Ancient Traditions for a Modern World...

Experience the lush and exotic flavors of
Indian food at Taj Palace

Taj Palace has long been Austin's favorite dining experience. Owners Ajay and his wife Kiran, were both raised and educated in the art of Indian cooking and hospitality in New Delhi, India. Opening Taj Palace in 1990, the couple gave many Austinites their first taste of intriguing tastes of India. The public responded with numerous awards for Best Indian and Best Buffet in the Austin Chronicle's well-respected "Best of Austin" awards, year after year.

Taj Palace is unassuming from the outside, a step inside, calm and inviting, and most of all - transporting.

Soothing tabla and sitar music, beaded curtains and colorful hand-painted lanterns welcome you as formally dressed waitstaff deliver North Indian dishes and intriguing relishes in a variety of platters, ramekins, and shallow bowls with carved handles.

The restaurant is a lovely, inviting escape from contemporary pressures. And the owners, chefs and staff are devoted to their craft and in sharing the wonderful mysteries of Indian cuisine with the community.

Elegantly presented, Taj Palace offers dozens of exciting dishes, with an enticing array of vegetarian selections as well. Tartly sweet tamarind, coriander, almond cream and dozens of other suprising essences appear in every course. Lamb and chicken are marinated in yogurt and spices before slow charcoal roasting in an authentic clay tandoor oven, the results are juicy, lean and healthy. Abundant vegetables and seafood appear in basmati pilafs and baked dishes. Try the Navrattan Korma of garden vegetables, nuts and raisins in an aromatic cream sauce or the Bahar-e-Subz of assorted vegetables blended with traditional spices in a kadai, a wok-like skillet with fluffy fragrant basmati rice and fresh peas. For a hot and spicy treat, prawns and fish are sauteed with chilies, onions and peppers in the Seafood Bhuna.

Consistently luxurious, Taj Palace transports you to the exotic Far East and offers the perfect distraction from work, as well as a healthy and ethnic dining alternative. Not only does Taj Palace have a beautiful private dining room, but is available for on-site catering ... let us bring the Tandoori oven to you!
