Maharani Indian Cuisine

Over the years, the quality of the food and the service had declined.
They used to have great food, but maybe over the years the chef changed– and the quality has come down.
It is a cross between an English bar and Indian restaurant.
If you are concerned about ambience, you may not like it.
I honestly believe they need to decide what type of restaurant they want to be — an authentic Indian restaurant or an English bar– having both under one roof is not a bright idea.

Went to eat here tonight, and the placed looks like it has shut down unfortunately.

The food was great, the staff friendly, the atmosphere was a little lacking.
I ask for extra hot and wasn’t very hot.
I would suggest this place to people wanting Indian on a budget or to people looking for a local sports bar.

A funky bar with cheap beers with top notch Indian food in our neighborhood. They have Organic Mill Street Beer for $ 4 for a pint. Their chicken pakora and samosa are must-​try. How many bars in Toronto serve Indian food other than burgers and wings?
Definitely go back again.

Awful… We ordered two different vegetable dishes which were actually exactly the same. The vegetable biriyani had no vegetables except potatoes, and the garlic naan was made with granulated garlic. Portions are tiny, except the rice dish. Stay away!

The food was VERY spicy and pretty bland.

I came to Maharani with 4 friends. The food still tasted like Indian food, but the flavour of the 4 dishes was one dimensional. I expected more variety of flavour from the spices. I can attest that the medium hotness was not that hot. The waiter confirmed that the medium hotness at Maharani was similar to the medium hotness at St Louis Wings and Ribs. Consequently, if you like it hot, you should select «hot» hotness.
The interior of the restaurant is partitioned into 2 sections: a bar section with TV, bar tables, etc, and a dining room section. There were customers in both sections during our visit.
In all, this Indian restaurant caters towards a non-​Indian clienteles, as I observed that many patrons were Canadians. You may actually prefer here, because the beer is cheap, and the food has a punch but won’t give you a run to the bathroom.

Top notch Indian without driving to Mississauga or India town. Fish Pakora is the perfect match to your choice of 19 beers on tap. Do not worry about heat they will dial it up or down. Friendly staff and ownership. Quality control is always on the mark I have never been disappointed.
