Raviz in Guildford

You don't need to go to London to have an excellent Indian dinner. Worth it to stop by, I'll be back.

Food was just really well put together. Elaborate dishes but well balanced.

Excellent meal. Really tasty. Probably the best Indian curry I have ever had.

Hidden gem for Indian cuisine. Really authentic taste with a modern presentation.

A wonderful restaurant. We’ve been twice now as the first time was a great experience. The food is great, service friendly and fast. The restaurant itself has great decor. Would highly recommend.

Most definitely, without a shadow of doubt, the best Indian cuisine anywhere in Guildford ... Surrey and probably the whole wide world.

Great meal! Really high quality food and service, not your average Indian restaurant. Love it here.

Great food - one of the better Indian restaurants in the area with unique dishes

Amazing, unique Indian food. We will definitely be coming again.

Delicious food and lovely relaxed atmosphere.

Great to find a place locally that does fabulous Dosa

Really great food, service and overall restaurant! Would recommend to anyone in Guildford who likes indian food

Great food and excellent service, they exceeded my expectations. Honestly, I only expected good food, as it was highly recommended by my friends, and true enough, the food was very good and the services was above and beyond. One of Guildford's gem as they are one of the best and flavourful restaurants that I have been into. Despite being fully booked, they kindly found a table for us. (Lesson learned, we'll always have an advance booking online) All the staffs were extremely kind, we’ll definitely return. Many thanks!”

Raviz offers a really good menu with a few recognisable dishes and a few new names. The service is exemplary, with a few interesting extras thrown in, between courses, and all this at a very reasonable cost (for 2025). Not your average Indian restaurant. Thank you.

Once again, a simply terrific evening. The menu is larger than we remember, but the quality was as good as ever. Our go to restaurant in Guildford for a celebratory meal.

Back again to Raviz - our go to celebratory restaurant in Guildford. A larger menu than we remember but the quality is superb still. Definitely worth the price. Thoroughly recommended

Really good food and different to the usual Indian. Will keep coming back. Vindaloo is how it should be, super tasty, not just heat

Excellent food and lovely service. Need to book at the weekend. The menu is brilliant and varied. We dropped in and they managed to accommodate us on a busy night.

Best curry in Guildford by far. Very high quality ingredients and wonderful flavours. Highly recommended! Best curry in Guildford by far. Very high quality ingredients and wonderful flavours. Highly recommended!

Fabulous meal, can’t recommend highly enough x

First class food, the perfect dosa… 💯 South Indian! Very good service, big shout out to Aksa for her friendly service.

I spent 6 months travelling around India and this restaurant is the next best thing to actually being there! What a gem 💎 Also, they make a mean Irish coffee which was the perfect way to end the meal!

After visiting many Indian restaurants in my lifetime, this is a cut above the rest. Attention to detail, authentic flavours, and excellent service. Highly recommend!

A great Indian restaurant with a good selection of dishes. The food was delicious, with a good variety on offer and all freshly made. The presentation of the food was excellent. The staff were friendly and the chef even popped down to meet the diners, which was a lovely personal touch. The decor is sophisticated. I highly recommend.

Exceptional modern Indian food. We really struggled to choose from the menu, it all looked so good, and every dish we had was delicious.

Very expensive for what it is, even other more posh restaurants doesn't charge this much for a small potion.

The service was genuinely fantastic, we received a lot of freebies from the chef and all were delicious, and they helped divulge the recipe, really had a lovely time.

Beautifully presented and crafted dishes. Perfect

Excellent! Would definitely visit again!

First time here. Top rate food and service decent prices

Delicious food here. Don’t expect the usual Indian menu as it was all a bit different, and not hundreds of dishes on offer. Genuinely, food was very tasty. Would definitely return.

Really excellent imaginative food with tremendous service. Thank you!

Always fantastic, amazing food, you MUST visit!

This is a very special place to share a fantastic meal with great service from super friendly staff that is unbelievably tasty. Cannot recommend highly enough!

A true experience. The food is both inventive, full of flavour and brings some classics to life. The whole table of 5 concluded; Delicious ! It was refreshing to have 4 different, and new to me, condiments, not the standard mango chutney. Thank you and hopefully see you soon.

A wonderful experience all round. Attentive staff and tasty food

Had a lovely dinner at Raviz – the staff were super friendly and welcoming. We had the chicken biriyani, mughlai chicken, and chilli garlic naans – all absolutely delicious. Highly recommend!

