Abdul, your host and chef will welcome you to this popular Bridgwater Indian restaurant. Abdul is always there to make sure your evening is a good one. Our tandoori food is bold and interesting using only the best local ingredients. Indian cuisine is a combination of subtle tastes and flavours and dishes can be as varied as the climate of India and as exotic as the people of India.

Fragrant spices, pungent and warm from the four corners of the country are delicately blended in meticulous proportions to create the dishes we present to you from mild dishes such as Passanda or Korma to the hottest Madras curries. Each dish will have its own distinctive flavour and aroma which cannot come from curry powder but from spices which have to be separately prepared each day for each individual dish.

December 2020 Wanted to help my favourite local restaurant.
Cause of the lock down sadly English Raj is servicing only takeways, hopeful for a short time.
On Tuesday to Sunday 5:30pm to 9pm.
If it's the first time trying the taste of curry, try a satisfying Meat Korhi Raj. The taste and flavour is amazing.
I also loved the taste Balti king Prawn with
fresh ginger, garlic, green peppers and specially selected spices giving the real taste of Balti food.

Booked a table for 5 people on Saturday night for 8:30pm, arrived about 20 minutes past 8 only to be told that the table wasn't ready and to come back in half an hour.
Went to the pub for a drink and returned at 9pm, table still not available and we were generally ignored by the staff despite asking several times when our table would be ready.
Finally about 9:15 we were told that a table would be available in a few minutes but we then noticed looking around the restaurant, that there were a quite a few tables waiting for their food.
I asked the four people at the nearest table to where we were

I haven't eating there, but ordered take away. Food wasn't as ordered same as charges, however food was good and that is fact. I am planning to have my dinner there and hoping to have that what I am ordering rather that what waiting staff will bring. I will definitely give this place a go.

The English Raj is a safe bet if you're looking for Indian food in the Bridgwater area. The meals were very tasty and came in reasonable quantities. The place itself is nicely decorated and clean. The staff was pleasant and very welcoming. Finally, it is quite cheap for what you get! So all in all, a very good experience!

Its quite good. Probably my favourite of the Indian restaurants in Bridgwater. Not very expensive. Not a patch on the Spice Gallery in North Petherton, however much less expensive so depends what you are after.
