Had the Maharaj Dinner special for two and it came out perfectly! Went in during lunch and only had to wait 15-20 minutes for our meal complete with all the sides and dessert. The staff were friendly and attentive. Would recommend as a great place to bring friends and family.

It was my first time here. Stopped in for lunch and was satisfied. The food was very tasty, and the service was excellent. The restaurant itself was extremely clean and organized. Being Indian, I have been eating Indian food my entire life. This definitely was not the best food I’ve ever had, but I was pleasantly surprised. My biggest criticism was that the rice and butter chicken seemed to be missing salt. This is a very minor criticism, because it still tasted really good, and there was a salt shaker at the table so I managed. The portions seemed pretty large and I left satisfied. Will definitely be back! Their lunch specials are definitely worth the money

Good Indian restaurant in downtown Elmhurst. It is catering to both Americans and Indians. Tell them the spice level ahead of time.

Delicious food and 1st class service. A true experience. Such kind, hospitable , and friendly people. You’ll start with some crisped pappadam served with mint and tamarin sauce. Tandoori chicken was spicy and flavorful. Lamb Curry is FANTASTIC and my new favorite dish over aromatic basmati rice. The black lentils are really something incredibly special here as well.

First time visiting this place. Very clean, great service and delicious food. We stopped by for lunch, got samosa appetizer and the lunch chef special. Really good flavors and big portions. This was enough for two of us and we had leftovers to take home. Love the Mango lassi!

Hands down, best service and great food!. Been to many Indian restaurants, but what sets Maharaj Indian Grill different from the rest is their hospitality, attention to their guest, great service and the most important great food.