What a find! You’ve never tasted Indian food quite like this. The flavours are sublime. The Manchurian Lamb was so good. The atmosphere and service was also brilliant. Very reasonably priced for the experience also.

By far and away the best Indian food I've come across outside London. Really fantastic restaurant.

Wonderful menu, Indian fine dining but with a very relaxed atmosphere.

Yet another delicious meal at Raviz. Tried the pork vindaloo main this time and it was divine. Wonderful combination of spices. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend

Not your average Indian meal, but definitely a cut above the rest! A beautiful meal and a superb setting!! Thank you 🙏🏻

Great food, excellent service, something different.

A bit special. Not your run of the mill Indian by any means.

Delicious food, very friendly staff and free pani puri appetizers makes it even better!

Excellent place. Highly recommend!

Wow - how refreshing to come to a very different Indian restaurant- such a lovely atmosphere and the food was of a very high standard… recommend the prawns and the lamb…bravo we will be back

Service is great. The presentation of food is very good. Multiple things related to this: 1. They started with complimentary hot soup (rasam style/ daal). It was a very small cup, but definitely tasted very good. 2. Then they brought in one complimentary golgappa, marked as "good for digestion". 3. Lastly, they brought in a compressed paper towel, and poured hot water on it, which made it expand. Neat trick! Food was decent. I wouldn't say it was out of the world, not nothing to complain about either. I tried the mix bhaji (pakoras), and it was okay. Again, the plate looked nice, but I was expecting more like "mixed pakoras", but it seemed to be onion pakoras only. For the main course, I ordered the eggplant kadai along with chili garlic naan. Lived the chili garlic naan. The eggplant dish was okay. Maybe, if I get a chance to try other dishes, I will upgrade my review to 5 stars for the food. Willing to try another time.

If you want a great departure from the standard dishes on offer at an Indian restaurant, try this place !

Excellent service. Aksa really looked after us!

A really superb meal. Fab dosa, authentic vindaloo and some unusual dishes.

Excellent food and wonderful service - will be coming back!

Lovely food with friendly service

Great food, atmosphere and lovely staff. Highly recommend

i probably ordered unwisely but my lamb mapass was less than than enjoyable. it sounded good but not a path i would go down again. might try again with a different main course. The restaurant is pleasant enough and prices ok.

Super friendly and absolutely delicious food

Such fantastically fresh Indian food, obviously quality ingredients and the most authentic Indian food I’ve had in ages.

Sensational food, great service, relaxed atmosphere. I would highly recommend Raviz for a very high standard curry for any occasion.

Wonderful find. So glad we gave it a try. Very different from any other Indian restaurant. A very delicious experience and amazing staff.

Superb. Best in Guildford. Thank you for a fantastic evening/meal.

Food was excellent ! Service was as well, almost over the top. The lamb and duck were both excellent - comfy chairs, really enjoyable meal

Excellent food and service. Staff were very friendly and good ambience. Aksa was very attentive as were all the stafff. Extra course were a nice touch.

Menu descriptions do not do this place justice. Delicious food with real depth of flavour and attentive service

Delicious good, fresh and flavoursome. Big portions and service was immaculate. Could not recommend more highly.

Amazing food. Nice interesting & varied menu. Really lovely staff and atmosphere

Update 2024 A return visit for the first time in a long while. Food was very average. Service was good but brisk. However, the state of the restaurant left something to be desired and I can see why their hygiene rating was downgraded. Update 2022 Still love the food (when we can get it) but it’s absolutely impossible to make a booking. The phone is never answered and emails don’t get a response. I’m tempted to try a seance and see if that gets a better result. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Four of us had a delightful lunch here. We were offered and accepted the thali which was a superb selection of dishes. Service was quick and it is not over priced. My only (minor) criticism is that the food was all a little sweeter than I would have liked it but this reflects the regional style of cooking that the proprietors are familiar with.

Excellent food and service. A great find

First time - really impressed with quality of service and food - left feeling very full and incredibly satisfied 😁

Amazing restaurant. Excellent food.

Fantastic curry. Bit different to your local but homely nonetheless

Not too loud but comfortable atmosphere. Good food as always and lovely staff/ service.

Lovely meal with great staff. Thank you for a delicious dinner

It is literally a mystery how so few people know about this place (and we’re selfishly glad) but if anywhere deserves a Michelin star, it’s Raviz. Treat yourself - you will not be disappointed.

