The Taj Mahal Abbey Wood in Bexley

This is one of the best Indian meals we've had for a long time. Ordered a takeaway to deliver to the camp site and arrived on time. Good value and delicious food. I've eaten many currys but this is definitely up there as one of the best 👌

I was ordering Chicken Vindaloo with naan bread. It was so delicious, the sauce was so creamy with very nice aroma, naan breads were so fluffy and big, i havent seen or eaten such a good naan before. People working there are so kind, they even tell me some facts about spices they are using, and what are their health benefits. It was good time spending time in this restaurant. I recoomend it, 1st class.

Delicious food and wide range of curry dishes.Highly recommend.

Take away vegetarian for one very good will I go back yes

Good well priced food and nice servers. Only issue is we were waiting ages to pay and leave.

Found this restaurant on trip advisor. We wanted a takeaway near Abbey Road Campsite. Fantastic food, beautifully presented, good value for money and delivered quickly

Only guests due to early time of booking, warm and friendly atmosphere as more people arrived. Good food , clean & tidy, family friendly.

This was a much anticipated return to this unassuming restaurant in Abbey Wood, and we were not disappointed. Excellent service. Delicious food well presented and the result again was clear plates all around. Could not say anything negative about the food or service. They do prefer dinners to pay in cash if possible and will offer a 10% discount if you do, but cards are accepted.

Amazing food , big portions, friendly service

2019 review: Love this place! Prices have never increased, owner is a lovely man. Top quality food and soooo much better than Brick Lane! **Update as of 22nd August** From the outside it’s the same but wait for it, inside it looks smarter then we thought oh no it’s under new management :-( and sadly it is… The tables are way too close together, we sat in the corner and the table next to us was the length of a knife away - so glad no one sat next to us as they might as well of joined in our conversation! We ordered and sadly the food was very bland. The chicken madras and vegetable curry both tasted the same and didn’t have a kick to it. Must of been the same sauce the chef used. It was all perfectly eatable but the quality of food isn’t the same! We then got our bill and wow the prices have increased!!! Previously we normally paid around £28 but this time it’s £41.75!! Massive increase and sadly because of this and quality of food we will not be returning. Upon departure the waiter asked us to leave a Google review so here it is and he said the old owner is retiring - please come back!!! Also there is a new chef, no wonder the quality of the food has gone down and little taste. Service was still very good and waiters were polite - no problem there at all. Only things to address are: food quality, prices and space out the tables! It’s abbey wood after all and as the old owner always said, it’s abbey wood after all, what’s the point hiking the prices up here when people in the area don’t have the money. We were the only ones in the restaurant with a very little takeaway being done. On previous sundays it was non stop, again example where the new management are failing. **UPDATE** Staff very polite but after waiting for my takeaway for which a 20 minute wait turned into 50 minutes then when I got home to finally eat it the food was stone cold!! 😢 prices have gone up since the new owner and just not the same quality of food at all I’m afraid. I won’t be returning. 2023 UPDATE We tried again and sadly it’s got even worse. Please bring back the old owners. Sadly the table opposite were given the wrong food and a vegetarian got given meet and she was ill. It’s more like a cafe now not a restaurant. No table cloths, no music and not very clean. Take aways seem to take forever as a guy was waiting an hour for his. The price we paid was sadly not worth it and they even forgotten a dish and still charged me for it.

Lovely! Very kind/friendly staff, ordered delivery and it arrived quickly :) food was super yummy

Very good food and service. Popped here mid when just exploring what was at the end of the Elizabeth Line. I will be coming here again for sure!

Generous portions and good flavours but the service was very erratic.. pity because it spoilt what would have been a good time.

Food was lovely. Service a bit slow . But overall very nice .

Lovely meal. Staying at liocal campsite so handy to call on way back from a busy day sightseeing. Friendly staff and delicious food would recommend a visit

Visited this place as we were passing by looking for somewhere to dine. The waiters were very friendly and the food itself was cooked well, very tasty. It was a nice and peaceful environment. I do recommend

One of the best indian food i had in ages. Very good service.

We've eaten here several times, as always on Monday the food was delicious and beautifully presented.

