Reviews of Papa Raj

S. G.

A luvly Order. Very easy to order and when I arrived to collect my order, it was swiftly delivered to me after giving the attendee my name. The food was piping hot and I could smell it in my car and I when I opened the bag I received two huge pots of chicken madras and 3 popadums even though I bought 2. Great pricing. The food were also delicious but way to spicy! Online it said the madras was fairly hot but it was extremely hot to my taste buds! So if you’re very spice sensitive order something less hot. Overall a great place and luvly staff. Sincerely Sharon Garcia

A surprisingly good Indian takeaway and delivery service. Sometimes a little heavy on the whole chillis thrown into the mix, but generally very good, reasonably priced, full of flavour dishes and good sized portions.

Fantastic Indian takeaway 👌 we love popping into papa raj for dinner for 2 . Highly recommended.

Ordered a tikka masala, korma and pilau rice on a quiet Monday evening. Was told 30 minutes, was ready in 30 minutes. Delicious food. Not the best looking takeaway but the food's great.

Having read online reviews of very slow delivery, we opted to order and collect. We gave an hour's notice for a £25 order. Upon attempting to collect we were told it would be a few minutes wait. We actually received our food 35 minutes later, after asking, and having had several obvious regulars served and gone in the time we were there. The staff did make repeat comments that it was very busy. Restaurant and waiting area were clean and well turned out. Staff seemed friendly. Food wise, starter, rice and naan were good. Spiced papadoms were poor, somehow overdone and soft at the same time. Main curry dish was OK. Didn't taste as we expected - very tomato-y, and the chicken was quite dry. We are new to the area, and will be trying another option next time :(

We come down to see family in Plymouth and it has become a little tradition to have a papa raj. This is because the food is fantastic and we have never been disappointed. Would highly recommend this place. Can not wait for a next trip to come round.

As a lover of Indian cuisine I can honestly say I was very impressed. The food was well cooked, non-greasy and generously portioned. However, the service was slow given the 30 minutes waiting after the allotted collection time. That being said, the food was excellent so this explained the wait, as food that good cannot possibly be cooked quickly... So the wait is warranted and definitely forgivable. It's fair to say, I'll definitely order from here again when local and fancy a top-notch curry. 😎

Another lovely meal. Food was delicious, food piping hot and delivery was on time. Perfect 🙂

K. M.

The food was lovely but unfortunately, there was an issue with part of my order being missing. I rang to tell them about it and the response was fabulous and although I had collected the food, they offered to deliver the missing food out to me and it was with us within about 15 mins!! Great customer service and a huge improvement on past experiences where I have been shouted at hahaha!!!

Placed a big order last night and all I can say is WOW! All the food was hot, tasty and fresh. My father in law who was visiting said 'it was the best Indian he has ever had'. The food was second to none and would very order again. The service was excellent, 45 minutes for collection - again for a big order was very reasonable with very friendly front of house staff. Thank you once again - I will most definatley be recommeding you to family and friends - Mark

S. W.

One of the best indian meals I have had for a long time. Amazing. Thank you

O. S.

Ordered at 6pm for 7.30pm but actually arrives at 9pm..fair enough they did refund delivery fee after requesting but still 90 minutes??? Order incorrect given us a plain naan instead of peshwari again called up and sure enough delivered one within 20 minutes but after we had finished eating. Having said that food was overall nice. Lamb rogan josh was nice, chicken tikka main was dry, bhaji was a little stodgy, vegetable curry was tasty and Rice and naan was tasty. Popadums are extra charge which is fair enough but doesn’t come with raita or little bagged salad which I’ve never come across. Even our local chucks that in for free. Overall would try again but maybe after pandemic when everyone isn’t ordering so maybe a little more care is taken.

Nothing quite beats a good take away on a Friday night! Papa Raj has a fantastic selection on their menu and it all tastes divine. One of our favourites, used my many of our friends and family. If you’re looking for great Indian cuisine, look no further.

