Raj Boy in Tower Hamlets

Got takeout; the food was below average. Being bangladeshi i know the dishes were supposed to taste better.

We greatly enjoyed a family meal, with many vegetarian options. The staff was efficient and very friendly. The choices on the menu, the freshness of the dishes and the excellent service will certainly bring us back!

Wonderful class restaurant next to line house station. Have been going here for years. Has recently been done up too. Food here is authentic and delicious. Full of flavour. Always my regular when I’m in the area. Great friendly staff too

Visited on a cold and wet Monday evening in February, so perhaps understandable that it was deserted. The food was nice although not exceptional but I wasn't impressed by the slightly too casually-dressed staff who were obviously bored. So ratings.... first impressions OK, atmosphere zero (wet Monday remember), food OK, service could be better. Will I go again? might give it another chance.

de bons plats de la cuisine indienne ,copieux et au gout très bon accueil gentil bon rapport qualité/prix

Ordered chicken sag and lamb bhuna with bhajis and rice! Quick delivery and tasty and hot when arrived! Always a good meal and great portions!

Prompt service, friendly staff and a tasty meal for a reasonable price. I'd definitely eat there again

We went to order and a take away and the food was not eatable at all. Onion Bhaji how can you get it so wrong and disgusting, We used to eat at this restaurant frequently but it has definitely gone downhill. Very disappointing even 1 star is too much.

Ordered a takeaway for one from Rajboy as one guest amongst a group we had over from dinner couldnt/wouldn’t eat home made Keema lamb. The starter consisted of 3 small bite sizes pieces of chicken and the main was plain wrong. I rang and complained, they explained the dish was not what would be normally ordered but as I pointed out to them,if they can’t make a speciality dish properly then don’t have it on the menu - stick to what you know and might be good at! No offer of a refund or alternative dish not that I asked for it.

I typically eat at Raj Boy about once or twice a month: why? Because it serves consistently excellent Asian food at great value for money prices. The meat Thali is superb for one person. Nice friendly staff. It’s not posh (actually it’s a bit scruffy), but the tables are always beautifully clean with nice crisp white linen. The Indian beer is good. And the food is excellent. Eat here. You will never be disappointed.

Indian restaurant really close to c2c Train Station and five minutes away from Canary Wharf via DLR. We went there on a Saturday night for dinner. Me and my associate had Tandoori Chicken as a starter, I had Chicken Dansak and Pilau Rice for main course with a large soft drink, my associate had Prawn Briyani and a Lemonade drink and we had Peshwari Nan Bread together. The food took a bit long to served maybe the fact it was a Saturday evening and they were receiving alot of orders for takeaway. I liked the food and so did the person I came with. The price was good and generally the food was nice.

Fantastic food and great portions. The restaurant decor is somewhat dated but this should not put anyone off the great taste and filling meals!

If they can't make an edible onion bhaji....gives a clue..... I just paid the bill and left without waiting for the main as I didnt want to be victim of chefs revenge, if I complained. There is a reason this place is empty on Friday night.

Tasty food at good prices - we often order a takeaway from the restaurant and it never disappoints! Probably my favourite curry house on Commercial road!

Our first visit. Staff were dismissive bordering on rude. Food was bland and barely edible. Customer service non existent.

Ordered the Lamb Tikka main course. With boiled rice. The food was fresh and tasty however the portions were small. The silver platter the had the boiled rice on was barely 1 layer thick and the Lamb was about 7 pieces. With a bottle of water came to £12.10, not expensive but not the best value either. Again food was tasty though and I enjoyed what I had.

My Husband, Son and I visited the Raj Boy this evening for dinner. The menu is very comprehensive and the food was delicious. The wine was very reasonably priced. Overall a lovely evening - thank you.

The food here is always tasty, the staff are friendly and somehow it's always empty - it seems unfair, but I suppose most of the locals eat enough curry at home! Well worth a visit if you're in the area.

Unfortunately this one is a low rating, as the lack of service & choice available were very poor. No greeting at the door, even though the restaurant was a third full. sat down drinks order taken & then food only to have the waiter return...

Un lugar muy agradable. La gente amable y la comida es muy buena (y lo principal creo que es muy barato comparado con otros restaurantes en los que estado para o que están recibiendo más por el precio similar). Nos ha sido poco prisa pero...