What a lovely restaurant. We booked a family dinner at 6pm on a Sunday. We were the only people in so we were treated so well but the waiters were not at all intrusive. We were eating with our two young sons and all of us thoroughly enjoyed our food. We ordered onion bhajis to start as one of our boys fancied them, we were told we would get three but they gave us four so we could have one each. They were fresh, crispy and tasty. The popadoms were also fresh, tasty and hot. Our mains were delicious, hot and plentiful. We ordered chicken tikka, paneer shashlik, chicken methi and lamb chilli massala. The meat was tender, beautifully cooked and succulent. The chilli massala was our favourite. I cannot fault this restaurant at all and we look forward to returning to dine in again.

Best Indian restaurant ever I seen.delicious food friendly staff and reasonable price.defenetly I will go there again.

Dropped in on the off chance and had a lovely meal. The staff were very friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu. The food was delicious. Was staying at the local campsite. Would definitely recommend using this restaurant.

Staying at the local caravan site, we came down for a takeaway. It was absolutely superb. Great service and fantastic food. Can highly recommend! Thank you

Got take away 4 wife's birthday today. Excellent service,superb food, friendly professional atmosphere,Will definitely be back

Popped in to the Taj Mahal after an evening in London. Very pleasant staff , friendly and accommodating. Food was excellent ,quick and piping hot. Prices are very reasonable . Would definitely recommend trying and next time we are in the area we will most certainly be calling on again.

My Favourite Indian Restaurant by far!

Good food, warm service and a clean establishment. Underrated ice cream menu available for takeaway too!

This restaurant is very good. We did eat very well en the staff is very friendly. I can recommend everybody this restaurant.

The food here is always amazing. My favourite curry house in the area and great service!

The food was great. The staff was very friendly and our food was delivered fast. I would definitely recommend The Taj Mahal Abbey Wood to anyone.

We had one of the best Indian meals that we've had in ages. Service was great, food excellent and reasonably priced. Definitely would recommend a visit.

Great food ideal for a takeaway when staying at the Abbey Wood caravan and motor home site

Hadn’t been there for years and was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere and friendly efficient staff. The food was delicious. One of us is vegetarian and there was a good selection. Will definitely be going back soon

Visiting the area and first time there. Service was excellent with the waiters helping decide around taste and the menu is clever as it also tells you the levels of heat. All the food was delicious. Made for a lovely evening

Found this place when we lived in Abbey Wood for a short time and really glad the Elizabeth line has made it easier to come back! Just had a delicious vegetarian meal! Lovely server, relaxed atmosphere, very full and very happy!

All the food was wonderful, served hot with hot plates. The service was excellent.

Staying at the caravan site and thought we'd give it a try, glad we did. Lovely food, good service and reasonably priced. Excellent night.

Placed an order on Uber eats, the restaurant does not provide tracking through the Uber app so after a 2 hour wait decided to call the restaurant to find out where our order was. Tried calling the restaurant numerous times with no answer, eventually got through to the restaurant and was hung up on!!! Called AGAIN and told the restaurant that we wanted to cancel our order but was instead told that we’d need to wait an additional 30 minutes (which would have made it a 3 hour wait!) the staff member on the phone told us that the order was never confirmed, while in the same sentence confirming the time we ordered?! Had to contact Uber to receive a refund, with Uber having the same issue of being unable to get through to the restaurant. AVOID!!!

We have been here quite a few times now through the years and absolutely love it! My young daughter can't eat dairy and won't eat spicy food and I can't eat dairy or onions (so pretty challenging when eating curry). They are always so kind and make us special dishes from scratch accommodating our dietary needs. Tonight they made her a mild chicken bhuna and for me they prepared a delicious king prawn and lentil curry, I don't think they shared a name for it, I never had it before but it was so flavoursome and spicy, just delicious. The staff are also very welcoming and sweet with my daughter and the restaurant is clean and not too busy when we go, usually around 6:30 pm. We will undoubtedly go back again. Thank you!

Excellent service from Lotus, our waiter. Tasty food and at a reasonable price.

Absolutely delicious meal, great service and good value. So pleased we found this little gem on the Abbey Wood High Street on our first visit here

Really enjoyed the food. The service was great. Would definitely go there again

Had a lovely meal here, the staff are really nice and the atmosphere is classic British curry house.

Really good meal and service very close to the station.

