This restaurant adjoins the Holiday Inn Algarve. The food was nice, I had a chicken korma with rice. There was only one waiter serving in the evening and he was doing a sterling job as the restaurant was busy. Recommended for anyone who likes Indian Cuisine More

After reading so many great reviews on here we made the Raj one of our first meals out. Unfortunately they aren't open on Mondays so bear that in mind. We went on a Satruday night at 6pm (they open at 6.30pm but let us in early as we had a baby with us and 6.30pm is a bit late for... More

We used to love the Raj. The food is great, the portions not very big though. We have found for a while now though that they have put their prices up and it is fairly expensive for an Indian meal, especially given the portion sizes are not generous. More

Stayed at the Holiday Inn so one of the hotel restaurants. Decor is actually less plastic than some of the illustrations seen online, but essentially marble with few Indian prints. On the positive side, they don't use food colouring. The herb/spice mix used for the lamb tikka was not to my taste nut that's personal. Curry sauces tend to be... More

I've never gone to an Indian restaurant for the ambiance; this is an exception. Gorgeous waterfront deck facing the surf matched with excellent food and service made this a memorable night. All the Indian stand-by dishes were about as good as you'd find in London or NYC, but the location makes it so much better. More
