Roochi Real Indian Cuisine in Wealden

Our local curry house always provides 10/10 service, waiting times are very swift never experience delays and we have gone every different day of the week even in busier evenings etc. All of the staff are so friendly and you can tell they take pride in the restaurant and the food they serve unlike a lot of other curry houses. The bill is normally around £45/50 for me and my partners meal this consists of a rice main side drink so is roughly £25 per person which is very reasonable and you'll think it's a bargain when you try the food! We will continue to go back like we have done for the last couple of months.

Food was delicious. The staff are all so friendly and great value for money with generous portion sizes. Highly recommend!

Great food - well priced - excellent and friendly service from the team - good atmosphere 👍

Popadums taste like butcheeks Come here if u want ur final meal

Extremely rude manager, swore and was racist, would advise everyone to stay away from this place

Extremely disappointed as booked nearly a week ago having been here before and accused of not booking when I clearly had Turned up this evening and the restaurant was empty apart from 6 people but told it was full and had emailed me that he had cancelled my booking and emailed me which he clearly hadn’t and when asked couldn’t show me the email Last time the food was good but service was frosty and put it down to the fact they were busy but not acceptable when there was no one in Stayed around here on business to go to this restaurant and had to drive and park up Def won’t use again

Don't bother booking a table as they don't care. Was told no table available for the time

Terrible service and rude staff. We booked our table for 715. We had to wait 20 minutes to be seated whilst constantly being told 2 more minutes, 2 more minutes. We ordered two drinks at the bar and I asked if we could have the drinks on the house as we'd been waiting 20 minutes. Which the barman said yes to. Once seated we had to ask 5 times to put our order in and again kept being told 2 minutes, 2 minutes. When the bill arrived I pointed out they had charged us for the free drinks. The manager completely shut me down, wouldn't let me speak and said he was the boss and if he didn't ok it the drinks weren't free. I gently tried to point out that we were going by what we had been told and that to receive complimentary drinks for a 20 minutes wait was fair. He wouldn't let me finish talking, kept talking over me and insisted we paid for the drinks. He was rude, abrasive and unpleasant. I felt so uncomfortable and it was a really unpleasant way to end what should have been a lovely anniversary dinner. WE WILL NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN. The staff at Khans are much more friendly.

Bad experience. The food was average with the lamb quite tough and the chicken dry. The worst part though was although we had booked a table for a meal we were rushed to pay after eating our mains with the waiter constantly coming to get our payment although we were clearly talking. Each time it was "no rush" and minutes later someone was back again. Felt unwelcome to stay if we weren't actually eating. Not my idea of going out for a meal. Might as well have got a takeaway...from somewhere else.

We popped out on a Wednesday to take advantage of the mid-week offer. It was so much food, we were thoroughly defeated. Great food, really helpful staff, nicely decorated place with a comfortable friendly atmosphere. We will be back.

Ordered a delivery to EG and turned up 20 minutes late, I called when 10 minutes late and a very rude man told me "its only 10 minutes late, we dont deliver to exact times" I told hime this happens many times, or it comes 30 minutes early, we once returned from the shops to find the delivery sittin on the doorstep. I said to him I found their service and his attitude very poor and that we wont use them again. He said "whatever, its your choice" unbelievable. We definitely wont order from Roochi again....

My favourite Indian restaurant in the area - great portion size, EXCEPTIONAL food and good variety of meals. Very friendly staff too

Definitely our favourite Indian restaurant. Delicious food, large portions, excellent service, great value for money

Was recommended this beautiful Restaurant years ago and now when even I’m in the area head down. Tasty food, wonderful atmosphere and the staff are incredibly welcoming. If you would like something just ask and if they can they will happily help you out. Headed again tonight, great service and lovely atmosphere

Probably the best Indian around. 15 quid on Sunday and Wednesday gets you starter main side and rice or bread. Banging

Have a broken leg, can't get around properly. Roochi manager has just delivered a huge free meal with all the trimmings. Major thanks for their kindness and great meal shared with two neighbours.

