Gorgeous food. Stopped in to stock up on bhajis and samosas before heading back to Wales. Make an effort to come here every time I come to Preston

We were recommended this place for some takeaway snacks. All I can say is that I The pastry was never go there again. The price compared to other places for similar items is high, but the main point is the taste and quality of the snacks we bought. The Shrikand I felt was way too thick which is ok as some like it that way. The peas Kachori was not cooked properly. The pastry was halfcooked and chewy, could have done with being fried for a bit longer. The worst was their Ras Malai. It had no flavouring and was just milk with sugar not even thickened and the Malai balls. No nuts or even cardamon or saffron. For £5, I would have expected it to be much better. The Kachori for £0.90 each were simply put, not worth it. If you are planning to go here, don't, go instead to Leicester and enjoy proper Indian food or find other places in Bolton or even Preston. Extremely disappointed.

I keep coming back to try more dishes and it never disappoints . Best food in the north and even beats most places I’ve eaten in London! Always friendly staff and quick to get seen. I always leave with a box of their delicious sweet stuff.

Love, love, love RK. We call in here whenever we’re in Preston. Just wish there was one closer to home. Had a delicious thali for lunch and bought a load of curries and bread to put in the freezer to tide us over until we come back. Fantastic food, and excellent, friendly service!

Food is nice but it's served in different size portions for some strange reasons? We ordered 2 indo platters and one of them came in a smaller plate than the other! We had the same dish a week before and it was a much bigger portion. I'm unsure how they can charge same £12 per dish and have 3 different sizes! Feedback to owner: You have recently almost doubled all your prices so at least give a better experience to customers. Food is very nice but please be more humane and not so financially focused. An extra chutney or extra table spoon of manchurian or undhiu for a customeris not going to make you go into bankruptcy . On the contrary people will be happily coming back more often and recommend to others if they liked the service!

We have been here as a family a number of times now and have never been disappointed. We have been vegetarians for about 3 years and struggle to find vegetarian restaurants. The food is absolutely delicious and the staff are really friendly even when it is busy. It is great value for money and even better that you can sit in and eat! We would definitely recommend!

I went here for dinner in the evening with a small group of friends. I would describe the dining style as no-frills, but comfortable and nothing particular to complain about. The staff seemed to be very busy and we ended up having to ask for plates/cutlery, although it wasn't a big deal for how economical the cost of the food was. We ordered a selection of starters and mains. The chilli paneer and veg. manchurian were okay, nothing remarkable, they seemed to have been reheated from the batch being sold as takeaway at the front of the shop. The dahi puri was very good and seemed freshly made. The mains were quite good, each of the vegetable side dishes ("curries") came with three piping hot and very soft rotis, probably the most homely and best rotis I have had in a UK restaurant to date. The ringan aloo shak had far too much oil (there was a pool of it in the dish), but once removed it was not an issue. The undhiyu was delicious, would love to have it again. We did not order any dessert as we were full. The fried snacks and sweets offered at the front of the restaurant for takeaway also looked quite good visually, although we did not buy any when we had gone. All in all, it is a very good restaurant, very homely in style and no frills. Above all, it is fantastic value for money and I would happily return regularly were I to be living locally.

I don't know how many times we have been here now, but it never fails to deliver/ The team are excellent even when under pressure as they were today. The menu offers Dhosas which you just dont get in most Indians. The dhosas are just like I had in India. Hubby always has the King Thali, bascially all 3 courses in one. The fact that most of the food is gluten free is such a big thing for me. The drinks are great too, with the rose falooda and mango lassi being our favourites. Highly recommend visiting.

This place can not be faulted. It is a vegetarian, alcohol free restaurant with takeaway. The service is always excellent. The menu is great, especially if you are gluten intolerant like me. There is cold and hot street foot, a wide selection of starters and mains and then comes the dhosa. I have never found an inidian outside of India that offers Dhosas and they have so many options. I always go for one of these and hubby usually goes for the King Thali basically a three course meal in one. If in Preston and you love real Indian food this is a must.

