I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala (all food here is halal) and garlic naan for takeout and it was amazing! The staff are extremely friendly and answered all our questions with kindness and patience. The place itself has an authentic feel to it on the interior as well. I will definitely be back! read more

Came here on a whim after a previous restaurant gluten free options fell through. This place is the true meaning of everything happens for a reason. We were immediately greeted and shown everything that was gluten free. There were so many choices and everything is made fresh! This is the by far the best Indian and Pakistan food we have ever had. This place is absolute must try. Very clean, if you don't want to eat in, many people also get to-go. 100/10 read more

This is our first time here. The food is nice and spicy and they have a yogurt sauce you can add to your food to tame it a bit. They serve canned and bottled beverages and they offer free tap water. There is plain rice and a Biryani rice too. The pieces were clumped together... they really need to stir and keep the items looking good. They use warmers but I feel like the food was not fresh. There was a chicken curry dish that appeared to be boneless however there were small bone fragments that my husband had to pick out of his mouth. The Tandoori chicken was really pink inside but not sure if that was how it is supposed to look like... we have eaten it at a lot of places and that is not what I am used to seeing. The naan was very good. It is $19.99 per adult but not worth it for what was available. I think the most I would want to pay is &13.99. I cannot have tomatoes and there were several tomato dishes but I still had a few options available for me. I wish there was more food options. The appetizer was a fried piece of onion. I posted a video of the Buffett so you can see it! The guy who waited on us was really kind and professional and the restaurant was nice and clean! I love the booth it was very comfortable. read more

Wah Taj is amazing!! This Indo-Pak fusion restaurant replaced the old Indian restaurant "Sankalp". The inside is completely renovated and remodeled and looks so much better - way more modern. My group and I shared a variety of entrees - we tried the Paneer tikka masala, butter chicken, chicken 65, garlic naan, vegetable samosa & mango lassi. Every item we tried was delicious and everything was made to order - be patient when you order curries as they are making them fresh - no premade curries here. They can make the meals to your spice level from mild to very hot. The service was excellent - extremely friendly and happy to tell you about the chefs specialties or anything all the menu. Prices are very reasonable. I will definitely be back to try their lunch buffet ($20) and their wraps. Thank you Wah Taj! read more

I ordered a carry out order at 8:38pm and it said it will be ready at 9:08. When we came to pick it up, they had not even started the order. Around 9:20 they said it will be ready in 10 min. At 9:25 they said they don't have beef nihari and ask if goat is okay. We said that was fine but then at 9:30 they said they don't have goat nihari either but will make me another type of curry. They did not offer any complimentary items or any sort of discount. I paid full price just to get something I did not order, over 30 minutes late. This is unacceptable! I filled out a contact form on their site but no one reached out to me so I called them a week later. Whoever picked up told me to call again in 30 and ask for "Mike" instead of them calling me back. I still have not talked to anyone to resolve any of this. read more

I will start out by saying I am not an expert on Pakistani or Indian food. I do enjoy it somewhat frequently, and even make it at home from time to time, but am not an "expert". That being said, Wah Taj was not what I was looking for. They have a nice restaurant, with a nice interior, and very friendly staff. However, they also have small portions for the price and their recipes are all different flavor profiles than what I expected. Every dish that I tried (5 of them) tasted very different than other restaurants. Some may love it, but in each and every case, I preferred the traditional version compared to theirs. I want to reiterate, the people running this place seem to be extremely nice, and you may like their versions of these dishes, it just wasn't for me. read more

In town from SF Bay Area, found this place ... Delicious chicken biryani!! So glad I stopped in, hole in the wall place but clean, friendly staff, fast and fresh Indian/Pakistani food. read more

I stumbled upon this new restaurant at a local festival in Naperville. Apparently they just opened a month ago in the Mount Prospect area, and I'm so glad they came out this way! I got the food to-go, so the pics are featured as "take out", but I will definitely make the trip out (one of these days) to get some more photos of the ambiance and food. The biryani was fresh! The mutton meat is soft and tender, not too spicy, perfect taste. The kabob rolls are on point! Idk what's in the sauce but towards the end I found myself licking my fingers till it was all gone. I can't wait to try the other options on their menu. Give this place a try. 10/10. read more

This place hit the spot! I was outside working in the area & decided to take my lunch break and walked inside. The restaurant is nice and clean & The owner is so friendly. Everything you order is made fresh so rest assured, the food is amazing but will take on average 20-30 minutes to prepare your meal. They also have a buffet at this place which I'd love to come back in and try a lot more items. I only had the mutton Biryani that day. it was Amazing! The flavor & how tender the meat is; You can absolutely tell it was fresh off the stove! Give the spot a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

I went in for dinner with my fiancée. We split mirchi pakoda, kadai chicken, chana masala, gobi manchurian in gravy, and jeera rice. Everything was reasonably priced and the portions were generous. All of the food was made to order and exceptional. Each gravy was fresh, well balanced, and had incredible depth of flavor. The chicken and chickpeas were perfectly cooked and tender. The jeera rice was by far the best either of us have ever had. Our server was knowledgeable, attentive, and very charismatic. The atmosphere was inviting and relaxing. We absolutely recommend this restaurant and will certainly be returning. read more
