During my 10 day stay in Peniche, I went to Maharani Peniche for 5 times and I was never disappointed! They honestly made the best Indian food I’ve ever had... read more and I already miss their Naan bread, Dahl soup, and those delicious mint, mango, and sweet chili sauces!
Highly recommend this restaurant because, the food tastes great, the entire staff are friendly, and the prices are quite affordable!

Pros: really tasty food, nice environment, friendly service. We made a reservation and they were very kind to book us a table by the window (considering Peniche cold weather, an... read more outside table could not be the best choice)
Improvements: we, as well as other customers, had to wait more than expected for the menus and foodExplorer42286228910

The food is good, the location is good and the boss was friendly, the other waiter not so much BUT it is not possible to be so under staffed... Waiting... read more 30 minutes for the menus. Impossible to get another beer. Lucky if you get any attention at all. Dirty tables from clients that left 50 minutes ago. Hire at least one more person and make a lot more money, let alone the byproduct of happy clients

Come and try it!
I am very critical of Indian restaurants because I am from a city that specializes (Manchester). First let me say this review rating is based... read more wholly on the food and not on the service.
The service was at first slow despite the restaurant being empty, and I had to send the welcome pappadum back as it was old and soft, and the first beer was warm (albeit in a cold glass) but to be fair it was early in the evening. I have had better Mango Chutney but the other dips were tasty. The waiter was very friendly and I can see that he had a bad day before meeting me, but he kept smiling and was helpful, so my review is no reflection on him. If anything he was over apologetic instead of getting it right, he brought the curry on a sizzle plate and a separate plate to eat but no serving spoon which was a thing to mention. When I asked it was correctly presented. He just seemed stressed on this particular day, I’m sure normally it’s 100%
The actual food was in my case (and i dined solo) seekh kebab which was presented nicely and they gave me some hot sauce to try (which I could add myself to my liking) because i said I liked it spicy. The main to the waiters recommendation was Chicken Jalfrezi extra hot with a garlic naan.
The reason it is a 3 and not a 4 is because it was oily. It tasted fantastic don’t get me wrong, but there was a lot of veg and not much chicken, although what there was tasted great, due the sauce and spices such as ginger and hot curry all of which I enjoyed greatly when combined. The naan bread was great. The presentation was great. The price for all this and 3 Super Bock was 22€ - I wouldn’t eat there again but it wasn’t bad. I tipped 3€ and thought it was decent enough, but as I say, curries are my forte.
Thanks for the visit and good luck with everything, i hope my review is honest and fair.Leigh_Hobs

We were looking for vegan options and this is where we found them! The waiter was very familiar with what we do and do not eat which made it relaxing... read more to order. Service overall was very friendly.
The dishes came out piping hot and had a wonderful flavor.
We will be back!Ellen_and_Pedro

Wow wow wow! This is the best Indian food I’ve eaten ever! I really mean that. Yes e been 3 times this week and I’m going tonight. The ingredients are so fresh and authentic. I can’t recommend it enough. Unreal. Mouth is watering thinking about the Dal and Spinach dishes. The breads are amazing. Just go there.

This is the best Indian I have ever been to and I have explored a lot! Very fresh authentic ingredients. Excellent attentive service. I love the metal dishes that keep the food hot. Garlic naan bread and lentil dishes are really tasty. Will visit again!
