A long-time favourite.
I've tried most of the Indian restaurants and takeaways in Canterbury, and the Ancient Raj is the one I go back to time and time again.
The staff are friendly and attentive, the food excellent, and the prices are good. They have a very good selection of house special dishes, including the brilliantly different 'Chicken Tamasha'.
The 15th century grade II listed restaurant itself is spacious and well lit, including the most comfortable restaurant chairs I've ever sat on. The atmosphere is great when they're busy, and nice and relaxed when they're quiet.
Their birthday celebrations are certainly memorable, and conveniently offer a takeaway and delivery service. Highly Recommended.
