“ Really amazing food, with a breadth of menu far beyond lower-quality Indian restaurants. We split two entrees and 5 sides. Order at the counter, take a number and wait for your food to come out. Food is delivered as it is cooked, rather than all at once. Super clean but not a great ambience - we would consider takeout next time. ”

“ I did hear they have a new owner now I'm not sure if that is true though Walking into an Indian restaurant filled with fellow Indians is always a good sign--it means the food is likely to be authentic and delicious. Indian cuisine is my favorite, and I love the warm, welcoming atmosphere. The service is prompt, but it never feels like fast food; it strikes a perfect balance. ”

“ Food is very good. Lots of free parking. Can also park on street. Since it's in a basically mixed stores and homes neighborhood. You always have a place to park. Portion are small for the prices. This is a 50.00 meal. Wasn't enough to take any left overs home. ”

“ The food is great and they did a real nice job in setting up the place. Staff is friendly as well. We always end up ordering extra. They serve halal food in addition to vegetarian food which is a huge plus. To my are a little hidden in their spot so may have to look for them. ”

“ Inside was clean and big; felt a bit like a cafeteria. The lady at the counter (you order and then sit for them to bring it to you) was very helpful when she found out this was our first time. Food was good. I missed the char on the naan which adds more flavor. Everything was fine. Could be better, could be worse. It was almost forgetable. The only thing I was blown away on was the fish and mango Lassi. The fish was SUPER flavorful (if a tiny bit salty) and just about cooked to perfection (small pieces were slightly overcooked). The mango lassi was strong in the mango flavor and so creamy. Might have been the best I've had. If everything were as incredible as the fish and lassi had been, it would have been 5 stars and I wouldn't think their prices were on the high side (everything comes a la carte). Will definitely be back for the fish and drink alone if not to try more items. ”

“ Loved this new Simi Gem ~ Chicken Tikka Masala - Spicy & delicious! Garlic Nan Rice Samosa - yummy! Comes with 2 sauces (minty and sweet). Must try at least once! WILL BE BACK :) ”

“ Dinner was so good tonight that there was nothing left to take home! So happy we discovered Taj Chaat House since it is one of the best Indian cuisine we have had and it is close to home. ”

“ Im so excited to have found this place. It has both chaat and main dishes I love. Not common for an Indian restaurant. Lamb sheesh kebabs -- a healthy portion of big juicy and tender well seasoned and perfectly cooked chunks of ground lamb. Goat curry -- tender (not gamey or chewy) goat in a delectable curry gravy with distinct flavors and just the right amount of heat (we ordered medium spice--next time I'm going for spicy!) Spinach fritters chaat-- oh my - this had the balance of cool yogurt, sweet and tart tamarind and the cool green cilantro mint chutney and a very healthy dose of chaat masala - prepared in a harmonious multi-textural manner that pleased the palate beyond description. I couldn't leave even a bit behind. Sarson ka saag- never my favorite dish for its single texture note, this actually surpassed my expectations. Makki di roti -- this was more dense and not as flavorful as it could be - think a thicker corn tortilla. The garlic naan that came with the mutton curry was so perfect. The right amount of chewiness, just a perfect accompaniment both for the kebabs and the curry. The masala lemonade was a delectable combination of sweet and savory. Delicious, big portions and reasonably priced. Can't wait to go back! ”

“ In a town full of chain restaurants, it's nice to have some diversity! This restaurant has been open for approximately 1.5 months! The restaurant location use to be a biker bar! Now it clean refreshed causal Indian restaurant! We enjoyed our food: quite a menu from snacks to appetizers to desserts! Something for everybody! We had samosa, paneer and lamb. To complement our meal, I had mango lassi! The mango lassi was amazing: so rich and yummy! We look forward to coming back and trying more items in the menu! ”

“ As a reviewer, Yelp Elite or otherwise, it is vital to visit, write about and support new, small and up and coming businesses. This approach took me over the hill, to Simi Valley and the Taj Chaat House, to savor their Indian Cuisine. The restaurant is newly opened, about a month old and has wide open spaces to dine, with a diverse and enticing menu. I decided to go with Chaat (savory snacks), to honor the restaurant name and chose the Papri Chaat to dine in. This is a dish that contains homemade chips, garbanzo beans, potatoes, a lentil dumpling, yogurt, spices and chutneys. I must say that the item was well prepared and presented. Chaat is a tricky concoction to get right. To hit the mark, it must have the right balance of textures (here also with a lentil dumpling), yoghurt viscosity and the calibrated amount of spices, sweet (tamarind) and sour (mint) chutneys. Bites are enhanced with perfect chips for crunch and softness with the potatoes and garbanzo beans. All of this has to blend harmoniously to produce a satisfying mouthfeel and taste. Have to say, this dish accomplished all these tasks. It was done just right. Service was excellent. Now need to go back to try other main items from their interesting menu. ”
