The staff were very accommodating. I asked for a recommendation off the menu based on my preferences and the chef actually prepared a special dish for me - which was absolutely delicious! The portion sizes are generous, food freshly prepared and extremely tasty. Definitely worth a visit.

Good service. Food was not the best. Rice looked and tasted like microwave packet rice,, curry lacked depth of flavour and was too greasy. Possibly the worst I’ve had

Arrived around half 9 for a table for 2. Don't be put off by the 3.9 stars, because the food and the service was great! My partner and I got the lamb tikka and mixed tandoori for starter, Shilla with chicken, mushroom rice and garlic naan for main. Plenty of food for both of us. It was quiet when we arrived and the music could've been better (lol) but the food was authentic. I will always say, there's no point in going to a curry house if you're not gonna order the chef's specials.

This was a second visit to Penrith this year and a return to Raj. This time after asking about various food options the owner asked if he could make us a specific dish each based on our original choices/request. The result was a fantastic, tasty meal. He took time afterwards to chat to us about the origin of the ingredients he had used. Highly recommend a visit.

Visiting Penrith for the weekend with my partner. We found Raj restaurant online and decided to book. The food and service was excellent. We could not decide what to have and the waiter asked us what we liked and made his own meal for us. It was beautiful and had everything we had asked for. Had a mixed starter for two which was outstanding and a chutney tray which was like any standard restaurant. I drank wine and it was good. Beers are available, plus other drinks. If we stay in Penrith again we will be back!

Final dinner on our vacation. My father ordered off-menu without even realizing it, and the staff invented a dish on the spot so he could get the dish he wanted. They brought us a sauce sampler tray before dinner, along with a special little appetizer with a kind message written on the plate in sauce. The food was fantastic, and to top it off, not nearly as expensive as we would have guessed. The staff made us feel very welcome. I don’t usually leave reviews online but the food and service was so great I wanted to share.

An interesting range of dishes available as well as the “favourites”. The food was good and the staff friendly, but service was slow. Perhaps they had a shortage of staff that night. Each course took some time to arrive and we waited 20 minutes after asking for the bill. A cheerful young waiter came twice to tell us the bill was just coming. But in the end we simply went up to the bar and paid which perhaps we should have done earlier. However, overall we enjoyed the evening.

We went to have a big meal with family we've not seen for ages. But my young daughter was very poorly so we had to leave before the mains came out. We agreed we'd pack ours away to take with us and while we was waiting our waiter (the fella from Loughborough) got her some ice-cream to make her feel better, which was really nice of them. The service was great the food is great and they take good care of you. Can't rate the place enough. We'll definitely be back. Hopefully with a less poorly child

They offered to serve a customise chicken curry as we were looking for a mildly spicy desi chicken curry but we didn't like the taste. Had to leave a lot of food wasted.

We only ordered some sides for takeaway, so I can't comment on the curries. But the sides weren't very nice at all. The Chicken Pakora were very thin fillets coated with panko breadcrumbs with absolutely no spices or seasoning at all. Completely bizarre and I've never had a pakora like that before. Onion bhajis were quite soggy and not very flavourful. Poppadoms were nice though.

We've been very spoilt with curries having lived in Bradford to 10 years. Raj is good but very different to the Pakistani style of curry. We get the Chutney (similar to a proper mahkani) and the Chilli Garlic Balti - these are great choices. Naan bread is disappointing, they're small but very thick making then quite doughy. £2.50 per chapatti is joke which really annoys me as I adore chappati with my curry. A very good Indian Curry and incredibly reasonably priced
