Had an absolutely amazing experience at Papaj’s! The food was fantastic, with an incredible variety of choices. For starters, we ordered Chicken 65 and Veg Manchurian—both were bursting with flavour and perfectly cooked. For the main course, we went with Rajasthani Laal Maas, mutton, and pulao rice, and it was absolutely spot on! The flavors were rich, authentic, and packed with aromatic spices that truly elevated the experience. What made the evening even more special was the outstanding hospitality. I had called the restaurant a day in advance to ask about a cake for my friend's birthday, and the staff went above and beyond to surprise us with a delicious cake. It was such a thoughtful touch that made the celebration even more memorable. Overall, the combination of exceptional food, warm hospitality, and a great ambiance made this a truly wonderful experience. Highly recommended!

Outstanding Experience at PapaJ’s ! I recently had the pleasure of dining there, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we walked in, the warm ambiance and inviting aroma of Indian spices set the stage for a delightful meal. The service was impeccable—attentive yet not intrusive. Our server took the time to explain the menu and even made excellent recommendations based on our preferences. Now, onto the food! Every dish was a masterpiece. The butter chicken was rich and creamy, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice. The biryani was aromatic, with each grain of rice infused with flavor. The garlic naan was soft, fluffy, and paired wonderfully with the curries. To top it off, the mango lassi was refreshing and a perfect way to cool down the spice. The attention to detail in both presentation and taste was impressive. You can tell that the chefs put passion into every dish. The portion sizes were generous, and the pricing was very reasonable for the quality of food served. If you're looking for an authentic Indian dining experience with fantastic flavors and top-notch service, Papaj’s is the place to be. I will definitely be returning soon! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5) Highly recommended!

Had an interesting concept meal with a medium platter it was very tasty but a little too much of confusing flavours in that many of the dishes tasted somewhat similar but of particular note was the sweet sticky chicken curry … service was good if a little rushed and the atmosphere could have been better however in fairness it was early on a Wednesday evening and the place only had six diners.

Nice flavours but the salt content was on the high side to enhance the taste. Service was good but let down by not informing us that the kitchen was about to close so didn't get to order deserts. The wine choice is very limited and below average. King Platter has a good selection of starters. In it the Lamb Chops were most disappointing lacking flavour and very chewy. Crispy fried prawns and Amritsari fish were the best. The rest were average meaning nothing to be wowed by. Chicken Mongolian sounds interesting, looks different but I couldn't really taste the peanut nor the fenugreek. Yet for some reason it was enjoyable. Veg manchuria was tasty. It lacked the slight crispiness and the crunch from the out layer that one would expect. Chicken chettinadu was trying hard to be an authentic south Indian dish by adding few curry leaves. But overall was a bit salty and not authentic enough and didn't really have the green chilli heat. Also the pieces of green chillies in it had no punch. Chicken biryani was nice in that it was aromatic from the caramelised onions with the right balance of flavours except it lacked the saffron aroma and flavour. Dal bulhara was good with right consistency. Chicken 65 was not authentic. Not crispy from the outside. But still with plenty of flavour and a bit salty and soggy.

Thoroughly impressed with the dining experience at Papa J’s in Luton! Lamb chops were juicy, succulent & cooked to perfection. Kudos to Chef Shivam for preparing them so well. This dish is a gastronomic delight. We also tried the Tandoori Chicken which was equally delicious and as authentic as the Tandoori found at some of the best restaurants in North India. Special thanks to our server Manav who was friendly, polite and kind enough to allow us in during the fading hours. Looking forward to our next visit !

The food was alright especially the Veg Manchurian bursting with flavor and cooked well.I believe it's not the same taste that used to be before months think the management or chef changed. They're using sweet corn in Veg kadai which felt like the cheap mixed veggies bag from Lidl and the Fried Okra is shrunk I mean there's more flour than the ladiesfinger. A big shoutout to Natalia for her warm hospitality and made sure everything's right atleast. But there was another girl who I asked for the bill and when paying she made us uncomfortable pushing us to tip more that was really annoying I tipped already and said that's it and again she's keep on asking my friend so you wanna tip I mean wtf was that.
