Rajput in Sheffield

Our visit was ruined by the extremely rude and unprofessional behaviour of the front-of-house staff. We were treated with contempt and made to feel like an inconvenience. Disgusted by their attitude, we decided to leave without trying the food.

Best Indian Food in Sheffield! "Rajput is hands-down one of the best Indian restaurants I’ve been to in Sheffield. The lamb biryani was full of flavor, and the portion size was generous. The staff really took the time to make sure we were enjoying our meal, which made the experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone craving a proper Indian feast!"

Rajput Indian Restaurant is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Indian cuisine. The combination of delicious food, excellent service, and a cozy ambiance makes it a standout dining destination. I will definitely be returning to enjoy more of their mouthwatering dishes. The restaurant also offers a range of vegetarian Dishes. The portions were generous, and the presentation was impeccable.

Brilliant takeaway , all really tasty and fresh. Highly recommend the tandoori fish masala curry, so good. Definitely going to order again .

The Staff were polite and did their absolute best to come to your needs as soon as they can, especially during the busy hours on weekend. Food was tasteful and the right temperature. For those who drink alcohol, would need to bring their own as they don’t have a license. Any problems these guys would be quick to fix it and make sure you leave wanting to return again. I really do love coming here for my curry nights. Thanks guys🙌🏼

Been here many times and found food and service always of a good standard . However this last visit was disappointing. The older waiter had little idea of how to serve food to customers and was passing it across the table. Very odd . It was a quiet evening with only a handful of customers The place was cold and smelt of damp . The seats were filthy and the place is generally tired and looks like it needs a deep clean . Normally the place is full so you don’t notice the chairs etc but because it was quiet on our last visit we saw it in the light of day so to speak and the bench seating was disgusting. Really dirty . Toilets were tired and smelly and no hot water . Taps spun round and nothing to wipe hands on. Will not return until some Cleaning has been done sorry .

Food was bland and room temp at best, service was very much below standard had better service and curry from a Wetherspoons and that says a lot. Would not return as the price did not reflect the service or food quality disappointed is an understatement.

Food very mid. Overpriced for standard. Starter not hot. Given bill then when came to pay, waiter turned it over to see another total with a tenner added on. When we asked questions were told it was originally added up wrong but there was plenty of space on the front of the bill to have corrected the total. Just seemed odd. Too many staff so floor just overcrowded with lads stood round not knowing what to do. Lamb totally overdone, ate one or two bites and rest went untouched.

Spent 10 mins looking at the menu. Chose dishes. Cash only. What business today only accepts cash? Guys. Buckle up and get with it. Get digital.

Really friendly good food, not licensed so take your own drinks.

Absolutely fantastic service Incredible food and amount 👌 Usually eat on the restaurant but was so impressed with the take out Highly recommended

Food was very nice I did really enjoy it. The staff never came round and asked if everything was OK, we struggled getting a second drink and had to get up to ask. Also the old fella when putting our food down was banging it on the table really hard which I found extremely rude. Last moan is they put us beside the window and there was masses of flies around us. Would I go back... possibly as the food was quite nice but I think the staff were terrible

Great food, attentive staff. Not to pricey.

We have visited the Raj many times over the years and our last visit was as good as ever. Good food at a good price and it benefits from the dram shop being over the road for drinks.

We were in town for a reunion with our travelling companion's friends-- they did their post doc studies here. The gaggle of nine of us piled into the restaurant on a reservation and had an absolutely delightful evening. Everybody got something different and every bit of it was amazing. Our friend can be a bit of a snob about Indian food, so for them to give it a five star is a big compliment!. If you happen to be in Sheffield and want some good Indian food I'd highly recommend it. They have something for all spice levels-- I can't do any spice anymore and the mango delight was over the top good.

Great food, I enjoyed all the delicious curries served to me and the atmosphere was really calm and nice.

Still after 10 year the most consistent high quality takeaway in north Sheffield

Best indian restaurant I've been to.

Gorgeous, amazing food, beautifully cooked. Rarely had Indian food as good. I've never gad Mango Chicken before, it was glorious.

Food was really a mouthwatering and friendly staff and tranquil environment. I really loved it.

Takeaway .. food was brilliant and will 100% return Wait times for food was as expected 15 ish minutes All the guys in here are brilliant and can't do enough for you 5☆

Family meal out. I am not from the area but was visiting family. The meal was absolutely delicious and more importantly felt fresh and very tasty. I have seen previous comments about staff but the waiter we had was superb. Just remember it is take your own alcohol although there is an off licence just across the road. Would definitely recommend.

