Maharaja Indian Takaway in Blaby

Avoid! Used once previously and was ok, however what I have just had was terrible, the worst takeaway curry ever. Butter chicken is boiled chicken in a sugar sauce with no taste and absolutely no resemblance to a butter chicken. Lamb Korei consisted of boiled lamb I suspect a few days old with a bland sauce. Will not be ordering again! Avoid!

Had a wonderful meal. Fresh Naan with chicken tikka karahi are my favourite

I Come once a week and the customer service and food is always high quality, dishes are full of flavour and are always pipping hot would highly recommend

I've been ordering from Maharaja for a while now as they are just on my doorstep, the food is fantastic all the time and prices are fair. I will continue to order from here in the future.

The food is absolutely sublime, and the staff go the extra mile in order to make their customers happy. I now only use this restaurant for Asian food

Probably the best takeaway in Leicester. Excellent customer service always helpful. Never had a bad experience with them. Fresh garlic naan with Chicken tikka Jalfrazy. Yummy ,yummy

Food was yummy including nan bread staff are very friendly. Hot and nice food thanks Moharaja

Hadn't ordered from here in a while, and was absolutely disgusted at the quality of the food now! It's such a shame, as this was a great place to order from in the past! Food had authentic flavours and taste, now everything tastes like Pataks paste! Nan's are bought in pre-made! Awful!!

If you want to order a curry from this restaurant from you will be better off to s*** On your plate , you will find some use for the naan doing that .

Ordered at 21:50 on Sunday through deliveroo, it got to an hour and 15 minutes waiting before I tried to call as they use their own drivers, and no answer. The food literally never turned up. It's taken over 48 hours and having to call the restaurant myself because they wouldn't confirm the refund to deliveroo to get my money back, which is crazy. His excuse was "we went home and left the machine on and it auto accepts orders".

Worst Indian take-away ever. Being of Indian origin you tend to know what is good and what is not. The food here is appalling. Please do not waste your hard earned money at this place, you will be very disappointed. Nan bread was soggy, with a hair in it. Tandoori roti was like it came from underneath the owner's a mattress. It was uncooked. Please see photo. No point complaining they said they don't care about reviews... very rude staff. Sheer waste of money.

We are not happy about food.. just spending money only..

SCAMERS. Ordered online through their website, paid by card. Waited 2 hours, no delivery. Called them up, the owner lied. Said he was going to call me.... was waiting 2 hours... and that they dont deliver to my area (10 minutes away) . When i asked for refund he changed his mind and said they'd send it now in 45 mins. 1 hour 30 later no delivery, I call them again. More lies, told me he would refund me straight away. Wait 2 hours, bo refund, i call again. He said they were busy and would do it at end of day. They close at 10.30pm it's now 11.30pm still no refund. The thing that gets me the most is the constant lying. No respect for customers so you can only imagine what goes on behind the scenes. Total scammer and liar. Reported to Trading Standards

Chicken tikka masala was a korma with red dye chicken shashlick bhuna average & dry very vinegary, garlic nan small and no garlic. Pilau rice ok chips ok , disappointing really won't use again

You get what you pay for! Honestly, this is one of the best Indian takeaways in the area! We have regular takeaway from venimos with family and this is always our go to. Only ever had delivery but super friendly, easy to talk to if anything needed changing. Food is absolutely perfect every time, no faults at all 😍

Oh dear, this place has gone down hill, a year ago this was the best takeaway around, today its the worst. I will never go there again. Really bad food, the chicken had a funny taste. Couldn't finish it, ended up in the bin. Don't waste your money. I have used this place regularly over a few years. First as the Indian Gate then maharaja. The first owners of maharaja knew how to cook and used good ingredients. Now I feel the ingredients are the cheapest and on top of that the chef isn't great. I don't think I've ever had a worst curry!

Had a chicken korma and jalfrezi, it was delicious 😋 thank you🙏

Had a chicken korma and jalfrezi, it was delicious, thank you🙏

Nice food for a reasonable price

Went to pick up the Indian takeaway, but we were unable to redeem their loyal scheme where you buy five meals and get the sixth one free. When we enquired why they said 'the price of the ingredients went up and they were unable to honour the loyalty scheme anymore'...but the loyalty scheme was still active and being advertised. This was reported swiftly to trading standards and was a complete waste. Nan bread was appalling, the kee manan had no meat in and looked just old and sad. Very low quality and very disappointing.

