The Raj in Maldon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

ordered a lamb bhuna delivery and was delivered a different dish instead. called up and the man said they would give us 2 free ones next time. next time we ordered they refused this and only gave us some vegetarian dish. never received the lamb bhuna that I ordered and paid for.

Poor tasteless, inedible food. Waste of time and money. When rang to discuss, no interest given.

Food was flavourless and not pleasant. As this was a takeaway, I rang to discuss this. They wasn't interested and tried to tell me the Food should just taste of tomato. I'm not convinced a balti and bhuna should have lots more flavour. Disappointed is an understatement. What a waste of time and money!

Wow! The best food we have had in a long time, it beats any other similar restaurants in maldon, fair price as well!, really polite staff and very helpful quick delivery, thanks so much🤗.

Sorry to say but this was the worst Indian I’ve ever had. It’s gone so downhill over the years! More onion and sauce than any meat!! The rice is disgusting and they had run out of mint sauce apparently!! Food was cold, driver was rude and was an absolute waste of money!

Have used The Raj for c.15 years and watched the boys grow up, always enjoying their food and their service...mum and dad are excellent cooks! I would point out though, that they might alienate customers, if they continue to charge people £2.25 for an extra bit of garlic. I jokingly asked for the garlic naan to be extra garlicky, thinking that they would put a bit extra on top for nothing but was gobsmacked to find out that they charged me an extra £2.25 for a pathetic amount of garlic...I'm talking about 1/2 a clove! The mum and dad have worked too hard to build up a great little takeaway business to risk losing long serving customers for these irritable little add-ons. Come on guys!

I have had 3 or 4 takeaways from here now (over the last few months, not just today) and every single one of them has been absolutely tip top. With the 30% off of collections makes it unbelievable value for money.

DON'T EAT THE FOOD, IT WILL MAKE YOU ILL. WILL NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL

The veg jalfrezi was the best I have ever tasted and their lemon rice made a perfect combo. Plus we turned up just as they were closing and despite having started locking up, they let us in and were super friendly. Highly recommended.

This was the first time we ordered from here after getting a flyer though the door so thought we would give it a try. Fast delivery with no mistakes, food was hot and tasty nothing not to like we all enjoyed it and was even supplied with complimentary popadoms salad and dips which was a lovely touch. We will use them again and they offer free delivery so all in a great first experience for us.

This started really good, better food than the local sit downs/dine in, but seem to be dropping standards a bit. Their sheek kebab was the best. But had it recently and it was not the same at all, just not good. The lamb tikka was very tough and chewy too

Very good and delivered on time.

Best chicken or lamb Naga around, delivery is always fast and food is always hot despite us living a few miles from Maldon. Keep it up guys !

They came highly recommended from the pub next door (right next door !!) apparently couldn’t find me ?? Will never use again ( can’t comment on food as not delivered!!) had an amazing Jeck chicken from Chelmsford in the end , that amazing found me straight away ????

Fantastic great quality food. Best indian takeaway I’ve had in many years

This is my go to curry never disappoints and they deliver and good price for the quality of food 5 stars!

Excellent food and friendly fast service. Best indian takeaway in Maldon.

On fathers day in lockdown wanted something special- ordered from the Raj - portions were huge - food arrived on time, hot and all correct- tasted FAB one of the best takeaways we've had - fresh indian spices and lovely onion salad - Biryani was so big and fragrant- will not order Indian from anyone else now 🙂 thoroughly recommend

Amazing food, very friendly staff 👍

Lovely Indian take away from the raj. We got delivery and love the Indian from here. It was quite busy on Saturday night but well worth the wait. The food was really good. We ordered king prawn purée, which was so tasty. If you like tomato, onions spicy sauce with prawns on a thin pancake. Definately order this from the starters. Ordered chicken tikka masala, chicken jalfrezi, pilau rices and peshwari and keema naans. Also poppadoms with onion salad and dips. All was so tasty and piping hot when it was delivered. Reasonably priced too. You got 20 percent off and then if you go and collect you get 30 percent off. Definately the best Indian take away in maldon. Definately be ordering from there again. Like always really good quality food and full of flavour.

