Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out the chicken biryani, described as full of rich flavours with a balanced spice and the most authentic biryani one diner has had in the UK. Close behind are the chicken lollipop and samosa chaat, with others naming aloo beetroot, apricot chicken curry and prawn madras. Several praise the welcoming, friendly staff, and one describes the chef visiting tables to ask for feedback. Birthday and Valentine's celebrations come up repeatedly, with one diner receiving a complimentary cake and another a sung birthday song. Reviewers also call the interior beautifully decorated and the prices reasonable. The main caveat is small portions for the price, as one group of two families sharing dishes felt. Another reviewer found the Delhi kebab a let down and noted there were no non alcoholic drinks at dinner. One diner said the server politely stopped a table from ordering a fourth dish because they already had enough, and they took leftovers home.

    “I went there for twice. Both times I enjoyed the chicken biryani. They are very delicious and feel the authenticity of biryani I have ever tried in UK. The side curry, the smell of biryani, the location and the service of staffs are 5 stars.”

    “The food was full of flavour. If this was nearby my home, I would be a regular visitor. The attendants were very warm and friendly. We had planned that each person orders a different menu, however after the third menu, the person taking our order politely told us that we would have enough already, which I found very considerate. The portions were surely more than enough that we took the extra home with us.”

    “Fantastic Food & Outstanding Service! ​I recently visited Raj Kitchen in Swansea and had an absolutely wonderful experience. ​The food was absolutely gorgeous—bursting with flavor and cooked perfectly. On top of that, the service was brilliant; the staff were incredibly welcoming, attentive, and made us feel right at home throughout our meal. ​We also recently tried their Sunday buffet, and it was amazing! There was a fantastic selection of dishes to choose from, and everything tasted incredibly fresh. ​If you are looking for top-tier food and great hospitality in Swansea, I highly recommend Raj Kitchen. We will definitely be back!”

    “I travelled from the US to Swansea and was genuinely surprised to find indian food this good, and this meal was easily one of the highlights of my trip. The food was outstanding and was even better than some of the best I've had in NYC. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, and the interior was decorated beautifully. The price was also surprisingly reasonable considering the exceptional quality of the food. To top it all off, the owner surprised me with a complimentary cake for my birthday, which was absolutely delicious and such a thoughtful gesture. I would gladly travel back just to be able to eat here again. Will definitely recommend this place to my friends and family traveling to the UK!”

    “We were in Swansea for the weekend and found this restaurant after a quick Google search. We were pleasantly surprised by the ambience of the restaurant- beautifully lit and busy. We were seated quickly despite being over 30 mins late for our reservation. We tried vegetarian dishes and the food was Indian (not Bangladeshi). Authentic and tasty overall - not 5 stars because they had no non alcoholic drinks for dinner and the Delhi kebab was a let down. Overall would give this a 4.6.”
