The Raj Of India in Caerphilly

The food was luke warm when it arrived

Delivery good, food was a little cold but expected as a little distance to house. Overall okay.

Great food, polite delivery and only a few minutes late. Would highly recommend.

shame they didn't send the drinks but had refund for them

Great food and very attentive staff , an added bonus is that you can take your own drinks .

Food was cold and not cooked properly I would like a refund on this meal thanks

Great food and awesome service 😀

Worst Indian I’ve ever had it was tasteless and the “chicken” was pink. wasted money as it went in the bin and I won’t be ordering again

Sauce was greasy, food was average for the cost.

Normally always have a good food from this restaurant but unfortunately this time it wasn’t so good a tasteless korma and a missing item from our order :(

Food wasn't bad next time read the note left for order. Keema nan 👎

Excellent service and good quality food.

Food was freezing!! Please contact the restaurant. Need refund.

Awesome food and earlier than time given ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Turned up 45 minutes early , and there is only one word to describe the whole meal which was “Bland” . Sorry to say but the worst Indian I have had .

Ordered chicken biryani, which used to be excellent. Very disappointed- no whole spices, no depth of flavour, overwhelming use of garlic. Don't think we'll use you again unfortunately.

Food was cold, curry was greasy and watery.

What was delivered was delicious. Unfortunately a part of the meal was missing. Restaurant did not include the rice with the order. No point in phoning the restaurant as the rest of the meal would have been cold by the time they sent the rice out (not the first time this has happened). Thankfully I had some microwave rice in the cupboard; not the same, bus was able to at least make a meal.

always on time and quality is very good my view the best in caerphilly.

Gorgeous food as always! Very quick collection and great friendly service!

Good food and very polite waiter

Ordered a takeaway for 2 people on a Thursday evening. I’m not usually a fan of the Raj, as personally I think it’s a bit over rated from past experience. However, the food was delivered very quickly and was piping hot. It was absolutely delicious and was of generous proportions. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals and will be ordering again.

Delicious and great service cant fault!

food was tasteless and cold by the time it was delivered

Turned up super early. Poppadoms taste like fish and the portions for the starters are extremely small. Two tiny samosas which contained no chicken. Guess that'll teach me for giving them a second chance

The food I got was okay but one of the mains was missing and the other main wasn’t what I’d ordered. Tried calling the restaurant and nobody answered. Frustrating as the missing item was the one that we’d ordered for in the first place.

Had a delivery this evening, one of the worst Indians I've ever had. Makani no flavour, bombay potatoes awful. Rice lumpy. To say the cucumber and poppadoms was the best part is sad. Waste of £30 Indians in caerphilly are awful. AVOID THIS ONE

missing items from order, tried calling restaurant and no answer!

Wouldn’t give one star absolute terrible food thrown at you from driver food missing and then don’t answer the phone

Food was great the lamb was tender best part of the meal

Amazing curry again ! Highly recommended

I didn't mind it being early but if we had arranged for visitors to come at that time to eat with us they would have missed it

Tasteless curry, dry overcooked chicken, onionbahji burnt. Never again.

everything was perfect and hot!

absolutely disgusting, totally inedible.

Ordered a takeaway which I was really looking forward to as a treat for the family. £35 wasted. Really disappointed.

Awesome Indian food. A must go to place for curry eaters. Over 30 years experience and credit must be given. Highly recommended....

19th April 2024. Terrible meals. Both dishes were swimming in oil/grease. Popaddoms were smashed to small pieces, chicken was chewy and the whole meal was barely warm. Never again

We haven't ordered from here a while but the food was fantastic. Everything was fresh and hot. Delivery driver was was also great, happy and chatty. Great service. Thank you

I wanted to take a moment to share the delightful experience our family had at The Raj of India on Saturday night. It was truly an evening to remember, filled with exquisite flavours, a warm ambience, and impeccable service. From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted with genuine hospitality and ushered to our table with care. The restaurant's décor exuded a charming blend of traditional and contemporary elements, creating an inviting atmosphere that immediately put us at ease. Now, onto the main event – the food. Every dish we sampled was a masterpiece with vibrant spices and expertly balanced flavours. From the delightful tikka masala to the sizzling meat platters, each bite celebrated authentic Indian cuisine at its finest. The chef's meticulous attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the meal, from the tender meats to the freshly ground spices. One dish that particularly stood out was the Raj special murgh masala, unlike anything we've ever tasted. The interplay of spices and textures was simply extraordinary, leaving us craving more with each forkful. Of course, no meal is complete without a selection of sides and accompaniments, and The Raj did not disappoint in this regard. The naan bread was light and fluffy, the chutneys were bursting with flavour, and the assorted pickles added a delightful tanginess to each bite. We had a jug of water to complement our meal, however you can bring your own drinks. Last but certainly not least, I must commend the staff at The Raj for their exceptional service throughout the evening. From our knowledgeable server who guided us through the menu with expertise to the attentive waitstaff who ensured our glasses were always full, every interaction was marked by warmth and professionalism. In conclusion, our dining experience at The Raj surpassed all expectations, making it a standout culinary destination in Caerphilly and North Cardiff.

