    I tried Maharani on the recommendation of a friend, who declared it the best in town. I hope that…read moreisn't true. The portions were generous and well priced, and I was quite taken with the cosy little restaurant when we went to collect the food. But alas the food was only edible, not enjoyable. The rice and poppadoms were fine, but our Gobi Aloo was too bland and undercooked for my taste and the chana masala too oily. The chicken jalfrezi my boy and I pushed to one side after one bite, as it was made with huge chunks of chicken tikka of dubious quality. The sort of tough, dry meat I think of as 'catering meat', probably bought in big frozen bags of pre-cooked lumps. This is a personal thing, as I tend to be a bit precious when it comes to eating meat these days. I look forward to trying Colchester's other Indian restaurants on my future visits, in the hope of finding one which really is the town's finest.

    I just signed up for yelp because of our awful experience here at maharani. My girlfriend and I…read morewere treated so badly and spoken too so rudely I am still in shock. We waited almost an hour for some food, and we're in the place for over 2.5 hrs. I kindly and politely asked if there was a reason we had to wait almost an hour for our food and our waiter said, busy, we are busy. There were only two other tables with ppl inside. I respectfully asked the waiter if he thought it reasonable to make it up to us and he said " pay and leave, of you have a problem come back tomorrow and talk to the manager". WOW. Karma will come around, it always does. The food was mediocre at best, so many other Indian restaurants to eat in colchester go somewhere where people care. These people don't deserve to stay in business.
