The Taj - Orpington

It’s hard to argue against The Taj being the best Indian restaurant in Orpington. Locals come back to this Carlton Parade favourite time and time again because of the delicious curries, generous portion sizes and very affordable prices. The regular clientele make it hard just to stroll in off the street, but book a table in advance and you can look forward to some seriously satisfying Indian food at seriously competitive prices. The classic favourites are done well here, from chicken korma to vege pakoras, but to get a real taste of what The Taj can offer we recommend trying one of the house specialties like tandoori lamb chop bhuna (with minced meat accompanying the juicy chops), a scintillating chingri specialty (theatrically served on a sizzling plate) or the Bangladeshi rupchanda masala featuring fresh fish marinated in a spicy yoghurt sauce. The Taj is found on Carlton Parade right by the gorgeous Priory Gardens, handy for Orpington locals and visitors alike.
