What our guests are saying
We enjoyed a wonderful meal at Blue Taj recently. It was my first visit and was impressed. I asked the waiter for help exploring dishes that were less spicy and he was very helpful. The tomato coconut bisque desires a special shout out. Wife loved her veggie platter app and leek croquet. Our friends loved their food as well. Service was professional and the atmosphere really cool. Good wine list. Prices were reasonable. We'll be back.

I have been meaning to try this place for years and it was worth the wait. The food was excellent. I was too busy eating to snap a picture but I’ll definitely be back!!! I had the chicken methi curry and it was packed with flavor!

Had a fabulous experience dining here with my family. Between us, we ordered: -mushroom / corn / paneer curry -saag paneer -chicken tikka masala (best dish) -lamb saagwala -kebabs (green variety) -garlic naan (excellent) -onions/chilis/lemon ($2) Every dish was a hit, and worth the slightly higher than usual price. Would strongly recommend!
