    Halwa Puri & Aloo Chana

    Slow service and the food was decent overall. Good halwa puri and nihari. The buffet items were ok. The chai was average. Prices were very reasonable. A satisfactory but forgettable meal.

    My boyfriend was in the mood for Pakistani food and this was the only dine-in place open. We walked in and it was very dimly light and un-inviting. I tried my best not to judge it off the lighting. We sat down and were immediately greeted and asked what to drink. The cups were clean but the jug the water was filled in did not seem that clean. We ordered 2 Chicken Tikkas, one Bihari kabob, and 2 garlic naans. That was more than enough food for the both of us and we even ended up taking some home. The food was flavored well and delivered promptly. I would give the actual food 5/5. But sadly the food isn't all the experience is of eating out. The restaurant was not clean. The tables were sticky, there were cobwebs on the light fixtures above the table floating down, and even the utensils and plates seemed to not be washed properly. If I ever did come here again, it would be to order take out. The food was very well made but the service and the cleanliness was close to a 2/5.

    We decided to give this dive another chance so we pre medicated our selves with some antacids and came prepared lol. The place has cleaned up some since our last visit here and was much better. We started with the Dhai Barrahs and they were very tasty. We ordered the Chicken Lahori churgah and it was very tasty but spicy. The Beef Bihari Kebab was very good! My favs are the fresh naans which were spot on. Overall if you don't expect too much you will be satisfied. We will be back when in the area!

    I like desserts from all over and so I was very excited to try this place. This restaurant is located in the middle of a shopping center. The dessert counter is one of the first things you see. They all look colorful diferent shaped and good. I asked the person working the counter to tell me the difference between them. He told that they where all the same. They are all milk based desserts. I then asked the difference in color and size. He responded they all taste the same. Not very inviting but I was feeling adventurous today and I bought a few of them to try. To my surprise he was kinda right they did taste similar. There where some differences in textures. One was like a fried dough with a sugar like syrup. One was like a not so sweet sugar cookie. Another one was like a dulce de leche but not sweet at all. Another was a bake pastry with a really good crust, my favorite. The last one was a dark brown one that had nuts and tasted like not so sweet burnt sugar like dessert. I do wish he had taken the time to explain them a little bit better like I asked. My choices might have been more pleasant and so would my first time experience to the place. I was not made feel welcome and so I will not come back

    This is definitely a hole in the wall place but very authentic. Every time I'm in here I always see Pakistani/Indian people dining here. They always have a showcase of desserts to choose from at the counter. They also make a very delicious tea with milk. Today was the first time I tried their food. They had a great deal Monday through Friday; $10 all you can eat lunch buffet. The buffet was smaller than what I'm used to but I still left there feeling full and content. Food: Chicken biryani: a mixture of rice and chicken, very flavorful and had lots of bone-in meat in it. Saag: this was chunkier than what I'm used to and didn't have the cottage cheese, it was good but not the best I've had. (Vegetarian friendly). Lentil: this was a thick curry with lentils. It was pretty delicious and vegetarian friendly. Curry chicken: very flavorful and in a green curry with lots of bone-in chicken meat. Tandoori chicken: they also bring out a sizzling plate of red tandoori chicken per your request. This was so flavorful and the best I've ever had! They offered a wide array of sauces, desserts, salad, and white rice. They also brought us tea and a jug of water. The employees were friendly and treated us like family. Overall, even though their buffet selection was limited, the food and service was great and I'd definitely return! This is a no frills kind of place; if you're looking for fancy, you will be disappointed. However, it's a good local spot for some decent Indian food.

    I love the varieties of sweets which are pretty fresh. I also think they have amazing samosas.

    I normally love the buffet but this time they took slightly forever to bring the biryani. But besides that the food was extremely tasty.

    I tried Maharaja for the first time tonight by take out. I try to avoid trying places for the first…read moretime through take out because I feel it's an unfair disadvantage. 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.

    As we were parking in the strip mall that houses Maharaja, the passengers in the car next to us…read morewere eating samosas. 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.