Excellent food and friendly staff. A free big car park underneath the Abbey Wood station

We stayed at the caravan site up the road and booked a table here. Wow just stunning food served by lovely people. I can't remember having a more enjoyable Indian meal. Food is so nice and reasonably priced. Many thanks and will definitely return on our next visit.

Great Nan, alright Rogan Josh, super watery Tarka Daal, and disappointingly, £5.95 for literally three cubes paneer.

Fantastic food and very friendly staff.

First time I was in there. I only had Paneer Jalfrezi as I wanted something light. It was amazing, exceeded my expectations. Price was moderate.

Faultless, amazing service great knowledge and recoomandations, food was excellent would love to live closer to get more often!

Lovely restaurant. Very friendly staff. They go above and beyond to accommodate. Food was delicious. Have nothing bad to say about the place. Bit of a wait for the food but the food is so freshly cooked I’d rather wait and have fresh food. So worth it Fully enjoyed my meal this evening. Thanks guys will see you again soon.

Delicious food and good service - we will be back!

Delicious Danshak! The best we have had. Nice staff. Really recommend this restaurant for eat in or takeaway! Woolwich people - our centre has no Indian restaurant, and this is only 4 mins on the Elizabeth line from woolwich and right next to the station. Lovely area. Worth the trip!

We enjoy coming here weekly , never had a mad meal always really pleased with our food . Incredible service from all the team they will bend over backwards for you , even cook items that are not on the menu ! 5 star all round service we highly recommend this restaurant.

This is an excellent restaurant, we are in London for a few weeks and on our arrival we ordered some takeaway food which we thought was really good and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We returned a couple of weeks later to dine in and the food was even better, Sam was very friendly and attentive and his dad such a nice man. I had a mixed korai which was so fresh and delicious, one of the finest Indian meals I have ever had, my wife had a paneer dish and she said the same, the Peshawari nan was to die for. What more can I say? We will definitely go back.

I dined here while I waited for my train back to Newcastle. I was not disappointed. Fast service and quality cuisine. Highly recommend.

Just bad. Curry was watery no flavour. Well everything was just water down. Overall low quality and disappointing don’t come here for Indian food.

Fantastic food! Seriously tasty and just what I was expecting. Definitely ordering from here again. Big thank you

An ok curry, had better but location was ideal

A truly magnificent meal with excellent service. Indian cuisine of the highest quality.

Went with a group of friends None of us had been before and we all enjoyed a fantastic curry with great service. Best naan had for a while.

I thought this Indian was lovely, the service was great and attentive. The food was fresh and lovely. I will return.

I got chicken tikka, chicken vindaloo and chicken korma along with the pulao rice and honestly everything was so sugary I had to I guess fix it in order to make it eatable. The chicken tikka and chicken korma were extremely sugary and the chicken vindaloo just tasted burnt. The chicken vindaloo’s tarka should have been cooked for less time tbh. The rice wasn’t great at all sadly. I’ll be honest I wouldn’t really recommend this place. Needs a lot of work and really expensive for food that isn’t great. Kind of wouldn’t really give it one star either.

Amazing food and hospitality, what a gem of a restaurant! Could not recommend more!

Best Indian food in London! Never disappoints

Excellent food, friendly atmosphere and staff. The best curry house by far. Highly recommended 5*

Genuinely superb! Best curry I've had in a few years. We will be fighting over the left overs and won't be ordering anywhere else from now on!

Hard to find something this good in London. When I look at a restaurant, I tend to look at five things: food, service, price, presentation, and atmosphere, generally in that order. They did well on all five. The quality of the food and service were impeccable. The dish my girlfriend got was beautifully presented. You really can't beat the price. We had 2 mains, 2 rice, some poppadom, and a bottle of wine and it came to £46. The place was clean, well maintained, with some quiet inoffensive music in the background. They were also super accommodating to my food allergy. I'm coeliac and they checked multiple times with the kitchen to make sure the food was safe for me. I'm writing this well after eating and no issues. It's a great place. You should go. I'll be going and bringing friends.

Great food. I just wish the annoying white lady didn't laugh so loud as it hurt my ears. But I understand they can't tell customers to shut up.

Excellent restaurant, with both food and service at very good standard. A little gem in Abbey Wood, keep it up!

Great Indian restaurant, we think it is our new favourite place. The food is amazing and service is outstanding.

