I have been a customer of this place for almost 7 plus years, I used to come here to authentic Pakistani food before covid. This place is managed by a lovely couple who makes sure that you experience the authentic Pakistani food. Their species are not over whelming, they don't use colors in their food and turn it all red, everything is made from the scratch. The service is top notch and very friendly, restaurant is clean and tidy. If you like good authentic Pakistani food, this is the place to go. read more

Taj Cuisine Indian Pak food - Butter chicken, Chana masala, a samosa and naan - Indian Near Me - Garden City, Michigan

Tried food for the first time today and have to say it was delicious !! Butter chicken with rice, Samosas, regular naan and garlic naan ! I love spice but it doesn't love me so I ordered the butter chicken mild plus and it was perfect ! (Mild is zero spice the woman taking the order told me) . The bread was so warm and fluffy and big !! The samosas were GOOD just not great for me because they were spicy but my husband liked them (spice doesn't bother him) ! The brown and green sauce that come with them were both very good ! Customer service was awesome too ! We will definitely order from here again and often !! A+ read more

I haven't had Indian food in FOREVER and wanted butter chicken with samosas. The food was 10/10, authentic and made to order. The food was truly unbelievable, it brought back so many memories when I was a kid eating this with my sisters. We did take out, but the service was incredible. They're so friendly! read more

We used to eat at this restaurant while we were in nursing school a lot. We moved, and then moved back to the area so we decided to try it again after inching back out into the world since the pandemic hit. We ordered carry out today - Butter Chicken, Lamb Biryani, and 2 orders of Garlic Naan. Wowza....the food was delicious! 1. The butter chicken was PURE HEAVEN and we devoured it fighting for who would get the last bites. We truly wished we placed two orders of this so we had lunch for tomorrow! Hands down an A+++ rating! 2. Lamb Biryani had nice size chunks of super tender lamb! We both are more savory profile people, so the flavor profile was a little sweet, but still a 10/10 (A rating). 3. Garlic Naan was the perfect amount of garlic to complement both meals. One order per person was perfect! Thanks so much for a great meal and Taj Cuisine will be on our rotation for carry out until we feel comfortable eating out regularly. On a side note, the carry out person was very nice and the establishment was spotless and smelled extremely clean! read more

Driving past the place you wouldn't think much of the place especially since the lot appears pretty scarce. To the naked eye probably make you second guess the place and you would just keep driving on... DO NOT DRIVE AWAY!!! Compared to most Indian Cuisine restaurants in Michigan this one is one of my favorites. Starting off with some nice warm and crispy samaosas is always a solid move. Fried to perfection, not greasy in any way and the vegetables inside are warm and delicious. Dip it with the green sauce for a little zing and your already off to a great start to a good evening! To my Spicy food lovers anything Vindaloo is the dish for you and the Lamb Vindaloo will change your life. Definitely makes the aftermath worth it if you're picking up what I'm throwing down. The spices are just right, the meat is tender and juicy, and the rice along side with it, you couldn't ask for a better meal. Of course whats Indian food without some delicious garlic naan on the side. Make sure to do yourself a solid and grab yourself and order or two. With the amount of food you get remember sharing is caring! If you are looking for a new place to try or are just wondering about restaurants in the area go to Taj! Quiet, friendly staff, Perfect spot for a date night or an evening with the family. Prime example of never judge a book by its cover! Hope you eat and enjoy the food as much as I did! Nice quiet place to sit back and enjoy a nice meal. read more

This place used to be my goto place for biriyani when it was called "Tawa". Now with the name change, the chef changed and the food changed and it's not authentic. They do have lunch buffet. Decent options better than other places but lacking vegetarian options. So we end up ordering from the menu. I ordered different items each.. they are not prepared well at all. Veg biriyani- please frozen vegetables with corn in a biriyani?? Really?? It was sweet to taste and horrible. Nan and gobi curry- Nan was good, cooked perfectly. But the curry was again super sweet and buttery. The staff is friendly until you complain about the food. Nah!! I will not return here. read more

