Ruchee in Wakefield

Food was delicious. Service was great, as were the prices! First time visit but we will definitely return!

Went for food for a family finger party of 8 and everything was amazing. The place as a whole looks nice, friendly staff were patient and helpful, food was all great, amazing portions, presentation was beautiful. Afterwards we got warmed wipes for our hands/face as well as small complimentary chocolates that came with the bill. Overall a great experience, would definitely come here again and would recommend to others. £130 for 8 people is great for the experience we had.

Great food one of the best around the area but management need to decide if they want to keep using just eat or not as orders have been canceled for no reason or explanation and they then couldn't be contacted or have been 20 min late with just eat being blamed

I have never dined in the restaurant only takeaway or delivery. Never had an issue, the food has always been great quality and delivered on time. Since all the takeaways around Knottingley now charge restaurant prices for takeaway quality I doubt I will go anywhere else for curries.

So, we have wanted to go here for a while now and overall it was an ok experience. The only thing that let it down was the starters. The starters were obviously not fresh, the Fish Pakora was luke warm, rubbery and was not nice at all. The rice was a little dry however, the main course and nan bread was great. Service was ok, when i sent back my starter and my wife did too, we were asked if there was a problem to which we explained the reason we hadnt eaten it, and were told sorry, but still charged. for that reason i wont be going back however, i am sure they were just having a bad night

10 out of 10 everytime yorkshires number 1 Indian

Amazing food, staff friendly. 10/10

Had a takeaway this evening it was lovely . Got a free Diet Coke whilst waiting which was much appreciated. Really good value for money, staff are friendly and food is great. Whats’s not to like 👍🏻

Really loved the chefs new green curry dish. The best curries in the local area!

Staff are so friendly and welcoming and the food is amazing

We arrived and asked for a table for 2 and were seated immediately. We ordered poppadoms, a pickle tray and 2 curries. The poppadoms and pickle tray arrived almost immediately. About halfway through eating it, I scooped up some onion using a spoon and a big, yellow wasp-looking bug came up from the bottom of the onion dish. It was still wriggling and alive. I immediately informed the staff who were very apologetic and offered to replace the starters etc, but we were both incredibly put off and left shortly after without eating any more. I could understand if the insect had been on top of the food, but it was buried at the bottom of the bowl so the onion had clearly been dumped on top of it. This has put us off the restaurant and we will not be back.

Was lovely and fresh and in fast time

Incredible food, and really generous portions! They predicted an hour, but it turned up in significantly less! Will absolutely be ordering again, and couldn’t recommend it more!!

Great food and great staff would highly recommend a visit to the ruchee

Lovely relaxing atmosphere attentive waters food absolutely amazing what a gem of a place

Can't fault anything. Super food, service, decor

First time i went there today, never again!food was rubbish, onion bajis were old, seek kebabs were not made right, portions were ver small, crap service. Initially he said he does NHS discount but when the bill came he said "what discount! We dont do any discounts because we give good food and good service" 😂 We ordered some chappatis which were actually tortilla wraps in a plastic bag that were reheated. If you know your foods Do Not visit this place! As you can see in the picture he gives tiny bit of salad 🥗, i asked for more and he made a face and said "this is all we give, everything is expensive! ". He then decided to bring some in a plate and charged me an extra £2. He added £8 as a service charge despite the crap experience. This place wouldn't last in Leeds or Bradford with such quality of food.

We have been here several times recently and always had good food and service. However last night we ordered a meal for 2 via deliveroo and were quoted 65 minutes before collection. We had a reminder that the food would be available for pick up in 5 minutes time, 60 minutes after placing the order. When we arrived the restaurant was almost full and a large group had just left. There were several people waiting for pick up orders. After about a 10 minute wait we were told our order was just being packed. After 3 other cusomers collected their orders ours arrived 35 minutes after we arrived. The server apologied for the delay and said we have given you 2 popadoms free as if that would in some way compensate for our wasted time sat in the waiting area. The place was busy and the staff were doing their best but if you are swamped with orders let people know a realistic time for collection or stop taking orders. Just be honest with people. We will not be back.

Fantastic curry’s absolutely delicious 5*

By far the best take away we've ever ordered since living in the area.

Arrived on time with polite service. Packed neatly and well contained. Hot, tasty & fresh. Will be ordering more often

Very nice , fast delivery , driver lovely ,

Wow! The food was beautiful. Chicken masala very authentic and the chicken itself tasted very fresh. The pilau rice was so tasty and fragrant on its own! Combined with the masala sauce it was even better. 10/10.

