Maharaja Tandoori in Stockton-on-Tees

Delicious food very friendly staff

Absolutely lovely food, first time ordering from her but certainly won't be the last. Delicious!

Where do I start. Got the Korma unsweetened. It’s was Korma looking water. Awful and bland. Then we get to Mushroom Pilau. Half a button mushroom chopped up and added. Chicken Tikka Malayan wasn’t the greatest but tasted much more flavoursome than the Korma. £25 and started looking through the cupboards for something else to eat. Appalling and won’t be back.

Foods nicer than the pic, pay by cash only

The food was gross. Oily, no flavour, mush

There’s a reason this take away has 2.5 stars It’s tragic Staff are horrendous Barely any meat in their dish. Wouldn’t use them again if I had to starve. Rubbish!

1st time we have had food from this takeaway Disappointed only average not very Indian. Cooked with poor quality spices very bland. chicken Jalfrezi watery sauce no flavour Chicken passanda ok but too much sauce Mushroom rice greasy Sag Ali no taste Overall very disappointed Cash only !!!!!

Just Ordered king prawn korma selected sweetened option thinking it would have nice balance. Just arrived tastes like a desert, overpowering sweet flavour like I'm consuming pure sugar. Unappetising, through it in the bin. Waste of money.

Had a fantastic meal delivered to our new 🏡 home - we were not sure of who to use but after reading reviews it was a no business- will definitely make time to visit the restaurant in the near future 😀

Sooooo disappointed. Was looking forward to a nice hot jalfrezi with a chilli keema naan. Curry was bland, nowhere near jalfrezi level of spice or flavour. The meat was not curried. It was as though it had been cooked off in the oven with no spice and then just put into whatever sauce was ordered. So bland that even my cats ate some of the chicken. They hate spice. If you like bland curries with flavourless uncurried meat... this is the place to go. Always loved the curries from here... Never again. I can make better myself!

Favourite Indian of Ingleby and the only one we now go too! Staff is always lovely too!

Hardly any beef and what beef we got looked like it was out of a dog food tin the onion bhaji were like pancakes chips looked and tasted mushy and to top it all off the forgot the poppadoms. Never been more hungry after a takeaway in my life one star is being nice.

After coming off holiday we wanted to.get an indian we starved ourselves all day looking forward to it only for it to come late and be a sorry beef curry if it was beef looked something like a dog would.even refuse to eat out of its bowl. The chips were soggy and sad the onion bhajis were like dry pancakes. This is the first time ive been more hungry after a takeaway 1 star is generous i advise against this takeaway they even forgot our popadoms.

After my sisters recommendation I used this takeaway. Absolutely perfect.that was a year ago the last time I was there.how things have changed. Got my same order tonight. Threw the majority of it away.get your old chef back please.

Had a delishes dansak dish with mixed veg rice I asked for the dish to be temperd down so as not too hot thay delivered what I asked for will definitely be ordering my favourite dish again

One of the best Indian takeaway we had for a long time. Delicious food and fast delivery. Will try again.

It's more than a year since we last used this takeaway as the last meal was so bland. Decided to give it another go, hoping things had improved. What a mistake that was. Ordered chicken tikka off the bone, appreciate it is not the spiciest of meals but had more taste from an ice cube. We paid £22 for two meals. Absolute rip off. Will not be returning

Second time we ordered here was Saturday night and again we were not disappointed. The portions are great, the food is excellent and full of flavour. We were also able to collect within 30 minutes which on a Saturday evening is fantastic. I would strongly recommend, thanks guys!

I Ordered a chicken briyani it was just awful the chicken tasted awful and the veg curry was like a thick tinned soup with curry powder added to it and it was cold then i got it. I would not go there again.

Poor poor poor ..sweetcorn in a extreme mild vindaloo? Over 2hrs for delivery. 9 calls not one answered. wish I'd just turned the food away. Bland food bland service .. very very disappointing.

Delicious food excellent customer service and this was my first time and will not be my last. Ordered on their website as I know things will be quicker than just eat. They also have their own app which makes life easier. Thank you guys.

Discusting food and appaling service every bit binned greasy chips vile pungent smelling chicken. Avoid this place like the plague 40 pounds, out of pocket and the owners just laughed at us

Going downhill rapidly... curry was terrible won't be returning!

Had many meals from here over many years ,husbands meal tonight was awful container less than half full 7 tiny bits of meat, tasted bland ,rice undercooked rang to let them know not interested in the slightest ,won’t be using again you just lost a regular customer

I absolutely love the food was amazing. And the lady at the front desk was so nice n vary chatty, I would most definitely be going there again. ❤❤❤🍲🍲🍲

As April Fools day goes this place is a prize joke!!! I can't report on the food being great or terrible!!! The reason being I ordered a meal for 2 but could not pay for it, why, because they do not take card payment...though I could walk to the local cash point to take the cash out and walk back??? To say I was shocked and dismayed has to be the understatement of the year! Hmm, are we to assume all monies are going through the books???

