Ruchi Thame Indian Cuisine in South Oxfordshire

Had the best food from Ruchi. The butter chicken was one of the best I’ve ever tasted

Ordered online. Food delivered to camp site on time. Really tasty. Loads of meat. Will definitely order again next time we’re in Thame

Fantastic food and even better service by Rebecca! would absolutely recommend :)

Ok, that's as good as it gets. Sauce and rice was very nice, chicken was poor and tough. No option to order tikka online. Overall, it was very expensive and you don't get good value for money.

Just had a lovely meal from Ruchi. Lovely welcome in the shop and excellent food. Best Indian meal we have had. Wonderful flavours.

Absolutely brilliant customer service - super friendly. The lady at the desk taking orders was very accommodating and reassuring ie. food allergies and was confident, patient, and clear. The team worked well together and the service was fast. Food is delicious. Highly recommend!

Not too impressed with our first visit to Ruchi. Can’t complain about the service very lovely lady too our order and was quick to be made, food however not amazing, the chicken was extremely dry and chewy and didn’t taste nice. The masala was awful, lamb was dry and just disgusting and for the sauce…. Even worse. Only good thing was the poppadoms. We was very excited to try here as a lot of good reviews, sceptical of price for £60? But looking at reviews wouldn’t mind paying if was worth it. Won’t be ordering again.

Self-classified as the premium local curry house with those interesting prices (comparative to the local curry houses… are we in London?). Headline: High prices. Korma on the special list (to swindle you for extra £££, unbelievable Jeff) lol - never seen that before, it’s a classic, in all but this place, with the standard price! Really, who do you think we are? And not even a single complimentary poppadom on a £50+ order…? Talk about stingy. The imaginary popodoms left an unsavory taste but I tried to think about the mains. The chicken was so overcooked and chewy, it could have doubled as stress balls (ignore the comparison and get serious for a second… the chicken was the worst I’ve had from a curry house in over a decade. It was absolutely shocking, how did that leave the kitchen! And at that price point… unforgivable. Leather is softer!). Closing points for fellow customers: Restaurants these days think they can get away with sky-high prices without delivering the quality (or quantity) to match. I'll be sticking to the Cin Lounge, Mowchak, and Duos, where they seem to look for repeat custom! As you can see from my review history, I’m not one to leave reviews like this often, but I’m honestly so frustrated with this place

We did a very large delivery order for 11 people on Friday night, spoke to a lovely and very helpful girl called Becky who helped arrange it all. Food arrived on time, was hot, and everything was delicious!!! Massive thank you and we will be ordering again soon :-)

Hot, delicious food with prompt delivery, thank you.

Ordered a takeaway for 6 people on bank holiday Monday. It arrived promptly and was still hot. The food was delicious and very reasonable priced. Will definitely be ordering again!

Brilliant Indian take away. The food was tasty and well prepared. Everything we ordered was excellent.

We have now had several Take Away Meals from Richi in Thame The Quality of the Food is Superb and the Service we received is Excellent I would not hesitate in Recommending this food Service to anyone !!

Fantastic takeaway this evening, Thame has a great Indian Restaurant at last!!!!!!!

Great takeaway, tasty flavoursome curries, I got the collection time wrong and they kindly reheated our food and cooked a fresh naan.

Incredible food delivered piping hot with great customer service. Delicious, would highly recommend.

I love this takeaway! Aubergine Bhaji, Paneer Tikka and Paratha are the best

First time for me and made to feel welcome. The food was great. I will be going back!

First visit to pick up a takeaway. Becky greeted us and assured us this would be the best curry in the area - and she was right. Lovely food and great service - we will be back!

This is the second time we have had the set meal for two and shared all the courses. Portion size was plenty for two. The onion bhajis and lamb balti are particular favourites. We ordered by phone, food was ready on our arrival 20 mins later and we were served by the bubbly Becky! Thoroughly recommend.

