Discussion of Robin Garr's Taj Palace review

Learning and liking Indian food at Taj Palace
Voice-Tribune review by Robin Garr

Just about everyone knows what an omelet is, and the difference between “easy over” and “sunnyside-up” is a mystery to only a few.

As Louisville’s dining scene has grown and our restaurant roster become diverse, we’ve learned more and more. Marinara or alfredo? Easy. Corn or flour tortilla? Ditto!

But when it comes to Indian food, most of us are still learning. What’s a korma? A saag? A vindaloo? Want to learn Indian food vocabulary fast? I suggest a visit to the buffet at Taj Palace.

Taj is the third generation of India Palace, which started back in the ‘90s in an old motel in the Outer Highlands; then it moved out to Shelbyville Road. Now, sporting a new name, it is comfortable in the spacious quarters that briefly housed Seviche’s suburban expansion a few years ago. Taj’s owners retained Seviche’s elegant look, with beamed ceilings, rose-colored walls and burgundy tablecloths to provide classy style.

I’d rank Taj Palace in the top tier of local Indian eateries on the basis of well-fashioned food, the aforementioned scene, and friendly, fluent service that’s right on the spot even in the self-service setting of its daily lunch buffet, all you can eat for $8.99.

This is our "go to" Indian restaurant given the quality of food and location. Nice review.

East End outside of the Watterson, but not afraid to travel for good grub

Taj Palace has always been my "Saturday Errands and Lunch" place for it's wonderful, and very affordable, buffet.....

Now, that's not to say I still don't think Dakshun is good, but Taj is closer.
If life's a Banquet, what's with all the Tofu?

Cheers!
