Reviews
"Beautiful meal as always, Had Anarkali lamb and cheese and garlic naan - hubby had eggplant curry and kids had butter Chicken. Keep up the good work team whitby Taj. Will be back soon"
"Customer service was appalling. Cook had to tell waiter to serve us. When he took our orders he was so rude. Plates used to be warmed up not anymore just cold. No background music on. So disappointed. We will give it one more try and if continued with bad service we won't be going back"
"We eat here regularly and love it. The meals are consistently well cooked and delicious and we appreciate the very attentive & cheerful service."
"We go to this restaurant at least once a month (sometimes twice a month). We love the curry here! But today, when we visited, the food was completely bland. We couldn't taste any flavor in the food, and even the naan was not as soft as usual! It was so sad... it felt like we lost one of our favorite restaurants! Usually, we can order more rice and they refill it for free, even with the lunch special, since there were three of us. Normally, when they gave us one rice bowl, the lady would always say, "If you need more, please let us know. We can refill it." But today, there was no lady, and the man (who was in charge) charged us! When I asked about it, he said, "I gave you a big portion!" I hope I can leave a review another day soon, with 5 stars!"
"Very very disappointing experience at the Whitby Taj. Firstly after confirming with the manager that we had a 1 year old as part of our group, I had to drive home from the restaurant to get his highchair as the restaurant only had 1 which was already in use. Having arrived at 5.30 we had to get the waiters attention to order food and drinks, main meals were not served until after 7pm. When I went to ask how much longer our food would be, the staff were more interested in talking to the Door Dash driver who was behind me in the line. I was then told the food was cooked and it would be out in 3 minutes, it arrived 20 minutes after I was told it would You'd think a children's Mango Chicken curry wouldn't be spicy however it was too spicy for the kids in our group who ended up just eating naan bread rather than their $18 curry $450 for 11 people including 3 kids waiting over 1.5 hours for food the kids didn't even eat doesn't represent good value in my opinion."
