Reviews of Taj Mahal Restaurant
from GoogleWe went for the Wednesday dinner buffet, because we wanted to try this place out. The food were exceptional and flavorful. Its not too spicy or strong in flavor! The owners were very kind and attentive! We will definitely comeback if we are craving for good Indian food. Note: order the Mango Lassi and Chai 👌
We went to have dinner and the sharing plates are pretty big! We had an appetizer, four main dishes and naan for four people and it was more than enough! We even took some home! Also, you need to try their masala chai 10/10 ✨ Naresh was super helpful and efficient! Great service, good food, amazing price and clean restaurant!
75 out of 5 stars!!! Thankfully, a good friend introduced me to this Indian culinary gem, which has been a long-standing family-run staple in Calgary. The service is exceptional, and is only surpassed by the incredible food - delicious and rich with a depth of flavours! I look forward to coming back again and again!! Side note - there is parking in the back.
I had a fantastic buffet experience at Taj Mahal Restaurant. Plenty variety of dishes. The food was absolutely delicious, full of rich flavors and beautifully presented. Every dish i tried reflected high quality and authentic taste. The atmosphere of the restaurant is elegant and welcoming, making it perfect for both a relaxed meal and a special occasion. A Good things, restaurant has parking facility as well. I will visit again…
We tried the dinner buffet, and it was excellent value for the price. There were plenty of delicious vegetarian options, including appetizers, fresh salads, chaat, a variety of curries, rice, pickles, and tasty desserts. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The restaurant was clean, the staff were very friendly and welcoming, and it wasn't too busy, making for a relaxed dining experience. If you're looking for a good Indian buffet in Calgary, I highly recommend Taj Mahal Restaurant!
They served delicious food. The owners are also very sweet.
My family goes here from time to time for Wednesday dinner buffet, and consistency is this Indian buffet's hallmark. It does not offer the biggest selection of dishes in the city, and they do not seem to change up the kinds of dishes (outside of some vegetable items) from week to week, but the food is very delicious. Meat-wise, they offer beef curry, butter chicken, tandoori chicken, and my favorite, fish pakora. Vegetarian-focused offerings often include cauliflower, potato, spinach, paneer, and dal dishes. And the dessert pickings (fresh fruit, gulab jamun, jalebi, kheer) and sides/condiments are pretty good. On top of everything, staff are welcoming and the service is very attentive. Taj Mahal Restaurant's Wednesday dinner buffet is an excellent dining experience, and provides great value at $25 per person.
I ordered pickup from this restaurant on Thursday at around 8:15 PM. I ordered butter naan, chicken gravy, and chicken biryani. Unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. The chicken in both dishes tasted stale, the gravy was unpleasant, and even the butter naan seemed old and stale. The quality of the food was far below what I expected. Based on my experience, I would not recommend ordering from this restaurant. I believe the food quality and hygiene standards should be reviewed, and I hope the appropriate health authorities inspect the restaurant to ensure it is meeting the required standards.
Best Buffet I have ever had! Amazing family run restaurant. The buffet Wednesdays are must go! Was visiting from Vancouver and we went there twice. Regular menu is great and authentic food! My entire family enjoyed the whole experience. The staff is amazing and welcoming. A lot of variety and great atmosphere
My wife and I visited Taj Mahal today, and we came away very impressed. The food was absolutely fantastic. Every dish was packed with flavor, and the portion sizes were generous. Our waitress was attentive and friendly without being overbearing, which made for a very pleasant dining experience. Great food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will undoubtedly be returning. Highly recommended!