Booked a table and had to wait 25 mins for table Food not as good as last visit sadly won't be returning Offer on a Wednesday evening was drastically over booked and waiters running around like crazy not a relaxing evening at all. When we were ready to give food order waiter was rude and said you said you were ready now your not.??? Sorry sadly bit of a caged in meal at the table too Need to monitor your bookings and seem to favour people that have been before and not interested in nee customers at all

4th AUGUST 2024 ..Visited here 6 times in the last 3 months . Tonight had table booked for 5 people, had 4 staff staring at us all through the meals and taking plates away before we had all finished. And to finally take the piss brought the bill out before we had finished our deserts or order more drinks to finish . Spoke to manager about disgusting behaviour and service , he said they needed table...... you've lost hundreds £££ from us now 👋

Went here for a meal with friends. As always, the food and customer service were the best. My partner and I came from Billingshurst to Forest Row to have a meal here as it's the best Curry I've ever had. The atmosphere and ambience are amazing.

It was great to be back in Forest Row on our normal dog-and-house sitting duties as it meant we could eat at Roochi again! We booked a table, knowing how busy this restaurant is, particularly on Wednesdays and Sundays when the banquet is available. Like normal, we were warmly greeted by the owner, Saiful Hussain, and his friendly and attentive staff. The food was superb, still excellent value for money considering the size of the portions and quality of the food and service. Looking forward to coming back again, but that probably won't be until February next year. Thanks to Saiful and his staff for such a lovely meal and enjoyable evening.

Fantastic curry’s having spent time away from the UK this was a wonderful welcome home

Another fantastic meal at Roochi. We come here all the way from Hassocks- it is that good. We always enjoy our delicious meal, attentive service and authentic atmosphere. Highly recommend a visit.

Visited in Kune 2024 and tried the Wednesday special - eat-in only for £15 - starter, main, Two sides and a free chocolate to finish. There was enough food to fill a takeaway tray for tomorrow's dinner too. Take the staff's recommendations on what to order - you won't be disappointed ✨️

Absolutely delicious - this should have more 5 star ratings - the food is amazing and the portions are generous. The Sunday Banquet is an absolute bargain. Only £14.95 for 4 courses!

Riochi is our favourite Indian restaurant we have tried a few other restaurants but no where matches the flavours or service of Roochi...dinning in is the best quality take away is very slightly different sometimes but not that noticeable and still the best food

One of the best currys we've had. Lovely service. We were staying at the Swan at forrest row and this was just a short walk. Lovely!

Had the chicken tikka jalfrezi and I was waltzed straight to India it was like an infusion of Indian spice with kick of an Indian tiger in my gob unbelievable and very tasty! Be back for another!!

Absolutely lovely food!! love that place "and the staff is very friendly waiting to visit again .

One of the best Indian restaurants I have ever eaten in. Great food and service!

We had a table for 12 people to celebrate my husbands birthday. We all had the Sunday Banquet. The food was excellent and really good value for money. We had so much food that the staff gave us boxes to take home the extra. (Which I very much enjoyed the next day! )The staff are here attentive and we were given a complementary drink with the bill. Would highly recommend.

Typical Indian restaurant with a few Chef's specials. Popular with locals. Portion sizes big

Awful experience!!!!! 4th time to this restaurant. But tonight I am very disappointed...a very RUDE owner / chef who can't take a customer feedback on the food. Chicken tikka was dry, the rest of the dishes are warmed up in the microwave pretending it's fresh. I cook too so I know. Personally, I will comeback here again.

Gone downhill over last few months, we have been using Roochi for the last 12 years even though we have closer Indian restaurants nearby. However the previous high standards of customer service have dropped and now despite delivering to us for 9 years we are apparently out of their area. Waited almost 30 minutes beyond my pick up time yesterday, would previously been offered a drink for the delay whilst I wait or an addition to the food, nothing offered, also food order has had items missing several times and again this week. What a shame your standards are dropping, there is plenty of choice and competition around

Ordered food the food was every where splilt in the bag called told them said 3-4 mins drive will be back then called and said driver doesn't speak English, then hung up wouldn't pick up so called on another phone then said they would call the police, now I have to wait the next day and show up with there rotten food bad service bad people and I'm not having it I have ordered from surma and alot cheap and amazing service

Had an early birthday curry at lunch time 😋 it was the best curry I've had for a long time couldn't fault anything everyone's meal was perfect

Ordered online and collected at the restaurant for 20% off, collection was quick and efficient and the food was delicious!

