This place has the worst Punjabi food ever. Shahi paneer is really bad. Waste of money.

We are regulars at Maharaja because 1) the food is always really good, 2) the service is friendly and quick, and 3) the atmosphere is like a family restaurant. We usually take out but there are usually a few large tables filled with Indian families and business people enjoying the wonderful food. Everything from appetizers to desserts and all dishes in between are fresh and tasty. I especially like the keema mutter medium (ground lamb and peas) and the Chana masala mild (chickpeas). I've tried the hot but I don't like my head sweating that much! This is a great neighborhood restaurant with always solid food and normal prices. We always have two days of leftovers, too! Also, when I order takeout at the restaurant, the manager always gives me a secret drink (Crown Royal) and random appetizers.

We came in for the Friday lunch buffet. There are so many dishes to choose from and everything tastes amazing. The customer service team is very attentive and answered our questions kindly. I love the atmosphere, very welcoming.
We had lamb biryani, chicken tikka, butter chicken, garlic naan, and a beef dish. All were delicious, but the biryani was my favorite. Two large plates of rice were provided to go along with the meal. We had more enough for 4 people at about $22 per person including tip. So, a little bit of a splurge but family style was the way to go so we could try different dishes, and I was very happy with the food and service

On what I hope to be our final trip up to Plano for my son's broken leg, we decided Indian food sounded great after his appointment. Maharaja came up high in my google-fu, so we decided to check it out. Small, unassuming buffet in a strip mall. We were immediately seated, and set about investigating the buffet. Admittedly, it's not a huge buffet as buffets go, but it's got all the standards-- samosa, pakora, complementary Naan bread served fresh at your table, a modest salad bar, and the usual fare: Chicken Tikka Masala, saag paneer, chicken vindaloo, tandoori chicken, etc. It was all very tasty. Less usual, the buffet also had some chicken kebab, vegetable biryani, and some of the most tender, tastiest goat curry I've ever had (disclaimer: this basic white guy has had far more than his fair share of goat, being married to a Mexican girl). Several vegetarian options, a fried fish dish, and a decent selection of desserts.Look, I'm really not a hard guy to please. I mean, I pretty much only give five star reviews. But we've been looking for a good Indian buffet for a while now. The options so far have been either overpriced or the food was just meh. But this place was outstanding, and I really mean it! Great food, friendly service, and a surprisingly great price for the lunch buffet! I need to get my son into full contact horse wrestling or something so he breaks another bone so we have an excuse to come back!