Myself and another family member bought a Groupon for RK a while ago. But because of covid, unable to use it until recently. We booked on the website as instructed. When we arrived, we were greeted and seated, and staff were very friendly. That was until we mentioned we had a groupon. We were then treated terribly, they said they weren’t making enough money on them, and didn’t really want to serve us. There was only about 6 other people in there, so we weren’t taking valuable space up. We had a very unpleasant experience, and was made to feel very unwelcome. If they have a problem with groupon, then don’t use the site, and don’t take it out on poor innocent customers, who bought the groupon in good faith. I would imagine restaurants etc, use groupon to entice customers that probably wouldn’t otherwise come. And if they enjoy their experience, they will return, and tell other people. Well I certainly won’t be returning, and won’t be recommending others to visit. RK you should be ashamed of yourselves, for the way you treated us.

Pros - nice food, reasonable prices, extremely large verity of foods and best of all they cater for vegetarians/vegan Cons - unfortunately since visiting here on two separate occasions myself and my friend both had stomach craps the next day after eating here. First time I wasn’t sure what was causing my upset stomach but had an idea what it potentially could be. I decided to give them a try again, and the next day I was bowled over in pain and taking regular trips to the toilet. I’m not sure how fresh the food is here.. I won’t be visiting anytime soon.

Excellent range of fresh vegetarian and vegan curries. Home made pakora, onion bhajis and roti are delicious. We bought curries, Dahl, rice, bread and pakora / bhajis to heat up at home. The mushroom masala and makhani Dahl were highlights but in truth, it was all good. Popular place from the number of customers eating in and buying take outs. We will be back. Highly recommended.

I went to RK sweets yesterday and was disappointed to see that their prices had gone up dramatically! They won’t even sell any savouries by weight and instead they make you pay per piece so it’s working out a lot more expensive for the customer. Also, I paid £9 for a large tub of Cabbage manchurian which made me ask them the reason for the increase in price. I was just told that their suppliers had increased their prices. But personally I don’t recall the price of cabbage/carrots having increased so much during covid! This was the take out price as lockdown means no eating in. I don’t think increasing prices to make up for the lack of customers during lockdown is very ethical. The worst thing is the quality has changed. Those manchurian balls tasted completely dry and I had never experienced poor quality like this in over 5years of being a RK Customer.I hope the management improves the quality and reconsider their prices in future.

Been living in Malaysia for nearly 10 years and moved back to UK a year ago. I wanted something that tasted like real Indian food and found this bad boy, absolutely superb and exactly like it was in Georgetown, Penang. Literally can't wait to go and have masala dosa again. Value for money is brilliant too.

This was our first RK Dining takeaway following recommendations and we were not disappointed. We had a fairly complex order but the phone booking was taken in a very professional manner and the delivery was made exactly when requested. The food itself was very tasty and plenty enough to last us for two meals. It was also nice to eat something other than the usual Indian fare and we thoroughly enjoyed it. One environmental comment - the Thali's came in their own individual containers. Neat, but used a lot of plastic.

Always amazing food and service. Used to have a shop near my house in Bolton where I used to go couple of times a week and I am so sad it has closed down. Therefore we drive all the way to Preston now to get the food and it is worth every bit. Owner thanked me for my service at the NHS on my visit yesterday and we got 10% discount. I’ll always be going there and it’s my go to vegetarian restaurant. Food is so flavourful and it’s very much affordable.

We tried this place for the first time yesterday for a delivery, it was excellent!To begin with the person I spoke to on the phone ( Kish - apologies if spelt incorrectly) was super helpful, nothing was too much trouble, he is a great frontman for any business. I am vegetarian and my partner is not, he likes spicy and hot, I don’t like food too hot, so I was grateful for some helpful advice. We both absolutely loved what we ordered and there was loads of it. Cannot recommend highly enough, it also came within the specified time and was plenty warm enough. There was an extra delivery charge as we are outside the 4 mile radius but it was well worth it and the meals are such good value anyway. We will be ordering again soon!Thank you!

