Jaipur Restaurant — Restaurant in South Derbyshire

My wife and I have just been to Jaipur for the 1st time.As we have moved from Birmingham we found indian restaurants & take aways locally a big disappointment.We have tried a number of places & yet to find 1 that gets to anywhere near the standard that we had become accustomed to, until now! We ordered a chicken pakora to share as our starters and we were certainly not disappointed with it the chicken was as tender as you could wish for the batter being very light & fluffy although the onion salad could be a little more plentiful the mango chutney was rich & mint dip had a little sharpness but absolutely lovely. For our mains I chose my usual chicken tikka pathia the sweetness &richness of flavour was just as it should be but not overly hot i in the past ask for the spice to be toned down a little but on this occasion i didn't bother, while my wife chose the butter chicken that was as smooth as silk with no spice just how she likes it with a vegetable pilau rice of which there could have been a little more & a peshwari naan that was so light & delicious it could easily be the highlight had it not been for the quality of the rest of the meal.The food was amazing as was the welcome by the service we received, if I could say an area to be improved upon it would be that the ladies & gents toilets were very cold but all in all a great experience.We will return with friends sometime soon. Thankyou to...

Very disappointing. My rice and naan were ok but his garlic rice was full of quite large chunks of garlic rather than crushed or finely chopped. Currys were poor…his chicken tikka methi was very pale, definitely not the lovely dark colour we’re used to elsewhere and when I asked him what it tasted like he said ‘it tastes of something but I’m not sure what’. My lamb tikka jalfrezi didn’t taste like lamb and was swimming in oil. If you want a excellent quality meal or takeaway close to Repton, go to Waters Edge in Willington.

Edit: check out the reviews for this place on Tripadvisor….not quite...

Great place to relax and have good food.

The staff in this restaurant are really good, very pleasant and not bugging you all the time.

I had the vegetable samosa to start, which was very tasty, for main I chose the Naz Special Jalfrezi with chicken and keema rice. I must say this really hit the spot ! Nice amount of spice and bucket loads of flavour.

The price is also very reasonable, so easy on the wallet too.

I am most certainly one happy customer and will be returning for some fab food...