Amazing food, absolutely delicious. Price is very good too. If you try once you won't go anywhere else. Deserve recognition 👏

AMAZING FOOD, IMPECCABLE SERVICE, GREAT AMBIANCE , CLEAN RESTAURANT , CREATIVE DESSERTS AND YOU GET FREE SHOTS AFTER THE MEAL!!!! WILL CERTAINLY EAT HERE AGAIN. MY FAMILY AND I LOVED IT!! 10 OUT OF 10 HANDS DOWN!!!!!

Wouldn't recommend this curry restaurant absolutely disgraceful service will never use again

Return visit after 2 years and still as impressed. Food and service all fantastic and at a great price. Will definitely be back

Today i had a great experience at this restaurant because of sam(Ahmed) the best, proffesional, kind, thank you so much! 👏🏻 we ll come back definitely

Having not been to The Taj Mahal for quite a while, we’ve been a couple of times recently for birthdays. Very glad we did. Excellent, friendly service & very tasty meals which we’ve thoroughly enjoyed. The manager mentioned the restaurant’s under new management since earlier in the year, so that explains the improvement in service from the occasional times we’d gone in the previous years. We will definitely be going again. Highly recommended.

Ordered 3 thali and quoted 45 min wait After 1 hour and 45 mins they delivered 3 vegetable thali. Tried to speak to manager but didn’t come to phone. Will not be using again as delivery is very very poor. Definitely would not recommend

Wow. Freshly cooked, well-prepared, delicious food. Quick turnaround for collection early on a Friday eve. Good service. Can't wait to order again or eat in when lockdown is over.

Amazing food and very good service.thanks tajmahal.

Always used this restaurant for at least 20 years tried others but always returned here, cannot beat it for food quality & service . And since covid has done its best to survive and although takeaway only at the moment its worth the wait on delivery they are doing thier best

Fab, fast service and lovely food. Had a few takeaways from here now and won't order from anywhere else!

So greasy, like cooking oil had been poured over the food.

Had bad stomach ache the day after

Excellent dining experience, delicious food and great customer service!

Was the best around, dunno when it changed owners or chef but wont order again. Food was not greasy or horrible just not as great as before. 1 starts a bit harsh so 3 from me

Took my girlfriend and family here. We’ve all come to the conclusion that this is the best place to get your curry. All the food was fresh, none was microwaved. I couldn’t find 1 fault, staff were friendly and showed good customer service. We’ll be coming here more often. 100% recommend!!!

Very good staff and top class food 👏 👌.

Placed my order at 10:55 and food was ready for collection at 11:15, food was amazing. Thanks to the staff for staying open to cook my food

Lovely staff very pleasant comfortable evening x

Terrible service food wasn't up to much either

Very disappointed with my meal. Been ordering from here for years. Seems to have gone down hill.

Went March 5th 2020. The food was mostly fantastic, really flavoursome and tasty. Only gripes are it was very cold inside the restaurant and the Peshwari Naan was quite crusty, like it had been toasted for too long. It resembled a Papadum more than a Naan, but maybe that's just my preference. Overall though it was great and I would definitely go again!

Delicious and very good quality food also very friendly stuff. Was there first time but definitely will be back! :)

Often have takeaways from our local indian but as Valentines night decided to eat in the restaurant. Have eaten here and had takeaways since it first opened back in the late 80's early 90's. Very friendly attentive staff even though they were extremely busy. We...

Food was well tasty! Since my "local" indian closed,ive looked around for a new one, this us a good contender🙂

Rude. Bad customer service, went in for takeaway, found what I was looking for on menu but just stood at the counter while the person behind the counter was just taking telephone orders at least 4, asked him when will it be my turn, he said just wait, obviously I l left. Review would not acknowledge 0 star which I whated to give.

First take away from this restaurant, i had chicken madras pilau rice and a stuffed paratha. The rice seemed to have been overcooked and was washed through, the curry itself wasnt to bad large lumps of chicken but a bit overdone. The paratha was cold...

Great Indian restaurant. Good choice. Fantastic prices. Really tasty.

Went for a meal early Sunday evening with my wife who is Indian, vegetarian, and knows her curries. We were alone in the restaurant. In view of an earlier review we had seen on TA we asked specifically if they used real paneer ( a...

Went here as we were in the area on a whim, really glad we did! One of the best Indian meals I've had in a long time!