By far the best Indian style restaurant in the South East. Literally no competition, from food quality and portions, through to service 🙂 Can not recommend enough.

Haven't found a better Indian restaurant than this. Great quality ingredients and authentic taste.

Excellent Curry House. Very friendly staff and service. Food is always superb. Highly recommended Roochi

Can't recommend this place enough. Amazing food and service. Will be back. Thank you

This was the first time of using Roochi. It was brilliant. Service and all staff were fast and really efficient. Food was incredibly good and big portions. We will be going again.

Fantastic night for 20 of us for my son in law to be's stag night. Excellent food and service. 10 out of 10

Such big portion on main dishes

We are back in Forest Row dog-and-house sitting for a few weeks whilst our friend is on holiday. We both have birthdays during this period so obviously it made sense to celebrate them at Roochi (mid-way between the two occasions). Yet again, we were warmly greeted by the boss, Saiful Hussain, and his staff who are so friendly, helpful and can't do enough for you. Every dish we had was absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection, and the portions are huge. Please remember that this is a very popular restaurant so it is advisable to book a table in advance, not forgetting that it also does take-away service as well as eat-in, so the kitchen gets very busy. Many thanks to Saiful and his staff for making us feel so welcome and feeding us so well. It is excellent value for money particularly considering the quality of the food itself. We look forward to coming back again when we're next staying in Forest Row - probably mid-July!

Having only heard amazing reviews from friends local to this restaurant for 4 years I finally managed to find time to go myself. From the moment we walked in the staff were friendly and very helpful. The food is some of the best Indian cuisine I have had. Can't wait for the return visit!

Went in after a wonderful day at lingfield races to witness possibly the best curry experience I have ever had, and I’ve had a lot of curry’s. The staff- amazing, the environment- beautiful The food- well where to start, all I can say is go and witness for yourself. Highly recommended and will be returning!

Delicious food, always incredibly tasty and fresh! Absolutely love it every single time!

THE best curry I have had. Amazing food, great atmosphere and wonderful people.

THE best curry I have had. Amazing food, great atmosphere and wonderful people. Absolutely recommend. Not only do we go there for dinner but always get takeaways! Super place and a repeat customer.

The food is fantastic and we really enjoy our meal every time we eat from Roochi. The owners are lovely :)

My favourite Indian Restaurant in the area ,The food and atmosphere are really nice ,very good service.

We are currently staying with our friend in Forest Row for the month of December whilst she recuperates from a hip replacement operation. The added bonus is that we have managed to go to Roochi twice during our stay, once just my husband and I then the second time our friend joined us. Like normal, we were warmly greeted by the boss, Saiful Hussain, and his staff who are so friendly, helpful and can't do enough for you. Every dish we had was absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection, and the portions are huge. On our second visit I left my gloves behind, and one of the staff ran out to stop us getting into the car to return them to me. Thank you! Just one word of warning: it is advisable to book a table in advance as this is a very popular restaurant, not forgetting that it also does take-away service as well as eat-in, so the kitchen gets very busy. Many thanks to Saiful and his staff for making us feel so welcome and feeding us so well. It is excellent value for money particularly considering the quality of the food itself. We look forward to coming back again when we're next staying in Forest Row - probably the end of February!

Wonderful, delicious Indian dishes. Great service.

What a treat. Top class food. Excellent flavours. Tender meat. Great atmosphere and attentive service. We'll be back again!

Food was amazing and very good service. Staff were all very friendly and helpful and the food portions were very good and very tasty.

Literally amazing!!! Food, the best I’ve ever had and I’ve tried sooo many in the past, if you like good Indian food then this restaurant is a must!!! No one else compares 👌😋 Update- the take away food quality is just as amazing as eating in

Bestes indisches Restaurant im Umkreis! War sicher schon zum 15x da… und sich noch viele weitere male!

