    We visited the Ohare location. Maharaj Grill is a wonderful option for authentic, delicious indian fare. We started our meal with complimentary papadum and two sauces which were delicious and a perfect start. The appetizer Aloo Tika with Chana was so delicious and the right level of spice. The silky and creamy chicken tikka masala (mild) was delicious - I will try the medium spice next time! The Palak Paneer was wonderful - I highly recommend it. We paired both with Jeera Rice and a naan bread basket. The Naan was THE BEST I have ever had. Made in their own tandoori oven on site, it was so fresh, so soft, and just delicious (be warned - the bread basket could feed 4-5!). Highly recommend a trip there!

    Amazing food and great ambiance. The servers came by often to give us new plates and silverware. We had the octopus sopecitos, lamb biriyani, chai and rasmali tres leches cake and they were all so delicious. We will definitely be coming back!
