TAJ MAHAL Indisches Spezialitätenrestaurant in Merseburg

After the unsuccessful search for a St. Martin's goose meal in Merseburg's old town, I strolled through the streets and was captured by the Taj Mahal. Indian spices are known to increase the appetite, which unfortunately I've lost more of these at the moment. I was warmly welcomed and given a table straight away. The restaurant was busy, even though it was a weekday. That speaks for itself. I could read on the map that the Taj Mahal has existed at this location for 20 years. From the outside there is definitely a palace-like impression. You can tell that the restaurant is well organized and professional. The menu included dishes typical of Indian cuisine, which were available in European mild and spicy versions. I also found the explanation of how the typical Indian spices work very nice. When it comes to drinks, you could always find an Indian version in addition to the local ones. I tried the Indian white wine, which of course also had a hint of spice. For the main course there was Papadam, a thin crispbread-like bread made from legume flour, pepper and cumin. Plus three spicy sauces. My favorite is the yogurt sauce with mint. The main course was well prepared and tasty and in a portion that was manageable even for women. The tables were set with new tablecloths after each guest. The price-performance ratio was absolutely balanced. I ate with appetite and spent a lovely evening here. All in all: recommended

Great selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes! Great selection of drinks - leaves nothing to be desired! Great atmosphere and super friendly service. Thank you and see you next time!

The food may be expensive, but it can be said that the taste of the dishes is the same everywhere

Good value for money and great food would be happy again

the best Indian in Saxony-Anhalt. The food was super delicious, every curry is highly recommended. Lassi and cocktails are top. The location in the middle of the city in the pretty pavilion is practical. park right in front of the door. and the team is friendly, accommodating. Price performance very good.

My first visit to the Taj Mahal, I am absolutely thrilled. Food is excellent, great price. Very friendly staff. Absolutely recommended, 1A +++++++++

A spontaneous dinner at this restaurant. We really liked the food and the service and would definitely recommend it.

Food was delicious, service was quick and courteous, ambience could use a kick, otherwise everything was OK.

It was my first time eating Indian food and I was skeptical but the food was really delicious. It convinced me. I've never eaten such juicy chicken before. Plus the ambience and friendly service. I'd love to come back.

Unfortunately we had to wait a long time for the food, there were other (larger) tables that came after us and ate before us. Unfortunately it was a shame. I wasn't entirely sure whether I had gotten "my" dish because I couldn't see or taste some of the very distinctive ingredients. Even though I felt like I was allowed to look for some of the ingredients, it was tasty. Due to the small dining room, the distribution of the tables seemed a little chaotic over the course of the evening, it became increasingly difficult to find your place and you were almost stuck in people's food while you maneuvered past each other - but I also think that the cut Building makes it difficult to distribute tables quickly and sensibly (due to the high number of guests).

An indescribable evening with the most delicious food! Thanks for that!

Highly recommended - very friendly service, great food, generous portions, nice central location.

You didn't dissapoint. The food was really good!

Food is really great But you really wait forever for it... Drinks also take a long time and are usually not really cold

Beautiful Indian restaurant in a very good location with a great view of the city of Merseburg. Very courteous and nice staff. Eating is quick and tastes very tasty.

Today it was really catastrophic, the restaurant was way too warm, you constantly had to get some fresh air. The lamb was dry and we had a stomach ache after eating it, the complete opposite of the last visit.

Great restaurant with very friendly staff. I absolutely loved the food. There was absolutely nothing to complain about. Price/performance ratio top. Waiting time completely ok. A visit is highly recommended!

The food is delicious and the service staff are very friendly

Real Indian food and real Indian restaurants. Vary rare in Europe find a Real Indian restaurant.

The food and service are very good. Although I didn't really want to try Indian dishes at first, after visiting here several times, I'm already somewhat impressed. Can really be highly recommended.

First-class food in the center of Merseburg, you can truly say the best Indian restaurant in the area, I haven't found a better one so far. There's nothing left to be desired in terms of cuisine, it's best to see for yourself. Price/performance is extremely good here!

Delicious Indian food. The dishes are reasonably priced and after eating them you didn't feel as bloated and full as in other Indian restaurants. Highly recommended. Nice terrace facing the church.

Nice restaurant, with great food and well presented. I always enjoy coming here. Keep it up.

Food very good. Unfortunately I can't tolerate Indian spices! But the staff is really friendly and the restaurant is clean and cozy!

Good restaurant. Friendly service, good food and drinks, nice atmosphere.

We have eaten at the Taj Mahal many times and it is always a pleasure. Even the vegan dishes are now specially labeled, which was the finishing touch for us. Sometimes it takes longer when it's busy, but it's definitely worth the wait! I could bathe in Allu Gobi Vegan and I can't get enough of it! Best where there is!!

As always, excellent and delicious food and always very friendly staff. Highly recommended!!

Great restaurant in the center of Merseburg

Very nice restaurant, centrally located in Merseburg. Indian ambience (as far as I can tell), attentive, quick service. I like coming here. It is also inexpensive.

