Fine dinning Food amazing Service was the best Couldn't fault anything

This has to be the best Indian in Kettering the atmosphere is fernominal and the food is top notch and the staff are so helpful and very polite so good 👍

Our first visit but it had been recommended. Gorgeous food. Will return

Nice Indian Restaurant with good service

Beautiful restaurant with fantastic food and great atmosphere. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming.

Arrived at 11pm to be greeted by the very friendly staff. We was shown to a table and was immediately given our menus and asked if we would like drinks. Poppadoms and chutneys were brought to our table. We ordered our food and once the owner realised we came from Essex he was very attentive and reminisced with us as he used to live near us. He was so friendly and the food we ordered had to be the best we've ever eaten. What with the beautiful setting of this restaurant together with the excellent food and attentive staff was a wonderful end to our evening. If you are ever in Kettering or anywhere nearby please visit this restaurant. I can assure you that you will not be disappointed. Thank you for a wonderful evening

Just back from the most amazing Mothers day meal at the Raj kettering . The food , service , staff , atmosphere and cleanliness were 110%. Dietary requirements were accomodated and remembered from a previous visit. Thank you for an amazing meal .

Went with 4 friends and were welcomed. Sat at our table and we’d ordered drinks within the first minute. We ordered popadoms and the main at the same time. Popadoms came and approx3-5 mins later our mains arrived. 2 of our party were still eating them. Food was ok meh. Reluctantly didn’t finish the popadoms, had around 20 mins to finish the mains and then the bill came. Whole meal took an hour. We were crazy rushed so much that I’m now left with indigestion. Spent £150 in just under an hour. I asked if they had a busy night and the waiter said yes. Feeling ripped off. BYW service charge on bill, I think around 14%. Certainly not worth it! Avoid and go Bengal up the road. Far better food and way better.

Party of five, three of the main coarse dishes were tasteless and lacking alot spice. The chicken used was the frozen pre cut rubbish. Extremely disappointed with the food

Brilliant atmosphere and service 10/10. Staff were always on point. Best restaurant experience I’ve had in a long time.

Visited The Raj for the first time and we were blown away by the standard of service and quality of food, Aimaan paid lots of attention to our requests and made us feel comfortable from the moment we walked in, best curry night we’ve had in a long time! Will definitely be coming back soon!

Absolutely amazing food and outstanding service. Our Valentine's Day dinner was enjoyable in your restaurant.

Brought my partner here for our Valentines Day dinner and have to say we were NOT disappointed! From the moment we entered the restaurant the attention to detail was amazing with red helium filled balloons hanging from the ceiling creating a lovely romantic atmosphere. The staff were incredible, highly professional and courteous and despite the restaurant being fairly busy, quickly ushered us to our seats. We were served our meal fairly promptly considering how busy they were and the meal was amazing! Thank you to everyone at the Raj for making our evening special.

Service was fantastic but the food was bland and wet.

Can’t praise The Raj enough, I’ve eaten many curries from many towns but this one is top of the list , the attention to detail, great ambience and decor made this a dining extravaganza . The staff were welcoming and attentive and most importantly the food was magnificent and presented beautifully. A perfect evening & dining experience just wished I lived nearby 😁

Best tasting curry I’ve ever had, incredible service and lovely decor and atmosphere, staff is amazing friendly and hospitable, overall best curry house.

The nicest staff, the nicest food and great experience. The best curry house I have been to. Everyone is well mannered and try and give you the best time. Will definitely come here again.

As a group of tradesman working away from home for the week looking for a decent restaurant can sometimes be challenging. We ended up coming to the Raj twice in one week. The restaurant was busy Monday and Thursday and the food was amazing. The staff - particularly the family based hierarchy of Father and 2 sons proved to be the difference. The hospitality and professionalism was second to none and they backed up their confidence with real quality meals. Both nights we changed our choices and were far from disappointed. The meals and hosts were excellent. There isn’t another word to describe it. I would wholly recommend this restaurant to anyone living in Kettering and anyone visiting. One very happy customer and will visit this restaurant again if the opportunity arises..

Absolutely brilliant. From start to finish you have to visit this restaurant. The food was amazing and equally was the service.

