Agra Taj Mahal

This isn’t real Indian food. This is the slop Indian’s serve white people and pass off as Indian food.
But if that’s what you’re looking for, knock yourself out…

Hey all Indian cuisine lovers! You must come here! Best Indian food i ever had. And trust me I had a lot. Good food, service, and prices. I wish I lived closer!
5 stars from me!!!

All uninspiring… Vegetable Kurma, Chicken Tikka Makhuni, Malai Kofta

Just moved into the neighborhood and was stoked to have an Indian restaurant so close. Tried their lunch special and was very disappointed. The dishes were dirty, the food was really bland and they gave you tons of greasy rice but very little meat and even less sauce, the whole meal really left something to be desired, was not quality Indian food. Will not go back, if anybody knows a better Indian place in the area please let me know!

The best Indian food in Brooklyn
The chicken Vandaloo is very tasty and spicy the best !!! Service is quickly

The only Indian place in Greenpoint, does not disappoint. Get the peshwari naan for sure. Vindalloo dishes are very tasty. As is the honey chicken. I’ve also had the saag paneer which was delightful. I have a feeling this is more authentic than most. Not too much butter or salt or spices.
Service is top notch. Sweet guys.

I love Indian food– I’m so happy that this place opened up!
I have been here about a handful times– The food is amazing!!!
My favorites so far:
The Samosa are amazing!!! And the sauces are just the right amount of spice! The mushroom Bahaji is delicious! from the Naan I love the butter naan, or the plain naan– The less it has the better my favorite thing to do it dip the bread in the sauce from the main dishes that I get.
The chicken Masala is amazing– Must have. The chicken rezala is also good but not my favorite. The shrimp curry, shrimo vindaloo, lobster curry is also a must order here.
The food is amazing over all– I also recommend the Spiced Tea!!!

I have to agree with the general rating that this is above average, especially for the neighborhood.
I go for the veggie options. I seriously like the pakoras here. They are crispy fried and chock full of plentiful strips of veggies.
The chana shag (chick peas and spinach) is very tasty. I’ve had a couple of the mixed veggie curries and can’t vouch as to which is better (I’ve forgotten the difference) but most recently I tried the sabzi jal frazie (mixed veg in jal frazie sauce — sort of reddish curry) was pretty tasty, although a bit more celery than I’d prefer.
Prices are average and the décor is a decently nice sit-​down place. At around 7 PM on a Friday it was pretty dead, but started picking up. They seem to do a good take out business. Good service!

This place has great food. I’m from London so am pretty familiar with Indian ‘take out’. I’m not sure why it only has ³¹⁄₂ stars so am reviewing as I think it’s not representative of the quality. Maybe it’s the ambiance :/​not sure as I only order in. If you’re Looking for Indian food in the neighborhood, I highly recommend it.

Best in the neighborhood for the quality across a wide variety of dishes, as well as reasonable price. We order from them at least once a week. Consistently good overall.

I’ve been in Greenpoint a long time, and I can’t express how glad I am that these guys are here. We’ve had a few Indian restaurants come and go in this neighborhood and they’ve all been absolutely terrible.
Agra Taj is good. Not the best Indian food I’ve ever had, but it is consistently above average. Probably would be three stars if you are comparing it to the best Indian restaurants in NY. By Greenpoint standards, it would get eleven stars, that’s how much better it is than anything else we’ve had here. From my standpoint, that makes it 4 stars when you consider the price/​value/​convenience.
Service is good and the staff is very pleasant. On dining in we’ve often been given complimentary dal or dessert. Prices are reasonable and portions are good. I’ve eaten here or gotten take out more times than I can count and it is pretty consistently good. Naan is better in the restaurant than in takeout – probably no way around that.
We mostly get vegetarian dishes. I’ve gotten the meat dishes as well, and I’d suggest getting chicken if you want meat. The beef and lamb were a bit disappointing when I tried them.

