Came here for a birthday celebration, packed to the rafters. Food was good drinks were reasonable and also got a birthday shot and an ice cream on the house. Would have been a 5 star but the made a mistake on the bill with a bottle of wine charged twice. Simple mistake which the rectified after a phone call. All in all great place to visit.

We decided to head out for a walk and some food in the Chester Moor area. As we walked past La Raaj the inviting smells pulled us in. We were warmly greeted by the manager and quickly seated at a lovely window table. Considering it was a cold Thursday night the restaurant was vibrant and had a great atmosphere. Service, food, quality, value and overall experience was exceptional. Highly recommended and we will be back soon!

Always been a fan of this place. Understand prices have increased but its very high now. The quality seemed to go down in reflection. Would i eat here again? Probably not unfortunately for the price you pay. Then menu is really weird now too. 3 people on the table couldn't understand it.. price is a line at the bottom that you have to work out. Anyway.. it was average overall. Hope you read customer remarks and take action..

We had a nice meal, staff were very pleasant. But the Service was very slow, 2 hours for starter and main, And I thought £95 for 2 people was a bit pricey. £7 a pint.

Extortion at the highest level. 1 chicken curry, 1 x prawn curry, 1 x mata paneer, 1 x rice., 1 onion barji an 2 plain nans. 4 x Small diet cokes. Price £94 absolute rip off for a average meal. Portion size ridiculously small. Once bitten as the saying goes. Buyer beware

Over-booked. Long wait to be seated. Mediocre food and POOR ATTITUDE to people with allergies. Menu is marked up for allergies -but beware it is not comprehensive. I ordered a Tandori Thali which was marked up for seafood but not for nuts. I specifically asked the waiter if the dish contained nuts and was told 'No". When the dish arrived I could plainly see slivers of almond as a garnish ! I have a profound nut allergy. Also the meal was over priced with slapdash un itemised billing.

Went to Le Raaj and honestly hands down the best Indian I've ever had! The staff were fantastic and answered questions i had about which curry to choose from and what they were like and suggested what naan bread to go with it, the chicken tikka massala was great and the chicken tikka nawabi i had was the best curry I've tasted so thank you to the waiter who recommended it. All in all great prices, great serving sizes, quality customer service and a great experience we even considered coming back a second night it was that good! Will definitely be coming again

We visited two years ago and had a great time. We wanted to return and this time it was sadly really disappointing. Not sure we will go back. The food is still great, but the service was very poor and made us feel unwelcome especially for such an expensive meal (nearly £200 for 5 people without starters) Bare in mind we did attend at a very busy time of the year and we didn't ever complain during the night. It still doesn't excuse the fact that it was pre booked where any restaurant should be able to manage its intake and know their working capacity. Clearly felt like they had taken on more than they could handle. We had pre booked a table and the table wasn't even set when we were guided to it. After waiting 30 minutes they didn't even realise we had a table without plates or forks nor had been asked for drinks. They then gave us what seemed to be free poppadoms without any plates. They were literally setting up tables around us and I kept politely trying to ask for some plates and cutlery and got a sharp reply from one of the staff. Why would you prioritise setting up other tables when people already sat down haven't even been set up correctly without plates or cutlery even more so now they have been served some food ? The staff member we had was very slow and someone else stepped in to sort it out. The lights cut out at one point as the staff was changing with the lights so was starting to become an unwelcome atmosphere especially surrounded by either tables getting set up or people sat down enjoying their meals. First impressions matter and within 30 minutes I was contemplating leaving. The menu is very poorly laid out - the prices are summarised in very small writing at the bottom of each page of a section and can be confusing to understand between starters and mains what costs what. It felt somewhat tactical. We were waiting a long time between finishing starters and mains to be served, to get our order to actually getting food. The food when it eventually arrived was great! Full of flavour,and we were all very impressed. However, you would expect more quantity for the price. When it came to paying, we had to get up and ask for it at reception as no one even realised we were wanting the bill and no one was coming to check on us after taking our plates which had already taken a long time. What really frustrates me here is that anywhere you normally go, the breakdown of the bill is clear and concise either through a machine so you know line by line what you have ordered - even indian restaurants. Here, having someone tap it out on a calculator , write in illegible words on a note pad and tell me the drinks = £39.00 without any breakdown of what that was is really unclear and misleading. The staff looking too busy to even challenge it-You go away thinking what exactly have I paid for especially with it being so steep? Not just the case for the drinks but even the breakdown of food - is the price legit or are they inflating it with service or hidden costs I don't know about especially with such an unclear menu for prices. It not right and loses a lot of trust for me with the restaurant. Note we never complained throughout the night and the restaurant kindly offered us a drink on the house as we left , but again , because of the reasons above you never really sure if its on the house or just part of the inflation on my bill I've just paid, same applies to the poppadoms we didn't order that were placed on the table so I couldn't really appreciate it - were the free? I have no idea but for nearly £200 without starters it didn't feel like it. Foods great - service and atmosphere less so - not sure we will go back , maybe best for a takeaway?

