Iâve never written a review like this, but I feel it's important to share my terrible experience at Maharaja Tandoori Restaurant in Rugby. We went there for dinner on my birthday, expecting a nice meal. As soon as we stepped inside, we were hit by a damp, musty smell, which might have felt stronger since we had just come from fresh air. Eventually, we got used to it, but the problems continued. We noticed a hair on the table, and without us saying anything, the waiter noticed and removed it
We ordered starters, but they were undercooked, and things only got worse. We hoped the mains would be better, but they weren't. The Puri was undercooked, and the color of the food was offâit just looked unappetizing. We also ordered Keema Barata and Tandoori Chicken, but the Tandoori Chicken was the toughest and most undercooked chicken Iâve ever had. To make matters worse, we even ordered a Coke, and it was served flat, with no Fizz in it
When we pointed out the undercooked chicken to the staff, they offered a replacement, but we declined, suspecting the chicken was old stock. Given that it was a Monday, the food seemed like it had been sitting around for a whileâcompletely inedible, tough, and undercooked.
I rarely complain about food, but this was by far the worst dining experience Iâve had in the UK. The starters werenât cooked properly, the Tandoori wasnât cooked, and even the Coke was flat! This place shouldnât call itself an Indian restaurant. To make matters worse, after I got home, I had severe vomiting, which only added to the disaster of...
   Read moreThis is an interesting one good lady and I fancy to curry as we haven't had one for quite a while so as I was traveling through rugby I decided to have a quick look at Google Maps recommendations for curry houses in Rugby they're quite a few to choose from with 4.4 star ratings and good number of reviews but this particular establishment came at the top so I thought in for Penny in for a pound, un arrival I was greeted by a member of staff who is very friendly very polite and took my order in Great details I'm inquired how long it was going to for my takeaway I was told only 10 minutes. 10 minutes arrived and like a seen out of Mr Ben where the shop owner appeared like magic ( old kids tv reference) a waiter appeared carrying my takeaway beautifully on time. I rushed home with Great Expectations but this where things started to go arey...... after unpacking it all first impressions were good it all looked very nice but to be honest with you it was very Bland and really lacked any form of heat or excitement having been a regular customer of a Indian restaurant in Lutterworth the food really let down the atmosphere of this restaurant the staff who were exceptional. I really don't want to give a three-star rating to this establishment because it has so many good things going for it but the number one thing they specialize in was underwhelmingly Bland really a great disappointment to both my good lady and I, sorry guys but must try harder on...
   Read moreAfter first few bites had to throw all 3 items into bin. My stomach is still a bit upset from those few bites. Ordered chefâs special butter chicken tikka and it had no taste, chicken pieces were so hard that Iâve never eaten such bland/tasteless and hard chicken tikka ever! I also Chicken biriyani and have never tasted anything so pathetic. I could taste raw turmeric on rice and chicken. Again it was tasteless and chicken was smelling stale. Never tasted such atrocious biriyani in my life. The vegetables curry was smelling stale too and was tasteless. Never eaten such pathetic food. Order Did not live up to the other great reviews I read. Never ordering...
