We ordered several dishes including the biryani- which is with bone, chicken Karahi, gosht karahi, achari gosht, chicken Haleem, and mix platter which was basically a combination of malai boti, haryali boti, tandoori chicken, and seekh kabab. Everything was absolutely delicious! The naan was also crispy and wonderfully baked from the oven. For dessert we tried the ras malai- 10/10 and the gajar halwa, which was without khoya, but still pretty good- 7/10 Mango lassi -8/10 The service was splendid ! They even have a prayer area, so that was great too! They also have a shop in the annex where you can get all your local Pakistani spices and groceries (plus decorations).

We got a table right in the window early in the lunch hour, but for a Saturday it filled quickly so we were glad we got there when we did. The seating was spacious and attractive, and even when it got fuller didn't feel crowded. Our server was fabulous- not only knowledgable about the dishes, but ready with advice and suggestions, all of which worked out well. We started with the Annapurna tea with ghee and salt (new food #1!) which was a nice change of pace and I will definitely order again. For entrees we had the Buff Sukuti Dhido, Fish Thali, and goat biryani. The dhido (new food #2) is a lot like fufu in texture but wheat based, while the buff sukuti (new food #3) is sort of a spiced buffalo jerky. This had a great texture and flavor for my tastes. If you want to try the dhido with something a bit more familiar there are other options like chicken or goat. We did get the goat in the biryani and that was very good and came with a yogurt sauce two balance the flavor and heat. For the thali we got fish. Both the thali and dhodi came with several sides (greens, dal, potatoes, pickles, etc) which complemented the dishes well. Although two of our dishes (the thali and dhodi) were designed as dishes that one could eat individually, we actually shared all of our dishes which made for a super fun selection. There are many familiar south Asian dishes on the menu, but I definitely recommend a sense of adventure in approaching the menu because there are some really good new items to try at Annapurna. Tip: If you have leftover dhodi you can fry it up the next day.

Our server wasn't rude, but he also wasn't very attentive. He spent a lot of time going back into the kitchen, where it sounded like he was talking loudly or yelling. I couldn't tell exactly what was going on, but he wasn't very present in the dining room, and it took away from the experience. What bothered me most was the tipping process. I was prompted to leave a tip, but when I paid with my credit card, an automatic gratuity had already been added to the bill. It completely caught me off guard. I don't think this is an appropriate business practice, especially if it isn't made clear to customers. I've attached a photo for reference. As for the food, the dumplings were good, and the tikka pizza was decent. Next time, I'd order the pizza without the green peppers. I was also expecting the pizza to have more meat and a little more sauce. My boyfriend thought the pizza was really great though, including the vegetables, so different taste. Overall, the food has potential, but the inattentive service and confusing gratuity experience took away from what could have been a much better visit.

Boyfriend has been wanting to try Taj for a while and we finally took the opportunity to stop in while we were in the area. The ambiance inside the restaurant is calm and quiet. The service was efficient and friendly enough. We got paneer pakoras, chicken madras, paneer masala and garlic naan. You can choose your level of spice on a scale of one to six. I ordered my madras to be a five and my boyfriend ordered six for the paneer masala. The pakoras and chutneys were solid. The naan bread was soft, pillowy and had a pleasant chew, making it some of the best I've ever tasted. I tried the paneer masala and enjoyed the richness of it, plus my boyfriend said the spice of it was perfect. I really loved the madras curry, perfect spice level and bursting with flavor. Overall a very good experience at Taj. We will definitely have to make a point to return if we're ever in downtown Manchester again!

The Best North Indian Restaurant I Have Found…read more For a long time, I had been searching for an authentic North Indian restaurant that truly delivers outstanding food. One day, while I was in Salem, New Hampshire, I discovered Kashmir Indian Cuisine, and it turned out to be one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. I visited the restaurant with a group of friends, and we thoroughly enjoyed the tandoori specialties. The Chicken Tikka, Chicken Seekh Kabab, Tandoori Chicken, Garlic Naan, and Tandoori Roti were all cooked to perfection. We also tried the Haddock Pakora as an appetizer, which was absolutely delicious. Other favorites included the Chicken Saag, Chicken Tikka Masala, and Aloo Gobi. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and prepared with authentic North Indian spices. What made the experience even more enjoyable was the warm hospitality. The owner and the entire staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely cared about making every guest feel welcome. I was so impressed that I later hired Kashmir Indian Cuisine to cater my daughter's engagement celebration. The food was exceptional, and every guest complimented the quality, taste, and beautiful presentation. Their catering helped make our special occasion even more memorable. If you truly enjoy authentic North Indian cuisine, I highly recommend giving Kashmir Indian Cuisine a try. Make the drive just once, and I'm confident you'll enjoy the experience as much as I did. Highly recommended! Gursharan S. Gill Mr. Gill Newport Restaurant Group

I have been coming here since shortly after they opened, and it has always been one of my favorite…read morerestaurants. I almost always sit at the bar and order the Mixed Tandoori Grill because it has consistently been generous, well-prepared, and worth the price. Unfortunately, my experience tonight was incredibly disappointing. The service at the bar was poor. Although there were other guests there--many of whom appeared to be regulars--the bartender spent most of his time chatting with them and largely ignored me. I had to ask three separate times before I finally received service. When my meal arrived, it was nowhere near the quality or portion I have come to expect. The Mixed Grill, which has always included generous portions of lamb, chicken, and shrimp, consisted almost entirely of chicken, with only about two small pieces of lamb and a single shrimp. It was a dramatic difference from what has been served for years. I politely mentioned this to the bartender, and his response was simply, "Tough times, less food." I found that response both dismissive and disappointing. If portions have been reduced, customers should not be paying the same premium prices without any acknowledgment. After years of consistently great meals, this was genuinely sad to experience. Spending nearly $75 on a meal that felt significantly diminished in both quality and value is hard to justify. Because of my long history with this restaurant, I may give it one more chance, but based on this visit, I cannot recommend it. It was a very disappointing experience from both a service and food standpoint.