Bought some varieties of Bombay mix and some punjabi samosas which were nice. We have not eaten the undhyu yet this is for tomorrow, looks lovely. My only disappointment was the mushroom masala which usually is delicious however this time the onions and peppers were very large pieces and there were hardly any mushrooms. In the past the mushrooms were the main ingredient which you would expect, please can we go back to that and also maybe chop the onions and peppers in slices rather than large chucks. Very impressed with the social distancing arrangements.

Recently visited with a large group of friends, booked ahead and they were very accomadating. There is a vast menu with a large variety of food on it, I had the Traditional Thali, it's a large dish of 3 Currys 3 breads, 3 fried and 3 sweets. Food tasted excellent and brilliant value for sheer size of portions. Others we were with ordered individual items and these were again huge portions of great tasting food. Staff all very friendly and even went out of the way to explain some of the dishes. All round excellent place to eat would definitely go again and would definitely recommend to any looking for indian food in Preston!

An all in one Indian Guajarati cafe, sweet shop and take-away. As I recall it started as a corner shop on Saint Georges Road with much of its business on outside catering, many years ago. Of Indian heritage and coming from Nairobi, I still remember the same flavours of my mum’s and neighbour’s cooking. Over the years I have mainly taken large orders away to freeze at home and eat as and when I fancied a particular dish. Some of the tastes are extremely difficult to describe; believe me, some of the subtleties of asafoetida, tamarind and even a pinch of sugar can tease the pallet. The range is extensive and includes: savouries sweets and curries you will be hard-pressed to find anywhere in the UK. However, are the chefs getting complacent? Apart from Bombay potatoes and dahls, almost all curries are now served swimming in oil. Bhindi masala (Okra), for example, came oozing with oil to the extent that as you wrap a chapatti piece around a mouthful the oil drips across the table. Such vegetables will hold the oil in its tubular cavities and hence are usually dry stir fried. I believe it is time to review as I tell them each time I visit.Come on guys. Don't destroy the dishes with oil. Watery or dry is much healthier and enjoyable. I don't want to start cooking at home on a regular basis.

What a find, definitely my favourite place in Preston! The choice is absolutely unbelievable, you could probably come here every day for a year and not have two meals the same. The price is very easy on the wallet and the staff are fantastic, waiting staff usually ask if you're enjoying your meal but not many mean it and these guys really seem interested. They also advise you how to save money when you come in, whether it's pointing out the specials (which are great value for money) or even advising you not to order more than you can eat for fear of offending Annapurna, the Godess of food - see I've even learned something new! If you're vegetarian or vegan, living in a city with very few vegetarian restaurants, which Preston unfortunately is, it's a complete no brainer to pay a visit. However, if you are an omnivore you're still going to be spoilt for choice and definitely won't miss your chicken tikka. This is genuinely the only place in the UK where I've eaten food that reminded me constantly of eating in India, even down to the bottle of Thumbs Up and for that I definitely give this place a big thumbs up!

We popped in for lunch and enjoyed every minute of it. The friendly and helpful staff explained what the dishes were - some we were familiar with- and recommended some for us. We went for the Thalis - everything we chose was delicious . The atmosphere in the cafe was lovely with a real mix of clientele and all ages. We will definitely be back here before long - the dhosas looked very tempting . Parking is easy in the large free car park behind the shop and the prices are incredibly reasonable. Well worth a visit if you are in the area .

We ordered our food ahead of a large que the card machine was not working so my husband went to cash he was 2 mins. We assumed the order would stil have gone through because normally we pay when we leave anyway. The guy cleaned 3 tables including ours and by that time he received cash for the food and then went onto serve the rest of the que. We waited and waited for the food to come out the entire que of people behind us had recieved their food even people that had just sat down. We were still waiting to be given our food then we complained we were told that the order was only put through once he had received the cash. I explained that that would not have explained why people who had just sat down had also been given their food. We immediately received part of our order but then had to question where the rest of the order was. We were told it was definitely coming. We waited and waited it finally came. Did not taste very nice. We ordered mogo chips and 2 dahi puris. That's all we wanted. A waste of a what should have been a pleasant lunch experience due to poor customer service. Don't go here as it can be hit or miss. Never consistent service or food.

