Best. Food. Ever. I always feel at home when I’m here. From the friendly staff to the delicious homecooked food. I would highly recommend the Salmon Fish tikka, the Yellow Dal, and the Lamb chops!!
July 2025
Went to Maharaja to celebrate a birthday and it did not disappoint! Our group ordered a variety of dishes, but the lamb chops and kebab really stood out. Both were incredibly tender and flavorful. We had a large party, but our serve was so attentive, making sure everyone got what they needed. I couldn’t recommend this restaurant more!!
