The Raj Mahal Indian Restaurant in Perth & Kinross

All good, but there seems to be a problem when you order butter chicken online and it comes as chicken korma, this has happened a couple of times!

We had a leisurely walk into Kinross for a few drinks and a meal. We hadn't booked anywhere, but managed to get a table here as it was still early. There were lots of people coming and going for takeaways and it was a nice relaxing atmosphere. The food was excellent and didn't take long to arrive. Hopefully not long before we are back again soon!

They don't even deserve 1 star, it was beyond bad. It was by far the worst Indian food we've ever had, it was complete inedible. I can still taste it in my mouth and its making me feel sick.

Tuesday night buffet, great atmosphere- friendly staff and great selection of curries. The starters were also delicious. Tried the

Food was fine but cold when arrived

Awful packet sauces and small portions. Naan breads nothing like anything I've had anywhere else. Not authentic and a complete rip off.

Never been here before. Was put off my some reviews but found everything to be good. Enjoyed my meal and would return.

Sadly disappointing. Had a takeaway. Staff unwelcoming. Dull atmosphere. Vegetarian food ok. Meat dish unpleasant Would not return

I'm surprised by any of the positive reviews based on my experience this evening. We ordered a take away. It wasn't close to warm, it was nearly cold. All the curry sauces were watery. I've never seen such watery curry sauces! Every dish was lacking freshness or falvour. None of the mets were tender. The chick was rubbery and the lamb tough. I could have made a MUCH better curry at home for a third of the Price. I can honestly say there wasn't anything nice about this takeaway. It was the worst curry I've ever had. Having come from a catering background I do NOT right bad reviews lighty but there wasn't an ounce of love put into our dinner. Waste of money, wouldn't ever go back.

quality food as usual, on time and a good price

Lovely food and great tastes. Regrettably, we were the only ones in , so not alot of atmosphere

I never recieved the right order and then we had to contact the other customer ourselfs to sort the orders. food wasnt warm as the muck up! I would like a refund for the much up. Thanks

Food great. Service top notch. Nice folks. Pretty good French red wine. An enjoyable evening.

Below average food. Ridiculous customer service. We stopped here en route to England while on a road trip through the UK. My son is severely allergic to dairy and we ordered a couple dishes for him after confirming with the staff that they are dairy free. They also referred us to the menu card that had vegan symbols for the dishes we were ordering. The Chana Massalam that we ordered from the vegan menu had dairy in it. Their excuse that we did not ask them about this dish in particular when in fact we did. They very casually said to not give this to my son. They did not even bother to remake the dish despite the fact their menu card had the no dairy symbol for this dish. Apart from that, it tasted so bad and had every other vegetable in it like carrots and green beans and 1-2 chanas. They charged us in full for a mistake they made and laughed at us that we made a wrong choice of dish as this is not the typical Chana Massalam. Absolutely bizarre. I will never go there again and warn anyone who does to beware.

Nan bread not good too thick and doughy. Hit the mixed tandoori grill, lamb was rough/chewy and the chicken tikka and tandoori chicken was dry. As for the curry sauce I asked for it was nothing like the sauce I'm used to too this was just like a standard curry sauce that had extra heat added tomorrow and was not pleasant too much heat not enough taste thie only thing I enjoyed was the tandoori paneer cheese starter

Food was OK but nothing special. Menu had allergens clearly however staff either didn't understand or weren't interested when we tried to advise our children are coeliacs. We ordered a prawn starter that was listed as not containing gluten and it came out coated in breadcrumbs. They had curry and rice and don't appear to have been glutened at least. Table next to us explained someone had a chilli allergy but they still had chilli in their korma.

On Monday and Tuesday evenings there is an all-you-can-eat buffet for 12.95 plus drinks. The buffet consists of around 10 main courses, mushrooms, vegetables, rice, bread and a manageable selection of salads. The taste was ok, especially for the price. Staff and service ok. You should either be there early (the buffet starts at 5:30 p.m.) or make a reservation in advance.

