Taj Mahal Indian Cuisine

Let me first say about the person who was there by himself when we went here last week. He was amazing!! He was handling the entire restaurant by himself. All the others apparently didn’t come because of a festival they had. He was all smiles and attended the customers wonderfully. So kuddos to him. I didn’t even get a chance to get his name! Now to the restaurant. Small cute place. Apparently been a year since they opened. Ordered butter chicken, chicken curry and naan. Also ordered tandoori chicken and mix grill platter but as you can see you cannot tell the difference lol. It was more saucy than dry. I know for a fact that tandooris or mix grill are more towards the dry side. All the food tasted mediocre. I don’t know if I’ll go back there again A note to the person who schedules shifts: make sure there are minimum 2 people working the front. I understand there is festival and all but he is a human too. I’m sure he didn’t mind working by himself. He was amazing. Always smiling. But if you are working at a place expect to miss few holidays or else close the restaurant for that day.

Solid Indian food the I have to this this place has one of the best chicken tandoori well worth it to get that. The tikka masala is solid but I had better but over all a good place with good customer service.

I recently dined at Taj Mahal Indian Cuisine and decided to try the vegetarian platter. The dish was flavorful, but I found that the spice level was milder than expected—certainly not as bold as I had hoped for an Indian restaurant. On a positive note, both the lassi and chai were delightful, with just the right balance of sweetness and richness. Overall, a good experience, but if you're looking for something more spicy, you might want to ask for extra heat next time.

Our kids took us here on a slow Monday afternoon (we were the only customers in the place). The atmosphere was so chill, with a great variety of music softly playing. Our host was beyond friendly and attentive. The pre-entree papadum and chutneys were excellent, as was the garlic naan we ordered with the meal. I had the chicken tikka masala and it was amazing; so many subtle accents, large chunks of tender meat, and I was even blown away by the basmati rice. So fluffy. There was plenty to take home. As we finished, our host brought a dish to share of rice pudding, which was positively delicious, with all that flavor subtlety good Indian food is known for. We live on the other side of town, but we’ll be back.

Nice new venue with mainly Indian cuisine with a touch of Nepalese and other Asian dishes. We were a group of 5 and got quickly seated for lunch on a Friday. The menu had a lot of selection and we enjoyed everyone's dishes. We enjoyed the little treat after our meals that reminded me of rice pudding. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Would go again!

Lovely spice, yum! Best veggie samosas I have ever had. Also had the Daal Tarka for the first time and it was amazing! Very fast service! We will definitely order here again. Thanks you so much.

Went on a Wednesday at 6pm. No other customers, but immediately greeted by a very nice man. Loved that they had some more uncommon Indian dishes for me to try and it was delicious. Good portion size for me and my husband. Very good service. 2 other customers did come in late.

Stopped in for an early dinner on a Saturday. They dropped off a basket of papadum and some chutneys before taking my order. The sweet chutney and mint chutney were both great, but I wasn't a huge fan of the tomato and onion one. The chunks were a bit too large to easily work with the chip-like papadum. I went with lamb in a spicy tomato and chile base curry, I think the menu called it Karahi. I ordered it Indian hot; it was spicy, but not burn your face off hot, more of a slight perspiration level of hot. It came with a bowl of basmati, a bit more than needed for the serving size. The lamb was good, though there was a lot more curry than meat. I also put in an order of paratha. It came out quite large and very thin, with nice flaky layers and texture to the dough, with a nice whole wheat flavor that wasn't overpowered by the ghee. I usually only see naan and maybe roti as options at Indian/Nepali places, so I was excited to try their paratha. By far, the best Indian flat bread I've had in Colorado. I would come back just for the paratha. Overall, I'm happy I tried this restaurant. Denver doesn't have much choice when it comes to Indian food, so it's nice to know there are more options if I drive a bit. I'll try the vindaloo next time and see if their version of a classic South Indian dish can hit the hotness levels I'm hoping for. Worst case, I get to eat that paratha again.