Came here on a Friday evening, restaurant was fairly quiet, we had booked but probably didn’t need to. Menu was extensive, regular curries but also had chef specials. Starters were a good size and tasty (we had prawn puri and onion Bhaji). Staff were very attentive and generally nice people. Would definitely come back if we return to Caerphilly.

Been a loyal customer for many years, used to make the best tasting food. Only reason for my rating is because it appears the food isn’t what it used to be. Lately it’s watery curry sauces, chicken not so good, soggy chips and stale poppadoms. Very gutted to be writing this review as they have been my go to every single week for years. But unfortunately the standards continue to drop

garlic naan was inedible, rock-hard and incredibly dry and chewy. The rest of the order was ok

Hour and 20 mins late . When I phoned they kept telling me it’s left but still waited around 80 mins. Like warm. Waste of money and no customer service what so ever.

Awesome food. Great service amazing value. BYO booze bonus. The friendliest restaurant in Caerphilly, they can't do enough for you. Lovely people great food.

Last minute here and omg what an amazing and professional experience, will defo be back,thanx so much for beautiful food 😀

Very attentive and lovely waiters, fast service and delicious food, best Indian restaurant Ive been to in Caerphilly.

We visited the Raj of India following a friend's recommendation, and it was such a good decision! The food was truly amazing: delicious, fresh and full of flavour. The components of every dish are made fresh and this comes through in the ultimate flavour of the dish. Particular recommendations are the Special Biryani and Murgh Sagwala, but every dish from starter through to dessert was delicious. You must try the 3 flavour kulfi for dessert too! And all this with a great atmosphere and extremely friendly, helpful staff made the experience a winning one! Looking forward to returning soon.

Ordered arrived on time. Food was inedible - masala was oily, lumpy and tasteless. The chicken was tough and overcooked. Had a couple of mouthfuls before putting it in the bin - really disappointing. Won’t be ordering again.

Food was OK apart from sauce it was a massala sauce was was just like a spicy oil was inedible so ended up with a dry meal.

As always fantastic service, the service is always the best I have had from any restaurant, always take so much pride in what they do. Great food, plenty of choice. Will be back again soon.

Not happy food cold chips frezzing curry no taste mint chutney like water no meat in the kema nan waste of £30 want be ordering again want a refund

Ordered here a few months ago, food took two hours and was freezing cold. Not even an apology. Ordered again today thinking it may have been a one off and they didn’t deliver half of my food and the attitude I got when they eventually delivered the other half was disgusting. (They took 30 minutes to redeliver meaning by this time my current food was cold anyway.) Won’t be ordering here again! if I could give a zero star rating I absolutely would.

Simple order (2x 3 course meals) was made at 7pm, asking for 8pm delivery. At 8:20 the app had marked it as delivered - but there was nothing. Used the app to ask for an update and was told it would come at 8:40. Arrived lukewarm at just gone 8.45pm - no apology. Two very different curries ordered - both looked and tasted exactly the same. HUGE amounts of oil had to be drained - the curry was swimming in it like I've never seen. Chicken Bhuna was fine; the lamb Gustava: barely any lamb amongst the vast amount of onion. "Medium" curry had NO spiciness at all. What meat there was was very fatty. Bhajis were the saltiest I've ever had and had gone chewy rather than crispy; shami kebab = 2x floppy bits of meat. To top it off they forgot to include the Naan. Nope. Not a chance I'll be using this one again.

Another very enjoyable meal from the Raj..Thanks

Freezing cold, tasteless and chips were rock hard

Amazing Food! Excellent Service!

Great food, staff are always lovely, good location with parking opposite. Highly recommended!

Delicious food excellent service luv the Raj my favourite Indian

This was one of their first deliveries of the day, 15 minutes early, and they still somehow managed to deliver it stone cold. Spent £13.80 on a Tandoori Mixed Grill and was extremely disappointed to find 1 burnt leg of chicken, 1 tiny kebab and 2 small pieces of chicken. It all arrived in a standard sized container with plenty of space left. It's £5 less for half a tandoori chicken which would have been twice as much food, and they didn't include the salad either, just an absurd amount of mint sauce. £3.80 for 2 TINY samosas. Too many times they've either totally forgotten things, it's been freezing cold, burnt, or the portion sizes have been absolutely pathetic. Usually a combination. Even the curries have barely any meat. Sadly I don't see this place changing as they've been like it for years. This will be the last time for us.