My husband and I went for a meal a couple of nights ago. We’ve been a few times before and it was expensive then considering (apart from the drinks) it’s pretty much the same food we’d get from our takeaway locally which would be half the cost. We decided to go for my husbands birthday and this time the cost was extortionate!! We both had starters (I had breadcrumbed king prawns - I only got two on the plate and that was £14.95!) my husband had kebab starter, we had mushroom pilau rice x2, korma, madras, garlic nan x1, Irish coffee, x2 lagers and x1 large coke = £99!!! They had new looking menus since last time we’d been and we couldn’t see any prices….until we spotted them written along the very bottom of each page; the words were only a few millimetres high, it was ridiculous. The food is nice but definitely not worth the prices they charge and we certainly didn’t eat food to that value. We were stunned at the bill and we both said we won’t go back. Yes prices have increased everywhere but not to that extent. Felt totally robbed.

Went out for an anniversary meal. Very disappointed. £72 for a lunch meal is very over priced. My partner had a coke and ordered off the lunch time special menu £14.95 (used to be £8.95 not so long ago plus you got coffee or ice cream, not anymore) I ordered a pint of lager priced at £7. My starter of lamb 2 ways was very disappointing. Hardly any meat and priced at £9.95. My curry was ok. Nice and spicy but when I got the bill I was very disappointed. £72 for a lunch that I wasn’t even that full. We queried the bill and we’re very shocked at the prices( no prices on the menu for some reason???) We both agreed that we would never return there again

Recent visit for myself and husband. Very busy carpark and inside. Restaurant was bouncing and so was the Ibiza dance music. Far too loud for conversation, although they did turn it down when asked, noted a previous review mentioned this also. New menu this week - all singing all dancing font/book - however NO PRICES showing.!! We were naive enough to think things had not changed much since last visit and did not think to ask - also seems embarrassing to ask, as if you cannot afford to be there! We ordered very similar items to previous visits and therefore asked about the onion bhaji starter which used to consist of two substantial round bhajis- We always share this as is too much for one person/ husband on his own. Now a double decker but no substance and very dry and crispy, more like onion crisps. Disintegrates upon putting a knife to it. Not great - required all of the surrounding sauce and raita to eat it/ hold it together. Mains were very nice, not a huge quantity of chicken in mine but certainly adequate for myself. Shared a lovely pillowy plain naan and also a rice between us. Had poppodoms with pickles to start. Cost over £70 pounds for food which was not itemised on bill and husband embarrasingly had to go and ask about prices at till rather than have to ask staff at the table. The couple next to us looked like they had also been through the same process as front of house manager at their table also. Front of house manager tried to explain to husband prices had increased due to cost of living - no problem with this at all but just make it TRANSPARENT. Cost not a problem, hidden prices were! Such a shame as they try very hard to please, just feel they are not doing themselves any favours. Won't be back - M & S curry ready meal or local takeaway for us!

The staff were absolutely lovely. Very hard working, efficient and polite. However, the menu is ridiculously long. Do we really need so much choice? We were both completely overwhelmed by the choices. I think it’d be much better if reduced. Next, only one white wine by the glass. What is it please? Dry white. I think nowadays people are more discerning re wine and want to choose which wine to drink. Even a choice of 3 whites would be good. Then the food. Prawn curry was very bright red but didn’t really have that much taste. Lentil Dahl again, very bland. Rice and naan bread were good. The lamb was very tough, dry and stringy. We’d specifically asked if it was slow cooked in the sauce and thus tender. Answer was yes but it really was not tender and again, despite the bright green sauce and the fancy decoration, had very little taste. We usually travel to Dosa Kitchen in Newcastle which is authentic and absolutely delicious and I’m afraid we’ll be going back there. Oh and the Ibiza chill out music was very loud and annoying. Call me old fashioned but I love to hear some nice soft Indian music in a restaurant ;)

We came here as a birthday treat for my mother. The restaurant was very busy but the staff were always available. The food arrived very promptly, yet we never felt rushed. And each of us had a delicious meal. Towards the end of the meal my wife let it be known that it was mother's birthday. The next we knew the lights were dimmed and Happy Birthday was playing over the sound system. My mum received an ice cream with a sparkler in it - she was embarrassed but very pleased. The staff were excellent and we had a most enjoyable evening.

First and last time for us. In our opinion it is extremely overpriced and too pretentious. We went for lunch on a Sunday ordered a PINT of Cobra and a glass of red wine. The drinks came and no way was that a pint and my wife's wine looked and tasted watered down. We firstly ordered two poppadoms and pickles which were slightly soft and very small portions of pickles. We the ordered a Chicken tikka Shashlik, a Lamb saag, veg pilau, garlic naan and a side of saag paneer all of which came very quickly. My saag was ok but my wife's shashlik was basically chicken tikka with some onions and peppers not like we've had any where else no Shashlik taste. So the two dinks alone was over £15 and the whole bill just shy of £60. We feel there's much better tasting and better value Indians not too far away so will be using them from now on.

We went for my dad's 60th and had a faultless experience. Staff were incredibly attententive. I had a peanut allergy and they made me feel at ease. To top it off Masum's personal touches in his waiting was incredible. Thank you!

Lovely lunch set menu, portions sensible size for the price. But the wine! £8 each for a SMALL house glass! So £24 for 3 glasses, virtually the same price as a full bottle! Really lets the place down. Shame

Went with friends for a meal here and the food didn’t disappoint. The mixed starter we had was fabulous the onions and peppers made it, rice and naans were good and the jalfrezi was excellent. Service

Great food, but poor service and atmosphere. Long wait despite booking a table. One of our starters was forgotten about and we had to ask multiple times for the bill. Whole restaurant feels too crampe

As a group of lads we do the bottomless brunch here a few times a year, always great service and the best cocktails for miles. Got well looked after by the lads a couple of weeks ago and will be back
