Is there anything better than not having to bother preparing food when you get in after a busy day whether you’ve been out shopping, at work or just with friends?  Sure, a takeaway meal can feel a bit decadent but after a busy day you deserve it.  When the choice is a greasy chippy, bland Chinese or a curry bursting with flavour there surely is little choice at all.  There is surely nothing better and more fulfilling than a curry cooked to perfection by a great Indian chef like ours here at the Maharajahs in Edinburgh.

Indian Food to your Door

If you fancy a great meal – whether sat in your pyjamas after a long day or just out of sheer love of great food give us a call.  Our full Indian Takeaway menu is available for you whether you are looking to pick up a takeaway or are taking advantage of our home delivery service.  Our drivers are ready to zoom around Liberton, Little France to satisfy your cravings.

Christmas is coming and the love it / hate it merry go round of nights out to celebrate. Whether it is with work colleagues, football friends, family or people you’ve not seen for months, there is no escape from it. So whether you’re a love it or hate it type, whatever you end up doing, the most important thing is to make sure you’re going to enjoy any food or drink.

Christmas Curry

Here at Maharajahs Indian Restaurant and Takeaway we’ll be offering a set banquet meal over the festive period for only £14.95 a head (complete with free corkage on any bottles that you bring yourself). What this means is great Indian food without having to blow the budget on an overpriced mass produced turkey dinner.

A typical Indian Christmas Menu

Wouldn’t Christmas dinner be better with a bit of spicy heat? For your meal here you will get a selection of our great starters to kick the meal off, lovely samosas, pakoras and kebabs complete with dips to enhance the flavours.

To follow we’ll provide a range of our great curries (meaty or vegetarian to suit your audience) and we’ll range the spices to suit the tastes at the table. These dishes will be served with mountains of fluffy pilau rice and lip smacking nan bread.

So get on the phone and book your table now – we promise there won’t be a turkey in sight! Call us now on 0131 466 7281.

Takeaway & Delivery

Our Takeaway and Delivery service will also be available over Christmas and New Year but on these public holidays we recommend you make your order in advance.

Autumn is truly here now – leaves are falling of the trees and it’s getting dark earlier and earlier. All that can mean is that Winter isn’t far away – and given last year’s weather getting out of the house isn’t going to be that appealing!

Edinburgh in August is something else – as the festival hits town and the whole city is absorbed in a full range of different forms of entertainment – ranging from some of the best comedy to world renowned dance troupes, circuses and the vibrance and colour of the annual visit of the Lady Boys of Bangkok!

Located in a world of guest houses and hotels – we know the city is busy – and whilst there is nothing like getting involved and soaking up the atmosphere – sometimes there is nothing better than getting away from the crowds. Whether you stay nearby – or just want to get away from the hustle and bustle – stretch your legs and get along to the Maharajahs – great food at a safe distance from the madness!

To all you people coming to stay in Edinburgh – we can strongly recommend the nearby area of Newington.  Almost every house there is a guest house or bed and breakfast – ranging from the reasonable to the fantastic – but all have 2 very special qualities.

Firstly, they are in the beautiful city of Edinburgh we call home – and secondly they are all close enough to our Indian Restaurant for you to stroll along and see us.

The Edinburgh Royal Mile and then a Real Curry

After a long day out sightseeing some of Edinburgh’s fine offerings, there is nothing better than a good hearty meal to recharge the batteries.  We are pretty sure that our food betters anything that your guest house can offer – so either come along and dine in our restaurant – or pick up a takeaway and nibble in your bedroom!

We are proud to offer takeaway and delivery locally to our restaurant – but that can be a challenge!!

Anybody who has been trying to buy a house in Edinburgh recently will have discovered that some areas of the city are bigger than others.

A perfect example of this is the lovely area of Liberton where our Indian Restaurant and Takeaway is situated. A quick look at houses in the Liberton area will come up with a range of properties ranging from walking distance to a decent drive away from us.

Whilst we’re more than happy for you to come and collect your meal – if you fancy us bringing it to your door (free for orders over £12 within 2 miles) you may be keen to know where we deliver to.

If you’re not sure if we’ll deliver to you – do you live in any of the following places? Alnwickhill, Blackford, Braids, Burdiehouse, Cameron Toll, Carnbee, Craigmillar, Frogston, Gilmerton, Grange, Howdenhall, Liberton, Little France, Loanhead, Marchmont, Mayfield, Moredun ark, Morningside, Mortonhall, Newington, Niddrie, Old Dalkeith Road, Swanston, The Inch or The Murrays?

Not sure – or if you live somewhere else nearby – give us a call on 0131 466 7281 and we’ll tell you if we’ll deliver to you.

Each month we have a look through our fantastic authentic Indian menu and find a dish that we think sums up exactly what we are about – true quality Indian food.  This month our featured dish is one that will please vegetarians and meat eaters alike – the fantastic Panir Massallam.

Panir Massallam is a classic in Indian restaurants all across the world and the effort and skill we put into ours means you’ll be hard pushed to find better than ours in Edinburgh!

Many of our readers will already be a big fan of this dish that combines a lovely mildly spiced sauce with the freshness of real Indian cheese.  If that sounds worryingly like a cheese fondue don’t worry – Panir stays in lovely bite size pieces.

Give it a try next you’re in our restaurant or order now for a takeaway.

When you head out for an Indian meal – are you hoping for something with a bit of spice?  There is a time and a place for everything – but sometimes you just want an authentic Indian meal with real heat to it.  None of these are for anyone with a delicate palate – but we certainly are more than happy to create these great curries if you just ask!

The Hottest Restaurant in Edinburgh

The Vindaloo Curry Dish

Our first dish is one you will already know – the Vindaloo. Although, almost legendary for it’s heat – this is a great tasting curry for those in the know – and heatwise – it is only third in our list.

The Phall Curry Dish

For our second dish, we introduce the Phall and the more observant of you will have noticed that it doesn’t feature on our menu. Amazingly, we get more requests for a Phall than a Vindaloo – and our chefs are always happy to oblige. This one will make the Vindaloo seem like a mild Korma!

The Naga Curry Dish

The final dish on our list is the legendary Naga. Made with the famous Naga Chilli (or the Bhut Jolokia pepper) there is every chance that this dish will burn your tongue instantly. The Chillis used in this dish are used in India for crowd control purposes – so don’t say you haven’t been warned!!
