Rajbelash

Rajbelash is a smart Indian and Bangladeshi restaurant and takeaway a short walk from Cambridge's main railway station, just south of the city centre. The kitchen specialises in home-style Bengali cooking sat alongside the familiar tandoori dishes, curries and seafood you would hope to find, all prepared with a careful hand on the spicing. It is an inviting room with attentive, professional staff and handy on-site parking, but a good chunk of the business is collection and delivery for people wanting a proper curry night without the cooking.

The tandoor turns out a fragrant Chicken Tikka that is a popular way in, charred at the edges and tender within, with plenty more to explore across the Bengali specialities. The food wins consistent praise online, with Rajbelash rated 4.1/5 on Google from more than two hundred reviews and a strong 4.5 out of 5 on Tripadvisor. It makes a reliable pick for an authentic, freshly cooked Indian meal in this part of town.