Thank you to the team for fitting us in even without reservation. Delicious food, good price and amazing free house made white chocolate with mint flavours.

My new favourite restaurant in Guildford! The food was ridiculously flavourful and there were lots of little surprises brought out throughout the meal. The staff were also lovely and very efficient. Can’t wait to come back!

Lovely evening with great friends and friendly staff

Food was absolutely phenomenal. I am actually a bit apprehensive about giving a good review because I dont want more people coming here and I want to keep it all for myself!

First time diners. Really enjoyed food and service. Taser menu fantastic as tried things that we would not normally choose. Definitely recommend and will be coming back!

Went for a friends birthday and the service and food was outstanding. The best curry I’ve ever had and the menu included so many dishes I have never tired before in any other Indian restaurant. Will definitely be returning!!! Also returned for the taster menu for Valentine's day and was absolutely fantastic! Every mouthful a delight, similar to 5 star restaurants in London. Thank you so much!

An amazing dinner to celebrate our son's 12th birthday!

Had the Valentine's tasting menu (with the meat dishes replaced with fish) and had a lovely time! Favourite was the fish peera stuffed in banana chilli

Such a delightful evening. The food was delicious and the service was very kind. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I love this Indian restaurant. The food is the best South Indian cousin I had with touches of free tasters and palet cleansers between your dishes. Service is excellent with attention to the detail. Smaller size of the restaurant makes the atmosphere more intimate. And bonus is that it is kind to your bank account too.

Fantastic food, atmosphere and service.

Great food and friendly service

The starters were fabulous as were the little extra bites between courses. The main courses were good but a little overwhelming served in a bowl, altogether making it strange to add rice and side dishes. Would rather have had it to the side and selected a little at a time. Very expensive wine.

Very nice but toilets could do with a refresh.

Don’t eat the the cloth that looks like a mint

Always beautiful and aromatic food served with a smile

Friends took us here - Guildford is usually out of our radar for eating but this place is well worth a detour. It’s refreshingly different to more ‘standard’ Indian food/restaurants - from the start the service was attentive, the atmosphere relaxed and the food was great (delicious and also different). Highly recommend.

Every time we dine here the food and service is amazing! Absolutely love Raviz, possibly the best restaurant in Guildford.

Absolutely exquisite and unexpected,certainly not your usual Indian restaurant. This was a great dining experience the staff were helpful and guided us through the menu. I think there is now life before this meal and life after this meal, highly recommended.

The last time I visited Raviz was around 4 years ago so I was a little worried it might not still be as good but I was very pleasantly surprised. The food was incredible! Soon after we sat down we were presented with a lovely little cup of a tomato based soup that really delivered on flavour. We then had chicken three ways ways and the chicken lollipops for starter which were so tender and very tasty. We then had a lovely surprise of a pani puri each before our main course of lamb biriani and king prawn curry came out. We didn’t have room for desserts but the meal was nicely topped off with a small homemade chocolate. This isn't your run of the mill curry, it’s more fine dining but with decent portions. I can’t believe I’d left it so long to revisit and definitely won’t be waiting so long again before my next visit. Thank you Raviz for a truly delightful meal!!!

It is an easy to miss location hidden down Jefferies Passage between High St & North Street. The whole ambiance is upmarket Indian. I only looked at the first page of the menu which had maybe a dozen interesting looking dishes, so I can’t say if there were more options. On the other hand, I feel it says a lot that I had not seen these before and would happily have tried half of them. We were a party of five and everyone enjoyed their dishes. It cost £30 each basically for the one dish and poppadoms. I thought the food was excellent and will certainly go back

Amazing place! Staff were super helpful and food was to die for!

Very delicious food with interesting dishes. High end Indian restaurant. Very nice staff.

Heel fijn restaurant, heel lekker eten, aangenaam kader, vlotte en zeer vriendelijke bediening. Een aanrader in Guildford!!

What a great place to eat out. Fantastic food and service. W. ell re omnended

Fantastic meal, delightful staff, lovely setting and reasonably priced. Not your average Indian restaurant experience. Highly recommend! And don't be afraid to try the goats cheese ice cream!

Food here is a significant cut above the average Indian fare and given the quality it is good value as well. The room is small and is looking a little tired but that is more than made up for by the food and the friendly and efficient service. Often rated the best restaurant in Guildford and I can understand why. BTW....Indian food would not usually be my first choice as it increasingly does not agree with me but the food at Raviz does not seem to have that issue.
