Glasgow restaurant
Mowgli Street Food Glasgow is part of Mowgli, the Indian street-food chain founded by barrister-turned-restaurateur Nisha Katona, who opened the first Mowgli in Liverpool in 2014. According to Glasgow Live and GlasgowWorld, the Glasgow branch opened on Easter Monday, 18 April 2022, as the chain's first Scottish restaurant. It occupies the corner of St Vincent Street and Renfield Street in the Phoenix Assurance Building, a site previously used by Handmade Burger Co. (The Scotsman, Glasgow Times). The menu focuses on what Mowgli calls the food Indians eat at home and on their streets, rather than heavy cream-based curries. Team favourites listed on the official page are Gunpowder Chicken (chickpea-battered chicken poppers), Mother Butter Chicken and the Mowgli Chocolate Brownie. The dining room is styled with vine-wrapped trees, fairy lights and indoor rope swing seats, which cannot be booked. Opening hours are Monday to Thursday 12pm–10pm, Friday and Saturday 12pm–11pm, and Sunday 12pm–10pm. Bookings and walk-ins are both accepted. The restaurant is dog-friendly, has baby-change facilities, and lists vegan and gluten-friendly options. There are two private dining rooms, seating up to 14 and up to 22 guests, which can be combined for up to 36. The Glasgow branch supports the Beatson Cancer Charity.
We ordered butter chicken and a Mowgli Special chicken with coconutmilk. Never get a small portion like this in an Indian restaurant - rice has to be ordered separately. Food was served before drinks - we tried two mocktails! Really yummy mocktails - food was okay but wasn’t hot. For sure the Ambiente is amazing and the reason we went there!
Read on Google MapsFood was good , we had the Tiffin menu. The Temple Dahl was disappointing didn’t have much flavour but the their dishes were nice. Atmosphere was good and decor is beautiful but those swing chairs are not comfortable at all and my husband found that they limited the use of his arms in turn ruining the enjoyment of his meal.
Read on Google MapsStaff are always helpfull , friendly and are very experienced, the venus are always stunning you can tell the attention thats went into their concept , the food is stunning ,you will try things you never liked before, things you have never herd of and try things you will fall in love with . We love the way you order a few dishes at a time and they come to you as they are ready , you can order more when ever you want ,it's reasonably priced so if you dont like something , order something else . The portions may look small but they are not and I am a big eater , if you go you have to have the chat bombs , pop them in your mouth in one and crunch down on them and experience the explosion of flavour and texture .
Read on Google MapsFood and drinks were excellent, staff were first class and knew there stuff. Not alot of atmosphere however we were seated upstairs away from main floor but that wasnt the staffs fault just circumstance. Would happily return.
Read on Google MapsWe went for an early dinner. Being vegetarian, I could only try the veg options. We ordered the Indian School Tiffin, roti, mango lassi, and yogurt chaat bombs. The food was delicious, and the staff were very friendly. The chef was kind enough to offer us a complimentary serving of the yogurt chaat bombs😍, which we really enjoyed. I also loved the swing-style seating — such a fun touch! Overall, we had a great time and the service was quick. My only small issue was that the paneer curry was a bit too sweet for my taste.