Excellent starter, drinks. Best chicken dish in Scotland...If you are tourist, don't miss this place..Try Monday buffet 😋

As I was passing through Kinross I decided to get a takeaway from the RajMahal. I took notice of reviewers who said their dishes were too mild and sweet and settled for Ceylon. This was only on the menu with meat, but they obligingly made one for me with vegetables. It was definitely neither mild nor sweet and it was delicious! Not merely hot but with a very distinctive flavour. I accompanied it with Vegetable Baji which was much less hot, but held its own with the Ceylon because it too had its own special taste, also delicious. The portions were large, especially at the very reasonable price, so I actually had enough to freeze some to look forward to another day.

I had some prawns and the inears were not clean. Disappointed and put me right off. Didn't eat in the end. Customer service could improve at bit with white shirt waiters. Black shirts were good though. I have Indian very often. Probably at least once monthly. This was my worst Indian ever unfortunately. Was not worth the money that for sure.

Very friendly staff. Decided to try something different from my usual chicken based curries and tried on the manager's recommendation the "Boatmans Curry" which was a mix of different fish and seafood. Very enjoyable Naan breads a touch on the small side for my liking.

We had a takeaway The food was really nice

Missing items, Rice and poppadums.

Excellent quality of produce great flavours and great delivery service

another great experience, food arriving earlier was perfect

This is why we stopped using this takeaway delivery as the times were always late but after over a year we tried again and the last two were fine. But here we are again, well over 20mins past the 1hr20mins quoted. Great food but not enough to wait.

Massive fans of the Raj Mahal, but for some reason, our curries tonight just smelt and tasted of margarine. Didn't stop us from eating it all mind you.. But hopefully this was just a one of!

Amazing food again, Such a good selection of different dishes over and above the standard Indian dished which they also offered. Really first class,The staff were great too helpful and attentive. highly recommended

Large party of 12 with various needs. Waiter(s) helped with suggestions and the food was fantastic along with the service.

Waited just under 2hrs for our meal git the food and it was cold there was about 3/4 bit's of chicken in the chicken korma. 3/4 bit's of chicken in the teka masla more sauce than anything never got our poppadoms that i asked for not very im pressed at all

SurprIsingly poor flavour in all dishes. Very disappointed. Bland. A

We gave you a second chance after you reduced your portion sizes, but that’s it. 6 pieces of lamb, 2 prawns, tiny pakora that is more batter than chicken, a half full dhal and special rice with the special taken out. Hugely disappointed again. Let us know when you start doing reasonable portion sizes.

What a disgrace! There's just no food in these orders anymore. I'll be asking for a refund!

A revisit tonight for a take away. Same dishes as tge last visit and again we were not disappointed. The food remained good tasy quality and good value, several years later from our last visit... recommended once again..... Ordered a takeaway fron The Raj Mahal tonight with delivery to the local Travelodge. Absolutely amazing tasting food. The delivery was eary, a pleasant young lady phoned to say the food had arrived. We had 2x tandoori chicken with sauces wich was amazing then a beautiful creamy chicken korma with honestly the best pilau rice I've ever tasted and a nice peshawar nann wrapped in a foil bag. Highly recommend this establishment and will definitely be back when next in the area. We'll done Raj Mahal.

Shocking service, the restaurant completed the order on line but the actual delivery is an hour late. I haven’t got it yet so can’t rate the food!

Ordered at 5:45 for a 7:15 delivery time. No updates at all from the restaurant, had to query where my order was on the app - was told it would be there at 8:10. Still didn’t arrive until after 8:30. Food was good, but the wait was extremely annoying as I felt I had ordered in advance and still was left waiting for my food for hours.

Absolutely woeful! We were a party of four who had booked a table to celebrate one of our parties birthday. We were seated at 5:55pm and did not receive our food until 7:20pm, despite our numerous reminders; when it did arrive it was tepid at best. There was no offer of dessert, coffee, cleansing towel or mints, nor of my change when I paid the bill! The restaurant continued to admit and seat customers even though it wa obvious the kitchen and servers couldn’t cope and it seems the restaurant is far more interested in attending to takeout orders. We won’t be back and would advise others to consider alternatives Saturday evening dining (Raj Mahal would probably serve you a takeout pretty quickly, quicker than dining in anyway!)

