Never have I been so disappointed when going out for a family meal, we thought we would try Rajpoot in Sherborne but was very disappointed with the tasteless food and the service we were given was shocking, we were seated next to a very loud group that you could not even hear your own conversation on the table, the staff were extremely rude and unhelpful when asked for help working the bill out as wanted to pay in small groups we was given a menu, paper and a pen and told to work it out ourselves or would have to pay 20% service charge, the restaurant is very run down the window seal is all loose and nearly falling off could do with re-decorating.

The worst Indian restaurant I’ve ever been too. The food was tasteless and bland and they wasn’t interested when raising this with waiter not even an apology. The overall service was very poor. At the end when we got the bill we needed some help to work out the order as we was splitting between a group and they wanted a 20% service charge to do this and were very rude about it. When we said that we wouldn’t be recommending them the response was we’ve got enough customers anyway. It’s a real shame this is the only Indian restaurant in town.

A great traditional curry house. Extensive menu with plenty to chose from and at a reasonable price. Definitely worth a visit.

Excellent food and service. Popular - very busy on a Monday night in January. Even though the restaurant was busy the food was hot and not delayed. The staff were friendly and helpful. We were very impressed.

The Rajpoot Team are amazing and go out of their way to ensure you have a good experience. This restaurant is a firm favourite of ours and we have dined with friends and family over and over. Food is delicious and team are exceptional. Thank you all for looking after us.

Had a stunningly good meal at the Rajpoot last night. Our table of 6 all agreed it was the best Indian meal we had experienced for ages. Service was spot on too. Yes the decor is a bit tired but that is a minor feature compared to the exceptional food.
Loved the vegetarian dishes, very tasty ?. Excellent service. ?

Ended up taking the kids for a curry as there was so little choice in Sherborne. 3 options on a wed night - 1 we’d been to the night before, 1 had no kids menu and didn’t really want children and everything else closed. It was an error. The food was average. Good naan bread but the bhajis were bad and the curry’s lacking in substance. Service for us was ok. Not helped as the table behind was vocal and odd whilst another group sat down, had an argument with the waiter and then left abruptly. Could imagine this at 10pm but not 6pm with the kids. Sadly wont be returning.

The service was great. Immediate attention on entering and given a table quickly. A reasonable amount of time given make choices before ordering and food served quickly. Be aware that there is a minimum order of £20 per person excluding drinks.Decor and furniture tired, but other good atmosphere. Would use again for a casual meal out, but not good enough for that special meal.
