I have been going here since my son was 10 and also one that closed by the same owners on the south side......

I'm not a picky or highly critical eater whatsoever. But I've eaten at Indian restaurants in many places in Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Oklahoma, New England, England, etc., and...

Best Indian Food in Austin 11/11/2009

This is a great indian food restaurant. They have great curries, fresh nan bread, a real tandoori pit, and good sized portions. The best thing on the menu is Chicken Makhni. The buffet is a little pricey and not spicey enough for my taste, but their menu items are delicious. I've eaten here at least 20 times in the last year. Pros: Great Indian Food Cons: Buffet a little pricey, could be spicier more

My wife an I have been going to Taj Palace since we moved to austin in 1995. We've tried others in town, but nothing compares in consistency, flavor and friendly staff. We love to order off the menu and they are always happy to accomodate us. Want things spicy, just ask. Want things mild, just ask. Want chick peas in masala, or potatoes in sag, just ask. These guys rock, ddanenfelzer Pros: Best Indian this side of the Pacific more

was good, is good 11/10/2009

I've been going to Taj Palace for years. I moved away for a few years, but recently came back--and tried Taj Palace again, and it's still great. Its always been consistent and delicious. It's better than most of the Indian food you can get in Austin and even New York, for that matter. Pros: great, traditional Indian food more

Consistently good food 11/4/2009

My favorite place for the that special Indian flavor. I have been going to the Taj Palace buffet regularly for the past year and can say this place is fantastic! Yes, the buffet is somewhat small. However, this enables Taj Palace to replete their buffet with consistently good food. I have been to many others here in Austin, thus far none beat Taj Palace for yummieness! more

TERRIBLE RESTAURANT I HAVE EVER BEEN TO IN MY LIFE... 12/31/2008

This was the worst experience in my life..! Oh boy! what a hopeless buffet they had for the New Year's eve (31st Dec 2008). Food is worst and above it, damn expensive. The place is terrible and very bad service. Let me just put it this way, please, please, please... for God sake, avoid it. I bet you, this could be one of the worst buffet for you as well. PLEASE KEEP AWAY. Pros: NOTHING TO MENTION Cons: EVERYTHING more

great lunch buffet! 11/26/2008

This restaurant has a great lunch buffet with both vegetarian and meat specialities. I love the fried spinach and the tandoori chicken. The lentil soup is also to die for and the buffet is all you can eat. more

Really enjoyed the excellent buffet for weekend lunch! 7/29/2008

I'm surprised to see the negative reviews for the buffet. I ate there for lunch about 2 weeks ago on a weekend and it was delicious. There was a large variety (7-8 warm items) plus pakoras, samosas and an entire separate table of cold items like fruits, salads, desserts and raitas. The manager was very helpful in explaining what some dishes I am unfamiliar with were. And one customer requested more paneer in the Saag Paneer and they immediately ran to get more...some of us tend to pick it out! Pros: variety and value of lunch buffet, nicer inside than it looks from the outside Cons: easy parking and access from IH 35 more

I thought it was a great value - for the lunch buffet our total bill was maybe $25 for 2 and we left stuffed! There was plenty of meat. I am not sure how much the dinner buffet costs but I'm sure it's a bit more. Still the quality and atmosphere would make it worth more at dinner. There is a coupon on their website too.

EXPENSIVE!!!!!!! Value your $$$ eat somewhere else. 6/15/2008

My first time there. Definitely the LAST!! The plates were dirty. The service was good for some but bad for me as the lady turned up several times to ask if everything was ok....it became irritating after a while. Specially when we were towards the end of our meal. It was more interruption. The food was warm, clean & tasted average. Keema naan didnt have ANY keema in it, maybe some thinly sliced salami or something but it didnt taste anything like keema. We ordered 2 dishes which as per the menu card were served with side dishes of rice. The lady who took the order said that they (Taj Palace) only gave 1 complimentary rice per table!!! What sort of a rule is that?! She asked us to order bread instead. We were paying for the food we got. There was nothing complimentary!!!! The ambience was noisy. We could hear the kitchen noise, dishes clanking, spoons being thrown all over through out. When the guy came to pick up our dishes he gave me a headache. Banged all of them right in front of me..all the plates & spooons...ugh was so loud!!! more
