Maja Indian Cuisine

What is Maja Indian Cuisine? Tucked inside the commercial complex at 345 Bloor Street East in North St. James Town, Maja Indian Cuisine is a no-frills, woman-owned counter shop dedicated to unpretentious homestyle cooking. The space is compact and utilitarian, featuring simple dine-in tables, bright lighting, and a steady stream of takeout regulars picking up daily tiffin orders. It functions primarily as a comforting, fast-casual neighborhood hub where flavour and value take precedence over fussy decor.

Maja Indian Cuisine Menu & What to Order The lineup centres around robust North Indian curries, daily thali platters, and street-food favourites. First-timers should opt for the Maja Special Thali—a complete steel-tray feast piled with house dal, fluffy rice, your choice of curries, and blistered tandoori naan made on the spot. The sweet-and-tangy Eggplant Delight stands out for vegetable lovers, while the rich butter chicken, spiced mutton masala, and steamed chicken momos offer hearty comfort. Wash it all down with a chilled mango lassi or a piping cup of spiced chai.

Know Before You Go Seating is strictly walk-in with zero need for reservations, though the counter gets lively around weekday lunch and early evening dinner rushes. The restaurant sits just steps east of Sherbourne subway station, making transit your best bet over limited street parking on Bloor. Maja is open Monday through Friday from 10:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., and Saturday through Sunday from 12:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