Food good, service friendly, ambience okay.

On our way to the Czech Republic, we spent the night in Merseburg and ate at Taj Mahal. Very tasty food and for a good price!

Everyone will find something on the extensive menu, and vegetarians are not forgotten either. I was quite happy with my lamb curry and so was my partner with her cauliflower curry. We liked the place on the outside terrace and together with the non-alcoholic cocktail it was a successful evening.

Delicious. We'd love to come back. 👍

Mega delicious food, great service...it's not without reason that it's the best restaurant in Merseburg ❤️

I can recommend it for fans of Indian cuisine, you just need to have a little patience when waiting for the food.

Food is perfectly okay and the prices are reasonable. We had very good pakora, a bathura that was unfortunately a bit too limp and two good main courses. Everything came quickly and the service was very friendly. The seats outside were shaded and quiet enough, only smokers at the neighboring tables and the cars on the street, which was only moderately nice, spoiled the quality of the stay.

Everything was great, some restaurants could learn a lesson from it and would be happy to come back.

Today we spontaneously ended our beautiful day in the Taj Mahal. The service was super friendly and quick. The food was delicious as always. Everything perfect. Many greetings to the nice waitress, who always briefly informed us about the European Football Championship status ;)

I've eaten there several times in the last few weeks and it was very tasty. The service is nice and very fast.

It was very very tasty. Thank you.

Very cozy. Nice service. Food delicious. Good price-performance ratio.

Delicious. We'd love to come back

What else can I say. 5 stars are still not enough. Simply great, price, performance and ambience hard to beat. Proof that it works. We'd love to come back. Thank you for everything. Continued success

Wir haben hier angenehm auf der Terrasse gesessen, die Bedienung war sehr nett und aufmerksam. Vorab gab es sehr leckeres Papadam, der Lassi war richtig gut. Das Essen (Mutton Karahi und Murg Channa) bestand aus reichlich frischen Zutaten und zartem Fleisch. Weniger gut fanden wir, dass alles nur schwach gewürzt war - die von uns so geliebte Geschmacksexplosion exotischer Gewürze beim Inder blieb hier fast völlig aus. Dennoch ein sehr empfehlenswertes Restaurant mit fairen Preisen.

Very friendly service, clean. The food tastes good. We will definitely go there again, it is highly recommended.

Nice restaurant with delicious food. Highly recommended 😊

Heaven on earth, coupled with very attentive service and more than acceptable prices. Authentically seasoned and, especially for me, the vegetarian and vegan dish is simply delicious. Medium spicy is also exactly what we Europeans expect. Mango Lassie with Channa Massala and then a mango cream. Perfect!

Very tasty food. Operation and service is great. We've been there several times and can always recommend it.

The chai has no spices, is watered down and was served without sugar.

Nice & quiet atmosphere, friendly service, aromatic food, hardly any waiting time, portion size just right, not too overloaded. The only thing I would have liked for the Mango Lassi was that it only consisted of natural ingredients.

I ordered butter murg it would be really delicious 😋 one of the best experience of my life. and I can prefer to try it once🤩

Rarely have I eaten such delicious Indian food!!!! Well visited. Many options. Good portion size. It's a shame that a waiter didn't understand us very well when an Indian rum was ordered and asked for the bill.

Everything nice. Always delicious.

Food is good but nothing special. Service and atmosphere rather average.

Very tasty food very quickly and great service. Gladly again 👍🏻

Very good 👍. Good prices, great service and large portions. Very large selection and super tasty.

Pleasant environment, fast service, wonderful aromas and tastes.

The absolute blast! The food is fantastic, the place is cozy and the service is very pleasant.

Pretty much the best Indian food in a large area. However, the "very spicy" dishes are only spicy according to German standards, so not really traditionally Indian spicy.

It was my first time eating Indian food and I had my reservations because I don't like curry. There is a large selection of dishes and I tried the number 40 and was thrilled. Price-performance ratio is okay.

The food was ok, but the supposedly homemade lemonade that cost over €7 wasn't at all. (I can imagine it was from a can) It's a shame.....it's not that difficult to squeeze juice, even if it is from a can, you can't take 7 euros for it. Pretty small portions

A really nice restaurant. Service was great and there was little waiting time for the food. Food was very plentiful and simply delicious.

We have been there many times, ordered or picked up ourselves. The price-performance ratio is great. We really like the food and the portion size is also very good. We've also had a pickup where something was missing and a solution was easily found. Only recommended!

CLEAR RECOMMENDATION! We often go out for Indian food and have to admit that Taj Mahal has just become our No. 1. The dal was fantastic, the nans are really generous and tasty compared to the competition. There is also something to nibble on to shorten the waiting time. The food is also inexpensive and the portions are large. The service was also excellent, especially very attentive. We are thrilled and will definitely come back.

Delicious food with friendly service and a nice ambience.

