T & J Mahal

Southsea locals have long held a soft spot for T & J Mahal, a trusted Indian takeaway that keeps things authentic and satisfying. With a solid Food Hygiene Rating, this spot quietly earns its reputation through consistent, flavour-packed cooking rather than flashy fanfare. It’s the kind of place you turn to when you want a proper curry without the fuss — reliable, welcoming, and proudly rooted in the neighbourhood.

Their menu leans into classic spice-forward dishes: think rich, slow-cooked rogan josh, creamy butter chicken, and punchy vindaloos that actually deliver heat. T & J Mahal’s strength lies in balancing deep, aromatic sauces with tender meat and fresh vegetables — nothing feels rushed or pre-packaged. Perfect for a cosy night in, they serve across Southsea and beyond, making it easy to bring proper Indian comfort straight to your door.