Had a takeaway,usually very good,arrived after an hour,stone cold.straight in the bin.disappointed..

Where do I start , the meat was so tough in both curries, unedible, the lamb samosas greasy to the maximum.. sag aloo the potatoes were raw ! The naan bread didn't even get delivered.. delivered cold too .. phoned the manager and totally rude wouldn't issue a refund but offered a discount on next delivery and if we took the discount we were told we could never order from them again.. I would never recommend this place

Awful customer service. Piling £75 of food into one bag and when it splits no offer to fix the order. Thrown away money and was told by their staff that we would return as their curry is the best, horrendous arrogance and way to treat a regular customer.

I ordered a lamb shank and a chicken cori both came like a tika masala.very bland not enough original flavour. Taste wastnt great and i was gutted as we like to treat ourselves on takeaway.. I spoke to the resturant about our upset who were not customer service focused at all. Gutted. Try monsoon in east grinstead instead.

Hi, a very bad experience staff very very rude got a takaway the curry's was awful absolutely terrible never ever go back there again I would recommend monsoon in east grinstead best curry's ever but I gave these guys a chance absolutely disappointing and disgusting food not sure why they are rated so high they should be shut down the worst curry's ever staff are so rude they all need training !!!!!! Customer service so important in these sort of businesses , please once again don't waste your money in this restaurant it's not even a restaurant it's full of rats!!!! I will be phoning the food hygiene to go there and see what I saw a rat running across the restaurant I couldn't believe it also I will be phoning the immigration office as they are illegal working in that restaurant!!!!!!! I'm going to try my best to shut that restaurant!!!!! They shouldn't be trading

Amazing. Superb service, stunning food. Nothing to complain.

Always a warm welcome, great service & delicious food. Complimentary after dinner tipple a real treat.

Delicious food and excellent service. We came here to celebrate my son’s 25th birthday, would thoroughly recommend Roochi and look forward to returning.

Incredible service, food and ambiance for a group of 16! Nothing too much trouble! The food was fresh and so tasty for exceptional value! Can’t wait to return!

We were a party of 16 and opted for the banquet deal. Such good value and food was delicious, generous and great decor. Waiters were attentive to our needs. We be coming back again.

Fantastic food. 1st class in all aspects of cuisine, culture, ambiance and service. Quite remarkable. Owner Saiful Hussain is an amicable and courteous owner. Fantastic team.

Enjoyed their Wednesday deal which is a bargain for quality of food you get. Go alone, go as a group. Won’t be disappointed. Wish it was my local restaurant

Worse Indian food I have ever had I could not eat it. The lamb was very unpleasant covered in a awful red paste.

I've been getting food here for ages and have always been very happy. Except for one small thing which has now made me switch my allegiance. Why, oh why, won't they do half size main dish portions? It had reached to point where we would...

Worst chicken tikka vindaloo I've ever eaten completely spoiled by a horrible bit of green bit of god only knows, but that is all you could taste completely spoiled the curry plus it was the weakest vindaloo I've ever had, never again should of had...

Saturday night with hubby and friends. Food very good. Advise booking as pretty busy

Visiting from Kent and celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary at Roochi. Good service and very welcoming. Gorgeous food, plenty to eat, definitely worth considering sharing as portion size is more than adequate and affordable. If we're ever back in the area, we will visit again and would highly recommend this gem. Love the Roochi chutney😍

Very good food & service. Polite staff. Very well run.

Incroyable, meilleur riz korma de ma vie. Le meilleur rapport qualité/prix

What a terrible experience! We were visiting Forest Row and craved some Indian food. After looking for an Indian restaurant, two locals pointed us to this place. We placed order for fish pakoras and mains. My fish pakora felt way too stretching and with one bite (IT WAS STONE COLD IN THE MIDDLE) I returned it and wanted it cancelled but still the manager came with another batch where I politely requested that I'll wait for my mains and didn't want fish pakoras anymore. The manager was very arrogant and pretty much forced me to accept the redone ones saying "YOU'LL HAVE TO EAT THIS AND I WON'T CANCEL AS YOU HAVE BEEN CHARGED FOR IT" and I was still trying to talk and say it was OK to be charged but I didn't want it anymore where he made an absolutely annoyed face and left. That was it, my husband and I paid for the starters and drinks and left. Never going back here.. Ps I am from India and that's not how you are treated in India!

