we ate in on Saturday night. First time for most of us but some had been before and had recommended. Those that had been before ere embarrassed. When we arrived at around 6.45 there was already at least 5 people waiting for takeaway. We later worked out that these guys were delivery drivers presumably for home deliveries ordered on line. They and many that came after them waited and waited, some for what seemed like an hour or more for food to be provided. The guy that was manning the front desk eventually just left his post. Nobody answered the phone which just continued to ring. We got entrees early but then mains did not come until about 8.45, almost two hours after we ordered. We had 7 k...
I have been dining at Taj Bengal for 20 years, usually on a fortnightly to monthly basis, and I can honestly say, I have never had a bad meal. I have invited all of my friends and family to dine with me, and none have been disappointed - I have also recommended it to others, with glowing reports coming back to me. I have travelled through India, and find the flavours of Taj Bengal similar to those in Indian dishes - westerners like more sauce, so be it. I have a Prawn Madras, my partner has a Beef Madras, both sauces taste totally different, as all meals are made fresh. My other favourites are Vindaloo, which they do perfectly, especially when accompanied with Raita, pickles and indian salad...
We were a group of four adults who went to the Taj Bengal for Fathers' Day lunch 2016. Surprisingly, the restaurant was almost empty, however when we've eaten there during evenings it has been packed.We ate Lamb Khorma, Kashmiri Roganjosh, Butter Chicken and Ceylon Chicken. Saffron Rice came with the curries plus we ordered some Roti and Naan.The owners of this restaurant are Tamil and therefore that is the style of Indian cooking available here.Our meal was very good. The meats were extremely tender and the curries were tasty. We couldn't finish all the food and the owner was happy to package it up for us to take home. We ordered them to be medium heat, but to my taste, that was actually mi...
Got takeaway this evening from Taj Bengal, phone ordered around 6.20 and was told 40 minutes. Turned up at 7 and was told to wait a few minutes. Which I did happily and I left with our dinner at 8.15. The service almost non existent.Firstly the fact that I was told at 7pm I would only have to few minutes was blatantly untrue. The 12 or so people waiting should have suggested a problem to me I guess, and by about 7.30pm most were still there plus about 10 more. Secondly there would appear to be a clear order of priority - if you sit down you get a meal, if you do Uber Eats you will get a meal. Then the conventional takeaway people get a look in. And finally, with the takeaway buyers hanging a...

Whenever we think about having Indian for dinner, our first thought is of Taj Bengal. The children are fans of their Butter Chicken, and we adults choose options such as Ceylon Lamb or Beef, or a Vegetarian Dahl.We have eaten in once or twice, but were convinced that the portion sizes were much smaller. We felt full after that meal, but with the take-away there seemed to be sufficient for leftovers the following day, or at least this was the case until recently.Our last order was in January, and unfortunately on that occasion the take-away portions seemed to have shrunk in size. The container for the "large" Butter Chicken for example, was noticeably smaller and there were no leftovers from...
We are four friends who venture north side of Brisbane city in search of the best curry house we can find.Within our review, we consider the following as part of our overall verdict and score /5 ( 5 being best)- ambience (decor and feel if the place) -2- service (time) -2- service quality (asking for recommendations) -3- food quality (presentation, amount and meat quality) -4- curry heat and flavour -3.5- price -3- curry hangover-2.5- overall experience -3Visit the bad uncle curry club in The Gap Brisbane.Last thoughts- if you fancy a pretty bod standard curry night. This is it! Wouldn't go to impress for a date or business meet. Would say low cost or excellent value. However, the quality of...
We have been getting takeaway from Taj Bengal for the past 10-15 years and haven't found any Indian restaurant in Brisbane that compares. (occasionally we do try another Indian restaurant but we always come back to the Taj Bengal) Today I had a small get together for my business and ordered 12 curries, half meat and half vegetarian - everyone raved about the curries and nothing was left. I was even given a couple of complimentary raitas, which I didn't expect, but was appreciated by the guys as the hot vindaloo was VERY hot. I have always had very good service from the owner - even if it was average service I'm there for the amazing food, not to make a new best friend. If you can overlook se...
This restaurant looks unassuming and its location is not glamorous either, but you would be mistaken to pass it by. The service is great, the portions enough for dinner and take-away of leftovers, and the food is absolutely delicious. If you like Indian food, don't miss out on this restaurant.

We went to for a late lunch- met with very unfriendly customer service. The baldy man was very rude. Loved the food but I'm not coming back to a place where you are not welcomed with a smile.
Fantastic family restaurant: both dine in and take away are excellent. The staff are always friendly and the cuts of meat are good.
