I truly do not think they could make anything bad if they tried. Everything is excellent, especially the lamb.

My husband and son wanted some Indian food and we have not found any locally that is decent in Aiken So since I was in Augusta, I thought I would try Taj of India They had a very nice buffet set out which I may go back and try another time I ordered chicken, tiki masala, and butter chicken to take home along with naan & pakora Everything was delicious and this is definitely a must try Restaurant read more

The buffet is delicious and the service is great The owner is always so kind 100% recommended read more

I have only been to Taj of India once but the food was delicious! My son has lived in Warner Robins and now in Smyrna and the Indian food in those cities was incredible. I can say now that Taj met my expectations for Indian food. My go-to is always Chicken Tikka Masala or Butter Chicken. The atmosphere is low-key and the owners and servers are always so polite. I recommend them highly. read more

Had the tikka masala, Garlic Naan and their Mango Lassi. Very good Indian Restaurant the food tastes very flavorful and it felt like one of few best Indian Restaurant in Augusta. The service very nice when we had 12 people attend and were accommodating. read more

So I cant attest to the location or restaurant itself as I cheated and Door Dashed my food...however I can say that the food is excellent! Service was fast too and everything arrived perfectly in my scheduled time frame. The chicken tikka masala is one of the best I've had...got medium spicy but it wasn't overwhelmingly spicy. Very creamy and great balance of flavors, the rice was cooked perfectly. Also got the Dang Bang shrimp and its like the upscale version of Bonefish's (this is literally the only reason I get food from there...even donated blood one time to get a gift card for the shrimp...lol) so will definitely get this again. Tried the vegetable samosa and it did not disappoint...still crispy when we got it and the filling was great with perfectly blended spices with the chick peas and potatoes...loved the little green dip it came with. Garlic nan is a must have on the side! I definitely enjoyed this meal and thought it was on par...or maybe better than the upscale Indian place in Nashville owned by a renowed Tournament of Champions winner that we tried earlier this year. Best part is: I will get to enjoy it again as we had plenty of left overs! read more

A local friend brought me here while visiting and it was so incredibly good! I got the butter chicken & a mango lassi and she got the chicken tikka masala. I would definitely go back. It's a small place but they weren't too busy in a Thursday night, likely due to the holidays and unexpectedly cold weather for Georgia. read more

This restaurant is a bit far from where I live in Augusta, but I'd be happy to come back again! Food was yummy and they give huge portions of their entree curries. The service was very friendly and our server joked around with us which made me feel very welcome there. We went at around 2pm on a Sunday, and we were seated at the secondary dining room where it didn't seem too busy. Food didn't take long to get to us. I ordered the Chicken 65, which was not on their menu but actually part of the specials they had written on the blackboard outside of their shop. It was classified as an appetizer, but with the rice they served for the table (my friends ordered curries), I was very full and didn't have to take home any leftovers. The chicken was delightfully crispy and seasoned well, but I wish I had the option to add a little more spice. The server said he would give a side of chili powder for me to add, but I think he forgot? Nothing to dock a star over though. Also ordered the pistachio kulfi (ice cream) which was solid. No, literally. Felt more like an ice bar than ice cream, but I really can't complain. I kinda wish they didn't put the strawberry/chocolate syrup on top though, as that kinda masked the taste of the ice cream. Overall will visit again to try one of their curries at spice level 5 lol read more

This suburban strip mall place appears small, but has a second dining room, both of which are nicer than one might expect. Service was a bit slow as they were busy. Starting with a chai gave me a legitimately well-spiced brew, but also a bit of disappointment as it was unsweetened and the options provided included artificial sugars and white sugar but no brown sugar (let alone unrefined jaggery of the sort that I assume would be the real deal here). A long list of food options made choices tough, but I was happy with my freshly cooked okra. The rice came with a delightful touch of cashews and raisins; nothing huge but the psychological effect of these sorts of things is worthwhile. They offered me more if I needed it, but there was abundant rice the first time around. My aloo paratha was freshly cooked and warmly spiced. A chickpea salad which I ordered specifically because the menu said it didn't have cucumbers ended up having quite a few, but there were certainly other appetizer choices worth coming back to try. read more

My husband likes Indian cuisine but I do not. I agreed to go to Taj of India with an open mind. One could not help being impressed with the service, the attentiveness of the staff and the excellent menu choices. I chose wine, rare for me but my favorite was on their wine list. We were only there 10 minutes when the restaurant started to get busy. But despite the crowd, we were comfortable in our corner table and able to have a quiet conversation. On the wall hung the many awards Taj has earned over there years. Very impressive. I am sorry to have to report that despite my open mind I could had a hard time finishing my meal. You either like this cuisine or you don't. But if you do, please check out this fine venu read more

When we first entered it was extremely cold. Even with a jacket. The staff said they couldn't make it warmer because the AC had been out. Hmmmm. She did eventually turn down the fan though. We had the samosa chaat. It was good but not great. Then curry chicken and tikka. Both were decent. The naan was a small and very thin. Lastly the water tasted very odd and we didn't drink it. read more

