Check your bill carefully. While the food was very good (not as great as others Indian we had during our trip), you should check your bill carefully. Ours had a random £15.75 added on in the middle of our string of main dishes. We hadn't noticed until we had already gotten back to our hotel, but seems a little suspect. This is the second time this has happened, once in another restaurant. Is this becoming a "London" thing? Also note their prices for beer and sodas published on their web menu vs what is on their physical menu in the restaurant. It's twice the amount in the restaurant for Kingfisher draft and for sodas. read more

The Rajdoot - Extra £15.75 charge check your bill carefully! - Indian Near Me - London, LND

For all the comments about English food, there is no better place to get Indian food besides India. Rajdoot's Indian cuisine is very good and has dishes from numerous regions of India. I have been several times and oour service was very good. I prefer the downstairs dining area because there is not a TV playing over the bar. The staff was watching sports during our diner. Glad I ate here. read more

Had lunch at Rajdoot last week and it was pretty good! Ambiance is nice although the top floor is a bit tight so just be aware of that. Service is very friendly and food came out quickly. Food is pretty good...definitely recommend the Tadka daal and roti. Aloo Gobi was also tasty. Prices are reasonable...we'll likely return. read more

This is the best Indian food in London. The chicken tika Marcella is moist and has great flavor. Many assortments of naan's . Definitely worth a try! read more

The Rajdoot - Indian Near Me - London, LND

Wow! This place is a reason to go to London in itself! Frankly, we may have been captured by spaceman and deposited at this restaurant because we don't remember what we ate except that it was "delicious." The proprietor came greeted us, set us up at a great table outdoors, and walked away. I saw him whisper to a waiter who, characteristically waited a few moments (get it?), then came over and took our order. He was competent and able to answer our questions--and didn't comment on our strange foreign accents. When we asked for a dessert recommendation, he provided one quickly. But we split something else. It was awwwsome! If you're in London, or even if you're not, navigate your way to The Rajoot. Don't confuse it with the place next-door, which I'm sure is great, but it's not where we intended to go. The Rajoot is delicious and tastes like you took a trip to India. read more

Wow!!! This is the best chicken vindaloo I've had since living in India!! The staff is very sweet and fast! It's a cute corner restaurant that has an extensive menu and great bar selection! read more

Nice cuisine and some interesting flavors for Indian cuisine. Some of the dishes were served temperature hot and some were just warm. The Chicken Korma and Saag Paneer were just warm and were sweet which I've never had with those dishes. Service was quick however we were a bit put off at having the waiter hawk us for an additional cash gratuity. read more

The lamb is tender , the food is spiced good. Garlic non was great, service was good I would recommend the place again Yummy read more

Delicious indian food! It was one of the best I have eaten so far (better than most of the NYC indian foods). We were so happy w/ all the foods we consumed. Our most favorites were the chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, and some other thing the staff recommended. All delicious! Staff were super friendly and nice! read more

Just a wonderful dining experience. Shahed's service was fantastic, the meal was wonderful, and just a great overall vibe! Heading back to the States tomorrow but will be recommending The Rajdoot to everyone who asks. read more

ABSOLUTELY DELICOUS FOOD. addicting dishes, and VERY friendly waiters and a cool building! You basically go downstairs and it's like a whole new world, neon purple lights and the cutest folded napkins I've ever seen. read more

Good food, good ambiance and Hussain (I hope I'm spelling it right) was a super host/waiter. He answered questions, assisted with substitutions without hesitation and was up for my friend's birthday shenanigans which made for a good time. I would definitely revisit and certainly recommend them. SN: some pf the dishes were sweet but you have to keep on mind, they have to adjust to tastebuds of the masses. Bon appetit! read more

Mizan is so kind and You can tell they truly appreciate how important the whole dining experience must be to deliver a truly wonderful experience. They deliver alright.

I came here for dinner the other night and had a great experience. We made a reservation for a party of 7 people and were immediately taken downstairs to our table. My first impressions was that the restaurant was very presentable and that the staff were very friendly. My mom and I got there slightly earlier than everyone else in our party, so we started off with a bottle of wine and a couple of starters. They had a pretty nice selection of wines on their wine menu. We started off with the "cheese and garlic naan," which was excellent! However, I think they accidentally gave us just the plain garlic naan so I was a little bummed about that. Regardless, their naan was fantastic. We also all each ordered the "chutneys" (onion salad, pickle, mango chutney, & mint sauce) which came with their crispy flatbread. This was really cool to try. All of the chutneys were very interesting (and some a little spicy)! We also started with the tomato chom chom (fried crispy tomato stuffed with homemade cheese and minced meat). I highly recommend the tomato chom chom--great flavor, interesting, and delicious! It was done perfectly. For my entree, I ordered the "lamb tikka masala." I also split an order of rice with others at the table because it goes really well with it. The lamb tikka masala was also really good! I highly recommend it. The lamb was tender and flavorful and the dish wasn't overly salty. Overall, the service was very good. In fact, it was some of the best service that we have had while in London. The only thing that made us a little uncomfortable was the fact that the server was lingering very closely to us and watching us as we were figuring out how to split the bill amongst our party. We all felt a little rushed because of it. Other than that, everything was wonderful. Clean, nice restaurant, friendly staff, fair prices, good service, and great food! I highly recommend :) read more

