Update: We went for another Wednesday evening for the specials and it's such a good deal.
First 2 pics was taken last week.
Went there yesterday a week later after our last visit.
Our food was served fast on a busy Wednesday curry night. Always never disappoints and went home happy after eating 🤣. Serving is big I couldn't finish it so I had to take home some of it and ate it as my midnight snack now I can sleep peacefully 🤣
We haven’t ordered from Maharani's for a while so we thought we’d give them a go. We ordered food via delivery from their website which was quick and easy to do. Food arrived piping hot and it was really tasty with generous portions.
Of particular note was the chat puri, being a starter it was a decent portion size and extremely good!. Naan bread wasn’t too thick and properly garlicky. The balti and jalfrezi tasted awesome, we were both left feeling very full but delighted.
Great food, we've ordered a few times now and they have never disappointed!
Update: The Rara Ghost is my new favourite curry ever. Highly recommended..
Ordered a delivery.
It turned up in half an hour. Very impressive!!!
And the food was very good.
My first time ordering and I’m impressed.
Will definitely be ordering again.

Some really interesting chinese/indian fusions on the starters - vegetable manchurian came in a sticky soy glaze with finely diced bell pepper and onion. The chicken momo was an indian inspired take on chinese dim sum- with a peanut and soy dipping sauce.
The railway curry ( which is why we visited in the first place) scored 10/10 from my hubby who said it was the best he had ever had. Only suggestion would be to let the onions and peppers on the cast iron sizzler, cook for longer so they have a char to them - mine were a bit too raw for my liking.

We frequent the various curry houses in Peterborough on a regular basis as well as going into London for the Michelin star curry offerings, add to that half our family originates from Pakistan, indirect way of saying we know our stuff when it comes to this type of food!
After being hugely disappointed with certain restaurants going downhill, rapidly, and increasing their prices, substantially we thought we'd try Maharanis. I'm not sure why but its never really been on our radar.
We turned up last Friday without a reservation and got seated quickly.
To keep it brief, the curries... out of this world. Whatever chef you had cooking on Friday, do not ever let them leave. Unique, tasty and fresh. Not your standard English-ified bland curries like every other restaurant in Peterborough.
Last year we spent some time in Sri Lanka and the food was on-par with that, really unique and special. Keep up the good work.
I would have given 4 stars rather than 5 but the mains are just too good, the reason I'd have knocked a star off:
- Pickle tray - No pickle in it! Please add a pickle and remove the weird ketchup.
- Poppadoms - Slightly stale unfortunately.
- Glasses - Not 100% clean, slightly off putting.
As I said though, the flavours experienced here are like nothing else in Peterborough, I can't not give 5 stars!
Very tasty food with good service, not to long a wait.
Had a takeaway meal from here recently. Really enjoyable Railway curry - tasty and plenty of tender chicken. Portions very good. Will be back.
One of my favourite Indian restaurants. The flavours are nice and much less spicy than your typical Indian restaurant. Although occasionally the flavours are bland and could have a couple more pieces of meat, maybe it's the chef on the day?
It’s my husbands birthday tonight so we did a big order for family. It was delivered on time, was absolutely lovely and our only complaint was that one dish was missing which was delivered really quickly. This would have been 5 stars if it wasn’t for that but the restaurant rectified it in 10 minutes. Lovely food and thank you.
The best Indian Restaurant in Peterborough by far.
Very good prices and newly decorated. The staff are very understanding of allergies i have been going here years its the only one i trust and the food is very nice too always have a good meal.
We have always had excellent food and service at Maharanis. We had booked a table for my birthday tonight but unfortunately my ill health forced us to cancel. We had a meal delivered instead. To say it was delicious is understating it! Our order arrived promptly and hot (temperature wise). Every dish was perfectly spiced. Hopefully we will be able to visit again soon, health allowing . Thank you to Farooq and his superb team.
Always a pleasure to go here. Not had a bad meal yet.
Wish they would expand their delivery by a mile or two, so i could order takeaway from here!
I mainly ordered food for takeaways, and must say the quality of food is excellent in terms of taste, freshness, price and portion size. However they can cut down a little on oil. The customer service has been wonderful, very warm and friendly people. Yesterday one of the curries that i ordered was sent wrong and they promptly delivered me right one within no time, despite it was nearing their closing time and they had only one delivery drivers. I would highly recommend it.
