Awesome choice for Indian lunch buffet, or just lunch in general! Located at the West Seattle junction, this place is a great find. The food was fresh, tasty, and just the right amount of selection. You will definetely get your fill for the money!

(disclaimer: We recently moved down from Anchorage Alaska— which boasts exactly one mediocre Indian Restaurant. Since our move own, I’ve eaten at “Flavor of India” in Pioneer Square, which is pretty darn mediocre. To be fair, the only food I ever ate was their lunch buffet.)

I’ve walked by Maharaja a dozen times. The wife and I finally gave it a shot a month or so back (we meant to go to Jack’s, but it was closed for a “Snow Day”).

We found the whole experience pretty wonderful.

They offer a vegetarian or non-vegetarian combo which seems like a pretty flexible way to have a taste from a lot of menu items, so we went for it (though I’d rather be called a “carnivore” than a “non-vegetarian”, dammit!).

It offered a choice of samosas, a chicken dish of our choice, a veg dish of our choice, tandoori chicken, rice, raita, and our choice of naan.

Service was solid, decor is standard for an Indian place (kinda gaudy), and (according to other reviews on Yelp) they evidently deliver. Woot.

We’ll be going back soon, just as soon as we finish the copious leftovers we brought home.

The food can be a little greasy, but it’s quite good, and they know how to turn up the heat — this is one of the few places where I’m unwilling to order the maximum spice level!
