Tried to book a table here NYE as we were visiting and the planned celebrations were cancelled due to the weather. I got a quick email reply to say they were fully booked, which I thought they would be, but we're doing take away. So we decided to order a take away. Well I wish we hadn't. I was really looking forward to it after reading all the good reviews but I have to say it was one of the worst curries I have ever had. Bland and oily. I will say the meat in it was good quality but it just didn't taste of anything. The food was delivered quickly but my partners main was missing.

Read moreJaflong is 100% the best curry house in Ripon. It's not even a close battle. Jaflong is miles ahead of Maharani and Moti Raj. I have a desi karahi Indian style and I'm not joking it's immense. It's how curry should be....deep flavours and lots of spice. The garlic pliau is also amazing. The other two are quite average "Indians" (both actually Pakistani / Bangladeshi as jaflong is but not as good). I had my family here this weekend we all love a curry every single person remarked how much better it was than your normal take away stuff. For ages I've felt curry houses in Ripon were quite poor.
