Taste of India no more – If you thought the chef was gone before, he is definatly gone now, along with the original owner/manager. The food is all different, from the naans to the cinnamon iced tea, nothing tasts like it use to. The service has also dropped, and that is not a small issue since the service at this place was always marginal. It is way off the mark now. I have been going to this place for around 10 years, I see no reason to ever go there again.

Very pleasant hostess – We were looking for Indian food. My wife can't eat wheat products and Indian food meets that need. I did a search for locations near where we live and this one came up. As we drove to the location I read some of the reviews on my Treo. Some were so negative we almost drove away. I'm glad we didn't. The service was polite, quick, pleasant and professional. The hostess made a point of bringing lentil flour crackers as an appetizer for my wife. The food was prepared quickly and was very good with all the... read more

Love this place, make reservations for large parties! Great beers on tape – I have known the owners for the past 10yrs they are friendly and accommadating to your needs. Unlike other restaurants, they use fresh produce and the food is cooked freshly each morning. They have a very clean establishment and is serviced for any insects every month by a licensed pest control company. They never pass any racial remarks infact it's the other way round. Customers think THEY have the right to insult the staff and treat them like serva... read more

Once the best; now one of the worst – They must have hired a new chef because this restaurant was the best Indian restaurant in Phoenix. I dined there a year ago and I couldn't believe how horrible the food was. It was as if they completely transformed. The chicken tikka masala was very watery and tasted like they poured milk in it. The palak paneer was runny. The naans were tiny and to top it off the service was bad. They are very arrogant and are finally developing a reputation for being arrogant when in the past people fo... read more

Maybe one of the most affordable passages to India. – In Short Phoenix is big on food that can make it sweat. Those whose faces light up for curries and vindaloos should try a Taste of India. There's a little bar with English beers (for homesick Brits weaned on curry) and a menu that can satisfy a hot-tooth. Try the benghan bhartha, palak paneer, tandoori chicken and garlic naan.

Average tasting food and limited selection – We went for the lunch buffet and were somewhat disappointed. There were only 3 meat items and 3 veg items on the buffet. Nothing tasted bad but nothing stood out as great either. Nothing had any spice (pepper) to speak of. Service and ambience were fine for a lunch buffet.

Service was not good – The resaturant had good ambience but the service sucks. They don't know how to speak to customer.

We liked it but the service seemed Off – Maybe we caught them on an odd night but the service seemed slow and inconsistent. The food was great and they let us pick the level of spiceyness. The price was good too. We will give them another try.

always delicious indian food – I've enjoyed going to Taste of India since I was first introduced to it almost ten years ago. From the tandoori chicken to the various tandoori breads and many vegetable, meat, chicken and seafood entrees, my experience has always been very delicious! I highly recommend them as an Indian resturaunt. the ambiance could be better, but I have not yet been anywhere with better Indian food.
