The Maharaja Cuisine Of India - Gresham

I found myself debating whether to give this restaurant a 4 or 5-star rating. I was genuinely surprised to discover such authentic cuisine in a location so removed from the usual ethnic spots. While the owner's management style feels somewhat inexperienced, it's clear that the kitchen staff must have learned from someone who truly knows their craft. The blend of spices in each dish transported me back to East 8th Street in NYC and reminded me of my time in Hyderabad. I recommend bringing a few friends along so you can sample a variety of dishes, including the Tandoori.

What a gem! My family and I absolutely love this place. The food is made from scratch, the staff is fantastic, and the prices are incredibly reasonable – plus, you get a free starter! They offer a wide selection of vegetarian and vegan options, with over a page of choices. You simply must try the samosas – they’re outstanding! The staff truly treats everyone well and puts so much love into their dishes. This is definitely a must-visit restaurant, and I give it a 5/5!

As for the lunch buffet, it was priced at $10.99 in 2019. The food was flavorful, and while the selection was not extremely extensive, it was what I expected for that price point. Due to health department regulations, they keep meats and other rich dishes close to boiling point for safety, which meant the food was generally fresh. However, since I arrived just before the lunch hour ended at 1:30 PM, some items were slightly overcooked. The owner kindly refilled my water glass several times and quickly cleared away used dishes, ensuring my table stayed tidy. The atmosphere was quite calm—though I personally enjoy a bit more noise—enhanced by Hindi videos playing on a large screen. I definitely plan to return. The buffet offered dishes like lamb, chicken, and a variety of vegetable options, along with perfectly cooked rice, classic bread, and fried pastries. There were several toppings and side dishes available in this all-you-can-eat setup. I look forward to trying more menu items on my next visit. With its elegant ballroom featuring beautiful chandeliers and a full bar, this restaurant seems like a fantastic venue for family gatherings or corporate events. The new ownership has brought a fresh spirit to the place, leaving behind the stale atmosphere of the previous management. If we all support this restaurant, I believe it will thrive in our community this winter. Spread the word to your friends!

Great Indian lunch buffet was 10.99. Just wish the owner/server guy was a little more outgoing. But the food was spot on. Hats off to the 2 ladies cooking up that beatiful food. I for sure will be going back for the food ...... not the tall guy in thesuit. Man a smile and eye contact goes long way. Hint hint

1/25/2019 Second time here and everything was fantastic again. Great prices at ten bucks per dinner dish, and four dollars for two samosas, made from scratch. Very friendly service both times. Hot food pretty quickly. Extremely flavorful with freshherbs and spices. I'm so glad we tried this place. The restaurant front looks a little boring but it's the total oppositeinside. Cool lights around the bar and fun India music videos on the tv. Lots of vegetarian options. Love this place!
