Everything was freshly made (we could glimpse the kitchen) to perfection, the starter and main was perfectly prepared but the assortment of various desserts especially the white chocolate cheesekcake and self-made ice cream were absolutely delicious. I would recommend this restaurant for a fine dining experience. Service is very friendly and professionel.

Oh how did I end up in these neck of woods I hear you ask. Well I do get around. By Lord this place…read moreis miles away though. I called it the never ending journey. So we got to our cottage in the middle of the woods in St Austell, driving there did remind me of Bram Stokers Dracula a little bit. The road seemed more appropriate for horse carriages rather than cars. The cottage was gorgeous though. Escapism value to the max. So off we strode into the merlin esque village looking for a decent eatery. Didn't have to venture far to find this little gem. Looking rather modest from the outside, the interior was fairly spacious and decor was fantastic. There was even a decent sized seating area outside which on this occasion was mute due to the atrocious weather. The service was fantastic as you'd expect from a village restaurant. The owner was very pleasant and kindly informed us he once visited when Oldham when we told him we were from up north. The food was fantastic and the recommendations made were immaculate. This after all after a shaky start when I was disgusted by the pathetic excuse for popadoms they served. If you ever find yourself in this sleepy village in Cornwall be sure to visit this place. What's more if you are close enough they;ll even deliver the food to you. I was impressed enough with the food to have it delivered the next night to the cottage. Result!!!!!

It is now light and airy but still has partitions between the tables so you do have a sense of intimacy. The Taj does not serve alcohol but you can bring your own bottle of wine. We did not realise this when we turned up so were rather disappointed, until the owner kindly GAVE us a bottle. Fantastic service, and the food is good.

My wife and I went for the 3 Fish Platter with seasonal veg. Sadly, the fish was overcooked and the veg, not only very sparse, was quite "stringy".

Staff were attentive, and took on board constructive criticism. Personally, we wouldn't return...

Great for a post-walk or even-post surf cup of coffee and bite to eat. Sandy kids are welcomed as are dogs, those in wetsuits, etc. A relaxed cafe offering a great menu and many special menu nights including spanish nights, pudding nights (1 main and 4 desserts for £16 - bargain of the century!) and even the odd ready steady cook night - bring your bag and the chefs will create you a meal for £6. A very quirky and fun place with good service, a beautiful view and well-prepared food. Great value.

We felt so lucky to get to enjoy an amazing review! Our server brought us menus and waters right away. He wasn't very enthusiastic but it kind of became a funny point throughout the meal. He brought us everything promptly and came to check if we needed anything else throughout the meal. He also shared his thoughts when we were feeling indecisive on some menu items. Now for the food. WONDERFUL. Everything my party ordered was devoured enthusiastically. I got the hash browns with tuna & the calamari. The flavors were so good. For only ordering fried food, I was surprised at how much flavor each of the items had. I wish we had room for dessert! I hope to come back if I'm ever in the area again.

The server did advise that they would cook it as rare as they could - but expect it pink. Here's a pic of the grey hockey puck I got. I let the server know my unhappiness- they offered to cook another but this order took so long that waiting for another seemed pretty sad. And we were so hungry from hiking around. Ultimately the server took 15% off this £19 burger as we finished less than half of the scorched pile but that was not much to make us feel okay about this place. Very frustrating to wait so long for a depressing looking and tasting meal.

Offers brilliant friendly service, a warm and intimate atmosphere and amazing value for money (think around £20 for two including beers) and the food is delicious! You will always order too much because the portions are very generous, but the Thai waitresses are always happy to parcel up a doggy bag. Also offers a takeaway service though this is little advertised. Only problem is that it is right in the middle of the town, and therefore nearby parking can be an issue. Also there is no wheelchair access and given the peaceful atmosphere, it may not be a good place for kids.
