The restaurant has a 5 hygiene rating and was really clean and comfortable with a very nice decor. The waiters were very welcoming and showed us to our immaculately presented table. So we had high expectations for the evening. Our Prawn puri starter was tasty but the prawns were rather dry and chewy. We both chose a karahi dish, one lamb and one chicken. The sauce again was tasty but the dish consisted of mainly large pieces of peppers and onion with very little of the not too great quality meat. We paid an average price for a very average meal, and came away feeling a bit disappointed.

Absolutely amazing food and service as always, can't recommend highly enough, slight misunderstanding on last week's takeaway which was perfectly rectified tonight so thank you very much, it was a shame that a slightly inebriated customer felt the need to get involved , definitely not a "Karen" but a regular customer who appreciates the high quality of this restaurant.

Great hospitality, extremely attentive staff. Very good food. Don’t forget to take own alcohol. Very busy establishment, full by 1930 and constant stream of takeaways too.

This has been my local for the last 17 years and I think it’s time I gave this establishment its flowers. Absolutely sublime food, I order a different menu item most visits and am never disappointed. And whilst the food is out of this world they are still outshone by the kind, attentive staff who are nothing but polite and helpful every visit. If there were an option to exceed the 5 star limit I would, the best curry in North Yorkshire.

My partner and I arrived around 9.30pm and were seated straight away. The restaurant does not have an alcohol licence so if you want a drink with your meal its bring your own booze, so far so good. I placed a bottle of wine on our table which was immediately picked up and 2 glasses placed in front of us, the wine was poured by the waiter, again no problem. We shared a pickle tray and a main meal each which was enjoyable. Our main gripe was when the bill arrived we were charged £1.75 each “corkage” which we had never encountered before, so for the privilege of unscrewing a wine cap we were charged £3.50. Clearly not a life changing amount of money but as a principal we felt this a bit of a rip off, the bottle of wine was only 6 quid! Food is fine service is ok but be advised open your own wine before the waiter gets hold of it.

This is one of these little gem's of an Indian restaurant that sits quietly on the high street opposite the grandness of The Crown Inn Hotel, where we were staying. A walk across the street, bring your own alcohol and your taste buds, ready for them to be awaked with a variety of spices, herbs and Asian flavours to entice you to repeat the experience. The food was beautifully presented, the services was excellent; with a smile from all 5 waiters who served us our gorgeous cuisine. If you like Asian food served with a smile and host of tastes, you have to visit. Enjoy

On a whim we called in the restaurant the evening before to book a table, We are not locals so didn't know what to expect. Very friendly staff.. Very clean restaurant... Ladies bathroom was the nicest smelling bathroom I have ever been in.. Service was excellent, we weren't rushed and asked did we want a little break between courses. ( which we did). The food was exceptionally good, I can honestly say I think this is the best starter (mixed starter) and the best pasanda i have ever tasted. My husband had mixed starter (but different to mine) and he said it was amazing. He also had a madras but asked if they could turn down the heat just a touch. Which the waiter said was not a problem.. My Husband said it was amazing.. The price was cheaper than we expected. So all in all a very good night. Thank you and the next time we visit Boroughbridge we will be having another curry.

Avoid at all costs. Reheated, dry yet somehow greasy, not fresh at all. Owner is argumentative and claimed this was "fine dining".. look at the photo! They left Bradford because in Bradford they would close within a week because from that side of Yorkshire we know good curry and kebabs.

Myself and 3 family members had dinner on 30 July, the food was excellent, delicious. We didn't realise they didn't sell alcohol, no problem though. What we thought unacceptable was that they would not serve us a glass or jug of tap water, especially as that is against the law. All hospitality establishments are obliged to serve tap water to any person who requests it! They did offer to sell us bottled water. Kathy

I visit here every year when staying in Boroughbridge. We rang ahead and booked a table as it can get busy. I had chicken ticka garlic and my husband had chicken ticka jalfraize. Both were absolutely delicious, my husband said his taste buds do somersaults it's that nice. We had garlic naan which was really nice and tasty. It wasn't doughy or stodgy. You can't purchase alcohol in restaurant but for a small surcharge you can take your own in. Prices are very reasonable, staff are great and attentive. Would recommend a visit if your in Boroughbridge.

