"I happened to be in Fort Wayne after MANY years decided to take advantage of Taj Mahal being close to my appointment. I used Door Dash, so I didn't see the restaurant in person. Using that delivery service made it a little more expensive, but it seemed easier to use than the delivery on the restaurant's website. The restaurant itself had a delivery charge online. Door Dash did not have a delivery fee but had other fees. Would have paid for the convenience either way. Just no way around that. I didn't even think to look at GrubHub until now. My order was prepared quickly was in my hands in less than 40 minutes from the time I hit enter. Everything was packed well made it home over an hour away with no leaks. It was all still hot fresh. I may have overdid it just a little, but I have no good Indian food near me wanted lots of leftovers. I ordered pappad, naan, tandoori roti which is a sourdough I hadn't tried before, two orders of vegetable pakora, two orders of vegetable samosas. To my surprise, they also had Punjabi Bhaji, so I got that, too. Asked for medium it was plenty spicy. Not bland like a lot of places when you ask for that level of spice. It did turn out I had a small box of rice with my entree as well as three chutneys. Since I wasn't sure what would be included, I also ordered an extra order of large rice a mint chutney. The extra rice does help make the meal stretch. The cup of chutney was a little overpriced at $2.99 but worth having because it is my favorite of the three. The mint sweet chutneys were as expected. The spicier red chutney with onion was slightly different than what I've had elsewhere but I ate it all. Yum! It wasn't so hot that it was inedible like some restaurants. My only complaint would be that for the amount of pakora samosas I got, I would have expected a bit more chutney to be included. This was quite a feast. Everything was really delicious! Not quite as good maybe as Shalimar India Palace in Indy once were but a definite close second. Prices were mostly reasonable. The entree was especially higher than I expected but inflation. It would cost far more to buy the ingredients to make all of this at home, it wouldn't be as convenient nor as good. If I knew how to make all of this, I wouldn't need a restaurant. It has been far too long since I had Indian food. My only regret is not having more now. I also wish I'd gotten some garlic naan. All in all, I would return if the opportunity arose. I would prefer to dine in next time. I wasn't able to make special requests on DD. You can call the restaurant, but I really was crunched for time. My Dasher, Grace, had heard good things about Taj Mahal and was right. Go check it out. I'm glad I treated myself. I could eat this every day if I had the budget were close by. This made my day. Well, few days. Wink."

So very disappointing...we ate here two nights .. Did not want to leave a negative review but dinners were just plain bad...tasteless.. and a 45 minute wait both times
Johnny
i've literally been waiting in this place for about 30 minutes and it took me 15 minutes to get to this place and I still don't have my food really I don't give a **** how busy you are it doesn't matter. You should be able to crank out dishes and get me my food.
Tillie
Always happy to have their food. I've never had anything but an exceptional experience via take out or dine in. I don't even live in Fort Wayne but I go there specifically for their food. Excellent food and excellent service. Huge fan of their veggie pakora and saag paneer. View menu
Rees
Service was awful, didn't ask if we wanted anything to drink and didn't come back until our food came, 35 minute wait when we were the only people in the restaurant. I asked for the hottest level of spice, i don't know if I should be offended being white, but the dish came with absolute no spice. Felt disrespected the entire time. Do take out or delivery. Awful experience dining in

We have been going to the Taj Mahal regularly for the past 6 years at least. It all started with a recommendation from my sister in law and it's been one of the best recommendations we've ever gotten. The service is always friendly and fast, the food is delicious and cooked to order, and I've never had a complaint about cleanliness even in the bathrooms. I've eaten at Indian restaurants in Toledo, OH, Atlanta, GA, Queenstown, New Zealand and Auckland, New Zealand and probably a few others that weren't even worth remembering trying to find cuisine that matched the flavor and quality and have not been able to come even close.

My daughter and I have been wanting to try Indian food, so we came here yesterday for lunch. The lady that greeted us was cordial. Pointed at a booth for us to be seated. The atmosphere looked different from some of the old photos I've seen. Didn't have the most authentic Indian feel. Two ladies took care of us. They did a great job keeping drinks refilled. All good was brought out in a timely manner. We tried vegetable pakora and aloo tiki for appetizer. Both were really delicious. Served with two sauces. A mint sauce and a brown sauce. My daughter had chicken curry, and I had paneer masala. All good, mild spicy. I'd like to try more! View menu

I was craving for Indian food and this was close by with good reviews. Before placing the order, I checked with the staff about their speciality. She was like we do everything the BEST. Placed order and waited for an hour. Ordered : Chicken Biriyani Parotta and Butter Chicken Chicken Biriyani tasted like tomato rice with chicken pieces. Parotta was more like thin Chapathi slices and Butter chicken was so sour and high on preservatives. I couldn't eat more than a spoon and just left it. Very unsatisfied and horrible experience. One of the staff checked if we wanted to pack the gravy as we hardly ate, I told her how it tasted. To my surprise she said people love this. I really pity their custo...

This is the only Indian restaurant in the Fort Wayne area in my opinion as the other one up North I have never tried nor have the desire based on other reviews. I feel that this restaurant has stepped up the game over the past few years and have improved since the pandemic. We were here over Easter for lunch and was happy to report that they have wonderful service and the food comes out quick. I ordered the Non-Veg Thali (Traditional indian meal served in silver platter with chicken pakora, lamb curry, chicken curry, tandoori chicken, dal, rice, raitha, naan and kheer as dessert) which is a wonderful blend of different food off the menu. The curry was not too spicy unless you request it and...
