    The overall experience was excellent. I really appreciated the wide variety of food available, catering to different taste preferences. Everything looked so tempting—if only one could try it all! Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy your delicious cuisine — it was truly a memorable experience.

    We were very disappointed in the food - cakes were average and the savory bites were nothing special - unfortunately will not return

    This was the second time in two years that we booked the around the world whiskey experience and both times there was issues with sommelier, and the evenings was cancelled by the hotel. To put this in perspective this happened in 2024 and now again in 2025, maybe it's time not to accept bookings for a around the world whiskey tasting as there is always some excuse. We will definatly not try again.

    Loved the High Tea at the Taj. Staff were so friendly and attentive and gracious to the bride to be spoilt us with free non alcoholic champagne and gracious to let us take whatever we could not finish home with us. It was private and such a fun experience! Thank you