Brilliant and tasty food and great atmosphere 👌

Picked up for takeaway, I didn't eat inside! Was really friendly staff with big smiles on their faces when they greeted me. Food was reasonably priced for an Indian restaurant. It was delicious and could have eaten more! Will definitely be returning again! 🤤🤤🤤 @mantiumofficial @tektonik0 @t.a.g.0114

Food was amazing... no complaints.. The older guy who was waiting and serving seemed very stressed and slightly angry? 5 stars would have been given had it not been for old guy making us feel like we were a sting in his backside 🤔

This is my favourite Indian restaurant, never had a bad meal. My go to curry is garlic chilli chicken which is superb, also you can take your own alcohol.

Best curry in Sheffield, Takeaway is still as good as ever 👌🏻

My partner has been coming here for over 20 years, I recently started to enjoy the right of passage. The food is phenomenal (coming from London where we have a huge amount of Indian restaurants, I can hand on heart say The Rajput is one of the bests I’ve come across). The chicken is always so tender with no gristle, portion sizes are very generous and the food is the perfect balance of spices and heat. I always look forward to coming to Sheffield so I can indulge in a Rajput. It is the highlight of my trip!

We regularly order from Rajput and o don’t tend to review … but they are consistently amazing and we have not had a bad dish from them ever. Their meat is of high quality and their bahjis are delicious. Keep it up Rajput, we have tried many takeaways closer to us but travel back to you each time. 10/10

Thirty of us went there for a Christmas dinner with work. The service was awful. Despite having pre-ordered the food, we had to wait for more than an hour before anything arrived. In the meantime, there was no apology or explanation for the delay, on the contrary, we were completely ignored and we had to struggle to even ask for some water. When some of us asked when the food would arrive, the response was rude. Definitely not recommended for large groups.

The service is terrible. Wait for more than an hour for the food and no explanation or apology for delayed serving. Missing dishes and pretending we didn’t order them.

Good food at reasonable prices though be aware you will need to bring your own booze as no license held.

Lovely people lovely food open since 1985 that says it all for us

Consistently good, always a reliable curry. Bring your own too and the Dram shop across the road is a perfect place to pick your tipple. Small restaurant but somehow manage to get a good number of tables in. Onion bhajis are very good and recommended. The takeaway restaurant is next door so don’t be confused.

We visited the restaurant tonight for a meal for my son’s birthday. The food came quickly and was hot but very average. The staff however were unfriendly and arrogant, they obviously wanted to close early and we felt uncomfortable,rushed and intimidated even though we had a 7.45 booking. They disappeared into the kitchen before we left and didn’t reappear.Won’t be going again and wouldn’t recommend this place at all.

The food is nice and great that you can bring your own alcoholic drinks but the staff are very rude and impatient.

Rajput is an average curry house with less than average service. The food was mediocre at best and the atmosphere was off putting, it was full of people all shouting with no respect for other tables. The waiters try to rush you through by bringing your next whilst you’re still eating your last.

Wonderful takeaway food, top quality every time

Just Brilliant - Food Superb & The Main Man Is Like A Friend

Delicious food, friendly service. We had lamb Rogan Josh chicken sashlick and sag paneer. All excellent.

lovely staff very organised on the ball with serving delicious food no long waiting for food will definetly go again

Garlic chili chicken 🥰 brilliant

Have ordered from here a handful Of times, the food is piping hot, fresh, and delicious. They have often given us free things with our orders like poppadoms and naans. Any dish with chicken tikka here is exceptional, melt in the mouth tender chicken that is perfectly spiced. If I lived closer to The Rajput I’d be there daily if I could! Cannot wait for my next meal there.

We were apprehensive about visiting because of the sparse and mixed reviews but we are so glad we went last night! Absolutely lovely service and the food is top tier!! We went as a couple and had mixed starter, chicken and keema balti apna style, lamb karai apna style, garlic rice, chips & garlic naan. All dishes were so fresh and delicious. We ask for apna style which is the best & so authentic and we were very happy they were perfect. It’s also bring your own alcohol so that’s great too. The restaurant was full and busy a nice mix of families couples and friend groups. Certainly our new fave!

Couldn’t even provide a pilau rice for a takeaway at 8pm on a Friday night (run out!) when complained then refused to serve. Whilst waiting saw them miss 2 dishes for another order and had to apologise and go and add them. Completely overwhelmed and can not cope with moderate demand.

Such good food. We are new to the area and slowly making our way round the local restaurants. Its BYOB which is fine by us. The hostess was really pleasent. Would recommend.

