We had a fantastic experience at this Indian restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious from start to finish. The rose lassi was refreshing and perfectly balanced, and both the aloo dal and baingan korma were rich, flavorful, and comforting. The samosas were crisp and paired beautifully with a variety of chutneys, each adding its own unique taste. The real showstopper was the cheese naan—soft, cheesy, and simply irresistible. Portion sizes are very generous—we couldn’t finish everything, so make sure to order accordingly. Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic and satisfying Indian food!

10 out of 10. Food was Excellent. We’ve probably drove past here 100 times but recently was told about this place. Food was delicious. They open up at 5pm. Get there early bc the place will fill up. We had Lamb Saag and my friend had one of chicken dishes. Both meats were fork tender and very tasty. The spice was just right. We shared the rice bc the items are served Ala carte. The huge Garluc Naan was only $11.99 and plenty of leftovers. Highly recommend- it was a good change of pace. Bella was our waitress but be patient bc they are busy. Bring your own beverages if you want something more than water or sodas. They will allow you to bring your own wine.

We went there based on a friend’s recommendation. The restaurant doesn’t take reservations, so we waited about 30min even though it was a weekday. I’m usually not the type that would wait, but my friends said it would be worth it.

They were right! Best Indian food I had in Oahu so far. Rich flavours, big portions, absolutely delicious . We only ordered 1 main dish per person, and still needed to go boxes.

Our waitress Bella was sweet, efficient and kind. The interior decoration was fun and colorful. Look up at the ceiling.

We didn’t take good pictures of the dishes because the food smelled so good, we just wanted to dig in and eat!

Do yourself a favor and order the chicken karahi at Cafe Maharani. So yummy and comes with rice and giant naan. Love this place and will be back soon. Mahalo!

This is one of the first Indian restaurant that we tried on the island and it did not disappoint. We loved all the dishes we got. Also the portion was very generous.

I do not usually leave bad reviews, but after our recent experience, I felt it was important to share. My family and I traveled all the way from New Jersey to Hawaii, excited to try a place we had heard so much about. Unfortunately, our visit turned into a very frustrating experience.
We arrived at the restaurant with a group of six, and right away, we learned they do not take reservations, which was fine since we were happy to wait if it meant we could enjoy a good meal. However, we ended up waiting for over an hour and a half without any updates from the staff. To make matters worse, when we finally asked about being seated, we were told they could not accommodate us because of our larger party size. But no one made an effort to fit us in, nor did they offer any kind of solution or apology.
What was especially frustrating was the lack of communication. They did not inform us upfront that they might not be able to accommodate us, leaving us standing around for so long. It would have been much more considerate if they had told us earlier.
We were really looking forward to trying the food, especially after hearing so many positive things, but the service was a huge letdown. It seemed like they were not prepared to handle a group our size, and they did nothing to make the experience better for us.
Ultimately, we left without eating there at all, which was a huge disappointment. For a place that is so highly recommended, the lack of effort and hospitality was incredibly surprising. I hope they can take this feedback seriously and improve how they handle reservations, walk-ins, and larger parties.
Sadly, we would not be returning.

A nice Indian spot in the heart of Honolulu. Went with my friend ordered dinner for 2. We got eggplant appetizer which was very addictive and two entries one of butter chicken and one of the ginger chicken it has a ethnic name but I can’t remember. Is good. We both ate a big meal and left with 2 set of leftovers so it was worth it the price.

Craving for some Indian foods, it did not disappoint! We were party of 5, we ordered the dinner for 4 meal. It was too much and took home the rest. Very tasty and portions were pretty large. We ordered the very large nan and the cheese stuffed nan as well, we all agreed we will order it again!
We will definitely go back as soon as they open at 5pm. You may bring your alcohol with a very small fee per glass. They get crowded pretty fast but the wait is all worth it! Highly recommend!

I have been here several times over the years. They are pretty consistent. The mango lassi and lamb vindaloo are delicious. The tandoori mixed plate lamb was over cooked and hard to cut this evening. Overall a decent dining experience. They charge for certain takeout containers and a menu item didn’t match my bill. They have parking in the back of the restaurant.

Birthday celebration called for a feast and feast we did. Dinner for 3 (mine was the Lamb Balta Rice) Tandoori Party Platter, Tandoori Chicken Platter. Idk what theirs were. The food was fantastic, tasted fresh, perfectly seasoned. It was a packed-house at 6:30pm but luckily we didn’t have to wait and most people were finishing up.

Great paintings and atmosphere. Didn’t take too many pics of the landscape because of the rush. I recommend going on an empty stomach to not take leftovers unless you can refrigerate after. We took leftover for sure as we devoured our appetizers. Mango lassi was really great as well.