In the largest private housing estate in Europe I would, at the very least, expect that you could pay by card. Not here. They send you to Tesco or leave you hungry. Poor show. Poor service. Won’t be back.

We were told our delivery would be with us in under 90 minutes. Over 2 hours later our food arrived. It was cold, swimming in grease and both main dishes were bland. The popadoms were so oily we ended up throwing them on the fire and they went up like an inferno. Our first and last time of using this restaurant, would not recommend.

The food is nice but the service is disgusting. Waited for 1 hour and 20 minutes after an online prepaid order only to be told on the phone that they delivered the food to the wrong place (we are Flat 10 and they delivered it to house number 10 in the area, which would be an honest mistake if the postcodes weren't different). The problem is that they were not apologetic, had a very sarcastic tone trying to blame me for their mistake (I had clear instructions written on how to get to the flat) and even had the audacity to ask me to go to the person they gave my food to to ask for it back! Eventually, they said they would cook some fresh food and bring it within 30minutes, only to come an hour later. Such a shame, that's how you lose customers, won't be ordering again.

Warm ups delivered Appallingly poor

Placed an order over the phone for pick. We were told that it would be 25 minutes but it took another 25 minutes of waiting there. He wasn't even apologetic, making excuses for the delay; 'it's a Saturday, that's how things are' was his excuse. Food is just mediocre. Sounds to me that his behaviour was discriminatory......

Tried the prawn rogan josh. Pitiful amount of prawns swimming in a tasteless sauce. Avoid at all costs!

Best naan breads ever, great tasting food , love it!

We have used Maharaja for a number of years now and cannot fault the food or delivery service. Prices are not cheap - but as a treat it is well worth it. Give it a try I am sure you will not be disappointed.

Order via online booking which is really convenient, however waited well over an hour and it was cold on arrival. Will not use again :0(

Good Food, always double check your orders before leaving as had to travel back a few times.

Just to clarify I meant to click on 1 star but it wouldn't let me change it. We ordered from here last Wednesday as recommended by a friend as a celebration meal. We ordered 2 chicken madras 2 rice poppadoms and naan bread. As it was a Wednesday night we expected delivery to be pretty quick. They said within the hour and took an hour and 20. Clearly they had waited for a few orders before sending the driver out as the naan bread was stone cold and soggy. The poppadoms had gone tough because of the steam and the sauce warmish. Luckily they were spicy so warmed them up a bit. Chicken very low quality also. Won't be going back.

We decided to have a family take away night at sons house. A coupe had pizza but majority had Indian and OMGoodness it was gorgeous. Everyone had different dishes and there wasn't any thing left over. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful flavours, presented well, great service every time at a fair price.

I've ordered from here for the past 15 years. Occasionally we've not had a perfect meal but usually it is fantastic so I have remained a loyal customer. However the last three times I've ordered the meal has been terrible. Nothing seems to taste authentic anymore and the sauce has no flavor. I usually order a lamb tikka vindaloo and their tikka lamb used to be beautiful with plenty of depth to the sauce but no longer I'm afraid and I'm not sure what's happened to the rice but the last twice it has went in the bin on a plus nite th staff and delivery driver are really friendly and in all the years my order has only ever been slightly mixed up once and that was just sending chicken instead of chicken tikka. Real shame

Avoid ordering via telephone. Every time we do a telephone order they get it totally wrong and miss things off the order. Tonight we ended up eating in stages as they couldn't get the order correct. Had a cold meal which had to be eaten in stages waiting for the correct orders to be delivered. How do they get it so wrong even when they have read the order back to you??

Not been for a takeaway here for 3/4years because of poor quality and it is my local shop shame Heard it was much improved so gave it a try boy was I not disappointed Ordering on line is great/easy ,delivery was spot on and free inside 60mins Order was Ceylon and Dansack and they were Superb ,the sauce was the best we have had in the area and the beef /chicken was really tender no fat at all AND FULL TRAYS Amazing improvement of quality of food from poor to one of the best in the area only trouble this was Wednesday night do not know what Saturday food will be like WELL COOKED KEEP IT UP AND I WILL KEEP COMING BACK

Awful...rang up for delivery at 5pm Sunday and was told to hold I waited about 2 minutes before he took my order...when the meal deal for one come poppadoms was soft..curry was certainly not a dupiaza what I ordered ...it was like a very watery gravy..the seek kebab had a hair in it and totally put me off.. best but was the salad and yoghurt dip. Never again! On a positive was good value for money regarding portion sizes it would have done 2 people 8f it has tasted nice...

