If you haven't tried the new India Restaurant (Taj) then you've never lived. It opened last week in the old Coco's Chicken place opposite The Corner Shop on the Aljambra road. We went last night and had the best Indian meal for years. Everything about it was class, the presentation was superb, the ambience was very good, the service was spot on. We had been given a temporary take-away menu last week and we had presumed it was the full menu so were surprised to find the official one was almost twice as big. That was the best biryani I've had. This is certainly the best Indian without a doubt. :clap: :clap: :clap:
Friends went on Friday lunchtime and had the special 9.95e menu and were very pleased. We are going for Tuesday lunch so hope it remains at this standard.
Do they do a Menu Del Dia?
Four of us went last night and we all had a different meal. All of us agreed that it was superb and we will be going back soon. The meal, service and general appearance is very, very good.

Yes, they had a board outside last night showing details.
My husband and I managed to get away from the bar for a couple of hours last night and also went for dinner here. I must agree it is one of the best Indian meals I have had.
Where is this at please ? Albox or arboleas ?
Albox - see my initial posting for whereabouts.
Is the speciall 9.95 menu available in the evening?
Is a drink included?
When do they begin serving in the evening?
Thanks, Lynne!

Oh dear, now you want me to start using my brain AND memory when I'm suffering from flu! :lol:
I'm sure the 9.95€ menu is only at lunchtime. We've only been in the evening so can't answer the one about the included drink for that price. They open at 6pm, which was when we went. Would like to go again this week but both battling the dreaded lurgy so neither of us can leave the house. :'(
Are they the same owners as THE TAJ in Turre?
Went last night. Food very good, but only full priced menu in the evening. Poppodum, starter, main course, rice, coffee and a drink could easily come to €20 pp although they do have a €35 menu for 2 (didn't see what was on it). We'd definitely go in the daytime and try the €9.95 menu as the food was very tasty and portion sizes good, but does it beat the New Delhi on value for money? Not for us.

I went the other night and enjoyed the meal. The service was a little slow—they were busy—but on the whole I prefer the food at the New Delhi. I always enjoy going there (New Delhi) and love their food. I know my Indian food, I have been eating it regularly for around 40 years and I have eaten it in India.
We tried it as well and prefer the New Delhi, the curry's were OK but the Naan's weren't a patch on the New Delhi. Also I had a glass of red wine and it is one of the really cheap ones unlike the new Delhi where the house wine is a reasonable Rioja.
Everyone's taste is different though...
Just arrived home from the Taj, thoroughly enjoyed the meal , cost us 35 euros per couple including either a bottle of wine or 2 large beers.
The place was full which I thought was very good for a Wednesday night and the waiting staff were excellent.
Went in a group f six and had a great meal. The 35 euros per couple includes any starter, main and desert off the menu x 2 including wine or beer, so good value. Delicious food, good professional service and beautifully presented. It's just nice to have a change of venue!
We went on Tuesday night and everything was nice and ok but it seemed expensive, we shared 1 starter (onion bhaji), free popadoms, 1 tikka and 1 korma (did have king prawns), 1 rice and 1 naan. 2 drinks each (2 beers & 2 wines) it cost 43e.
Prefer the one in Zurgena.

I have always loved the new Delhi & we were going last night but have heard a lot of bad comments the last two weeks.....from regulars. I wondered if they had changed chefs.
Has anyone got a phone number so we can book a table? Thanks
We went again to the New Delhi last night and the meal was amazingly good. I don't know if the chef has changed but can say that there has been no drop in the food quality.