Upon sitting down I could feel the HUM of excitement coming from my fellow curry lovers. It was clear everyone was excited to be hit with a steady DRONE of great taste across every dish. The deep and spicy flavours rose from my mouth to my ears, offering a highly pleasant TINNITUS like sensation. I can only give this fantastic restaurant the most positive FEEDBACK. Amen xxx

Excellent ! Great onion beakers too. BYO makes it even better

Worst place Avoid this place Food was over cooked,, kitchen staff were very dirty,, avoid this place on all cost

Clean and tidy with tasty food and attentive service although slightly pricey

5star top class food every time. Never had a disappointing meal from here constantly excellent Definitely a treat and worth a try

Had a great curry. The bhaji’s and chicken tikka balti were banging. Being BYO saves you a few quid as well.

Nice place nice staff..But 5 small bits of meat(when i found them!) in the curry at allmost £13 was a let down..

The food was less than average. The bharji's were very dry and overcooked. The main course, there was a chicken bone in the rice. The staff were less than helpful and the place was freezing. Won't go again.

Do not go to this place. Incredibly over priced. Complete rip off for the food it is. Just loss of better options than this

Best Indian takeaway food. Absolutely delicious.

Nice atmosphere and delicious food. Would definitely recommend

We have had the worse takeaway curry ever ,the meat was tough ,salty, dry, no sauce on the so called curry! salty chicken is very off putting?Waste of money,not cheap either, and only takes cash? Avoid unless you have a strong stomach,awful.

Lovely food, good service, only criticism would be to have air con on when the restaurant is busy

Nicest curry I've had in Sheffield for a long time. It's a Bring Your Own venue. Only slight criticism is the staff, while being faultless at their jobs, seemed a little what? Formal? Distant? I like a little interaction with staff when out for a meal. But the food: superb!!

Love Rajput have no bad words to say about the food because its delicious every time. But when dining in on Monday night the service was really slow our table was booked for 7.15 got there on time . It took a good 50 min for starters to come out . Then had to wait a hour + for the mains was worth the wait but just not when you have 2 kids complaining they are hungry, the restaurant was not busy at all but other than that it's so worth the money

Absolutely brilliant. Best takeaway, best in-house service, amazing food.

Superb meal tonight....table for 7....lovely atmosphere...well worth a visit...

Great food ,great service and decent price.

I walked 3.3 kms past several other similar restaurants to eat here and it was worth every step. The flavour is second to none! The naan bread, the saag, the rice … everything. The naan was lovely! I’ve lived in various places across the globe and this place is still my fave. Would highly recommend!

Very noisy, table to close together, food very nice

Lovely little restaurant, always enjoy when we go.

Food average service and attitude of the staff abysmal very rude won't be going back

We visted this restaurant for the first time in over a year. OMG how this restaurant has gone down hill, The food used to be very good and the service was good. That has changes dramatically, I ordered a tandoori chicken that used to come with a sauce but not any more the meal was very dry and avarage at best. But the service of the staff was the worst I've ever experienced. No manners whatsoever and they made you feel more like an inconvenience rather than a paying customer. They brought the bill with four chocolates, one for each customer when the tray returned with the change the chocolates had gone. Quite incredible. Don't waste your money.

Not it used to be at all, the waiter is miserable and the food down to the earth, not going back again.

As previous reviews rightly mention, the staff here are sooo rude. I was passing by with my friend and I was hungry so decided to go in and grab a quick dinner. When we entered, the place was completely empty so we actually thought they were closed. There were two not very enthusiastic waiters there. I ordered chicken (starter) and chips, to have it as a main, I'm a tiny girl so this was a big portion for me, and we got drinks and poppadom too. Then the waiter had a go at me for only ordering a starter and chips! And said in a very rude manner that we're not supposed to come here and only had that to eat...we were mindblown by the fact that the waiter was making us feel guilty for what I ordered, and also...the place was completely emtpy?! I ate the food because I was hungry, but I wouldn't be surprised if they spat in my food tbh. Definitely will not be returning to this indian restaurant ever again.

Terrible experience the restaurant was extremely hot like a sauna and i got food poisoning highly dont recommended STAY AWAY

We usually go to Jaflong (Crookes) but fancied a change so we thought we’d give Rajput a go. We’ve been before as a family and it’s always been ok. In hindsight we really wish we hadn’t. Staff were rude - they couldn’t even get our drink order right and there was only 3 of us and none of us drinking alcohol. Our server seemed more interested in chatting with colleagues than doing her job. My partner who has limited mobility was told he couldn’t use the disabled toilet and had to use the gents - we argued this one and won! Tbh, we should have left at that point! However, we thought that the food would be ok so we put our reservations behind us. The food was terrible. The chicken jalfrezi tasted like it had come from a jar and the chicken was like scraps of chicken. The vegetable biryani sauce, which came with the special biryani was supposed to be vindaloo strength was nothing like that and extremely bland. By the end of the meal we couldn’t wait to leave. It was really unpleasant. We did give the staff feedback but they were rude and patronising. Needless to say we won’t be going back. We’ll be sticking with Jaflong in future!!

