Taj Mahal Indian Restaurant — Restaurant in The Hague

Warning for tourists and anyone who wants to eat here. As a good customer who has spent a lot in every area, I have had very bad experiences with this restaurant. Don't rely on the good experiences in the reviews. Someone pointed out these two reviews to me where the owner responded very strongly to his own review. It concerns exactly the same text and story, from someone of different gender??? The reviews are chronogic also months apart! Here is a task for Google to intervene because the owner manipulates the ratings to mislead customers and tourists! There are real reviews where customers have even been physically attacked! You also get very bad bills without a date or they force you to pay in cash, if necessary by force! these are all signals of tax evasion! I have reported this to the tax authorities! You are also billed for thing you never had. Once confronted with it the owner will lie, because that is what he is best at. Never go to this place is my advice to any normal thinking intelligent person. Close this place down please because This restaurant also has a few mice running around. I have seen them myself. The truth is not something they want to hear once confronted with it. Please sew me for slander and libel, we will speak to one onother in court. The facts are partly presented by these photo’s. Which contain meta and exif data. I am IT expert myself, not only developed software but also know...

Don't go here. The staff is rude and physically fight with customers. I reserved a table and when we arrived the staff wouldn't seat us at the table. He put us by a cramped bench corner by the door. The restaurant was also quite empty so i have no idea why he wouldn't let us sit at a real table. We kept trying to explain that we have a reservation but he didn't listen to us.

A few minutes later, a fight happened between 2 male customers and the entire staff. The chef came out and started yelling at the customers and the waiters started violently pushing and punching these 2 customers, saying racial slurs at them. They kept saying they were going to teach them a lesson!

I suspect the fight was about the customers having a reservation, being seated on the bench like us but they wanted their table anyway. The staff got angry and started attacking them. Can't say for sure but this is what we gathered from the confrontation.

We immediately left as we saw the 2 customers outside calling their friends to come over and we didn't feel safe there. But I'm glad we didn't eat there. The place is old and small, carpeting smelled musty but menu was expensive. We went to Maharani instead - highly recommend! Maharani has way better service...

We recently had the pleasure of dining at Taj Mahal Restaurant in The Hague, and we cannot praise the experience enough. From the moment we walked through the door (for many years now), we were always greeted with warmth and hospitality.

Jamal, the owner, created not just a restaurant, but a true culinary haven. His passion for authentic cuisine shines through in every dish. Each bite is a delightful journey of flavors, meticulously crafted with the freshest ingredients. The rich, aromatic spices and the perfectly balanced dishes reflect Jamal's exceptional skill and dedication to his craft.

Our favorite dish that particularly stands out is the Chicken Palak which is a perfect representation of the restaurant's high standards. The presentation is impeccable, and the taste is nothing short of incredible.

Jamal's commitment to excellence is evident in every aspect of Tab Mahal. It is rare to find an Indian restaurant that excels in both food and service to such a high degree. Whether you’re a local or a visitor to The Hague, a meal at Taj Mahal is an absolute must. What we like most - its authenticity. Real Indian food.

Thank you, Jamal, for providing such an extraordinary dining experience. We look forward to our next...
