Punjab'n de Rasoi
122–124 Leith Walk, Edinburgh, EH6 5DT
A community café whose set-up was funded by a government grant sounds like a very worthy affair, but such a description, while accurate, doesn't do justice to this fantastic venture serving up home-cooked style Sikh cuisine at the foot of Leith Walk. A…
The Spice Pavilion
3a1 Dundas Street, Edinburgh, EH3 6QG
What do you get if you cross Italian hospitality and Indian inventiveness in the kitchen? Husband and wife team, Parwaiz and Cristina Khan have done just that and come up with a superb neighbourhood restaurant. With the exception of tandoori dishes…
Gandhi's
50 East Fountainbridge, Edinburgh, EH3 9BH
Gandhi's narrow frontage just off Lothian Road frames a compact restaurant of muted tones offering distinctively flavoured and well balanced Indian and Bangladeshi fare. There’s no alcohol licensing so sparkling mango juice and creamy thick sweet or…
Iman's
4–6 Lochrin Buildings, Gilmore Place, Edinburgh, EH3 9NB
Sitting across from the King's Theatre, Iman’s delivers hearty Punjabi fare with a sociable BYOB vibe. The restaurant splits into two rooms of randomly pebble-dashed sandy walls, driftwood ceilings and agreeable lighting set against the background hum…
Kama Sutra
105-109 Lothian Road, Edinburgh, EH3 9AN
Following in the footsteps of Glasgow and Stirling, November 2011 saw the appearance of Kama Sutra on Lothian Road. With menu and décor consistency across all venues, exposed brickwork, dark wood furniture and imported carved artwork lend warmth to the…
Bonoful
13–17 Brighton Place, Edinburgh, EH15 1LH
Situated in Portobello, Bonoful has successfully built a reputation among regulars, and as word spreads is attracting custom from further afield. With a pristine modern minimalist interior, the menu specialises in Bangladeshi food but also includes…

Café India
29 Albion Street, Glasgow, G1 1LH
Having recently been taken over by Tony Hussain, Café India has some big ideas and great expectations. From a Sunday morning cookery school to Indian tapas and Scottish ale evenings, there’s plenty going on. The large dining area remains divided, with a…
Thali
42 Albion Street, Glasgow, G1 1LH
Thali offers something different from the multitude of Indian restaurants nestled around Merchant City. The decor may look already slightly dated with its Artex walls and faded red carpet—but the food certainly is not. Referring to a charmingly…
Dakhin
89 Candleriggs, Glasgow, G1 1NP
The Dakhin offers something different from the array of Indians in and around Merchant City. It’s a Southern Indian speciality restaurant – not a pakora, korma or rogan josh in sight. The fragrant, aromatic scents of coconut and curry leaves waft…
KoolBa KoolBa
109 Candleriggs, Glasgow, G1 1NP
Koolba sits well in the heart of the hustle of Merchant City. Its Persian influences are evident from the rich colour scheme, vibrant canopied ceiling, and, more importantly, enticing aromas – all exuding a warm, welcoming charm that attracts a mixed…
Urban Pind
18 Candleriggs, Glasgow, G1 1LD
More traditional than its Candleriggs neighbours, Urban Pind divides two large dining areas with a fish pond, while thick carpets and Indian artworks set a conventional tone. The family-run business focuses on the popular Punjabi cuisine to great…
The Dhabba
44 Candleriggs, Glasgow, G1 1LE
From huge prints illustrating Indian life, to the scents drifting from the kitchen, the Dhabba experience begins the moment you walk into the spacious, relaxed setting. The modern North Indian specialist has enjoyed a decade of success in the heart of…
Assam’s
57 West Regent Street, Glasgow, G2 2AE
Assam’s has quickly affirmed itself as a City Centre mainstay, having only been in its current premises two years. The restaurant is grand and elegant, with split level dining and huge luxurious circular booths – it certainly has the air of fine dining…
Southern Spice
325 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3HW
A delightful surprise awaits those that enter this brightly lit, minimally decorated, restaurant. Among a plethora of Indian restaurants on Sauchiehall St and nearby, Southern Spice holds it own against much bigger, older and better-known…
Kebabish Grill
323–325 Victoria Road, Glasgow, G42 7SA
Kebabish promises authentic Desi cooking and remains a firm favourite with diners in Glasgow's multicultural Southside. It is bright, clean and modern, staff are dressed smartly in black uniforms, and it doesn't sell alcohol – not surprising then, that…
Koh-i-Noor
235 North Street, Glasgow, G3 7DL
Having served up Indian cuisine since 1964, Koh-i-Noor is part of the fabric of Glasgow’s curry culture. When it relocated to Charing Cross in 1983, the already reputable restaurant speculated on future success and created a cavernous 150-cover…
Cafe Salma
523 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G3 7PQ
It’s easy to see why this Charing Cross venue remains a firm favourite with locals and beyond. Initially there’s the warm welcome from the owner, Hassan Melloul, who greets everyone like an old friend. Then the rich décor of burned orange and red…

