The buffet offers a selection of the most loved Indian foods. And they taste just like they do where I discovered and enjoyed them in the San Francisco Bay Area. Truly authentic !

Murgh malai kabob, murgh Wajid Ali. Amazingly delicious!! Also tried chole and bhatura. All turned out great. Got a delivery. They came at 12am to deliver the food. Haven't seen the place in person

Tried the Murgh Wajid Ali. Very delicious and served nicely. It is chicken with creamy sauce and ground nuts. Mango Lassi was also very good.

Best chicken tikka masala I’ve ever eaten! Attractive setting overlooking the hustle and bustle of Harvard Square’s JFK Boulevard.

The menu will hit favorites & specialities alike, from Tandoori lobster to Murgh Wajid Ali, a creamy saffron forward dish of chicken breasts stuffed with paneer & nuts. Read more

For appetizers, have the galouti kebab and the shammi kebab, and any naan at all.Dishes are well seasoned, but not overly so- to get spicier food, order a side order of “pickle." Read more

Finally reopened. They are very short staffed- give it a month before you go here!

Maharaja isn't far from here, but they ain't letting me out of here just so I can eat and have a few cold ones. Stuck at Spaulding Cambridge hospital for now. Bah!
