Taj Mahal L’Inde

Décor Inside is leopard print wallpaper red velvet benched and red chandelier. Usually that would be a red flag in my book but the place is fantastic. They actually know how to make a samosa properly Unlike some in this area. Butter chicken is awesome and nan is to everyone else I was with enjoyed their dishes as well.

I don’t often eat Indian but this was a nice restaurant with unique décor and we had a pleasant time. The naan bread was nice and crispy, the butter chicken was tasty and a good amount of spicy in other dishes

Excellent! Cuisine traditionnelle et service courtois. Un restaurant indien à fréquenter régulièrement.
Ambiance très agréable.

2^nd time ordering delivery from here, 1 word: FANTABULOUS! Amazing Indian food, around 40 $ for 2 people to eat it’s affordable especially for the portions. (Easily could feed 3 hungry adults with one combo for 2 or 2 main dishes with polao rice which would each add up to about 40 $). Delivery took about an hour but so worth it! Absolutely must have their nan bread it is perfect with every dish and every sauce! Can’t wait to go eat in-​house ‘cuz it’s byow and the food is fantastic and hot delivery so it can only be better there! So far staff seem pretty polite and friendly. Definitely recommend this place!

Le restaurant a une ambiance plus ou moins typique de l’Inde. Le service est affreusement long et aucun des serveurs n’avaient le sourire. Nous avons patienté légèrement plus d’une heure à avoir nos repas et nous avons même dû demander à faire remplir nos verres d’eau. Les saveurs étaient présentes, mais rien de super. Arrivé pour payer, le serveur me chargeait des trucs que je n’avais pas commander et il a refait ma facture à deux reprises. Je né retournerai pas à ce restaurant pour plusieurs des raisons mentionné ci-​haut, mais la principale raison est qu’au coin de Verdun et 3e Avenue, il y a un fabuleux restaurant Indien. C’est un réel restaurant familial et cette famille est super joviale. Rien à voir avec ce soit disant Taj Mahal.
The restaurant has an atmosphere more or less typical of India. The service is terribly long and no servers were smiling. We waited slightly more than an hour to have our meals and we even had to ask to fill our glasses of water. The flavors were there, but nothing great. Came to pay, the server charged me things that I did not ordered and he redid my bill twice. I will not return to this restaurant for several reasons mentioned above, but the main reason is that at the corner of 3^rd Avenue and Verdun, there is a fabulous Indian restaurant. It is a real family restaurant and this family is super cheerful. Nothing to do with this so-​called Taj Mahal.

Good solid Indian
Butter chicken is there highlight
Prices are good especially if you order takeout combos for 1 person turns out you ll have enough for 2 hungry men, add maybe a side order and you’re good to go for 2 under 30 $

Belle trouvaille que ce restaurant. Lors de l’anniversaire d’un membre de la famille, nous sommes allé à ce restaurant indien ou nous pouvions apporter notre vin. Il a été possible d’obtenir un prix de groupe. Des plats de différentes nourritures ont été apportés sur les tables. Poulet au beurre, tandoori, plats végétariens, pain NAAN etc. Tout était chaud et satisfaisant. Le service fut très professionnel. C’est un restaurant de grandeur moyenne avec une décoration simple d’inspiration indienne mais nous sommes loin du Taj Mahal. J’y retourne c’est sur.

Ordered some chicken Bhoona and curried vegetables for delivery. Pros: delivery time was reasonable, delivery man was polite and friendly, vegetables were fresh, not frozen. Cons: Sauces were not particularly flavorful or at all spicy, despite being listed as moderately spicy and portions were small (for about 20 $ before tax, I got approximately ½ a chicken breast and less than 2 cups of cooked vegetables, between the 2 dishes). Meh is exactly right

I was with my gilfriend, we came on Monday around 9pm. Pretty much most of the restaurants nearby were closed, so kudos to this place.
The deco is great, quite unusually beautiful for an indian restaurant. Service was fast and friendly. We had a jaifrazi and khaima (not sure), and boy it was quite spicy (the waiter told us)!!
Overall great place.

my SO and I went there on a whim as we were walking around the Verdun area! We love Indian food and were excited to discover this place.
First and foremost: they had two groups of 8 having dinner that night. I know they were groups of 8 because it took 1 hour 45 minutes for our food to arrive due to a simply terrible service. so yes, I had the time to count. They could have brought us some bread… or SOMETHING, or told us about the delay, but we were ignored the whole time. I hoped that the appalling delay would be compensated by great flavor. I am reading the other reviews here and I’m confused: did you know butter chicken should not taste like sugar was dropped in it, or have you just skipped on the authentic Indian your whole life? I don’t mean to sound pretentious (oh well…) but the flavor was not there, the food tasted like something I could have made in my slow cooker at home, but LESS flavorful. So disappointed!
On the flip side, the Samosa I had as an appetizer was good! So that earns you a star. And a pity star. Because I dislike feeling like I HAVE to write a bad review, but you guys need to step up your service and food game.

