This is not the original incarnation of Jai Ho From 2013 to…read more2020, they were in a strip mall on Fowler. Unfortunately, the riots in 2020 damaged the restaurant and they were forced to close. They later had a location inside the University Mall food court from 2022-2025. In that location, they added middle eastern food in addition to Indian. I didn't know that they opened this new location. I'm unsure if the mall location is fully closed down. I was browsing Google Maps and saw this one and decided to try it out. In the 2010s, it was my favorite place in North Tampa/USF. They had good flavorful good at moderate prices. When we first moved to Tampa in the 90s, we patronized Taj well into the 2000s. Jai Ho stole the crown and I brought my relatives and friends occasionally. The new location is inside the Oasis Bay Suite hotel. You go into the lobby and walk out and to the left passing the gym. The interior is orange and brown ,divided into halves. I arrived at 620 pm and there were only 2 older gentlemen dining. I ordered a Coke and Chicken Biryani. Pros: Solid service. Clean restaurant. Good prices. The biryani was $14 (It was $13 last time I ate there more than 5 years ago) Cons No physical menu. I was given a sheet with QR code. When asked for my order, they didn't ask the spice level which they used to in the first location. The biryani took about 10 minutes to arrive. It looked fine. However,there was a lack of chicken pieces. I feel like there was 20 percent less boneless chicken than usual. It came with raita ,but it wasn't really spicy. They used to be above average in terms of spice. The biggest problem was that a lot of the rice just tasted of ghee and no masala/spices at all. There were very few cooked onions and cilantro. It wasn't bad,but it lost a lot of the fire the old version had. Truth be told, I've lost interest in Indian food in recent years,but I still want to occasionally get a good tandoori chicken or biryani occasionally. COVID took its toll on many Indian restaurants in different ways. There may be growing pains or a new chef,and I hope the meal experience was atypical and can get back to how it was in the 2010s. Overall: Solid but unspectacular Indian food

This is a beautiful space located in Ybor. Sadly it was raining, but the outside patio will be lovely to visit when the weather is nice. The inside is charming and decorated nicely. We shared the chicken Tikka Masala and chicken saag with garlic naan (of course!). Everything was delicious and we enjoyed the Taj Mahal beer and Rupee IPA with our meal. I definitely recommend getting an Indian beer with dinner! Our server was very friendly and took good care of us - honestly all the staff was really nice. We didn't feel rushed and really were able to enjoy our dinner and conversations before the check came. This will definitely be our local go to for Indian food. The counter was constantly full for to go orders, so we will also plan to order take out in the future too!

The hours are a little inconvenient being they don't open until 6 during the week and 1 on Saturday. The menu was a bit confusing as I didn't know what alot of the stuff was so it may help to have a brief description of dishes. I opts out to try the butter chicken tacos and samosa for about $16. Both were tasty and authentic. Worth a try if you enjoy this type of food.

I was in the area for a meeting and did a quick search for Pakistani or Indian food--this place…read morepopped up. It was around 4:30 PM, so I wasn't sure they'd be open, but they were already serving, so I drove over. It's a new spot, open for about a month. The two ladies running the place were very attentive, and I happened to be the only customer around 5 PM. Normally, when I visit a restaurant like this, I order three or more dishes to sample a variety and enjoy the leftovers at home over the next few days. But since I won't be home until midnight tonight, I went with a single dish to test the waters: chicken tikka masala. I give that an A--flavorful and well-prepared. The rice was decent (I'm not a big fan of rice in general), so I'd rate it a B. The service was excellent, also an A. I even tried the rice pudding, which surprised me--I usually don't care for it, but theirs was genuinely enjoyable. Another A. The only downside: they don't have a tandoor oven yet, so the naan was the store-bought kind you'd find at an Indian grocery. It didn't quite match the quality of the entrée. I'd give that a C. Hopefully, they'll add a real tandoor to their kitchen soon. The ambience is typical medium sized family owned restaurant, but bright and easy. The toilet was also well lit, and clean. Overall, I'd definitely come back to try more dishes. Promising start for a new restaurant.

When I went to pick up the order, I was surprised by the long line of people waiting to order and pick up their food--a sign of its popularity!

Next, we tried the Chicken Tikka Masala, which was good with rice, though a bit sweeter than we expected. We'll definitely be back to try more items from their menu, especially their different rolls.
