Raj Mahal in Huntingdonshire

A party of eight of us had booked for the Sunday evening buffet, upon arrival we were offered a free drink as part of the 12 days of Christmas promotion and asked to order poppodums they arrived quickly and eventually after a wait of around 20 minutes the drinks arrived. After a further long wait we were served starters which ranged from onion bahji’s sish kebabs and samosa’s the sish kebabs were like rubber and all starters were highly spiced. After a further wait of around 30minutes we were eventually asked to choose our main course from the buffet, which again apart from an insipid chicken korma was again highly spiced and for those in our party not liking highly spiced food offered little choice also the rice had obviously been left out for some time due to the hardened state of it. After we had all sat down with our main course we were then asked which nan breads we would like only after a member of our party had prompted the staff. A second round of drinks were ordered but arrived about 30 minutes after ordering!! The problem seemed to be there was a large party upstairs who were being afforded far more preferential treatment than we were being afforded they were obviously either friends or part of the owners family. The waitress who was trying to attend to us had obviously been briefed to attend to those upstairs first, and this lack of attentiveness coupled with the poor selection of food on offer particularly to those with a lower tolerance for high spiced food and lack of atmosphere made for a very disappointing experience Will any of us return? the overwhelming consensus of opinion was a resounding no.

A late sunday visit to the Raj Mahal for four . Sizzling starters selection was very good and varied, then self service to the buffet which had a good selection of favourites, all seemed fresh and aromatic. The management here can't do enough for you, and the new owners are certainly making sure everyone has a great experience. Our waitress Souzie was a star, we felt we were the only guests here! Highly recommended!

This place hasn’t changed. Dropped in at 6:30 for dinner, place was half empty. It’s 8:30 and food still hasn’t arrived. They’ve offered free drinks to several tables because of the delay. Funny thing is, takeaways coming out of the kitchen. Don’t waste your time, plenty of other Indians in the area will be happy to take your order !

Owned by new owners, this place could be a hidden gem. The food was delicious and the menu varied with plenty of choice. The service was second to none, our waiter was super friendly, helpful with the food choices and happy to chat with us. The decor is simple and elegant. They also offer a takeaway service and at the moment discounts on Tuesdays and Thursdays along with a buffet on Sundays. Luckily for us this is local and we could walk and enjoy sensibly priced wine - we will definitely be back!

went to rajmahal with few friends the food is very nice and staff is very friendly the manager look after our self very well .

From start to finish we had a fabulous experience. We started with popadums and they were crisp with delicious dips. I had shashlik and it was extremely tasty, hot and succulent. The staff and service was exceptional. We were served by one of the twins, who was attentive and a very good waiter. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. The wine was good yet not scarily expensive. We had a lovely evening and would highly recommend you give this newly refurbished restaurant a go-just a wonderful experience.

My friend and I were regular visitors to the Sunday buffet of the former restaurant on this site until it and its owner were dishonourably discharged for rank stupidity. We were passing through Yaxley and saw that the restaurant had reopened under a different name, so decided to try the Sunday buffet, advertised outside. Greeted warmly by the new owners, a father and son double act (thankfully, no relation to the previous occupiers!) we were very impressed by the new, uncluttered decor and the immediate attention of the serving staff. The Sikh owners were happy to discuss their new vision for the restaurant and its menu, and their plans to transform it from its "black sheep" reputation in Yaxley, to a welcoming family restaurant with 5* quality all round. We took our seats and ordered drinks, to then be surprised by the arrival of a sizzling platter of hot starters at the table. Included in the buffet price, this served-at-the-table selection was freshly cooked (yes, NOT lying around in a heated tray for hours to go dry or soggy!) and perfectly spiced. The buffet choices to follow consisted of a number of classic Indian dishes with a selection of two rice accompaniments, and with naan and paratha freshly cooked on request. The food was delicious, slightly more spiced than we were used to, but balanced, flavoursome and definitely a top-notch new standard. Seconds and thirds, no problem...! Neither of us are disposed to eat dessert, so no comment can be offered there. Passing on our compliments via the waiter, the owners came out to thank us for our positive comments and looked forward to meeting us again on a future Sunday. Both of us agreed that we would, once again, be regulars. We were impressed with the new owners, their food, and their service and wish them well in making the Raj Mahal a place-to-go in the area.

