I swear up and down by this... without a doubt the best bang-for-your buck lunch special in all of Greenpoint. Not to mention, it's delicious too! I work in the neighborhood and eat here all. The. Time. It's a great quiet spot to dine in, or you can take your food to go, just make sure you show up hungry because portions are huge! The lunch special gives you soup, an appetizer, naan, rice, and an entree of your choice. I had the lamb curry today which was fantastic, my friend had the chicken vindaloo which I've had before and also love. They do a great chicken tikka masala as well, and it should be noted there are vegetarian options for lunch too! In addition to all the food they have a great selection of sauces to spice up the flavor if you so desire. Service is also fantastic -- everything comes out super speedy! Go check this place out, it's very special to me :) read more

Got this mixed grill kebab delivered the other night. I've had mixed grilled stuff from other places and this one wasn't dry so I liked that. The sauce that came with it definitely enhanced the flavor. But I feel like I couldn't gotten more variety and less vegetables that were packed in there, although they were delicious. read more

Order was correct with good portions. Tikka masala was flavorful without too much spice. Sag paneer was tasty and would order both again. Naan was good too. read more

Take out from here is hit and miss, items ordered are often wrong and / or ordered condiments are not provided. The latest incident was after ordering via Grubhub the restaurant called to tell me that they were sold out of an item; it was agreed that the delivery driver would bring a refund for said item. Upon delivery the driver knew nothing and once again I found part of the order was wrong (vegetable filling provided instead of meat). Upon calling the restaurant the gentleman's reply was 'oh my god' and a promise that someone would be returning with the correct item and said refund - it never happened! While the food is here generally good this will be my last order. read more

My wife has gotten sick from ordering a dish with fish in it. I really enjoyed the mushroom shag until one carry out experience there was what looked like a big piece of black plastic in it. I returned to the restaurant and an employee told me it was cinnamon and broke off a piece and ate it; it was still a very bizarre. They have a calm ambiance with reddish light. I'd say they're probably hit or miss. read more

Took almost 1 hour 45 to get my food delivered. So definitely don't order from these guys for that. Not worth the trouble.

Very good lunch special; tasty mulligatawny soup, excellent chicken vindaloo, only $12. Service isn't the best, but I was there for a late lunch and they were prepping for dinner read more

Had to go when I saw this on my favourite tv series and it lived up to the dream in my head. So delicious, cozy atmosphere.

The foods pretty good. The service isnt the best, but i got my food so. The ambiance is nice if there would be more people, its always empty. read more

Agra Taj Mahal - 44. Chana Masala - Indian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Authentic Indian fare with great food and wonderful soft, pillowy Naan (homemade on site). Even better, Agra Taj Mahal is open late and delivers! Service is a bit laissez faire, but I appreciate the personal space. I recommend getting one of the several specials. I ordered a special with lentil soup, 2 meat samosas, and chicken tikka masala. My partner ordered one with 2 vegetable samosas and a lamb platter. Both come with rice. They provide complimentary papadum (think crackers) and a chutney trio if you dine-in. Be sure to request it while you wait! It's gratis and sometimes they forget. I forgot to take photos before eating them, but the chutneys are in these shots. The chutneys are so good, use it on the Naan too! They are Indian classics: 1x green chutney, 1x brown tamarind chutney, and 1x red pickled onions. Menus attached read more

Small unassuming place, nice interior decor and place settings. The food was delicious and tasty. Naan hot fluffy and perfect in my opinion ( I had the butter naan but was delighted by the smell of the garlic naan ) enough portions to share and take a little snack home. I will definitely be back. read more

The veggie samosa were fantastic. For 1am on a Sunday in Greenpoint, could not have done any better. I ate three. They gifted us with some fantastic raita to go with our food. read more

Great spot. Have been ordering delivery from here for years but finally went in person and it was a great experience. They're busy so the phone rings off the hook in the background. The tikka masala is excellent with garlic naan. And I recommend the mango lassi. read more

I ordered lunch today from here. I ordered the vegetable curry as well as the coconut soup. The vegetable curry came with what looked like the blade of a top of a plastic knife which I found while I was eating it and the bread came with what looks like piece of a stucco wall attached to it. Plaster almost - see below. I threw the food out and requested a refund from delivery.com. read more

If you are at all interested in Covid prevention, do not bother with this place. No masks, completely casual.

Ordered delivery on Grubhub at 8:10, with a delivery window of 9:05-9:15. Called the restaurant around 9:25 to see where the order is, and the restaurant said the driver left 5 mins ago (5 mins outside the delivery window), and should be there within 5-6 mins. 20 mins later I still don't have my food. It is now 9:45 PM. Definitely won't be ordering from here again. Certainly not worth the $5.00 delivery fee AND the 20% tip. read more

Be warned someone recently found a roach in the chicken tika masala. Completely disgusting and unacceptable. I felt obligated to write this post so others are aware. read more

My experience with place has been a sorry one. I did not ok now that the delivery fee was not for the delivery person, he asked me for a tip and I was taken aback. I apologized and stated that the delivery fee is for him idk. But then it got worst. The shrimp korma was a green/yellowish grey color, not very appealing. I won't be ordering it eating here. read more

