Very tasty food, the staff were attentive and friendly, especially the proprietor. The restaurant had nice decor and a good atmosphere. Definitely recommend eating here

Super Really great food Really friendly and helpful service too Will return

The best curry house in Colchester by far. Quality of food is great, portions sizes are generous. Piping hot food. The staff are very attentive and cater to juniors. Only thing that could be improved is the “shoulder to shoulder” capacity. You’re located far too close to other diners.

Amazing night out for dinner. Food was incredible, service was amazing, definitely recommend.

My friend and I love Rhim Jhim, the staff and the top quality food. We were going to use the takeaway service this evening and priced up 3 mains 2 spl rice poppadoms and 1 nan. When we worked out it came to over £76 without delivery charge and with no weekend discount...is expensive. We therefore did a local comparison with the lion of Bengal and Maharani one came out £23 less and the other £25 and discount is applied to the Bengal. I appreciate that Rhim Jhim having won awards is very nice food. However there is only a certain price it is worth. Therefore we are taking our custom elsewhere, sorry Rhim Jhim.

Absolutely brilliant little place to eat, the whole family had a blast. Amazing food and the waiter went above and beyond to make it a great meal. Also helped with allergies which is highly appreciated. Would 100% come back. A shame we don’t live local. Would give 6 stars if I could.

The restaurant is not the nicest to look at inside or out. We really liked the friendly service though. Food taste was just ok for me and my partner. Certainly for the price the portions were good value. Not memorable for me as a BIR. But good for the locals.

Outstanding meal in the restaurant but really deserve 6 stars for their attentive customer service.

First Class! My family dine at this fabulous restaurant a few times a year. This is owing to the wonderful food and service. Today, we were delayed by trains from London. The restaurant still accommodated us although we were late. They were kind and understanding about our late arrival. We were given a great table and it accommodated older members of the family perfectly. The food? We love it! I cannot describe how delicious the curries are...just one word: exceptional! The service was brilliant. The waiters were attentive to all our needs. The birthday surprises we received at the end were totally beyond all our expectations. Furthermore, the waiters made our family celebrations special as a result. We left very happy and of course we will return! Thank you again to all the staff at Rim Jhim Indian Restaurant. You were superb! One of the best dining experiences!

Loved our experience and the food was delicious!!

Amazing food great service with a smile ! Definitely recommend coming here :) staff are so friendly and accommodating

Best Indian restaurant in Colchester! Came here for my dad’s birthday and so happy we booked. Food was amazing and the staff were super friendly, especially our waiter. Made us feel very welcomed and gave excellent service. Our waiter helped with suggesting vegan options and the Rogan Josh was our favourite. We will definatly be back again soon! Thank you :)

Food always spot on Great customer service

Fabulous food! Staff were great! Will come again!

Absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend king prawn massala. Balti and naan is impeccable.

We had a takeaway a few weeks ago which we thought was quite disappointing. The portion size was great, which is good considering the price point. The food was however pretty bland, the Madras wasn't even remotely spicy and the chicken in it was tough and chewy. Needless to say we won't be back.

My Son's 50th Birthday and they were very accommodating we all enjoyed the meal

Went here on 31/1/25 for the first time. Met at entrance by polite waiter who took my jacket. We were shown out table. Our drinks and food order orders were soon taken. Each coarse was was delivered at appropriate time. The food was delicious, the service first class. The best Indian meal I've ever had. I shall return soon.

Really good food and attentive service. There was some confusion with the online booking, but staff accommodated as soon as possible. It was very busy and the food was excellent.

Incredible service I arranged a last minute birthday surprise and was given on the house kindly by the company, food was amazing. Happy birthday girl

Food was amazing and the service was great!

Although it does not look much from the outside the food and speed of service were amazing. This was our 16th different curry house as part of an essex curry club and it will be number 1. It could do with a lick of paint and it felt a bit squashed but this was overshadowed by the amazing food and service.

Didn't dine in the restaurant I had a takeaway worst curry I have had it was cold and small portions and very over priced got told good things about rim jhim but I should have ordered from somewhere else my son doesn't eat curry so had the chicken and chips the chicken was a battered chicken burger you would get from ice land for £1 and there was a toddler size handful of chips in a small plastic box and that cost around £13

Amazing food, very tasteful, staff members were very helpful and friendly, good presentation in the restaurant and also the food.

We were blown away by the vibrant flavors and creative dishes at this restaurant. The fresh ingredients were evident in every bite. The staff was kind and attentive, and the decor was warm and inviting. It’s a place we’ll definitely be returning to soon.

Rumel, Ahmed and Gibon 5 stars for customer service! Food amazing , best byriani I had in 13 yrs in England! Definitely be back!

I had a nice experience here , the food was amazing , there are many dishes to choose from and they are very tasteful, various spices used which is very good. The staff members were respectful and very open to explaining what the dishes meant and what they contained.

I couldn’t stop myself sharing this review as we had the food from here for the first time and it was truly amazing. Especially the people who were serving was totally awesome make us feel special. I must say best Indian food in Colchester so far. I have tried others as well but never had such authentic flavours. So, definitely recommended 😊👍

Absolutely wonderful food and service! The menu offers a variety of delicious options, and everything we tried was delicious This is by far our favorite Indian restaurant. The staff are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accommodating, making every visit a delightful experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic and enjoyable Indian dining experience.

If you want an Indian in Colchester, look no further. The food and staff were outstanding.

Lovely meal, very tasty and our waiter Suleman could not have been kinder. Fantastic. Evening.

