“Excellent Indian food that would tend say has the taste and feel of the authentic dishes. Their Thali platter has been hit for myself and family. A great all rounder if you like to get a tasting of a bunch of dishes at a go. Also a call out for the coriander chicken dish, well marinated and cooked to a tender, flavorful awesomeness. Well worth a visit! Awesome staff!“

Their food is seriously sooo good! 🤤 It literally feels like you’re having a homemade meal away from home. 🥹❤ They have no onion, no garlic options too, and they’re super flexible with customizing your food just the way you want it. Everything was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend this place! 😍✨“

“Recently ordered panini sandwiches (chicken and paneer) for a lunch party and all our guests LOVED them. The bread was nice and thick to hold the tasty and well-cooked paneer /chicken along with salad-like filler material. Great portion size, reasonably priced, and the order was ready on time. Samosas were also very good! Cakes were awesome as well - both black forest and butterscotch. True to their name!“

“My friend and I came here for the dinner buffet, and the food was absolutely amazing! 😍 For just $15, the buffet is totally worth it. The chicken pakodi was especially delicious—a must-try! The service was also very good, and the staff were welcoming. Great food, great service, and an affordable price. Definitely recommended! 🔥😋“

“Royal Taj is our go-to restaurant for special occasions, like our 20th Wedding Anniversary last week. It never fails to deliver excellence. Because it was a very special dinner, we decided to try something different. So my wife ordered the Lobster Malabar and I ordered the Grilled Halibut. Both were very good, especially the Halibut which was covered in an outstanding Corn Relish. To top off the evening our excellent server, Joshi, brought us a slice of very tasty cheesecake with a lit candle on top. As usual we cannot rave loud and often enough about Royal Taj and it is all due to the GM Binda, who is very friendly, charismatic and truly sets the tone of excellence at Royal Taj.“

“One of my favorites. Great food, service and atmosphere. Wait staff was wonderful. Food we had last night was phenomenal.“

“I always order delivery from Halal Kabab & Wings when I’m craving comfort food. The food arrives hot, fresh, and fast! My go-to is the chicken wrap with fries — 10/10 every time. Super convenient and totally worth it. 🚗🍟“

“We ordered tonight and everything was delicious!!!! The sauces were so flavorful, and the vegetable Pakora were so light and delicious. We really enjoyed our meal and will be back!!“

“Butter chicken and chicken Tikki masala and garlic naan all exceptional“

“I really enjoyed the food I had, starting with the vegetable samosa, and for my meal, I had the lamb shahi korma. I took an order of the butter chicken home with me. I also had the butter naan and a mango lassi with my meal. I really enjoy Indian food and this location is very convenient and close to my home. I will definitely come here again and will have their lunch buffet.“

“Unique menu and best service .“

“Consistently excellent food. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Best vindaloo I’ve ever had“

“My wife and I came in today for the lunch buffet, and everything was wonderful. It was hard to choose, but I did find my favorites that I went back for more of. Afterward, I wished I had saved room for dessert, because that was great too. They were very accommodating with my wife’s dairy allergy, and prepared some dishes, especially for her. I give them 10 out of 10. Everything was delicious.“

“Here's to the highest stars available (20), and then some. Today, I introduced my son to Mango Lassie, Chicken Tika Masala, Nan. He was hesitant to come at first and now he is so impressed with the food and service. Thanks so much. I hope your restaurant grows and grows.“

“everything was perfect. chicken and lamb tikka masala superb, naan bread great, and family service is incredible“

“Absolutely Delicious – Best Fish Sub Around! I can’t say enough good things about East Drive Kitchen! I stopped in on a whim and decided to try their fish sub—and WOW. Hands down one of the best fish subs I’ve ever had! The fish was perfectly crispy on the outside, tender and flavorful on the inside. The bread was fresh and soft, and the toppings were just right—not too much, not too little. You can tell they take pride in their food. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the service was fast, even during the lunch rush. If you’re in the area and craving something satisfying, do yourself a favor and get the fish sub. You won’t regret it. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Yaar Spice has the best sauces I've ever eaten. The menu is vast and everything is remarkable. I try to visit weekly .“

“Delicious Pakistani dishes! Friendly service and generous portions. Overall a fantastic place for Pakistan cuisine. Highly recommended!“

“I’ve been going here for years and they def strive to serve and accommodate all types of diets. I was craving pizza and the chef made me a pie with an Indian twist! 10/10 would recommend all day, everyday.“

“Absolutely true to its name. House of India is the place to be if you appreciate authentic Indian cuisine and excellent service. It’s not only having a dinner , it’s having a memorable experience. Loved everything about it. The food is exceptionally great, the service is outstanding. The owners under new management goes above and beyond to make every guests feel welcome. Highly recommend this place.“

