Amazing atmosphere and real, authentic Indian cuisine. If you are a real fan of proper spicy food (and you can really handle the heat), mention "Indian hot" with your order.
The staff were very polite and the owner came around a few times to ensure that we had everything we needed.
Thank you for a slice of tasty spice wonderland in Wellington! Will be back for more when we visit NZ again.
Great food, good service and location.
Highly recommend!
Try the kathi rolls, they are awesome.
Wow wow wow WOW! I'm a big fan of Indian food and this place was one of my favorites. The food was absolutely delicious, the little window to the kitchen to watch the naan being cooked was really cool, and the owner/manager came over himself to make sure everything was to our liking, to which with stuffed mouths we just kept nodding our heads yes 🤣 I'm sad that I'm just passing through, but if I come back some day I'll be returning here. Thank you for the amazing food and friendliness.
Had a butter chicken medium and garlic Naan, sooo good. Possibly the best butter chicken I have had. I'm a Kiwi so I've had a lot of Butter Chicken. It was well presented in a take away bag, staff were friendly and efficient. You can see the kitchen when you order so you can see that the kitchen is clean and professional. Not the cheapest curry around but you get what you pay for. This place is on my list to revisit when I'm in wellington.
Maharaja’s has a different menu to other Indian restaurants. It features regional specialities and the food is consistently excellent, with good quality meat and fragrant flavours. The service is usually efficient and friendly but can get confused when busy or when there are large groups in the restaurant.
10/10.. usually biggest curry critic right here , I've been holding onto Masala Lounge (Porirua) as the best curries for a while now and I think it has finally met its match .
The service was great, food was absolutely delicious 😋 had to get a 2nd curry with another Garlic and cheese Nan as it was that good 🤤🤤🤤
Special mention to Nasan (probably spelt wrong) his friendly smile and can-do service is 2nd to none, give the man a payrise .
Will definitely be back 😃
I visited this place a few days back and I absolutely loved the food here.
Highly recommended if you are looking for good Indian food
Atmosphere and service was excellent, however the food was average. Decent sized portions but didn't take me to flavour town like other places such as Gr8tandoori.
Tried a few entrees and mains.
The heat on the Hot malai kofta wasn't enough to bring a sweat to my partners forehead.
I think your average Joe would enjoy this place however :)
Food is delicious with good sized portions, the staff are very friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere is very pleasant for an overall dining experience.
ALWAYS wonderful food, service + so friendly 💖💖💖
