" Sadly, my experience at Taj Mahal was not what I had hoped. The food lacked seasoning and was mostly bland. I was expecting authentic Indian dishes but found them lacking in spices. The restaurant itself was cozy, but it didn’t compensate for the lackluster meal. I won’t be returning anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an incredible dining experience at Taj Mahal. The lamb curry was cooked to perfection, with rich flavors and tender meat. The naan was freshly made and the atmosphere was cozy, which made the dinner even more enjoyable. The owner came by to check on us, and his friendliness added a personal touch to our evening. Looking forward to coming back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Taj Mahal recently and had mixed feelings. While the food was tasty, I was disappointed with the portion sizes for the price. The garlic naan was delicious, but there just wasn't enough of it. The atmosphere is nice, and the staff is friendly, but I would have liked to see more authentic dishes on the menu. Overall, it's a decent spot for Indian cuisine, just don’t expect large servings. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for incredible Indian cuisine, look no further than Taj Mahal! The chicken tikka and prawns were both seasoned to perfection. The cozy atmosphere made it a great date night spot. Only wish I lived closer, as I would be there every week for their delicious food. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Taj Mahal was a delightful experience. From the attentive service to the flavorful dishes, it was a winner all around. I had the chicken curry which was creamy and satisfying. The restaurant's atmosphere is warm and inviting. I really appreciated the complimentary tea they offered as we waited. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wasn’t a fan of my experience at Taj Mahal. While the food was decent, it didn't stand out to me compared to other Indian restaurants. The vibe was warm, and the owner came to greet us which was nice, but I expected flavor and depth in my meal that simply wasn’t there. It’s unfortunate as I’ve heard good things. " (*Curated Review*)

" I found my experience at Taj Mahal to be quite inconsistent. Some dishes were fantastic, especially the biryani, but the samosas lacked flavor. The owner was helpful and friendly, providing great service the entire time. The atmosphere was bustling, yet welcoming which adds charm to the place. Overall, it was a 50/50 experience, but I think I might come back and try a few more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)