I've been wanting to try Taj of India for quite sometime now but usually not in the area during the lunch buffet hours. Today I finally got the chance to try it out. While my experience was not bad, I don't think I'll be returning. The dining area was nicely decorated and clean and the staff were pleasant. However the food didn't feel very authentic and lacked the bold spiced flavors I expect from Indian food and the buffet options were very limited. I would have liked to have seen a variety of appetizers, a variety of main dishes and several side dishes. The reality was 1 appetizer that was labeled vegetable pakora but tasted and looked like frozen sweet potato fries, tandoori chicken, butter chicken, an eggplant dish in a korma tasting sauce, stewed squash and naan bread. There was also a salad section that contained 1 tray with lettuce, 1 tray sliced oranges, rice pudding, a bowl of seasoned carrots and a raita. I tried a little of everything except the salad and the squash. While nothing was terrible, and any Indian food is better than going hungry, nothing stood out as great either. The tandoori chicken had good flavor but was very dry and tough. The butter chicken had a good base flavor of seasoning and great texture and mouthfeel but the spice level was nonexistent. No heat at all. I found both the butter chicken and the eggplant dish to actually taste somewhat sweet which is definitely not what I want from curry style dishes. As I said before the item labeled vegetable pakora looked and tasted like frozen sweet potato fries. They were not crispy and did not taste like and pakora I have eaten elsewhere. While I understand that raita can be made endless ways, this variety was not for me. It was mixed diced vegetables in a very loose/wet yogurt and the herb profile tasted like tzatziki to me. While I love tzatziki, it was not what I was expecting to taste when I added it to a bite of butter chicken and rice. The rice pudding had the best flavor out of all of the dishes but again the texture was off. It was very wet and soupy. Overall, the price was reasonable and staff were great but the food offered on the buffet did not meet my expectations and I will not be returning for it again. While I May at some point give the regular menu a try, it won't be any time soon. Ambiance: 3.5 Staff:3 Food on buffet: 1.75-2 read more

It's been a few years since I've come back to Taj of India....mostly because of the location being farther compared to other restaurants so when my friends invited me to dinner I had to say yes. We shared 2 appetizers the lollipops and the vegetable pakora. Definitely recommend the pakora....nicely fried with the right amount of seasoning. I got my usual go to Indian dish chicken korma. The portion was large and flavor was amazing. You can get spice level 1 to 5 (I got a 2 which is mild plus and not really spicy at all...will go for a 3 next time). My friend got the Chennai kochi curry which was really good if you like coconut gravy. The dining room is small but that being said we didn't have to wait for a table nor did any of the other diners (we went at 530 on a Friday night). Service was great. They refilled our waters, came to check on us. Will definitely be returning read more

Run, don't walk to this restaurant. I've lived here for over 10 years and knew nothing about this hidden treasure. The music and the atmosphere made this place "happy" for me. Yes, I was dancing in my seat, and if you judge me, you're NOT a foodie. That's what this place does....it's makes your mind, stomach and soul happy. If you don't know what to get, go for the buffet. I didn't know what half of the items were, but I know that they were all delicious. I'm a person who said I'd never eat tofu, and guess what? I tried AND liked it. The buffet is 14 dollars and drinks are extra, but it's worth it. I as told that the items vary by day, so I guess I'll have to go often, right? The tandoori chicken with the creamy onion sauce? My fave. read more

Great food. Great lunch buffet Great prices and portions. Gotta get it at least once a week If u love indian food go here read more

We started with the chicken samosas. They were light but packed with flavor. The star of the appetizer was the tamarind chutney which took it from a good appetizer to a great one. For dinner we tried the chicken curry with garlic roti and the special curry with spicy naan and rice. Both options were solid choices with a good tomato base curry. My only complaint was the large amount of cilantro on everything. My husband loved it, not so much for me. The portions were large enough to eat for dinner and still have enough for lunch tomorrow. We will definitely be back. I really want to try the lamb and goat. read more

One of my favorite spots in Augusta for years now. This place never disappoints. Everything tastes amazing every time. The owners are the sweetest people ever. They have a really awesome lunch buffet and they even offer military discounts. I remember coming here for dinner when my parents came to town and the lady owner held my daughter for a bit and was so caring and playful. Tonight I didn't know what I wanted to eat and decided to get take out an hour before they closed. They were so kind and I am beyond happy. Best decision ever. read more

Easily my favorite restaurant in the CSRA. Delicious fare that's made with so much love. Every dish I've tried has been an absolute knockout, but I have a soft spot for the lamb Madrasi. Pro tip: they offer b.y.o.b. Bring your favorite bottle of wine with you to the restaurant (corkage fee is currently $10) and enjoy it with your meal. read more

Food was good , portions smaller than what I'm used to in Texas but hey we just do it bigger , lol! Overall food was delicious, spice was just right on chicken curry which I liked mines hot & nose running ! Order correct , packed great , no complaints really , I would order again ! P.S prices are a tad bit higher maybe because I ordered off Door Dash but no biggie to me , personally. read more

Great Indian restaurant. Probably the best one in Augusta. The interior isn't that impressive, but the food is. I ordered my usual Chai tea, which is REAL chai... not made from powder. I ordered the vegetable samosas, great flavor. Then the half tandoori chicken which was incredibly moist. I also ordered the cheese naan, which was not the best I've had. I prefer the cheese naan made with cream cheese. I'd probably get garlic or regular next time. The rice was good but it came with nuts and dried fruit in too and I did not like that. Their Indian pickles were also great. Tasted fresh. My husband ordered the lamb vindaloo and it had great flavor and spice. We will definitely return. I even had enough food to take home. read more

Cute little local place tucked in the plaza where Final Cut used to be. We got the chicken samosas, and I also got the chicken tikka masala with cheesy naan. The chicken was really good and the sauce that came with the samosas was also delicious. I liked the naan but I think I might try a different kind, this one was kind of dry. They also gave you rice for the table. The service was great and the menu selection was nice. I'll have to come back and try their buffet as well! read more
