Indian Restaurants in Utrecht, Netherlands

Utrecht is something of a hidden treasure in the Netherlands. Smaller than both Amsterdam and Rotterdam, Utrecht has a historic city center that is filled with 12th- through 15th-century churches, canal houses and narrow bridges. Utrecht and the surrounding areas are also home to several very good golf courses including the beautiful Utrechtse Golfclub de Pan. And after a day spent golfing on the brisk Dutch green, what could be better than cozying up to a warm Indian meal?

Taj Mahal India's Restaurant

Taj Mahal is a quaint, canalside restaurant that specializes in authentic Indian cuisine. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the staff friendly and the menu extensive. In addition to a good selection of both tandoori and curry entrees, Taj Mahal also has an excellent selection of vegetarian dishes and pan-served, North Indian specialties.
