“We had dinner at Indian Maharaja Restaurant, and it was an excellent experience. We ordered Dal Tadka, Chicken Karahi, and Chicken Biryani, and every dish was absolutely delicious. The food was fresh, full of authentic flavors, and cooked to perfection. The Dal Tadka was rich and comforting, the Chicken Karahi was flavorful with tender chicken, and the Chicken Biryani was aromatic and perfectly seasoned. The portions were generous, and the service was friendly and attentive. Highly recommended for anyone looking for authentic Indian food. We will definitely be coming back!”

“The food was good and tasty Employees was really helpful and professionals in suggesting the menu and all BK Bajaj was so good and helped us with the menu and it was overwhelming the way they treated us so well Thank you guys for everything”

“The location of the restaurant is very convenient to dine in downtown Chicago. The complimentary papad with mint and imli chutney is a very tasty appetizer to start with. The methi malai matar, the vegetarian lunch combo served with tandoori roti, rice, daal and paneer curry and jeera rice were excellent in taste. The vegetable biryani comes in a good portion size and is quite delicious. This is one of the best Indian food restaurants in downtown Chicago which has good taste and a great value for money deal.”

“We loved khada paneer and lamb vindoloo. Tandoori platter is very good too”

“I had the spinach palak tofu lunch special which came with dal and naan. Extremely attentive waitstaff- fantastic service and great value. Delicious, flavorful food.”

“Food is good but little bit expensive. Service is also good.”

“The food combo for lunch is a value for money. The atmosphere of the restaurant is great. The food taste is average. I would suggest to go a spice level higher than your preferred level. Staff is a bit rude and hasty in taking away dishes even while you are still eating. Prior reservations are required to eat at the restaurant.”