Absolutamente terrible servicio al cliente no sabe cómo hablar con la gente. El propietario es muy grosero bueno es absolutamente pésimas opinión personal cuando el dueño es un restaurante imbécil no puede resultar más bien. triángulo de cualquiera que visite este ominoso ubicación sumamente alojarse...

Fui con mis papás club de curry y me sorprendió gratamente. Nos ha clasificado en todo el restaurante indio hijo Isle of dogs de Wapping, y esta clasificado altamente, 5 * consejo higiene bien presagio . Teníamos un grupo de 12 y nos quedamos satisfechos con nuestra dos platos y a los lados. El Phall estaba adecuadamente caliente y satisfechos nuestros expertos de calor. El resto de las comidas eran buenas, sabroso y con especias/calor adecuada a su plato. Dos campos y dos cervezas por 20 libras cada uno, válida. Nos registramos el pub local: el antiguo barco" y volveremos mfg superior de facilidad

I visited Rajboy with my friends and was served by Nime who was outstanding, very helpful and attended to our every needs. I've been to a lot of Indian restaurants in london and although the food was good the service wasn't and fortunately here both were superb. I will definitely be visiting here again and recommend asking for Nime to be your waiter if you visit. This restaurant has 5 star rating for food and hygiene so I'am little uncertain about the previous review i think the person got confused with another restaurant.

I met some of my friends there about 10:30, ordered roasted popadums, several nan breads and curries, my wife saw a waiter handling a cold chapatti which was tested for temperature by another waiter before going back to the kitchens to be microwaved. The toilets in the place are disgusting. Suffice to say , 4 of our party have had diarrhoea , I personally have been on the toilet most of the day, punctuated with episodes of vomiting.Message for the restaurant:-Personal hygiene is not optional.

Most Indian restaurants in London city are owned and run by Bangladeshi migrants. While some are good, some would not give you such a nice experience, especially if you compare the taste to authentic Indian standards. Raj Boy is sort of an exception in this. I had opportunities to eat and take away from Raj Boy on number of occasions during my recent visit to London and I found their food as well as services very good. The hosts at Raj Boy ensure that they recommend you right dishes basis your preference, especially if you are from Indian sub-continent. They recommended me a number of dishes basis my preferences and they all turned out to be very close to the authentic Indian taste. It is easy on wallet too compared to many other Indian options in the city. Overall, a happy experience and I will be back again soon during my next visit. Cheers!

Good local curry house right near Limehouse DLR. The service was friendly and informed.I had the vegetable thali which was tasty. Naan light and fluffy.If we are back in the area, we would return if we wanted to got for a curry.

Used the restaurant as just round the corner from our hotel food was fantastic and trust me coming from Glasgow we know how to rate a curry! Service could have been better but the food was really tasty and worth giving this place a try doesn't look much but dont let that put you off.

This restaurant is fairly local for me and hence a favourite, the staff are friendly and the food is consistently good and excellent value especially on a Sunday evening when you get two courses including rice, bread and a side dish for £11.50. Try the Mongoose beer, not available in very many Indian restaurants and a great flavour.

I've eaten at Raj Boy many times - the food is decent and the prices are very reasonable. This visit, however, was probably my last. This was the third out of four recent visits where the service has been unnecessarily slow. The most recent time was on a relaxed Thursday evening with three others - we were certainly in no rush. The restaurant was at about 20 per cent capacity and the waiters seemed keen to get our orders in quickly. Fast forward 60 minutes, we had not received our food, and only upon querying with one of the waiters were we given a kind of back-handed apology: "we're understaffed in the kitchen today". Given my prior experiences, I was inclined to believe it was not just 'today'.When the food arrived, it was tasty and fulfilling as per usual - we all agreed it somewhat made up for the wait. But this was the final straw.Maybe I have just been unlucky. Perhaps the only three times Raj Boy has genuinely been understaffed happen to have fallen on a number of my recent visits. This is not the main reason why I won't be returning. My main gripe is that each time this has happened, the staff (who generally seem to be nice people) did not seem to be aware of the wait (the longest was 2 hours), and apologies were not forthcoming upon learning of our discontent.Nevertheless, for those who are in the area and have a few hours to kill, I would recommend either of the thalis (mixed dishes).

Working away and stumbled across this place , food and service was A1 cannot fault it , when the bill arrived we was both shocked it only came to £30 , well worth a visit, Sah is a great waiter

Love the food, excellent service, friendly staff, variety of dishes. Loved the starters, and the best biryani I've ever tasted. Recommend the chicken tikka biryani, daal, lamb chops, king prawn curry and sag aloo. So much to choose from, defo worth a visit!

