Ordered here a few months ago, food took two hours and was freezing cold. Not even an apology. Ordered again today thinking it may have been a one off and they didn’t deliver half of my food and the attitude I got when they eventually delivered the other half was disgusting. (They took 30 minutes to redeliver meaning by this time my current food was cold anyway.) Won’t be ordering here again! if I could give a zero star rating I absolutely would.

Delicious food, worth the price. Lovely service. Takeaway but atmosphere was nice and relaxing. Will be booking to eat-in at some point.

Incredible food, great service despite being very busy. The best Indian I've had in a long time, definitely the best in Caerphilly. Looking forward to coming back!

Even though there was a long line when we arrived, the wait was surprisingly quick. Kudos to the attentive staff who even offered soft drinks while we were in line. I've ordered takeout from this establishment multiple times, and they consistently deliver solid food and good service.

Fantastic service, food was nice but needed more sauce. Maybe worth having larger bowls to increase the size of the volume of sauce as this can leave some dishes dry, like a Biryani. Also I would make the samosa in house you can do better than the bought in type.

Worth every minutes we spent in the queue. The staff is incredible, I shared my intolerance to onion and literally the whole staff worked the menu and made annotation and arrangement for the whole time, I was so impressed. Then obviously the food is amazing, the service is fast and the place is beautiful. I'll definitely come over again.

I would like to praise this restaurant, firstly for the warm welcome and outstanding level of customer service. The staff were so attentive, checking the food was okay and providing a very friendly service. I eat all types of food, but have a particular soft spot for Indian food. The standards were high, very clean and tasty, similar to some of the great Indian restaurants in West London where I am based. The ambiance was nice, authentic music and the restaurant was very clean.
Good food, good value and exceptional staff. The Raj offers consistently good food and customer service - highly recommended.October '23 update - great staff, excellent value and first class service.

For many years this place was our fave curry house. Consistently tasty, delivered on time and friendly staff. But over the past year or so the food started getting more oily and inconsistent- it was a bit hit or miss depending on who was cooking. The last straw was last night. Said 45 minutes for delivery. After 1 hour we called (first time they’d ever been late for years) and were told: it’s because we’ve run out of chicken (nothing we ordered had chicken in it), and then told, oh it was no. 16 on your road that ordered the chicken (highest number on our road is no. 15!). Irritating lies.Another hour later (2 hours total) with no answer on phone we drive there to collect it. Another lie: it’s with delivery driver 5 mins away. We waited outside 5mins, still hadn’t arrived, and so went back in, it was sat on the worktop.Hate lies. Would have been fine if they’d been honest that they were just struggling.They promised a part refund due to delays and for paying delivery fees yet having to collect it. However that was another lie.Final straw: tasted average. A real shame. Very much doubt we’ll go back again.

Outstanding food and service wasnt expecting that. Use to use castle gate caerphilly however lately it has become very bland and pricey not worth it. Will return to the Raj of india soon!

We haven’t ordered a takeaway for a long time, as regardless of what we order or where we order it from the food is always so bland and disappointing. But tonight we ordered a Murgh Sagwala from The Raj and it’s the best curry I’ve had in years. It was fresh, well spiced, seasoned just right and tasted delicious. We’ll done The Raj!

Doesn't look all that inviting from the outside as it is above a hairdressers and the menu in the display case is aging (and out of date). However, the interior is clean and modern with views of Caerphilly Castle (if that is important for you). There was only one fellow serving on the Sunday evening we visited (it was Peter Andre's night off, presumably?), so service could be a tad slow, but was also attentive and polite. Food was very good for your fairly standard India restaurant, and fair value as well. No alcohol licence though, so you would need to bring your own. Would have given it five stars but they'd run out of mint chocs to give with the bill! That said, popadoms etc were on the house. All round an enjoyable sit-in experience for a rainy night in Caerphilly. You could do a lot worse...
