This was the worst Indian meal I've ever had with the worst service. There was a table of young men near to us clearly drunk using loud unacceptable language . It was difficult to have a conversation above their noise. Although the dishes were rated for their hotness there was no heat or flavour at all in the sauces. They were bland and tasteless.The chicken was in stringy strips and very dry in one of the dishes. The naan bread was freshly cooked and fine. But the service was terrible and the head waiter very surly. Would certainly not return or recommend to anyone.

Visited friends in Crowborough and ordered a takeaway. The menu is huge with so many dishes which I did find a bit extreme and wondered if with so many choices the quality would be reduced. I was proved wrong and all dishes were flavoursome and enjoyed by the group. Chicken was tender and my Jalfrezi provided a good kick from the green chilli! Definitely one of the best Indian takeaways I’ve had in a while. Would certainly recommend.

I have eaten here only a handful of times over the years, preferring the food, atmosphere and staff at the Rose of Bengal, but I have always enjoyed my experience here. Having decided to go to the Rose of Bengal for my partners birthday dinner, we were disappointed to find that they were fully booked. The Rajpoot, however, had a table available and we were happy to go there. We booked for 6pm, as we all prefer to eat early. There was only one party table in the restaurant when we arrived. Although the waiters were attentive to begin with, they took our drinks order, brought out poppadoms and took the order for our meal, it all went to pot after that. They were very busy with take away meals and the restaurant soon began to fill with other diners. Our starters arrived, were consumed and enjoyed. Then the wait began. Tables who ordered after us were served, and we waited. The waiters were running backwards and forwards providing takeaways but still our food didn't come. After the table behind us (who had not been there long) got their food, I decided it was time to ask what had happened to ours. I managed to catch a waiter going past and he said he would check. When he came back, he said it was just coming. At this stage I began to think that somehow our ticket had been missed in the kitchen. The hot plate and our plates arrived, but still no food. Our plates began to get cold so we asked for new ones. The new ones arrived and, an hour and 10 minutes after ordering, our meals finally arrived. The waiters were rushed and a certain impatience was evident when we didn't respond immediately to identify whose dish was whose. Two of us had the Nepal Chicken and said that it was nothing like they had had before, but edible. One had Kushboo Chicken which was tough and had a weird texture. I had Meat Ceylon and the lamb was tough. I found a large lump of gristle which I had to spit out and it put me off eating more. The Onion Bhajis were greasy, and arrived looking like one big pile rather than 4 shaped bhajis. The best part of the meal was the Garlic Naan, which had clearly been freshly cooked. Not one waiter came to ask if the food was ok, and having waited as long as we had we didn't want to wait for replacement food, so we ate what we could. There was a lot of food left and when the waiter came to clear the table we told him that we were not happy with the meal and he tried to tell us that we had eaten most of it! He then went on to say that the restaurant had been operating since 1992 and that they always had good reviews - well here is the FIRST bad one. Instead of listening to our genuine complaint and taking it on board he clearly didn't want to listen. The dessert menu was brought to the table and we said we would look, but nothing appealed, so after waiting for a waiter to respond to our attempts to catch their attention we decided that the best way would be to get up and act as if leaving. The head waiter then hurriedly brought our bill. We told him about our experience and he was a little more sympathetic trying to say that they were so busy, it was unfortunately having an effect. He did reduce the bill by 10% and gave us brandy and Baileys but that went little way to compensate for a bad experience and it does not alter my opinion that I will not spend my hard earned money in this restaurant again. There were a number of tables looking at their watches and huffing and puffing, so I don't think we were the only ones, and I am sure that there was also tables who were satisfied with what they got. BUT I for one will never go back here or recommend it to family and friends. I fully appreciate that it has been tough on the hospitality business during COVID, but I feel that they are sacrificing their good quality and reputation in order to recoup the money they have lost. Their mission statement is: At Rajpoot we have a very clear and precise mission, to impress our customers by giving them the highest degree of service possible and by providing them with the freshest, finest & good quality food at reasonable prices, in a soothing and comfortable environment. In my opinion, there is some work to do to achieve this.