Amazing meal. Very good flavour. Great service. Highly recommend. Sunday Banquet is fabulous.. but go hungry. They do give you a doggie bag if you can't eat it all. But the food is so good .. trust me west stretchy trousers as you will be...

Absolutey disappointed. The food has unfortunately given my mother food poisoning. She has been in bed for 3 days and had to go to the hospital as a result. Do not recommend eating here.

Manager extremely rude last night, service very slow, unfortunately our group will not be returning.

Uitgebreid menu, authentiek India's, vriendelijke en attente bediening en, voor Engeland, redelijk geprijsd

Absolutely stunning experience. The food is very, very good - lovely thick, rich and tasty sauces. The portions are also very big so you won't worry about going hungry. I can recommend the South Indian Garlic as that's what I had on this occasion. The restaurant is very well kept and nicely furnished too. And the service was always very attentive - all of the staff were very friendly. 👍 Planning very much on coming back again soon and we'll bring more of the family with us!

We had a lovely meal. We chose the Sunday banquet. It was excellent value, you choose courses from the main menu, only a few items are restricted so there is a lot of choice. The food was excellent and there was a lot of it....

Haven’t ordered Indian food here for a while.. and it was much improved. Must be new chef? Maybe the best Indian take away I have ever had, really good!

Manager was so exceptionally rude to myself and my friend when we arrived for dinner. All over which chair she was to sit on. Told him he was being rude and he said we could leave the restaurant. Couldn’t believe it. This was the said Manager. So we left. Won’t go there again. Additionally we subsequently found out they cook with GMO oil.

Lekker en verrassend gegeten, vlotte bediening, ziet er netjes uit. Zeker aan te bevelen. Keuze uit vele gerechten. Top.

We have just arrived home satisfyingly full after a delicious meal at Roochi in Forest Row. The service was friendly and attentive without being in your face and the food was amazing. Little touches like being given glasses of water with our curry and being...

Haven't been there since I lived in Forest Row over 10 years ago. Still amazing. Food unique and very well put together. Service was always superb.

The best curry house around, been coming here for years, the food is always delicious and the staff are very friendly and attentive!

Pre-ordered delivery today. It arrived on on time , piping hot, and absolutely fantastic quality. Really generous portions and superb taste. Have ordered from Roochi several times and always love the food. Friends even come down from London to stay with us and enjoy the amazing Roochi dishes. Awesome restaurant, thanks so much

Had a great meal. Helpful and friendly staff.

Amazing service and great food as always. It’s special to find a place that has consistently been so hospitable and friendly. Service you can expect from a 5 star hotel. Keep it up

Awful the owner was shouting at a women because he got her food wrong last night and seemed to of really upset and scared her! Avoid unless you want to be verbally attacked

Absolutely delish!!!! 😋 Soooo happy I found this Indian. Highly recommended, it’s the best you’ll ever get!

The best Indian I had for years. It was our first time and we highly recommend it. The food is out of this world and great portion size with lots of meat in our dishes. Well done to all the team working their 👍👏

Amazing food best we’ve had in a very long time. Definitely recommend. Service was top form too. First visit as we were in the area to attend a wedding.

Roochi is a real jewel in the crown as a Forest Row destination restaurant. The food is excellent, the place is spotless, the service is brilliant and it is amazing value for money. I love their extra mile of effort - complimentary drinks and nothing...

A large menu to choose from, very pleasant polite staff and boy it tastes good. We've been a few times now. Never had any reason to complain.

Waiters were very attentive, even through they were really busy.. We had a takeaway meal. It arrived in good time after we ordered and was very tasty!! Would 100% recommend!!

Well dressed, courteous and attentive. Very much enjoy coming here.
