop. The takeout quality seems to be as good as the dine-in. Overall, a very good experience and I will visit again when in the Frederick area.

What happened? Previous 5 Star!…read more We discovered this place midway through Covid, or very early 2021z We went with our friends, well they took us, and it became our favorite Indian cuisine in the area. The staff was incredible. Waiter was personable and brought us small free appetizer, or a desert, chai, etc. he even remembered us, and that's saying a lot. We went half a dozen times and always had outstanding food and a great time. The chef would always come out and ask how we liked our food. We'd leave a great tip and genuinely have a great experience with great food. And always getting something new for the app or desert. Every time I go I get the same dish. Chicken Vindaloo. The past two time we have went, the service has been dreadfully slow. First time I thought it was a fluke, and noticed the waiter didn't seem to know what was going on (at all) but our food was still good. No visit from anyone in the kitchen staff or friendly chatting though. Then tonight... what happened here. Is there new management? Was all the main staff out? We got in at 6:45, our friends getting there at 6:30. They asked for a booth and the waiter got flustered so said a table was fine. As we were sitting down with them the waiter came by and we asked for some water. It never came. Well it did some time later. There was a family of 4, 2, and our party of 4. Right after us was a party of 2, and 6. At 7:00 we got our water. At 7:15 we placed our order. Around 7:20 the party of 2 walked out. During this time food was trickling to the two tables ahead of us. We got the impression that the only waiter, had never waited before, had a mild language barrier, didn't know the menu, now how to use the desk computer. He came to our table twice to ask about what drinks we ordered. At around 7:40 we got our cocktails, and was one short. Glass of wine, Long Island, and a mojito. Missed the mojito, but they brought it to us as well as the second Long Island we asked for. Not sure if we got a mojito or margarita but it was fine. Long islands were in very small cups. Nothing had ice, not even the water. We received our Spinach Chaat and another app at 7:50 if I were to guess. In the past the Chaat has been incredible. Google crunchy spinach chaat and that's pretty much what we got. Tonight it was in a bowl, and completely different. It was more of a salad, with what I would describe as an Asian Rick cracker type noodle in it. It was good. But 110% different. Not what we expected. To me it didn't feel authentic and like it was premade. I'm thinking those crackers that you get from Chinese restaurants with your meal in those bags. The greasy ones. Our meals came at around 8 and again, different. Wow it's been over an hour! Our bread was moist but good. Didn't mop up any sauce though since it was so buttery. The rice, which we normally would get 1-2 large bowls for the table, we each got a small bowl, maybe 1 cup of rice if that. The rice was watery and didn't have the herbal flavor we were use to. I want to say there use to be peas in the rice. Tonight it was just rice. Mine had some clumps of rice in it, like you get from rice that's been in the fridge, had water added and then re-zapped. My vindaloo, which I was accustomed to being a lovely deep red in color, large chunks of chicken, and potatoes, was a curry orange in color. A Chick-fil-A spicy nugget had more spice. No potatoes and I counted 8 pieces of chicken. I didn't say anything as our server was so dreadfully slow. Nothing against the guy, he was very polite, apologized every time he came to the table (don't do this my friend, once is enough), but we didn't want to get stuck their longer. My wife said there was no spice In hers either. We got our to go boxes, which were the styrofoam boxes with 3 sections in it. Before they had those tin containers with plastic lids. I loaded my few spoons of rice and my Vindaloo curry contraption into the container, 99% sure it would spill in the car but my wife somehow kept it together, knowing I'd have to make some rice in the instapot for the leftovers, since they didn't give us any extra rice.... They use to just give you a full container or rice to go. We ended up leaving at 8:45. Remember we got there at 6:45. We each had one drink. And 2 refills of water. The spinach chaat had pre-made noodles(?) in it, with a salad of the rest on top. Our meals were lacking spice, and ingredients. The rice was bland and reheated. I love rice. I could live off it. This was not good rice. And it took 2 hours to have a meal that should have taken an hour. I'm not sure if this place is under new management, or what has happened. But this has happened twice now, so I'm not sure we will be going back until we hear things improve. And I hate to say that since it's 15min away from our house, and the experience gave it more then five stars before.

TLDR: tired place, tired food, tired service…read more.. Favorite Oldest Grand Daughter (FOGD) was working yesterday so missed family Thanksgiving. I took her out for lunch to help make up for the missed turkey (take that any way you want, sports fans). I gave her a choice of sushi or Indian buffet; she chose Taj Mahal. Taj has been around for many years but somehow I've missed it. I heard it has a nice buffet (a decent value for $19 at lunch). When we arrived there were very few patrons so server said we had our pick of seats. We sat at a booth near the bar, near the buffet. Seats were ratty but in better shape than other booths. We grabbed plates at the bar and went for food - which was really tired and dried out even though it was was well before lunchtime ended. Server said she would bring pans of rice, butter chicken, saag, and naan so we tried what was available. Samosas were cold inside but filling was tasty; chickpeas that came with it were really good but again, cold. Onion pakoras were great, but some chutneys would have been nice. Goat curry was tasty, dry-spiced potatoes were good and had enough heat to make them interesting, but everything else was middle-of-then-road. When the fresh dishes came out we replaced out plates and tried again. Butter chicken and saag were really, really good, rice was really crunchy (undercooked) and quickly dried out under the warming lamps, and naan was good when very fresh but quickly got crunchy. We did not go back for more and skipped the salad/dessert choices. Frederick has a bunch of really good Indian (and Pakistani and Afghani) restaurants (mmmmm, Mint Room, Tulip Grill, and Mayako) so I would not put Taj Mahal anywhere the top of my list of similar places.

Getting takeout was easy and quick. They had clearly labeled vegan options, and I got their version of red beans and rice, which was a hearty, warm dish for a cold day. Among the vegetarian but not vegan options, I got a samosa chaat which had an appropriately diverse mix of flavors and colors, and a chai, which I asked for unsweetened. The spices worked, but I wished I'd just gotten the lightest sugar level. I got a solid two meals out of it, good value for the money. The menu had more things that would be worth trying from my perspective. As fast food goes, this beats most conventional options easily.
