A well kept secret in the south side, at one point won the culinary Olympics. Very reasonable prices. I used to go in here decades ago and had stopped eating out due to circumstance, but for my money the best in Glasgow.

Loved it here. Visited on Saturday with my partner and father in law and his partner. Food was great. Starter was quick to the table and was freshly made with decent sized portions. Mains did take a while though but it did get quite busy so wasn't a major issue. Mains were fresh, hot and big portions. Special thanks to the old waiter who was full of banter and jokes. Will definitely be back.

5 stars! One of the best Indians we have had in a long time. The customer service was great, the waiter asked what flavours we liked and helped us pick the most amazing dishes. The food had great depth of flavour and cooked to perfection. Was fantastic!

First time back in many years and it didn't disappoint my main problem was choosing from their huge menu and I'm not exaggerating of course there are all the old favourites but also some of their speciality dishes and chef choices are fantastic! Would highly recommend.

Food is really great. Best curries in the Southside. Staff are super friendly and accommodating. We frequently take away too which also doesn’t disappoint.

We went as a party of 6, my partners son took us. It doesn't look much from the outside ,but don't judge a book by its cover. Inside a warm welcome from Chico and his staff. The menu is like a book and if you still can't find anything or not sure ask Chico to get Chef to knock something up. To give you an idea of the menu choice 16 different nans, 13 different flavoured rices made of pure Basmati . They blend different sauces to come up with unique flavours. My partner went for a Chicken Schaslik which came with a salad and rice. I had Janter Manter very nice medium to hot. Washed down with mineral water and diet cokes as no alcohol aloud in Glasgow. The best curry house I've been in. Some may say a little expensive. But you pay for quality and that's what you get with excellent service and friendly banter from Chico and staff. Well worth a visit.

Most excellent Glasgow southside Asian restaurant. Huge menu. Staff also pride themselves on making any dish you may desire. The restaurant is on Battlefield rd opposite Langside College at junction of Holmlea Rd..Tonight we had pakora mix ( 4 varieties of your own choice followed by Keema Lamb Masala( minced lamb ) and chicken Korma with pilau rice and Peshwari Nan. excellent, tasty and delicious. Thoroughly recommended. 9/1/23 Visited tonight again with friend who had not been before Food was exquisite as usual. Chicken tikka on a bed of fried onions with Patia sauce accompaniment was very tasty. This is the perfect place for atmosphere for eating and conversing without any loud music or noise. 19/8/23 No changes. Usual standard of excellence. Tonight was a sharing experience. Pakora mix of Veg,Chicken, mushroom and cauliflower followed by Tandoori mixed platter of Lamb, chicken and King Prawn accompanied by pilau rice and Peshwari Nan. Another evening of c ulinary delights 24/12/23 The restaurant was beautifully decorated for Christmas and food was lovely as ever. Thank you Alishan. 20/7/24 Restaurant and food as excellent as ever.8.