Best Indian take away in Leicester. Good bargain 20%off on online order. Food is very tasty and reasonable price. Thank you Maharaja

Omg ...this has got to be the best curry I have ever had !!!! The chicken tikka marsala was amazing and the chicken Shaslik bhuna is now a firm favourite 😍 Absolutely first class ...thanks you guys !

Excellent authentic takeaway with very good quality food and good portion.

Having moved to Le3 from Syston we were finding it hard to find a quality and reasonable priced Indian takeaway, at last we have found it!! Excellent,tasty,hot and delivery driver friendly and polite..well done 👏

I will NEVER order from these again. Ordered the King Prawn Korma and got 4 Prawns in the dish. Rang and complained and the man on the phone confirmed with King Prawn dishes only 4 are added to the dish. Not good value. AVOID

They called us up when were expecting our delivery to say there was no paneer, my wife was not happy so the chap drove to another restaurant to get her some! The curries we had were spot on and so happy with the service with all the effort he went to for us. Definitely recommend!!!

Lovely place, Fresh and Tasty food with a reasonable price, Highly recommended 👌

Great Food, Great Staff, Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for Indian Takeaway, Food is Delicious and well priced, The Loyalty card is also a great deal too. Keep up the great work, I'll definitely be returning soon.

Nice meal but found hair in rice!!

Up to their usual high standard!

Would recommend the food is absolutely amazing , friendly staff , great price . Loyal customers mcmanus family

Fabulous food we will be ordering again from here

Given good Google ratings we decided to give the maharajah a try. The online ordering was good though not iOS compatible, friendly and rapid service even on a Friday, 20% off collection. Food was hot, tasty, good serving size. Only criticism was the mains were overly salty for our taste.

By far the best Indian takeaway I ever had in leicester. Food is fresh and was piping hot when it arrived to me. Butter chicken is the probably the best I have had in a long time.

Rich and flavourful servings of classic and traditional Indian dishes. Easy to order online and when I collected my order I was in and out in less than thirty seconds.

Delicious, best indian takeaway in Leicester.

Best Indian takeaway I have had in a long time , my new favourite place

Was staying at Prem Inn along the road done my order online and collected i love Indian food and this was exceptional! I had the Royal Naga this is a hot dish but the perfect hot dish full on flavour explosion on the pallet then heat at the throat brilliant! The onion Baji’s where perfect and the dipping sauces incredible! I got to the shop to early went in told the guy id wait in my van he came out and gave it to me a little bit earlier! Very friendly staff and full service with a smile! Highly recommend, will be using every time i visit!

Have tried a couple of indian takeaway recently as the one we normally use is closed have to say that this is by far the best Indian takeaway in leicester the food is brilliant staff are lovely and always on time and piping hot. We wont be using anyone else now great work guys. Recommended to us by Kelly on peveril road.

Great food.plenty of flavour. Arrived on time and piping hot. Would definitely recommend and will return for more.....

Brilliant food would recommend to anyone Have ordered several times and is consistently a high standard of service and food 10/10

This was our first time ordering from here, we only live round the corner and thought we would give it a try, we were not disappointed at all, the service and food was brilliant, will 110% be ordering from our local again! Thanks guys, keep up the good work during these challenging times!

Lovely take away and the first this year ordered online and collected 20% discount highly recommend

We have had several takeaways from the Maharaja and all have been excellent! This is run by the same people as the Cardomom Lounge in Narborough which is also a very good curry house. If you order online and collect there is a 20% discount given which makes the food great value for money and if you keep the same menu they mark off each visit and after 4 meals you get a free meal/discount to the lowest value of previous meals. Always been on time with my on-line orders and very friendly staff. Still relatively new and well worth a visit if you haven't been yet! Highly reccomended.

The best Indian takeaway ive tasted around leicester , staff are buzzing and food ordering so quick and easy online ..gave me a call to say food was ready to go ! Real taste and flavours not the usual bland food on offer out there . Looking forward to picking more off a vast menu . Im fussy this was very very good lads 😉

Friendly staff and great quick service. Tastiest Indian takeaway I've had in years. I didn't like the previous establishment, but this is very different food. The onion bhajis especially were exceptional! Really looking forward to our next takeaway! Highly recommended.

