Raj Of India — Restaurant in Kirklees

Very cheap prices here, but unfortunately decorated in a very cheap way also. I ate there last night and we were the only customers there, the onion bhaji were greasy and seemed to be cooked in oil that had not been changed in some time, I noticed there were three or four large flies that kept hovering around as we were eating, the salad that came with the papadoms wasn’t very fresh or crisp either which was disappointing. Onto the main meal of king prawn sizzler with a madras sauce which was absolutely fine but unfortunately the rice was of a cheap quality with to much Gee added which just made it soggy and heavy, the fries were just about ok but would Recomend an oil change for them as well as the bhaji. I’ve given them 4 out 10 as a result. The criticism from myself is designed to be of a constructive nature and hopefully not deter anyone else from eating there, who knows my standards may be to high and other people maybe absolutely fine with their experience of eating there?.. some decent flooring wouldn’t go amiss and a re think on the colour scheme, cheap pound shop mirrors and wall decor, black, white, purple, brown used together as the colour scheme just doesn’t work although it seemed very clean and uncluttered, shame about the large flies as it kind of put me off eating to be honest and the fact that the staff seemed completely oblivious. Not a great review from me and I hope they can...

This is a nice looking restaurant on the main road through Holmfirth. Close to centre of town. The staff are a friendly and efficient bunch of lads and the reviews looked promising. I don't know if we are spoiled by top quality Indian Restaurants in my town but the food was not very good. I had a chefs special dish. Which was very creamy and less spicy than a korma. This was my choice and I should have checked. The chicken pieces were all exactly the same size, very poor quality like they were from a frozen supply. My wife had a lamb balti. The meat tasted like stewed lamb and the sauce was gritty and powdery in texture. The keema nan had a teaspoon of minced meat in it which was kind of sprinkled over the whole naan and the mushrooms in the bhaji were were like pencil erasers. Nothing was fresh..all frozen and tinned. Not a top quality meal at all. We ate as much as we could but didn't enjoy it. Beer was good and the price was reasonable. But would never visit again. Awful meal..seriously if you think this is good food then visit our local...

First night of a holiday in Holmefirth so a meal out was called for. Really liked that popadoms and pickles turned up as soon as you sat down without having to ask. We decided on a veg thali and a meat thali both very reasonably priced. These were the best thalis that we’ve ever had and I couldn’t finish mine despite trying very hard. The staff...
