Ever since moving to Napa, Taj has been our go to spot for going out to dinner. The food is always excellent and the staff are always a pleasure. Great service. The food is always cooked fresh to order, so maybe order ahead if you're in a hurry. Thanks Taj!

I recommend this place for good Indian food (northern Indian— Punjabi style) if you are in the Napa area. Good service, ambience and delicious food.
We (2) tried their Chicken Tandoori (bone-in), Taj Special Mutton curry, Tandoori Roti and Naan. Portions were generous, so we boxed some Tandoori Chicken and some curry.
You should instruct them about the level of spiciness that you want in your curry or the Tandoori dishes.
We requested ‘juicy inside’...

After a long, busy day, we decided the best way to treat ourselves was with some great food. We spotted this Indian restaurant across the street, and since we’re both big fans of Indian cuisine, we decided to give it a try—and we’re so glad we did!
We ordered the Tandoori Chicken (bone-in), Chicken Tikka Masala, and Butter Paratha. Everything was absolutely delicious, and the service was just as impressive. They also have a bar, which adds a fun vibe to...
