We have never had a bad meal from here, always hits the spot no matter what day we decide to have one. The staff couldn't be more helpful when making specific changes or asking for help choosing the right 'hotness' for your palette. Their onion bhaji's the best I have ever tasted!

It was my first time coming to Maharaj and it did not disappoint. The service was really good and the waiters were very respectful. The food came out really quickly and was absolutely delicious. The restaurant was dimly light which created a really nice atmosphere. The food was 10/10 and would definitely go again!!!!!
