My family is a huge fan of Indian food, and this place definitely made the cut. The paper dosai is amazing, and we loved the curry’s we’ve tried this far. This was only our first time here, but I’m sure it’s going to be a weekly staple!

Our family just loves this place. The owners are wonderful and treat us special every visit. The food is great and very authentic. Love the Naan bread and my favorite dish is the lamb Vindaloo and my wife loves the mugli chicken. They have soup called samber which is outrageous. Personally we think it’s the best Indian in Cleveland. Love it?!

My husband and I go for the lunch buffet occasionally. The food is delicious! I am not savvy when it comes to Indian cuisine, however, and this place doesn’t really help you learn what you are eating. I dont know what most things are on the buffet. That being said, I am pretty adventurous and the buffet set up allows you to try a little bit of this and a little bit of that. They serve goat which has a lot of bones etc. In it. The meat tastes great, but not a fan of all the bones. The service is not stellar, but adequate, and the décor is cheap and old.

My wife and I have been eating here on the weekends at the buffet for a couple of years. First heard about this place on Unilocal.We love it. My wife loves to make her own stuffed Dosa from all the vegetarian dishes. The Chicken Tikka Masala is my favorite. They change the buffet for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day so we make sure to go on those days each year. We eat here at least twice a month. The owner is very friendly. Their Tandoori Chicken is excellent.

I went to this place once during lunch buffet and the food was just okay. The gravy’s were too watery making the quality not up to standards of a quality Indian restaurant.

I have eaten here many times, both for the buffet at lunch, and dinner. I have enjoyed everything I’ve ever tried. The buffet is great for everyone, including vegetarians. It’s also a great opportunity to try new things, for those that tend to find something they like, and stick to it. They have a spicy vegetable soup on the buffet called sambar. It’s not on the dinner menu, but can be ordered at any time. It’s my favorite and super delicious on a cold day.

Our family gets take out from this restaurant all the time, they know my dad on a first name basis. And 99.9% of the time our order is always the same, butter chicken extra spicy and garlic naan. However today when my dad called to place the order and picked it up without checking because we order the same thing every time. When he came home and we were about to eat, noticed they gave us plain naan instead of garlic naan which is what we ordered. When my dad called to notify the restaurant, they turned it around and made it his fault stating he never said garlic. Seriously, what kind of establishment blames their customer? And even if it was an oversight, why not offer to fix the problem instead of arguing with the customer. Clearly our business is not important to you, don’t worry we will find another restaurant to order from, one that isn’t rude and disrespectful. Typical FOB mentality.

Very convenient for meal before or after a movie. I enjoyed the lamb curry. The portions were generous I think for an Indian restaurant and price was average. I prefer saffron patch but this is a good choice if i happen to be in this part of town. It’s not particularly memorable but the people were nice and the food was prepared quickly.

Another day and yet another review by me of another Indian restaurant in the Cleveland area… hmmm seems like I see a trend in my eating choices… :) We have not tried the buffet yet, but have been there for dinner several times. The food is very good but it took a bit of convincing for the server lady to believe that we wanted American Hot spice. Finally she agreed and we loved it. The service is a bit off. Not much personality. Also the restaurant seems pretty empty most times, which is a shame because the food is really good.

I stopped in to grab some dinner on Saturday 11⁄21 and received nothing but amazing service and high quality food. The Vegetable Samosas were perfect. The chicken Tikka Massalla was perfect. The Mango Lassi was even better! Amazing. Thank you!

Dinner is expensive. Each dish is around $ 11.95 and above which is quite high. The rice in the Chicken biryani was sticking together. Maybe will try the $ 8.99 lunch buffet the next time. Friendly owner who loves to talk.

Let me start by saying I will be going back. First, we arrived at around 5:30 and the place was empty. As time passed more folks showed up. I also noticed that they have carry out. We ordered some apps, vedge and meat samosa’ and chicken ‘pakor’ not sure of the spelling. All were excellent. For the mains, I ordered Butter Chicken(which is why this is a 3 and not a 4 star rating). It tasted like they had warmed up some caned soup and poured it over the chicken. No spice, no seasoning… just tomato. Worst I have ever had, will not eat it again and would not recommend it. But there is a bright side… Wife had Chicken Korma, daughter had Chicken Biryani and other daughter had a Jalfrezi. All of these were not quite what I am used to from a robust flavor perspective, but they were all very good. As an example, Korma is usually on the sweet side and has a good hint coconut milk. Not in this case, but it was still really good. By themselves this could be a 4 star experience, but that dang butter chicken just sucked the life out of the stars.

