If you shy away from Indian cuisine because of the overwhelming spiciness, you’ll find Taj Cuisine of India a welcoming option. There’s an extensive buffet for diners who want to a try a little of everything. If you prefer to choose a specialty dish, you can also order from the massive menu and choose your spice level. Opt for classic south Indian dishes like poori masala, medu vada, and chicken tikka masala. If you’re in the mood for something different, you can also opt for one of the Indo-Chinese specials like schezwan chicken, chili paneer or garlic shrimp.

3. Gopuram Taste of India
