Family restaurant with fantastic food and hospitable service!…read more Two hungry travelers, wandering the chilly streets of Rottweil looking for a late lunch on the Sunday after Fasnet might have found themselves right out of luck. Every restaurant we'd looked at was either closed for the afternoon or on Urlaub for the weekend. Only the Eiscafes seemed to be running a brisk business - despite the gray and drizzly weather. Nearly at our wits' end, we saw signs of life inside the Taj Mahal, so we opened the door and stuck our heads in. We quickly realized they too were closed for the afternoon, but we were beckoned inside and seated anyway. Huzzah! We soon found ourselves scarfing down a veritable banquet of Poppadums & chutney, Lamb Korma & Chicken Jalfrezi with basmati and naan. The curries were delicious, and not just because we were hungry! Both seemed to have been made independently - not just a basic sauce with a few extra ingredients added to each. The food was definitely in the top half of Indian restaurants I've ever tried, and much better than expected in a little town in rural Swabia. Extra points for being so hospitable as to seat and serve us even when technically closed!

We were looking for a late lunch on Sunday and most places were closed... so we had the misfortune…read moreof trying to get lunch in Taj Mahal. This was by far my worst experience during our week-long trip in the area: after we ordered, we waited for more than 40 minutes before our food arrived. And when it did, we were still not given cutlery (or napkins)!! After waiting for about 10 minutes to get the attention of the server, I just took a fork from the next table! I got butter chicken and my partner got paneer pasanda. Both stews were very salty and looked and tasted nothing like what we expected. Butter chicken was not creamy at all. Paneer Pasanda wasn't heated or mixed properly. There was sauce on the surface; but just below it, there was a cold hard ball of cheese layers with something congealed between them that we couldn't identify!! So we decided to have plain white rice only. It took us another 15 minutes before we could ask someone for the bill and the server never asked us how the (untouched) food was... IMHO we shouldn't have paid: there was practically no service, we lost about two hours, and were not even given an edible meal.
