Raja Indian Cuisine
Raja prides itself in using secret home recipes which have proven to be a huge hit with the Cambridge locals for many years. Recipes that have been passed down over many generations. We love to get creative at Raja, creating great new twists to classic indo-British curries like your Masala and Madras.

You can expect a unique experience from the moment you step into Raja, a restaurant full of character with some personal touches to really make you appreciate the history of the curry. Curry is still the soul food of the UK, the bowl of warmth that people turn to when sniffy, sloshed or merely peckish.

The Raja menu has been carefully created with passion, food that we are happy to eat in our own home with recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation. Enjoy dining in, in our cosy Cambridge city location. Relaxing at home? Order a takeaway and collect or we'll deliver to you. Ordering your takeaway could not be any easier!

I’m well traveled and this has absolutely the best Indian food experience I’ve had in the UK. Raja himself is a fantastic host and gave great recommendations. The food was excellent. If you like spice my with flavor, I highly recommend the chicken Vindaloo and naan.

Arrived at Raja without a booking as it was a last minute night out with old friends. As four guys arriving with a lot of excitement , we were very disappointed with how over spiced and artificially hot the food was made for us. Sceptical side of us believes it was entirely intended having eaten a beef Bhuna many times a year for decades. Disappointing.

Great food and service! We had no booking and yet were welcomed and seated within seconds. The interior was beautiful and the food authentic. Will definitely return.

First thing off the bat - make a reservation! We were lucky enough to be squeezed in by the owner, on what turned out to be a very busy evening. Excellent service, delicious food, generous servings, all for a great price. I will be visiting again as soon as I come back to Cambridge. A fantastic family restaurant, thank you so much for seating us!

Very good food and friendly staff. Honestly one of the best curries I have had in recent years. The restaurant is pleasant and has a good atmosphere and comfy booths to dine in.
I took one star only because it is quite expensive. (Although very tasty)
Would recommend! I would personally recommend the dansak and black daal. Very good.

Just ordered on deliveroo - the food was packaged horribly which led to the paper bag exploding all over the floor which is shown in the photos. I rang and the first person i spoke to was extremely rude and the next person who claimed to be manager refused to re deliver our food. Will not be ordering again as they’ve left us with a hungry family with 2 under 5s. If less than one star was possible, that’s what i’d be putting.

We ordered butter chicken and Naikol chicken curry through Uber. I always order butter chicken when I go to an Indian restaurant because it's my favourite dish, and also this time there was an Uber 1-for-1 butter chicken promotion. The Raja staff who delivered our order was very friendly and professional. The food was however disappointing. The butter chicken, unfortunately, was very far from what I know how butter chicken should be. It didn't taste like butter chicken, it was bland, the milk has obviously curdled (see picture), and the chicken was dry and lacked flavour. =(

Our favourite Indian Restaurant in Cambridge. We have been regular visitors over the past few years. The recent refurbishment has opened up the interior and with lower windows improved the view from inside and outside. I had The Tiffin which was excellent.

Raja Restaurant offers a sophisticated range of Indian and Bangladeshi cuisine, perhaps not from a huge menu, but there is plenty of variety and what they do is done very well. Service is friendly and efficient. The restaurant itself is comfortable, bright and airy, located close to main shopping streets, but just far enough away to offer some peace and quiet. Their takeaway service is also very popular.