176–182 Woodlands Road, Glasgow, G3 6LL
Close to what was once upon a time the heart of Glasgow's curry scene, Chillies aims to bring a touch of fervour to Woodlands Road. Its exposed brickwork, muted colour scheme and subdued lighting offers an intimate atmosphere – enhanced by its…
Alishan Tandoori
250 Battlefield Road, Glasgow, G42 9HU

Mother India
28 Westminster Terrace, Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G3 7RU
A much-loved Glasgow institution, Mother India's flagship restaurant is set over three floors, each with its own unique character. The small dining area on the ground floor is bright and casual, the first floor is grand with dark wood and candles, and…
India Quay
181 Finnieston Street, Glasgow, G3 8HE
With impressive views of the Clyde Arc, aka squinty bridge, the north Punjabi-influenced cuisine at India Quay is well worth the trip to Finneston’s outskirts, while its seven-day pre-theatre menu makes it a perfect starting point for anyone attending a…
Mother India's Café
1355 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8AD
It’s not uncommon to see queues of hungry diners outside this tapas-style take on Indian cuisine, highlighting both its popularity and the fact it doesn’t take bookings. But don’t let a short wait put you off – there’s always the grandeur of Kelvingrove…
Ashoka Ashton Lane
19 Ashton Lane, Glasgow, G12 8SJ
You’d be forgiven for thinking you had stepped back in time upon entering the charming Ashton Lane branch of the popular Ashoka chain. Things haven’t changed much since they first opened their doors 20 years ago – but that’s exactly the point, they…
Masala Twist
192–194 Byres Road, Glasgow, G12 8SN

Banana Leaf
76B Old Dumbarton Road, Glasgow, G3 8RE
The Banana Leaf offers good value, authentic Indian food. From an extensive menu, the manager is happy to make recommendations and even demonstrate cooking to curious customers. Don't miss their famous dosas – huge lentil and rice pancakes, thin, crispy…
Balbir's Balbir's Saffron Lounge
61 Kilmarnock Road, Glasgow, G41 3YR
With mood-lighting, dark décor and a grand piano opposite an oak bar, this deceptively large Shawlands restaurant doesn’t feel like an Indian, but that’s part of its charm. And charming it is, with candles on tables and jazz on the stereo while in the…
Balbir's Balbir's
7 Church Street, Glasgow, G11 5JP
Balbir Sumal’s years of experience in catering for Glasgow’s curry lovers distinctively shines through in this eponymous West End branch. It may feel more like an upmarket European eatery, but the appetizing aromas that assault you as you enter firmly…
Rasoi Indian Kitchen
120 Dumbarton Road, Glasgow, G11 6NY
Having changed its name last year, Rasoi is now run by a family with years of experience throughout the city. The décor is low key, with the emphasis on a café-style approach. The prices are also more café than restaurant –but don’t be fooled, this is a…
