Raba Indian Restaurant — Restaurant in Scotland

The food was not bad, korma and rice, was ok and for £10.

Initially arrived at 1.15pm and told that the restaurant was closed, no time of it me to sit in. (Restaurant is advertised 12-2pm).

Disappointed I was told a takeaway would be quicker and to do this. Order was then taken.

Literally after an order was taken from the table of two that must have just sat down in the restaurant and away he went with both orders.

Shame that really he couldn’t be bothered to have me in the restaurant.

Didn’t provide any cutlery for my takeaway, knowing I’d need it as I was originally going to sit in.

I don’t understand why you advertise something you don’t offer or at least say a time for latest order, because it appears that the lunch time restaurant times...

Decided on an Indian / Nepalese meal on my last evening & Lerwick & made a decent choice with Raba. It's pretty much directly opposite the Viking Bus Station & Fort Charlotte so easy to locate. This was a Thursday evening & restaurant was very quiet with just a couple of other tables occupied. For my meal I chose Prawn Puri as a starter & Chicken Tikka Rezala. Both options were very good with tasty sauces & good quality ingredients. Decent value at around 28.00 with a Cobra beer, soft drink & coffee. Nice meal, friendly service & would visit again...

Let's start with what was good. The waiter was very pleasant and the Indian railway lamb was tasty.

What was less good was the "king prawn" (quotes because they were pretty tiny) dish that gave my wife serious food poisoning about 6 hours afterwards.

I should have been suspicious because we were told there were no king prawns, then, all of a sudden there were. There is clearly something amiss with the food storage or food preparation at this place, I won't...