Very nice food and very polite staff, though getting a bit borderline on being too attentive. Throughly enjoyed my chicken puri (without the puri) starter and chicken tikka main with mushroom pilau. Not sure if I missed it last time but a 12.5% service charge for a restaurant in Kettering is out of order. That took a point of Diet Coke to over a fiver!!

Every time I go to the Raj it exceeds my expectations. Wonderful meal tonight and my daughter from Brighton was very impressed. Immaculate service as usual - what a treat!

Been going here for 33 years, and goyas is the best host, closely now followed by his well trained children. Bill

Great evening for our works Xmas party.

I absolutely love this wonderful restaurant I think all the food is absolutely delicious plus a service and tribute to the staff and restaurant. They can't do enough for you here. I have been coming for over 20 years that must say something.

We had a really lovely time at the Raj for our first visit. The food was delicious, there was loads to chose from including some really interesting dishes and the ones we had were great. We tried the honey chicken, muktaj and lamb pathia but can't remember the name of the one that was flambé but they were all gorgeous. All the accompanying dishes and sundries were cooked perfectly and we will definitely return.

Nice atmosphere and friendly staff . Nice curry house in ketteing Town. Good atmosphere in the restaurant and the staff are very attentive . Food was on the whole ok and I would probably visit again .

The service was amazing they took time to specialise a meal for a particular dietary requirement, wonderful ,thank you !

Booked the Christmas Day meal, food was delicious, staff were very welcoming, great atmosphere, loved it, thank you all 🙏🏻

We visited the Raj for Christmas dinner 2023, it was delicious and the service was fantastic. Timing was great and no one was ever left waiting for a drink. Would definitely recommend.

Just enjoyed the most fabulous Christmas Day Lunch at The Raj, Goyas and his team did a remarkable job. Everything was simply excellent from start to finish. Loved it all. Bravo to all

Excellent Indian in Kettering. Would highly recommend 👌

Staff were excellent and very professional. Our drinks and meal were served very quickly. The meals were superb. I couldn’t fault any part o our evening. Great atmosphere great staff, fantastic food. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

The Raj is great for Christmas meals as there is something for everyone. They offer tasty Vegan options and the owner gives me confidence that they understand Veganism. I had a Vegan Channa Daal & Chappati for a starter and a Vegan Shobzi Karai with boiled rice and Khasta Roti. The staff are friendly and accommodating. The restaurant has a busy welcoming atmosphere. A great experience! L

Award winning restaurant, recommended.

Didn’t wait as long as last time to come back here. One of the most polite and professional set of staff I’ve ever experienced. Huge credit to them and made a real difference to the experience. The food was modern Indian food, well presented but the stars of the show were the staff.

Great food great service great staff,defo recommended for a great curry

Excellent food, service and atmosphere.

Had a wonderful 1st experience at this beautiful restaurant. The staff are attentive and interact very well with the customers, they had a comedic way of dealing with the customers that added that extra touch most restaurants don't have. The food was great and the decor is unlike any other indian restaurant I have ever been in, it is modern and kitted out to a very high standard. I will definitely come again and recommend to others.

My second time eating there, this time I ordered take away, it was ready in half an hour. Very welcoming and friendly staff. Amazing food, one of the best restaurants I’ve ordered from. I highly recommend this place!

Always good food eating in or takeout. Friendly staff. Good attention to detail.

The company leadership team has been here many times, so we decided to have a work celebration to celebrate Diwali as always, the food was delicious! Great efficient service, the staff are amazing. Atmosphere was good, they catered for all our needs. Very clean, lots of effort to keep tables clean after each course. Would definitely recommend for all.

Amazing night - we were so well looked after by the team for our Company night out. Food, service and cocktails were spot on! Thank you for a fantastic time.

We held a work curry and cocktails night to celebrate Diwali. The food and service was excellent and we were really looked after. Thank you and well done to the team at the Raj!

Can't comment on atmosphere so much as I haven't dined in. I have collected though and the restaurant is always busy with loads of waiters to cater to the diners. The food is always amazing! Good portion size, reasonably priced and delivery was much faster than expected. Highly recommend.

Great food, always delivers a top meal and great service for a decent price.

