Raj Mohal in East Lindsey

Been many times and always great food and service. What has happened, service poor, we had to ask to be served drinks, food bland and small portion's, salad consisted of cabbage one piece of tomato and one piece of cucumber. Most of the mains do not come with rice or chips now they are separate. When we came in we were greeted by cash only no card as internet down no phone lines, but the phone rang a few times, no little tipple after your meal to.

We've not been here before normally use halal or asha but asha now closed down. Poppadoms were old amd getting soft. Had surma chicken for my main, nothing like surma chicken it just had lots of naga pickle in it, I asked the waiter amd he's said yeah thats it basically l, the curry dishes were small amd for the price I thought way over being 14 00 for a small pit of curry, without the naga in it, would have been really bland. Cheap white paper napkin, really doesn't make the place feel any better. Staff are polite though and nice but at tue end of the day it's all about the food and the curries need to be more vibrant and authentic and fresh spices used with bigger portions if they want people to come back. I'll go back to my old place now

Staff extremely helpful when we asked to move to a quieter table in the restaurant. It was no trouble for them. Balti very tasty. Enjoyed our meal.

I have used this restaurant many times for takeout and Just phoned for takeout and delivery and Lady said they don’t do delivery??

Was easily the best around - now it is Bland and poor value for money. Worth driving to Spice Fusion on Victoria St GY....that IS Good.

Best in louth I have eaten here so many times Still coming back Waiter so nice Even they do free drinks after Meal I recommend this restaurant

Having read reviews, we were looking forward to a delicious Indian meal; what we were served was bland, tasteless food. I’ve eaten in many Indian restaurants and this is one of the worst. The service was very slow despite there being six waiters and so poor with dishes taken off the table, without us being asked, when we hadn’t finished eating them. My dish of a main dish saag bhaji was hardly bigger than a side. I did question this and £1.90(!) was taken off the bill. Wow! I would advise anyone considering eating here to spend their hard earned money elsewhere.

This is a regular dinner spot for us. The food is excellent and the staff are so lovely. Looking forward to our next visit.

Great service and great food. A regular of ours, can't fault this restaurant. Attending again next week. We'll done to the team

Visited last week with our family visiting from Norway, was well looked after nothing was too much trouble our waiter was fantastic and very chatty and friendly. Food was very good, we over ordered not having been here before and know how big the portions were! no probs wrapping it for us to take home it fed us all another meal!! Food was full of flavour and we all enjoyed it thanks very much we shall be back!

We always head here for an Indian meal in Louth. The food is excellent and all the staff are very pleasant and helpful.

Fantastic food! So full of flavour and there’s options for everyone. They don’t deliver to my village but I happily travel 25 miles round trip to go and collect a takeaway from here as it is the best Indian restaurant around! Super friendly service, nothing is ever too much for them and on the rare occasion a mistake is made (we are all human!) they are so apologetic and do what they can to rectify it to the customer’s satisfaction. Highly recommend!

Really nice Indian go there all the time really friendly staff I really enjoy going and the food and for a takaway

My son has come home a few times with a chicken Korma... which is always beautiful. Rich, medium consistency sauce and tender pieces of chicken. Accompanied by a plain naan and chips... all fresh and very tasty. I was lucky that my lad decided to bring me back a curry! I went for the phaal. I have always found a good test of a chef is one who can make a very hot curry.. but one that has a really good taste. This was one of those! The curry was pretty hot.. but not unpleasant. I like a spicy curry... but not to suffer eating it! Dark red, green chilli and ginger evident. Rich tomato base gravy full of flavour. This wasn't just a curry that a pot of chilli powder was thrown in... this was a mix of fresh herbs and spices.. skillfully blended. The chicken chunks were large and so so tender and juicy. Melt in the mouth. Accompanied by pilau rice... not clumpy.. yellow and coloured with a good flavour of clove. Very light and fluffy. Garlic naan... well out of this world. Teardrop shaped. Not too large and not too small. Perfect. Fresh, soft and crispy... all how a naan should be! Both curries are lovely. I look forward to taking some friends to the restaurant in the future. Definitely worth a trip.

Could not fault this place at all, food was amazing, very tasty with beautiful spices from the starters to the main course. Service excellent, what else can I say. Definitely be back soon. 5 ⭐

Vile tasted poor not authentic at all, chilli powered used instead of real spices. When I complained, member of staff said that’s how it should taste and was rude. Flys in there, We Never go again. All 3 of us disliked our meals and it was quite. Really disappointing

Had a lovely family meal here tonight was welcomed by friendly staff and a lovely smell from incense sticks. We told them that we were here on holiday gave good recommendations on the area. Food was full of flavour and taste Tandoori King Prawns were deliciously cooked perfect. Vegetable curry very good one of the best we've had and Onion bhaji which I seen someone on here recommended 👌 not greasy like you find some. When we asked for the bill they offered us all a complimentary drink I went for the Irish coffee. Very happy with service and meal here tonight .

