Honestly, I had never had Indian cuisine in my entire life, and this was actually amazing. My girlfriend and I decided to go on a whim to try something new that we've never done before, and this was perfect. It was pretty empty dinner time on a Sunday night, but the waiter, who I believe is the owner, was amazing. He stood with us, talked about the meals, and even informed us of the proper way to eat our meals. They were wonderfully seasoned and filled us right up. I truly am not a fan of spicy food, but this spicy food is worth it!
The only true complaint I have is the temperature of the restaurant. Definitely seems like they don't have a central A/C system, and when you're eating spicy food, it'd be nice to be in a cooler environment. Other than that, 10/10, will definitely come again!!
Very quiet on a Saturday night at dinner time. Service was very good, with our waiter explaining the different dishes and spice levels. We started with a cracker like bread made from lentils with 2 dipping sauces, a spicy (green) and a sweet (red). We shared the lamb curry with basmati rice and a garlic naan. Curry sauce was flavorful but lamb was overcooked. The dish had a few small pieces of carrots and peppers. Garlic naan was enjoyable but basic.
Most Orlando restaurants have the AC on "meat locker"! This was actually too warm for me. Felt like no AC.
Ok total foodie here! Yep that’s me
I don’t leave reviews unless the quality and the service is worth my time.
From the time I approached the building until the moment I left. I have not one bad thing to say.
There was a very friendly gentlemen that came outside to greet me as I looked over the menu outside. This definitely encouraged me to enter. When I entered it was very clean (A+)
The waiter seated me and assured me that he would assist in anyway if I needed. And he did
My food selections did not disappoint my pallet was pleased!
I ordered the Aalo Saag and Lamb Balki
w/garlic naan and HOLY HOLY IS THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY the lamb was cooked with perfection super tender and well simmered and saturated in all of the spices DIVINE!
I recommend 100% I will definitely be back to visit
Oh and yes I ordered my husband the bitter chicken and he had not one complaint
First time here. Small diner setting. They were not crowded on a Saturday night which was awesome. Wait staff was very friendly and suggested a few items for me to try. I love Indian food. Portion sizes were smaller than I expected for the price. O-town is all about that bottom line. The rice was excellently prepared. Garlic naan bread came out delicious.

If you're looking for genuinely delicious Indian food in the I-Drive / Universal area - this is the place to go! I came in not knowing exactly what I wanted - I basically told him I was stuck choosing between chicken tikka masala and a biryani (my favorite traditional meal) - and after a polite conversation with the owner, he knew exactly what to do! After prompt delivery of a tasty Taj Mahal beer and some fresh garlic naan, out walks this BEAUTY of a sunset-colored biryani - and you could smell that tikka masala influence before it even got to the table! Aside from how amazing it looked and smelled, I could not have asked for a better blend of my two favorite Indian dishes. The spice level was perfect, the chicken was tender, and the aroma was just shy of intoxicating - and on a side note the consistency of their raita is perfect, not too runny!! Apart from the amazing cuisine I was about to indulge myself in, the service was awesome. From the owner down to the kitchen staff, everybody was so kind and so accommodating! On the way out, the owner caught me and told me to wait - he rushed back inside and grabbed a bottle of water for me, saying it was necessary for me to have water to accompany my leftovers. In a world of tired and burnt out restaurant staff, you don't see an act of service like that too often anymore and I'm very grateful for that consideration!
Bottom line, if you're in Orlando and you're on the prowl for some good food - PLEASE make the trip, you won't regret it!
Old school Indian restaurant. The Naan was perfect and the curry was delicious!
Even better than the food in Tabla and with much lower service charge. Must visit!
Just eaten at the Taj Mahal and my wife and I are very happy with the experience.
Our main server, Perry, was excellent - there when we needed him but he didn’t come to the table too often. The person bringing our food, boxes and the check was great too.
I’m vegetarian and I had a good choice of dishes and my non-vegetarian wife was very happy with her lamb dish.
Definitely can recommend this restaurant and we would eat here again when we are next in town
The BEST food and the BEST service!!! The butter chicken was phenomenal, and I don’t think I’ve ever had better service at a restaurant. The waiter and the owner were some of the kindest people, and we felt so welcome. My husband wasn’t sure about trying Indian food, but he said this was one of the top 5 meals he’s ever had. We’re sad we don’t live close enough to go here all the time. This is a must-try for Orlando!!!
Taj Mahal Restaurant's food is consistently delicious and of high quality. You can always expect a fantastic eating experience whether you're a regular or a first-time visitor.
Lovely food and awesome service.
The service at the Indian restaurant was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic dining experience. The aroma of spices filled the air, enticing my taste buds from the moment I walked in.
Each dish was a culinary masterpiece, beautifully presented and bursting with vibrant colors and flavors.
Food was just delicious!! We ordered a Goat Biryani and Butter chicken. It was so good and we stepped out with a happy tummy. Must say, their service & ambience was also very good. Worth the price!
Definitely worth a place to visit! The food is amazing. We actually had a very tiring day and ended up coming just for tea. The owner was so kind to make us a big cup of tea. It was so kind! We ended up ordering food as well and it was beyond delicious.
The server was so courteous.
The staff at Taj Mahal Orlando took great care to ensure that our dining experience was memorable. They paid attention to every detail, making us feel like valued guests.