L. S.

We use this place all the time. My wife introduced it to me when we first met. It was on the street she lived on at the time so very convenient to get to. Now we're in st nudes but we still use them. Delivery is fast and hot on arrival. We had our order in 20 mins last night!

R. E.

Great food. Personally I believe the best Indian food in Plymouth. Never had a bad order and it is always ready upon collection

S. F.

Used this Indian for the first time the rice and curry were nice but the chips and nann bread were disgusting couldn't eat it chips were luke warm soggy just warmed in a microwave all wet yuk and the bread well that just crumbled as soon as you tried to break it awful very disappointed

S. P.

First time in years we ordered from Papa Raj and the experience from ordering to delivery was first class. The food was amazing and I recommend it to anyone you will not be disappointed.

N. B.

Excellent food service can be slow on Fri and Sat nights

J. F.

Not being a curry fan i opted for the chicken korma, loved it! Along with the big portions (Almost enough for 2) and the accompanying extras made for a excellent meal! Always return once a week.

Having recently returned to UK from living in Europe, where a good Indian meal is a rarity, we were disappointed by the first couple of restaurant meals that we tried in the Plymouth area. Then a friend recommended Papa Raj and we tried a home delivery..... Wow!!, real Indian food, in huge quantities delivered efficiently and always hot. We have been ordering regularly for 3 months now and have not had a single bad or disappointing experience. Those who use Papa Raj already know the standard presented, those who haven't used it yet are missing something special. All we can say is give it a try, if you are disappointed, no-one will be able to please you anywhere. Cracking food that will put most, if not all competition in the shade. Well done Papa Raj, you are the best!

G. S.

Always wins top south West takeaway award! Excellent food consistently good because the "boss" is always there! Yes there is a wait at weekends but what does that tell you? It's always worth waiting for, especially the lamb tikka biryani!

M. T.

Can’t fault the takeaway we had tonight, really nice, would definitely recommend and good value too. Very socially distanced and clean when you pick up too, in case you were worried

L. S.

Here on holiday from oxfordshire. I have to say this is far the best indian i have eaten. Arrived early, hot and extreemly tasty. Shame you dont have a shop in bicester. Dont think any indian will stand up to yours

A. S.

Great takeaway curry. It's very busy here but you won't be disappointed. I am very fussy but their curries are the best I've tasted in Plymouth.

R. R.

Bombay aloo and saag paneer was awesome, biryani was good. Roti -could have been better if made from wholewheat. Good quantity.

S. A.

Without a doubt the best Indian takeaway in Plymouth. Tasty dishes that all the family love. If they did a proper Chicken Pakora, they would have 5 stars :)

H. M.

I really like this curry house, the food is really tasty, with lots choices. The issue is around how long you have to wait for the food to arrive. The food is 5 star the rubbish timing really impacts on the review

P. S.

THE best Indian takeaway food in the SW, by far in my opinion. Always busy at the peak times but that's only because the food is amazing.

J. B.

Great food, can't fault it. Still had to wait twenty minutes in the shop though after being told what time to collect.

K.

This is the best place for a takeaway curry, so worth the wait! Always extremely busy, but that just tells you how great the food is.

E. B.

Usually a good curry but more than once now it has been hours late. Very poor and in danger of losing food local custom.

C. C.

I’ve been around India, and the finest restaurants in london, and this is still my favourite curry house. Avoid the prawns, go for the lamb!

J. T.

I've been using this curry house for years. Definitely the best curry having sampled quite a few! Excellent service as well as excellent produce!

J. F.

papa raj is always good food which they have maintained for years. brilliant all round especially the aet meal for two.

T. F.

Always a good curry. Online ordering for collection no problems and best because they are very popular on the phone.

K. J.

Good food but a long wait when I visited. Probably best option food quality wise in the area though, so plan ahead and ring through.