Went as a birthday treat with my friends..restaurant is pleasant inside..some staff pleasant others quite abrupt..initially it was quiet when we arrived at 6pm & got very busy as time went on..negative waited 1hr on our mains despite informing staff who just smiled & walked away with no explanation..there did seem to be sufficient staff just no organisation.. the people coming in & out for takeaways were served quicker. The food is good although could have been hotter. Did not get any hand wipes after meal which we have had in all other indian restaurantswe have frequented...then struggled to get the bill eventually had to go up to bar ourselves to get it paid..its a shame as food is good..service needs to improve & approach to customers..

Wait time was expected on a Saturday but meal was amazing as usual

I placed my order at 16:49 for delivery at 19:30, which I thought was decent notice. At 19:55 I enquired and was told my order would arrive around 20:10. I tried to call at 20:17 and there was no answer, so I assumed it was too busy. I was told my order was en route but I could make a request for some money back. Order arrived (I live 2/3 mins away but wanted to stay in hence the delivery request) at 20:35. Delivery lady apologised and said I could get a discount on a future order but never said how to organise that and I don’t want to risk another hour plus delay. Ironically my previous order arrived early which wasn’t actually convenient that time either so I’ve lost faith. Maybe we don’t order enough to count or regularly enough but our family have used the restaurant for several big group meals previously…..but for future ones, maybe not

2.5 hours and still hasn’t arrived . They are not answering phone so cannot chase this up. Terrible service.

I had to collect the order 2 hours after my order time

Food was amazing. Best we have had for a long time. Recommend collection rather than waiting for delivery

Food was good but 2 hours late on delivery as they were very busy.

Seriously good food delivered exactly on time and lovely, friendly delivery drivers too.

Very disappointed with the vegetable curry with the biryani, it had been emulsified with a blender, and was a very small portion

Delicious food, great delivery service.

Delivery time really let them down. I ordered at about 5-6pm for food to be delivered at 8 so plenty of time to organise themselves. Food was generally good, needed a bit more salt for my taste. Don’t think I’d bother again unless they had a deal on or something.

Decided to try the buffet. Hardly anything in the containers at 6-30 pm .Food replaced in dribs and drabs- but it didn’t matter because everything tasted the same and that was not very nice. Left feeling very disappointed and wishing we hadn’t bothered .

Really great food. Was nice and hot when it was delivered. It was delivered within the 20 minute slot I was given and the delivery driver was really nice!

Just moved into nearby area and delighted to find this place. Food is amazing. Ceylon curry perfect, just the right heat. It’s so good and so well priced I’ve had 3 takeaways this month. I usually have one every 3 or so months. All 3 tasted exactly the same so consistency is there. Excellent!

Super food with excellent service. Very nice staff.

Food tasted good however, it could have been hotter. Was as if it had sat there for a while before delivery.

Busy Saturday but estimated delivery way out. Would prefer realistic times to better plan evening. Food excellent when it arrived!

Food was delicious! Look forward to the next one.

Food was 1 hour and 15 minutes late, I am requesting a refund, please inform me of how this will be processed.

Had a takeaway from here 30/09/2023 food was amazing!! Service was excellent too! Very well presented, polite staff! By far the best takeaway we have had!

Fantastic restaurant. Good service and great food. Simply the best Indian restaurant in the galaxy!

Lovely food, very polite staff. Highly recommended.

Food was great staff were very rude no one asked if we wanted drinks after we eventually got drinks asked 3 times for another drink

I got the chefs special. It was all very good except the prawn dish. Very watery and no taste plus most of the prawns still had their pop tract still inside and hadn’t been deveined. The peshwari naan was, as always very good and full of taste.

