I love these guys. Not just because I started going in 1995, but because I've traveled the earth and still find them my favorite Indian food. I hope that you will continue to support them. I have over the years enjoyed when they've put Indian music videos on, while you're dining. Tip: try the Chicken Tikka Masala- Medium, their Lamb Vindaloo - Hot, their Tandoori Chicken off the dinner menu, the Vegetable Korma mild, the Bhuna with fish, and get ahold of me if you have other questions about menu items. I must have tried them all! It can be a great romantic date place. :) read more

What a yummy place!! Their lunch special was the perfect size at a great price. The place was quiet, clean, and the service was great. I over heard the waiter making sure the vegan at another table was taken care of, above and beyond. Highly recommend!! read more

Tajmahal Restaurant - Lunch special - Indian Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

I can't believe this place didn't have 5 stars because the food is exceptional. I got take out from here and my photos don't do it justice. The aloo mutter (medium spice) was flavorful, spicy and the potatoes were soft and tender. It came with basmati rice and I paired it all with an order of the butter nan. Party on my tastebuds! The inside had romantic lighting and offered an Indian experience with fun music and art. Service was fast and friendly! My order was ready within a few minutes. I ordered from the Yelp app which was so convenient. Best Indian food I've had in awhile! read more

We went here for a graduation dinner with family (a large table) and they treated us like royalty; every dish was delicious, came out fast, and the service was friendly and attentive. Everyone was so impressed by the flavors of the dishes and the level of service in this well-kept secret of an Indian restaurant. I didn't know we had such a jewel in Fort Collins! They gave the graduate a free dessert of her choice and even made up a special batch of homemade chai just for one member of the group (and then offered the rest of it to her in a large to-go cup since they had already made it and it was the end of the night). We will be back! read more

We loved this place so much, the service was wonderful and had many services asking about our experience. The atmosphere was clean and well taken care. The food was outstanding! We started with vegetable samosas and loved all of the sauces that came with it. We shared an order of butter chicken and garlic nan which was wonderful and beyond delicious. The serving was large and the staff asked if we wanted extra rice as well. It was very authentic and overall such a yummy experience read more

Great tasting Indian food. Been coming to this restaurant for well over 20+ years. Love it.

The food here was great. We had various curries and naans and all were great. The service was incredible. We went on the night of the Super Bowl and they were so accommodating and appreciative of us being there. All of the staff were so friendly and made sure that water cups were always full and needs were always met too. The restaurant ambiance was that of a usual Indian restaurant. Would definitely go again. Thank you for a great night! read more

I'd get married here it's so Good . You feel like you're eating at home and can sit there as long as you want and feel comfortable. They are so friendly and I love it there. read more

I had a virtual meeting with my company last night and decided to go out and grab one last takeout before the Stay at Home order was issued. Since I wanted to go out with a bang, I chose one of my favorite Indian restaurants in all of Fort Collins. The ordering online process was simple, and they took all the credit card information so I didn't have to present anything when I got to the restaurant. After calling to confirm my pick-up time, I headed out into the empty streets of FoCo. There was one woman ordering takeout ahead of me when I got to the restaurant, so I waited to the side, an appropriate distance away. The gentleman working the register let me know that my food was ready - off to the side where the buffet stood lonely and empty. I grabbed that, thanked him, and headed back to my car where I sanitized my hands. Once home, I opened the precious bag - chicken saag, chicken tikka masala and saffron rice. Tantalizing aromas spun through the air, steam rising from my bowl. I generally order hot spice, but I decided to go for mild in case I needed to share with others. The saag still held a nice heat, enough to create small beads of sweat on my forehead, and the chicken was fall-apart tender. The creamy chicken tikka masala cut through that spice with its rich, almost slightly sweet flavor, folding together to create a perfect flavor balance. I demolished the bowl during the meeting (sorry for that sight, coworkers), and have already had leftovers for breakfast. I truly believe in supporting local as best I can, and was glad to be able to have the ability to support this wonderful place from afar. read more

My friend had Chicken Ticca Masala and loved it, as well as the fluffy rice, the naan was piping hot and so delicious. I had the vegetarian combo with spinach. Dahl and Chanda masala. Vegetarian combo came on a platter that reminded me of eating a banana leaf in Kerala Friends, friendly, staff, talented cooks, delightful lunch, in a pleasant and relaxing restaurant I highly recommend and we'll go back when I am in Fort Collins. read more

The quality of their food at dinner is not what it used to be. The service was excellent and they gave me bottomless servings of chai. Ambiance is nice still. Good location in Old Town area. I have yet to retry their lunch Buffett. read more

Solid food! They went above and beyond to make sure our order was perfect and delicious. Highly recommended.

