Maharaja's Lakeside Indian Restaurant

When one thinks of an Indian palace by a lake, the immediate images that spring to mind are of the iconic Taj Mahal, rising above the waters, the Golden Temple in Amritsar, spiritual centre of the Sikh religion, or at a push the Ananthapura Lake Temple in Kerala, one of the most beautiful religious sites in India. These are all relatively expensive and difficult to reach from Sydney however, so get your lake-themed Indian kicks from Maharaja’s Lakeside Indian Restaurant in Baulkham Hills. They’ll serve you up a huge range of subcontinental specialities that include tandoori meats, classic curries and regional Indian delicacies until you’re absolutely sated. Book a table today.

The Maharajas were the ancient kings of India and the progenitors of the famed Mughal Empire, the cuisine of which is the basis of almost all Western Indian restaurants. It’s understandable, then, that Maharaja’s Lakeside Indian Restaurant specialise in the most decadent of Indian delicacies – pick one of their banquets and make the very most of what they have to offer out in Baulkham Hills, close to the Strangers Creek lake and reached easily via Norwest Boulevard.

The banquets at Maharaja’s are really something special. Bring a mate – they start from two people – and include seekh kebabs, chicken tikka and onion bhaji to start, butter chicken, beef vindaloo and veggie jalfrezi with raita, naan and basmati rice to follow and ice cream to finish. We can’t say fairer than that – and neither can they over at Norwest Boulevard in Baulkham Hills. Make the journey up there to enjoy one of the best curry houses in Sydney, but do remember to book ahead as they have been known to get quite crowded on occasion and this is certainly not one to be missed.