Missing true Indian flavors. But the nan/bread were awesome. This is not Indian cuisine, it appears to be halal Bangladeshi based on the environment and menu. The dishes tasted like they had canned tomatoes instead of the fresh. I'm sorry but this is not Indian food. The malai kofta was too sweet for my taste, it was like desert. No tadka here. read more

I've never left a Yelp review, but this could be a matter of life or death, so I think it's important to get this story out there. I'm a big fan of Indian food, and have been for about 20 years. I also have a very severe peanut allergy. I always ask about peanuts when I order food from anywhere, and have always been told that Indian restaurants don't cook with peanuts or peanut oil. Still, whenever I order I search the menu to make sure they don't list peanuts in any of their dishes and I always explicitly state my allergy. I ordered from Agra Taj Mahal last night through Delivery.com. For each dish I ordered, I wrote in the instructions "Peanut Allergy- no peanuts or peanut oil!" despite the fact that they didn't have any peanut products listed on the menu. When the food came, I took one bite of their Sag Paneer and immediately knew something was wrong. Turns out many of their dishes include peanuts, including the two that I ordered with the note of my deathly allergy. Luckily I got the medical help I needed and am okay. But it could have turned out differently, and could be more fatal for another person. Completely unacceptable and extremely dangerous. read more

I love Indian food-- I'm so happy that this place opened up! I have been here about a handful times-- The food is amazing!!! My favorites so far: The Samosa are amazing!!! And the sauces are just the right amount of spice! The mushroom Bahaji is delicious! from the Naan I love the butter naan, or the plain naan-- The less it has the better my favorite thing to do it dip the bread in the sauce from the main dishes that I get. The chicken Masala is amazing-- Must have. The chicken rezala is also good but not my favorite. The shrimp curry, shrimo vindaloo, lobster curry is also a must order here. The food is amazing over all-- I also recommend the Spiced Tea!!! read more

Coming from London I'm used to, and am a fan of, good Indian food. I'm also cognizant of the fact that it's very hard to find good Indian food Stateside and so I was interested, but not getting my hopes up, when I saw that this place had recently opened in my neighbourhood. Last night I ordered the chicken vindaloo. Now when I order a vindaloo I expect to have to put the toilet paper in the fridge for a couple of hours beforehand, I expect to be sweating by the third bite and I expect to be in hot, hot heaven as my saliva glands attempt to extinguish the rampant flames of that fiery goodness. What I got was pretty much a flavourless korma. Rubbish. UPDATE: 6/19/2013 I really wanted to like this place because it is so convenient and I love Indian food and so I went there again last night. Thinking that maybe I walked out with someone else's meal the last time I ordered the chicken vindallo extra spicy and guess what? I got another reconstituted korma. Putting a bit of extra heat in a korma and selling it as a vindaloo is extrememly patronizing to customers. read more

Good quality Indian food in the neighborhood. I wasn't sure how Greenpoint would handle Indian but I was really pleased with Agra. The restaurant is quiet but when we sat there about 25 Seamless orders came in. Despite the delivery business they make the effort of putting down white cloth tablecloths and wearing formal waiter-ware. I've always loved this about Indian restaurants. Prices at decent and portion sizes are good. They give papdum at the start of your meal. My chicken tikka masala was slightly different from what I'm used to but still very good. Chicken saag was also a winner. We've also ordered takeout from here and delivery is very prompt. read more

I live and die for good Indian food...and Agra Taj Mahal is excellent Indian food. I have ordered here a bunch of times and have loved all of the dishes I've ordered. Here's what I would recommend: APPETIZERS - Vegetable samosas - Vegetable pakora - Chicken tikka appetizer - Chana poori BREADS - Cheese naan - Garlic naan - Aloo paratha MAINS - Channa saag - Chana masala - Aloo Matar Gobi - Chicken Tikka Masala - Chicken Madras - Chicken Biyrani You can't go wrong with any of the above. Those are my go to dishes at Agra. read more

Super solid Indian food, speedy and exceedingly polite delivery, but frighteningly bad phone order manners. I recommend ordering online and bypassing all that mess. It's a valuable take-out/delivery option for those of us who yearn for Indian food regularly and realize how few viable options there are in Greenpoint/Williamsburg. Had: saag paneer, chana masala, naans. read more

I live 4 blocks away from this new Greenpoint Indian spot, and it's not going to be good for my waist line! We have had a real indian food drought for some time on my end of Manhattan Ave and this place hits the spot! Lunch special- for $7.99 I got a delicious cup of mulagatawny soup, piping hot samosa that was so flaky it was almost doughy- in a good way, huge order of naan bread, and chicken vindaloo and rice which was a big portion for lunch. And for $7.99!?! The chicken was tender and the spice level was just what i wanted, not mild but not toooo hot. The service was amazing, water was continually refilled but they didn't hover over me. All in all , A+. I wil be going back this week for dinner, and I expect the quality and service to sustain. They set the bar high and I can't wait to see how things go. read more

