About the Business

Welcome to Maharajas Indian Restaurant, located in Lower Hutt on Cuba Street. Established in 1991 by Vasant Ranchhod, Maharajas started as a spice retail business but soon recognized the growing demand for an authentic Indian dining experience in the Hutt Valley. In November 1991, Maharajas opened its doors as a restaurant and quickly became a popular point of interest for food enthusiasts.
Initially, Maharajas operated with a modest 24 seating capacity, consistently attracting a full house due to its delectable Indian cuisine. As the restaurant's popularity soared, it became evident that expansion was necessary. Taking a leap of faith, Vasant decided to increase the seating capacity to its current 150 seats, ensuring that more patrons could indulge in the flavors of India.
Despite its growth, Maharajas remains grounded in its humble beginnings. While the setting and decor have transformed into an elaborate Indian Dining Hall, we have always prioritized affordability, ensuring that our prices remain within reach for all. Our aim is to serve you fresh, artisan-style Indian cuisine that is bursting with flavors, all within a relaxed and friendly environment.
At Maharajas, we believe that every meal should be a memorable experience. Our dedicated team is committed to creating dishes that are not only delicious but also reflect the rich culinary heritage of India. From traditional favorites like butter chicken and biryani to innovative fusion creations, our menu offers a wide range of options to satisfy every palate.
Whether you're looking to enjoy a meal in our inviting restaurant or prefer the convenience of takeaway, Maharajas is here to exceed your expectations. Join us at 87-89 Cuba Street and embark on a culinary journey that will transport you to the vibrant streets of India.
Reviews
"I visited this place a few days back and I absolutely loved the food here. Highly recommended if you are looking for good Indian food"
"We eat takeaways from here every couple of months but this time something has changed. The food was not has flavoursome as they used to be.. quite one dimensional and on the sweeter side. Was quite disappointed :("
"Great food, good service and location. Highly recommend! Try the kathi rolls, they are awesome."
"Amazing atmosphere and real, authentic Indian cuisine. If you are a real fan of proper spicy food (and you can really handle the heat), mention "Indian hot" with your order. The staff were very polite and the owner came around a few times to ensure that we had everything we needed. Thank you for a slice of tasty spice wonderland in Wellington! Will be back for more when we visit NZ again."
