**Top-Notch Indian Dining in Kettering – Don’t Miss the Tandoori Salmon** The Raj in Kettering has become one of my go-to spots for a quality Indian meal. It’s consistently excellent – both in food and service. The staff are always warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive without being overbearing. If you're visiting, I highly recommend trying the **Salmon Tandoori** – it’s beautifully cooked, full of flavour, and has just the right balance of spice and smokiness. Another standout is the **Raj Indian Special** – a fantastic mix of flavours and textures that really showcases what the kitchen can do. Everything I’ve had here has been spot on, from the rich, well-balanced curries to the fresh, fluffy naan and perfectly cooked rice. The whole experience – from the relaxed, modern decor to the care taken in the presentation – feels like you’re in good hands. If you’re in or around Kettering and love proper Indian food, The Raj is absolutely worth a visit.

Absolutely loved my visit to the Raj in Kettering. Staff are very friendly and the food was 10/10 and there is a great variety to choose from. The service was very quick and the atmosphere was incredible. The restaurant was very full which shows it’s a popular place. The Raj Kettering is a top Indian restaurant and would totally recommend!

I recently visited The Raj, an Indian restaurant in Kettering, England, and I can confidently say it was an absolutely amazing experience! As it was my first time trying Indian cuisine, I wasn't sure what to order. However, the owner approached us with his fantastic personality and said, "Trust me." We took his advice, and I'm so glad we did! Every dish we tried was exceptional, bursting with delicious flavors that truly showcased the best of Indian cuisine. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful dining experience. They were incredibly accommodating and friendly, always ready to assist us with a smile. I left The Raj feeling satisfied and excited to return! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to enjoy authentic Indian food in a welcoming environment. I will definitely be back!

My family and I are visiting from New Jersey, America- and we recently tried The Raj, and I can confidently say it was the best Indian food I’ve ever eaten in my life. Every dish was packed with incredible flavor, cooked to perfection, and beautifully presented. No other restaurant even comes close to matching the quality and authenticity we experienced here. The staff were absolutely lovely—warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. We were not sure what to order- we trusted them to bring out the best foods and every suggestion was spot on. Dining at The Raj was unforgettable, and we’ll definitely be back.

During my most recent visit, I began with the mixed meat platter, a generous selection of tandoori meats that was both flavourful and perfectly cooked. For the main course, I opted for the recommended Elios Grill—a standout dish that combines tender meats with spices, offering a delightful blend of textures and tastes. Each bite was a testament to the kitchen’s expertise. The Raj’s ambiance is equally impressive, featuring a stylish interior with a welcoming atmosphere. The staff are attentive and professional, ensuring a memorable dining experience. Whether you’re a local or visiting Kettering, The Raj promises a culinary journey worth embarking on.

My wife and myself ate here to celebrate our two year wedding anniversary. I must say, the food was incredible. From taste to presentation. Everything was done with great passion. The waiters treated us well and were always there to help out, they were nice and respectable. I forget what my wife had for her main course, however I had the lamb shank. Thenger gosht, if I remember correctly. Really tasteful and tender lamb, fell right off the bone. Definitely would recommend. I believe the son of the owner, came and chatted with us, which was very nice. After we ate, we were invited to take a tour of the restaurant. The VIP room, hookah lounge and the 1K rooftop area. We were impressed by the attention to detail that adds to the atmosphere. I forget the name of the gentleman that gave us the tour (my apologies) however he was very kind. We had a great time at The Raj and definitely will be returning soon. If you like Indian food and excellent service, as well as experience. Go to The Raj.

