A restaurant can't always shine to the best of its ability with take out. But Maharaja has won me over in one night of take out! And ruined me for all other Indian restaurants I have had in the past. Not a single meal I've ever had in any Indian restaurant before tonight holds a candle to Maharaja, and I sincerely mean that. I can't wait to return and dine in. The inside is so lovely too. Tonight I had yellow lentil soup, the Maharaji Karahi chicken, and butter naan. I recommend all of it.

Since Maharaja seemed to be the only Indian place nearby, we figured they got their snacks there. The eatery offers indoor and outdoor dining. And the decor is eclectic and cool. We were the only ones in the restaurant for a while on a Sunday at lunchtime, but soon we were joined by other diners. And like the passengers in the car, they, too, were South Asian. To me, this was a great sign. Our server was extremely polite. And she asked several times if the food was good and if we needed anything. We also got complimentary Indian crackers before our meals. And were given free warm cheese balls for dessert. We ordered the goat korma and the lamb maharaja, both medium spicy, for our meals. The goat was tender but the korma sauce was creamier than expected and a bit sweet with actual bits of raisins. The lamb maharaja was spicier than a medium level. But oh so good with a great tomato sauce that offered a scintillating tingle to our tongues. It was definitely the standout entree. And everything came to the table piping hot, including the dessert cheese ball. We were disappointed with our order of naan. It was flat and tasteless. We've had better naan from a grocery store package. While the food definitely was very good, we thought the prices were a bit high. Our entrees were close to $30 each. And the portions were decent but not ample. Lunch for 2 with 2 entrees, an order of naan, tax, and tip, was $80.

I will let you in on a secret and that is the main chef here is originally from the Beach Luxury Hotel in Karachi, so you know the flavors are real authentic and always spot on!

Either way, feeling alittle adventurous then try brain masala. Yucky ? No actually it tastes very good, as a kid I was totally grossed out by the whole concept of this Pakistani delicacy. As a adult I have gotten to the point that I want to try different unique foods and see if I like them. Bundo khan is a "minimalist" restaurant, actually it is a shabby looking restaurant with no sense of decor or beauty. The food takes forever to cook (45 mins at least) so go on a day where you have time or place the order on the phone. However, brain masala is one item on the menu that keeps me going back every few weeks when my palate craves some brain food. You can get a order of daal (lentils) they are made in thick gravy sauce and are good. I do not recommend the kabobs or chicken tikkah etc because the portions are so small and dry it's not even funny. If you want to step it up a notch and your palate is on a wild streak, get takka tak ! You must be thinking takka, whatt ? Let me explain takka tak is also another delicacy and it is a mixture of maghaz(brain), gurda(kidneys), champein(ribs) etc. All these organs are chopped and mixed together to make a unique dish with masala (spices). Takka tak word originates from the way the chef chops the pieces and you hear a cool sound in his knife mastery. So, I suggest to order brain masala and takka tak and see which one your palate likes best.

First Indian food in general can be a little pricey but the amount of they give it makes up for it. Now onto the food, I got the chicken tikka masala medium and the lamb vindaloo hot. The meat was so tender I barely had to chew, the tikka masala was so good and flavorful. The lamb vindaloo wasn't hot as I expected but nevertheless was very delicious. I also got a samosa which was crispy and full of flavor. I had this black sauce that I don't know what it was but it was subtly sweet. Last but not least I had to get a mango lassi which was literally a 10/10 so refreshing and tasty. If you're looking for good Indian food definitely come here!

But that was almost two decades ago, and since then, a couple of others (Bombay Grill, Indian Chilies, to name a few) have come and gone. Hopefully, this eatery will be here for a awhile. Because the food and service are extremely good. The place is clean and decorated like a banquet hall ready to host a special occasion. My friend and I had a Saturday buffet lunch here. We were never offered a menu, so I don't know if one could order a separate dish. But we gladly sifted through the offerings, tasting all that appealed to us. There was soup, samosas, tandoori, biryani, lentil dishes, plain basmati rice, two kinds of potatoes, butter chicken, a chicken curry, and others, as well as sweet cheese balls for dessert. They even offered a milky masala tea. And your meal comes with dosas and naan. I loved the slightly spicy tamarind chutney, one of a few sauces, available. I especially liked the soup, samosa, tender tandoori chicken, the biryani, and the dalwa. I gobbled up my dosa and naan dousing them in tamarind chutney. The weekend lunch buffet (Saturday and Sunday only) is $22.95 and with tax and tip it costs close to $30. The restaurant does have a weekday lunch plate that is $13.99 that comes with a choice of an entree (selected from a list) and some sides. I am hoping to try that next.