If I could score zero stars I would have. Initially was to pick up order at 7, was there at 7, only to be given food at 7:30. Then upon eating the food the lamb was absolutely inedible like rubber and couldn’t chew through it at all. The Nan bread was burnt and extremely also. Ended up putting it all in the bin! Not impressed at all. Expect better quality from this restaurant! at £9 for a take away curry you would think they would cook the lamb well also the portions have gotten smaller and smal

Worst service so far…. Portions are the tiniest EVER. Cold drink in same bag as warm food. One hour and twenty five minutes wait time, twenty mins late. No update, despite request. No apology for Kate delivery. What a shame, I love this restaurant.

Off to a bad start - website says Buffett 5;30pm - 8-30pm. Turned up 5:30pm but buffet not ready till 6:00pm 5 starters - 5 mains - 2 side dishes Rice, nan, popadom, salad, lime pickle, spiced onions & sauces. Starters all tasted nice but lukewarm/cold Mains - again all tasted nice, when you actually got some. Bufffet trays only hold about 4 portions at a time. Waited a good 10 mins on most items to be refilled (About 20 people in restaurant at the time.) and witnessed this on numerous occasions with other guests. Puddings = Rice or ice cream - Non Existant. Good food, but let down by poor portion size buffet trays. Oh and if like me, ice cream is a necessity to finish off your meal.

Good food, nice service. Went for the buffet and wasn't disappointed

Use to avoid this place n decided to give it another chance, last 3-4 meals ice ordered have all been spot on! Good delivery times and still piping hot on arrival! Ordered a madras the last 2 times with the special rice and it’s been really good, generous portion size aswell

Use often for takeaway and mostly very good. Very tasty food and well cooked. When we eat in the staff are good and the portion sizes and presentation are spot on. My only issue that I like the hotter end of the menu and there is little choice compared to all the mild and sweet dishes. I honestly don’t want coconuts and cream. So good if you find what you want on the menu. I guess I will stick to Jalfrezi and Dhansak. Never been to the buffet will see if I can convince the other half to leave the dogs at home.

Average quality Indian, a bit overpriced.

Great buffet meal all freshly made, super selection of dishes and fair price . Will return.

Food had flavour and was hot, the pathia was sweet and sour as it should be, the only disappointment was the gravy was too thin for my liking which made it seem watery. Rice was nice and flavourful Chicken chaat on puri was good! Naan was nice

Decent buffet. Tends to get busy

I collected order at time given 👍 Food was delicious.

Fantastic! Really enjoyed our meal, everyone ordered something they had never had before. Nothing disappointed! Service was fast, restaurant was clean, staff was friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend.

Firstly, the food was decent, however, the service was absolutely appalling.

I think this is the best indian restruant i ever experinced the customer service and the food this is a treat for you to enjoy your day plus i love the dessert so much you cant go wrong with this type of restraunt

We Had Monday Buffet Meal it Was great family visit, We enjoyed lots Plenty of option starter & main dishes delicious food. highly recommended,

Always enjoy a good meal whether eating in (particularly their buffet night) or having a carry out. But tonight I felt I had to write a quick review in appreciation of great service. After collecting our meal we noticed 2 side rice dishes missing. I immediately called the restaurant to advise them. Within 10 minutes the 2 rice dishes arrived at our door and we don’t even live in the town! I’m aware that it was their initial error, but they are busy so I was impressed that they managed to get these accompaniments to us so quickly.

Lovely tasty take away. Really liked the fact the tandoori was not covered in red food colouring. Lovely deep flavours, fresh tasting. Husband had chicken tilka jalfrezi, really nice. Popadom tray was lovely, would recommend and will order again next time we are in town.

Just left this restaurant with friends. Have to say this is the worst Indian restaurant I’ve ever visited. We went for a buffet dinner, (please have something to eat before you go) this was always empty and waited & waited & waited for it to be topped up, only to be filled with one or two pieces. The food was awful however not as bad as the service, we asked for another drink and it never came. Staff were extremely rude.The final part of our horrendous experience was handing over the payment and the member of staff answered the phone and never offered me any change. Really really disappointed.

