Taj Palace is an Indian Restaurant and Bar located on the West Side of Las Vegas Nevada. They are open daily for lunch (11am-3) and daily for dinner (5pm-10:30). They offer a menu selections of vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, and Halal. For lunch they also offer a buffet.
Inside is a mix of traditional tables, booths, and bar seating.
We decided to try the buffet for lunch.
There are four different chicken dishes (Tandori, Tikki Masala, Chile, Curry) Many vegetarian pans, and goat.
We also received hot butter garlic naan bread that is tasty.
Here is my first plate.
I Tried Tandori Chicken, Curry Chicken, Chile Chicken, Tikka Masala Chicken, Chana Masala (chick pea curry), a Spicy Okra vegetable dish, a potato dish, and a vegetable samosa pastry. Just like at any restaurant I liked some things more than other things. I do have to give them credit because all the food seemed fresh (unlike at most buffets) and all the chicken dishes did have moist tender chicken. As far as flavors go the food seemed less Indian seasoned than what I have been served at other Indian restaurants. My favorite bite was the vegetable samosa. Maybe because I used chutneys on it and I should have used more chutney on the other dishes. My least favorite bite were the potatoes….but not because of taste. The texture of the potatoes was very strange and almost powdery inside.
I did take a second plate.
I did take another vegetable samosa and a little more Chile chicken. I thought the vegetable tikka masala tasted better than the chicken tikka masala. Didn’t care for the Medu Vada (lentil vegetable doughnut)
Just like any other restaurant out there you will like some things better than other things.
That was my trip to Taj Palace.
