Visited on 6th Jan for the 1st time for a birthday meal with family, 4 of us. Seated quickly, food and service was excellent. We all had a very enjoyable night and have all said we will be returning.

Have to say, as a regular customer to Rivaj, I’m always amazed by the level of service that we receive and the quality of the food. Nothing is ever too much trouble.We visited on Christmas Day, first time eating out on Christmas Day. The restaurant was full to capacity but level of service as fabulous as ever.Thank you so much to all the staff and see you soon ? ?.

Been going a few years now, always good, however last few times have been overcharged on bill by quite a bit -I advise always check your bill. Had the Boxing Day buffet (minimum of 2 ppl). Pitiful amount in finger dip bowls to be shared by 2. Had banquet before and portions, though not massive were bigger than today’s. Luckily other members of party had more than they could eat so had some of theirs too. Probably won’t go again do to repeated overcharging.

We ordered Achari, Rogan, and Handi, with sabzi bhaji, bhindi bhaji, and matar paneer. Yet they all looked the same. That generic orange brown onion tomato gravy that gets served out to unwitting people across the UK.The Handi had mange touts in it, which had changed the flavour of the dish. I have never come across a Handi with mange touts in it. The first iteration of matar paneer didn't actually have any paneer in it, and its replacement only had about 6 pieces in it. The roti, where not like roti at all. While the Achari had a nice flavour to it, it wasn't pickle spiced enough, and was overshadowed by the generic sauce.Overall it's a real shame and a real disappointment as last time I came here it was okay. I won't be back. There are much better places around, for much better prices (I hope, otherwise it's a long travel for a good curry).

We ordered yesterday at 6.20 the food arrived at 7.00 samoas wasn't cooked and cold. The onion bahji was also cold. Had to put the starters and main course which was wraps and chips in the oven. Very disappointed ☹️

Went after a recommendation form a work colleague, took my wife for our wedding anniversary, food was exceptionally tasty, staff were friendly and easy to talk too, everything we had was reasonably priced, will definitely be going
Called in on spec for a meal. Very welcoming staff, good service and good food.

Been here before and what a treat, food superb , and what a lot. Service great and quick, so much had to ask for a tray to take home what was left. Great experience all round!

From walking through the door into this beautiful restaurant you feel like a vip... It doesn't stop there. The staff on arrival were happy to go the extra mile by receiving a surprise Birthday cake for my Daughter which they allowed me to bring in. On ordering our food the staff member took time to explain the dish we had ordered to ensure we were totally happy with our choice & shared laughter too. May I say with a age range from 36yrs old - 89yrs old we've been to many Indian restaurants but Rivaj your the top. All the food delivered was absolutely delicious again with smiley staff. They even presented my daughters surprise birthday cake on a lovely cake stand & added a huge sparkler to it. They offered the ladies of the party a glass of prosseco & birthday girl a special drink too. Thank you Rivaj for the best Indian meal ever, your customer service, Paying special attention to the Birthday Girl & making us all feel like VIP'S. Highly recommended. We're be back.

Really disappointed to leave this review but I feel it’s necessary to alert people with allergies or other requirements. I have a peanut allergy. I am fine with ‘traces’ and most restaurants and takeaways accommodate that well. We love the food at Rivaj and used to come regularly to eat in and takeaway. They then introduced a policy a few years ago that if you had any allergies, you could not order over the phone, you had to go there in person to order. Needless to say that did mean we didn’t go regularly. Really fancied giving it another try tonight so I drove down there to place an order, and had a list of what I wanted. When I arrived I asked for a menu and was told to look online. I said I had but it wasn’t loading and that I knew what I wanted. They then told me that they couldn’t guarantee no cross contamination, which I was absolutely fine with. I asked if the things I wanted contained nuts and was again told to look at the JustEat website. I hadn’t done that previously because I’d never been allowed to order in the past via JustEat because of my allergy. I was struggling with internet connection and so asked for the wifi code. I was then ‘told’ to sit down rather than standing at the bar to look at the menu. The person there just kept going on about how they couldn’t guarantee no nuts etc and was rude and obstructive so I left. I have been surprised in the past by this restaurants attitude to my allergy but tonight’s experience was one of downright rudeness. Would be interested to know if they are the same with other allergy sufferers or those with dietary requirements. Will sadly not be returning.
