Taj Mahal Indian - Carol Stream

Chef Dipam is the best in Chicago land area. We met him and he made the best dishes I’ve tried. Only in India you can find this taste and it reminded me of home. And Gopal was very attentive as always. Best restaurant! 100% recommend to go there and have a great lunch buffet or an amazing dinner.

We got really great food from here. I will say the mild spice level was very mild, I was expecting something a bit spicier for Indian food, but it was very good nonetheless. I will just know to order medium next time. Also the best samosas I have ever had.

This used to be a good restaurant. But the food is bad now. We used to order cheese butter masala, but now the taste is so bad. We ordered panner saslik, cheese butter masala. All food with medium spicy. But the food we received was so sweet and cheese butter masala was tangy in taste. Will not visiting again.

Delicious food with just the right amount of spice. This was a great atmosphere to enjoy a meal with good friends. Highly recommend.

I have never been a fan of Indian food, but it is mainly due to the few Indian restaurants I have ever eaten. After a recent negative experience at an Indian restaurant, I decided to actively find better Indian food. Luckily, my first stop was Taj Mahal. I went during an off peak hour (2pm) so there was only one other patron. The music was pleasant. I was given a thin, crunchy cracker like food with 3 sauces: a sweet one, a medium one with minced onions, and a green spicy one. I ordered a chicken samosa, chicken Tikka masala, and the Taj Special Lasso (a yogurt based drink with rose syrup quite good and refreshing). The Samosa was excellent with a perfect blend of savory flavors. I tried all the sauces on it. I found the green one complimented it best. The Tikka Masala was served in a beautiful dish alongside some garlic Naan. Both were fantastic. The depth of the flavor I found in this food is exactly what has been missing in every other Indian restaurant I've eaten. I will be returning here to try all the rest of the dishes. I spoke with the restaurant owner, Gopan, who was actually my server. He was very friendly and gracious. I intend to go back soon.