Went to use a Groupon voucher that we have purchased in the past with no issues. This time, as soon as they saw the voucher the staff became very disinterested and rude. We advised that we wanted take out and they said we'd have to talk to the manager as the deal wasn't for take out. We tried to explain that we'd done that before with no issues but they walked off. They then talked between themselves about us without actually speaking to us. The manager continued serving other customers and ignored us. In the end we just walked out. Terrible terrible service. No wonder they have to offer discounts. We will certainly not be returning again, as a direct result of their attitudes.

Take my word for it, the food at RK is sumptuous. Simply my favourite food in Preston, RK offers a range of vegetarian/vegan authentic Indian dishes and some irresistible Indo-Chinese flavours. The 'Gobi Manchurian' vegetable balls served with 'Hakka Noodles' is my absolute favourite. If you choose the takeaway option, your food will be conveniently provided in microwavable containers, ready to ping back at home. This jewel in Preston's crown is craftily hidden in the ghetto of Plungington, with a free car park located to its rear. Oh and the price? It's cheap as chips. Staff are only too happy to navigate you through the delicious maze of spices on offer. Be careful though, this is the heroin of the palate: to try it once is to become addicted!

Called in three months ago to buy some vegetarian curry and some deep fried stuffed chili peppers. To cut a long story short I had to wait for about four minutes while I was the only customer in the take out section. I stood there with the vegetarain curry on the counter top in front of me. After this very long time a member of staff, who had seen me there for the entire time came over and said "is anybody serving you ?" SHE KNEW THAT NOBODY WAS !! I asked for some stuffed deep fried peppers and pointed to the ones I wanted to be told "these are the ones that you want" and then was served with some different ones. Then came the time to pay. I am implying nothing, but you can't see the till and you have no idea what, if anything has been rung up on it. I used to love this place, but it has become way too challenging. Sadly, I'll not be going back again any time soon

Visited RK sweets this evening. As usual there was ample choices of food, we opted for Cassava chips and Dahi Puri for staters and Pav Bhaji for mains. The food was nice and hot, the only one comment is even though the Cassava chips were piping hot I would have liked more spices sprinkled on as they just lakefront flavour. It was certainly busy the tables were all full. Credit to the staff as they work very hard and are pleasant with it.

Can't fault this place, Have reached this place several time nearing the closing time but the staff still accommodate us.

Second visit here. We absolutely love it. The food is delicious, staff are friendly and very helpful and it’s very reasonably priced. My daughter now wants to visit India! Well worth the journey down from Newcastle!!

We frequently visit this incredible eatery situated in the slightly less incredible Plungington Road. RK Dining, you never fail to amaze us! In terms of price, the establishment is very reasonable and the portion sizes are generous. The staff are friendly and knowledgable about specific dietary requirements. The service is always swift and during more busy times, the staff give out free masala chai; a lovely gesture. Although I am not vegetarian myself, I visit often with my vegan nephew, and am always pleasantly surprised by how tasty vegetarian meals can be. Overall we always have an overwhelmingly pleasant experience here. God bless RK Sweets - Best food in Preston

This place is fantastic. They have lots of vegan options on the menu that are clearly labelled and the staff are very knowledgeable on all dietary needs such as gluten free and vegan. The customer service is good. Alec who works there is very knowledgeable on the vegan options so he’s great to speak to if you have any queries. The value for money is fab and the food is fresh and authentic.

Looks a bit shabby and run down from the outside but my boyfriend and I enjoyed a delicious meal here. We ordered way too much food, excellent portion size and value for money. Could feed a family of four for £20 easy. Plenty of vegan choices, menu is huge, everything was fresh, well-spiced and really great. Server was very helpful and informative about the menu and helped us order and get the best value for money.

I absolutely love this place, I have been a couple of times now and have nothing negative to say at all! The food is fantastic, tasty, wholesome, and filling, and best of all amazing value. The staff are attentive and knowledgeable and always willing to help/ advise if the customer is unsure.

