Taj Mahal Indian Restaurant and Takeaway, Amble in Northumberland

We ordered a take away from here. My goodness it was delicious. We specifically chose things we had never had before and were amazed at how different it was to a usual anglicised “curry”. The flavours and quality were out standing.

First time dining here - we will definitely go again! The staff, particularly Ali, were very friendly and the service overall was excellent. Portion sizes were very generous and everything ordered was delicious. Would highly recommend a visit here.

Fantastic service, friendly staff.. great food Overall excellent 👌

Abysmal went in the bin chips raw sheek kebab chicken not lamb chicken Pathia greasy with ineadable chicken chips raw waste of money I honestly don't know how they can call this curry

I’m glad we chose the Taj Mahal… been in Warkworth for a few days on holiday and had a craving for an Indian take away after a long day on Alnmouth beach. All I can say is… wow the food and service was exceptional. My partner went for a vegetable Rogan Josh and I went for the Lamb Tikka Byriani with madras hot vegetable curry…. I freely admit this was the best Indian meals we’ve ever had…. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a curry fix….superb quality…

We regularly get a takeaway from this restaurant. Service is always friendly and on time. Food is amazing! Our favourite place for a takeaway!

The food was scrumlicious, the service was really fast and the atmosphere was calm with music playing in the backround I feel really at home.

Best Indian in Amble great bar man. Great service.

I was in amble for 3 days and had my dinner daily food was awesome and good quality.one of best restaurant in amble

Fantastic Indian food in a quiet corner of England. Impressive menu, kind staff, and a lot of flavour. Best curry I've had in Northumberland!

Dinner for 6. All meals were sensational. I’ve been eating curry all my adult like. The Jalfrezi was the most delicious I’ve ever had. Than you so much.

curry is so tasty. Also rice and peswari,garlic nan. Dine in service is good.i recommend everyone.

Only been once for a takeaway. Food was really nice. Busy at peak times.

Great takeaway generous portions good service

Just ok. Got my curry fix while on holiday but the food lacks flavour and spice. Great if you're trying Indian/Bangladeshi food for the first time. If you eat Asian food on a regular basis you may be disappointed, as we were.

Lovely food, probably best Indian Meal I’ve had.

We both enjoyed everything about this restaurant. Friendly staff, prompt ordering and not too long a wait for food delivery to our table. The food served here is piping hot, tasty and absolutely great and we can recommend this authentic dining out experience to everyone. We will be back !

Poor service it was like they didn't know what they were doing. Booked few days before hand we walked in and had to wait as they double booked. Staff seemed like they were clueless. Nice food but we were starving when we left. Definitely wont be going back, anyway we tried it. Management replied with a stupid comment. Obviously doesn't know how to react to a true negative comment. Sort your staff out and your booking arrangements

Absolutely fantastic thank you very much taj mahal staff

Great Indian restaurant! Portions, quality, service, and price are all excellent. Sadly, it's not our "local", otherwise, we would be visiting regularly.

Nice meal I had dupiaza and the wife had saag goshi with mushroom rice, both very nice, poppadoms and pickles to start , all pretty standard nice food, service was a bit rushed no time between courses

The food was absolutely delicious, service was fantastic. Best Indians we’ve ever had. Naan bread was incredibly light and fluffy. The waiter even gave us a Cobra glass to go with our collection! Would highly recommend.

Had such a lovely night with friends. The staff couldn't have done more. We tried a selection of the new dishes just introduced for 2024 and were seriously impressed. This is our new favourite restaurant for sure.

Went on a random January wednesday evening so not busy, the food was spectacular and service was also very good. We'll also try the takeaway at some point.

We decided to eat out on Christmas Day as a family and thoroughly enjoyed our meal! Friendly staff, well organised and the food was perfect! No where near as expensive as some other local establishments were charging per head for sub standard/frozen food! Thank you for a lovely meal!

Thoroughly enjoyed the meal. The staff were very friendly and helpful

Ready for the new year party thank you guys

Very nice a little pricy but worth it

Food was so delicious I would recommend people to go to this place

Very good curry at a very good price.

Lovely place really clean and staff are friendly. Food was fabulous we had no complaints.

Lush food good value for money food hot and staff friendly and helpful will definitely recommend it and go again

Great food,run out of draft beer ???

Great food, really friendly staff. Always enjoyable both for sit in and take away.

Very friendly was advised it would be an hour for a walk in table however after deciding to wait a table was available,food was lovely,service was fab and quick considering how busy it was

Visited whilst on holiday well presented inside. Food excellent and large menu choice. Would visit again when in area.

We had a takeaway on a Sunday evening which was very good and tasty, will try eating in the restaurant next time.

Went here for a takeaway while on holiday, chose it based on recent reviews, we weren't disappointed. Best curry we've had in ages, you might pay a little more for it but it's really worth it, you won't be disappointed 💥

Ordered takeaway whilst staying a nearby Airbnb. Really excellent curry and side's. Piping hot and full of flavour.

