Raunka Punjab Diyan

The food was okay, we asked for it spicy and couldn’t taste spice at all. It was also lacking in salt. We had to wait a long time for our food to come. We were hoping to also order a dum biriyani but our mains took too long. It is expensive, for one starter and one main with a drink and roti cost around £45

Amazing experience for a birthday lunch! Found on tiktok whilst scrolling and decided to try it out. Amazing food and service and Manu our waitress was absolutely lovely. They took our requests and ensured food was delivered timely. Some of the best naan and kulche we have had! Will definitely visit again!

Flavourful, fresh food. The restaurant also accommodates personal tastes. Food here has a lovely home made feel and taste. Staff go out of their way to assist you. Family run small business where we had a great night. Thank you to our waitress Gagan who took good care of us. Parking in the area is free after 6:30pm.

We came here with high hopes of having a true Punjabi experience and this place exceeded our expectations. You truly feel like family here from the minute you walk in. We were excited to try different dishes so ordered alot and everything was excellent... Best Sarson ka Saag, amazing Chicken Tikka Masala and Achari Baigan was amazing. Truly got a taste of Punjab here in this hidden gem!! Truly worth coming out to thos lovely Punjabi Dhaba owned and run by lovely ladies! Hats off to you girls!!

Overall food was not excellent but was good in taste. Daal makhni, baigan bharta was really good in taste and panner was okish. But in every dish there was a sour taste of extra tomato gravy. I will give this restaurant an another try, because of its organic taste in every bite.

Food review:Starters:Masala chai £2.25 - no flavour, a sign of things to come perhaps? Less flavour than a powdered instant chaiBottled water - £2.50• Masala fries £5.50 - never received, they tried to charge us for it too, but we got this removed.• Gol goppa £4.75 - Had to make it ourselves! They didnt put any of the filling in the gol goppa, usually people put the filling and keep the water separate.• Bhel chaat £4.75 - fine if not a bit stale• Aloo Tikki chaat £4.75 - too much sweet yogurt. Not enough potatoes• Papadi chaat £4.75 - fine but didnt actually use papadiDinner:• Chilli paneer (dry) £7.95 Quite sad, the paneer itself had no flavour. Its by far one of the most blandest• Chilli fried mushroom £7.95 would order again. This was nice, sweet and sour type flavour.• Chilli chicken (dry) £7.95 tasted nice, moist. But we were told when ordering its dry- it clearly had sauce in. What is going on there?• Chicken tikka £8.95 5 pieces for £8? Expensive as anything. The meat was fine, if not a bit tough and the marinade wasn't a nice thick one• Dal Makhni £8.75 Quite nice, creamy, slightly sweet though• Saag £8.75 so disappointing, bland & tasteless. It was like they just emptied a can and made no tadka with it. So bad, wasn't cooked down or smooth at all.• Lamb rogan josh £10.90 tasteless, barely any meat. Member of our party said it acc made them sick• Bhatura £1.95 - fine, as described• Makhi di roti £1.75 - Undercooked and not nice at all. Hard, dry, bitter tasting• Garlic Chilli Naan £2.90• Plain rice £3.50General Review:♡ Pros:- BYOB- Waiter/waitresses were super helpful trying to help my grandad get hot water, and generally helpful- Mural gave a cosy punjabi feel- Starters came quick, but quite a wait (over 30-40mins?) for the mains. We considered just paying for starters and leaving.- Warm plates for mains× Cons:- Booking was a hassle, we were told to phone back in an hour. Yes we have a party of 8, but theres a number of empty tables when we arrived and remained empty. Eventually after another member of the party called (after an hour!) they said they'll phone us back in 20mins.- Offered us papadum but they're not free, did not disclose this at the time, we had to ask- Music is quite loud so hard to have conversation- Bottled water on table is chargeable, this should have been disclosed when you arrive instead of the 'menu explanation' we had (which didnt explain when the mains started) AND the little sign (on an a4 printed paper) saying its chargeable- Fanta was flat- Very small portions for the price. Particularly the chai.- We thought the numbers on the menu were for ease, so we noted down what we wanted by number but the till system records it by the full name without the number- Staff member was evidently not confident with using an ipad for taking orders as it took a painful amount of time to put it through- Waiter felt a bit judgy as we were ordering starters for mains. Kept trying to say from 46 onwards (or something like that) its all mains but we're ordering starters for dinner etc.- Kept trying to upsell saying we're a big table you'd only get a spoon each of the items we were ordering. Again, felt very judged. Same with the rice, you dont want Raita? Onions? Pickle?? It was shameless really- There were times staff would completely disappear from the restaurant floor which wasn't great as customers if you needed something e.g water or tissues or any extra orders. At one point we did want to ask something but waiters were avoiding eye contact, and just going from a to b before leaving the shop alone again.- Waitresses were specifically unenthusiastic.- Had to keep asking for tissues as there just wasnt a lot on the table- Forgot our Masala fries with our starters- Service charge was high and non-discretionary. Given how long things took and our overall experience we did not feel this was justified but they refused to take it off.Edit after owner response: Shockingly rude. Grandad asked for hot water, and we asked for our food after a good 40mins.

Food was nice, we ordered chilli p, chicken tikka and dhaal makhani. All tasted great however the second picture is of the dhaal, which contained kidney beans but the rest just felt like mush. Not bad tasting mush but it wasn’t dhaal.Atmosphere was a bit dry, not busy for a Wednesday night.I would recommend this place the food was nice.

Really loved this restaurant - the punjabi set up and atmosphere created was lovely. The menu had a range of great food choices, and the food was truly authentic, delicious punjabi food. Both Raj and Kiran were very friendly, providing excellent service. We will definitely be coming back here again and would highly recommend this restaurant.

This place is fantastic!! Im on holidy from New Zealand and this just happend to be around the corner from where im staying. Very beautiful waitress who was helpful and kind and the food was incredible! I will be back again for the tika masala as i hear its the best in England! The classic motorcycle out front is a wonderful touch to make it stand out!

Yesterday at 9:45 pm, we entered the restaurant with high expectations of enjoying superb food due to its apparent busyness. However, during the ordering process, the owner seemed talkative and asked us about our taste preferences, assuring us they would prepare the dishes accordingly. Despite giving a clear order, the experience took a disappointing turn. The papad served was fried instead of the requested roasted version, and the Manchurian turned out to be more like flour than a flavorful dish. The amritsari fish was average, and the tandoori half chicken had a well-presented plating but was unfortunately undercooked.The disappointment continued during the main course, as the special chicken roganjosh tasted overwhelmingly of turmeric powder. Even the malai kofta resembled the Manchurian in taste, which was unusual and unsatisfying. The double dal tadka had an excessive garlic base, overpowering its flavors.After waiting for over 30 minutes, the main course was served, but it failed to impress. Unsatisfied with the overall experience, we requested the bill and shared our dissatisfaction with the waitress. She asked us to wait and relayed our concerns to the owner, who, unfortunately, did not come to address the issue.The frustration grew, and we ended up not eating around 20% of the food served in both starters and main course. This experience left us feeling disappointed and upset, as we had never encountered such poor taste and quality before. To share the extent of our dissatisfaction, we even took photos of the uneaten food. It was truly the worst dining experience we have ever had, a regrettable waste of food and money.
