"Reposting this review as I believe both restaurants were involved/at fault. Also left on river grill downstairs. Never have I had such a rude and unprofessional interaction with a waiter. After a long 12 tour in the Highlands we were looking for a quick bite to eat before going home for the night. We walked around the city and were turned away by a couple places because they had no room unless you had a reservation. We walked into River Grill as it looked like a simple restaurant and grill as their sign said with a basic non-fancy menu. The host took us out of the building and upstairs to a more fancy dining area but said don 't worry it 's the same restaurant/food. After a long day all we wanted was soup and salad, not a heavy meal. We tried to order that and the waiter said you 're only eating side dishes? That 's not good enough for us . Apparently you have to spend at least 15 pounds. The way he said it was probably the worst part. He was very loud and kind of made a scene. Unsure how to react to this we said we can order something different. I ordered a glass of wine so mine was 15 pounds. My friend had to order another dish. Spoiler alert, the soup wasn 't even good. The food and service was 1000x better the previous night at 27 across from the castle. After leaving the restaurant it looks like we were actually in the Indian restaurant upstairs. Maybe they are owned by the same person?? Not sure, either way this situation is unacceptable."

"I’ve been using this place off and on for a while but my issue previously is that it is inconsistent almost like they have a good chef and they’ve asked some random dude if he fancies a go at cooking on other occasions. Previously I...had chicken that had the texture of wood, it’s was so strange and inedible I googled it and surprisingly it is actually called wood chicken and it can happen to some chicken however they also said it’s easy to detect when cutting the chicken into chunks so I assume to save money they just took the chance on me and took my £38. After this I ordered and it was a decent meal so I ordered again and this time it was a Sunday so they used a generic, tasteless, been reheated again and again sauce and it was not fresh. I took a break and ordered again and it was ok again and then the next time which was last night sums this place up perfectly. I paid £38 again, never asked for the wood chicken refund cuz I was so disgusted I just wanted to forget, this time the chicken tikka jalfrezi I ordered didn’t even fill half the container and it was luminous red!! Unfortunately like a fool I trusted this place would not try and choke me more than once. I had one mouthful of chicken and it was so hot and overwhelmingly disgusting I couldn’t eat it and and I’d tipped over everything! I called the restaurant and the second guy who came to the phone wasn’t keen on replacing the same night as we do live a fair distance from them so he said he would replace just that dish next time we order. I put the phone down and emailed asking for a full refund or a full replacement meal and they simply ignored me sooooooo, my advice is to use Raj Garden in Notley they have been consistent and always use fresh ingredients and cover the exactly the same area as The Ruby with the difference being they wouldn’t ever serve you chicken in purely chilli powder and then refuse to refund you in full. Making me have to go back there after taking my money and nearly choking me to death is pretty low! Plz avoid this place and use Raj Garden."

"I usually don't say that, but wow!, literally for 2 adults and a baby with facebook messenger! Yes, you have read that right, wasn't sure if it was done, but it was. arrived with a smile greeted by the girl on the recipe, was shown on our table immediately as sitting our menus were given and were left to see it at our own time, the young English waiter asked if we had a high chair for small, the high chair was not the typical cheap one they usually get. we ordered a mixed starter for 2, when it arrived and my wife agreed that it was fresh a delicious! we ordered a lambkarahi and lambnihari both again hot with a lot taste and tasty, for dessert we told ghulab jamun with ice and a blue lagoon tail, the woman said the hot and cold mix of the ghulab jamun was amazing, the blue lagune mocktail was nice, with the glass not full of ice cubes had bombed it. the personal was absolutely amazing, the service and the carelessness that we received, we are so grateful that a worker brought some fresh gurke for our baby to crack, another got a ballon for him, there was always a worker close to who would ask us if we needed something else and if that was proper. I almost forgot that I was in a blackburn restaurant, price was reasonable, will definitely return to the near future, and thank you to all those who yesterday on the 14th february 2022 to our table, again thank you from me and my wife for one night to remember."