This was out fifth meal from the Rajpoot since moving to Crowborough. The dishes were again of very high standard and flavour. All guests commented on how delicious their meals were. The meat was tender and well done which is essential for me. I really love it when an establishment is consistent in their quality and you can rely on it. Thanks Rajpoot for another great meal.

We have eaten at Raj Poot several times and have never been disappointed. Tonight (whilst still under lock down) we tried their takeaway service. It was excellent from start to finish. Their online ordering system was simple to use, comprehensive, and gave a collection time 30 minutes hence. When I went to collect I received a warm welcome, an efficient contactless payment system using my debit card and the quick arrival of our food. As a complete surprise I was presented with a large bottle of Cobra beer. Perfect! When I got the food home there were a couple of unexpected culinary "gifts" and the food was, as always, excellent. The excellence was not a surprise but the amount of food was. We ate all we could (and I drank the Cobra) and there was enough food left for tomorrow's dinner - making it superb value for money. What more could we ask for? Nothing!

Went here with my daughter as I just loved the look of the restaurant from the outside, as it looked very traditional and not too modern.I ordered a vindaloo which was delicious and hot, but the only niggle was the lack of chicken in the dishes. as the portions were on the small side.I loved the atmosphere inside, as they were playing traditional music which I always feel brings authenticity to an Indian meal ( Why some restaurants play pop music is beyond me I must admit !!!)Had complimentary drinks after the meal, which was a lovely touch and we really enjoyed the whole experience there, and would come back again, but live to far away as was just passing through Crowborough.The staff are extremely friendly and efficient, which does add value to this gem of a restaurant.

We were across the street in a pub and asked some locals how to get to another recommended Indian restaurant . They said Rajpoot directly across the street was a better choice. The good news was that we already had a parking spot. We walked over to a place run by a staff of pleasant locals. I had the chicken Madras(supposedly medium hot) I could have used more spice. Basmati rice and naan. My wife had a mild lamb dish. Everything we had was quite good. We were early and as we ate the restaurant began to fill up. Popular place.

What better way is there than to start the weekend with a lip smackingly scrumptious Indian meal. First thing to note is this curry house has always been full and buzzing whenever we visit, so that to me is a sign of a good night out...needless to say all six of us weren’t disappointed. Food selection is really good, not too much, not to little, and food to accommodate all types, burn your mouth off, or milder than a mild thing. Staff are always attentive and helpful to whatever your needs, so credit where credit is due. I went for a king prawn toofan and it was delicious (you must try it) along with the vast selection of side dishes....yummy. First class night of food...and drink

Five of us got together here as it was midway between various homes. Staff excellent, service great, food very good, the onion bhajis some of the best I have had. I do feel that the chicken in a shashlik could be smaller chunks but then again I could always cut them up myself! Plenty of food, somehow we managed it all and we were even offered a drink on the house at the end which was a wonderful surprise. Sadly as a driver I had to decline. This place had been recommended by a friend who lives locally and loves Indian food so very glad we could try it.

A group of us visited this indian restaurant in the week for a birthday party. The food was terrible and was clearly not cooked by an Indian cook. It was so bland I may have eaten cardboard which would probably have had more taste. I have now gone off Indian food as the thought of it makes me feel ill.The attitude of the owner left a lot to be desired. Everything was too much trouble. One of my friends had to return her meal as it was too sweet to eat when it came back there was so much spice on it that it could not be eaten.

The lamb bhuna was delicious. The waiters are attentive but unobtrusive. We were given free liqueurs after our meal and didn't feel we were being rushed to leave. There was Indian music playing quietly which added to the atmosphere, but I did find it a bit dark. It's a good place to eat with family and friends. They also do an excellent take-away service.

Its a small, intimate restuarant but me and my wife didn't mind that at all. And when the food came out, it was delicious!!

