TAJ, Dothan

The atmosphere is cozy. We ordered the onion salad and Naan bread for starters. The Naan was excellent, so we put another order in to have with our meal. The meal came but no bread. We were in the back, alone. No one in sight....We started hollering for assistance about when we were half done. When we ask the waitress for our bread she said its not my fault and went to the kitchen where they toasted the bread and she bought it out as we were finishing. She left the bill on the table and we passed her as she was leaving, and we we're searching for someone to pay. At the front I saw a sign for desserts. I ask what the one in the middle was as I thought I might take it back to our hotel. She said a few days prior they had a wedding and it was left over from that. She said she had never had it before and didn't know what was in it. I ask her if that was right, 6.99 for left over dessert from a wedding, she just shrugged her shoulders. The meal tasted good, but I'm not likely to return.More

Smelled great walking in the door

Honestly, I've had better Indian food, but for the location and the COVID situation with limited menus , this place was pretty darn good. I was surprised when they asked how hot we wanted the food (I've never been asked that before), and, of course,...not knowing what *their* level of spicy was, we went middle of the road light. (Just to let you know, their "5" isn't as spicy as a Taco Bell Chicken Quesadilla.) We had the rack of lamb and the Tikka Masala, both were excellent, and the Naan was good, too. Their "Greek" menu is very limited right now. Service was friendly and I only had to wave someone down for more water once. The restaurant side shows they are working hard to maintain social distancing,More

Affordable price with variety of food

Affordable price with variety of food. It is a unique combination of Indian Cuisine and Indian heritage. It brings you a variety of dishes from different regions of India and their menu contains both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes.

Hard to determine type of restaurant while eating here

I came with a friend to dine here who said this was like Indian with curries. It was Thursday evening and service was slow. I didn't order tea since most Indian restaurants serve water to drink, I heard from my friend that the tea was...good however. So many selections, it was hard to make a decision without a lot of thought. I ordered a large meal, a Kebab of some kind with lots of combinations and had to choose how spicy we wanted it but we got something looking different than described in the menu with sheep or goat, some kind of sausage, a few shrimp, chicken pieces, vegetables on rice. We were given large plates so I immediately plated the rice and everything else on the plate My friend didn't plat all his but complained they took away his plate of rice although it had food on it still instead of waiting until the end of the meal in case he wanted to eat it. He was also unhappy that the extra bread I ordered did not come when the meal arrived but he raved about how good it was when we finally got it. This dish was filled with flavor, wasn't too spicy but had some sauce to go with it. It was generously filling to me but my friend could not eat his all like I could although he enjoyed it. It was costly for the meal but he said lunch was a lot more reasonable, that he and his caretaker can eat close to $20. for both of them. This food seems to infuse different ethnic groups, from India, Lebanese, Pakistani, Mediterranian. I enjoyed something different from what I normally get while eating here.More

Terrible

The food and service are subpar and the grounds are in disrepair. Waitress seemed to care less about our desires or needs.

Second time

Sunday brunch was a great time to try different dishes when you’re not sure. The lamb gyro was very good and plenty for two with an appetizer.

We had never had Indian food before. Glad to have found Taj. Our server Jonathan was great. We will definitely return when in Dothan. Would recommend you try Taj.

Dont believe the Hype

Worst Gyro ever. Top ten worse restaurants in Dothan. 1st and last visit. Go to Zoe's if you want flavor.