Excellent food and service for a BYOW, I was very impressed. We decided to split one of their combination menus for two and let me tell you for a big eater I was having a hard time finishing the food in front of me ! Best mulligatawny soup I’ve ever had and the curries phenomenal.
Definitely a gem in Verdun’s wellington neighbourhood… which is starting to get pretty up and coming ! In a nutshell, great food, great service, great décor and great prices… what more can you ask for? I will be back to this place !!! Bravo !

Love, love, loved it. Great Indian food… maybe the best I’ve ever had. Nothing we tasted amond 6 – 7 dishes wasn’t A+. Can’t say enough good things about their food. Décor was nice even though the place doesn’t look like much from outside and the area is sort of run-​down. I highly recommend it. Well done guys, keep it up! We’ll be back and ordering take-​out too, do doubt. Kudos.

This is the first time, I actually had a good Dahl soup, it tasted homemade, with lemon and just the right balance of salt and spices. When I was homesick, I had eaten at many Indian restaurants all over New York City and Jersey, the Dahl soup was not as good as the one at this restaurant. The Indian salad was excellent, lots of onions but not too strong, lots of variety and a beautiful presentation. The Chana was decent, the chick peas were soft and it had flavor but not too spicy. This is an exceptional Indian restaurant in Montréal, don’t bother to go to parc-​extension for your Indian food.

Anciennement connu sous le nom du Salon Rouge, le Tajmahal L’Inde est le nouveau resto qui a pris sa place. Nouveau proprio, nouvelle bouffe et semi nouveau concept. La plupart du décor est le même que l’original, à l’exception de quelques affiches et de la musique d’ambiance.
Avant de vous y rendre, n’oubliez pas de passer par la SAQ ou bien un dépanneur pour une bouteille de vin ou une caisse de bière. C’est un BYO mais ça n’est pas vraiment publicisé. Côté bouffe, c’est de l’indien typique et ils ont une bonne variété de plats et de combinaisons pour 2 à 4 personnes. Ils ont aussi des spéciaux pour le lunch que j’espère essayer bientôt.
Mon coup de cœur était le poulet aux épinards et la petite sauce/​chutney qui venait avec les papadums. Le reste était vraiment juste correct, mais rien de plus. J’aurais voulu des plats un peu plus épicés avec plus de piquant, et les samosa me donnaient l’impression d’être pré fait ailleurs et non sur place. Ça n’est pas le meilleur indien en ville, mais pour Verdun, c’est pas pire.

I went here with a friend who had a gift certificate and we figured we’d give it a go. This place used to be called the Salon Rouge, which I believe used to be a French cuisine restaurant… but that closed down in record time, even for the typical short restaurant life span in Verdun. Next thing you know, the Taj Mahal pops up in it’s place. Except they didn’t change anything but the sign… so don’t let the gaudy Moulin Rouge-​style décor throw you off, I swear it’s Indian food and not a red light district brothel.
They offer a pretty good selection of appetizers, single dishes and combo meals for 1 or 2 people in both meat and veggie options, all priced very reasonably. Everything I had (veg) was tasty and my friend said the butter chicken was up to par in her books, although just short of mindblowing. My only complaint is the naan bread. They make the slightly sweetened variation of it, which was still good, but I prefer plain naan. However, a redeeming factor and saving grace was their cheese naan… I’m a sucker for fromage.
The staff were super friendly and attentive, like you-​can-​tell-​they-​are-​a-​new-​restaurant-​keener friendly, and were more than happy to wrap up our leftovers in doggy bags. They also do orders for pick up and take out and you can BYOW. Word of warning… the combos are A LOT of food. With a crispy toasted tortilla-​ish thingy and chutney to snack on, an appetizer and then 2 dishes with rice… I didn’t even make a dent in mine. So I might recommend just going with a single dish option if you go for dinner. If you order take out for two people a combo for one person will be more than enough food.
The mango smoothie drink. Just do it. In your mouthhole.
Although it still doesn’t quite beat Mother India back in Toronto, it was delicious and I’d definitely go back if not just order in. Pretty stoked to have them in my hood.
