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

Onion bhajis draw repeated praise, described as gigantic and crispy, with several diners also singling out the biriyani, particularly the Raj Special, and the Joypur Signature lamb dish for its flavour. Poppadums and the pickle selection, especially the sweet chilli, get specific mention alongside tandoori chicken in curries. Staff are consistently called welcoming, attentive and hardworking, and multiple reviewers describe mishaps handled well, one couple had a spilled curry replaced without hesitation, another diner received a replacement lamb dish after calling to report it chewy and tough, though in that case the replacement was reportedly just as disappointing as the original, a notable exception after years of satisfaction with the same dish. One reviewer felt the price had risen slightly compared to recent visits. The setting is repeatedly described as traditional, with linens and a fish tank creating a comforting, timeless feel. Several mention returning regularly on weeknights, and one recalls being sent off 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.”