So it was time to give The Raj Mahal a visit. We had a fabulous feast of delicious food from the main menu which is now uo and running. Starters of poppadoms, yum, followed by mains of chicken shashlik, prawn curry chicken pasanda, rice, Bombay potatoes and naan breads. So pleased we gave the starter a miss as there wouldn't have room for mains! Service overall very good. It's early days for the Raj Mahal with some very helpful and friendly staff on hand. Go have a meal yourself, meet the new owners and enjoy a lovely night out in Yaxley. Thank you Raj Mahal we'll be back soon. 🥂

Food was stunning. The flavours were fantastic. Would highly recommend this restaurant. The price of the meal was very reasonable.

pakora the best in the ayrshire

Food was good apart from the salad side of things. Onion and thick sliced cabbage isn’t salad

ordered at 8pm & food didn't arrive until 10pm on a Tuesday night, was hung up on after phoning for the 3rd time to ask where it was.

Taj mahal has really stepped up there donnor meat game over the last few weeks don't change it

So glad order was early as we were starving. Vegetable pakora was a good sized portion as was main course of chicken tikka. Cooked to perfection and tender. Can definitely recommend and will use this takeaway again.

Its always a worry when ordering from a new place for the 1st time. The Taj came recommend and I have to say it didn't disappoint! Food was hot, plenty of it and the flavours were amazing! Very happy and will certainly be ordering again.....cheers

Tasty kebab, just wished I had more of it 😂

1 item was correct the rest was completely wrong 😤

Disapointed in last nights food order wasnt the warmest and my burger was over cooked

Pizza simply wasn't cooked and not what I ordered. Cold when delivered late anaw. Waste of money

food was good but a little disappointed with pizza, one side was a bit over cooked

chicken. chasni was delicious with the rice and sweet nan also was a good sized portion and the chicken pakora was also very delicious... best takeaway I've had in a long time x

Great quality very fast delivery

Can't fault the food or the service.

Very late. Had to call the restaurant. Marked as delivered before it was. Poor communication.

not to the usual high standard

For good customer services and to keep customer when delivery is late is to do something about it discount or something alittle bit extra. 2 hours i had to wait for my food . And only warm not hot!!! Understandable if drivers car had broke down but nothing was done as an apology just full price nothing to say sorry its late!!!! Not how to run a business. Wont return back !!!

excellent pizzas by far the best and fast delivery time

Would highly recommend this restaurant good food really hot when it arrives , always tastes good

love this takeaway order time and time again, great food excellent service 👌🏻

I've not had a kitchen for 7 months due to flooding. this place has pretty much cooked me dinner every night lol. I've worked my way through most of the menu and the food has always been excellent and delivered very quickly. highly recommend.

Fantastic delivered with 20 min of ordering absolutely delicious

Always order from Taj Mahal the best food about and very fast delivery time will definitely keep ordering from here

Found our favourite takeaway! Food is always first class and always on time! Defo recommend.

Very good delivery and food quality even delivered after 10

Have ordered from taj many times. The food was fresh and was delivered very warm as always

My only problem was not sure what was the normal spicy sauce that comes with kebab. Other than that. It was lovely .

Ordered 2 CHEESE BURGERS and the idiots only gave us normal burgers I would like them to explain this now. They are getting really bad for not looking at orders right

Delivery driver didnt bring juice that he left in car

Congratulations! First time we have eaten from here and we have no complaints at all! I had all but given up hope in finding such a tasty curry! Best place we have ordered from and I can sure you we will make it a regular thing! Thank you!

Regularly order from here, good food, fast delivery even though I live in the sticks!

I've always ordered from taj mahal. Staff are friendly and food great

Fantastic and delivered well before time given

Fantastic. Arrived earlier. Was very warm. Would order again.

It was alright, nothing special and I've had better in the area.

Unfortunately food arrived over 1hr and half after ordering, tasted good enough but not very hot . Called after over 1hr waiting told on its way arrived around 30 mins later, seems they must have forgot to give to delivery driver. I won't be ordering again as previous orders have been wrong and thought would give one more chance, but not again .

First time using this place. Really impressed with quality of food and fast delivery. Will definitely use again. Recommended.

korma was a little bland compared to others i have had

Very happy. Very generous portion of tandoori chicken.

Excellent as usual. Only gave 4 star for food quality as I felt it could have been a bit warmer. Had to put chicken into microwave

No chips delivered although ordered

As always very enjoyable. We don't use anyone else now.

So yeah, me and the boyfriend both ordered some chips cheese and Donner along with a kebab and ever since we've ate that we've been farting like a trooper. Think he's shat his self about 4 times.

Good timely food. Hit the spot.

Excellent. Delivery time was 40 mins after I ordered. I actually received after 20 mins. Great service. Great food!