Chose this restaurant during recent visit to #Louth and we weren’t disappointed. Fast service, friendly staff, good food and good prices.

As always excellent food whether it be dit in or take away the quality never alters. Superb, thank you.

Very lovely experience. Tasty curry and absolutely fantastic service. We booked on the same day and had a wonderful experience. Lovely barstaff and brill waiters. Thank you, we’ll be back again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

As always very very nice Very taste and very welcoming All my friends visited first time They all like it

We were taken here by friends who have been eating here for years. On arrival we found the restaurant very busy and we're told to come back in 30 mins. Returning, we were placed in seating that was not suitable. Being a large chap, I...

A nice restaurant, with a very friendly service. They are well able to deal with bigger groups. We we with 15_20 people and we’re swrved very well. We started with poppadoms, for all. These (and the sips) tasted very nice. I don’t know what all...

Went for a meal the other night food was brilliant the facilities were great and the staff were very helpful especially the two girls that worked

Good food. Polite service. Little gem in a town with not much else going for it. 10% off takeaways was nice too. Would recommend.

Had a wonderful meal with my wife, popadoms and pickle tray for starters. Tandoori King prawn and Louth Raj Mahal special with a stuffed paratha delicious we could not eat it all - stuffed. Covid control spaced out and plenty of hand sanitiser and the...

My husband and I stayed in Mablethorpe for a week and did the round trip to Louth twice to go to the Raj Mohal. We don't usually visit a restaurant twice in one week but we made an exception because the food was so delicious....

Love this place. The service here is second to none. Some of the best service I’ve experienced. Fantastic service and the food is brilliant.

Our first night in town we picked up a Chinese takeaway next door to Raj Mohal. Man did it smell great. I think it was inevitable that we would eat there during our stay. As nice as the staff was, I am sorry to say...

This is highly recommended by me and my friends we ordered food and came and got it within half and hour and was incredibly impressed that it was still hot when we got home and the presentation was still exceptional after a 20 min car...

Top marks all around for my experience at Raj. Went with a friend and had a beautiful lamb jalfrezi, mushroom rice and a couple of beers. All was of an excellent standard. The portion size was generous and the curry was very flavoursome with perfectly...

Every time I visit Raj Mohal, the food is always good, fresh & consistent. I have never had a bad meal here. I've nearly gone through the menu and never disappointed. The wine is always good and not overpriced. I cannot fault this restaurant. The...

Consistently brilliant food. Perfectly spiced. Friendly staff. Really part of the community. Spotlessly clean.

Been here a few times, most recently in August '19 for a family meal. It had been a couple of years since our last visit, yet the owner and staff recognised us and gave their customary 5 star warm welcome and service. The food, as always, leaves me at a loss for an adequate superlative. Easily the best I've ever had.Out of curiosity, because I find it hard to believe anyone could fail to enjoy a meal here, I took a few moments to read the bad reviews. There's a pattern: the authors share a grasp of spelling, grammar and punctuation that would embarrass a ten-year-old and complain about the blandness of the dishes. My guess would be they've destroyed their palettes with decades of smoking and heavy drinking and are the kind of people who always ask for "the hottest thing on the menu."Take no heed. This place is Michelin star material.

Pleasant and relaxing restaurant. Excellent service! Food is great and wait is not long. Reasonable prices.

I reviewed this restaurant around a year ago. It is consistent and didn't disappoint. It was fairly busy for mid-week. The service and food is still excellent!

My family and friends have been regulars at 'The Raj' for nearly 20 years and it's about time we thanked Rupon and Rajat for the hundreds of meals we've had from them.The menu is extensive and includes all the standard meals that you'd expect - and more. The food is consistently excellent and the 'strength' of the spicey meals such as curries is very consistent so you know you'll get the 'hotness' that you prefer.Their take-aways are exactly the same as the eat-in meals and are an option we often use when we don't have the time to have an evening out.For both visitors to the town, such as those visiting Cadwell Park, and local people who drive there, parking outside or in the nearby car-park (50yds away around the corner) this is a restaurant we can recommend without hesitation.