I’m a huge Indian food fan, this place is by no means good! However, I’m giving it 3 stars based on the lunch I’ve had at other Indian spots in the neighborhood– this place is definitely one of the better ones.
I had the lunch special which was ok, and came at a good price. The chicken Vindaloo wasn’t bad! I’ve had it a few times now.
One night, I decided to be adventurous and go for the Lamb Dhansak (one of my favorite dishes) for dinner. It was terrible. The meat tasted old and rubbery, the dish was flavorless, and the texture was all wrong as they completely overcooked the chickpeas.
Stick to the chicken vindaloo lunch specials, I’ll stick to giving this place 3stars. (I’ll disregard the Dhansak nightmare for now :) Extra points for fast, friendly delivery still hot when it arrived at the door.

I didn’t have the best experience with this restaurant. I ordered a chicken tikka masala and I got some vegetarian thing instead. I called him and told him that they had made a mistake but they told me that I was wrong and that the order was correct despite the fact that I had the food in front of me and my order up and I made no mistake on my end. Deeply disappointed that they acted that way. They then hung up and told me they were trying to figure it out. When I didn’t hear back from them I called them again and then after some back and forth they said they would send my food. I’m still waiting on it as I write this. Please be careful when you use eat 24 to order from this place. They even gave me a choice of soups and I selected chicken but got mulligatawny instead. I don’t know if they don’t pay attention to their orders or if eat 24 just likes keeping listings of food that are no longer available.
As far as the actual food is concerned, whatever I did get was good. I got a cheese poori which was yummy.

This place is fantastic! The samosas are really delicious, and their raita has more flavor than most places. Definitely the best Indian food in the area.
Their delivery guys are really nice and always on time. Also, this place stays open late in a neighborhood where EVERYTHING closes early. Very necessary.

I love this place! This is my go-​to Indian spot for very important reasons: great tasting food, very quick and friendly service, inexpensive menu options, and location. I usually order the saag paneer or chicken tikka masala, but I’m positive that just as these two items are delicious, so is everything else on the menu. I love the crispy starter bread/​crackers they give you with sauces before the meal. The naans are made to perfection too. The place is quite small, but you never feel cramped or hovered over. It’s cute and perfect. I’ll keep coming back for more.

I love this place. I was only gonna give it 4 stars at first, but then realized there’s nothing negative you can say about this place — unless you’re gonna nitpick about superficial stuff like the discount-​bin décor or not having a sommelier in a suit slicing the corks off of champagne bottles. In this neighborhood, this restaurant is a great example of excellent quality, value, and taste.
Good food, good service, fast delivery, expectations consistently met. I have no reservations about ordering from this place at least once a week or recommending them to you.

Pretty good! Ordered sag paneer, spinach with cheese, and it was creamy. I got moderate spiciness and it was as advertised.
The naan was moist and fluffy, and wasn’t hard even the next morning. (Interpret that how you will).
They even brought out a piece of flaky bread for me while I waited to pick up my order.

Not bad, but not great. Had the takeout lunch special. Would have been nice if they included utensils. Hard to eat soup without a spoon.
Speaking of which, the soup was terrible. The chicken tikka masala was tasty, the rice was decent. The samosa was good as was the naan. I’ll be back for lunch again sometime.

We saw great reviews for Agra Taj Mahal and needed some quick takeout, so we headed around the corner. We walked in to place our order – chicken masala and chicken vindaloo plus a side of garlic naan. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Our order was reading within fifteen minutes, and they threw in some complimentary rice pudding. Both entrees had great flavor and were just spicy enough. I had never tried Indian rice pudding before. It was awesome – just like regular rice pudding, but with lots of cinnamon! It is definitely a new favorite! I will definitely be back for Indian from Agra Taj Mahal!

I’m pretty happy with this Indian option in Greenpoint. The best Indian in the area for sure (not many options in the area). I’ve never eaten at the restaurant, so my review is only in regards to delivery.
I’ve tried a variety of items on the menu now and most have been success meals. As a basic lunch, the chicken tikka masala is such a good choice, and the curry is topped with sliced almonds. And when I request it to be spicy, I can actually taste the added spice. Usually requesting a spicy curry comes mild at best.
Not mind blowing Indian, but a good cheap option for the lunch rotation. Friendly, fast, awesome lunch deal, and tasty. All good in my book. 3.5
