We were seated and asked for our drink order and Nan flavor. The food tasted good and was warm and rich. 1 plate was enough, but that was a little bit of everything. They have 2 televisions on the walls. One was playing music and the other was playing a cooking show. I used to go to the old location quite often. This was my first time at the new location and it is really nice and open with plenty of parking.

Vibe: Yeah, it's in a strip center (lol), but don't judge a book by its cover. Inside, it's surprisingly nice -- clean, comfortable, and way more inviting than you'd expect from the outside. It had that calm mid-afternoon vibe, perfect for grabbing a quiet meal. Service: Everyone was super friendly and easygoing. My server made great recommendations, checked in just enough, and had a really nice energy about them. You can tell they care about the experience. Food & Drink: I went with the Palak Paneer -- paneer cooked in creamy spinach with spices -- and it was awesome. The sauce was rich and flavorful, and it came loaded with paneer. I ended up getting extra rice just to scoop up every bit of that sauce. Totally hit the spot. Overall: Great food, great service, and a super chill spot to unwind. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Murfreesboro. Date of visit: September 7, 2025

I'll start by saying I'm kinda of picky when it comes to my Indian food. So, maybe I was just…read moretripping. This was my first time ever going to this restaurant and the people were nice, but not friendly. Here's what I mean, they smiled and were nice, not rude, but they weren't like trying to be helpful. For instance, I had no plate, fork, napkins, at my table, and our server didn't bring me one. So, one of the people I was with, grabbed a clean plate, napkin, and fork from another table (they're randomly on different tables) so I could have one. We were never asked if we needed a refill of our drinks or if we needed anything. It was a very hands off experience. I ordered a water and a sprite, never got a straw for both, so had to switch between the drinks. So, again, nice, but not friendly. The food wasn't the best. It was a group of 3 of us. 2 got the buffet, I personally ordered the Lamb Rogan Josh. The buffet didn't really have great options and the naan bread was just sitting out, so it wasn't nice and fresh. The food was decent, but it wasn't great. It was lacking in salt and surprisingly my meal was lacking in seasoning. I know. I know. Crazy right!? Indian food is never under-seasoned, but here we are. It honestly just tasted like spicy yogurt. Heat. Pepper. Not really the same as seasoned. The heat level , but the seasoned level ehhh. I took it to go and it got better the next day with some salt and covered in mint and tamarind sauce. Now, the meat samosas on the other hand, they were good. They needed a little salt, but they tasted pretty good. I mean I honestly have no complaints with them. They were nice and big. Crunchy. Seasoned pretty well. Overall 8/10 appetizer. No complaints from me on it. The other two enjoyed the biryani and bhatura ( soft fried fluffy bread) they had at the buffet. Those were the two things that stood out to them most. The restaurant is fairly dark and has a chill vibe where you just pick your own seats, which I really didn't have a problem with. My one complaint was the rips in some of the seats. It was a bit uncomfortable to sit on, but nothing that really destroyed your visit. It was more just like a "aww, man, that's annoying..." and then move on type of thing. Every once in a while I'd look down, see the big piece of tape and then have to reshift myself, but other than that, no big deal. Maybe I'll give them another try in the future because it was off being it was random in the middle of a week day.

We came on a weekend during lunch and decided to try their lunch buffet. It was about $13.99 so not…read morebad at all. We got in before 12 pm, and everything was pretty stocked up. We got seated right away and there was one other table in there besides us. I tried a small sample of many of the items on the buffet. I wasn't really sure what I was expecting since I'm not very familiar with Indian cuisine, but I am glad they had a buffet to give me the chance to try different items. I am glad I came here. I've tried some other spots before, but I really liked the food at this one. My favorite thing here was the naan and saag paneer. The saag paneer had a very nice flavor to it. They had plenty on their bar so I got the chance to try their tandoor chicken and chilli chicken. I can't handle spice too well, but I was able to handle the spice here. The food wasn't too spicy at all. The spice level was perfect for me. The food on the bar was more towards the cool/warm side. The chicken I tried was cool and not very warm. Next time I come, I will probably just order off the menu.

