Maharaj is a good place for affordable Indian food. They have a great variety that really makes one appreciate how much can be done without meat. That coupled with the fact that they serve reasonably big portions for very low prices makes this a very nice spot.
But If you hope to sit down here then look for somewhere else. The restaurant is small ad cramped. It's best to order here and take your food somewhere comfortable.
Bonus tip to UCT students, they take emergency vouchers here.

one of these days we're going to morph into one person. she'll be medium height and chai coloured in complexion and big-breasted. we've already named her.
but for now we're talking in Ari Sitas voice about squirrels and Steve Jobs. we're understanding mercury on full moon nights and seeing our favourite comedians at The Baxter. R80 was excellent value-for-money for a pre-show dinner of hearty paneer and dahl, and the option of endless plates of it. the meal was as filling as your company, as our gushing about the places we'd like to go: Iran and Sri Lanka and the edge of the world.
i had this fantasy a couple of years ago of what my ideal self would be like. i hoped that she'd have the courage, quietly in the middle of night, to leave for a trip to Japan for a month or so. no one would have known of her plans. they'd only see a Facebook update a couple of days later of her before a Kyoto temple, or against the backdrop of Mount Fuji.
the fantasy remains. but now she'd like to have people to send postcards to; someone like you. and i know you may leave this city, but for now you are an atlas worth of discoveries and experiences to me, as we explore the alleyways of your friendship in foreign tongues. for now you'd be my favourite person to morph into.
Eating dinner at the Majarajah before a show at the Baxter is a great experience. One can't judge them on atmosphere; there's nothing they can do about that. But they make great food, and offer a really reasonable deal for self-service starters, mains and optional dessert. I'm not a big fan of soya mince, and sometimes some of their dishes are made with it, but other than that, I've enjoyed everything I've had there.
As a UCT Dance student, I'm always on Lower Campus & at The Baxter Theatre. I can always rely on this vegan restaurant for an exquisite cup of coffee & beautifully presented meal. Their buns are so fresh & good that I sometimes buy them separately to have at home.
The lunch buffet is value for money. There were no traditional Indian dishes but overall the menu was of good standard and there was certainly enough variety for R50.
What an outstanding dining experience this turned out to be! Our server Thabile truly went above and beyond to ensure we had the best dining experience possible.
The atmosphere was very laid-back, with great music. The food was incredibly amazing, especially the Chateaubriand which was cooked to perfection! The bone marrow was delicious, and the sides delicious!
We also had multiple desserts, which we truly enjoyed. The creme Brule was really good, and the bottles of wine really food! I highly recommend going there for dinner!

Love the setup and decor, very cozy and romantic. Service was top notch even though there were 1 or 2 hiccups it was rectified without hesitation or us as a customer having to say anything. Absolutely loved it. Their Cheesecake is FANTASTIC 😍. Highly recommended their Boerie starter.
This has to be the best filet steak I have ever had it was beautifully rested and medium rare was def the best way to have it.
Service was great it was busy but very attentive.
Highly recommend
Delicious steak meal and cocktails and chocolate vodka were all stellar. Enjoyable atmosphere as well
Tuesday 'date' night special. I don't know how the Hussar afford to do this and still deliver incredible quality and excellent service. Not photos due to amazing company. But absolutely totally worth it.

It's a very chilled place to dine at. I find it very small though, hence there is no space to hang around freely. I loved 😍 their spicy chicken livers! Would wish for the service to be faster. The waiters provide a very good service though. My veges were more boiled than roasted, I didn't like it.
Celebrated my birthday there yesterday. We didnt have a reservation but they made a plan for us, so thankful for that.
The food,the services the ambiance, the prices,the portion 10/10. Thank you so much to the team for taking care of us from the moment we entered till we left 👏
Having being a patron on & off since the early 1970's it's disappointing to see how the cuts of steak no longer look like a particular cut. A rump is a rounded cut with an amount of fat from the eye of the rump. Now one receives a lump of meat, extremely tasty, but certainly not resembling a rump at all. My guest received two separate pieces of meat.
Obviously to serve a rump of old would be prohibitively expensive so times have changed. One would be better served to buy a rump at a butcher & cook it at home. Obviously that Steakhouse atmosphere will be missed. Noticeably the portions of chips, bernaise sauce are smaller.
Service and ambiance still impeccable.
Went for a quick dinner. Ended up having a great time. Thank you Jabulani.
The atmosphere was unmatched, the waiter was super friendly and made the date that much more enjoyable. Steaks cooked to perfection every time! Will be paying another visit soon😁
