Made it before the cut off time for their lunch special which is 3:00pm. I called over the phone and the staff was very patient with me. The cute restaurant was empty, but people picked up their orders or for delivery. The staff gave me a snack that had fennel seeds and was a savory snack while I waited for my order. So sweet. My lunch special was $13 and included chutney, tomato soup, meat samosa, and curry lamb entree with naan and rice. I think it's a pretty good deal. I really enjoyed their rice which is basmati with fennel seeds; this adds so much jazz to the rice. The naan was nice and soft. The lamb curry was ok, and will probably try something else next time. read more

This place just sits in the corner of Grand Street and have lunch specials! Their lunch specials are what attracted me to this place. I got the chicken lunch special at $12.95 pre tax which comes with chicken tikka masala, one vegetable samosa, naan, soup, saffron rice, and 3 difference chutneys for dipping. The chicken tikka masala had a lot of seasoning and a lot of sauce. The chicken was very fresh, chewy, and chunky. I love the chutneys which made everything better. The naan was very soft and warm and easy to chew. The samosa was very starchy in my opinion filled with a lot of potato. Overall the meal was very affordable with a lot of appetizers to go along with the chicken tikka masala meal. read more

Everything here is amazing. We had many dishes delivered for a picnic and had so much flavorful food left over!

What a gem! Stumbled in here on a cold winter day and was delighted we had the place to ourselves since it was a weird time of day (2pm). Got the lunch special ($11.95 for vegetable, $12.95 for meat, runs 11:30-3 daily) and it was such a good deal--chutney, soup, an appetizer, a main course, rice and naan. Everything was SO tasty. My chicken tikka was flavorful and rich. The rice was nicely spiced too and they gave us an abundance of naan. Prompt friendly service, clean bright space, delicious food. Wish I lived closer and would be in here for lunch all the time! read more

Late night eats here!! Curry lamb was excellent Lamb Samosas were not good at all. Super dry meat with no seasoning The mint sauce and chutney were way too sweet The yellow Dal was excellent Pretty little spot, but I ordered to go. The host was professional and helpful read more

Ordered this one night while I was black out drunk at a friend's place. I woke up with hands stained by turmeric, and thankfully my other half had saved my leftovers for later. I had them sober and sweet Jesus let me tell you this food was delicious and tasty. Definitely returning next time read more

Tandoori chicken was flavorful and tender, a true delicacy to eat. The green chutney was super flavorful and tbe perfect amount of spicy. Because we came right when they opened and we had to wait for the tandoor to fire up, they were generous with complimentary appetizers since. Amazing experience, and very affordable pricing read more

I ordered this for delivery recently and it was very difficult for me to eat. I can usually handle spicy foods so I thought Madras would be a good level for my dish since it would be less spicy than vindaloo or the even spicier option. Sadly, the food had lots of heat but barely any actual flavor. Even mixing yogurt into my dish made it slightly more bearable but not the most enjoyable. read more

Came with my mom on a Saturday evening we were the only ones there up until like 20 mins when someone went to pick up and order they had placed. They greeted us upon arrival and told us to sit anywhere we like to. The restaurant is cute and quaint. However, they don't play any music which I found odd bc it would definitely be nice to listen to something in the background besides the workers. They gave us some chutneys (pickled onions, tamarind sauce, and a green spicy sauce) all good served with some crispy flat bread almost like a tortilla. We ordered chicken samosas and a vegetable soup which was very creamy and hearty. The garlic naan definitely tasted fresh however it didn't taste garlicky enough just like plain pita bread with a bit of oil and garlic on top. The samosas were a bit over fried but tasty. We got chicken tiki masala with rice to share and to drink we got a mago lassi which was delicious and creamy and just delightful and a Indian spiced tea which was good too on a chilly Saturday which had rained all day. We got one to go the tea taste like clove freshly spiced with a hint of ginger. We will definitely be back. read more

It pains me to write this review as I have always enjoyed their takeout. I decided to dine in recently and while i enjoyed my food - somewhat- I dont trust how my food is being prepared. My family came in to an empty restaurant on a weekday around dinner time. There were no other diners in the restaurant but it seemed like a lot of orders were going out for delivery. I ordered a prefixe menu item with naan, curry chicken, samosas, rice and salmon. It was a great deal. We were served from metal silverware. They kept our water filled with cold water which was nice. After we ordered we were given complimentary soup that we didnt care for. Our main courses arrived and over the white rice lay a single 2 inch long black hair. We called over the server. When he came over, we showed him the hair and he tried to take the bowl back to the kitchen and we asked him to leave it there and bring us a fresh bowl. Once that was rectified, we ate our meal - inspecting every bite and once we were done we we tried to call over the server; who was busy folding napkins and picking his nose. The check could not have come faster. Im sad to say this location is no longer in our take out rotation - the hair is understandable but picking the nose IN FRONT of customers worries me about what is happening in the kitchen. read more

