New Raj Mahal — Restaurant in East Suffolk

Overall it was just OK. It's under new management and the previous reviews don't reflect the current experience. Chicken was dry and not a lot of flavour in the sauce. There was only one waiter present who was clearly overloaded managing us, the only other 2 customers and all the online orders. We were served food in good time after ordering and nothing was missed, but just the quality was very average and boring. The drinks were limited to cans of soft drink still served in their cans. The decor was very dated and not very comfortable. It all felt very much like someone's nan's old home kitchen just cobbled together. Don't have an alcohol licence either yet.

I'll definitely be back in the future to try some of their other...

We wanted 5 separate rices for party of 8 as having naans too. one coconut rice and the some pilau and plain. He said he would do mushroom, pilau and coconut. They did do this but then he charged us for 8 rices (and to be honest there was about 5 orations so why charge us for 8?). We know this as the bill came just as he number. We asked for break down and he had over charged us really by about £10. Food good but be adamant about what your want or you get want he wants...