One of the best Indian takeaways in leicester, having tried many this one is definitely going to be on top of my list. Ordered a Garlic Chilli chicken and mixed sizzler, the food was well cooked, nice balance of chilli and garlic. The chicken was very good quality and fresh.

First time eating from here, we normally go to other favourite takeaways but wanted to try this as they had sent a menu through the post, It takes alot for me to write a bad review but I can honestly say this was the worse Indian takeaway I've had in Leicester, all the curry's were sloppy, with poor or no taste to distinguish between the dishes, only the colours, no vegetables visible as described. Friendly service though and reasonable prices.

First time ordered via Just Eat. Timely delivery to our home and I have to say the best Indian the family and myself have had in a long time. Tasty, well cooked, hot on arrival and generous portions too plus a very polite delivery agent. This beats the other local Indian takeaways on the Just Eat app. Please keep up the good work. We will be back!

Thank you always .Very good.Highly praised by us all .Food tastes great and a pleasure to eat .Every meal delivered has tasted so good .Highest of praises always .

We’ve now had 2 takeaways from Maharaja, both times we were very impressed. The standard of the food is excellent. The staff are friendly and attentive. And lastly great value for money and they offer a loyalty scheme too to get your 5th takeaway free!

me and the mrs had a very nice meal. we found them though facebook and thought we would give them a try as i used to know them an indian gate. the food was very nice and no sure if its the same people or been taken over but i would recommend them we are having are second meal now and hopeing its amazing

Food is 10/10 amazing to eat.PERFECT .Fast delivery too.Recommend to eat from.I loved every meal ordered from this amazing restaurant.

We ordered a take away on line for collection. It was easy to order and a confirmation email arrived within seconds, with a second email to say it was ready for collection in a very timely manner. We collected the service was friendly and efficient and the food was excellent, really tasty. My hubby had a lamb dish and I had the vegetarian dish. Would like to see a few more Paneer dishes but we will definitely be ordering again soon and looking forward to getting our 4th takeaway free.

omg am i glad this takeaway has opened near me . Best best food had in a long time . so freshly cooked and perfect flavours. keep it going and I will definitely be a regular customer. highly recommended:)

My first order from here on Saturday...arrived on time, was soooooo tasty will definitely order again..

Perfect delicious food, compliments to the chef, perfect service, very reasonably priced considering the high quality of every dish!! Staff are lovely, top quality customer service, we highly recommend this take away if you want top quality of everything in a take away restaurant !!! This is the place to go !!! We've order several of their dishes and each one has been awesome. Thank you so much for your experience, skill and service. 5 stars from us !!

First time ordering from this Indian, but would highly recommend. Beautiful fresh food, lovely flavours & well packaged.

I have waited 15 years for a half decent Indian Takaway near where I live. We used to have Indian Gate on Watergate Lane and it was the worst Indian I have ever had. Now the same shop is the Maharaja Takeaway and it’s superb. I always start at a new Takeaway or Restaurant with Chicken Jalfrezi, mushroom rice and mushroom bajhi and so this is what I had here. The menu/flyer was very well layed out, the prices were very good, the choice was wide ranging and promised much, but, what about the food? Well, it was superb, just the right heat(madras, as requested) great portion size, nice people but superb food. I have waited my whole time in Leicester and now we are moving out, this comes along, typical. The new sign should be up by now, order on line and enjoy, I can’t wait for my next visit, thanks guys.

Well, first of all and very important. This is no longer the Indian Gate, it’s the Maharaja and the sign goes up on Saturday. This is really important, the Indian Gate was the worst Indian take away I have ever used, and I gave it 3 attempts, with detailed criticism then have not been since, very disappointed. A couple of days ago we got another take away menu through the door and it mentioned Cardomon Lounge, Narborough. I love Indian food and read the menu with glee, all looked good, different and very affordable. I said to my wife ‘if only our takeaway, just round the corner’ was anything like this. Anyway, picked my food and prepared to set off for Narborough. My wife then picked up the flyer to make her choice. Then she let out a loud ‘oh’. What, I asked, she told me the amazing news that Maharaja was opening on Watergate lane. Wow. Tonight was the big night, made my choices, ( standard for such a big test) Chicken Jalfrezi, madras hot, mushroom Bhaji, mushroom pilau rice. I had my own home made chapatti’s so none of them required. And the verdict, awesome, amazing and about time too. The ordering app needed a tweak, which they did immediately and the food was as close to perfect as possible. Thanks guys, I will be back.