Good food with a variety of curries, some new to us. Started with poppadoms and pickle tray, had a lovely Chicken curry the name I can't remember but it was on the chef's special selection and a portion of pilau rice. The naan breads were all freshly cooked and were delicious too. Reasonable prices and a good do .

Excellent takeaway, we had 4 main meals and all were very good, the vindaloo was particularly good. Excellent value portion sizes are very generous.

Quite dear for a takeaway. Food was average.. a little oily tbh..

Food good, very popular with takeaways & table service. Book in advance is the message.

What a great meal we had the food was brill service excellent 10 out of 10.

Fantastic Saag Chicken. Seems to me that the spinach was fresh

Great meal, lovely décor, nice & clean

Father's day meal, good Chicken danzak

I have to say it was the worst meal i have ever had first of all our meal was £26.50 i ordered onions bhaji well over cooked then i ordered large korma sauce that was white in colour on just tasted of coconut no spices it was absolutely horrendous never seen anything like it i also asked for a large onion salad that was just tini cut up onions in a metal carton if i could leave a picture of it i would, DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY GOING HERE!!!!

Food in this place is fantastic, compliments to the chef, service needs reviewing then this place will have it right. Get a takeaway and you will be fine, but don't expect a good sit down experience. Food is great but more thought needed from management about what is expected of the staff. They can't do everything!!

Sent an email 24th April with no response.

Food was great . only complaint was having to ask 3 times for glasses of water for my kids.

Just had a takeaway, food was superb and was ready on-time can't fault at all.

First time for me went to pick up a takeaway whilst on holiday everybody got there food but not us waited and waited it eventually came , thr food was disappointing won't be going back .

Lovely warm welcome tonight. The food was excellent and service great too. Highly recommend.

The service was amazing, the food was exceedingly delicious, and the prices were very good for what you received. We will definitely come back.

Im from Middlesbrough @Teesside University. I came to Amble on a work.. at night 9pm i hacd seen Taj Mahal Indian Restaurant. . . Chicken biryani 9.5£ really superb... I recommend this place for Delicious food. Friendly Staff...

I have eaten indian cuisine all over the UK and genuinely this may be one of the top 5 indian restaurants in the UK at the minute. We ate here whilst on holiday in Amble and the food was outstanding.

Very smart and clean premises. Good menu choices and food was cooked to order and really tasty. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Outstanding take away. Chicken in the curry was so tender and sauce was amazing. Full of flavour. Excellent.

Ordered big takeaway, ready in 30 mins, very friendly staff and food was delicious. Very fresh and tasty.

Would agree with all the positive reviews - one of the best curry houses we've tried

Brilliant food, both our choices were excellent, spiced with out the heat that sometimes accompanies spicy food. Would definitely recommend

Staying in Amble on holiday and decided to get a take out. Had to go in to order as the phone was busy but the staff were so lovely and friendly, they couldnt apologise enough for being busy and short-staffed. Went back to colect the food and it was definitely worth the wait, food was hot and waiting for us as we walked in, absolutely delicious and will definitely be back again. Highly recommended.

Came here as a party of four. Service was quite poor. Restaurant was incredibly stuffy with zero air movement. We decided to takeaway the food due to heat within the restaurant. One dish lacked ordered chillies. The other dishes just simply lacked any authentic flavour and we all agreed that it tasted similar to supermarket microwavable curries. Disappointing

Best we have had, anywhere, freindly, quick, and enough to eat

Great food, reasonable prices. Nice decor and clean. Service was fairly quick, and staff friendly .

Fantastic food but service very slow

This is our fourth time of visiting and we have never had a bad meal. All the food is exceptional, tasty and large portions. The staff are absolutely lovely and can't do enough for you. An absolute pleasure to visit whenever we're in the area

Had a fabulous meal here - flavours were delicious. We enjoyed it so much we took the left overs home with us and ordered some take away items the next night to go with them. Excellent!

Wonderful service & food. Definitely worth a visit highly recommended

Gorgeous food and super friendly staff. Mushroom pilau rice was to die for!! Would definitely go again.

I've ate curries all over the UK and this establishment is one of the best. We had a week's stay in Amble, (a lovely town).What a delicious curry, probably the best I've had in a long while. Highly recommended.!!

Went for the tues meal deal top notch at excellent price

The reason I put only one star: I have been to Amble several times over the past 5 years. About 3 years ago I ordered a takeaway by phone. As I was only a couple of hundred yards away I came to collect and was given somebody else's. Luckily this was noted quite quickly and we swapped. But no lesson was learnt because when I was there on new years eve there was a lot of confusion with take away. For instance you asked a woman what she ordered, she did not know as she was collecting for her daughter. You must have had her daughter's name and phone number. Put it on the tak away simple. Anyway as I did not hold a grudge I came in the day before New Year's Eve. I booked a table for two the following evening at six on New Year's Eve. I arrived with my wife at 5:55 pm. By 7:50 pm we had not been served with our starter! It was a fixed menu for that night so nothing unusual could be chosen. Whilst we waited several tables had been served their starter and some had nearly completed their main course. At that time we left with no fuss to you. This is why I gave you one star which I have never given to anyone. In fact I don't give negative reviews at all. I wrote this as you chose to reply to my giving you one star with ⭐️. What does that mean? Am I getting a gold star?

