Our Story

About Us

Most Indian cuisine is related by the similar usage of spices and the use of a greater variety of vegetables than many other cuisines. Religious and caste restrictions, weather, geography, and the impact of foreigners have influenced the eating habits of Indians. Indian food is a mosaic evolved from many influences and cultures – Turkish, Persian, Afghan, Mediterranean and Indian cuisine with a choice of some Italian dishes as well, blending with local and regional specialties.

From this rich heritage, Maharaja Indian Restaurant in Nepean brings a selection of dishes that are particularly well suited to the Melbournian palate. Maharaja Tandoori Cuisine’s spices and herbs are stone-ground in the traditional manner, and our specialties are cooked according to the ancient principles of the princely houses. Our Indian bread is prepared in the unique Tandoori style, using a clay oven.
