Maza Desi Eatery

Finally I’ve got a favourite local! Though a little lacking it may be in terms if décor, Maza Desi serves absolutely stunning fresh food. The paneer tikka starter is delicious as is the kebab roll (though for me and my friend just a little too fiery). The rolls are around £2.20 so a complete steal. I have tried a bunch of their vegetarian mains and they were just perfect. But… The real clue is the Peshwari naan! Oh my god! Sweet rich fresh. Perfection. I can’t praise the food highly enough. I’m glad this place has opened around the corner as it is now my new local Indian. Forget Tayyabs… walk just a couple of doors further along from there to find Maza Desi.

I have been to numerous Indian restaurants both in London and in other UK cities, but I have to admit nothing compares to my recent discovery, Maza eatery, a new restaurant in the Whitechapel area (next to Tayyabs).
The food was amazing! Big portions but much more importantly very, very delicious! All the ingredients were very fresh, and the food was cooked to perfection.
The menu was well thought, and there was a big variety of starters, main dishes and desserts to suit all tastes. I personally had the Karahi kebab curry, which was moderately spicy, and I loved it! My friend had the Palak Paneer, which was a spinach based dish (vegetarian) and she was blown away too by the amazing freshness and great taste of the food.
For dessert we tried the warm sweet baklava, and beyond the shadow of any doubt it was the most amazing sweet we have tried in an Indian restaurant.
But our biggest surprise came when we received the bill. The food here is so well priced, that you leave the restaurant feeling that you have had a big bargain.
The restaurant itself is brand new, very clean and the toilets are kept in supreme condition.
As for the staff, they were all extremely friendly and polite, and very keen to help you and serve you.
I have given it 5 out of 5 stars, but it really deserves even more than that. This restaurant is superb from every point of view.
I used to be one the many people queuing up for its famous neighbour restaurant, but now I have been converted.
I simply loved Maza and I will definitely be going back again and again!
YOU SHOULD REALLY TRY IT TOO!!!