Typical Indian restaurant, wasn't the best I've ever had but it was ok. Didn't really like how the chicken was cubed in the tikka masala but flavor was good. Naan was very good. Service was good. Children running around the restaurant is never a good experience but what can the restaurant really do about that.. read more

The best saag paneer I have ever had! The garlic naan was light and delicious, and the rice is fluffy and perfect! We will be going back. read more

The food is always amazing and comes out very quick. The service is amazing, every time we go we end up with the same server and he is really great at his job and has a really funny joke involving the spicyness of the food. Its always quiet in there which makes for a great dining experience. read more

The food is absolutely delicious!!! My favorite dishes are Shrimp Saag and Coconut Lamb Curry. I've never had a bad experience. Highly recommend!!! read more

Best Indian Ever! Every time we're visiting family in CO we make visiting Tajmahal a priority. We've tried multiple Indian restaurants in multiple states and this is our favorite. read more

First time here and they have great food! Service is amazing, clean, fast and Flavorful read more

The Tajj is an excellent resturant!! Mattie was so helpful with advise and bringing wonderful sauces to go with the buffet. My problem was to decide what the the next tasty bite to put into my mouth !! Wonderful lunch experience! As Arnold would say I'll be back. read more

Best Indian food in town. We just moved from California and are very happy to have found our spot since Indian food is both of our faves.

Pretty subpar Indian food, many dishes lacked salt. Inoffensive however and solid service.

Been there a few times now, I'll break it down: Selection: Even the kiddos found stuff they like at this place. Though if they're not as enlightened they have some kid friendly things they can serve your kids One of the few Indian food places I've seen that can do this, kinda nice that you really can eat here with the family. Even with pickier kids. Quality, awesome Chicken Tikka Masala, I'd suggest starting at a medium spice level there and work your way up :-) one of our kiddos feeling adventurous ordered the Chicken Korma mild, and loved it! Service: On the ball! Earned their tips. Prices: Reasonable and what I'd expect for Fort Collins. A bit premium but you get what you pay for. In short: We'll be back! read more

Great traditional Indian food. Brings back memories of Indian food on Devon Avenue in Chicago. This is my go to in Fort Collins. Bengan Bharta is the best anywhere. read more

I don't recommend to go to this Restaurant. It's not clean . I ordered biryani Lamb & Chicken.. they were greasy and the chicken and lamb were not cooked well. The chicken has its skin with it. And the portions were small. read more

Absolutely wonderful food (vegetarian friendly!), good prices and you get so much you'll have to take some home. Friendly service everytime I've been. 100% recommend. read more

Around the corner and up the street from the Drunken Monkey, we found this excellent restaurant during the "Great Plates," event. The only negative was the search for parking. We ended up parking three blocks away. On the plus side, everything else. The rice was seasoned with saffron. So luscious! I never use that word, but it fits here. The naan was warm and fresh, and there's a good selection. Atmosphere is comfortable, casual and nicely kept. We even had a Bollywood movie on the tv to watch if we wanted. For a Friday night it wasn't crowded and we didn't need reservations. We are definitely going again. read more

This is the best Indian food my partner and I have found since moving here! We drive all the way up from cap hill in the city because it's worth it. Service is always very kind. Great place to take friends when they visit too, especially for the lunch special! read more

Use to be good, had lunch the other day and it was ok, there is way better India restaurants out there then this place.

This is the best Indian restaurant in Fort Collins, no question. It may even be the best Indian restaurant in Colorado. Quite a claim, but here's a big reason why: they make the best saag paneer I have ever had! I have never traveled to India, but I have eaten saag paneer at many, many Indian restaurants across the US and UK. It's my favorite Indian dish... and Taj Mahal does it better than any other restaurant. The paneer itself is fantastic. Perfectly firm and rich and salty. And the curry is rich, creamy, and flavorful, without being over the top in any way. Saags seem to suffer from being either too watery (from excess liquid in the spinach), or too greasy (if too much oil and cream gets added). Taj Mahal hits the perfect balance. I am always trying to replicate it in my own recipe, and so far (while my efforts are getting tastier) I haven't even come close. Beyond the saag - everything about this place is great. All of their curries have amazing depth of flavor. Protein-wise, I would say go for veggie, chicken, lamb, then seafood, in that order. The servers are always super friendly and attentive. Could the dining room use a bit of a facelift? Probably, yes, but Taj Mahal could never change a thing and it will always be perfect. read more