A party of 9 of us visited recently. The food was lovely as always however the service was terrible. We were made to feel like an inconvenience, no checking to see if we wanted to order additional drinks/food. We were served the bill before we could even ask. The staff looked miserable, a real tense atmosphere created. When we paid we left a decent tip and were not even thanked for visiting.

Although the food we ate was nice, the service received when advising of an issue was not acceptable! We called the waiter, explained what was on the plate. The waiter took the plate & then came back with the article removed and said Chef says there is nothing there ( of course not as he'd just removed it) !! So basically called us Liars !!!! which didn't go down too well !! Then he continued to argue with us in front of the full restaurant - Really unprofessional ! It is the 1st and last time we will ever go here.

Hits the spot just right. Tried various things on the menu and thoroughly enjoyed them all. Can bring your own alcohol too.

This is the best Indian takeaway in Sheffield been going here for years will not go anywhere else enough said.

Food was superb 👌, fantastic prices and BOYB will definitely be back.

Just picked a curry up from here and it's the best I've had for a while.

Really good food would definitely recommend. Book in advance as it gets really busy and full so you need to book it. Would 100 percent visit this restaurant. We will definitely be going back again.

A must visit every time I’m in Sheffield. I love the lamb korma. BYO alcohol with no corkage charge.

Fantastic place really nice food and prompt service

Best Indian restaurant and takeaway that I have ever been to! My favourite place to eat when I visit Sheffield. Food and flavours are just excellent. Fresh, zingy, clean, proper flavours cooked to the highest quality. Don't know what more I can say.

Just picked a curry up from here and it's the best I've had for a while. Guy who were serving was really friendly and we were having a quick chat while waiting. Deffo be back soon👌

Lovely place to go for an Indian. The food was very tasty and the staff were attentive at all times. We went as a group of 6 and all members of our party enjoyed their meals. As mentioned the staff were very good as well. Checking in to see if all was ok and if we needed anything else. Would recommend for either couples or larger groups.

Your average U.K. Indian restaurant. Food was ok. The only positive is their Bring your own bottle(BYOB) policy.

Food, service and environment were superb.

4 families dined and we all ordered different meals, however when they came they all looked exactly the same ! they use the same sauce for all dishes. but on the worrying side the chicken was hard and tasted not of chicken at all. For those that ordered chicken dishes out of the 16 dining, none could eat their dish. when we asked the manager and showed him that none of us had eaten he dismissed it and said the chef said there’s nothing wrong with the chicken and dismissed our concern. Appalling customer service and therefore all 4 families will not be returning. Since our visit I have been informed by another family that they also had to complain about the chicken And their concerns were dismissed too and so they will not be returning either. Boldmere is a very close-knit community and negative feedback spreads quickly and therefore they should really think about providing better customer service and listen to their customers in the future.

Fantastic food nice atmosphere take your own drinks A+++++

Very accommodating staff. The food is of good quality, but not as spicy as my personal pallet likes.

Excellent curry and friendly service!

There's an Indian like this one on every high street in Britain. The food was merely ok, slightly above average prices. I had to walk to the nearest cash point, which was a half mile round trip. No notice on the website, wasn't mentioned on the phone. Food was cold through when I got in, despite being promised it'd be kept warm. On their own none of these are a deal-breaker, but together...

This place is too good. I keep spending my money here!! Looking at the menu you might think it a bit on the pricey side, but honestly worth spending a bit more. The chicken is always melt-in-your-mouth tender. The lamb… wow. My go-to dishes are chicken tikka methi, chicken tikka saag (extra garlic), and chicken tikka or lamb tikka madras. My recommendation is to pay a little extra for the tikka. The take-away service is always very quick - even during busy periods like bank hols. The only thing I would say is that I wish the takeaway pick-up would get a wireless payment machine. Cash only unfortunately. No way I’m dropping a star for that though.

Got food poisoning and was up all night. Reported to environmental health.

(Takeaway) Great food from friendly people.

Worst parrathas I ever had 🤮. Tasted very old and stale. Even the chicken tikkas were not worth at all.... There are many places around Sheffield which serves much better food at more reasonable prices. Take away prices are significantly higher than their normal prices!! And they just do takeaways now😏😏.... As you don't eat from the place, they don't need to face the unsatisfied customers served with any substandard food; that's what I feel.

Unreal food and amazing service as always. Would recommend to anyone for the most fresh and quality food

Excellent curry, tasty sauces and fresh vegetables used and it shows... not the usual tinned or frozen veg that other takeaways seem to feature. We’ve ordered a few times now and it has always impressed, staff are always helpful and will recommend new dishes to try