A very, very pleasant experience, friendly service, excellent value for money and above all you feel really welcome, the employees know how to act in a relaxed and professional manner even in stressful situations

Great Indian restaurant Very nice staff Tasty Indian dishes Lunch menu inexpensive and varied Well centrally located in the city Sufficient parking available within a short distance

The food tasted very tasty, the waiters were somehow overwhelmed because it was relatively full. The prices for the food were completely ok.

The Taj Mahal in Merseburg is a real treat for lovers of Indian cuisine and offers outstanding value for money. As soon as you enter the restaurant, you will notice the special ambience, which immediately impresses with its authentic atmosphere and stylish details. The menu offers a diverse selection of delicious Indian dishes, with main courses available at surprisingly affordable prices starting at just €14. This combination of quality and price makes the Taj Mahal an attractive destination for foodies who value an affordable dining experience. What makes a visit to the Taj Mahal particularly pleasant is the extremely friendly and courteous service. The staff stands out not only for their professionalism, but also for their warm nature, which makes guests feel welcome. I felt like I was in good hands throughout my entire visit and was able to enjoy the culinary journey to the fullest. Overall, I can fully recommend the Taj Mahal restaurant. It combines excellent food, a pleasant ambience and excellent service to create an all-round successful gastronomic experience. Anyone who loves Indian food and values ​​a pleasant price-performance ratio will certainly get their money's worth here.

We have been your guests several times and it has always been delicious and we have been very satisfied. Ordered a table today for Valentine's Day and we discovered that it was a complete disaster. It was like a waiting room where all the tables were occupied and the next people who made reservations had to wait between the people who had eaten until they were finished eating so they could sit down. In the end we left without eating because that has nothing to do with service. Our trusted restaurant once again saved our evening. Best regards Patrick and Diana

The food is great for anyone who can handle extra-cultural things, but I would die for the mint yogurt dip. It's really good and the staff is very attentive and accommodating. Even when it's busy, they manage to serve you your food quickly and to a high quality. The atmosphere is also very pleasant. I can simply recommend it.

It was okay, but nothing more. I was expecting more spicy food when you go to an Indian restaurant.

Empfehlenswerter Ort für einen Besuch

There's really delicious food here, we really liked it, we'll be back. And we did it again.

Unfortunately the food wasn't really seasoned well. We used to enjoy going there, but will now look for a new restaurant.

Very friendly staff, food delicious and meals large enough

Best restaurant in Merseburg! Very great selection (including vegan dishes) and very high quality. The service is very attentive and incredibly friendly. After eating you always feel comfortably warm and full in your stomach, feel really good and look healthy! Everything was great - 100% recommendation! Come back!

Was very 😋. Can only be recommended. We would be happy to visit the location more often.

Had dinner for the first time today and we were very positively surprised. ♥️ Food sufficient and extremely tasty. Very comfortable sitting right next to the heating 😉 food and drinks arrived quickly and the staff was super friendly. 💞 We'll definitely be back. See you soon 👋🏻

Wir waren hier zum Abendessen zu Gast, das Personal ist sehr freundlich und umsichtig. Das Essen war sehr gut. Wir kommen sehr gern wieder

Habe heute das erste Mal Indisch essen probiert...., wer's mag, mein Fall ist es nicht wirklich.....

Wir waren dieses Wochenende mit 4 Personen hier Essen. Den Tisch hatten wir vorher bestellt und die Uhrzeit später nochmal verschoben. Man reagierte sehr flexibel und alles hat sehr gut geklappt. Das Gebäude und die Innenausstattung hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Die Getränke hätten etwas schneller kommen können. Das Essen hat uns alle begeistert. Wir hatten 3 verschiedene Gerichte. (Mit 4 Personen) Sehr schmackhaft und reichlich. Mein Rotwein hatte genau die richtige Temperatur. Wir kommen sicher wieder.

War alles sehr lecker....es lohnt sich...

Das Essen war super lecker und die Portion war sehr groß. Die Bestellung kam sehr pünktlich an. Kann man nur empfehlen.

Sehr leckeres Essen, moderate Preise, freundlicher Service, nettes Ambiente.

Sehr schön eingerichtet. Das Personal ist freundlich und schaut, dass jeder Gast zufrieden ist. Das Essen ist sehr lecker. Also sehr empfehlenswert. Leider sehr laut in der Gaststätte. Man kommt sich vor wie in einer Bahnhofshalle. Deshalb einen Punkt Abzug.

Mega Lecker Preis Leistung super. Sehr zu empfehlen jeder Zeit wieder.

Wir wollten uns nach einem langen Tag mit gutem indischen Essen belohnen und sind nicht enttäuscht worden. Sowohl das Ambiente als auch der Service und nicht zuletzt das Essen hat uns sehr gut gefallen.

Essen leider scharf ,obwohl in der Karte mild stand. Konnten es leider nicht essen.

Wir waren auf der Durchreise spontan hier. Das Essen war klasse!. Wer indisch mag wird es hier lieben. Wenn wir wieder einmal in der Nähe sind, kommen wir wieder!
