Maharajah East Indian Cuisine - Calgary

I've visited this place a few times for the lunch buffet, and it's never been crowded, plus there are plenty of tables available. The all-you-can-eat lunch buffet costs $16.95 and offers a wide variety of dishes, all of which are quite tasty. Skip the salad; instead, focus on the entrees, which come with rice and naan bread. There's also a small selection of desserts to try.

A Fine Ruler of Your Senses!. I have become a regular at this establishment their lunch buffet is fabulous at a very reasonable price (be sure to book a reservation or it will be hard to get a table. Worse case scenario is that you can take your buffet selections to go) and their dinner offerings make this a great place to dine at before taking in a show. Fragrant, tender and delicately spiced, their Goa Fish curry is an amazing dish that leaves you wanting more of it. Their knack for using only fresh ingredients leaves you feeling satisfied, without that bloated and uncomfortable feeling some East Indian restaurants leave behind, and it is very common to find business meals taking place both at lunch and in the evening. Also, a big score is that I was able to bring in my very young son in his stroller. Great food, great on accessibility, and the service is prompt and pleasant. Can't ask for anything more!

We ordered a Potato Stuffed Paratha, Garlic Naan, Butter Naan, Raita, Kashmiri Pilau Rice, Dal Tadka, and Masala Chai. Everything was delightful, with the Dal Tadka being particularly outstanding. The naans were soft and delicious, although the paratha was just okay. I was especially eager to try the Masala Chai since we were looking for an Indian restaurant, but it was only average. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place. They also offer a buffet, which was closed during our visit but seems worth exploring. While the staff was generally good, towards the end of our meal, it became a bit challenging to get their attention for clearing the table and settling the bill, which made us a little rushed as we were running late.

I was responsible for choosing a restaurant for a business lunch and recommended Maharajah due to its convenient location near work and the buffet style that allows for a quick meal. The outside of the restaurant doesn’t stand out much, so I was pleasantly surprised by the expansive and tastefully decorated interior. I especially appreciated the chandeliers hanging from the ceilings.

Good non veg food and deserts. I went there for buffet lunch and the food was good. On that day, they had prepared keema matar, butter chicken and tandoorI chicken in the non veg and I found Keema matar best among these 3. There were several items in the deserts as well, so good place for a person with sweet tooth.