Ordered from ere the first time a few weeks back. It's perfectly tolerable to get that "English curry" hit but it's certainly not authentic indian/Pakistani food.Delivered very quickly, might use this place again but if you've got one you know and like I wouldn't risk it on Raj Boy.

Attentive service. Wide range of main dishes and sides. Taste is ok, but costs are reasonable and ambiance is comfortable.

It was quiet, early on a Wednesday evening. The service was friendly and welcoming. The lime pickle that came with the popadoms was really nice. The chicken shashlick, dhal and chapati were all perfectly fine, tasty and came in ample portions.They seemed to have a roaring takeaway trade.I'd certainly go there again when in the area.I'm pretty suspicious about the two previous reviews.........

Food was disgusting. Never again. . Staff can hardly understand ur order.. I am surprised by the positive reviews. . It can never be compared to indian food though they name it.

If you want to try proper Indian food then ignore this place. The food was disgusting n very poor service. Never again..

Past the place regularly and one day decided to visit the restaurant = disappointment!Never again...Poor food qualityAs I have said I pass reguarly this place is always quiet which shoud've sent alarm bell in my head.

Considering the few eateries around the limehouse hotel, this is worth a visit I you are staying a few days and are keen for 'desi' indian khana (food). Service is amazingly slow. But the restaurant appears to thrive on home deliveries. Would not classify food as excellent- but definitely passable. This also depends on how long you have been away from India- and thereby your desperation. Overall not a bad place.

I passed the restaurant on my way to the DLR station and decided to "try my luck". What a great find.The restaurant was almost empty - which made me concerned - but I was hungry and passionate about Indian food. I had a superb meal, well presented, well cooked, just the right level of spice and flavours. Service was excellent, and the total was under 30 pounds.

Being a vegetarian, I especially liked the Veg Biriyani in the hotel. Its a decent restaurant to have dinner in case you need veg indian food options in the Limehouse area. Its conveniently located near the Limehouse DLR station.

Visiting my friend in this part of London, thought we would go out for a curry for a change. This restaurant without a doubt, is a breath of fresh air from the likes of Brick Lane or the myriad of cheap and cheerful curry and fried chicken shops that virtually saturate the East End.The menu in this restaurant is a very extensive selection of popular dishes and the chef's personal specialities.Skipped starters tonight although we shared some onion bhajis to go with the main course, of which I chose the Lamb Hariali, one of the chef selections which described as fairly hot with garlic, pepper, ginger, coriander and chillis. Very tangy, meaty and juicy, and very different. My friend's Mumbai Chicken was hot, sweet and sour with a good hint of citrus, so both full on flavoured and refreshing at the same time without being over poweringly hot. Onion Bhajis are good and a bargain at £2 for three freshly prepared. Onion kulcha naan bread was a tad on the dry side, all it needs is a little bit of spray or finished with a small dot of ghee.Vegetable pilau rice has a pungent spiced flavour with plenty of garlic, alongside onions, carrots and peas. Aubergine bhaji is cooked in a delightful mild nutty gravy balanced with tomato.Meal for two - with portions tending to be on the rather bigger side, with 2 beers and 2 glasses of red wine - just under £45. Hard to believe this is possible, as I have forked out more for a takeaway on the same sort of scale, but I think the portions here are bigger and the atmosphere superb. The staff are attentive and sociable and do everything at their disposal to see you enjoy yourself.If that is not enough to convince you to check it out - go on a Sunday where you can get any starter, main, vegetable, rice, naan and popadom (yes ALL of that) for £11.95, even if you want King Prawns it's only another £2.50.In this day and age of watching the pennies, it is worth travelling here hungry for a quality night out without fretting about breaking the bank. I am going back soon for that Sunday special and so should you.

Me and my partner just moved in this area lime house. Rajboy was the third indian restaurant we walked in this month. Anyway....Food was amazing, it was designed and cooked just perfectly. The price was reasonable. The service was brilliant. The waiters were so polite and respectful especially a guy called salim. He made us feel really at home. Will be back for sure and will recommend others to try. Thanks Rajboy.

I had read about another restaurant on TripAdvisor but when we got there, the building looked like it had been derelect for quite a time. Notifced Rajboy on the walk back to the hotel. It was very quiet for a Friday evening (approx 9 pm), The menu had a good range. Although I didn't like the course I chose, I couldn't fault the quality of the food. My partner really enjoyed it, as did I, his choice. The prices were very very reasonable indeed, the service excellent.