Paid more for a cheesy nan and got a plain

Great as always!! probably my favourite Indian restaurant

Forgot to put my naan bread in ☹️ Everything else beautiful as usual but not the same when having to have shop bought naan

We go here every Monday food fantastic service fantastic me and hubby lv going here the owner and his son are such lovely people nothing too much trouble and they always look after us highly recommended

First time here and was not disappointed. Food was excellent. Staff very obliging and friendly also very helpful with suggestions. We will most definitely be returning soon

The meal was lovely, however the chicken tikka masala was short of chicken ! Only 10 small pieces / cubes for the amount of sauce

Very tasty, our favourite takeaway! Try the chefs specials they are amazing

It’s a real shame writing this. Been many a times, sitting in and ordering takeaway Ring up on a Friday night at 9.30pm just to have a sit in meal, two of us, probably be in and out in an hour, just to be told its take away only, at 9.30pm on a Friday???!! No way to run a business, massive shame as I really like your food. Won’t be back

Absolutely delicious, we will definitely use this restaurant again. large portions, had to save some for later. also sent free Poppadoms and chutney tray...thankyou

This is the place to go if you want a decent curry. The food is exceptional and consistently so, always being very fresh and flavourful. The service is the best, very friendly, helpful and professional. There is a great variety of food which can be tailored to meet individual requirements by a talented chef. This is a take your own alcohol place which is also very useful. It is also cash only but there is a cash machine a couple of doors down. I highly recommend the Ruchee for small intimate couples and also larger parties. They are also very good with children.

Another fantastic meal Great service Oooops forgot the pics

A really lovely meal. The highlight was definitely the fish tikka, the fish was so fresh and not processed! I'll definitely be ordering again as all of the dishes I ordered were seasoned so well and were so fragrant and tasty.

Best curry house around. Can’t be beat. Restaurant quality delivered to your door.

It said it had been relived when it hadn’t , so I have to phone up for us then to wait longer for it

Always great BIR curries. I was greeted today by the manager to eat inside as I always take out - such friendly and welcoming hospitality. I will definitely come back soon with company. Always superb and proper curries, the best in the area. A Balti is always thick and sweet with coriander , a jalfrezi always with sliced onions and Birdseye chilli, Karahi in savoury sauce and slices of larger pepper. These guys know what their art with attention to detail

Yet more fabulous meals from Ruchee , so consistent . Highly recommended , will be back for more. Great and friendly service too

Never disappointed. Always great food.

Delicious. One of the only restaurants I’ve ordered from that actually reads the note left and does exactly as requested! Thank you 👍😁

10/10 best curry’s in the area.

We have take-outs from Ruchee almost every week ... But recently we've noticed that there are more tomatoes, than meat in the dishes, even Indian dishes that don't normlly have tomatoes as ingredients. We've given Ruchee the benefit of the doubt for quite a while, but this evenings meal was the last straw.. 70% tomatoes and 30% (6 small pieces of chicken in each meal... and more tomatoes than in a farmers greehouse. At £10.90 for a curry, (which really isn't cheap for a restaurant takeaway).. I would expect more chicken in the dish. In the past we could guarantee having some takeaway left over to have the next day, not anymore, barely a meal for one. So disappointing when you spend just short of £50 every time I order for 3 adults. We'll have go back to one of the other Indian restaurants/takeaway in Knottingley.

Delivery took over 1 hour 35 minutes. Luke warm and not much flavour. Will not be ordering from here again.

Had to pick up due to lack of a driver but good available earlier than requested. Fantastic lamb chops and saag.

The best curries in the area full stop

Not even arrived lying b&(tards

Amazing BIR curries. They seem to be better than ever recently! The best in the whole area.

Food is always delicious. Surely the best in the area.

Absolutely beautiful got to be the best in the 5 towns

DISGUSTING CUSTOMER SERVICE BY THE DELIVERY DRIVER!!! RUDE ARROGANT MAN NEVER ORDER AGAIN

The food arrived 45 minutes late. The chips and rice was stone cold. The chips were inedible. So disappointed.

Completely wrong order. Couldn't get through to anyone on the phone. Waste of money!

A quiet Monday evening in this restaurant Food and service was good.

Lovely food! One of the best curries i’ve had for a takeaway.

Spot on as usual, tasted great, nice and hot and arrived on time. Thanks! 😁

Superb curries as usual. Best in the area

Polite delivery driver and food spot on👌

Your website says delivered , but it had not arrived

Five star food, five star service. Excellent, thank you 👌

Lived in Knottingley for 13 years now, and only visited for the first time yesterday. Can't believe I've not been before, food was delicious, reasonably priced and the service was second to none. Would highly recommend the king prawn achari. We will certainly be going again very soon!

Always top quality food and excellent service. I recommend the Lamb Hyderabadi (great flavour and not hot), chicken tikka masala or butter chicken (both mild, creamy, delicious), and the chicken tikka pathia, with extra green chilli’s. Hot from the fresh chilli, but not stupid hot. Taste explosion! The chicken tikka and mushroom grill is also great, and the mixed grill or tandoori chicken on bone is fantastic.

amazing food will definitely order again

Same as last time! Really great food. Best curry I’ve had round here anyway! 😁

Tomato soup with coconut milk yak! Never again

Ordered from here for the first time. We had takeaway so can't rate the atmosphere but when we collected, the restaurant was very bright and cheery and very clean. The staff were very friendly and smart and the price was very reasonable. The food was absolutely excellent. We had pathia which a lot of takeaways seem to struggle with but this was perfect. The garlic chapati was gorgeous too. We've been looking for a good Indian in the area as we haven't lived here long and this is it. We will be going to try the Wednesday night meal deal. Thanks a lot Ruchee, we'll be back

Never tried the restaurant before, lovely food. Quick delivery time. Will definitely come again!