Taj Cuisine Indian Pak food - Veg biriyani - not authentic- not good - Indian Near Me - Garden City, Michigan

I've never dined in so bear that in mind, but I've gotten takeaway from here twice now and my conclusion is pretty straightforward. My food was delicious. Both times it has come exactly as ordered and exactly within the projected amount of time they told me on the phone. The flavors were excellent, both with the Tarka Dal and the Baigan Bharta. Prices are comparable to Indian you'd find in the Ann Arbor area so there's nothing really to knock. If I could say anything negative, it would be my usual complaint about Indian food. See, I LOVE spicy food. I have an obsession, and I'm really quite good at consuming spicy food. It's very stimulating. But, because I have a tolerance, when I ask for my food "extra spicy" it never ACTUALLY tastes spicy to me. This is no exception. Nonetheless, even if I could do spicier (and I ALWAYS could do spicier), the flavors were downright excellent. I'll stop here again! read more

Ive been wanting to try this restaurant with my parents for some time now! When we arrived unfortunately we were greeted by the front of the building covered in pigeon poop.... just for that we almost didn't get out of the vehicle and go inside.. especially my mother almost entirely refused to go inside! It was not an appetising sight... if not for that a solid 4 stars for sure!!! It was my parents first indian food experience. The food however was a 4. Maybe 3 & 1/2. The dishes traditionally come with bread or rice most dishes seem to be meat or vegi with sause. My parents both ordered shrimp which came with rice sauce and shrimp. Not entirely alot of variety but the rice and naan bread made it filling. The portions aren't big. Rather smaller so if you are starving id say you may consider two dishes or sharing among the group. I got quite the assortment of okra so i was pleased with my dish. We all seemed to enjoy it. This is the only local indian food place around. Unfortunately we wont be back until the bird faeces is removed. The flavours were definitely there! Maybe we will check back over the summer or over fall. Im nervous for something to drop into my hair and im nervous of the food quality. Im not sick its been alst 12 hours so the kitchen is clean however something like this raises concern for sure of how they take care of their Business! read more

We had take out from here yesterday. Samosas's, and paneer (both really good!). We also had Chicken Vindaloo and Chicken Tikka. Hands down, the best that we've eaten in awhile. Highly recommend their flatbreads, too! read more

Ohh Man....Why didn't I reviewed this place after being dining in here mostly??? Urghh... Anyways, here it goes: I am sure that this place is now under a NEW MANAGEMENT (you can figure it out for any restaurant if you are a frequent visitor, trust me on this one). This place serves BUFFET for about close to $11, with great varieties of VEG/NON VEG stuffs including salads and desserts. And as far as the DINING-IN options goes: Again they have a plethora of VEG/NON VEG items such as Paratha, Butter Chicken, Veg/Chicken Biryani, several options in dry curries Okra, Eggplant, Paneer etc.. Lastly, the main thing which I like about this place is "THEY KNOW THE MEANING OF MILD, MEDIUM and SPICY!!! I think it's important for me at least :P Give them a try guys!!!!!! They hv good food and good staff read more

Ok i was really looking forward to trying this, but it was a bit of a letdown. We got samosas, chicken pakora, and vegetable pakoras. Then we got the chicken curry. Samosas were well fried but the filling really lacked flavor. The chicken pakora was actually pretty good! Vegetable pakora needed more flavor too. Then the chicken curry came and i took the first bite and instantly felt a bitterness. It not only lacked flavor but was actually somewhat bitter. Even my friend said it was plain nothing that special. And trust me I'm well acquainted with the Indian cuisine and make many of the curries at home, this is not the right flavor. However the stars are because we had great service as well as a clean nice place with lots of space. I may actually give them a try one more time and then update my review to say if the food was any better. read more

I've been going here for years. The waitress Jessica is the best! The food is always on point and never disappoints. The portions are good and the buffet is always fresh and tasty.

