“ Blue Taj was incredible! The staff were attentive and efficient, the restaurant was cozy and not too loud, and the food was absolutely delicious! I ordered the shrimp tandoori and my friend ordered the lamb chops and both dishes were phenomenal! The lamb was especially delicious with the garlic naan. ”
“ Our waiter was very nice and made sure my meal was vegan and free of bell peppers (allergy). The masala idli was absolutely delicious! I wish the aloo gobi had more potatoes but it was also quite good. Thank you! ”
“ Incredible Food, Warm Vibes – A Must-Try! First visit to Blue Taj and it is an absolute gem! The food is authentic, flavorful, and very fresh. I highly recommend the chicken Korma or Chicken Vindaloo —tender and perfectly spiced. The lamb rogan josh was tender and full of depth, and the garlic & bullet naan was spot on. Every bite felt like comfort food elevated to a fine dining level. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, and the service was top-notch—friendly, knowledgeable, and never rushed. You can tell the staff really care about the experience they’re creating. Whether you’re new to Indian cuisine or a longtime fan, Blue Taj is a place you’ll keep coming back to. Don’t miss it! ”
“ Wow!!! what a great place in Ambler - and BYOB. I am not very experienced with Indian food and the staff was great with explaining everything and making suggestions. The food was phenomenal. The service was spot on. Fresh baked Naan bread was to die for... Highly recommend. I will be back. ”
“ High quality Indian cuisine. I like garlic naan a lot and both lamb and goar curry are great. Chicken tikka is spicy but satisfying. ”
“ This was my first time visiting Blue Taj and my first time trying Indian cuisine. I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed it! The restaurant was clean, the customer service was superb and the food was delicious! I am a vegetarian and there were plenty of delicious vegetarian options. Everything about this place was great! ”
“ The best Indian around for us. My wife and I enjoyed samosas, papadum, naan, and two different curries tonight and the flavors are wonderfully bold. Small place, so make a reservation. Also, remember it’s BYOB. The service can be a little too fast for a date night but if you share your timing preferences they will adapt. ”
“ I have been enjoying Blue Taj, formerly Palace of Asia for almost 20 years. The authenticity and quality of the food is unmatched. You can't go wrong with any item on the menu. It is the best Indian restaurant in the area hands down. We go several times a month and it has never disappointed. My favorite restaurant in the area hands down!!! Manu, the owner, takes pride in everything he does, and is always there with warm welcome. If you have never been to Blue Taj, you need to give it a try ASAP! ”
