Nice meal as usual. Only downside this time was that some of the poppadums were cold and rubbery. Not lovely and crisp like they usually are. Other than that, very nice evening.

Enjoyed a lovely meal with the family. The younger members of staff were very helpful and friendly, not so the more mature staff! Unfortunately we found the noise levels too high, making it difficult to have a conversation, I did request for music to be lowered,which it was, but then turned up later! The food was good. There didn't appear to be any disabled toilet facilities, only one was upstairs.

Reception: blowsy woman and teenage son, friends of the staff, at the bar made sniggering comments about arriving customers. Service abrupt and charmless.

A return visit to The Raj and it was lovely as ever. The food is yummy and I like that their dishes, unless stated, are really tasty without the heat so my husband can have something other than a Korma! Highly recommend the Lamb Chaana Palak. My favourite. Well worth a try if you've never been.

This is now our regular Indian restaurant every time we visit York - no trip is complete with dinner at The Raj. The service is always fantastic, everybody is very friendly and can’t do enough for us. The food is delicious and always outstanding. The Raj is one of our favourite things about York.

We were a party of 6 visiting the Raj. When arrived we were quite concerned as there were no other guests in the entire restaurant, it was 8.30pm on a Sunday. However, within 15 mins all table were fully occupied, the atmosphere was great, service excellent and the food was superb. Highly recommended but don’t go too early :)

This is our second visit to the restaurant. We visited at Christmas time previously and were so impressed that went again whilst visiting York on a theatre trip. The food was just as good as on our first visit and the staff were friendly. Today was a bonus as the weather outside was hot and the restaurant was fully air conditioned.

The food and service is excellent. We had a lovely evening of top food and fun. The music was a little loud to start with but was turned down on request. My only tip would be that if you like spicy, you need to ask as I find their dishes mild but very tasty.

The star were sure, was not inviting. When we arrived, we was not welcomed. I booked the place for my wife s 40th birthday, and messaged them beforehand for something nice. This did not happened, and as an apology they gave her a small frozen piece of cake. Was highly disappointed. I will never ever recommend this place to anyone.

Had another lovely meal at The Raj tonight. Very yummy. It was great that my husband could have a mild dish that wasn't creamy. Although my dish was really tasty, it was supposed to be medium hot but was no hotter than my husbands mild dish. I didn't ask for it to have a kick as I assumed it would be. It was saved by being so tasty and the lamb was so tender. Also had a cold draft and nearly had to put my coat on. Would have been a definite score of 6 if it hadn't been for the lack of kick in my dish. I know to make sure I ask for this in future. I will definitely be back.

The food and service were both very good. Our only complaint is that the waiter refused to make our dish spicier than the menu indicated it would be. He said if it was too spicy we would not eat it, but being experienced Indian food diners, we thoroughly enjoy extra heat in our meals. Other than that, we would recommend this restaurant and hope to return one day.

Poor service. We were sat near a very large noisy group in a back room. Felt like they forgot about our booking even though i’d Spoken to them to confirm it earlier that day.
