  “The food and service were delicious. The staff were incredibly energetic and friendly. In particular, Rashad was a highlight. For dessert, my mum ordered an alcoholic floater coffee and she wanted minimal sugar as she is diabetic. She asked for one teaspoon at most. Rashad brought a coffee with perfectly floating cream and he had only used half a teaspoon! Magnificent!”

  “This place is outstanding… warm , friendly staff ,welcomed and treat well by Rashed especially. And what can I say about the food… Keemas, baltis, madras , the bhunas and even all the added sides were cooked expertly , all at a reasonable price. Tempted? You’d be a fool not to try!”

  “We’ve been coming here for years and have never had a bad experience. The food has always been delicious and the service excellent. Tonight was no exception and at the end of our meal we were served a delicious homemade mango dessert on the house which was a lovely surprise and very much appreciated. We really can’t recommend The Raja highly enough.”

  “We had dinner here as we were stay the weekend in the Kings hotel. We were very pleased with the service and friendly nature of all the waiters. The food was great. I chose the lamb shank which was spiced nicely and came with pilau rice and a curried vegetable side. The wife chose the chicken shashlik which was also very tender. Our bread choice was a keema naan which made it back to our room for a late night snack. I would recommend the Raja of Kent and would definitely go again if we were in the area.”

  “Absolutely Delicious – A Hidden Gem! We had an amazing meal at The Raja of Kent, and it exceeded all our expectations. The food was absolutely delicious - fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. Every dish was cooked to perfection. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming, making the whole dining experience even more enjoyable. The restaurant has a lovely, relaxed atmosphere, and you never feel rushed. If you're in Tenterden, this place is definitely worth a visit. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and would happily return again. Highly recommended!”

  “Excellent curry house with a wide range of dishes including venison and fish. Best biryani I’ve tasted. The Tikka Fish beautiful too. And the staff were very attentive. A real surprise to find such a good curry house in the middle of Kent.”

  “Fantastic meal at the Raja of Kent - best curries we've ever had! Wife had vegetarian Chilli Masala, I had Xacuti Chicken, with shared Mushroom Rice, Aloo Gobi, and Naans. It was delicious! Service was on point, with all the staff being friendly and helpful too. Can't recommend highly enough!”

  “The restaurant is nice enough and staff are friendly but I would avoid eating here if you are veggie/vegan or have dietary requirements. I am vegan and allergic to dairy and asked staff specifically for a vegan option to their set menu. My partner and I repeatedly said that we are “vegan” specifically. The staff repeated this back to us, assuring us that they would bring some vegan food over. They brought the food, placed it down stating again at that the food is vegan. I ate one and a half spinach rolls (which were lovely but that’s not the point) before asking a waiter just once more to confirm that it was vegan, before being told that the food I had just eaten contained cheese. The manager came over and I explained that they had just served cheese to someone with a diary allergy and who is vegan. The manager said he was sorry and removed the food. I think this was a genuine mistake but I just wouldn’t risk eating there again.”

  “Made a large order for collection for our family get together on Mother’s Day, portions were a little on the small side however the food was very tasty, until one of us found a disgusting small dark hair in our meal, this spoilt the entire meal for everyone and we were all put off of our food. We phoned the restaurant to explain this, they were unapologetic and said “well it was only in one meal” they would refund only that. Obviously this was unacceptable as our whole family meal was ruined. We spent £88.50 and all felt sick and couldn’t finish our meals and the restaurant seemed to think this is acceptable and were quiet rude.”

  “Lovely Staff! The restaurant wasn’t crowded so there were plenty of staff available; they all checked on us but not one became too persistent, it was the perfect service ratio which is a rare thing to find! Food was scrummy. Succulent Chicken and Scallops, the Jalfrezi was a Devine firework of flavours instead of just heat. Thank you!”
