Taj Mahal


If you’re looking for some of the best authentic Indian food in the Pittsburgh area, then Taj Mahal in the North Hills is the place for you.

What I’m going to write in this post is going to come mainly from personal experience, because my family and I frequent this restaurant often whenever I’m home from college. It’s really close to my dad’s house. I’m actually 50% Indian on my dad’s side, so I’m used to eating a lot of Indian food (I’m mostly used to eating my grandmother’s, and she makes DELICIOUS Indian food.)

Taj Mahal has a menu consisting of several traditional Indian dishes, like samosas, naan, chicken curry, mango chutney, etc. However, in addition to their regular menu, they have a buffet which is open during both lunch and dinner hours. It has a variety of dishes that you can get on the main menu. I think most people get the buffet when they go to Taj Mahal, because it’s quicker and more efficient. Not to mention, it provides more of a variety, which is great if you only like certain types of Indian food (I’m definitely that way, in fact I didn’t really like Indian food at all until I was about 12 or so.) In all the times my family has gone to Taj Mahal, we’ve always gotten our food from the buffet and never ordered from the main menu. But whether you order from the main menu or get the buffet, you’re sure to get authentic, delicious Indian food. 


You don’t have to dine in at Taj Mahal to enjoy what it has to offer. It also has takeout, which is available by calling the restaurant or visiting their website (hyperlinked above.) However, the more popular option is catering. If you call several weeks in advance, Taj Mahal will cater your event, providing many of the same dishes available on their buffet. Either they can come to your venue and set up their buffet-style meal for you, or you can pick the food up at the restaurant yourself. It’s a great option for a party or other event consisting of people who love Indian food. Our family ordered catering from Taj Mahal a few months ago for a family event, and it worked out really well; it saved my grandmother from having to cook, not to mention everyone loved it. You can enjoy all the same things that dining in at Taj Mahal has to offer, by ordering takeout or catering from them.

For a taste of India in Pittsburgh, you absolutely must check out Taj Mahal.
