About Tudor Raj

Tudor Raj is an Indian restaurant on Rounceval St in Bristol, seated under red velveteen chairs and crisp white linens with a fish tank in the room. The onion bhajis arrive larger than tennis balls, served alongside poppadums and a pickle selection that includes a red sweet chilli option and yoghurt dips. The menu runs to house specials such as the Raj Special and Joypur Signature biriyani and curry variants, and tandoori chicken appears both as a main and worked into curries. Waiters bring dishes to the table and take orders throughout the meal. It operates on a walk-in basis with no reservations needed, and weekend nights tend to fill with large parties, making the room busier and louder than earlier in the week.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out the onion bhaji, described as larger than a tennis ball and a "gigantic crispy golden thing", with the chicken pakora, tandoori chicken and crispy poppadums with a pickle selection close behind. The Raj Special biriyani, the Joypur Signature lamb and the house specials draw praise for flavour and a slight kick of spice, and one diner likes that the dishes are not swamped in sauce. Servers are repeatedly called welcoming, polite and attentive, and one reviewer describes the room as crisp white linens, red velveteen chairs and a fish tank. A few note it gets loud when large parties are in. The main complaint comes from a long-time regular whose usual lamb dish arrived chewy and hard. The restaurant offered a replacement after a phone call, but that reviewer found the replacement just as bad and suspects a cheaper cut or a new chef. Another reviewer found the price slightly higher than recently but felt the food justified it. Elsewhere, staff replaced a curry without hesitation after a beer was knocked into it, and one diner left with a single red rose as a parting gift.

    “Food was excellent, with good portions of quality tandoori chicken in the curries. The signature dishes are different and definitely worth a try, and the servers were attentive and really polite. Will definitely be returning!”

    “Last five years we've always been very happy with the food, only me last night we order our usual Lamb dish, only to be huge disappointed by the meat how chewy and hard it was, we followed up with a phone call back to the restaurant to let them know that we are shocked but how bad it is and it's never been like that before they reacted immediately by offering a replacement, although half of our order was already getting called while we went back to collect a replacement Lamb, but even the replacement was still as bad as the first dish. I'm not sure if you're now change the meat to a cheaper cut, or you've changed your chef in the kitchen, who is less experience but we are very disappointed that your Food standards have dropped.. you were usually our safe bet for any Curry dishes but now I see that we need to look elsewhere.”