I first discovered this place in mid 2016. Since then, it has become a favourite place that I keep returning to. It has very authentic Asian (read Indian) vegetarian food that will make you drool! Run by an Indian Gujarati family, yes, the very same that are globally famous for cuisine that sounds like ammunition ( khakra, fafda, thepla, papdi, gathiya, pattice, and what not ), this outlet is a mix of a mini supermarket (with ready to eat foods) and a cafe (where they will serve you snacks, full meals, dessert and got and cold drinks).

Me and my boyfriend come here all the time, the food is delicious and always consistent- much better than any curry we’ve had in Preston before

Ate in at the canteen area, order a steel thali same with my boyfriend. It was brilliant more than enough food so make sure you go on an empty stomach. So much variety there was nothing I didn't like. My boyfriend got different things in his steel thali but I thought was a good thing as we could try each others. We are regulars here as we buy a lot of the food from the deli side but really glad I tried the eat in option will definitely be returning and bringing friends and family! You really don't miss the meat in the meal either would be great for vegetarians.

Trying vegetarian food tonight. Decided to give RK Sweets', of Plungington Road, take away. Most authentic Indian food Ive experienced since I last left Jammu and Kashmir for Himachal Pradesh. Will most probably try again, everything delicious, different, and more than enough for the two of us, a good family feast for under £20.

A Nostalgic Place! - The Hospitality shown each time I’ve come has left me reminding myself to write positively on here. The food tastes great but also leaves you feeling great after each meal. Healthy and Vegan/Vegetarian friendly.

Ordered food in advance. Arrived to pick up but excuse i was given was that management opened late. Very disapointed as ordered could not be fulfilled

Unbelievably small portions!!! It takes ages for the food to come when eating in. My advice to owner: Stop being so stingy with portion size! Even kids would still be hungry with your £7 thaalis. The day someone else opens a similar food restaurant... you will be sorry !

We love this cafe/sweet shop and try to pop in if we are in the area. They have the biggest selection of snacks/nibbles that we have ever seen in an Indian, home style curries and a very large selecton of Indian sweets. If eating in, we particularly like the RK Special Chaat where you get 3 nibbles (usually samosa, katchori and petish) surrounded by chick pea curry and topped with raw onions, their amazing corainder sauce, sev, etc. They also have 3 type of Dhosa. Plus Thali at an amzing price so you can try lots. Take aways are very reasonable, about £3 per large portion.

I was craving chat and was excited to find a vegetarian indian resturant in this part of the world. We enjoyed authentic Indian food in Preston. Staff were helpful and offered to take order on phone as our visit was close to last order time(7pm sunday and resturant/shop open till 8pm) .Pav bhaji,vada pav,sec puri and sweets satisfied the craving. Being pani puri lover I would have preferred it to be spicy and sour not sweet but other tasty dishes made up well so overall experience was still great.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. The food was good but took time to come. The place could do with more cleanliness in the dining area.

I visit RK very frequently with my family and I have to say their food is excellent. I am not sure why negative reviews have been left as I really enjoy visiting them. The dishes are very tasty, affordable and I love that everything is vegetarian as there are no other fully vegetarian Indian places nearby. The food tastes fresh and their take out options are good too. I don't think there is a dish on the dine in menu that I would not recommend. The only problem I had noticed is that sometimes the servers are rather slow when it comes to bringing a jug of water when you request one. Other than that I have had no problems and I have recommended many people to visit and they have also loved the food. I will include some images of the dishes we have sampled previously.

What a find this place is! The staff are really friendly and the food is amazing. There is a lovely chap behind the counter who is obviously very passionate about Indian cuisine and helped us choose what to eat. We had a mini banquet and it was all delicious! Would highly recommend this place for a relaxed tapas style meal.

Have been going here for a few years and has been pretty good. However, the last 3 times have been awful. Everything they we order is just too spicy, even the tikka marsala (which is usual too mild for me) was too hot to eat. We've checked the level of spice each time but still comes too hot. We like a medium spiced curry, but everything for the last 6 months is just too hot to eat. Also, had the korma for the first time tonight which was just coconut and sugar, it was awful. Afraid this will be the last time we go now, not throwing £50+ in the bin anymore.

The food here is fantastic, but for dining-in, the atmosphere is lacking and the service even more so.
