Reviews
Truly incredible destination for some wonderful Indian food in the south side of Glasgow. The menu is extensive, but not overwhelming and everything on it is superb. Cooked fresh, delicious and perfectly presented. I go every time I visit Glasgow and that tradition will continue for a long time to come. I've never used the takeaway myself, but the constant queue of people arriving to collect food is testament enough. Don't walk, run, to the Turban Tandoori
Read on Google MapsAs a food blogger, I was invited to the first year celebrations of this restaurant and I got to try some of their fantastic dishes. Everything was outstanding; service, food quality and atmosphere. I loved the curries and the garlic naan was second to none!Would recommend this place and will definitely be coming back.
Read on Google MapsJust back & really impressed, chicken pakora was soft & succulent & dipping sauces were really good, wife had mushroom pakora & loved it. Had the chicken tikka Chasni & it also was amazing, full of flavour with really soft tender chicken. We got the garlic cheese naan & that Also was superb. Met wee Jai he's a credit to the restaurant, very friendly & helpful. Would highly recommend this place, was definitely worth the half hour drive for us 👌
Read on Google MapsFirst time eating out for Christmas dinner, a little bit apprehensive, looking back on memories of many works nights out at Christmas where the meal was a very rushed and 9 times out of 10, a very average affair. Could not have been more wrong. An excellent meal, excellent service and a very Christmassy time was had by all. Fabulous curries, all the usual suspects on the menu, and huge desserts to end. Santa even appeared for a chat and to hand out gifts. This way exceeded my expectations and all being well, I will be back for next Christmas.