As I normally cook all our Indian food from scratch, we have not had takeaway in many years. This is about to change. The flavours were fabulous, the heat did not over power and all dishes were very much enjoyed. We will be calling here again. Thank you for your woundiful service and amazzing food.

I had a really nice takeaway from Ruchi the other day. Beautifully cooked veggi side dishes and really great service. It was easily the best takeaway I have had from Thame in many years. It would have been 5 stars if there were a better selection of veggie main dishes. As it was, I was pretty much limited to ordering side dishes which is ok, but also a slight shame...

Another super takeaway from Ruchi. Easy to order and a quick collection, with a friendly welcome and chat with Becky! The Madras curry heat was perfect and full of flavour and the best onion bajhi's around!

What an amazing Indian takeaway! Great addition to Thame! Just had my 2nd Indian from Ruchi and the Food is 1st Class and tastes so yummy 😋 So lovely to have great customer service and it shows that they care about their orders and customers! Well done 👍

Just had their meal for two. Lovely and only £25. Plenty of everything and very tasty. Looking forward to exploring their main menu.

We had our first take-away from here last night and we were very impressed. The food came quickly and the delivery driver was very friendly. The dishes were absolutely delicious and much fresher and less greasy than the food from our usual take-away. Highly recommend and Ruchi is now our favourite Indian take-away!

Fantastic food so fresh and full of flavour . Delivered on time every time. Very professional outfit.

Excellent food as always. Becky is efficient and knowledgeable of menu, can advise on strength of spice in each dish. Best Indian meal takeout or restaurant we have had. Thank you Ruchi....

Sooo so delicious. Best veggie balti I’ve had in a long time. The food is so fresh and the staff are really friendly and accommodating - shout out to Becky! It’s my new favourite Indian and I highly recommend.

They catered for 12 of us last night at short notice and every single dish was out of this world! Excellent service and food, loved it and will be back.

One of the best Indian takeaways I’ve ever had! The curry tasted so fresh, the meat was succulent, delicious onion bahjis and very friendly service. Highly recommend giving them a go, you won’t be disappointed!

Lovely tasty food, after trying all the local Indian takeaways and being disappointed with the taste. I’m so happy to find one which tastes amazing and excellent customer service. Will be using again.

First take away we've had from here, and it won't be the last! Ordered a pick up takeaway and it was ready promptly, well labelled and still piping hot once home. My son collected the meal and said that the kitchen is visible from the collection area, always a good sign, in my opinion. Reasonably priced, certainly good value and the best onion bhaji we've had in ages!

Disappointing take away, lack of meat content in dishes ordered, £40 inc delivery wasn’t adequate for 3 of us. I won’t be ordering again anytime soon.

Ruchi if you haven't tried it highly recommend that you do😋😋 The food was mouth watering and delicious. Best Indian take away. Well package and the food was freshly cooked. Great flavours. The staff are so friendly. Please support our local businesses like Ruchi. Definitely going back to try more

First Jalfezi on opening sensational. Second Jalfrezi ok. Third Jalfrezi very average and just like all the other locals. Good while it lasted.

First time I’ve tried this place. 2 hours wait. No delivery. Excuses given when I chase. Promise of making it up to me next time. There won’t be a next time.

We have been using Ruchi since they first opened in Thame. I can honestly say this is the best Indian Take Away for us. We had the set meal for two this evening, perfect portion sizes and not too spicy for me which i am very happy about. Plenty on the menu to suit all tastes 😋

We now have our new favourite Indian restaurant! The food is excellent and I would recommend Ruchi as hands down the best restaurant in the area.

One of the best Indians I’ve had, great food, really recommend

We’ve had numerous takeaways from here and each time it’s arrived quickly, piping hot, fresh and full of flavour! A great addition to Thame!

Called at 9.25pm this evening and the food was delivered at 9.40pm. The food was piping hot and tasted great. Had the set meal for 2 with extra naan and it was lovely. So good to have new place on Thame that serves good food and is willing to deliver.

