I really like this Indian restaurant. The lamb vindaloo is fantastic and I ask them to make it quite hot and spicy. It is very rich and flavorful and it most definitely brings the heat -- not for the faint of heart. I will typically order it with samosas and garlic naan. I have only been there on four occasions and haven't had the opportunity to venture elsewhere on the menu but I have plans to do so. They offered me the buffet on each visit. While I am sure it is quite tasty I prefer to order off of the menu as I tend to favor the hot and spicy stuff that you don't typically see in a buffet setting.
As for the authenticity I cannot say. I have never visited India and the only basis for comparison that I can muster is with other Indian restaurants that I have visited. On that front Maharaja Indian Restaurant compares very favorably.
If I can find a few criticisms it is that their prices are a bit higher than other Indian restaurants that I frequent, and they don't offer a garlic chutney. $16.99 for a lamb vindaloo is fairly expensive. Other dishes seem to be more reasonably priced and the buffet is very economical. But to be completely fair the portion sizes are generous. A side dish, a main dish, and an order of naan is enough to feed two people.
I have been there on four occasions and I have plans to eat lunch there today. So they must be doing something right to keep me coming back. Very much recommended.
Great food, affordable, and accommodating staff. We had a party of 12 and they were able to seat us right away.
Always delicious food and friendly service!
Good food and good prices. We usually get the chicken Tikka masala, vindaloo and butter chicken. I've also had their samosa, soup and tandoori. All good. Carpet needs replacing and walls could use some touch-up, but food is good.
Love the food!! I have traveled from both Norwich and Salem for their food. Everything I have had there has been served hot and fresh. Prices are reasonable with plenty of parking. Service was very good. I brought a friend who has never had Indian food and he said he would definitely eat there again.