The Taj Mahal is a fitting name for a restaurant that is a jewel and gathering place in Ft. Collins. The food is great and the service is wonderful. Whether you are dining in or taking out the experience is great. They also have an incredible lunch buffet. There are many traditional offerings in vegetarian or meat options. Any dish can be made vegetarian which is a plus. The curries are flavorful and deep in aroma and spices. The byrannis are great and they also have kebabs, rices, naan bread, and other authentic Indian cuisine. They also have a full bar for those interested in libations. My go to dish is the Saag Paneer wish Garlic Naan bread. I have never had better Saag Paneer than here. My wife lived in the UK and we've traveled all over the world and we always compare the Saag to here. I also love the Chicken Korma and on a hot day a mango lassi is sure to cool you off. The restaurant is well appointed and in an ideal location in the heart of Old Town. Service is fast and the food is fresh and amazing. read more

The absolute best Indian Food in Fort Collins. I keep hearing how goos the Star if India is. I lived in India fir 4 years. Star if India's food was awful. Went one time when they opened. Never again. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TAJ MAHAL. Best food ever. read more

Taj Mahal has fantastic Indian food and is my favorite in Fort Collins. I have been coming here for years because of my love affair with their sag paneer. I recently got carry out and did plain sag with 2 orders of naan and rice. The smell coming out of that little paper bag was almost too much for me to focus on driving safely home. When I got home I eagerly ate half the saag and rice. Creamy, spicy with the perfect blend of spices, I was really happy. The naan I handed off to the hubs which I couldn't believe he waited until the next day to eat but he ate it all. The next day I polished off my leftovers and they were almost as good. Saag is definitely better eaten the same day but it helped continue the happy juices flowing 24 hours later. read more

We returned to Taj Mahal after COVID lockdowns to celebrate a decade birthday, and we were simply enchanted! Service was impeccable with attention paid to full water glasses and superb chai cups. Food was excellent: sophisticated seasonings of five different and delicious entrees. Each person in our party expressed how superb the flavors were. Enjoyment was evident throughout our meals. Finally the house made chai is another delectable addition to the success of the Taj Mahal. We look forward to a return trip soon. read more

We've been here twice now and both times the staff has been friendly, service was fast, and the food was spectacular. Truly some of the best Indian food I've ever had, definitely recommend the biryanis and the lunch special! read more

First Indian restaurant we tried in Fort Collins! Maybe it's just a different cooking style than what we are used to but we didn't enjoy any of the curry we ordered (Tikka Masala and Saag) so we won't be returning. Lamb was also kind of chewy. Really friendly staff though! read more

EAT HERE! The food is incredibly amazing. We've had the chicken ticca masala, lamb saag, garlic naan and chicken coconut curry. Everything was flavorful, juicy, and perfectly cooked. The owner was so sweet and helpful, he gave us rice pudding and vegetable fritters on the house! (Both were excellent and well done - I have no idea what was in it but so tasty.) Also, if you're a chai tea fan, their house chai is the best I've ever had. Perfectly spiced, creamy, and as my sister said, the perfect cool weather drink. Stop reading this review and go eat there! read more

Delicious. I have ordered typical stuff like chicken tikka masala and garlic naan, but it's solid comfort food. And if you like your curry hot, they can accommodate. Good delivery service. Fast and painless. Not cheap but not much Indian food is. read more

Had a fantastic meal delivered last week. Hadn't eaten here for a while, but now I can't wait to order again. Ordered saag paneer and a chicken coconut curry. Highly recommend. read more

This is my first time in Fort Collins. I'm visiting from out-of-state and was craving really good Indian food and I was so happy I chose Tajmahal to try. I had the Lamb Vindaloo as a main entree and it was delicious. It also came with a generous portion of rice. The naan was perfect. I also really enjoyed the vegetable samosa for appetizer and yummy Kheer (rice pudding) for dessert. The servings were big enough for two people and reasonably priced. Casual atmosphere and the dining tables felt well spaced out. I really appreciated the great table service by my server, Kirtee. I had such a great dinner and experience that I want to come back for another meal before I leave Fort Collins. If you like Indian food, This is a restaurant you won't want to miss. read more

Great little find. Staff are nice and the curry is pretty dang good. Love getting takeout from here.
