Bites Nearby: Raj Mahal

If you have a taste for the spicy, check out Raj Mahal.

A lunch buffet is offered between 11:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., and for $7.99 it is a good introduction to the cuisine if  you've never tried Indian food before. You'll be able to sample a variety of what's on the menu.

The dinner menu features a variety of appetizers, soups, salads, chicken, seafood, vegetables, breads, desserts, beverages and rice dishes. A favorite is the chicken makhani, tender chicken cubes broiled in a tandoor with a blend of creamed tomato curry and exotic spices, for just $11.

Dinner is served from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. Sorry, no alcoholic beverages. You can reserve your table, order online, or just walk in. They offer dine-in coupons as well.

And for those younger diners who may not be ready for spicer fare, there is a children's menu that includes chicken fingers and french fries.

The restaurant is housed in a small building and features a front dining room and a smaller, more cozy room in the back.  Parking is free, but limited.

Hours: It opens at 11:30 a.m. on Tuesdays through Sunday and closes at 10 p.m. It's closed on Mondays.

Raj Mahal is situated at the corner of a strip mall at 2035 State Rd. in Cuyahoga Falls. 330-926-0795