I love indian food but the food here needs some work. I ordered the chicken biryani which came out super super bitter like I was eating lemon peel. We also had samosas which really need improvement as well. I know they're fried but these were absolutely double fried or something of that sort. I really wanted to enjoy myself here, but unfortunately the only thing that was good about this place was the nice waitress. read more

I love this place! I've been eating here for years and pretty much always order the same thing - the vegetable biryani, the aloo tikki (crisp potato patties served with chana masala, which is basically chickpeas in a spicy curry) & the gajar halwa - my favorite Indian dessert. If you've never tried it, I highly recommend you do. It's grated carrots made into a thick pudding of sorts - it is sweet and seasoned with lots of cardamom and topped with slivered almonds here but some places top it with cashews. They are FAST, the food is always hot, fresh & accurate and the girl working the cash register is really nice. read more

This was my first visit to Taj Cuisine and would go again for sure ! The food was good. Everything from the lentil soup, samosas, Butter Chicken, and Chicken Tandoori. The only thing that wasn't that great is the Naan (bread). It was very thin, more than I'm used to having, and a little bit dry. It was okay, but I've had better. Aside from the food, the place was nice and clean, and the service was good. The waiters were nice and kept checking on us. Would recommend it ! read more

Had the Lamb Regan Josh and it was the most lean and tender lamb I have had from an Indian restaurant in quite some time. The cardamom sauce was bursting with flavor. Service was prompt and friendly! I would highly recommend. read more

I ordered butter chicken and lamb vindaloo with garlic naan. The price and portions are great, however the flavor of the dishes tasted like they were missing the depth that I normally get when ordering at other restaurants. For example, the vindaloo sauce tasted underdeveloped, like tomato sauce and chili- no other flavors present. Also, I ordered garlic naan and they gave me regular naan. Sadly, I will not be ordering from here again. read more

The butter chicken was excellent. Cooked perfectly with a lot of flavor. Will be coming back again

I have been coming to this place for the past 3 years, their food is cheap and portions are really generous! Food is really delicious and fresh, their food is not the most authentic Indian food in the world, but good wholesome food nonetheless. If I can describe this place with one word, it would be "Consistency". read more

Its the best Indian restaurant near inkster/dearborn heights/garden city. Biryani is not typical hyderabadi biryani. Its different. I like it. But, their best work is with bread (naan). Those are sooo soft and tastes amazing. Buffet is not bad but with few dishes. But their naan makes up for everything. Decent service. read more

The one waitress we've had, has always been very attentive. You feel like the service is personalized. We've only eaten here at dinner and it's good. Everything is cooked perfectly, chicken is moist and tender, sauces are flavorful. I don't get quite the array/complex spice palette I expect when I have Indian food though. I would describe this place as "somewhere you take a person who has never had Indian food before." It's kind of "safe Indian food." No gulab jabun on dessert menu either! :/ read more

Samosa's are not that great but not terrible either. The place is clean reasonably decorated. Service is excellent, quick and responsive staff! Garlic naan and Paneer Bhurji was good. Overall, good value. read more

We had the butter chicken and got it medium spice and it was awesome. The spice was perfect and we got the white rice to go with it. The chicken was nice and tender and very flavorful. We also got another dish to share and it was the lamb biryani and we got that medium spice also. The lamb was very good but the medium spice was a little too spicy for our liking. We would try it again but maybe a mild spice. This place is awesome and we will back especially after finding out they have a lunch buffet. read more

Honestly ignore the bad reviews . I have tried almost every Indian place in Michigan and nothing tops Taj . They're a family owned business , especially during the pandemic so let's keep that in mind when leaving reviews . The chief Is one man but incredible at what he does . The butter chicken is phenomenal. End of story . read more

Been here many times with the family, and everyone loves it. There's nothing they serve that we don't like. There are a few things we don't care for particularly, but everything tastes fresh and made skillfully. Four stars not five because, well, it's not quite "as good as it gets", but we'll keep going back for sure. The TVs are often too loud. But food-wise, meats cooked tenderly, sauces are simply delicious, veggies not cooked to death, and rice always cooked to a perfection. Simply delicious northern Indian food! read more