Dry lamb, dry chicken, average seekh kebab, barely any meat for £9.95. Having grown up next to Bradford, I can confidently say that if there was any decent competition around here for this place, it would likely close down. I'd rather pay the fuel to go to international or shezaans than ever frequent this place again. Stupid enough to go a few times but this was the last straw. Cheap nasty food a high prices. Lol at the owners response.. fine dining hahahaha. I'm not after a cheap meal you fool I'm after good quality food, something you don't serve. You left Bradford because they'd spit your food out there and came out to the sticks where people don't know what good curry is. Based on your idiotic reply I've dropped you to one star from two. We've dined out plenty at the Grantham, Hideaway, tap on the tutt, the wild swan.. all more expensive than you and we frequently return.. because they're good quality.

Visited again for dinner whilst I'm in Boroughbridge which is an annual thing. We rang ahead and reserved a table. Very reasonably priced. Staff are great and very attentive. I had chicken ticka garlic which is to die for, it is gorgeous. My husband had chicken ticka jalfreize which he says is the best he's ever tasted and makes his taste buds do somersaults it's that nice. Garlic naan is beautiful, it's not stodgy or doughy. You can't purchase alcohol here but you can take your own to have with your meal which most people do. They just serve soft drinks, alcohol free cobra and another alcohol free lager. If your in Boroughbridge and fancy a curry then this is the place to eat. Highly recommended.

1 star to much for this place! Muck! Worst curry house I've ever been to! Shame as it was recommended. customers be warned to watch and check your bill ! They over charge you for things you haven't had. You can clearly see this by the amended slip. The corkage charge is a joke, we took 2 pints in from the local club which where in a pint glasses already, but still charged corkage. Are you that desperate for a extra £3.50?? . Food very bland and tasteless! Customer service skills when quizzed over my bill are totally disgusting! . Will not be returning and certainly will not recommend. A ready meal from morrisons would have tasted better!

We were staying at the Crown across the road, I thought this would be ideal for our evening meal, I was impressed with the decor & cleanliness of the premises, the staff all well dressed helpful & polite. The letdown was the food, I had a Madras, my wife a korma, we both thought it was very bland & tasteless, prawns not pink, but dry & chewy, appeared to be some sort of base curry or gravy sauce with Chilli added for the Madras & no other spices. As I was paying the bill I told the waiter I was very disappointed with the lack of taste in the meals but he did not seem to be concerned. Be warned you cannot have a proper beer with your curry, alcohol free Kingfisher @ £3.40 for a small bottle.

Dined here Saturday night. Was seated near the bar and had constant human traffic collecting takeaway orders so not very relaxing place to dine. Ordered two curries rice chips chapatti and garlic naan. Food was quick and the chicken was chewy, hardly any chicken to be fair which was just as well, and we were still hungry, bill came to 40 quid and I noticed they’d tried to overcharge us so I queried plus corkage charge was about 3.75 to open two bottles of beer, wouldn’t return, felt I’d been done to be honest and it’s nearly six quid for a bottle of water. Disappointed

Great prompt friendly service despite restaurant being busy. Food was very tasty, I had a keema dish which was lovely, and had plenty of heat! Waiter gave us a free side dish and threw in some free poppadoms for our leftovers to take home. As mentioned in other reviews it is a Bring Your Own drinks place if you want to drink alcohol, but there’s a Spar just round the corner, where we went. Corkage charge was quite low at around £1.75 each I believe. Will definitely return!

Enjoyed a lovely meal here on our recent stay in Boroughbridge. We had asked a few locals in a nearby pub for their recommendation before we visited and all were full of praise for the Shahri Raj and I must say their recommendation was warranted. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the restaurant had a lovely decor and atmosphere. The gentleman who took our order was very helpful regarding our choices and was very knowledgable regarding the menu and recommended a cooling sauce for my partner’s spicy dish. The food was promptly served and proved absolutely delicious. My dish, a lamb bhuna, was one of the best I had ever had and my partner agreed that her chicken tandoori was equally as good. Service was prompt in clearing our table between courses as we had popadoms and dips and a chicken chatt and a lamb chop starter and the staff allowed us a minute before our main meal. A wine bottle holder was provided as locals had recommended we take a bottle of wine from a nearby supermarket as the restaurant only serves soft drinks and hot towels and after dinner mints were presented after our meal. Thank you Shahri Raj for a lovely dining experience.

Visited with my wife at about 6.30 pm on Good Friday. We hadn't booked but restaurant was quiet so we were welcomed in and given a choice of tables to sit at. It is a BYOB place with no liquor licence. We were given glasses and the waiter kindly opened and poured our beers for us. Our orders for starters and mains were taken and quite soon afterwards the food arrived. We both thoroughly enjoyed all the food we had and the impeccably dressed staff and service were very good. Our dining experience probably warrants 5 stars but I have only given 4 as I do object to the imposition of a £1.75 per person "corkage" fee for providing a glass and pouring a bottle of beer out which we would normally do ourselves.

