Nice ambiance and reasonably priced, but the food was very bland. We had vadai and bhoonda as starters. These were not seasoned properly. There was sambar which was nice but there should have been a separate tamarind and yogurt sauce. For our mains we ordered dosa which was tough to cut into. Didn't seem like it was freshly made.

My husband had been here on a night out from work and said this was the best Indian food he had tasted, and wanted to take me. So tonight I got to sample some great Indian food. The staff are very attentive and the food is excellent. We will be back again.

I visited this restaurant with a big celibration party and a set buffet was put on. The food was excellent and i think we all had seconds. I'll be going back to try again

Eat here as often as possible. Naan bread best ever. Rice portions if anything too big! All the food excellent, and the staff so helpful. The curries were excellent and all meat tender as could be. Will definitely go back soon.

We eat at Rishi's once a week. Their dishes are superb and a great value. I recommend sharing an entree and starter if you are not terribly hungry! The staff is friendly and accommodating!

Rishi's was not the most well known to us as a curry house of choice (we were more accustomed to Aberdeen's 'big hitters' - Cinnamon, Blue Moon, Manzil etc.) and it was only after visiting with a family member and a mutual Indian friend who had recommended this place were our opinions changed. The food felt authentic, flavoursome, rich and... More

I visited here with a groupon voucher which provided excellent value for money. The staff are very attentive and have a good knowledge of the food. You must try the dosa's they are lovely and something I look forward to having again.
