Cafe Taj Restaurant Review

Years may pass, but time does not diminish the luster of this tiny Indian eatery. Its soothing décor and on-target dishes appeal to its large suburban fan club. The restaurant is especially busy at lunchtime, when local businesspeople line up for the lavish buffet. Plan to start any meal with an appetizer of vegetable pakoras or samosas. Any of the breads are special, but the house naan stuffed...

Long time favorite, but they could do better

We have enjoyed Cafe Taj in McLean for almost 15 years, eating there a few times a year. It has consistent and reliable cooking, represents several different cuisines of India, and is a good value. But, like most restaurants after a while, some things might need a second look -- it's all about meeting expectations, after all. In our most recent visit, the "Tandori Lamb Chops" were delicious as...

3.5 stars I was about to downgrade Taj to one star. In the last year or so, they had halved the size of the already small lunch buffet to accommodate one or two extra tables. The downsized buffet...

We have been going to Cafe Taj once in awhile in the past few years. The lunch buffet is cheap. I usually only need to have naan, butter chicken and tandoori chicken in an Indian buffet, so I...

Two words - "Keep Away". The cook(s) back in the kitchen may not have tasted, seen or cooked Indian dishes before. Same sauce for all the dishes, Biryani made out of non-Basmati rice, no idea...

Business description (7) view all

Cafe' Taj can be found at Beverly Rd 1379. The following is offered: Restaurants: Indian. The entry is present with us since Sep 9, 2010 and was last updated on Nov 14, 2013. In McLean there are 1 other Restaurants: Indian . An overview can be found here.

Since 1992 the company has been providing Retail - Indian/pakistan Restaurant.

At Cafe Taj everything on the menu is made fresh daily and everything is made from scratch. They serve creamy Indian curries, tandoor dishes, lamb chops, smoky salmon and flavorful vegetarian entrees. Open daily.

“Flavorful” Indian food that’s “not too spicy” and “doesn’t cost a king’s ransom” brings this McLean neighborhood stalwart a “large carry-out trade”; its dining room (“more elegant than many”, if a “little run-down”) offers a “decent buffet lunch” and is “quiet enough for conversation with dinner.”

Cafe Taj Restaurant opened in 1992 and is still going strong with a huge local fan following. Located in the Marketplace plaza, Cafe Taj serves delicious Indian food, from rich curries to ambrosial grilled meats and seafood cooked in the tandoor and yes the sweet scented sweets such as the mango lassi, kulfi and more. Known for their super affordable lunch buffets, you will find yourself in a...
