Feedback
Reviews praise Raja Monkey’s creative starters, attentive staff and varied menu but note occasional slow mains, uneven spice levels, snug booths and spotty temperature control during busy nights.
Wonderful food for all palates including Vegans/Vegetarians. I would highly recommend a visit, service was also an added bonus, well-done guys I have considered ordering a takeaway meal but the prices are the same as eating in the restaurant which is not cheap.
Our table was booked for 7pm. We ordered starter and main. The starters were served pretty quickly but the main was not brought out to us until nearly 9pm. Staff then put the air conditioning on so it felt as though they were trying to usher us out quickly after we ate our main course. I asked 3 times if the AC could be turned down or redirected and although 3 different colleagues agreed to turn down the air conditioning, the AC remained on and I was absolutely freezing. We also ordered tea and coffee afterwards but this did not warm me up either
This was our first visit which I wish we had been sooner . The manager greeted us and escorted us to our booth which was ideal. He explained the menu and gave us some great information on the food. We ordered some recommended dishes and we wasn’t disappointed. The food was amazing and totally diffrent from your run of the mill indian restaurant. The portions were just right. We had red wine and bottled beer that was lovely. shame not draught but no problem. We carnt wait to return. We would recommend the Raj Minkey to anyone who appreciates a different curry experience. Great food good drink friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great atmosphere.
This was our 1st visit, although the dishes are very nice, I think the spice is quite mild, if it was slightly more spicier or they provided extra...
