Taj Royale Restaurant

We are tucked inside Hotel Alpine on Fatehabad Road. You can find us right before the Big Bazaar. It’s a busy stretch of road in Agra. The restaurant is at P-14 and C-3. We spend most of our time in the kitchen or out on the floor waiting on tables. It gets really loud during dinner time when the families come in. The smell of onions and spices is always in the air. We’ve been at this location for a while now. The tables are a bit worn and the chairs don't all match perfectly, but they work fine. We have a few regulars who come in just for the tea or a quick snack. The traffic on Fatehabad Road can be a nightmare sometimes, so we see a lot of frustrated drivers stopping in to take a break. We don't have a huge menu, just the things we know how to cook well. The staff is mostly local guys who live within walking distance. We clean the floors every night and prep for the next morning. It’s hard work and the kitchen gets incredibly hot. But we like the routine of it. We don't do anything special for show. It’s just a place to eat some food and sit down for a bit before heading back out into the Agra heat. We sometimes run out of ice when it's really busy but we manage to get more from next door.