Stunning food and lovely staff. Highly recommend. Our girls loved it as much as us.

Don’t care it was 55 minutes early hahaaaaa, it’s the best Indian takeaway around❤️❤️❤️

The food was lovely and fresh but didn't receive the onion bhajis that we ordered.

Best curry house I have been too. Service was amazing from start to finish. Really lovely and helpful staff. Price was reasonable to. Recommend to all

moved the delivery time twice and I must say not the best nice but missing something

Missing gulab jamun but aside from that spot on

It was freezing cold. Preordered my food for 9 and it was late. Not happy

Waited just over 2 hours for our dinner. 1 hour after estimated time

Unfortunately we were delivered a dish we couldn't eat because of an intolerance (Malay chicken was delivered but we had ordered another chicken curry). Both mains delivered hot, had to reheat the starters and naan bread in air fryer.

I have not received my order yet it is saying it's been delivered

Wrong items delivered, waited over 1.5hrs for it to come, wouldn’t recommend.

food arrived very late even after phoning, and then food was missing. after chasing for food again they offered 35% off next order - I will not be ordering from them again. Dreadful service

First time meal from the Raj, food was great and the service was excellent, I will be returning soon.

Very disappointed with our order today. We have ordered many times before and never had any problems. Today the quality was really poor. Item missing (requested refund), no flavour to the curries (atleast the lamb was cooked and had a bit of flavour), onion bhajis were VERY greasy but flavour was nice, no flavour to meat samosas and very greasy inside. My partner had a keema naan which was burnt and had no keema meat inside at all!! We will not be ordering here again, which is a real shame.

Delicious food, worth the price. Lovely service. Takeaway but atmosphere was nice and relaxing. Will be booking to eat-in at some point.

Always order from here, never have a bad meal always hot and fresh and tasty!!! Xx

Incredible food, great service despite being very busy. The best Indian I've had in a long time, definitely the best in Caerphilly. Looking forward to coming back!

Pre ordered 3 hours in advance so no reason to be late.no apologies or reason given and didn't answer phone for the hour and half it was late

Lovely food but gave us the wrong dessert

Lovely food and superb friendly service

food was delicious lovely hot upon delivery and tasted delicious will definitely order from here again excellent food

Food was horrible. The lamb I couldn’t chew at all. The potatoes were mush and the onion bhaji was mediocre. Would like a refund as was Inedible

lovely food, thank you. Received a beef Lalusa instead of chicken but it was still delicious and the beef was cooked perfectly.

Seriously good food delivered promptly. Will certainly order again and recommend to others.

Even though there was a long line when we arrived, the wait was surprisingly quick. Kudos to the attentive staff who even offered soft drinks while we were in line. I've ordered takeout from this establishment multiple times, and they consistently deliver solid food and good service.

Chicken very hard in the curry couldn't eat it

Fantastic service, food was nice but needed more sauce. Maybe worth having larger bowls to increase the size of the volume of sauce as this can leave some dishes dry, like a Biryani. Also I would make the samosa in house you can do better than the bought in type.

Worth every minutes we spent in the queue. The staff is incredible, I shared my intolerance to onion and literally the whole staff worked the menu and made annotation and arrangement for the whole time, I was so impressed. Then obviously the food is amazing, the service is fast and the place is beautiful. I'll definitely come over again.

Curry? Just chicken onions and oil more like shocking I used to love this place think its time for a change

Best Indian in Caerphilly. Food always lovely, hot and on time. I even asked for a free sample of a curry I wanted to try, and fair play to them they put it in.

Rogan Josh was mediocre, nothing like the last one we had from here. Jalfrezi was ok, but all just warm and won’t be ordering again

Disappointed with the quality of the meal tonight. A shame as I was looking forward to it after an amazing from here several weeks ago

I would like to praise this restaurant, firstly for the warm welcome and outstanding level of customer service. The staff were so attentive, checking the food was okay and providing a very friendly service. I eat all types of food, but have a particular soft spot for Indian food. The standards were high, very clean and tasty, similar to some of the great Indian restaurants in West London where I am based. The ambiance was nice, authentic music and the restaurant was very clean.

Would definitely order from here again

I was a little unsure when I saw the reviews, but honestly it was lush. Huge portions (I had the korma), super nice and piping hot. I saw people complaining about the time but they arrived within 1 hour. Maybe not as fast as Dominos, but It's Definitely worth the wait! Don't listen to the negative reviews, they're clearly one offs

Wrong items delivered! Ordered fish delivered chicken!

Food was cold and wasn’t the best in quality

Food was nice, but could have been warmer. My wife's meal was excellent although I was a little disappointed with my Tikka Masala sauce which was a little watery. But overall we did enjoy the meal.

Food was everywhere in the bag must have been delivered by a f1 driver

Food was absolutely beautiful tonight. Thanks very much :)
