Our review

Raj's Curry House is a small family-run Indian restaurant at Ragged Staff Wharf on Queensway Quay. It holds 4.6 on Tripadvisor from 1,071 reviews and 4.6 on Google from 639, exact agreement that sets the Index at 4.60. The reviews were re-read on 6 September 2026 and the newest was written that day, so the picture is current.

The detail that recurs most is the sauce tasting: the kitchen brings the sauce to the table before serving so the heat can be set to the diner's liking, and reviewers mention it again and again as the thing that makes the meal feel personal. Amol and Vipul are named for it, and one August 2026 family describes the whole evening as being invited into someone's home rather than going out, with children fed first and the spice adjusted for everyone from a baby to a grandmother.

The food is called authentic, layered and clean rather than heavy, with a garlic naan carrying real pieces of garlic, a cheese bread, homemade ice cream and vegan options all singled out. Portions are large, prices are called very good, beer glasses come from the freezer, and one couple went twice in a four-night holiday. One reviewer had heard it won Taste of Gibraltar's best Indian award for 2026, which is why they tried it.

There is almost nothing against it in the 30 reviews read: 29 five-star and one four-star. The only practical notes are that it takes pounds or card rather than euros, and that its street has a view of the Rock. A sample this uniformly positive means this write-up cannot tell you what a bad night looks like.

Come for carefully spiced Indian cooking with the heat set at the table, from a family whose warmth reviewers describe in detail; come with children, and bring pounds or a card. Nobody from Gibraltar Index has eaten here, and this write-up is drawn from the reviews.

Written from the Tripadvisor reviews and both platforms' scores on 6 September 2026, not from a meal we ate — nobody from Gibraltar Index has eaten here. We show the Google rating but have not yet read Google's reviews for the write-up. The recurring themes it draws on are below.

What reviewers consistently say

Our summary of recurring themes across the 30 most recent reviews, written in our own words and read on 6 September 2026. Recent reviews from both platforms are quoted, with attribution, further down.

The sauce is brought to the table to taste before serving, so the heat is set to each diner.
Amol and Vipul are named for hospitality that one family compared to eating in someone's home.
Garlic naan with real garlic, cheese bread, homemade ice cream and vegan dishes are all singled out.
Children are fed first and spice adjusted across the table; portions are large and prices fair.
Thirty reviews, 29 of them five stars: the sample shows no bad night.

What it gets right

Authentic, layered cooking with heat set to order
Family hospitality that reviewers describe in detail
Good value, large portions and vegan choices

What it gets wrong

Pounds or card only, no euros
A uniformly glowing sample, so little to warn about

How it compares

It holds 4.6 out of 5 on Tripadvisor from 1,071 reviews — well above the Gibraltar median of 4.1 across 106 restaurants with enough reviews to rank, and on a very large body of reviews.

Among comparable places, it is 4 of 10 Indian options we track, by rating.

It is priced in the middle of Gibraltar's range.

How the Gibraltar Index Score is built

It is not an average of the two. Each source is weighted by how many reviews it carries, then pulled toward the Gibraltar average so a high score from a handful of reviews cannot outrank a strong score from thousands. Raj's Curry House scores 4.6 from 1,071 on Tripadvisor and 4.6 from 639 on Google, which the model blends to 4.6.

We read the 30 most recent Tripadvisor reviews and summarised what recurs, in our own words; the reviews we drew on are quoted below, attributed to their authors. The Tripadvisor and Google scores are each shown 1:1 as those platforms publish them; the Index Score is ours and the formula is above. Nobody from Gibraltar Index has eaten here, so nothing is a first-hand verdict.

Great food and great service
The food was excellent, and the staff super-helpful. They offered a taste of the sauce we ordered, to calibrate the spiciness, which was richly flavorful but not that hot. Highly recommended!more →

Great place
We really enjoyed our meal at Raj’s. The service was immaculate and the food was really tasty. It was great value for money too and the atmosphere was very relaxed. Amol was very helpful and friendly and catered each course to our preferred spice level. I would 100% recommend Raj’s if you’re looking for an all round great experience.more →

Very warm welcome, very tasty with good sized portions and nice to have a garlic naan with pieces of garlic in it rather than just brushed with a bit of garlic butter. Nice touch with the beer glasses stored in the freezermore →