The best curry we've had in a really long time - rich spices, the freshest of salads and clean flavours with no grease or fat - so nice!

Welcoming staff and atmosphere. Food was delicious and fresh. Will definitely order again.

First order from Ruchi, food was very good, hot, tasty especially the onion bhajis we had chicken tikka masala and chicken dhansak and quick delivery too. We will order again!

Highly recommended, front of the house staff are very friendly and helpful the food is probably one of the nicest I have tried and will definitely be going back.

Lovely staff and great food. So nice to experience good quality lamb from an Indian takeaway, delicious!

Really delicious meal, great service and arrived faster that we expected. Would definitely recommend!

Absolutely delicious food, really friendly staff and speedy delivery. Hands down the best Indian food in Thame and a really welcome addition to the town - we’ll be regular customers!

Highly recommend, food was delicious and turned up within half an hour! Only negative is the plastic dishes - much prefer the taste when Indian comes in tin foil dishes!

Absolutely fantastic delicious food, definitely the best Indian cuisine in the area and the service is second to none with the well mannered, very friendly and helpful lady that works there 😃

Decided to try the new Indian Ruchi in Thame Without a doubt the best Indian meal we have had from Thame in years! The service , atmosphere, and food are outstanding! You really must try ! Absolutely delicious! The Dall Masala is the best ever ! We asked for a little extra spice and it was perfection, this will now be our regular Indian Takeaway! Thank you Rebecca for your warm welcome See you next week 😊 Jan and John

By far the best Indian I've ever had absolutely delicious 😋 Service also amazing. Staff very friendly. Flavours out of this world. Without Doudt will be my regular Indian 💯 😋 👏

Fantastic food, owner is lovely and friendly. Had the set meal for two, which had a tonne of variety for £25. Quite mild but I am white as hell, so they'll probably adjust to preferences.

Lovely staff, super friendly when collecting, amazing comfy seats to sit in while waiting. Food was honestly some of the best curry I think I’ve ever had and I’ve been to atleast 50 different Indian restaurants in my time but this one… this one hits different! Set meal deal for 2 is plenty of food for 2 people as well. I’m a big guy and was hungry going into this by myself. 2 poppadoms (1 onion salad is enough for 2 poppadoms if you like your garnish) and the set meal to myself I can safely say I’ve only eaten half of each dish and I’m stuffed yet the taste makes me keep dipping back in just for a little taste more. I think this has just become my new favourite Indian out there!

Very good food! Reasonably priced too. Will definitely come back here.

We recently tried Ruchi to support a new, local business and they immediately became our favourite takeaway locally. Great food, clearly labelled, hot, and always delivered with a smile. Excellent work team and looking forward to more meals from you in the future!

We made a large order for delivery, it arrived quickly & we were amazed! Everything was clearly labelled & the food was piping hot, portion sizes are generous & everything was delicious. I find most Indian takeaway has a layer of oil on top of most dishes, but this is not the case from Ruchi. We will definitely order again

Excellent, best curry I’ve had in years. Extremely fresh and simply delicious. All delivered promptly and perfect temperature. Look forward to our next visit.

We had our second meal from Ruchi last night and decided to go in and look at meet the team rather than have a delivery. Salim and Rebecca were so friendly and helpful we could have spent all evening chatting to them! The kitchen is open so you can see exactly what is going on behind the counter. Salim gave recommendations for dishes based on our tastes and we weren't disappointed. Great quality meat, delicious sauces ( at some restaurants the sauces are greasy but that is definitely NOT the case at Ruchi!) We'll be back!

Best take away ever. Fantastic. Quality of ingredients. Flavour amazing. Ist time we have used Ruchi Thame. Thank you. Graham

2nd time ordering a take away, and it was beautiful. Great friendly service and fresh tasting food. 5 stars ⭐️

First time (2nd for my husband) trying Ruchi. Food was very fresh and tasty. I am always conscious about the chicken in Indian restaurants, but the chicken in my starter (tandoori) & Main (jalfrezi) was succulent and good quality. Great to finally have a decent Indian restaurant in Thame (even if it’s just take away for now). Looking forward to next time.