When we first entered, we were given seats upstairs, as they were very busy, it was cold but then they moved us downstairs when there was a table available. My little one was offered a child seat too, the service was brilliant. The menu when i first had a look, was very lets say complex, as there were variety of dishes to look through and choose-i did feel overwhelmed, anyways we chose what we was already familiar with eating, and then ordered drinks. The food was very nice!for starters We ordered puri with vegetables and sheesh kebabs and then mix platter, dhaal curry, lamb biryani (not a fan of biryanis but my husband is) and chips, honestly couldnt fault the them dishes, i loved the puri with the vegetable curry. The total bill (i felt) was expensive plus with tip, but as mentioned before Service was brilliant! Probably wouldn’t go there with my kids, but with just husband/friends

We came to the Raj for my partners birthday meal. We moved to Kettering last year and had heard a number of good things about the Raj but this was our first time trying it ourselves. We absolutely loved the decor and found the staff really friendly and helpful. The owner was chatty and interacted with us too which is rare nowadays. When we explained this was our first time at the restaurant, a member of staff showed us around the building. We will most certainly be back, especially for the Sky Bar and Shisha Bar. Now to the food, WOW! It was absolutely exceptional. Thoroughly enjoyed by us both. The masala chips are amazing! The restaurant also appeared really clean which is a big plus for me. I hate going for food then when you go to the toilet, the toilets are grotesque. This is certainly not the case at the Raj. Really clean and stylish. We will definitely be back.

We are here for the first time recently and were not disappointed. The food was delicious with lots of variety (including an option for a customisable dish that lets you choose what you want it in ). Staff were really well presented and super attentive whilst not being overbearing and fabulous atmosphere. It has a glitzy wine bar vibe going on so you could easily come here for a couple of drinks prior to your meal if you wanted to. My one ‘complaint’ is the smoking area. You access this on the upper floor adjacent to the upper level restaurant area. We were sat at a table closest to the door and there were a few occasions where those wishing to smoke left the door open resulting in a blast of cold air. An automatic door closer would easily solve that problem: All in all an enjoyable visit and we’ll definitely visit again.

Following a recommendation from a friend had our first visit here. Lived in Northampton for 20 years and haven’t yet found a really good curry house. Until tonight! Environment was great, service excellent and the food was outstanding. Everything beautifully cooked. My wife is a little fussy and the waiter listened to what she wanted and said he would have something prepared which wasn’t in the menu. She said it was the best curry she has had. High praise. A little more expensive than the competition perhaps but well worth it. We will be back…..soon!

I can fault anything about our experience at The Raj. Our waiter Abs provided the highest quality service that you could expect in a Michelin star restaurant, helped guide us into dishes we may like based off our preferences and was an overall pleasant person to have involved in our evening. The place is decorated amazingly, great atmosphere whilst still being able to talk at a normal volume and I urge anyone to try the rooftop bar after their dinner as the drinks up there were lovely.

We were looking for a good Indian restaurant in Corby and we came across this place. They had a good reviews so we thought let's give it a try. We went on weekend and they were fully booked, but managed to fit us upstairs. We ordered mixed starts and main dishes. Food and starters were good except satkora chicken and lamb shank. Satkora chicken was bit bland and lamb shank was boiled which gave us a bit unrealistic taste. Overall it was a good place and food was good. Especially their toilet was clean and quite modern which was a bonus point.

Visited The Raj as I fancied a curry instead of the usual hotel food when on a business trip. Impeccable service from the whole Raj team ensuring guests get a great experience and feel valued. Decor is unique. I had the Dhansak which was made to my choice of heat. Chicken was beautifully cooked and in a rich sauce. So busy in there for a Wednesday evening, but service was swift but unhurried.