Food was delicious and good for value! Had the tandoori mix grill and everything was cooked perfectly. Friend had chicken tikka masala and said that wasn’t too spicy, just the perfect level. Her 3 year old loved it too! We will defiantly go back!

Excellent service very friendly staff and the food is outstanding from the moment you walk in you are made to feel welcomed nothing is too much trouble for them

5 stars from me and the wife, fantastic food, service and price and such friendly owners staff. Nothing is a problem, We visit at least twice per month.

Great little Indian to eat at go there a lot nice friendly staff as well and you can takeaway all in all a good place to eat

This is my favourite Indian restaurant. Love the food and the choice. Really good vegetarian choices.

Definitely had better. Brought three meals and can't really complain about the price, but it's nothing to shout about. Curry was rather bland in flavour. Partner said the meat was nice and that was about it. Probably wouldn't end up returning.

Always great food and service highly recommended both eat in and takeaway both are good prices also.

Great service, great food, great drinks will be going back as it was that good. Very friendly people and nothing is a problem.

So that we could relax after carols at St James Church we went back once again to the Raj Mohal . This time we had a takeaway instead of enjoying the atmosphere of the restaurant .

We were gutted when our favourite takeaway/ Indian closed in Louth, but we ventured here to satisfy our hunger a time or two.

In a rush on Friday, place was empty at 9pm?? looked like they were closing up. Had chicken jalfrezi, meet was ok and well marinated to be honest,service good but the actual chicken jalfrezi as a meal was not prepared as they do in Indian restaurants traditionally and I’ve eaten all over the world.

This was a solo visit on business in the area when a hotel meal didn’t appeal. I had popadoms and chutneys (interesting coconut chutney) followed by a tandoori mixed grill served with a plain naan and a medium veg curry. I had ordered a side of saag paneer, but this was overkill as the mixed grill was very generous. The food was fresh and well prepared but I found it all a little under spiced and insufficiently seasoned - clearly caters for the local market well but I’m used to a bit more chilli in my seek kebab. Service was efficient and friendly and if I’m in Louth again I wouldn’t hesitate in popping in.

We were at an event in Mablethorpe and googled Indian restaurants in a 10 mile radius.

Been here twice since we moved to Lincolnshire. Best poppadoms,nans are sublime and curry to die for. Staff very attentive and nothing too much trouble. Would not eat a curry anywhere else now.

I have visited here a few times now. Sometimes with friends, other times just my partner and I. There has never been an occasion that we have had a bad experience and tonight was no exception. The food and service were top notch. Absolutely no complaints whatsoever. All in all a perfect meal. Will definitely be back.

I have been eating here for the past 14years with my work colleagues. We attended on Saturday 8/9/18 for a colleagues leaving meal, a party of eleven. We had just finished our main course and they asked us if we would leave as they had a FAMOUS BAND waiting for a table , at first we thought it was a joke until we were asked to leave our table a further 4 times, we hadn't even decided whether we wanted dessert or coffee and it was clear we were not getting the option to choose. Whilst the food was as usual very good the service this visit was appalling.

Went to raj mahol for a change and it was by far the best Indian I have ever had. Really good price too. I would recommend this Indian to everyone

Been to this place a few times. Don't look at the outside - just go through the door.. You will get a warm greeting from the staff! The seating is comfortable and surroundings very nice. Being from West Yorkshire we are used to a 'good' curry - not the usual coconut and cream infused rubbish that you get down in Lincolnshire. The Raj does not disappoint at all. If you would like something to your individual taste then just ask. My husband's chicken Vindaloo was fabulous. Due to being let down by our taxi we were stuck in the restaurant for over an hour and were well looked after. Nothing is too much trouble for these guys - highly recommended.

Had some people over to our rented holiday cottage, about twelve of us as I recall. We were a varied gang and intent on 'having a few' so went down to collect a meal. Two of the raiding party were already quite refreshed so obviously we massively over ordered. The Raj was quite busy so we just had a couple of the excellent Kingfisher beers and waited.

So. We came to Louth to go to the ranch. Who couldn't seat us till 9. Honestly. I was disappointed. However on our way down to the ranch wed walked past this glorious smell of Indian food and joked about how we could always go there if we couldnt get a table.

Celebrated my 62nd birthday at the Raj Mohal on Satuday May 26th, and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I am glad to have found a restaurant unafraid to remain just a little bit old fashioned in some ways (the ways that matter) in the menu and in offering great service. The Mulligatawny soup (a favourite of mine but a dish hard to find in London nowadays because too many restaurants try too hard to be trendy) was one of the best I've tasted, and the main courses were well presented, properly cooked and freshly prepared. And thank you for a Vindaloo challenging enough for an old campaigner like me. I am looking forward to the next one.