It was a brilliant stay there. Delicious food, good advices in this regard, a broad variety of wines, professional service and a more than excellent price menue quality relation.

I ate at Raj Boy this week with my family, spanning ages 7 to 75. Everyone agreed that or an informal, and relatively inexpensive family meal, it was perfect. Since they do most of their business as deliveries, the restaurant itself is generally quiet, the waiters are friendly and the service is relaxed. The decor is basic, but the food is great.As a starter I recommend the chingri puri - it is delicious, the prawns are fairly spicy and go so well with the pancake style bread.We ordered a selection of main courses, vegetable side dishes, rice and a variety of different breads for everyone to share - for those who like their curry mild the Chicken Kashmir made a pleasant change from the usual chicken korma. It's sauce was creamy and packed with fruit such as lychees. The machli jhul (medium hot fish curry) was also very good.Bill for 5 people including beers and popadums was just over £60. Great value.

Popped in with a group of four, not very experienced in Indian cuisine. Our waiters were helpful in coaching us, and we had an enjoyable meal. The food was hot and delicious, as well as being plentiful. Not used to having to pay a la carte for rice accompaniments, but not a deal-breaker.

decided to give this restuarant a second chance as the first experience was very poor. However it was true to form and did not exceed my expectations of being really dire and poor. So many more great restuarants in this area and wished I had gone to them. The food was bland, runny and poor quality. I have been to india over 20 times and know my curries and this was not one of them.

Overpriced, average to poor quality foodStaff seem to be full of themselvesAlways empty - good reasons!!

The place is always empty, which should send you a warning.There are a lot of curry houses around this area, I have to say that this is with out doubt the wost one I have ever eaten in.

Rajboy is a really great place to have as your local curry house. It is located on Commercial Rd near Limehouse DLR about half way between the City and Canary Wharf. Because of its rather "out of the way location" Rajboy doesn't suffer from the crowds of city-types demanding shiny decor, over the top presentation, expensive wines and inflated prices. Quite the opposite, Rajboy is an unpretentious, relaxing place, where you dont need a reservation, and the staff take time to chat and get to know you. They make you feel genuinely welcome. With its friendly service, good honest food and affordable prices it is one of my favourite places to go for dinner after a long, tiring day. You know those evenings when you just can't face cooking dinner and wish your meal would magically appear? Rajboy works that magic brilliantly!Prices for eating in the restaurant aren't much higher than takeout prices, and I definitely prefer to eat-in. I have no idea why this is, but the food served in the restaurant tastes better to me than when I order the same dish as a takeaway. Plus there is the added bonus that someone else does the clearing up!I can recommend most of the menu. My particular favourites are the Chingri Puri starter, the King Prawn Pathia, the Vegetable Dhansak, the Chicken Hariali, the Mumbai (with citrus fruit), and the Lau (with pumpkin/squash).Also I would recommend Rajboy to anyone staying at the Holiday Inn Express just around the corner. If you are travelling alone, Rajboy is the kind of place you can feel comfortable taking a book or newspaper, or just chatting with the staff.

Hunted for a decent looking Indian on way back to our lodgings, couldn't find one so we gave Rajboy a go, not the best name.We went for the Sunday special, great value, food was really tasty, portions were good, service was quick and there was some good banter.I would come back, as we both enjoyed the food.

we just orders a chicken tikka pathia, nan, plain rice, and a spinach and cheese side dish.after 1 hour - they said 30 to 40 mins, we received our £15 order.1. food was cold2. the chicken tikka pathia container was 1/2 empty - had no taste, no salt, was not spicy and looked like yesterdays leftover3. the spinach and cheese side dish - was equally as yukwe binned both and ate cheddar with the nan bread.I rang and complained - they we're very polite and offered to deliver another 'batch'... but.. really couldn't trust what comes out of their kitchen again.DONT BOTHER UNLESS U WANT TO WASTE MONEY AND TIME

Okay. Food was passable, but not excellent. Service okay, but again, not staggering. Atmosphere a bit bland and boring. Wouldn't return.

What a lovely surprise; we popped in at random in late October on a late weekend night. The food was amazing. We were coddled, cared for, and catered to. The service, if possible, was better than the food. Unfortunately, we live three hours away, but every time we are in London, Rajboy will be a certain stop.