Located in the middle of Crowborough in London road.This well established restaurant offer an extensive menue consisting of all the usual dishes you find in such restaurants, but with a big difference because the food is freshly cooked, and very tasty.We went there for lunch on Sunday 8/11/2015, and had a big welcome as soon as we arrived, and sat at our usual tableRajpoot is the perfect place to spend some happy time over lunch or dinner at night listening to indian music which forms part of the atmosphere.We had a lot of nibbles,starters,mains, and desserts with unique touches throughout.This is Indian food at its best.

Love the food here, Iv tried the other options in the town but this is by far the best choice. the only downside is that they do not deliver.The food is worth the drive to pick it up tho. And well priced too.

Best Indian food in the area. If like me you love Indian but not hot this is the place as tell the staff what you do or dont like and they will cater for you. Staff are great especially Sam. Prices are reasonable if you want Saturday night you will have to book as its so popular

We were looking around for an indian and went here after reading good reviews. We were a party of five. The food was good but the service was not. It was a very busy Saturday with a lot of takeaways so we may have just been unlucky. We had our drinks and had finished our poppadams, still they had not taken our order so we had to chase which meant a long delay before our starters arrived. The onion bhajees were particularly tasty. Fresh orange slices after your meal were a nice touch as was complimentary baileys for the ladies and brandy for the men at the end. We again had to chase for our bill.

It is necessary to book in advance as it was very busy. The food was plentiful. On the day I went taking the food order was very slow and they were rushed off their feet. I had no 75 Lamb Makan Walla which had a lot of coconut in it which it did not say on the menu and I have problems with and suffered during the night with the rejection of it. I should have returned it but saw how busy they were. My friends enjoyed their meals. The tables are very close but it has a good ambiance.

Dropped in on spec as it was getting late and we wanted a takeaway. Not our normal choice but thought we'd give it a go. Very Pleased we did. Very busy in the sit in but the takeaway only took 20 minutes and was very fresh. I had one really tough piece of chicken towards the end which spoilt it a little but everything else was spot on. Good service great food and not too expensive. We are planning on going back for a sit down with the whole family so i'll write another review after that but I'm hoping for something good.

We frequently try this restaurant and food has always been good due to great special dishes which they had but somehow it has changed as on my last visit the food description did not match the dish I ordered as I do not like sweet dishes and no 61 dish "Dhaba Murgh" did not say it is sweet, somehow the choices has become limited and is inclined to be sweet rather than proper savoury spicy Indian dishes, I hope that they will improve their menu back to what it was before.

I've visited the Raj Poot regularly now for years and in my opinion it cannot be beaten! Every dish is individual and full of flavour! The staff are very informative and very personable. Highly recommend a meal here!

Eat here quite regularly either take-away or sit-in. Some Indian restaurants dont offer the same quality when you have a take away - this place is excellent every time. Can highly recommend the oinion bahji's - best in the area.

Takeaway for the family was bought, the men serving inside were very welcoming and the food when eaten was great! Have been to Rajpoot over many years and it has always maintained a high service level.

We visit this restaurant about once a year or so for an old College reunion. Despite not having booked, they were able to fit us in for a table of six. Food was as good as usual, served hot and the menu as varied as could be expected. At the end we were all presented with an offer of brandy on the house, but as we were all driving we politely refused. Cost including tip came to £25/head

Food was of good quality however they couldn't wait to reuse the table. Plates were being cleared almost before we had finished which spoilt the occasion. We have not visited since and are unlikely to do so.

The staff here were exceedingly rude, sharp people with no patience. I had a good mind to tell them so a number of times. The food could have been nice but it was LOADED with sugar. Cheap trick to make the punters drink more beer. We thought it to be disgusting as every dish taste the same because of the sugar. A table of loud football hooligans were prioritized above all the educated. That is obviously Rajpoots best clientele. A couple behind us were complaining of being over charged and the waiter said hurry up and pay!!! We were then over charged too so I complained but completely ignored. Unfortunately some people have rated it good and excellent. These people should review their ideas on cuisine and only review or comment when actually speaking from true experience and knowledge. Unfortunately this is a problem for trip advisor as more and more people are joining and reviewing when they do not have a clue about cuisine/service or food in general.