If you like old school Sylhet cuisine, you will love this takeaway. The food is rich and spicy and the portions are big. Exceptional food at a great price, with reasonably quick delivery too

The Raj offers quality food at reasonable prices. Lots of variety on the menu all cooked extremely well.

Have had some good takeaway meals but of late can only say they have been average and even poor. The premises also leave a lot to be desired, very scruffy and not exactly clean or welcoming and makes you wonder what the kitchen is like! Staff are friendly enough but prices seem to be increasing, nearly £30 for a meal for two, consisting of 4 papadoms, 1 Nann, 2 Main (Standard Dishes) 2 Pila Rice & 1 Veg Curry. Veg Curry was disgusting and looked like frozen mixed veg fried up in a sauce. We are going to try the competition in Maldon and see how it compares.

A superb Indian take-away with the added bonus of home delivery. Great menu with plenty of variety, food is well cooked and represents BIR style of cooking wonderfully. The prices are really good and are my first port of call when looking for a local curry. Add in the fast friendly service and you cannot help but leave a 5 star review.

The first port of call for me when it comes to a local Indian take-away. Good menu, good food,good prices. Very accommodating staff. They also do a home delivery which is very efficient. Why should I go elsewhere? My tip?..I give it to the delivery driver.

my granddaughter and I fancied an Indian takeaway and I phoned up just after opening. I ordered the dishes we wanted and they were delivered within the time stated by the Restaurant. lovely food.

Best Indian in Maldon, not greasy, good prices, it has turned out to be my regular

just had take away set meal for 1 for a 10quid . food was really good tasty. unfortunately I don't live locally but will go back there again. service is good

Arrived over an hour late, barely warm, the driver (who said he was the boss) lied about why it was late - lots of completely illogical excuses and then expected full payment. He wouldn't give a discount and took the tepid food away again. Lies and late food.

The Raj was always our first choice for our curry night. We've been away for a couple of years, and our experience of our indian has not been the best to be fair. So following a 30 mile round trip we made it back to the Raj, today and just the smell alone had me salivating!! Wow this is possibly the best indian food we've ever had. There is no way we'll be going anywhere other than The Raj. Service is always fantastic and even at busy times the food is served without delay. I defiy anyone to find a better tasting curry, for the price!! Five stars from us.

We have this once a week, it is so amazing! Never had a bad meal, and i'm very fussy! Half price on collection too, fantastic.

Never had a bad meal here and doubt I ever will. There always seems to be an offer of half price food if you are paying cash which also makes the Raj great value.

My girlfriend and I regually attend this restaurant for dinner.The service is always great, the food is very reasonably priced and the atmosphere is great I would recommend this place to everyone and my girlfriend and I will continue to return here!

The restaurant is nice but, i wasn't impressed by the food, could be more cleaner but the staff are friendly and welcoming.

Good menu, staff attentive, never been full when we have eaten there so not a lot of atmosphere. Food always good and lots to chose from.

Situated bang opposite Maldon's promenade park it's easy to find. Food is always of good quality and hot . We are lucky this is very local to us. Good value too.

Have used this Indian for the last 6 or 7 years. Small family concern, nice people, good food, great value Indian cuisine

You can't fault the food from the Raj good portion sizes and always tasty. The negative is the time you have to wait for delivery on both a Fri and Sat. More often than not you have to wait for near enough 1hr 1/2 for...

Been getting takeaways from the Raj for few years now, always had good food at good price. Decent menu and accommodating staff / chefs who will always cater for your needs if you want a different or specialty dish. My only negative is you can...

The raj takeaway provides an excellent menu which will appeal to all tastes. Ask for a particular dish to be hotter/ milder and it will be cooked to suit your taste. To say incredible value for money would suggest that the food is not on...

We don't bother eating from any other take away in maldon. If we did we would only be moaning that "It's not as good as The Raj". The value for money is just fantastic. On a Friday and Saturday evening there is usually a long...

Been coming here for over 15 years and the food is always great. Order your food on Friday and Saturday up to an hour or more before you want to eat as this take away is now so popular. One of the best take aways...

Been going here for the past 10 years at least, unbelievable value and great food. Lovely family run business.

Had diner with my wife three children and my mother and father in law which is something we do at the B B five or six times a year,from the greeting when we arrived to the fond farewell the whole experience was as usual faultless...
