We went there for a dinner in a group of 20. Absolutely loved the service and the food was delicious. Staff was quick, lovely, always smiling and very polite. The owner, Sukhi, himself came to our table few times to make sure our food was okay. Highly recommend to anyone looking for authentic Indian food in Adelaide. �
Was in middle of fringe extremely busy. But that didn’t matter. Very quick service and absolutely delicious food. Had the Rogan Josh and Chicken Masala, rice, cheese naan and riata for 2. One of the best Indian meals I’ve had.
With its cosy interior and high ceilings, I can see why there is such an establishment on the ever popular Rundle St. Entrees included fish pakora, samosas (which were huge!), and chicken tikka. Mains included lamb korma, butter chicken, garlic naan, cheese naan, and roti (butter). The service was a bit slow, but cannot fault the quality of the food given the price and generous portion sizes. For a seemingly high end restaurant dishing up authentic Indian curries and Tandoori food, this place deserves more recognition!
Great dhal and Devine lamb tandoori. Well done! The best wine so far called mother’s milk 🤪. Yes you heard it right and it is really good. Just drop by and you will know what I am talking about
Entrees: Delicious samosa. The crispy baingan seemed a tad overcooked, but the sauce on top was tasty.
Mains: Butter chicken. Tender rogan josh, comfort food. Special mention to daal charcoal, so flavoursome.
Pulao rice was good.
Fab naan.
Attentive service.
We overate again.
I'd like to return to try some of the charcoal grill dishes.
I had a complete vegetarian meal(as my friend was vegetarian)at taj tandoor.
I ordered for dal charcoal(one of the best dal in adelaide i ever had),paneer chilly garlic (which was just average),rice (was just below warm),crispy baigan (tasty and amazing but its sauce lacked flavour).
Overall an average vegetarian meal,maybe next time i will try their meats.
While I am a lover of all things spicy, I decided to go with something mild. With my guests going for the typical butter chicken, I chose the Prawn Dakshen. SA Prawns sautéed in tomatoes, coriander, onion and a coconut cream. Boy oh boy, I cannot fault this dish apart from me wanting more! The texture of the sauce was fantastic, if it were socially acceptable to lick the plate clean, I would've done so! Highly recommend.
Beautiful flavours and authentic taste. Being an indian and a foodie i can vouch for this place. The restaurant is in a heritage listed Victorian building, which adds to the ambiance.
Nice character building and atmosphere. Been coming here since i was a teenager. Never disappointed. I Don't agree with some reviews about food not being authentic. i have tried almost every indian restaurant and have travelled to india, and no one came close to authenticity as taj tandoor. Recommended to anyone looking to try the best indian in adelaide.

This is one place I have overlooked for many years. Purely because I rarely choose Indian due to the bloated feeling resulting afterwards. However, I'm pinching myself now that I did not visit them earlier.
Set in a Victorian building with massive windows that overlooks the east end of Rundle Street, it provides an ideal spot to watch the world go by whilst tucking in to some Indian favourites.
For a Tuesday night, the place was rather busy, good indication that we could be in for a treat.
Upon entering, the place smelt amaZing! It made my mouth watered. This is their instant saving grace because the interior was a little tired with light fittings that appears dated. The beautiful handmade furniture could use a lick of lacquer to freshen it up. I personally was more excited by the exterior.
We were greeted and seated. Water was poured for all present. Papadums was offered. Our fifth member was running late, so we decided to order for her, seeing as we will be sharing anyways. Entrees consisted of the mixed entree, chicken tikka, samosas and prawn tandoori.
For mains, we had the saag chicken, butter chicken masala, fish curry, alu gobhi and prawn dakshen. All acompanied with rice and naan.
Everything was delicious! The chicken from both entrees and mains was tender and succulent. The fish was perfectly done. The prawns was also spot on. Didn't mind the vegetable dish, but wouldn't rate it too highly.
For desserts we shared the stickydate pudding and the cardamon with pistachio ice cream. Being a non-sweet-tooth, I found both desserts to be sickly sweet. Alot of H2O was required to chase away my potential cavity.
I'm unsure why this establishment was rated so poorly, because our experience reflected none of those negative reviews. For a place that values authenticity and fresh ingredients, it deserves a second chance. I'm looking forward to my next visit. Best part, no bloated feeling - WIN!
Great food. Super attentive waiters and staff. Is now my go to destination for eat out Indian. Got sick of the same old flavors from Indian restaurants. Was not disappointed when i left. I think the older, negative reviews are not longer relevant (except for the TVs!!!). Try it for yourself. Awesome!
Best Indian restaurant in Adelaide. I have recently visited Taj Tandoor. Best indian restaurant in Adelaide. Very friendly staff. We were well looked after. Great great great food.
Great wine selection.
Must try
Came here for an early dinner on Sat night. Was surprised by the generous serving sizes here. We ordered the deep fried mushroom for entree and 2 x curries and couldn’t finish it!
Flavours were good and loved the decor and ambience.
Very elegant Indian restaurant topped with wonderful service.
Would definitely return.

Was at this establishment for dinner with a date.
Excellent service - staff were friendly and responsive.
Ambience was apt - satisfactory lighting and seating arrangement for a nice intimate dinner, my only slight criticism was that I was a bit cold.
Food was excellent - started off well with some lamb racks that were wonderfully marinated and cooked, followed by Naans which were satisfactory and Curries that were full of flavour and spice, something that I don't frequently find in Indian restaurants in Aussie unfortunately.
To cap it all off, it was reasonably priced.
I would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a nice place to have some Indian food.
Great friendly staff welcomed us in very late at night close to closing and nothing was too much trouble, their only request was that we ordered everything at once - typical friendly Indian hospitality, very generous portions for a good price and came out in order all hot and fresh.
I loved the traditional flavours of the food, highly recommend the tandoori chicken it melts in your mouth with perfect flavours and mango lassi.
Very rare to find an Indian restaurant that ticks all the boxes for me (given my father is a chef and I grew up in his Indian restaurants) I would proudly recommend the meals and service at Taj Tandoor to anybody who visits Adelaide.
Fabulous Indian cuisine, friendly, very attentive staff and very cold beers. Great decor. Definately living the dream. I highly recommend this restaurant and will be back soon.
Despite my food arrived in 45 minuets which was only single curry with rice and Naan Bread, these guys deserve 5 star rating fro food and service. The lady manager was amazing, kind and know how to handle customers. 5 star for her.
Thanks food amazing food guys🙏🙏

After a long time i found a place in city which has good authentic Indian food. We ordered 4 curries, all were equally good. Naan was good as well. Just felt like they were bit understaffed on a Friday night.
Apart from that really loved the food.
Loved the food, I had the butter chicken was delicious, others had lamb korma, spinach & lamb dish, chicken ragout (?), rice and naan bread. Would recommend a visit
