Impressive! Curry base was rich and full of umami flavour. Tandoori chicken, well cooked and nicely zingy. Bhaji's nicely spiced and excellently cooked, and the pilau rice was wonderfully fragrant. This is a step up from your normal takeaway curry.

Satisfied a Friday curry craving with an excellent tikka masala and keema rice. Absolutely spot on! Set aside the classic and slightly battered takeaway looks as you walk in - the food is really, really good and the service is perfect. Fully recommended!

It was so good. Staff was very kind and welcoming and unlike nowadays the staff actually created a conversation with me. I ordered collection. The food was really good. I ordered a special rice and masala chicken. The peshwari naan is really good. Best Indian takeaway ever. Totally recommend.

Great portions, delivery on time, very nice driver, curries served hot when arrived, each curry was really rich with layers and tasty in its flavour - spot on! The lamb tikka and chicken tikka are still tender when we finished everything. We have requested extremely spicy for everything and they surely didn't disappoint us, the spices came with strong inviting smells and hot tastes, they are spicy enough but not just pouring in chilli powder, we definitely love them and will return next time!

Let me tell you about this takeaway as your probably thinking of ordering for the first time if you're reading the reviews. This takeaway is the best Indian takeaway in this area of Leicester. The chefs are highly skilled, cook with fresh ingredients and add another ingredient that many establishments lack. That ingredient is love. They put so much love into the food, you can taste it. It's why I keep eating from here everyday. I bring the food home, open the containers and smile as soon as I see what I have received, a hot delicious dish that hugs you with flavour. A sure way to keep warm this winter. The manager Abdullah is such a nice, friendly and genuine guy who is willing to help any customer should they need it. I am lucky to have him as a friend, such a good man. Thank you Maharaja takeaway for everything you do! And to any potential customer, order from here and you will not be disappointed. In fact you will become a regular just like me. 6/5 stars

Maharaja Takeaway is quite average. The service is okay, not great, but not bad either. The food is spicy, with the garlic chilli vegetable curry being the best dish. The tandoori roti, however, is a bit dry and just okay. Overall, it's a decent place for a takeaway meal but nothing extraordinary. Three stars.

Excellent service. We discovered this Indian restaurant thanks to the very good reviews left before us and we do not regret our visit to the Maharadja of India. It was our first Indian restaurant in London. We were very well received by Arif, who was very friendly and with whom we were able to share a few words during the meal. The decoration and the atmosphere with very trendy Hindu music allowed us to have a pleasant time. Thank you for your welcome! See you later!

I've had better quality curry from Farm foods! it was very very poor and I will never order from here again! All pre cooked and banged together, the chicken was probably from farm foods and added to a sugar sauce. The only thing half edible was the rice. Very very poor and poor reflection on just eat that you partner with such a poor establishment.

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!

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.

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

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!

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.

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.