I love Indian Food, Agra Taj Mahal leaves me wishing someone would open a decent Indian restaurant in Greenpoint. The butter chicken, chicken vindaloo, and chicken korma were all flavorless. The sauces all taste like they come from the same bucket. The Chana Masala was almost completely unseasoned. It was basically chick peas with a thin tomato sauce and had a metallic taste, like canned beans. I also tried the appetizer platter which was overall very disappointing, everything was very dry and lacked any real flavor. The rice is not very good, and even the sauce and Onion chutney that they include with everything lacks substance. The tamarind sauce is watery and has little flavor. The restaurant itself is not very inviting. The interior is unadorned and loud even when empty. It has the feel of a 1980's chinese takeout. The exterior is sided with diamond plate steel, like the side of a hot truck. Overall the highly Americanized and watered down approximations of Indian dishes are kind of insulting both to me as a consumer and to Indian culture. read more

Love the set up. Inviting and friendly. Food portion was very good, I got all of that for $9.00. Excellent service I enjoyed it here. I was on break from work and told them I was in a rush, my food cane out in 5 minuets literally lol going back to work happy read more

This isn't real Indian food. This is the slop Indian's serve white people and pass off as Indian food. But if that's what you're looking for, knock yourself out... read more

I LOVE this restaurant! I order delivery from here at least once every 2 weeks and am always impressed. The food arrives quickly, hot, and is consistently delicious. I've also dined in a handful of times and the service is great. It's by far the best Indian food in the neighborhood. read more

Great, quick, awesome lunch special. Neighborhood favorite!

My husband and I love this place and have ordered from here regularly since we moved to Greenpoint. He likes the lamb rogan josh and I'm a fan of the chicken jal frazi and chicken bhona. Unfortunately, when we ordered delivery last night, l found a short black hair in my food halfway through the meal (definitely not mine). It's a shame because the food is delicious, but I'm not too sure about the hygienic practices in the kitchen. Would appreciate if the kitchen staff wore hairnets to prevent this sort of thing from happening in the future... read more

I'm ecstatic that Greenpoint finally has a decent Indian restaurant! Initially, I was not very impressed with their food (opening week), but I decided to give it a try a couple of weeks later and have been impressed since. Word of advice - stick to the veggie dishes - they are all superb and if you like your food spicy, make sure you ask them to make it to your tastes or add a side of lemon/mango pickle to your order. Their chicken can be a bit hit-or-miss - I've had amazing chicken dishes one night and the next week, it was quite rubbery. I highly recommend the saag paneer, paneer tikka masala, bhindi masala (okra), and malai kofta. Apparently they also have a great lunch special for $7.50 that my parents (they are originally from India) tried out while visiting - and they loved it! read more

I was shocked that ratings of this restaurant are so low. I was gonna write a 5 star review, but when my dinner arrived and I've got to taste it, I am hesitant to give it 4 stars. It was disgusting and I had to put it down. My salmon tikka masala was made with fish skin and lots LOTS of fish fat. After cleaning up pieces from fat, there was nothing to eat. Why don't you just put less salmon, but at least it will be a salmon? Never again I will order that dish. However, I've been ordering from them over 10 times now and only once dish wasn't satisfactory. Other than that, it is really a good restaurant with tasty flavorful food and good portions. Shrimp and chicken tikka masala are good, aloo gobi, paneers. read more

Great prices, and fast delivery/pickup. Easily my favorite indian spot in Greenpoint. If you're looking for a place to dine-in this place might not be for you, it's pretty casual inside, although the service is good the decor isn't super fancy. I'm a big fan of all of their veggie options, as well as the Aloo Matar Gobi. Everything I've eaten there is great quality and you can't really beat the prices. read more

Great food for great price, lunch special is $9 for chicken tikka, veggie samosa, rice & drink. Service needs improvement. They are always talking loudly on the phone, sometimes watching loud videos on their phones while you eat, they don't talk to the customers at all. Worth the price, I'll keep coming read more

As a fan of Indian food I am hard to be impressed, and even more because I used to work in India so I know how to tell between clean, fresh, authentic Indian food to the not so quality Indian that unfortunately is out there... Agra Taj Mahal is outstanding clean, tasty, and nice... The service is professional, respectful and fast. The dishes are being cooked on the spot. Great chef, great atmosphere, reasonable affordable prices.... Recommend from the bottom of my heart to go and try... 10 min. From the midtown east , is the home of the best Indian secret in the area... Had many dishes there which all are good - loved the butter chicken, the chicken tikka masala, and the cheese nan . Love them, Alex read more

I'm pretty happy with this Indian option in Greenpoint. The best Indian in the area for sure (not many options in the area). I've never eaten at the restaurant, so my review is only in regards to delivery. I've tried a variety of items on the menu now and most have been success meals. As a basic lunch, the chicken tikka masala is such a good choice, and the curry is topped with sliced almonds. And when I request it to be spicy, I can actually taste the added spice. Usually requesting a spicy curry comes mild at best. Not mind blowing Indian, but a good cheap option for the lunch rotation. Friendly, fast, awesome lunch deal, and tasty. All good in my book. 3.5 read more
