Rajpoot Tandoori Restaurant

As a resident of Salisbury this is my favourite local Indian restaurant and take-​away and has been for many years.
Though small the restaurant is beautifully furnished and clean with polite, helpful and attentive staff.
I recently took my son and Bangladeshi daughter-​in-​law to eat here and whilst she always rates her Mother’s Indian cuisine as the best, she was very complimentary about the RajPoot … no mean feat!
Try it, you won’t be disappointed.

Having never seen the restaurant, I can’t comment on this area of the business. The take away and delivery service is another kettle of fish however.
To me presentation and attention to detail are everything. Imagine my shock when I opened my delivery bag to find ice cream half melted on top of hot food and even more disturbing, the ice cream was delivered in a plastic bag.
My subsequent complaint was met with ambivalence and a total non understanding of the problem.
My advice, be wary.

An outstanding and authentic Indian restuarant. The Rajpoot is the favourite Indian for most of my friends and work colleagues.
The seating is comfy and the little booths are private and great for an intimate meal. Unlike some Indian restuarants, at the Raj you can sit for as long as you like and enjoy the company of the people you are with, opposed to being harassed to order from the second you arrive. The food is second to none and the restaurant is always busy which is a great sign! The food is served sizzling to your table on hot plates and the taste is amazing. The selection of drinks on offer is good and the prices are reasonable.
The background authentic music adds to the experience.
If you are looking for a lovely evening in a relaxed and friendly Indian, this is the place to go.

A poorly designed interior has really let this place down. It is far too cheap and clinical looking. You would be forgiven for asking for a cooked breakfast in this restaurant. However you would only know you’d made a mistake because of the size of the bill. There is very little ambience, or in fact leg room, in this curry house. Built out of an old shop front, the Rajpoot was a disaster from the beginning. The rice was cold, the beers were far too expensive and the staff were unknowledgeable and slow to serve.
Situated only minutes away from the fantastic SHAH-​JAHAN, this place certainly had a lot to work too. Unfortunately for them it was a terrible dining experience.
