  “Excellent meal which I enjoyed. Nice surroundings. My only complaint was that the waiters wanted to bring the next course before I had finished the one I was one I was eating so felt pressured. Shame because the food was good.”

  “I have been coming nti the Raj since they opened in the old restaurant, I use to recommend it to all my friends as the best Indian around. a big fan off anar and the staf, I helped anar do some bar/cocktail training for the staff ... I was extremely disappointed to see false advertisment of there garlic chicken starter in the online. On the website it shows some lovely garlic fried chicken but in reality it was a bland & dry oven cooked chicken with some bland garlic seasoning.. pick 1 the picture on the online menus.. pic 2 is what i actually got”

  “Had a fabulous night on Saturday celebrating my friend’s birthday. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff are truly amazing. The restaurant was very full and this added to the atmosphere being brilliant. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, they are always very attentive. If you haven’t been to the Raj then book a table sometime, you will not be disappointed.”

  “The Raj in Culcheth is always fantastic. Every time I visit, the staff are genuinely warm, welcoming, and always go out of their way to look after me. The service is consistently friendly, and they make you feel like a valued regular from the moment you walk in. The food is always delicious, fresh, and full of flavour — you can tell they take pride in what they do. Whether it’s a quiet meal or a takeaway, they never disappoint. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Highly recommended!”

  “Our experience here was 10/10 from start to finish, starting with extremely quick service. We arrived at 18:40 and we were there for an hour in total but we never felt rushed to leave at any point, we were offered to have a drink at the bar first but we asked to be seated, the food and drinks came really quick. All of the waiters we had were extremely polite and professional, I took my coat off and went to put it on the back of my chair, but a waiter noticed this and put it on a hanger near the door for me - when we left, the man who seated us put my jacket on for me and held the door for us on the way out, I felt like royalty! The food was absolutely incredible - I said to my partner, and I quote, “this is up there with the best Indian I’ve ever had” and it really was. I had explained to the waiter I don’t like my food too spicy but still have a little kick to it, they delivered this to perfection. Perfect portion sizes, not too much but not too little either. 10/10. The price is average I’d say, it cost just over £50 for 2 of us to have x2 poppadoms with dips, 2x curries, x2 pilau rice, x2 garlic naan breads, x1 chips to share and x2 soft drinks. When our bill came, we got 2 shots of baileys and 2 werthers originals with it which went down nicely. We will definitely be visiting here again, cannot recommend enough. I didn’t manage to get a picture of the garlic naan breads as they were too big to fit in the picture.”

  “12 June 2024 ‘Wandering Wednesday’ this week took Hubster Neil, Son Max and myself to Raj in Cultcheth, our gorgeous Rhi wasn’t able to be with us this evening but I’m sure will come on our next visit, as the dishes were so, sooooooo good. Starters: Max had vegetable samosas, Neil and I both had King prawn puri…… Entrées: Max had Chicken tikka, chilli Massala…. With pilau rice. Neil had Chicken tikka Jalfrezi with mushroom rice. I had Akbari Chum Chum….. Tandoori chicken breast, spicy sauce, minced lamb, sultanas and sliced almonds….chunks of tomato and onions, along with onion rice. 2 peshwari naans to share…… it was all top…TOP scran, the dishes were piping hot, with great presentation….. Definitely up there with the best curries we tasted. The restaurant sets right back with plenty of room inside. The wait for food was just cooking time….. The waiters were very well mannered and attentive…. Perfect service. It does get busy, so booking ahead is advisable. Would we be back….. ‘Most definitely!!’…xxx❤️”

  “Fantastic food and service from The Raj. We really enjoyed the food and the service was perfect. We ordered the mix starter and chicken chat puri for starters, so much flavour and variety to choose from. For the mains we ordered chicken tikka naga and lamb curry with special mix briyane. It tastes aboustley amazing. The spice and the flavour was fantastic, perfectly cooked and fresh taste. The service was spot on from start to finish, they made us feel really welcomed. 5 star service from The Raj team. I would highly recommend to family and friends. 20 mins away from Gullivers World which is a bonus. Thank you very much to everyone at The Raj.”
