Reviews for Maharaja Fine Indian Cuisine in Charlottesville, VA

Our two entrees, Butter Chicken hot, and Chicken Tika Masala Indian hot were very good. Oddly the hot Butter Chicken was hotter... than the Indian Hot Tika and neither were spicy at all. So if you're looking for real Indian spice this would not be yourplace. The cucumber appetizer I ordered was inedible. I have never had a dish more salty than this. It was awful. The Chaatwas mediocre to say the least. The man who seemed to be in charge was extremely rude to the Door Dash driver who came to pickup his orders. Read more

Placing online request while seated at our table was cumberson to say the least. However, the wait staff helped a great deal.

My husband and I love this place for date night! The food is always amazing and extremely consistent. Everything we’ve tried... is perfectly spiced, and the portions are perfect to fill you up so you don’t leave hungry. Will always keep coming back formore! Read more

The taste was okay and the quantity was reasonable. However the overpriced salad was a disaster, didn't look fresh and barely... had few pieces of cucumber and onion. Read more

Food was alright. And ordering system felt un human. Had to go through phone rather than talking to waiter. Medium + was like... negative mild for Indian terms. American Indian at best Read more

I have been dining at Maharaja for years. The owners, Jonathan and Jennifer, are friendly and kind. The Host and usually main... server, Inacio, is also friendly and very personable. All the years I have been going there the quality and flavor of the foodis always consistent. I highly recommend Maharaja whether you want an intimate setting for a date or a fun atmosphere for lunch. Read more

Very good, authentic Indian food. It would be helpful to have descriptions of the dishes served on the menu, though. When we had... questions about dishes we were unfamiliar with we were told to look at the menu (which didn’t have descriptions of thedishes). Read more

The food was amazing! If you like spicy, definitely go with the 'Indian Spice'. The portions are massive so plenty to take home... and reheat the next day like I did. This was my husbands goat Madras and my chicken tikka masala reheated. Definitely plan ongoing back. Read more