Back again and I'm so sad that the quality of food has really deteriorated ! Butter chicken away so thin it almost tasted like soup ! He have been so stingy putting up chicken tandoori ! Most of your patrons for lunch are Caucasians and they are looking for the most familiar grilled chicken so pile them up ! One thing I will still commend is its the only Indian buffet that have goat on the buffet which you don't see whether your in canton or by the Indian buffet islands of Farmington hills ! No more completion across the street made them complacent been back here weekly and the Last three times you have to wait half an hour before read more

I love this little hole in the wall. It's delicious and consistent. Craving authentic, spicy, fresh made Punjab food and don't want to drive to Canton or a2? This is the spot! I like to grab a carryout of hot butter paneer or paneer kadahi for dinner. I get it with a side of garlic naan and make my own basmati (you get to pick basmati or naan).. but you can also order extra sides and it's really reasonable compared to the other side of I275. They do have a buffet and it's good, but I'm partial to ordering fresh and getting exactly the way I like it. If you're a vegetarian, they will make a paneer version of any of the lamb or chicken dishes, but they also have all the classic Dal and Channa dishes. Rumor has it the chicken isn't particularly moist (I don't eat meat), but I personally would expect and desire that from tandoor oven cooking. Dining in is nothing special since the restaurant itself has no atmosphere and is cold in the winter by the big windows. I feels like it used to be a Ponderosa or something. The service, however, is great. Jessica is a saint and seems to singlehandedly run the front of the house. So it's a perfectly pleasant place to grab an affordable bite with good company, but it's the BEST place to get delicious and fresh takeout. The tabdoor oven is always cranking and the cook appears to make everything to order around the clock. read more

This place has seriously turned crap. I used to be a regular when this place was called Tawaa. The lunch buffet selection was pretty good and a great deal for the money. Since then, the food quality took major a nose dive. The buffet selection is a far cry from what was once offered. The sauces, such as that for the curry chicken, have been cheap-o stretched by adding so much water, there's no flavor left. And the chicken pieces are mostly bones with scant meat which makes the tray look like a bunch of chickens died in Flint tap water. You want be cheap with your customers? Fine. You just lost one. read more

The buffet has about 8 main dishes 1 grilled chicken 4 salad 2 desert plus some vegetables and spices Good hosting service The buffet was 10 $ the food is an average food nothing special I liked the masala and the curry chicken I didnt like the byriani or the grilled chicken And as all the indian restaurant everything is spicy I liked that all the food is halal read more

This is definitely not a top notch Indian restaurant, meaning primarily the quality of food. Having said that, it's not bad food, it's actually good, just not great. If I lived in the area i would come again. read more

I always get the butter chicken and it is always delicious. The waitress who is always working here is fantastic and works her butt off.

Sadly the worst Indian food in town. All the curries have the same tomato based dark sauce. The chicken tandoori had absolutely no flavor. Please don't call this Indian or Pakistani cuisine ... this is just some less then mediocre home cooking of someone who doesn't really know what good food is!! Sorry but don't waste your time or money! read more

I only go at lunchtime, for the buffet. Not bad in a pinch, especially since there are no real alternativ s for people in Dearborn. Butter chicken is bland. When I really want Indian, I go to Troy, to Royal Indian Cuisine, or Priya, or Ashoka. This place is not in the same league, but again, no alternatives around. read more

Normally my friend and I go to Authentikka in Canton for Indian food but they closed at 2 pm today so we couldn't make it and decided to try out Taj cuisine and wow I'm so disappointed. Everything in the buffet was cold and the chicken was tough. Three different types of chicken dishes and they were all bland and tough. Everything was cold and I was so dissatisfied. I went up multiple times to see if freshly made hot food came out but the whole time I was there they didn't bring anything else out and the buffet stayed cold. Will never come back, definitely not worth it. If you're interested in excellent Indian food, go to Authentikka in Canton!!! read more
