Reviews for The Taj Cafe in Ventura, CA
The service was exceptional! The food was delicious everything from the rice, garlic Naan (recommended if you love garlic),... marsala to dessert was delicious! For drink I got Raj's favorite and it was great for cooling down spicy food. ???? 10/10definitely recommend Only con: the food is made when you order. This is a good place to go to eat when your with family to eatand talk and enjoy. It isn't the place to eat if you want fast food. Read more
#1 This restaurants service is probably the best I've received in my life. They gave us a free appetizer and dessert. The prices... being a bit pricey, I wasn't sure if I was going to dine in but the fantastic service immediately made it worth it. #2 the fooditself is fantastic, I got super good saag panner. Would 100% recommend this place to all . Read more

Absolutely delicious food. I've been looking for some good Indian food for a while. We tried the lamb korma and it's so good, I... can't recommend it enough. The sauce is full of flavor and the lamb is tender. We had it with the cumin rice and it works welltogether. We also got raita (yogurt) and if you get a spicy curry, I recommend getting the yogurt as it neutralizes the heat ifyou eat it with the curry and rice! The onion bhaji was delicious as well. We also got the cheese naan, which was interesting asit had cheddar cheese; it was good to dip in the korma. Next time, I'll try the garlic naan. Staff is nice, and they gave us acomplimentary ginger lemonade and chickpea dish. It's a little pricey, but it's quality food. Read more
Rich, creamy, herby, and anything under the sky to describe such a rich taste. This is my first experience of Indian cuisine and... I loved it! Our server was extremely attentive and helpful when it came to our meals. To our surprise we were given a plate offood on the house! The entire experience was very calming and gave off such a healthy vibe. Only complaint from this would bethe prices cause wow are they up there, arranging from 16.99 and up for a plate of curry that doesn’t come with rice on theside(sold separately). Even if the price is a bit up there I 100% recommend you introduce yourself into Indian cuisine here! Read more
Food was great and staff was very friendly. Got the chicken curry combo/thali, medium spice. Spice level was not bad but will... have to try it spicy next time. Maybe it was because I was alone or just not busy today, but they also gave me a complimentaryappetizer, some channa masala+samosa dish, and also some kheer. Both were good, kheer was very well spiced. Read more
Everything about this place is just SO, so good. The staff are all extremely helpful, attentive, welcoming, and kind. Like... seriously, everyone was clearing plates quickly and efficiently, great at understanding and recommending in light of foodsensitivities and restrictions, and were all flawlessly friendly and polite. Tons and tons of vegan and vegetarian options,which my family greatly appreciated. Great prices for the lunch specials, and really big portions (our choices came with garlicnaan, salad, and tons of rice!) The ginger lemonade was sparkling and sweet and perfect I had a favorite place in Sherman Oaksthat I had frequented for years before trying this place, and now I fully intend on making this my new place! Hands-down thebest Vegetable Masala I’ve ever had! Read more