Excellent food, quick delivery. We all enjoyed our food

I had ordered from this restaurant though just eat and I don’t receive any food after waiting hours. I payed 16.55 for nothing.

I write this review having cooked our own dinner. Having ordered the food to be told it would be delivered an hour later, after a further 30 minutes and not arrived phoned and was told was only 15 minutes away. A further 30 minutes still not arrived, so cancelled my order. Please Raj Mahal communicate on realistic delivery times, your food is great but you are let down by your delivery.

We order very regularly from the Raj Mahal, it’s always our go to takeaway. Delivery’s are normally prompt and roasting hot but last night the deliver to ages despite getting a notification to say the driver had left and was on the way, another 40 minutes passed before it turned up, and it was freezing cold and the chips/samosas had gone soggy and raita was warm.

I did not actually receive the order so would like a full refund. The restaurant continually mark thenorder as delivered and it takes another half an hour to get here.

First visit since moving to the region. We dined in the restaurant. Food was excellent and portion size spot on. Service was very good and timing of starters and mains was perfect (the place was very busy and the staff managed it very well). Will be more adventurous with choice of dish next time (noticed they had fish dishes on the menu which one doesn't always see so might try one of those. Atmosphere was buzzing with people enjoying the food. Traditional Indian music playing in background which was lovely. Restaurant decor was modern and spacious. We had 2 starters, 2 mains, rice and naan with 2 beers and was just over £40.00. Excellent value. Will definitely be back.

Highly recommend. My food was delicious, arrived in less than half the quoted time and was super hot. Good effort guys!

While the food was great as always. The portions size is lacking in comparison to the price you charge. I’d say there there isn’t even one full chicken breast in our curry which is an absolute rip off. If your paying just shy of £9 for a CHICKEN curry (THE CHEAPEST MEAT ON THE MARKET) please make sure ppl are getting there moneys worth. U can buy a whole pack of chicken for just over £4!! It’s chicken not gold dust definitely not value for money the sad skinny little box of curry ur giving ppl is so greedy on your part. Food good but come on guys don’t be so greedy with the prices your charging!

I use to stay in Kinross and it was the place to go for a curry. But my last visit was not the best, service wasn't the best, favours in the currys weren't upto the usual standard I remember and to be far it was only 5pm on a Sunday so it was quite. It won't stop me from returning as I hope it was just a one off experience.

Food arrived right on time however, the 2 x butter chicken ordered arrived as 2 x chicken korma. Everything else was spot on and they'd even flung in some extra sauce and chutneys.

Food was cold. Lamb & chicken in the kebab were over cooked.. We gave it another go as not been happy in the past but wont order a take away again.

I’ve been to so many Indians and can honestly say this is one of the best ones I’ve been to. The flavour in the food is amazing and you don’t have to wait long at all. Very affordable too

15 mins after our supposed delivery time I had to phone restaurant to find out what was going on. Was told our food would be 10 mins, after another 20 it appeared, 45 mins after the initial delivery time. Only redeeming thing was food was very fresh and very good, appeared it had been cooked following my call.

Great food but you forgot the rather expensive bottle of Cola!

It's been several years since we've visited or got a takeaway. We have always thought it was mediocre in the past. But tonight's was excellent. Well cooked chicken and lamb and excellent sauces. Chilli garlic chicken and Shahi Bahar Lamb.

Great food and more or less on time! Food was fresh and hot we thoroughly enjoyed it all! Thank you

The Raj wasn’t very good for a while and we stopped ordering from them, but our takeaway tonight was great and we are so happy to have good Indian takeaway locally again.

Good fresh food delivery was very quick

Restaurant was a little chilly but the food was amazing

No problem with the food or decor but the staff barely look you in the face never mind in the eye…. Polite but not friendly. Maybe if your a local and go often they might give you a smile but all customers should be appreciated! They are very matter a fact and don’t thank you nicely for any tip given. Probably better as a take away than a sit in!