The quality of the buffet food here is better than all the Indian take out places around, plus its cheaper and its a buffet! Don’t come here at night it cost more and it’s not a buffet.

The Best Indian Food in the Cleveland area! I eat here at least once a month. The service is always great and the staff is extremely friendly. Lamb dishes are loaded with lamb and very tasty! Order a Mango Lassi(they use Rose water).

I have been eating here for years. Excellent food and value. I once took an Indian friend from out of town here and he said it was the best buffet he ever had. Nice owner and great speedy service. $ 10 for lunch Buffett and I walk out in a better place than they are after eating about $ 50 in goat, chicken and naan. Go early around 11:30. It’s fresh and full. Load up and eat like your being paid!

3.5 stars — I went to the Taj India Palace last weekend and had buffet with a number of friends from church. Having loaded up the metal trays with piles of curry, naan, pakora, and other sundries, we were treated back at the table with fresh Dosa, complimentary. While I can’t speak to whether their food is more bangladeshi or indian, I will say that the price point, it’s a reasonably good deal compared to other south asian restaurants in the area. Décor is sparse, but service friendly and with a bit of tongue in cheek humor. When our party moved to pay singly, the cashier’s first move was to subtly, wryly offer to put it all on one card. :) The twinkle in the eye was accompanied by a pause as the card hovered over his credit card reader, and he then added, «only kidding…» To the place’s credit a number of my meal-mates had mentioned that a number of their south asian colleagues preferred this place for their Cleveland options.

Place seems almost abandoned when you first come in; we got there early for dinner. Inside is pretty spacious and I imagine they have nights when the place is full, because the food is pretty good and sans other Indian food variety in the area this is a pretty good option. We tried their appetizer sample platter. Beware of the deep fried pepper! I thought it was a green bean and bit into it. Oh boy! It’s a chili pepper and one of the spiciest yet! Took me a while to be able to taste anything else again that evening. The butter chicken, which is my favorite Indian dish, is so-so; I’ve definitely had better. But the shrimp dish was excellent and the naan is very fresh. I would definitely come back when I feel a craving for Indian food and try the other menu items.

On the weekends Taj India Palace has a buffet until 3. It has a great mix of North and South Indian foods, so there’s meat and vegetarian dishes. They also give each customer an order of masala dosa with your meal! I love masala dosas! Dosas are thin crêpe-like pancakes wrapped around potatoes that have been cooked with delicious spices. The complementary dosa is a bit smaller than regular dosas normally are, but yummy nonetheless. I can’t complain, I’m getting dosa, and a buffet of food for a decent price. The place is great for large groups, and you never have to worry about waiting for a table. The workers are nice, and can answer any questions you have. I’ve been here multiple times for the buffet, so I will definitely be back for more!

Since I wrote my first review, I’ve been to Taj at least four times. I really love the food here! It’s not too spicy, so I can enjoy the intricate flavors that are put into each dish. Today, several of my co-workers and I went to Taj for the lunch buffet. It costs $ 9.80 and they serve you water. If you want a drink, sure, you can order one, but typically, you walk in, you are greeted and asked, «How many», and guided to head straight to the buffet. The first thing you’re going to see at the lunch buffet is Tandoori Chicken. This is marinated chicken on the bone that’s red in color. It tastes pretty good, but I usually don’t get this. The next dish is Chicken Tikka Masala. This is chunks of boneless chicken breast mixed with a butter, tomato, and lots of herbs sauce. It is one of my favorite dishes on the buffet. There are approximately 14 dishes(3 meat, 6 veggie, 3 bread, and 2 rice). There’s the typical Indian bread(Naan), plus little yummy Indian pancakes(Khana) that are really tasty and great to dip in the various sauces that are in each dish. Today, they served curried cauliflower and potatoes, which was just okay. The rock star of today’s buffet was the curried spinach with peas and carrots. I absolutely loved the taste of this dish and I wanted more. Heck, I want some right now! I also got some yellow rice, some red chutney(for a little extra kick), some curried chick peas, and a curried corn dish that reminded me of good old creamed corn. These dishes were okay, but all I really wanted is the Chicken Tikka(especially the sauce!), the bread, and the spinach dish. The food is not too spicy, but if you like spice, you can add some hot chutney to increase the heat. Or you can order something spicy from the kitchen. I love the food here. LOVEIT!
