This was our second year dining at the Thanksgiving brunch buffet. The food is delicious- every dish! There are holiday foods and dishes not often served on the regular daily buffets. The buffet is as beautiful to behold as it is to taste. We had a mimosa and chai tea - there were many drinks to choose from such as lasse. The service is always good but exceptional yesterday. We had a very nice holiday meal and will return at Christmas. They are serving Holiday Brunch on the 24th and 25th of Dec, they told me. Price was a bit high but the buffet was absolutely worth the money. We highly recommend the Maharaja Holiday Brunch buffet!
Walked in to pick up a take out order, noticed the place was practically empty, spoke to the server & quickly found out why. She was immediately rude, unpleasant to be around for even a minute & disrespectful for no real reason. Instead of asking me to confirm the order after handing me the bag, she yelled nonsense at me at the top of her lungs until I left. Hopefully they can hire civil & mature employees in the future that act like adults.
UPDATE: Store is now changing the story. I was never asked to present order details, I walked in and showed the details immediately as I walked in, so this is impossible. There is no excuse for yelling when I was acting patient & showing all required details. Lying about the story is to be expected at this point. Disappointing
We went for buffet on a weekday. They were not prepared at all even though we called in advance. Food quality was ok but they were running out of bread/naan even though there were not many people. Dessert tray was empty. Host was rude too.

We used to come here very often then stopped as quality went down. Went back yesterday and it was worse than we remembered in the past. Server was unpleasant and despite a nearly empty room was no where to be found most of our evening there. Hot tea was luke warm at best and served in the tiniest cup, Naan was very charred on one side, and chicken was tough. The flavors of the sauces in our entrees were very tasty though. Overall I feel that if the server was nicer and more attentive we could have had some of our issues resolved (like tea made with hot water and Naan that wasn't so burned. High prices for small portions and inattentive staff.

We enjoyed the weekday lunch buffet with our young children and had a great experience. The food was great and my gluten free friend appreciated being able to eat nearly everything they offered!

Stopped here in a pinch, and was extremely impressed. Service was extremely warm and congenial, and the food was the best Indian I’ve ever had at this price point. Highly recommend the Saag (and get it spicy). Will definitely be back.

I decided to bring my wife here while searching for somewhere to eat, and we both agreed that this was a great decision. The food, service, and atmosphere was top notch. The staff was as friendly of a staff that I've ever experienced. We'll most definitely come back, and I highly recommend.
We've now been to Maharaja twice in the past month, and both visits were wonderful. We first came as a family on Father's Day and were blown away by the kindness and attentiveness of the staff. We have some dietary allergies in the family, and they were so thoughtful about making sure everything was safe, including gluten free and dairy free options. The food was delicious and the whole experience felt warm and welcoming.
Wow! Went to Maharaja with my family for Father’s Day and was completely blown away. There are a couple allergies in my family, and the staff here went so above and beyond with Gluten Free and Dairy Free accommodations. I had the Chicken Tikka Masala with two different types of fresh bread. 10/10, some of my favorite Indian food I’ve had. The service was outstanding as well. It is clear that they take great pride in this place and truly care for the customer experience. I will be back many more times. Thanks!

We have been going to the Maharaja since we lived in Milwaukee and our son was a toddler. Now we live an hour away and he is 17, but it is still our favorite! The food was fantastic as always and our server was super helpful talking about some of the new menu items.
Went to Maharaja for my birthday and it was amazing. Food was delicious, service was quick and checked in multiple times to make sure we were enjoying our meal. We were treated like family.
Excellent food and service. Maharajas is a family favorite. We’ll keep coming back!
Don't be afraid of the unknown. The staff is helpful selecting your meal and the food - all of it -is excellent!
Aside location this place has amazing food, good staff!
