"We brought our 2yr old to Cafe Raj, and found the service and value to be A+. The staff was incredibly welcoming, and brought our son a fruity yogurt drink on the house. They kept stopping by and saying hi to him, it was so sweet. The also offered chai tea and dessert on the house. In total we had butter chicken, saag paneer, naan, rice, a beer, yogurt drink, rice pudding all for $38 after tax... incredible. Our family can barely get Chipotle for less than $40 these days, and Cafe Raj beats that by far. Highly recommend!"

The First Presbyterian Church of Berkeley ordered food from this restaurant for our study hall event. The food is very delicious and made with love. I especially enjoy the chicken tikka masala and chicken korma. I highly recommend this place for catering and even recommend visiting for dine in.

I love Cafe Raj. I’ve been coming here since 2006. I wish I knew what kind of cheese they use in their naan and in the Josh Rogan dish. I have family that I wanted to refer to their restaurant so they can try their dishes. One loves cheese but is particular about the type they eat due to intolerance issues so if anyone has that secret it would be helpful. ; View menu

Cafe Raj didn’t meet the expectations we had. Their curry’s are on the bland side and not typical of similar Indian restaurants in the Bay Area. Their prices are pretty good and the service is prompt. The garlic naan had way too much raw garlic inside the bread, which I would have loved but the garlic was raw and didn’t feel cooked. The Prawns Zafarani is on the sweeter side with nuts and such. We also got a chicken curry, we liked this the most.

I almost didn't come for the previous Lukewarm review. the first impression of the restaurant is a cleanliness with clear windows and not carpeted floors. I ordered the Aloo saga and received more than enough for a person in the did, it could have been enough for two! the spinach tasted fresh and clean like the kartoffels. they have a selection of white or brown basmati rice. the naanbrot was dry, but good for the full of spinat I got. I would definitely return.
