Restaurant Maharaja - Østerbro København

Maybe 3,5 stars is more accurate. Ordered take away through Wolt. Butter chicken, rice pilao and garlic naan. Chicken was tender, maybe a bit to the soft side for some peoples taste. But clean pieces of chicken breast and no bones, as some of the reviews report as a negative. And actually a good amount of chicken out of the whole dish compared to other places ive tried where its only a couple of pieces in a dish. Sauce was good. Medium complex flavour and depth, but not the best ive had in Copenhagen. But i feel like this is an individual preference of each person and not a 'right or wrong' taste, kind of thing. But i feel like most people would like this type of flavour. It was not too oily or overly fatty and the thickness of the sauce was just right. Rice was okay, but missing a bit of scent and flavour compared to other Pilaos ive tried. But not bad at all. Naan was really nice. Good texture of the bread. Not to chewy(like some regular flatbread) but soft and easy to pull apart. Definitely homemade and not a boring pre-bought one like in some restaurants without respect for themselves. Nice flavour too with some herbs on top with the garlic oil. Could have used a bit more garlic for my taste, but this is probably okay for most people. Overall quality is fine in my opinion. Was a bit worried after i ordered and read some of the reviews though. But i dont agree with the bad reviews on the food. This is definitely not a bad place, as some reviews say, but not the best either. But the owner sounds like a rel piece of work from a lot of the people who physically visited the restaurant.

Really good food! I even chose their lamb tikka masala, it was so delicious!

Ordered as takeaway on Wolt. I had butter chicken, rice, peshwari naan and the poppadom set. Everything was delicious except the peshwari naan. It just tasted like plain naan, it did not have the usual taste of almond and coconut. But would definitely still order again. Food was packaged for delivery really well too I must add.

I picked up a takeout order after my shift, and it was excellent. The food was well-prepared, nicely packaged, and full of flavor — truly delicious. Everything held up perfectly on the way home. Highly recommended for great food.

The food was really tasty, service nice, fast and competent, and so nice atmosphere!

Completely authentic Indian experience. The food was perfectly prepared and tasted exactly as described. The service was top notch and the atmosphere and mood was cozy and very relaxing. 5/5 🤩
