A Fantastic Indian Lunch Buffet!…read more Taj is a gem! The restaurant is modern and very clean, and they have a full bar, but the food is the star. The lunch buffet here is the perfect size with excellent chicken, goat, and vegetarian options. The food is delicious and so flavorful. The staff will bring a basket of fresh baked Naan to your table. Taj is nice enough for a date or for a work lunch. I'm definitely coming back soon.

I've always driven past Taj and couldn't wait to try it out. It's located in a plaza but it's not…read morehard to find. Taj boldly delivers a feast for the table and the senses. We ordered family-style, and every dish that hit the table was vibrant, aromatic, and made with love. The tandoori chicken was simple yet so comforting, it arrived in a sizzling skillet adding a hint of flare in the presentation. Each chicken piece was beautifully charred, and coated in a bold, smoky marinade. The curries were so rich and each one had its own personality. The creamy yellow curry from the Chicken Korma was very rich in flavor while the saagwala was earthy, well-seasoned, and not over-puréed. Personally my favorite was the chicken korma the curry sauce was just on another level, I highly recommend this dish. The lamb biryani was another highlight with fragrant basmati rice and huge chunks of lamb generously garnished with fresh cilantro. Bread lovers be warned! The naan was hot, fluffy, and perfect for scooping up sauces. We also tried the aloo tikki as an appetizer and they were crisp on the outside yet so soft inside. If you're looking for a place to enjoy a full Indian spread with friends or family, then make sure you check Taj out!

After a long week, the last thing I wanted to do was cook dinner. It was late fall and I was keen…read morefor a drive so I pointed the car in the direction of 'Nashville's Queens' and looked for a place to strike my fancy. Surati had been on my radar for a long while so when I drove past, I knew that I had made my mind up. Despite it being a Friday night, it wasn't very busy. The inside is small but not so much that you'd have a claustrophobic attack. Parking is easy (thankfully; a rarity these days) so after walking in... I sorta stood there. I'm not new to small mom & pops but I didn't quite know how things worked here and rather than call out, I waited to be greeted. I would have to continue to wait. No wanting to stand in silence with a nearly empty dining room, I asked about the ordering process. Maybe the kitchen (and front of house) was busy with online orders? My service was standoffish at best. Normally I would have left but open hours on Friday night can fluctuate and I didn't want to start over in another queue (it was after 7). Had I eaten in, I would have gone for a dosa. Not knowing how that would travel, I opted for Szechuan fried rice (medium). I hadn't so much as ordered and sat in a booth to look at my phone to waste some time when I was told my food was ready. Either Surati has the fastest chefs in the city or my food was not made to order -- and I certainly didn't experience the 'extras' other Yelpers describe. Not wanting to get into it, I paid and left. I came home to a generous amount of well-seasoned biryani rice and vegetables with just enough heat to let you know you're alive but not so much as to wreck your mouth. I took the W. Food was good enough and I felt that I got my money's worth. Everything else about my experience, though, led me to conclude that this would be a one and done for me. Onto the next.

Surati is a true hidden gem for anyone who loves authentic Indian street food. Everything on the…read moremenu is vegetarian, but you won't miss the meat--these dishes aren't meant for it anyway. The flavors stand on their own, rich with spices and textures that make every bite exciting. We tried the chaat (you can't go wrong with any of them) and the cholle bhature, both bursting with bold flavors and the perfect balance of crunch, spice, and tang. Every dish felt like a street food experience, made with care and authenticity. On top of the amazing food, the hospitality was just as memorable. The man taking orders was incredibly kind, offering the kind of warm, welcoming service that makes a place feel special. If you're a true foodie, Surati is a must-visit. It's an unassuming spot, but once you step in, you'll find some of the best Indian street food around.

I went to Rajdhani tonight for dinner with four other people, and we were all REALLY impressed by…read morethe food. Rajdhani is Nepali food, which none of us had ever tried - but we all love Indian food and Nepali food had some similar flavors and dishes. We started with two orders of momo (Nepali dumplings). We had a vegetarian party in our party, so we got one order of the vegetable momo and one order of the chicken momo. To be honest, I was more excited about the chicken momo, but the vegetable momo BLEW ME AWAY. The chicken was okay (a little dry and not as flavorful as the vegetable), but the vegetable was amazing. (The chicken was still worth ordering, but it needed a bit of the sauce to make it more delicious, and the vegetable momo didn't need anything at all.) Then we shared a bunch of dishes family style: chicken curry, aalu govi (potato, cauliflower, and spices - aloo gobi in Indian cuisine), a vegetarian thali (a dish of many small dishes, which included a daal, eggplant, okra, and other veg dishes), chicken curry, Chicken Tikka Masala, and paneer chili. Everything was good, but my favorites were the Chicken Tikka Masala, the paneer chili, and the okra from the veg thali. Rajdhani is a grocery store and cafe. The cafe is to the back of the grocery store. The service was good, and our server answered all the questions we had about the menu. We finished ALL of our plates. Every little bite of food was eaten. We didn't leave hungry, that's for sure! Rajdhani isn't a fancy place. But as an introduction to Nepali food? It's a winner. I definitely plan on going back and trying more Nepali food if the opportunity arrives! If you like to explore the international cuisine available in Nashville's Nolensville corridor, add Rajdhani to your list! Well worth the hike out to Nolensville and Bell Road (admittedly not so much of a hike for this Crieve Hall girl). Two thumbs up!

Tumeric & Co is THE place to go if you're craving Indian on a lunch break or even a quick dinner!…read moreLocated in Hunters Station in East Nashville - Tumeric & Co is the perfect addition! Located just right from the main doors, there is bar seating, communal seating for the food hall or limited smaller tables you can dine at! I came in wanting to try a little bit of everything and venture out from the norm. The lady who helped me with my order was amazing - she guided me through the menu, let me know her favorites and made my lunch break experience so simple! I ordered the Kathi Roll with Butter Chicken, Dal Makhani, Pork Bites and a Masala Chai for the extra cherry on top! Each meal was delivered in a fresh new way from traditional Indian restaurants I've tried in the past. I fell in love! While they may be part of a food hall, do NOT let that deter you from the flavor explosions of each hand crafted meal! They are East Nashvilles BEST Indian for a reason! Their location makes for easy pickup/take out as well!

The other sauce tasted like a mayo based sauce and I didn't like that one too much. The wrap left me full and satisfied. My friend ordered the salad and added chicken. I can't believe how inexpensive it was. Also so fresh and had so many fruits and veggies on it. Will definitely be back. There is plenty of indoor seating and outside through the back door there is more seating. Parking is validated which is a plus. It wasn't too loud on this side of the station so I enjoyed eating inside. The staff seemed happy we were there and were very attentive.