Went there for shisha and it was too expensive.. there's no one but me there and that says it all.

The staff are always so welcoming and the food was delicious

Really lovely place to eat, the staff are very friendly make you very welcome make you feel very relaxed the food is lovely

Amazing restaurant & they do shisha as well! Top notch customer service - great staff. Definitely best restaurant in Kettering.

Delicious food! Great efficient service, kind staff. Atmosphere was good, busy but not too mental that you can’t hear yourself speak. Very clean, lots of effort to keep tables clean after each course. Would definitely visit again!

This place just doesn't belong here. It is so upmarket/posh. Great staff and I was only getting a takeout!!

Very professional service, food was great, best Bangladeshi cuisine around town!! Would 100% recommend, the lobster is a must try!!

Great place, excellent food and service. Popped upstairs for a cocktail after the meal.

Nice upmarket style Indian restaurant with a very extensive menu. They also have a cocktail bar upstairs to use before/after your meal and also a covered terrace area for smokers. The staff are fantastic, very professional.

Made a reservation days in advance, was turned away on the day by very rude staff. Royal Bengal is much better.

I had one of the worst experience. Not worth visiting. I asked for spicy food and he put a lot of heat. Doesnt understand food. I had interaction with the owner, not a nice fella.

The Raj is located adjacent to sainsburys. The food is incredible and very reasonably priced, with second to none service. Nothing is too much or difficult for the service staff. Customer service is sensational, and the restaurant is so clean you could actually eat you food off of it. Highly recommended and very beautiful inside and out

This is by far the best curry house the place is beautifully decorated staff are very very friendly and helpful and the food is amazing i travel quite far to go here but never disappoints

We had a wonderful evening at the Raj, incredibly friendly service and delicious food. We even got a private tour through the restaurant, shisha- and rooftop bar.

Great food very flavoursome with a good portion sizes. The staff are great, all well turned out and attentive and very polite will be back. Never a bad experience at the Raj

The food we had delivered was spot on. Highly recommend The Raj.

Possibly the best curry house I've visited... excellent service and amazing food

Good atmosphere Good services Good foods

What a stunning meal and a lovely evening. The food was beautiful but also the service was amazing. Thoughtful without being intrusive and all the staff were really attentive. Will definitely return.

After using the Raj on many occasions, both dine in and take away I was extremely disappointed with my last experience. I always approach the restaurant to resolve any issues but on this occasion my comments were not welcome! We ordered food for 2 people, both meals arrived tepid temperature and inedible without reheating. Prawns and chicken dishes. On receiving the meal and proceeding to plate up, the food was cold!! I called the restaurant, yes to complain but gave the benefit of doubt that the delivery process may have let them down! The gentleman on phone duly argued the fact and insisted it was not cold! I told him as a Chef with many years catering experience, and an understanding in the industry I do own a food temperature probe, which clearly showed temps of 45 & 35! With this again I assured them it was probably not the kitchen team but the delivery process, where he was in total denial and would not listen to reason! Take positive feedback, accept you got it wrong or I’ll take my business elsewhere! Ps. Look are tye 1700hr booking in the system for my details and I’ll happily take a call!

Recommend by friend as our first time in Kettering. Fabulous restaurant with a great friendly atmosphere. All food so fresh and well presented. Need to book.

Haven’t been for a few years and we were impressed. Service, food and atmosphere all excellent. It was busy, so would advise booking,

Lovely decor nice atmosphere and great food. Staff welcoming and friendly. A little expensive but worth the extra

I’ve only just moved to the area for work and was initially unsure about this place. Their service was excellent, very welcoming and friendly staff. The starters were incredible. Filling and well cooked. Perhaps next time I won’t have the biryani as it was a...

From walking through the door, you’re immediately greeted by friendly, smiley staff. The deco and atmosphere of the restaurant is incredible, you immediately feel comfortable. We had the platinum experience and could not fault it. The manager spoke to us attentively trying to find our...

Food out of this world and a very unique atmosphere definitely a restaurant that you think to find in central London but no it’s in Kettering.also reasonable prices for the quality of the service you find 5/5 definitely

Guaranteed great food, solidly courteous service, and a great atmosphere. Go here for some of the best Indian-Subcontinent cuisine in town.