A delight. Tasty and good service.

Tasty chicken jalfrezi take away defo recommend.

Lovely meal tonight spot on as usual 👍

Good food and staff. One star off because the food is never ready when they say it will be.

I ordered a takeaway from here whilst staying nearby. I asked if they preferred card or cash & they answered that cash would be better as they were having issues with their card machine. It was the weekend of storm Arwen & when I arrived to collect they were amazingly busy, probably down to other restaurants nearby being closed, but my food was ready for collection within just five minutes of the time I had been given. I paid cash but everyone after me paid by card (card machine didn't have a problem after all then...). The food was very nice, but my mixed veg balti (advertised as medium hot & spicy) was a bit mild compared to how I hoped it would be. Overall very nice - I'd definitely order from them again.

Visited tonight and was so disappointed. Poor Lamb Tikka Masala, absolutely flavourless. Service ok but there was a waiter constantly pacing which was unnerving. Have visited many times and all ok but not tonight. Also refused to advise on or ring a taxi. most places link to local businesses. Live and learn

What a fab take away! Highly recommend Chef's special Jal Frezi and Jhall Jull chicken both hot and tasty ❤️ great quality and service... Well done team Taj Mahal!

Very nice deep red chicken tikka masala and the garlic naan had a great stretchy texture to it

Excellent food and service. First visit but will be a regular on our visits to Amble from now on.

Outstanding couldnt find a single fault with anything,service food all fantastic

Service was very slow. They seemed to prioritise take aways over sit ins.

Very clean, nice ambiance, and really good food. The staff were so helpful and attentive.

Wonderful food, highly recommend the Shatkora Lamb. I live about 19 mile away from Amble and it's worth the trip, food as good as anything I've eaten in my usual haunt, Newcastle. The fella looking after our table was a bit miserable, borderline rude to be honest, but hey, it was near closing when we ate and he might have just had the shift from hell, it certainly didnt spoil our night and we will definitely return.

Lovely place food and service excellent. We didn't book but arrived early 6 pm so no problem in getting a table. We will return next time in Amble.

Called in on a Saturday night without a booking. Said they could let us have a table, but would need it in about 1hr 45 mins. Fair enough👌 The food when it arrived, was the best I've ever tasted. Everything, from the lime pickle to the curry to the fluffiest garlic bread. Just superb. Friendly, helpful and funny staff. I live near Bradford and would drive all the way back, just to eat here again. Thank you so much for not turning us away

Great food. Great service. Highly recommended.

Disappointed. We have had numerous takeaways from the Taj Mahal, But the last three have been so disappointing. The portions have been reduced dramatically. Cartons only just over half full . Plus running with oil . Spent £33 on a take away for two . What a waste of money . Feel we have been ripped off with the size of the Meals not enough for a meal for one . We will not be back . Not sure if It’s some one new running as the little guy was always helpful . He hasn’t been there the last Visits. We have supported you all through lockdown. We are local and would expect not have portions Halved in Holliday season

Excellent food ... Friendly and attentive staff

Excellent South Asian food, as good as anywhere I have experienced in UK.

Gorgeous food and lovely polite staff

This is most definitely a hidden gem. Food was fantastic!! Would absolutely visit again & would highly recommend. I don't like spicy food so had the Kurma, which was gorgeous.

This is one of our favourite restaurants in the North East. The staff are friendly and the place is always clean and lively, but more importantly the food is absolutely delicious. The waiters are very good with children and will cater for picky eaters. Our chicken tikka starter was especially juicy and tasty, and the curries are fabulous. We have used the takeaway service and it can get busy at the weekend so I would recommend ordering ahead if you don't want to wait.

Not quite a 5 star review but the food was nice and fresh. Also it was reasonably priced.

Food was top notch and staff very friendly

Superb. One of the very best Indian meals we have had. Absolutely 5 stars. Thank you. Tandoori chicken Saag. Superb ❤️

Really poor meal. We had a takeaway from here. The papadams were stale. Ordered mango chutney that was missing. We ordered a "special dish" of chicken and mango that was dreadful. It was like a sweet condensed milk and tomato ketchup was used for the sauce. The saag paneer had tiny bits of dry, brown and odd tasting paneer in it. The Sagaloo had only a tiny amount of potato in it. The only truly tasty dish was the tarka dhal. Oh and it had all been obviously microwaved. Clearly none of it was freshly cooked. Such a shame especially as it was not a cheap takeaway.