After finding this restaurant on Google, we called in twice in a week while on holiday . Greeted by friendly staff in comfortable surroundings. Great variety on the menu.

I cannot understand why other reviewers rated the food so highly here. The highlight was the pickles that came with the poppadums. Two out of our three main courses were bland with tough overcooked meat, although the CTM was enjoyable as was the nan. The paratha, on the other hand was verging on leathery, not the flakey delight we have had in other restaurants. Service was friendly and efficient but overall the food was disappointing.

Tried this Indian restaurant for the first time and were not disappointed. The staff were very friendly and attentive, The prices were very reasonable and the quality of food was good.

Chicken Surma is the best on the menu here.Nan breads can be a bit hit and miss.Parking can be difficult when the "roads" busy. Friendly and always on time when ordered.

I've been going here for 20 years. I've eaten curry all over the world including many cities in India. I use this restaurant as my yard stick, and honestly I have been hard pushed to find better. Consistently good food, great service and great price. Very friendly staff who will go out of their way to ensure you have a great meal.

We visited this restaurant at random late on a Saturday night after a show.

Really impressed at the food here. The dhansak is especially good - with a rich flavour and a lovely texture to the sauce. Also it was cheaper than most. We would definitely go back whenever we're in Louth.

We had a lovely meal, plenty to choose from. At a reasonable price. Staff friendly. The restaurant is not far from where we live. Friends go there alot.

Food was nice not amazing but nice.small cosy environment.service good but little slow getting the drinks.overall a nice restaurant.takeaway better though.

Visited on a Saturday night with my wife and 8 others , place was very clean and well presented ,...

Had the Chicken Surma and nan. Excellent flavours and quality meat. Based on this dish, I shall be using the...

Excellent food and they gave us a table even though we hadn't booked. Good service I can recommend it.

Nuestros amigos que han estado aquí anteriormente nos trajo aquí como una sorpresa. Fue una agradable sorpresa. Chili de cilantro era potente y muy sabroso. Eran excelentes. Bhagi El jalfrezi ragzella y eran muy buenos. Un montón de comida y una cálida bienvenida le obligarnos...

Un restaurante excelente, todo el personal era amable, atento y acogedor, la comida es buenísima y nada es demasiado problema para el personal para asegurarte de que tienes una gran comida.

Popped in to Raj Mohal whilst on holiday in Lincolnshire. We only needed a take away as my wife and I only wanted to share a main so we didn't need to sit down. We were received warmly, like old friends and even though we only wanted a take away, we were still made to feel welcome. For the meal itself, the popadoms were average and I thought it could do with a change of oil. For starters, we had onion bhaji which was good and a chicken chat that was excellent. We shared a meat biryani that was okay but nothing to write home about. We would go again if we lived in this area.

Everything from the staff to the food is excellent. By far the better Indian restaurant in Louth. I would reccommend a visit

Great Staff. Good food. I asked for an onion naan and the waiter looked at me "gone out". He said he would ask the chef and hey presto we got a plain naan and an onion naan! Good effort for a first try. Really enjoyed our meal. I would go there again and againCheers Lads!

I have been using this restaurant for 30 odd years and in that time they have always been consistently good,the food is always fresh and good quality, a warm welcome always awaits and the atmosphere is relaxed and the staff are superb. Highly recommended and a treat for your taste buds awaits

My family and I visited the Raj on Saturday evening, after booking a table of five at 6:30, to eat for 7:30. When we arrived, the place was packed with people waiting in the bar area. We waited until around 7:45 to be seated and served a drink, but in all honesty, we were grateful for a table given the last minute booking!I am usually fair pessimistic when it comes to Indian food and don't normally enjoy it as much as other types of food. I think my meal on Saturday night has changed my opinion... we ordered five different curries, a range of starters to arrive with the mains and the usual naam breads and rice. They arrived swiftly and all tasted absolutely delightful. Every dish was spot on and tasted gorgeous. All of which was washed down with a couple of beers and a few glasses of wine. Overall, the bill came to £94 which is very reasonable given the level of quality! Finally, it's pleasant to see the same staff there from years ago, still smiling and providing a good service.Keep it up. We will be back!

This Indian is a friendly yet professional, clean, family run restaurant serving traditional English curries such as Balti and jalfrezi. Chicken Dhansak is my favourite - hot, spicy and full of lentils. Louth has a few curry houses, one other traditional style, two modern and a takeaway however this one is my go to place for a curry.

