Best Indian restaurants in Iran

Everything was very good, beautiful environment or creative decoration design, delicious food with good design and really big portion that really every food can be eaten by at least 2 people and maybe 3! Very polite waiters.

The only comments I can make is one about the parking lot that maybe they can consider comfortable conditions for it because the parking lot is not easy to find and the second issue is that they can separate the smoking area from the main area.

One of the very few Indian restaurants in Tehran.
Food taste is very good. In many dishes the taste is not really authentic Indian. But be modified and more compatible with Persian taste. But still very good👍
Ambience is very good and staff are welcoming👌
Roghan josh, Dal soup, roll kebab and bread with minced lab is recommended.

I am fan of indian cuisine, I love Tajmahal esp the Naans.

This is my friends and family friends favorite Indian restaurant in Tehran. The restaurant is in Taj Mahal hotel.

The ambiance is nice and service was okay, our waiter was a little rude and acted as he did not have time to explain the menu. He seemed very annoyed by my questions.

The food however is amazing, the spices and herbs are all there perfectly seasoned and prepared well.

I ordered the lamb nann for appetizer, which is bread stuffed with minced lamb and spices, this was my favorite dish, I could not find such dish anywhere in Canada, maybe I’m not looking hard enough. The nann was soft and slightly crispy enough to hold the stuffing inside.

The two of us ordered roll lamb kabob and chicken Jalferazi with rice.

The roll kabob had a hint of Persian personality to it, it was juicy and tender but not entirely Indian like seekh kabob.

The chicken jalferazi was spicy and well made, it was absolutely delicious.

The food here is five stars but the service is about 3.4 stars. I believe there should be a balance for the best guest experience.

I heard that on some Friday nights they have live music and they bring live parrot around in the dining room which I could not confirm if they still do that.

Over all if you are visiting Tehran as local or non local and if you like to try Indian food I would recommend Taj Mahal.

Something to note that they don’t tell you that there’s a fee to take home the remainder of the food. I saw a fee of 38.00 USD and when asked what the fee was for, the server said oh that’s for take out containers.

Had a fantastic Indian meal here in January 2024! The flavors were authentic and delicious. The Shahi Ghormeh stood out for its taste, the Mutton Biryani was simply amazing, and the Gheyme Nan didn’t disappoint either. Portion sizes are generous, and the service is commendable.

A heads-up though - it’s become quite pricey, with each dish costing around 750 tomans. Also, note that drinks come in jugs, so consider the size before ordering. Despite the prices, the quality and portions make it a worthwhile visit.
Good for big group of people too
Golab Jamun was not authentic here though...

The original spot in Tehran for Indian cuisine. The taste and quality has slightly degraded over the years but still quite good. The staff is very professional in hospitality so this makes a great choice for hosting a formal or family gathering. The staff are well trained in accommodating requests and serving the food an The chicken patila and the tandoori chicken are some of the best. But the stand out is always the tomato bisque soup. Over all its a great choice. I only wish the food was as good as it was a few years ago.

Sometimes, the food quality is excellent and incredibly delicious, while other times, it's just average. In the past, the servers used to mix up orders; I hope it's not like that now. The dishes aren't spicy at all; they have a unique and mild blend of spices, making them worth trying.

Authentic, classic and tasty Indian cuisine.
This hotel and restaurant been in business for a while and always delivered good service. I have been at this restaurant several times since 10 years ago, and always received same quality.
Food tastes delicious. Try transitional house baked breads.
