Overall 3.3 - Food 6, Value 3, Speed 1
Absolutely disgusting customer service. Ordered through menulog and forgot to add rice.. So called the restaurant direct to add rice onto the order & was assured that rice would be added & would be an extra $3 which was fine.. The order came an hour later with no rice. Called the restaurant and was given every excuse and he was trying to brush me off (obviously intending for me to say not to worry about it) saying that there is no way to contact the driver and he has 5 deliveries before he gets back. Told him I wanted the rice anyway. 1/2 hour later a rice arrived and the driver asked to see the receipt and claimed that we never paid for it (which we did) and continue to argue with me at the front door and ended up handing the rice over saying it was "complimentary". They even complained that menulog charge them too much so it wasn't worth their while getting the driver to bring back a measly $3 container of rice... I was absolutely disgusted and he couldn't care less that I wouldn't eat there again. Nice food but was cold by the time we ate and destroyed the mood of our night... Will NOT eat from here again!

I feel the standard of service has dropped. The last two meals were delivered wrong and took 1.1/2 to arrive then i was asked to go and pick up the correct meal. I refused so had to wait further 1/2 hr for the delivery. (Louise - May, 2012)

Food is pretty good but the delivery time is very poor - It's not even recommendable if you are hungry and can have wait only 1 hour. Yes, it takes that long. (Aenpo - See my reviews (4) - March, 2012)

Overall 5 - Food 5, Value 5, Speed 5
pretty ordinary experience, service ordinary, attitude of waiters ordinary, except for one girl who was pleasant and helpful. Chicken tikka dry, naan bread was good. We asked to be moved away from the music, as my husband cannot speak loudly due to a medical condition and cannot speak over loud music. We asked them to light the heater, which was right near us and their comment was, if you hadn't moved from inside you wouldn't be cold. While we were in the middle of our meal they noisely started to move tables and chairs around. Will not go again and will tell anybody I know not to go there (reviewer - August, 2011)

Person answered the phone as if it were a residence instead of a business. Tried to place a take away order and was stopped midway and was left waiting on the phone for 5 minutes while they answered other calls (I could hear each call). Called on their other number and complained.
When I arrived to pick up the order 30 minutes later, had to wait another 30 minutes. No apology or recompense for the delay. Food was okay.
Will not order from here again with this poor service. (Chris - May, 2011)

We always eat at Maharaja's as well as order deliveries. I would say 10 times out of 10 the food and service is excellent, when we eat in. It is a lovely atmosphere and very authentic. The lunch specials are really good value for money. We only had one incident in three years when our delivery was 2.5 hours late. Overall, we will happily continue to frequent Maharaja's.

We had the food delivered, and although it took over an hour, it was DELICIOUS!
All the meats were cooked to perfection, and the sauces were to die for!
This restaurant has the REAL and TRADITIONAL food of India, not the boring standard dishes (i.e Butter chicken etc) you get from your everyday Indian restaurant.
The menu was lush to say the least!
Friendly service from the delivery man.
Very highly recommended! (Geof - See my reviews (4) - August, 2009)

I was here in Sep 2008 and went back this time to find that the service had improved considerably. Food was good. I had the naans (excellent) and the balti chicken (good). Rather pricey. (Sue - See my reviews (4) - July, 2009)

Overall 7 - Food 8, Value 6, Speed 7
On the whole an above average dining experience. Lost points on service and also prices were on the higher side for a eatery in a shopping centre food court with no seperate entrance or exit.
The ambience is quite good but looses the touch of exclusivity, diners associate with a name like 'Maharaja'. Will recommend it to others for the food but not dining experience. (Ryan Sequeira - March, 2009)

Good food with fresh flavours, that was delivered 15 mins ahead of schedule. We ordered 2 dishes with rice and naan bread which would have been enough for 3 adults. Instead, there is left overs for lunch tomorrow. (Meile - January, 2009)

Food arrived late and cold
We must have been on the end of the delivery line as the food was also dry .
In defence of the restaurant they did call us to advise of the delay. I would not use this restaurant for home delivery again.
Menulog was most effecient (Yaringa - August, 2008)
