"What is going on Royal Taj? my last review was 3 years ago and it was a definite 5 star. But apparently not anymore. I was really happy with the indoor dining reopening post covid and we have been back 3 times now. Its a slow decline. Food quality is questionable and the cost is staggering. Watered down flavorless Tika Masala, under cooked Naan, miniature samosas, bland saag paneer. Then the for desert a $75.00 bill. Im bumming out as we were regulars and I mentioned that the food was not up to par and he seemed really uninterested. The Taj is falling. That place in Scotts Valley isnt any better. So Santa Cruz is without good Indian Food. Santa Cruz is a culinary waste land."