I have ordered from here many times and been satisfied, but lately for some reason the food is not the same quality. is delivered late and nearly cold This time was the last straw, I went to the takeaway to pick up my food, when I got home the dish was only half full, and looked dry and unappetising. Never again. Look at the photo and make your own mind up

Los alimentos entregados tarde y fría. Pollo madras extra chile verde era muy pobre, nada de sabor y ciertamente no madras caliente y no hay mucho en el camino de pollo. Las patatas fritas eran pasada y grasiento. El arroz estaba bien. El primer plato era kebab mixto duro. Conseguir cualquier sabor tenía que ir y añadir mi propio especias y conseguir cualquier carne tuve que añadir el arranque al principal. . . . No estarán pidiendo de nuevo. . . Muy pobre.

Gorgeous food. Been a few times without complaints. Their naan breads are fab and massive. Big portions that are full of flavour. Good.

Been here time and time again, can never fault the place, at the moment, there are major roadworks in the area, and the delivery drivers are coping best they can, but unfortunatly, been to the shop myself, and a normal 5 min journey, took over 30 mins because of the roadworks.

Been using for the last 15 years,but will never step foot in the door again.

Been here before no problem last time was 6 weeks ago

I rang for a takeaway, after I picked it up I noticed 2 lots of rice and no chips, I left what was correct at home and went back! The counter assistant was arguing that A,I never asked for chips and b I asked for the 2 sets of rice! I Explained calmly no I never and he was arguing with me! I just asked for the chips to replace! When they came I had to pay as he wouldn't exchange, I explained I didn't want 2 lots of rice, I had asked for coconut rice only and to pay additional! Again another argument! Even when I was leaving the shop he was still continuing! The meal wasn't even nice! Never will I return!!! Horrendous customer service!!!

After deciding to celebrate 18 years together with a Indian takeaway we decided to use this place. After waiting 2 hours for food and 2 phone calls( 1 off which the guy on the other end hung up on me ) the food arrived cold and tastelessWill AVOID this place in future and use Sultans in Thornaby

Had a take away last week and the popadoms were burnt and extremely thin. Gave the benefit of the doubt and tried again this week. Exactly the same popadoms are the worst ever so avoid this place if you want the Friday feeling of works over just want nice food and chill.

Best takeaway in the area, great delivery times with food freshly made to your liking. Friendly staff can advise on the dishes.

Old title, new place. Take away was great. Did not try to work through the menu as that would have taken weeks! Went for old favourites and these were great. Worth a visit - we will be back for more.

Me and my boyfriend ordered a korma and a Tikka masala, the chicken was good nice but the curry was so watery it basically made my rice like rice pudding! And we only ordered 1 rice and when it came we had 2 which cost us more than what we had expected. Wouldn't order from here again.

If you like reheated microwaved Indian food then this is the place for you. There is nothing wrong with the good, it's edible, it doesn't taste bad but it really is just ok. Nothing to get excited about. Anyone that thinks this is the bees knees really needs to get down the road to the new Indian to taste what top drawer Indian tastes like. Delivery is quick. Food was warm too.

Best Indian takeaway hands down just avoid the sister restaurant in long lands Middlesbrough.We have used the Ingleby Barwick one for years, always been top quality and would not recommend anywhere else!

Whenever I order dishes here they usually taste pretty much the same as each other. Never been impressed with curries from here. Edible and very average but there are better takeaways around.

Ordered a meal from here last weekend for my friends. The guy who took my order was friendly and helpful and the meal was ready before the time stated. Everyone thought the dishes were very tasty and it was decent value too.

Only wanted a light bite so opted for the chicken tikka starter with chapatti. Food was lovely and warm, really tasty. I will have to try a main meal from the menu!

Writing this the morning after the night before and I don't feel too good but that could be coincidental.I ordered Chicken Madras (a favourite of mine) and on removing the lid from the carton was greeted with what looked like tomato soup with pieces of chicken in it. I've never seen it presented this way so was a apprehensive when I started to eat it and I was right to be so. It was spicy but very bland and...runny, like a thick red gravy? The rice was similar to microwave rice that you can buy these days and the naan bread was crispy and slightly overdone to say the least.Needless to say I will never order from the Maharaja Tandoori again.

I'm not a big curry fan so am very piccy indeed, my partner loves it here and persuaded me to try something so I gave it a go. The vegetable pakora is lovely, naan breads are nice and a decent size, not being very adventurous I choose a mushroom side dish cooked in a tomato sauce with herbs, spices and onions, It is delicious. I will definitely order from here again and perhaps be a bit more adventurous next time.

Ordered a take away meal. After 2 hours called back asking where food was. Given a number of excuses and lies. Food arrived 2 and a half hours after ordering. Food was cold. Both Lamb dishes were beef! Staff rude. Service appalling. Food mediochre.Find somewhere else!

Popped in for a take away both meals smelt and tasted the same. Curry??? No chance had better out of a jar in a hurry. Will not be going back feel so cheated that an Indian could be so bad

Great food and fast delivery. Will use again.

Best curry iv ever had..chefs special chicken tikka masala very highly recommended

Excellent food and fill of flavour would ho back again and again and again!!!!!
