Taste of India

1664 N. Woodland Park Dr
Layton

801-614-0107

Web: tasteofindialayton.com/

Taste of India offers authentic Indian cuisine with dishes such as shrimp korma, lamb biryani, chicken vindaloo, channa masala, saag paneer, aloo mattar, daal makhani and much more. Especially good is the butter chicken: tandoor roasted chicken cooked in a butter, onion, tomato and cream sauce. Since great care and finesse is put into every Taste of India dish, you won’t find the standard lunch buffet. However, to sample a range of what this wonderful restaurant has to offer, I recommend the Thali lunch special: two entrees served on large silver platters with raita, kheer, rice and naan. Something else you won’t find at Taste of India: gaudy Ganesh elephants or Taj Mahal posters. I’ve eaten in a lot of Indian restaurants – including my training ground in the Jackson Heights neighborhood of Queens in NYC – and I’ve never had Indian food that to my palate is better than Taste of India’s.

I've tried this place only once, but I was very impressed. The butter chicken, vegetable coconut korma and vegetable samosas we had were excellent, on par with the best Indian restaurants in Salt Lake. I found the food to be somewhat similar to what I've had at Bombay House which is no complaint. What impressed me most, however, was their sense of passion for what they're doing. They showed genuine interest in how you liked the food what you thought of how things were. I ended up having a fascinating conversation with the owner about Indian food and the business of running a restaurant. I think I've made some friends there.

Taste of India is my new favorite restaurant. Great food. Great people. Love Chicken Tikka Masala and Saag Paneer. Try their Yogurt drink - Mango Lassi. My whole family love it. My kids like the naan and rice pudding. Thanks, now I do not to drive to Salt Lake City for Indian Food.
