I've tried several Indian restaurants in the area, but none felt truly authentic--until The Royal Touch. It may look like a small storefront from the outside, but inside it's spacious and inviting. The service was fantastic; the young man at the front was friendly and made the experience even better.I ordered the Lamb Saag (spice level 2--I'm a bit of a wimp) and paired it with garlic naan. The lamb was tender, the sauce full of flavor, and the naan was perfectly soft and garlicky. It was a delicious meal all around.This place has great food and service, and I'm definitely coming back. If you haven't tried it yet, you're missing out--they deserve more business!

Food is delicious. Don't order on yelp, it was $1 extra for every single item I got. $6 extra tip, order at restaurant or call in.

With the abundance of Indian restaurants in and around Anderson Township, it's tough to pick the best one without trying them all. Recently, I tried this one, and though I don't consider it the best, I'd say it's definitely worth trying. Overall, I thought it was pretty good, and the service was great too.My co-workers and I stopped by on a Thursday for lunch. It was surprisingly NOT busy. In fact, we were the only customers there. I guess they get busier during weekends of during dinner hours. The place itself was a bit small but had comfortable seating. Our server was very friendly and inviting. Their menu has pretty much what you'd expect at an Indian restaurant. We started out with an order the special vegetable samosas, which came out pretty quickly, and were very tasty with the accompanying three sauces. Then we decided to order the chicken masala, lamb saag, some garlic naan and spicy naan. They're spicy scale is 1-6, so we got everything at a 2 because one of my co-workers doesn't like spicy. It wasn't long at all before it was all ready. Everything was pretty tasty but the spicy naan really wasn't at all. Still had good flavor though.Overall, I think this spot is pretty good, and worth giving a shot. Good food at good prices, great service, and a cozy atmosphere. No adult libations, but that's okay.

So let me explain why I'm giving this establishment two stars. We literally just came back here from dinner and are frustrated with the restaurant and ourselves.I'll start with the good first. The food was good, not amazing - but good, no complaints. The service was good, our server was very friendly, attentive, and helpful. The food came out timely and the serving size was good.Here is why I'm giving this establishment two stars. They 100% overcharged us and I'm mad that we didn't catch it until after the fact we paid and left.. cause ya know, you want to trust people..There were four if us and we all ordered the same thing. Four orders of chicken tikka masala and two order of special naan bread.On the menu the chicken tikka masala says it's $15.99. Each naan was $3.99... so 4 x 15.99 + 7.98 (the two naans) equals $71.94. So you add some tax without tip (yet) would be around probably $80. You wanna know what they charged us on a non itemized bill? Literally $107. And we also tipped.. WTF. I'm irritated with us because we should have doubled checked.. but also what a crooked way to run a business. They've lost our business 100%Update: Interesting how the owner left a comment and apologized but yet to refund us the difference.Update 4/7/2023: The owner NEVER reached back out to me to reconcile the overcharge. "We take pricing accuracy very seriously and will investigate this matter further" - WHAT A JOKE.

Wow...I pop down to Cincinnati every once in a while to OhhhhMmmmmGgggg!!! You wouldn't guess it by looking at the outside, but that was probably THE best Indian food I've ever had. The smell when you walk in was delightful and I just knew it was going to be goooood. We split the Saag Paneer, Chicken Tikka Masala, and garlic naan. I could have licked the plate. Real silverware, cloth napkins and plenty of water refills in wine glasses! The owner made it a point to visit each table and make us feel like family. I'm not going to lie, I tried to talk him into opening a second location where we live, he was flattered, but no such luck. I did tell him we'd be back...might be next month!

My first experience with Indian cuisine! WOW...the flavors. What have I been missing out on?The food was excellent. The restaurant was clean. I don't know the name of who waited on me, but I believe he was one of the owners. Very friendly. I got a lesson on cricket, some answers to how the sport is played.I ordered chicken curry and garlic naan. I was going to go with spice level 3, but I was persuaded to try spice level 2 for my first time. It was a good suggestion. The level 2 had my tongue and lips tingling but not in an uncomfortable way. I will try spice level 3 next time. I'm thinking I can handle that and that at the heat level, I will still be able to taste the food.Overall, an excellent experience. I will definitely go back.And to make this review complete, I had Indian cuisine the next day from a different, highly rated Indian restaurant, Adeep. I ordered the exact same thing, chicken curry and garlic naan, spice level 2. While it was good also, Royal Taj was just a level or two better in tastes, and the portion size was larger.Royal Taj has a spice level of 1-6. Adeep is 1-5. The 2 at Adeep is not spicy at all. And Royal Taj had way more garlic on the naan.Royal Taj has plenty of parking, in both the front and rear. Royal Taj also has indoor dining.It is easy to understand how Royal Taj has been a successful restaurant in the Anderson area for over 18 years. If you live outside of Anderson, this is worth the drive if you enjoy Indian cuisine or are looking to try Indian cuisine for the first time.

My chicken tikka saag was bursting with spicy flavor, while the chunks of tandoori chicken were tender and juicy. Sadly not busy at 7pm Friday night. It should be. Truly excellent Indian food.

I always try and stop at different Indian restaurants as I pass by them. This place is a real hidden gem. As with a lot of restaurants, the higher the level of spice you get your food, the less flavorful it actually is. But my chicken curry was anything but that. The combination of flavor and spices were simply amazing. I definitely recommend this place. And I will be coming back whenever I'm on this side of town.