Excellent meal…! Tasty food and great value for money! Amazing staff as well…we shall return..! Thank you

Lovely service and amazing food great place to eat! Had a lovely chuckle with the owner really made our trip! We will 100% be back

Superb food! And excellent customer service. Been here on several occasions now and it only seems to get better, will absolutely be back again!

Absolutely fantastic, you won't find a better curry. Have been several times and will be most definitely be returning.

The food is amazing and the service was excellent. Can’t fault at all :-)

1st time at Rim Jhim Spice. Excellent curry, even better service. Zara curry was lovely! Will be returning soon!!

Just lovely thanks all Nice night mid week Good food And we got a free drink so thank you very much. The atmosphere was absolutely lovely in here tonight.

First class award winning food. Good friendly staff

Brilliant service everytime we come , amazing food and suleman was an amazing server !

Suleman and his team are amazing, such good service from the start, they cannot do enough for you the second you get in! BEST Indian ever !!!!! We come monthly for a girls night highly recommend :)

Very yummy food, extremely friendly staff, will come again

My first time at a curry house and we were welcome with open arms. What a lovely special evening it was, the service and food was spectacular. Thank you so much, we will definitely be coming back. Happy new year xxx

Amazing food as always! Service is great too. Can’t beat it

Paid £70 just to get the worst stomach ever! Waited over an hour for the food and 20 minutes for them to bring the drinks over. Korma tasted okay but left me fighting more my life on the toilet. Misses had a chicken madras and it was the most bland madras she's had that lacked any flavour. Servers are about as useful as a chocolate teapot, constantly bumping into you, slow and make no sense when they're talking to you. They had customers coming in for collect orders who had been waiting for 2 over 2 hours. You honestly couldn't pay me to go back to this place.

Absolutely incredible! The best Indian we’ve had, with impeccable service!

The best Indian we’ve ever had. Not the cheapest but definitely worth the extra cost! You really do pay for what you get. 10/10

Fantastic service and fantastic food. Will return

Highly recommend. Fantastic food with fantastic service.

Amazing food, amazing staff, highly recommend.

I came all the way from Alabama, USA to visit family. Amazing food with lovely staff, would highly recommend!

Lovely food and great atmosphere

Great place and great service! Love the guys here, they always give us a great time!

Excellent curry and the young man who served us was so lovely and helpful, will definitely be visiting again

Came for a Birthday celebration, and it did not disappoint. Great food, great service and a lovely atmosphere. We’ll be back!

Delicious food and great service! Will come again!

Wonderful service when eating in, very friendly and catered to all.

Very good service and excellent food! Please go!

Great service while eating in, waiter was friendly and funny, would visit again

Jim provided an excellent service

Very nice place will definitely come again . Going to book the elvis night . Looking forward to that 😜

Superb food, great service, friendly people. No other curry house in colchester compares.

Second time in the restaurant and great service, food and atmosphere both times. Islam was our waiter and was great.

Food and service was incredible, definitely come again.

We had an amazing dinner tonight, just as we expected! We always love visiting here when we're in from Australia, and tonight was no exception. The food was delicious, the service was great, and the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and relaxed. This place is a must-visit!

Lovely food Had a really good meal for Christmas get together Highly recommend the cheese naan!!!

Great food , friendly and great service

Food and service were incredible. Really friendly staff and were so attentive!

Absolutely amazing, highly recommend the Zara, their house dish. It’s soooo nice! Great service too.

Jibon and Ahmed were amazing tonight, the food atmosphere and experience was amazing. Great night

Food was nice, a bit oily for my taste but overall very good. We were 4 and they gave us a table in which we barely fit. I would have liked to have more space to eat more comfortable. Service was amazing. They don't have any kind of lassi which I found it weird. Drinks menu is mainly focused in alcohol.

Great food, brilliant service. I will be back

I can’t decide if it’s a good or a bad thing living 25 meters from the best Indian in Colchester. Taken over from yak and yeti as our favourite. Delicious food and great service. Cheers

Atmosphere was great, food was greater

This is our favourite place to have an Indian meal. The all you can eat on Sunday is brilliant. Lots of variety, including lamb, chicken and vegetable curries and lots of sides. Very reasonable and friendly service too.

Fantastic service, food & atmosphere - what more could you want ?

Lovely lunch at the buffet, so kind to our small children ☺️. We’ll be back!

Another fantastic meal, always hot , fresh & tasty. Highly recommend. The best in Colchester by far. Staff are always friendly and welcoming.

Been here so many times in this restaurant and always happy with the delicious food and waitress / waiters are very nice and professional. Will always recommend this restaurant.

Best Indian restaurant I’ve been to outside of India. Top service

I ordered a lamb dansak and it’s the best sauce I’ve had along with the garlic rice

Lovely food and fantastic service! Our favourite curry house :)

Lovely food and lovely service, will definitely be coming back again!

Staff incredibly helpful and friendly.. Went above and beyond ..Will definately be going back

The best Indian restaurant in Essex! The staff are incredibly friendly and approachable, always ready to assist with a smile. Unsure of what to order, I asked for recommendations, and the waiter was more than happy to guide me through the menu. Their suggestions did not disappoint—the food was absolutely fantastic! I highly recommend this gem of a restaurant for an unforgettable dining experience.

My partner and I are both vegan and often have Indian food as it caters for vegan options. We went into the restaurant directly and the owner spoke directly to us about all of the food we could have (and cooked it specially to make sure it was vegan). The food was delicious! We highly recommend for anyone who is vegan and wants great Indian food. I recommend going in as then you can discuss directly with the staff!
