Lovely food especially if you are a bit spice-averse as there are lots of options without chilli. If you love spicy food though you may want to ask for yours to be made hotter, as the people who ordered spicy dishes (2 chilli rating on the menu) said they wanted more heat. The food is so flavourful though and there's so many options. Everything we ordered was from the chefs specialities and they were all super tasty and recommended. The only improvement I could suggest is that they could be faster bringing the card machine after you get the bill, but perhaps they don't want you to feel rushed.

My parents said they'd visited here over 10 years prior, and I can now see why this business is still here! After walking in as the only people in at 5:30, we were seated and got our drinks straight away. The fabulous lamb kebabs held us over until our delicious main course arrived, which also was spectacular. The atmosphere is great, cozy and and the servers polite and conversational. I would advise to take advantage of the bring your own drinks due to the prices of those drinks, but I'm pleased with the value and exceptional quality, and also the service. I can understand people claiming busy times, because this is a restaurant you should definitely visit.

Spot on Indian. Food was fresh and good portions. Maybe 2-3 more than other Indians local but well worth it. Can take your own ale. Sundays and Wednesdays they have a special night, basically less than half price. On a normal night, roughly 20 will get you popadoms, starter, main with rice and a naan bread. The meat in the mains is more than enough and very chunky, falls apart, beautifulky cooked. All naans are freshly baked. Top place to eat. Perfect for dates or bigger partys. Also delivers.

Unfortunately parking is limited, but the service and the food are worth it. We had a lovely evening. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the food was delicious. I will definitely be going again.

Warm welcome to well-lit restaurant conducive to a good meal and good company. Was actually quite cold in first real week of winter, but we were a very early sitting. Service was just right - prompt and professional and the food was good quality too at a fair price.

Great menu and all the dishes we ordered (oart of four) were delicious - exceeded expectations. The service was exceptional and the restaurant itself is a lovely place. Must be one of the top Indian restaurants in the Wirral.

Possibly the best curry house on the wirral. Great food freshly cooked with lots of flavour. Meals can be cooked to your individual requirements just ask.

Been going to the Ruhi for many years and have always enjoyed it. My Dad served in India during WW11 and brought back a love of cooking and recipes. The chicken murgh with apricots (forgive spelling if it’s wrong) took me back to one of his (and my) favourite dishes. It was exquisite.
