I was in the area and decided to take home some desi style pizza to enjoy on the rainy day. The…read moremenu was outdated I came across on Yelp and Google but I look recent photos of the menu for my fellow Yelpers. The service was wonderful and the gentleman attending the phone was kind and knowledgable of the menu. I was looking forward to a flavorful spicy pizza but it was underwhelming. The flavors were not authentic and left me questioning why it's marketed as such. It was a delicious pizza just not desi style in my opinion. I wanted a burst of flavors you expect from south asian cuisine but It just tasted like a regular segular chicken pizza with jalapeños I could have brought from another pizzeria.

Back to Maharaja for Christmas Eve this year. Our whole family was together this year and it was…read morefantastic! We ordered both the sampler appetizers (and an extra plate of lamb samosas). And we always try to get a lot of different dishes around the table so everyone can try something different. The food was as usual, delicious! We were in the back room due to our large group and were concerned that service would be impacted, but they were attentive and energetic. The owner came back to check on us as well. The large round tables were comfortable for our group of 8, and we enjoyed our evening. We'll be back next Christmas Eve ( and likely sometime in between)! One thing I noticed that was new (to us) was the open to pay the bill via Toast QR code. I'm starting to really appreciate that as I think it takes a load off the server and allows us to close out quickly. Thanks to everyone for taking great care of our family for the evening!!

We went to Maharaja on a Saturday night. Everyone was very kind and friendly. The space itself is…read morecutely decorated. We enjoyed the complimentary chips and dips and we both enjoyed our entrees. The chicken was very tender and the flavors were delicious. The food did take very long to come out and it also took a while to pay as it looked like one woman was doing most of the table service. We were also a little surprised to see each drink was $12. We just got a single rail vodka soda which came in a small glass. That price seemed a bit steep for that.

I had the privilege of joining Saffron for a night taste testing their new spring menu and let me…read moretell you - it was insanelyyy delicious! Saffron remains one of my top 3 favorite restaurants in MKE I love so many things about it. The ambiance is spot on, moody, yet energetic. Their cocktails are always ahhhmazing. Each dish that comes out is somehow better than the last, there's not one thing on the menu that disappoints. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly, offering great recommendations when we are choosing between items. It's a great spot to go with a larger group so you can try lots of dishes! It's not impossible to get a reservation which I appreciate, but it's always booked/lively. The food presentation only enhances the experience, but the flavors and textures are really what make this menu shine. I cannot wait to go back in July with a group of friends (who have never been!) and try the whole menu! Bravo, Saffron, keep up the great work

Our service from Nina was exceptional, and the food was delicious! We shared an order of Samosas and Samosa Chaat, as well as Tandoori Chicken, Butter Chicken, Aloo Paratha (flaky flatbread stuffed with potato), and Garlic Naan. Then we exchanged bites of our individual entrees, including Vegetable Korma, Vegetable Biryani, and Bollywood Special Biryani, which has lamb, beef, chicken, and shrimp (with tails on). You can order mild, medium, or spicy for most dishes. Although they say the mild still has a subtle kick to it. You can order extra mild if you are super sensitive to even mildly spicy foods. Bollywood Grill offers a lunch buffet 7 days a week, with a slight upcharge on weekends for extra offerings. It's a great option for Indian food, so stop in if you haven't tried them yet, or if it's been a while, like it was for me.

I've been to other Somalian spots where they cook the lamb so long that it's tender, but stringy and dry. Not this place - it still had it's succulence. The seasonings were on point. Both the chicken and beef sambusas were tasty - but in my opinion lacked the punch compared to other sambusas I've had. The chicken one was especially bland, but the sauce saved it. The chicken one was dry and had a shredded texture. I suggest making small dices to the chicken and mixing it the slightest amount of gravy to keep the chicken moist before folding it in the pastry. The service was really friendly. Everyone needs to go here now! I'll definitely be back

Back in the day, there was fresh roasted coffee on Saturday evenings, but the food is still fantastic. We sat at a table this time, I prefer the 'pedestal' personally. If you're feeling a little adventurous just do it. It can be intimidating to not have utensils- you just tear off a piece of the Injera (like sourdough crepe) and pick up what you want to eat. Not everything is spicy- but some is, so if you're not up for spice, be careful. There are lots of vegan options and it's ok to call the waitstaff over (he doesn't like to interrupt).

Upon entry, we were amazed by the ambiance and vibes of the place. There were traditional Ethipoian art works and decors hung on the walls which were absolutely beautiful. It was our first time trying Ethiopian so we were confused, however the staff were extremely helpful and gave us great recommendations. For a group of 5, we got the vegetarian combo and it came on a large platter on top of injera bread. Every single Wat was spiced to perfection and it surprisingly reminded me of Indian food. The injera was soft and delicious and was a perfect pairing with each Wat. The food was satisfying and the flavors were warm and homey. This restaurant will definitely be getting multiple visits from us in the future!

The food was ready when it was supposed to be, the place was dead when I got there but maybe they do more to go type of orders but they have some tables for dine in. I don't' think they have table service so you would order at the counter and sit. Online, it wasn't clear if rice came with the curry, which it always does but because they listed rice as an add on I thought I better get some because what if there was not rice?! Welp...ended up with a lot of rice lol. So from what I could tell the rice is included so we had a lot extra. That would normally be great BUT the rice has no seasoning. That is an important element to the meal and I was disappointed to have 3 containers of plain white rice on my hands. The naan was huge and flavorful. I made several meals out of the food we received and it was good, just not stand out excellent with the rice lacking flavor. I'd probably try other things there in the future.
