Mayas Indian Restaurant

"My son and I had lunch at Maya last Friday in the service was prompt, and the food was outstanding. The restaurant is small, but very cozy. We actually spent two hours there. We enjoyed it so much. I had eaten at Maya several years before when I lived in Cincinnati previously, and it was exactly as I remembered it. The food is the best Indian food I’ve ever eaten anywhere."

"We loved it! I couldn't tell you what we had because I often have Indian food and forget the name, but we all got something and shared it and everything we ate tasted great! The restaurant is small, perhaps 5-10 tables or so. The man that helped us, (he greeted us, seated us, answered the phone, helped serve the food) said that 80% of their business is take out. While we were eating, we saw a steady stream of people coming into pick up food to take out, and it was a Thursday evening. Very friendly nice staff, clean restaurant (a little cluttered, but clean). Not a lot for ambiance, but it was clean and nice and the food was excellent; defiantly I would recommend take out, dine in if you don't mind a hole in the wall kind of setting (I don't mean that disrespectfully, just don't know how to describe it). I will go back and I would take a friend if we were looking for place to eat. I recommend it!"

"This might be the best place in Columbus to grab some delicious Indian food. We tried the garlic naan, paneer naan, chicken biryani, lamb choli, and goat saag. Everything was delicious, and the portion sizes were huge (especially for the naan). The naan was crispy and poufy, and all of the main dishes were very well spiced. We ordered max spicy for the saag and it wasn't the blow-your-face-off spicy that you sometimes get with Indian food, so go crazy. The goat was the only dish that had bones in it, so just be aware of that. There's a little bit of parking around back."

"Rating mostly on the food quality and taste. We tried the fish pakora and mix platter at first in appetizers. Fish pakora was one of the best I have had in the US so far. It was very hot and crispy. We followed with paratha and chicken tikka masala. Parathas are too big and tasty too. You should probably only order one paratha for every 2 people for it to not get wasted. Chicken tikka masala tasted ok. We also tried shrimp biryani which was really good. We ended up with special chai which wasn't really that special. The only feedback I would give to the restaurant is to tell their customers their best dishes from the menu. We came from far away and only wanted to try their best dishes, however, when asked about it, we were said there is no special dish and everything is good."
