Motiraj Tandoori Restaurant

Avoid, if you like fresh food. Collected a takaway last night. What an utter disappointment The rice smelt awful and was stale, the rest of the food , also tasted stale and certainly had not been freshly cooked. The chicken was rock hard like blocks of coal. The entire meal tasted as if it had been stored in a freezer for a very long time, then microwave defrosted. I ate a table spoon of each and 13.85 went straight into the bin. I eat a lot of curries and make my own too. This food was inedible. Most unfortunate, as I am away from home. I was left with a few apples for dinner. This is a warning to fellow travellers who put their faith in ordering food when they are bored of hotel menus, please do not waste your money here.

Wow! What a little gem next to the empire theatre upstairs to another Indian restaurant. Food 5* for 3* price. Service was first class with recommendations and acknowledgements

We went to the restaurant after a matinee at the Empire and it was delicious. We arrived shortly after opening and were able to go straight to a table. Service was swift and polite and the food was delicious as befits the reputation. Really enjoyed it. Although it was just me and my partner we would have happily brought our children too as they seemed to be pretty well catered for too with some simple English dishes and the easily ability to share dishes.

Great evening enjoyed by 29 of us restaurant staff amazing food fabulous.

We have been going to the Motiraj for over 30 years. In our opinion it is the best restaurant for miles around. The owner shafiq is very friendly and always goes out of his way to make our meal the best he can. All of the staff are very professional and polite. If I could give it ten stars I would. I'm sure that we will be going there for a lot of years to come.
