This is definitely the best Indian food ever. I’ve not eaten it for about a year as was hard to find decent place to eat. Now I’ve found it and keep going back. It’s absolutely delicious. Can’t wait to go back !!

First Class! My family dine at this fabulous restaurant a few times a year. This is owing to the wonderful food and service. Today, we were delayed by trains from London. The restaurant still accommodated us although we were late. They were kind and understanding about our late arrival. We were given a great table and it accommodated older members of the family perfectly. The food? We love it! I cannot describe how delicious the curries are...just one word: exceptional! The service was brilliant. The waiters were attentive to all our needs. The birthday surprises we received at the end were totally beyond all our expectations. Furthermore, the waiters made our family celebrations special as a result. We left very happy and of course we will return! Thank you again to all the staff at Rim Jhim Indian Restaurant. You were superb! One of the best dining experiences!

Nice atmosphere. Good menu with lots of dishes to choose from. Each curry ordered really served 2 people, and it would have been helpful if this had been pointed out - as a result, we over ordered and the meal for 3 people came to nearly £100! Their homemade brandy and coffee whiskey (on the house) we're nice at the end.

My only fault I had was we were still eating starter when the waiter wanted to take it because the main was ready. But staff were pleasant and gave us a few more minutes. We had a lovely evening though.

This was our second visit & had great expectations, we invited friends to join us to celebrate a Birthday, we booked the table a month in advance to ensure we got a good table. We were sat in the entrance area. OMG what a nightmare, people collecting takeaways, a group & other customers waiting to be seated talking loudly, along with a very loud large group of guys in their late 20's We were not able to hear the conversations at our table. Service was not as attentative as we had previously experienced unsure if you get forgotten sitting in the entrance area, but we were never asked if we required more drinks even when it was obvious we had empty glasses, we had to ask staff. With the noise being the main issue we finished up our meals and found an alternative venue to celebrate. On a positive note the food was outstanding, which is a shame it could not have been enjoyed in a more pleasant atmosphere. The food will bring us back but I will request a table in the actual restaurant

The booking of a table was a bit of a farce, as they were over full already with walk in customers. Service was OK, bit slow, but definitely friendly. Prices are definitely high, expensive actually. We had a pleasant meal, but certainly wouldn't rush back as £90 for 2 people with just 2 drinks each is pricey for any Indian.