Visited on Saturday 16th November. Lovely warm greeting from staff who were friendly and very attentive. The restaurant is lovely, warm and inviting and is tastefully decorated. The tables in my opinion are a little close together and can be a bit snug for a party of 4 and over especially when the food and side dishes arrive. We had poppadoms and the pickles to start with , which were really tasty. We opted for a Chicken Tikka Balti, Chicken Korma and Chicken Tikka Vindaloo. We had egg fried rice, special rice, onion Naan and Keema Naan and Onion Bhaji`s. The food arrived hot and sizzling and was plentiful. My wife didnt like her Balti as there were no Peppers or tomatoes? Never had a Balti without these ingredients and my wife was disappointed with he flavour overall. The Vindaloo`s were nice and spicy but was it the best i have had? No certainly not. The Korma had a lovely flavour and all the dishes were well cooked with amazing spices. We all commented on the rice, not being as nice with big lumps of egg, the onion Bhaji were delicious and the Naan breads were divine. The staff were delightful and very attentive, and the service was superb. The price is a litter higher than you would normally pay at an Indian restaurant but it is lovely inside with excellent service. The parking could be awkward, so we parked in Sainsbury`s and paid for the parking. Would i come back for a return visit? No, i have had better Indian food elsewhere but it is down to ones individual taste.

As we entered the restaurant the stylish, beautiful decor is the first thing to catch your eye then to be greeted by the very smartly dressed staff who didn’t even flinch as we mentioned we had arrived 45 mins early :-) The food was cooked to perfection and presented beautifully, service throughout was top quality, nothing was too much trouble for any of the team. At the end of our meal we were greeted by a charming young man who offered to show us round the rest of this spotless, stunning restaurant but unfortunately we had not planned for such a fantastic experience and had other arrangements in place.

Once again I was visiting Kettering for the annual VJMC motorcycle club rally. I made a point of visiting the Raj with my friend as the experience last year had been so exceptionally good. Once again I was delighted. Staff were helpful and welcoming and the food was absolutely first class. Prices are very fair for such exceptional cooking. This is no ordinary restaurant. It is spotlessly clean, the staff are smartly dressed, the decor is fresh and modern and the welcome is genuine. I love it and will go again.

We were recommended The Raj and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the restaurant to anyone looking for great food. The atmosphere, staff and food were fabulous, possibly one of the best Indian restaurants in the area. Nothing was too much trouble, they offered advice on Vegan options and even cook off menu adding that extra special touch to cater for dietary requirements. Goyas and the team worked incredibly hard to make this an exceptional evening, thank you and we’ll be back soon. Booking advisable. 🙏

The Raj was a fantastic dining experience with its flavoursome dishes and warm ambiance. The menu features a variety of exceptional dishes. We had the Raj King Prawns & Tandoori Mix Grill. The staff are friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant visit. The Raj is a great choice for those craving delicious food in or passing by Kettering.

Very clean restaurant. dining for the first time. It was a delightful experience. The dining experience is outstanding. I started with the King Prawn Butterfly appetiser then had the Elios Grill for my main course, all of which were delicious. Great selection of drinks also (Alcoholic & Non Alcoholic). Excellent ambiance as well! Recommend to everybody.

I was so excited after reading the reviews and we left so disappointed. Starter of paneer shashlik and chicken pakora both flavourless. Mains prawn madras and Shobzi Karai with pilau rice and garlic naan. Nothing tasted of anything really, I’m not sure I’ve ever had a meal with so little flavour. The rice was dry and flavourless and even the naan bread didn’t really taste of garlic. I think the nicest part was the popadoms. The madras was very salty but no real flavour apart from that. All of this for the shocking price of £80+ (we had 4 drinks too). When asked how our meal was when they cleared our plates, I awkwardly said (I never complain) how it was, the waiter didn’t say anything - not a sorry or anything. When we asked for the bill another waiter asked how our food was and we said, again there was no reply. I can’t stress enough, I never write reviews or complain. The staff were lovely until the end when they just ignored our complaints. This is hands down the worst meal I have ever paid for.

Had the most wonderful dining experience to celebrate my sister’s 40th Birthday at Raj restaurant. The food was tasty, well presented and the staff were absolutely brilliant and so friendly and professional. I must also say, the most modern and best decorative restaurant I have been too locally - Loved it!!👌

Absolutely first class experience at the Raj. Staff were fantastic as was the food. Very well decorated giving a great experience all round. Even a bonus race motorcycle tucked away for viewing. Probably the best Indian restaurant I've visited for all round appeal. Highly recommend.