Really impressed so far with this take away and the quality of the food. Quick delivery. Piping hot food. Would recommend.

Very good meal cooked to perfection

Good good and fast delivery and good customer service

Food was cold, felt it was made too long before requested collection time, had to reheat

Always lovely, good portions and always great service.

1st class food. Delivered before the time and piping hot absolutely delicious and very pleasant driver. Would highly recommend

Absolutely delicious best take away in the area

Last time I checked a cheese burger had CHEESE on it the cheese burgers I got tonight had a small bit of cheese it was just noticeable

Fab tonight. Ordered delivered about 30 minutes before allotted time. Brilliant

Clearly didn't look at notes on bottom of order this isn't the first time this has happened and they blame someone else

Delicious. Best I have ever tasted. Thanks.

Would order again although food was a bit cold

Cold, looked like rubber and tasted disgusting won't be ordering again

Would give 5/5 never had any problems with taj Mahal always fresh food and delivered on time

Delivery was 20 mins early but the pizza and garlic bread were cold which was weird as it was delivered early . A free pizza should cover that

5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 everytime fast delivery friendly service fantastic food every time 👍

Delivered within the time, hot n tasted good

Driver was sitting in his car outside my house for 15mins before coming to my door.

Not happy I told you I wanted my order by 8 you sent me the confirmation saying I will receive it by 8,10 and I received it at 6,50 my daughter wasnt even home I.had to reheat and I hated doing it the whe point was we ate doing the floor in the.kitchen and i didnt wanted to enter so.i.had to.enter in the kitchen to.warm up the food and I hate reheated food Not sure how the food quality would have being if I had received it in time

Delivered with in time, hot and tasted great

Chicken was burnt and did not taste fresh, in fact chicken was spongy and didn't even taste like chicken anymore. Taste disguised with spice. Will not be ordering again. Sorry improve your services if you want to keep customers.

Chicken chaat was a bit under done . The mixed kabab calzone was amazing!!!! Don't be put off I'm a chef these things happen.

Great food and service as always

waited two hours for a pizza meal, then tried to say i didnt order it. will be very hesitant about ordering from them again and very argumentative on phone normally great service from therm but not a very happy customer tonight. need to improve their customer service as well..

Great service fantastic food, friendly, highly recommend, I would go anywhere else 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👍

Always order from them best in the west of Scotland .

The best I have ever tasted. The chilli sauce was awesome.

Pakora sauce curdled, disgusting!!

Excellent as usual with a really speedy delivery

Great food and great service as always.

Lovely as always. And was 20 minutes earlier than stated time. Highly recommended

Fantastic delivery service and meal. Quicker than expected, food was hot and tasty. Excellent! Will definitely be visiting again.

First class tonight. The accompanying special salad was amazing

The driver tried to take payment of £20 even though I paid for it buy card really bad service that the delivery driver is trying to con customers

I actually cant believe what I received and believe what they tryed to convince me it was on the phone. Bought a spicy mince pizza ..... It was not spicy at all and got told on phone you have to ask for it to be spicy ... Ehh I did when I ordered a spicy mince pizza... No no you have to ask for it to be extra spicy to taste it....aww wit. Now for the good part. I got square mince...yes square mince. I have never seen square mince before.. it was really diced Donna meat btw....told me on phone that is there mince....I said have you ever bought or seen mince before?? It's Donna meat I said but no no that is mince....it was diced cold meat you can buy from super market lol I normally buy from them all the time but because they tried to convince me it was something it definitely wasn't I can honestly say I won't buy from them again. Food is good but just don't order a spicy mince pizza coz you won't get a spicy mince pizza .... Trust me

***** Great food every time *****

Food was okay, have had better previously. Delivery drive came to the door with the pizza on its side, so half of it was completely squished - not great.

Fast delivery, food was delicious! Excellent service. Thankyou!

Food was cold, as the delivery driver went to every other house on the street before he found mine

the food was cold, sauce runny and nan was too thin and was like cardboard could not eat it and the curry went in the bin too as it was swimming in butter, was spicy but other than that it was tasteless. Will never order with them again!!

Excellent service food 5stars , delivery very quick and friendly service

The Taj is by far the best takeaway I have ever ordered from. Their food is second to none. Always tastes fresh and looks fresh. The delivery is quick and friendly. 10/10 for service. 👍🏻

Magic as usual always great food and always on time

First time order from here. Good food and amazing delivery time was here 15 minutes before estimated delivery time

Had to fone up to find out why they hadn't delivered it to find out they did but to wrong address never even received an apology nothing

best pakora in the ayrshire friendly service