Great experience here last week. I had the papadum to start and Chicken Tittka masala with rice and cheese nan. Was excellent. I will be back. read more

I am sorry to say that this place is mediocre. Very nice staff, but food was bland, and actually tasted sweet as if they're adding sugar to savory Indian dishes. Just weird and sad. read more

We came here after a stroll in Regent's Park and had a terrific, vegetarian lunch. We came at noon and were practically the only ones in the restaurant. We drank a local beer and it was good - lighter which I liked. The menu has many meat and vegetarian options so it's hard to imagine you wouldn't find something you like. We really enjoyed the garlic naan, sag paneer and a cauliflower dish whose name I cannot now recall. We went away stuffed and happy. I would come here again, definitely. read more

The food is outstanding. I come eat here every time I'm in town and bring someone new with me to experience the great food. Service is quick and I am always seated without a reservation. The place is small so I do recommend a reservation if eating after 7pm. A few small outdoor tables for seating when the weather is nice. Overall an excellent meal every time! read more

Amazing Indian food!!! Wow. Authentic and flavors are so strong. Def coming back. Hussain recommended the chicken and my friend the lamb and both were great. Get the garlic cheese naan! Quick, fresh, and filling food! Highly recommended and thank you hussain!! read more

Really enjoyed this little place tucked away off of Baker Street. We enjoyed the vegetarian options and the cozy atmosphere. Another great Indian meal in London! read more

I was recommended this place by a friend and it didn't disappoint nor wow. As a warning, space is quite small and waiters and other patrons are always jostling in the very narrow aisles between tables, especially between tables. At one point, someone swept utensil (and thankfully not food) off our table as they tried their best to squeeze Portions are moderately sized but moderate is all you need for heavy Indian food. The chicken tikka masala is much less creamy than I'm used to, but the chicken was very tender. We also ordered tarka daal which I personally don't love, but my dinner companion seemed to appreciate. Highlight was the garlic naan which was well seasoned and perfectly pillowy at the edges. Unfortunately, I felt that the food we ordered lacked depth of flavor compared to my expectations of Indian food. read more

A delicious meal for lunch yesterday with my wife. Ali was an amazing host and all the extras only made the meal and experience even better! We came to London wanting some delicious Indian food and scored at The Rajdoot! read more

London is supposed to be one of the best cities for Indian food. We were booked for Kanishka later in the week so I wanted to try a more ordinary place. We ordered the typical US standards (pappadam, nan, CTM, and saag paneer). Compared to what I am used to in the US, the food was overall sweet. To be fair, the chicken in the CTM was well cooked unlike the rubbery chunks frequently served. Overall, it was OK. read more

The Food was amazing.I had started of with the chicken tikka biryani and I must it was delicious.The service was amazing and the restroom was clean unlike the restaurant beside it. Overall the service and food was amazing.Also I was quite surprised that the manager was helping out and not ordering the staff to do extra stuff. I recommend going to this restaurant if you are looking for authentic Indian food read more

This was one of the best indian food we had so far, it beat most of the NYC indian spots we had. Our most favorites were the chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, and some other thing the staff recommended. All were delicious! Now, I know why British Indian foods were top notch! Since coming back home, I miss Rajdoot foods very much. read more

After 2.5 years out of the UK, I was craving a good curry, and Rajdoot has been a favorite for many years. Delicious food, as always - the chicken tikka starter was light and juicy, about the best I've ever had - and a lamb specialty for the main course. It was very early doors on a Sunday evening so I had the upstairs to myself (other than a steady takeaway/delivery flow). I was given excellent, attentive service by Shafar. Thank you to you and the team! read more

It was a very nice lunch today. I had lamb vindaloo, saag, and rice. I was happy that the food wasn't oily, as we have that problem sometimes in the US. The portions were just right. Service was also friendly and quick. I'm also happy about the free WiFi. read more

Same chefs. They cook for senior citizens and serve the people with no flavor! Indian food with no taste of India I can make hot water at home. And it's free. Really! read more

Stop reading this review, call yourself an UBER, and get to The Rajdoot. This is the best Indian food in London. We had the signature dish paired with the coconut rice... something sweet with just the right amount of spice. The chicken was cooked to perfection and the quality of the meat was superb. This place has been around for 54 years and is run by the third generation to take the reins. The service was fantastic. I come to London around 4 times a year so it will take me a few years to have everything on the menu... but I'll be working on it. read more

Excellent service friendly service by Ali The manager was super welcoming outside too Food was fabulous!!! Thank you for a great experience on a summer rainy day! read more

Ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala here, and loved it! The chicken was tender, and the flavour was really great. The naan was also soft, and the rice was well done. At the end, when you pay, they will also give you really great tasting chocolates!! Would definitely come back!! read more

I came to this restaurant with four of my friends and we were seated right away. The restaurant is nice and clean. We ordered samosas, courgette combi (vegetable side dish), balti chicken chilli, chicken tikka masala, naan, and special fried rice. The balti chicken chilli was my favorite and was spicy, but not too much. ***THE WAITER WILL TRY TO UPSELL YOU!!** For almost everything you try to order, the staff will suggest a different meat, or the chef specialty. This one was one thing I hated about the restaurant because the staff was difficult for me to understand so it was easier to just go along with what they were saying. This led to me spending a bit more money, unfortunately. If you are a student, make sure to ask for the 20% student discount. read more