Great Indian , really good food and very very good staff that are extremely friendly. This is also a very child friendly restaurant. The menu is very easy to understand and also gives a good variety of dishes. The Kingfisher is also on tap!A must go when in Louth

Traditional non pretentious and good value Indian restaurant. Dishes enjoyable. No nan bread available for our visit but chapati offered as alternative very good. Decor and lighting a little tired. We enjoyed an early evening curry.

Over the years I visited this curry house on many occasions, usually with friends. People in Louth seem to love the place but I can't help thinking that it's because there is a lack of better alternatives. Don't get me wrong, there is a nice ambience to the place, the staff are very friendly and efficient and the prices are reasonable, hence the 3 stars. In my opinion though, I find the food bland, the strength of the curries are sadly compared to many Indian restaurants I've been to. I tend not to go for hot curries because I love the flavours in Indian cuisine but I can eat a vindaloo strength curry at the Raj without any problem because they lack strength and flavour, which I think is a shame.I'd like to hope it will have changed when I inevitably eat there again but I doubt it seeing it's been this way for years.

Very many years since I have eaten here. The interior has had a makeover and is quite pleasant. The menu though doesn't seem to have progressed, so expect the traditional fare - match the sauce with the meat/veg served in little dishes on 1970s food warmers. So, not very inspiring, but ok. My veg madras was lacking in spice and the lingering taste was of pepper in the back of the throat, rather like a cheap Chinese Curry. Friends lamb madras was 'just OK'. Of the four eat-in Indian restaurants in Louth, I'd rate this 3rd.

The raj is simply one of the best Indian restaurants I have been to the service is exemplary and the price reasonable

Thanks to other TA reviewers we decided to try this one out and without doubt will highly recommend it. This is a small cosy restaurant and a perfect place to have a meal whilst catching up with friends or even dining as a couple or by yourself. After reading some of the reviews about poor service I was apprehensive to dine here however our experience could't have been more different. We found the staff to be very attentive and the waiter who took our order was very polite. We had a Vegetable biriyani, Tarka dal, Bhindi bhaji and a Peshwari nan. All meals were full of flavour and very good value for money.

this is one of the better Indians in Louth, we've been many times, like it here. especially the lamb vindaloo, my favourite there.

Always good food and good service A good selection, staff always welcoming nothing is ever a problem, parking can be a problem, but a car park is just around the corner.

Amazing restaurant. I reviewed it on my 1235th time going (that's not actually a lie I've gone all my life). It's the best restaurant I've ever been to and I've never been let down. Food is amazing. Staff is polite and a lovely atomsphere.

We eat here a lot, great food great service, nothing seems to much trouble. Always on my list of places to eat out.

We've never had a bad meal here. The vast menu is very reasonably priced, the staff very friendly and efficient and the atmosphere buzzing. Well worth a visit if you're in the area.

In my opinion its the best in town, however I find it so expensive to dine in the resturant (I know its more etc with tax or whatever) but it seems like so so much more. I have has several takeaways from the raj and never had a bad experiance they're brilliant.

Very disappointed on service and food. Lacked in flavour mixed our dishes up and abrupt member of staff every time he attended the table. Busy was not an excuse

The best Indian in Louth and I've used them all,the food is very tasty and they will spice it up all you like.Clean and spacious and for a good price.

Went for sit in service. Food is good. Service is slow albeit friendly enough. The worst part is the fact that you are sitting at the same table as ur neighbor. Makes for a very warm and uncomfortable experience. You add to that you're sitting around waiting for servers to remember that you're there and it can not be recommended for an intimate dinner for 2--but rather an intimate dinner of whatever the amount of people sitting at your table at that moment.

It is very good for your typical Indian food, and is generally good with serving has lots of different options and a hot level chart to tell you if it will be too hot for you.Really nice people who serve and good food

When me and my partner came here we ordered 2 curries, at the time they did taste nice but ended up with food poisoning, for a whole week we both was very unwell, reported to the council and authority

We haven't been for a while but its still brilliant. Can't fault the food or service. We often eat out & this is still the best place to dine out. We went on a wednesday evening & were surprised at how busy it was, so we're not the only people who really rate this place. I would recommend the onion bargee - the best u will ever taste!!! We shall be returning sooner rather than later

We have been eating here for over 10 years and have not had anything but excellent service and food. The onion bhagi's are the best I have had anywhere in the world. We love it!

myself and two friends recently ate at the Raj and the food was amazing as always. the Raj is the only Indian that we will eat from even if having a takeaway. the service is always really good. if you want good service and amazing food then chose the Raj for your Indian.
