Taj Mahal has the best flavor on their chicken tikka masala in the tri-state area. Order the 2nd hottest heat level and you will be so happy. It is just the right amount of heat, but more importantly the DEPTH of the spices is very flavorful and savory. Many places in the area just throw in more chili powder at the higher heat levels. Taj Mahal adds more heat as well as anuthentic Indian spices. 10/10 😁

Everything seems made when you order not reheated. They took the time to make a proper tea masala, the naan was handmade and the food is delicious with the right balance of texture and spice. An absolutely new favorite!