Was so upset with my order. The man did not understand me. Gave me the ring soup even though I showed him on the menu. He talked me into the curry chicken and even the rice was terrible. Won't be going back. I throw everything away. read more

One of the worst restaurant named Indian restaurant. It's not an Indian restaurant.They serve very unhealthy food which are very old they made this dishes very long ago and serve this . Don't waste your money there. I am not coming here again read more

Walked in here to order some food tonight and the person at the cash register was incredibly rude to me for no reason. This was the most uncomfortable encounter I've had at a restaurant. Some people just shouldn't be in hospitality business. I'd never step foot in here again. read more

I've had plenty of disappointments in life, but the paneer makhni from here tops the list. The gravy was too sweet and there was barely any paneer. The garlic naans are the second biggest disappointment. More disappointing than Morocco losing to France in the worldcup. Would only have kebabs from here (not paneer kebabs though) read more

*Updated Delivery review* I recently ordered my usual butter chicken, cheesy naan and banana pankora and was super upset to find the banana pankora completely raw. I bit into it and was focused on something else, went to swallow and realized I was eating raw dough. It was a complete waste and upset my stomach the entire rest of the day. I'm too scared to order delivery here again. read more

Pretty sure this place is just a scam. Here's a pic of the $14 chicken saag that was actually just chick peas in grease. read more

Taj Kabab King - Chicken saag? - Indian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This is NOT Indian food; this is what Americans think Indian food is. There's little to no flavor, and the only saving grace is the fast service and the affordable lunch menu price of $8.95. The sag paneer isn't the right color. The chutney isn't the right color; is was a neon glowing green. This place was also empty during lunch; another red flag. I wouldn't come back here for anything, honestly. A HUGE let down. read more

I placed a large order from this restaurant, vegetable samosas and pakoras were burnt and drenched in oil, I ordered two of their soups were also half the container was just oil and the taste was disgusting , keema paratha was basically a modified beef pattie, why would you advertise that thing is a paratha? The only thing that was decent was the Aloo naan, besides that clearly this restaurant has no standard to send out such disgusting food, you can't pay me your way there again. No thanks. read more

Food was excellent! Seriously some of the best butter chicken I've had. The restaurant itself was nice with a lot of tables and clean, however it was awfully quiet which made me uneasy. The service was good, they included a complementary appetizer that was very delicious. My only complaint was that at the end of the meal I couldn't get the leftovers to go since I was on my way to a concert and the manager seemed upset and asked if we thought the food was bad. I quickly assured him it was really good and I'd take it if I could, but I still didn't appreciate being confronted about it. I totally will be going back though! read more

Ordered 7 chicken , 6 veg kathi roll & 6 samosas. Never seen a Kathi roll like this. It was basically some kind of fried roti. Veg roll was only filled with cauliflower only, even chicken roll didn't taste good . Samosas was smelling very bad. It was just a waste of money . read more

Absolutely banging saag paneer - quite spicy and much more complex flavor wise than most!

I ordered delivery from here late at night (around midnight) on a weekday when almost everything else that seemed decent was closed. Let me say I am so glad I took the chance. This is one of the best Indian meals I've ever had. Both dishes we ordered, the chana saag and the lamb vindaloo, were super flavorful and had all the right spices. The garlic naan was soft and just the right size and right amount of garlic. The chana saag is definitely the best spinach dish I've had so far at an Indian restaurant. Considering the distance to where I was, they delivered the food pretty quickly. I can't wait to get delivery again from here and even check it out in person! *** Editing now to say get the lamb rogan josh. That plus the chana saag are my go tos. This is one of my favorite places for delivery, not just late night but all the time. read more

Taj Kabab King - Naan. - Indian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Butter Chicken it is, is my favorite Indian dish, I usually get it from any Indian restaurant I visit. This one I can say is excellent in taste as to other places. I came here with a few friends for a night and we all loved it. It is not my average 10.00 lunch though. It was $25.00 for the Butter Chicken with 3 garlic naans, enough for 2 people. I really don't know of many different Indian dishes, however, I can always get it right with Butter Chicken. read more

Ordered Paneer Masala and it was amazing! Great local business to support! Also got the pakoras which were really delicious. Highly recommend! read more

