My husband and I came here for a date night and it didn't disappoint. The food was delicious and staff were so helpful and friendly. Definitely the best Indian I have been too.

More of a formal Indian restaurant with nice old world charm, very friendly attentive staff, clean and pleasant. My partner enjoyed her cocktail in particular which was quite well done certainly for a restaurant setting. Nice crispy fresh poppadoms and good quality chutneys, raita and pickles. Skipped starters as decided to have multiple sides for main course. Partner vegetarian so she went for a vegetable based curry, medium which she enjoyed, along with an aloo kobi(cauliflower and potatoes) a spiced pumpkin dish(Lau Bhajee) and an okra dish (Bhindi Bhajee), for myself I went with a Beef Vindaloo which used a Naga chilli. The beef was slow cooked although not quite so tender as I had expected and the heat level was far more towards a medium but enjoyable and well balanced. The coconut rice was a bit wet, water still at the bottom of the bowls served in and tasted fine but packed any punch of coconut. The naans were nice, slight crisp outer with fluffy inside, drizzled with ghee, I went with the coconut version which again tasty although drizzled with honey and made for a very sticky affair b with no finger bowl provided (when asked though the team went above and beyond to provide a large bowl with small lemon pieces and warm water, however am surprised this wasn't a standard affair as am sure others must hit the same issue). After dinner they do provide a nice warm mini towel which was a nice touch.

Prices towards the higher side(but not extortionate) which was expected, the quality and service justified. Nice theatrical presentation of an after dinner chocolate and Turkish delight a bowl surrounded with a little dry ice which the server pours hot water over to give a lovely smokey visual spectacle

Portions were of a decent size, a reasonable and sensible size. We did end up taking a little of my partners curry and a small amount of sides home and were full. Unfortunately resulting in us not trying any dessert which there was a reasonable selection for an Indian restaurant and a good selection of after dinner alcoholic drinks, coffees and teas. One dessert option that particularly intrigued was 'a can't decide' option whereby for a price that was lower than the other options the team would choose for you, no doubt a selection that they had higher amounts of or short shelf life left but a clever god value option that for sure we'll try next time.

Adorned to the walls at the entrance are various photos of celebrities that have enjoyed the restaurant, a bit of fun to browse at the end of a lovely evening.

Discretionary service added to the bill at 10% which was reasonable so was happy to round the bill up to closer to 15% after an enjoyable service and evening.

Absolutely amazing place, my partner has been here twice in one week, offered a popodom and coke while he waited, his name is Paul and he is coming back for a takeaway again tonight. Not greasy, tasty, chicken is great, onion B the best I’ve ever had, staff friendly, clean, we hadn’t been here for years, but now a returning ongoing customer. Thank you so much. Well deserved 5 star. Best around.

Epsom & Banstead residents!! we are blessed to have such a special restaurant on our door step, no need to travel into London where you will not find any better food I assure you. I have worked in the hospitality industry for over 38 years, which includes running 6 Michelin star restaurants. I feel so lucky to live with in walking distance of Le Raj. The ‘Bengali’ cuisine is outstanding, their Chef is seriously talented and so consistent weather you dine in or have a take away. Jeff, the owner and front man, is a true professional, recognizing by name all his regular clients and their favorite dishes. We have frequented this restaurant for many a family celebration and will continue to do so as long as Jeff and his amazing team are there.