I've had more Indian takeaways in the last 6 weeks then I have in the last 12 years. Great food, not greasy, packed with flavour. Portions could be better and the samosas are in filo and not dough but other then that easily the best Indian I've had in a long time.

The best Indian I've had in a couple years. Not the biggest portions but worth it for the flavour.

Great food and delivery on time. Definitely recommend

What can I say. Absolutely stunning food. Ordered the set menu for two as a anniversary dinner for me and the fiancé. Lady on the phone was new and she done a great job. Really polite and efficient, she said the food was going to be 30-45 mins. It arrived dead on 30 mins after me paying over the phone. Delivery driver was very polite also. Nothing to fault (accept they missed the mango chutney 🤦‍♀️) but that’s minor. Beautiful food and service. Will 100% be a regular. Best I’ve had to date thank you very much also upgraded the naan to cheese naan free of charge for being a new customer. Thanks guys 👌👌

The food is delicious, best I've had in ages. Very tasty.

Amazing food, very tasty and fast efficient setvice

Ordered our food from here last night, absolutely brilliant I’ve tried a few in the area and this was quality food freshly cooked, I had the lamb balti the meat was lovely and the portions were great full of flavour not just a base sauce I highly recommend. This is our new regular 👌🏻

Amazing food. Paneer and chicken so tender and delicious! Will be coming again!

Fantastic Food!!!! The taste was so yummy: and the meat so tender. Great service - Thank You

Excellent service and the chicken Parthia was delicious. Boxes were labeled which was extremely useful

I know my curries 😀 my chicken madras takeaway was so nice last I am having the same again tonight 10/10

Ordered my first meal.. delivery was nice and fast (about 30 Min).. the meal was noticeably "fresh" and tasted great and was really authentic.. will definitely use again

Freshly made and not full of old ghee… great flavours and clean taste, quality 10/10

We tried Ruchi for the first time tonight and we’re delighted!! Tasted incredible, delivered in no time and clearly fresh ingredients. Highly recommended!

Had takeaway from Ruchi last friday night, Really enjoyed my meal. Great tasting curry, good meat portions and great naan. Front of house and chefs were excellent, nothing better than going to collect your meal and being greeted by friendly smiles. Easily the best Indian in the area and can't wait to go back this Friday.

Distinctly average. Ordered chicken tika byriani but was given chicken byriani. Sheek kebabs with no yoghurt or salad. On the plus side it was fresh as has been said

Ordered a set meal for two for delivery. It was here in less than 30 minutes by a friendly driver and was great value for money. The food itself was delicious. We will definitely use them again.

Just tried Ruchi for the first time tonight, absolutely delicious! All the food was very well cooked, not at all oily and greasy and each dish tasted different, no base sauces used here. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming, we will be back very soon!

Ordered chicken palak, pilau rice, garlic nan and a couple of pappadoms via the on line ordering, was ready when I got there. Very friendly staff. Food was delicious. Will definitely use again.

Great food, friendly service and quick delivery!

The best start! Order was Lamb vindaloo, lamb pathia, Bombay potatoes and poppadoms. Vindaloo was great. Nice sauce. Good level of spice. Pleased that I could taste the food rather than just heat which is what I like in a curry. Partner said she finished off the sauce which is unlike her so it must have been pretty good! Easy to order online and nice friendly delivery guy. Great start Ruchi. 👏

A great start with friendly staff, good sized meat portions in flavoursome sauces - very tasty. The restaurant will cater for small private functions with customised menus, rather than being open for the general public - and no alcohol licence. Should be interesting to try. Good luck.

Our food was delicious! Really tasty, we very much enjoyed our meal. Very good service, and friendly staff. We will certainly be back for more!