The buffet was a nice treat because I was able to sample a small amount of a variety of dishes to see which ones I would enjoyed the most. Then I was able to go back for more, or skip if not to my liking. The best part of lunch was the freshly made garlic naan. It was nice and hot right out of the oven and was included in the buffet price which was $15 for lunch. Overall, most of the dishes were great. The service was friendly. The ambiance of the restaurant was relaxed. And the price was reasonable.

Taste of India makes some of the best Indian food I have had in the US. The menu is Gujarati. Chef Paul put in quite a bit of time at Clay Pit in Murfreesboro, TN. (I am also a fan of Clay Pit but the selections are somewhat different here.) This review is for menu items. We have not yet tried the buffet. So many great and interesting items on the menu. This is going to take a while for us to delightfully work through the menu. Overall, attention to detail is obvious. Each dish is impeccably plated. From the humble basmati accompaniment to the fresh, light and chewy naan. No dish is too humble for this kitchen. The result is tasty, savory delicious food where you can taste the layers. My family has been twice and we're going tonight for a third time. Each time, we were very impressed with each dish. We also ordered all of our dishes "hot" at our last visit and that helped further highlight the savoriness of each of the dishes. Tonight, we're going to target the curries. The kitchen takes a little time to prepare your food. Don't expect to get your food within minutes. The wait is worth it. Some dishes we have enjoyed: Chicken 65 Paneer burji Vegetable pakora Biryani - lamb and shrimp Aloo methi (methi is Fenugreek) Samosas chaat (for anyone who doesn't like garbanzo beans, I think this is the cure) All I can say is go, yesterday.

When they first opened, it was so sleek and shiny - a long way from what it is today! We ate there last Sunday the 19th of April. There is duct tape EVERYWHERE trying to hold the once glossy, once white, once clean laminate in place. The booth we sat in (also cushion ripped and worn) had no less than 6 strips of duct tape holding it together. If you look around the dining room, it is on most of the joints, keeping them together. It is als VERY junky and cluttered. Went to the bathroom (another area that needs a lot of work) and there are rolling storage cabinets lining the hall making it very claustrophobic. On the way back to the table I looked behind the bar - a hodge podge of tools and caulk guns and whatever else I do not know piled in the floor. It was a mess. Corners and baseboards, chair legs and booth bases were just - dirty. Years of residue built up. Probably won't eat inside ever again, it is just so depressing, especially after knowing what it once was. We were there at prime lunch time after church and there were only three tables seated and a couple of to go customers.

Upon arrival, the exterior presentation is entirely acceptable, with the prominent Chauhan signage elegantly displayed on the corner. I must note, however, that securing a proper space for one's vehicle can prove to be quite a formidable task given the bustling street-corner geography. Yet, crossing the threshold entirely redeems the journey. The interior architecture is beautifully rich with traditional Indian decor and a sophisticated celebration of Indian culture, creating an exquisite, deeply authentic ambiance that I found immensely pleasing. A thoroughly charming server promptly attended to our table, extending a remarkably warm welcome and elegantly noting that Chef Chauhan personally ensures the staff is trained to an elite standard a dedication to excellence that I always respect. We engaged in a brief, lovely conversation, after which my companion requested a traditional hand cake, while I selected the Gol Guppa Shots, a highly curated take on traditional Indian street food. The efficiency of the kitchen was highly commendable, presenting our starters to the table within a swift ten minutes. The culinary execution was an absolute triumph remarkably fresh, beautifully balanced, and an absolute treat to the palate. All in all, the entire afternoon intermission was a complete success. The seamless combination of rich cultural charm, attentive hospitality, and flawless preparation was thoroughly delightful, and I shall most certainly be returning for future upscale refreshments