Appallingly bad food with customer service to match. On ordering I was informed that the card machine was broke so it would be cash only. When I explained it needed to be a card payment they then miraculously said the machine was working (I smell tax fraud). Ordered meal totalling over £60 in value. On arrival I found the staff member to be be rude and somewhat aggressive. He took exception to my request for a receipt (more tax fraud?). On arrival home I was very disappointed to find the meal of very poor standard, cheap ingredients and the order mostly made wrong. Nan - Burnt, tastless and hardly any keema or cheese in it Lamb Chops - Burnt to a crisp and inedible Special Biriani - Specifically said King Prawn only - No shrimps. Came full of shrimp and little else Chips - Had been cooked for about 5 seconds, soggy, cheap tasteless, no seasoning Ordered Biriani sauce phal hot, just came plain with a watery Phal sauce thrown in the box Very little meats in the other dishes, clearly the restaurant is dying a death and, with food like this, I'm not surprised. I packed all the food back up and retuned it to the shop for a full refund. Again met with arrogance and aggressive behaviour from the staff who refused to refund the money despite the whole order being returned. Flat refused a refund claiming he couldn't refund on the credit card machine. Refused to refund in full despite all food being returned. Fortunately I paid on a credit card so will ask the bank to return the payment instead. Stay clear of here!!! I should've stuck to the far superior Taste of India where a warm welcome is always guaranteed from Abdul and his team. I stupidly thought that a Shahi Raj would be a welcome change.... How wrong I was!

Ate here tonight, lovely food and friendly staff! The lime pickle was very spicy so beware of that if you aren’t a spice fiend! Starters were quality and the mains were even better, absolutely no complaints whatsoever!

We visited the restaurant for the first time even though we live locally. The food and service was first class The Lassi drink was superb. They let themselves down as they would not serve a jug of tap water. This has put us off making...

The best dining experience we've had in a long time. Really genuinely lovely staff, amazing food and a wonderful atmosphere. We were impressed and next time we stop in Boroughbridge we will definitely be dining here again. We were slotted in short notice on new year's eve and it was a great ❤️❤️❤️

Decided to ignore the negative reviews, so glad we did. All the staff were very friendly and helpful not pushy, allowing us time between courses. The starter's and main courses were some of the best we have tasted in a long time, in fact the...

If you are in the area and enjoy Indian cuisine there is no other place to go. I travel for work and go all over the country and Indian cuisine is one thing I can’t live without. We actually had dinner from here 3 times over the course of the time we were working in the area and also went to some of the other Indians but as a final conclusion this place was the best. The first time we Sat in the restaurant, they don’t serve alcohol but do allow you to bring in small bottles to enjoy with your meal if you choose. The second time we came in to order to eat out. And the final time we ordered a takeaway. So we tried all three options and personally if I could go back I would choose to sit down each and every time. Don’t get me wrong the food was beautiful on all 3 occasions But it was the staff and the elegance of the atmosphere in the restaurant that made the meal go far further in my opinion than most places I have been. If I am in the area again in 2023 I hope there will be a table free after I finish work, because I can think of no where else I would rather go for Indian cuisine than here.

Beautiful atmosphere, very attentive staff and the most delicious food. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED if I could give 10 stars I would. It's currently a BYOB (bring your own booze with a £1.50 levy) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Had a takeaway for four people. All were very bland. They seem to have swapped spices for food colouring and salt. Very expensive too for what we got. Would expect much better quality and flavour for restaurant prices.

Meal was lovely, but, they charged us £3.00 to open our own screw top bottle of wine, they would have got a tip of more than the £3.00

Now Jaflong run by the owner Ivey and his team, every dish is freshly prepared and each dish prepared carefully and worth the wait. Light as air naan breads, melt in the mouth mutton. Unbelievable value for money too and byob. Great weekday offers including " Staff curry night" for £9.95 and 5 courses for £10.

Fantastic food, authentic and delicious. Staff couldn't do enough for you, they were extremly polite and made sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend this restaurant and will 100% return when we are in the area again. Outstanding value, for the quality and quantity we were amazed at the price. Would give 10 stars!!!

Where do I start.. venue is beautiful and looks amazing! Forhat was our waiter and he was always checking our food and drinks were ok and could not do more for us! The espresso martinis were the best we have both ever had and food exceeded expectations! Overall an amazing experience and we will definitely be revisiting!