Had the absolute pleasure of dining here on Saturday evening with my wife. From the time we entered, the staff were all friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much and the food was a delight. Only 20 mins from Northampton, this is definitely a gem I will be returning too.

Outstanding! This restaurant can't be bettered for food, service or ambience. If I could give it 10 stars I would! Very efficient and welcoming staff, owner is hands-on. Truly first class. Thank you very much. Will be back!!

Wow. You have to try to believe it. Great food, great service, great restaurant.

This restaurant was a completely chance discovery - and a fabulous one. My old school pal and I were attending an event on the outskirts of Kettering and were so pleased we found this place. Spotlessly clean and a modern tasteful interior. The food and...

Had been a few years back on business and was nice to be back again. Firstly have to say the politeness and service by well dressed staff was excellent. Food was very good with a tasty chicken chaat followed by a chicken tikka stir fry...

Extremely arrogant owners - food everage - shame good decor though

Impressive on every level! Attentive and polite staff, very tasty food, stunning decor and a lovely atmosphere. Extra thanks to the owner and superstar Haaris, for their 7 star service throughout. Exceptional!

Myself and my partner visited this restaurant for the first time on a very busy 'Father's Day' after recommendation from a friend. The restaurant has a pleasant atmosphere, is very clean and the food is delicious. The customer service is outstanding - very friendly and attentive staff. We look forward to returning again in the very near future.

Very clean restaurant. First time dinning. We had a lovely experience. The food is out of this world. I had the king prawn butterfly for starters and the korma for main, both dishes were exquisite. Great atmosphere too! Recommend to anyone.

An absolutely 5* experience from start to finish. Upon entering the restaurant we were immediately made to feel welcome. We were shown to our table in the elegantly decorated main dining area. After a few minutes our drinks arrived and we started perusing the menu....

Went with family as one of her work colleagues recommended it and wow this place is the best we have had a Indian meal from walking in the door the service was second to none.Then the meal yet again absolutely I highly recommend this to anyone to go this place should be in London.i will be returning as words can't describe how fantastic this place is.A**********

Special treat to visit The Raj excellent as usual

Great food and wonderful staff! A gem in Kettering 👏

You know, we were struggling to find a restaurant in Kettering which served food on a Sunday evening. As visitors from Australia, we found it hard to find something open in the evening. The Raj not only welcomed us, they were totally non judgemental. We were not "dressed" for dinner. It did not matter. Food was great. Service was great. Sure it's not the cheapest eat in town but we had a great meal and were made very welcome. If you enjoy good South Asian food, check it out. Lovely people with a social conscience.

Great food great service. A fancy restaurant but unpretentious. We were made very welcome. Staff were very attentive. On a Sunday evening when we were running out of options for dinner, these Aussie visitors were made to feel very comfortable. Worth a visit.

A Great restaurant to enjoy Indian food and being served.

Hadn't been to The Raj for a while and joined a group of work colleagues to celebrate the life of a special man whom we had the great pleasure to know! Prebooked the piano room for a group of eleven. Greeted with a smile and...

Great place always busy but great service

Absolutely spot on, nothing at all to be improved on, best Bangladeshi restaurant going, food is 10/10, cocktails are banging, service is fantastic staff are friendly highly highly recommend

Top quality service and excellent food, great value.

My daughter booked to go here. The whole evening could not be faulted.

Absolutely delicious food and amazing service. The owner went above and beyond to get us to try new/different dishes. We felt really special. Absolutely everything we ate was tasty, a generous portion and good quality ingredients. Unfortunately, as we live in London, it will be hard for us to return any time soon but if ever in the area again, it will be our first place to visit.

Absolutely fabulous place, super tasty food, very nice service. We felt very looked after. The place has a great atmosphere. We very much enjoyed it and will definitely be back.

I Ordered saag paneer, got cheddar cheese paneer. This is dishonest practice. The manager please refund us this.

Came here on the off chance of getting a table for dinner as we hadn't booked on a Friday night. Staff were attentive and accommodating. Fantastic food and fantastic service, even made me a meal that wasn't on the menu! Great atmosphere and a great...

Enjoyed a lovely meal here with family on my birthday