“Ive been going to Indian Delight since I moved in to the neighborhood in 2016. In that 10 years, it is the only restaurant that has only improved over that time. What's more impressive, it didn't go from mediocre to good. It went from great to absolutely fantastic.“

“Huge if true! Heres a hint:“

“These guys make very good food, and they are very eager to please. They have two menus, one with American food like pizza and burgers and fried chicken, and the other with Indian food. Personally I like their non-curry dishes. It is quite spicy and never bland. Tonight I had the chicken thigh dinner which was very soft and spicy. It was fantastic. They also seemed to have invested a good amount of money into this place. Nice quality interior and good parking outside. The owner and the hostess both came to the table personally and asked us about how the food tastes. These people really care.“

“Hands down the best Indian food I’ve had in Owings Mills — every dish was bursting with flavor! If you’re anywhere near Owings Mills and craving Indian food, you need to check out Tikka Shack. We dined in as a family and tried a huge variety of dishes — and honestly, everything was outstanding. We tried everything at house spice - there were addition levels of heat for those interested. We had the Shrimp Coconut Tacos, Paneer Butter Taco, Tikka Pizza with chicken, Chicken Biryani, Mango Lassi, Ras Malai, Street Style Chaat (both the samosa and potato versions), Tikka Masala, Garlic Naan, and Samosas. For drinks we had fountain coke, Maasa Lychee, and Tractor Orange Cadamon. Every dish had its own personality — from the bold spices to the fresh garnishes — and each one was delicious. The restaurant itself is super clean with plenty of seating, and the staff couldn’t have been friendlier. We even ordered some extra to bring home for our lunches the next day! All in all - we all left happy and full! Highly recommend this spot — it’s perfect for families, groups, or even takeout if you just want seriously good Indian grub at home.“

“Great food and people love them“

“I absolutely love the Irani chai! It deserves five stars all on its own. I also enjoy the samosas, puffs, and the B&B chicken appetizer, and the biryani is good too. I haven’t tried anything else yet, but I hope the taste and quality stay consistent.

I did receive the wrong order once or twice, which was disappointing, but I’m hoping it was an honest mistake.“

“While this won’t stop us from ordering their delicious food again, tonight’s experience just wasn’t the same. I ordered the family package with vegetarian Biryani, which included raita, salan, plain rice, naam, and chicken curry. We got our order and it was missing the salan. I called the restaurant and got the weirdest explanation. “It’s a very small container. They make a large container and if it runs out. But it’s just a small container of peanut sauce.” I don’t care what the size of the container is, it’s advertised as a package and I expect everything in the order.“

“Variety of food, good service.“

“Everything was so amazing. We loved the food and the service. Staff was so attending and helpfull. We requested for less spice since we had 3 kids with us and they were so understanding. Our food was so nice. The restaurant is spontaneous and very clean. Will definitely come again.“

“We had the Gujrati Thali and it was EXCELLENT. The food was very authentic, and there were many different dishes included. Highly recommend this vegetarian thali! Also, the service was friendly and wonderful.“

“Tried their Raju Gari Mutton, Cut Mirchi, and Chikoo Shake — everything was absolutely delicious! 😋🔥
The Raju Gari Mutton was flavorful and perfectly cooked, the Cut Mirchi was crispy and tasty, and the Chikoo Shake was so refreshing and delicious. Definitely worth trying! ❤
Friendly staff and quick service!!“

“This is the best Indian restaurant ever! The service and the food are perfect. The tandoori chicken is delectable. I highly recommend this restaurant and I will definitely be going back!“

“We dined here for their lunch buffet and the food was amazing and extremely fresh. Everything was really tasty and a great value. Highly recommend!“

“BBQ tonite has the best Goat in Baltimore, and it has become our favorite Pakistani restaurant.“

“Love it very authentic best I’ve had in the US“

“I order from them at least once a week. My salads are always fresh and delicious and their blue cheese is the bomb! My salad today is the best yet!“

“Food is always excellent Nice people“

“Every time I get something here I am blown away with how amazing it is! They have the BEST veggie pizza I’ve ever had - lots of veggies yet not soggy at all and full of flavor. Their chicken wings are also some of the best I’ve ever had. Their Indian cuisine is authentic and delicious. I’m often nervous when I see a restaurant with such a large and diverse menu but somehow Arlon’s totally pulls it off and everything is outstanding!“

“excellent food weekend special Buffet“

“We had a fantastic dining experience here. My husband friend's birthday celebration with family was made special by the delicious food. Even our kids enjoyed the food. Highly recommend this place for family gatherings. Food was flavorful, & delicious, had lots of options to choose. Can't wait to come back and try more of their menu. 5 stars isn't enough - I'd give it 10 stars if I could.“