This was my first time eating Indian food and I absolutely loved it. My friend and I ordered Chicken Tikka Marsala and it was AMAZING. I also ordered the spinach and cheese, rice and naan. The food was so authentic and had such a great taste. They bring everything so quickly and really have amazing service. They also give you nachos with three different sides that you can eat them with. Its a small cozy spot that you would enjoy. I would recommend this place for a couple or really small group of friends, 4 max. I will absolutely come back to this place. read more

This is based on delivery. This is my go-to Indian delivery. The flavor on all the dishes that I e ever ordered has been excellent. The quality just seems superior to other places in the area. read more

We have ordered from this place a bunch of times. The Taj Kathi Rolls are my favorite appetizer ever! Tons of flavor. The Vegetable Samosas are wonderful and so are the Chicken Samosas. I love Papadum now. We tried the Chicken Bengal which is great if you want smooth, not spicy. Aloo Matar Gobi, is great. Flavorful and satisfying. What I really loved was the Taj Special Grilled Chicken. It's packed with wonderful flavor. I was afraid of the price, but it's enough chicken for 2 easily. They cook it tender and juicey with the perfect amount of spices for anyone. Get the sag Paneer. Don't try and skimp by getting the spinach appetizer instead. The sag paneer is much better. The Chicken Tikki Makhani is the best of the red sauces so far. read more

Excellent service , friendly, and most of all the food is excellent. Hot poori, spicy hot vindalu, and what I love the is the spicy flatbread cracker and different chutney when sit down. Mango lassi. Loved it read more

I ordered from here through seamless and I wanted to update my review. There were some shining star dishes that I would reorder (Peshwari Naan was delicious and inhaled immediately with the Mango Chutney, the Mango Lassi was perfect - not too sweet and nicely balanced, thr Shrimp Shahi Korma was a surprise delight, the Samosas were beautifully crisp and the raita was surprisingly thick and a nice addition). The rest of what I ordered was good and upon second taste, the spice from the Mushroom saag (waaay too spicy for my liking) carried over to the Sag paneer - the Sag wasn't as spicy as I had originally thought and there must've been turmeric or something that changed the color - not tomato based as I thought at first. I was still disappointed that the food spilled and there was unexpected cilantro on almost everything, but I would probably order from here again after all. read more

Placed order. Got charged. Said they never received it even though I had the Uber charge go through. Very disappointed. Could not wait for food and did not want to wait for a 10 minute rush job on the food read more

Amazing delicious authentic indian food. Open super late and always satisfying. One of my favorite spots in all Of brooklyn. Me and my gf order from here at least once a week. Trust me, I'm indian and my gf is a white american and we're both in love...with taj kabab king! read more

I live in park slope, and I have been searching far and wide to find my favorite Indian place in Brooklyn. This takes the crown. Out of the 6 places I have tried since moving here, this is absolutely the best. I prefer my curry sauces to be thick and dense with flavor. This was that. I hate when sauces are thin and sugary, and this was the opposite! Robust, gravy like, and packed with favor. I recommend the butter chicken, with the necessary side of garlic Naan. read more

Taj Kabab King - a bowl of food on a tray - Indian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This used to be my favorite Indian restaurant in Brooklyn. However, had not ordered for a few months. Received take out tonight - NOTHING like it was in past. Keema paratha was in poori dough, exactly like the bland cheese poori I ordered. Biryani House special was really a fried rice dish - no shrimp to be found. Used to be beautiful white rice with big shrimp and pieces of other meats and vegetables. This was all brown, mixed together, and greasy. Chicken korma was not sweet or flavorful. Sag paneer had very little spinach and was very greasy also. Will not be ordering again. So sad. read more

i walked in at 1am for a meal, i ordered the shrimp curry but the owner insisted i try another shrimp dish, he was so right. it was amazing. it's quite cute inside and for the hour it's open, i wouldn't recommend anywhere else. read more

I feel so mixed about this place. I've been ordering from Taj Kabab for years now. It used to be the only Indian place that delivered to me, but over the years several other Indian restaurants have popped up in the area. Taj Kabab stands out from these others in both good and bad ways... The good: You get more food for your money here. Like when I order their dinner special, I usually end up with enough food for like 3 meals. The flavors overall are usually pretty good. The other Indian restaurants' dinner specials come with significantly less food. The bad: Their food is consistently excessively greasy with pools of orange oil covering most dishes. Why?? And pretty much every time they deliver my order, there is something missing (appetizers, drinks, and most often sauces/chutneys). This is so consistent, it's a running joke with my roommate. In conclusion, other Indian options are probably healthier/less oily, but if you're kinda broke and want A LOT of food for your money, Taj Kabab delivers. read more