Great food, amazing service. What more could you ask for.

Had my birthday meal with .my family last night and I have to say it was the best Indian meal I've had ,all my family said the same . The staff are so polite and efficient, I will be going again

The food was on time and great as usual. We were missing an item but after a phone call it was sent out and delivered quickly which was great service.

I told the clerk that I had half an hour to catch the train. The clerk not only let me dine in, but also helped me ask the kitchen to serve my meal asap. Very friendly and the food is delicious too!

Went for a family birthday party, the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The food was amazing, stayed until closing time handshakes all round great night.

Food was hot, tasty and well prepared. Arrived in a decent time period. Second time we have used this restaurant and this was my birthday treat and well worth it.

Chicken korma. Chicken was tough and the sauce too runny

Expensive but definitely worth it, best curry I’ve had so far in the Pontefract area

Lovely delivery lady lovely meal thank you

FINALLY! Found a great curry place it was so tasty! Definitely be ordering again 😁

Gorgeous food as always. Bhuna and Madras were delicious as always. Bhajis we’re lovely and crisp. Only downside is the naans seem to be shrinking as one of the cheapest items to make it is a little disappointing

There wasn't much chicken in the tikka masala but everything was hot and tasty

Food was amazing will definitely order again

Thumbs up from everyone - we've often had trouble with veg curries from other restaurants (especially korma) being all sauce and no substance, but this one was very good.

Always get seated even when busy Food beautiful Service- can’t do enough for you Advised to book on certain nights

What a nice restaurant, came here passing through between jobs after reading the reviews and we loved it. The food was so tasty and so much of it we couldn't finish it all. Shame we didn't know it was a BYOB as we never had any alcohol with us but enjoyed our Pepsi's anyway. All the staff were professional and chatty and even had a nice chat with one before we left. I definitely recommend it and I will be back !

First time ordering from here but wow defo ordering again. Tasted amazing

Had a delivery over our delivery time which which was the incorrect order they rectified it very well and was beautiful when arrived

Excellent food,great staff,good value.

Great BIR curries here. Best in the whole area.

2nd takeaway we have ordered now from our most local curry house. 1st delivery was 110% of our expectations. 2nd delivery we can only give 90% as no rice was delivered (however without this, we’d give 110% again). Best local curry we’ve had ever; well on par with Aagrah!!!

Beautiful food every time it’s the best 😍🙌👍

Piping hot, incredibly delicious. Will definitely order again. Thank you

Perfection yet again .. outstanding food as always

Always gorgeous food best there is thanks 😊

Frozen mixed veg in the rice overpowering coriander taste not nice at all will not be ordering from here again

Amazing flavours,, outstanding quality,, delivered with a smile, overall 10 out of 5 stars,, honestly the best tasting Indian I’ve had, would highly recommend this restaurant, definitely will order again

I usually love Ruchee’s but I was really disappointed tonight. The mixed meat tikka masala didn’t have much meat unfortunately, with a good amount made up of mushroom instead. It also lacked any real flavour and was quite watery compared to normal. The peshwari naan and egg rice was nice but not very warm.

Onion bhaji were spot on. Some places make them too spicy, but these were spot on for me. Chips and garlic naan were both fresh, chips didn't taste reheated or cardboardy, which is a bonus. The Saag Aloo was really nice, the potatoes are quite big but cooked through. The chicken tikka massage was nice, I agree with a previous comment that the flavour wasn't quiet there, but that could be due to amount of sauce. There was so much sauce that the flavours were likely diluted. Maybe try serving with less sauce to elevate the flavours a little. Will definitely be ordering again from here

Amazing food plenty of vegan options too The staff are super friendly and accommodating

Ordered the mild tikka masala with paneer and normal naan bread. It was very nice but a little bland as it was very very mild. Almost tasteless to be honest. But the quality was very high. I guess my palette is different as I am indian, Addition of some ginger (a bit extra then usual) and some fennel powder would have elevated the dish. As it was it was very nice but very very mild as I said. The naan bread was very nice and tasted fresh. I do have a gripe that the naan bread wasn't included in the price, bit like buying a car without wheels I had to pay extra for some wheels!. The drinks can was not refrigerated and in this warm weather we having i wanted a cold drink which I didn't receive. The main reason I ordered the mild curry was I always find takeaways either put too much heat or TOO much heat, nothing in between. But I must say my experience was good I will be ordering again in the future.

Absolutely beautiful curry, how ever i don’t know what you did with the peshwari nan broke some off and all the coconut just fell out of it was disappointed

A much changed restaurant from the one I visited six years ago. Great service, value and excellent food. The restaurant was very busy with a large party but coped very well and apologised for the slight delay. The restaurant was comfortable and very clean. My friends and me will definitely be visiting again. Fish tikka starter was amazing!
