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…
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…
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…
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…
Charcoals
26A Renfield Street, Glasgow, G2 1LU
Situated on one of the city's busiest traffic streets, it would be easy to mistake Charcoals for just another takeaway, but its restaurant is surprisingly cosy. Under new management since January 2011, staff explain details of the menu as they flit…
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…
Rawalpindi Tandoori
321 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3HW
As one of the elder statesmen of Glasgow’s curry scene, Rawalpindi has been serving Indian favourites to a wide demographic since 1979. The restaurant itself has moved with the times; a recent facelift resulting in neutral tones that make for a warm and…
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…
Indian Gallery
450 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3JD
This modern tandoori restaurant offers mid-range dining on the busy main drag of Sauchiehall St. Sleek service meets Bhangra and Bollywood bling in an intimate but comfortable setting. Images featuring Bollywood stars and cultural icons adorn shiny…
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…
Akbar's
573–581 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G3 7PQ
A bold new arrival on the Glasgow curry scene, Akbar's 11th UK restaurant is its first in Scotland. This is a large venue (formerly the Tiffin Rooms) where you're never more than a few feet from an enthusiastic member of staff. Hundreds of tangerine…
Chillies West End
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…
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…
Bukharah
Lorne Hotel, 923 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G3 7TQ
Exposed brickwork and duct pipes give Bukharah an industrial feel that is complemented with contemporary furnishings, warm lighting and carefully positioned partitions that create an atmosphere more intimate than a space this size should. The…
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…
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
A relative newcomer to Glasgow’s curry scene, Masala Twist certainly manages to hold its own, pulling some surprising punches. The staff instantly make you feel welcome, in a genuine, honest, and natural manner. Split over two small floors, the…
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…
Mr India's Balti and Dosa House
11–13 Hyndland Street, Glasgow, G11 5QE
Time has stood still on the 1980’s décor of this traditional curry house, yet its hearty no-frills menu attracts plenty of evening regulars from the neighbourhood. Friendly staff serve up super-sized portions of traditional Indian dishes such as…
Alishan Tandoori
250 Battlefield Road, Glasgow, G42 9HU
A familiar spot in suburban Battlefield, Alishan Tandoori has been delighting locals for over 25 years. After passing between two huge fish tanks that keep takeaway customers largely out of view of the small dining space, diners can flick through pages…
Neelim
1590 Dumbarton Road, Glasgow, G14 9DB
After two decades of serving loyal Scotstoun locals, Neelim must be doing something right. Couples and families flock here, whether it be for a sit-down dinner or some takeaway dishes to enjoy at home, and it can fill up even on week nights. The menu…
The Verandah Tandoori
17 Dalry Road, Edinburgh, EH11 2BQ

Ignite
272–274 Morrison Street, Edinburgh, EH3 8DT
The name of this Haymarket restaurant implies something different than its simple, smartly decorated interior. Perhaps it refers to the food from a menu offering the north Indian and Bengali dishes now so familiar to us in the UK. Here they're certainly…
The Clay Oven
86 Morningside Road, Edinburgh, EH10 4BY
A steady stream of business flocks to this neighbourhood restaurant, and passing trade is not the secret. Loyal Morningside residents provide the mainstay for success in an establishment where pristine white linen tablecloths and handsomely uniformed…
The Indian Cavalry Club
22 Coates Crescent, Edinburgh, EH3 7AF
This West End institution, which celebrates its 25th anniversary in 2012, is where the old Raj meets modern day Edinburgh. Funky screen prints on the wall look down on crisp linen tablecloths and waiters in military-style uniforms serve classic Indian…
Kasturi
35–37 Shandwick Place, Edinburgh, EH2 4RG
When Kasturi opened its doors in 2010, the owners talked of their delight at securing a site that they had wanted for years – you wonder if they feel the same today. The closure of Shandwick Place for over a year due to tramworks will undoubtedly hurt…
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…
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…
Lancers Brasserie
5 Hamilton Place, Edinburgh, EH3 5BA
Lancers Brasserie continues to bring Bengali-inspired North Indian cuisine to its long-established Stockbridge setting. Split across two ground floor rooms and a separate basement area for private dining, the décor is crisp and contemporary with…

4–6 Lochrin Buildings, Gilmore Place, Edinburgh, EH3 9NB

Mezbaan Mezbaan South Indian Restaurant
14/14a Brougham Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9JH
It’s rare in Edinburgh to find Indian restaurants with regional specificity, so Mezbaan is welcome in introducing flavours from the country’s south, especially since it has one of Britain’s best South Asian chefs at the helm. Coconut is a prominent…
Indian Lounge
129a Rose Street, Edinburgh, EH2 3DT
The family-run Indian Lounge is central enough for most of the city to grab a curry on their way home, and there’s a lot to recommend that you do. Prices are considerably more reasonable than you might expect from the central – or any – location, staff…
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…
Namaste Kathmandu
17–19 Forrest Road, Edinburgh, EH1 2QH
Nepalese and Indian crossover Namaste Kathmandu brings a splash of Himalayan colour and cuisine to its busy Forrest Road location. Influences from neighbouring Tibet and beyond deliver Szechuan spicing and the satisfying minced chicken or vegetable…
Zest Zest
15 North St Andrew Street, Edinburgh, EH2 1HJ
A sophisticated restaurant just off St Andrew Square, Zest has a short menu with a focus on North Indian cuisine and it's packed with dishes rarely, if ever, seen elsewhere in the city. Salmon 65, a dish pioneered in the high-end hotels of Goa, is a…
9 Cellars Thali
1–3 York Place, Edinburgh, EH1 3EB
Don’t judge this restaurant by the glowing photographs of food in the window display. To get an idea, just speak to chef and owner Phool Thakur, who’ll tell you of his history cooking in some fine establishments in India, and now serves much more than…
Khushi’s Diner
32b West Nicolson Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9DD
For the last couple of years this has been the locus of the veteran Khushi’s brand, long-time staple of the Edinburgh curry scene. The Newington incarnation is designed with good cheer in mind, with a mix of red banquettes and cosy tables interspersed…
Saffrani
11 South College Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9AA
This small restaurant tucked away off Nicolson Street has retained its all-round quality through a recent change in ownership, with an extensive list of curries from a variety of Indian regions. To start, chicken chat is a substantial dish of spicy…
Kebab Mahal
7 Nicolson Square, Edinburgh, EH8 9BH
Situated in Nicolson Square since the late 1970s, Kebab Mahal is a no-frills Indian café and takeaway offering hearty fare at affordable prices. The menu favours the hungry meat-eater, with chicken and lamb classics, kebabs and tandoori dishes well…
Mother India's Café
3–5 Infirmary Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1LT

Suruchi
14a Nicolson Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9DH
Sitting directly opposite the Festival Theatre, Suruchi will always attract late-night diners and pre-theatre bargain hunters. The real challenge is to inspire regulars in this highly competitive neck of the woods. The owners seem alive to criticism of…
Ann Purna
45 St Patrick's Square, Edinburgh, EH8 9ET
Tucked away in the corner of St. Patrick’s Square, Ann Purna offers a wide range of vegetarian cuisine inspired by the state of Gujarat on India's west coast. Popular mixed veg bhajias and pakora starters mix with Indian street snacks such as kachori…
Khushi's
10 Antigua Street, Edinburgh, EH1 3NH
Sixty-five years since its first appearance and half a dozen venues later, Indian stalwart Khushi’s has popped up on Antigua Street near the top of Leith Walk. Behind its extensive glazed frontage waiters bustle between a separate raised area reserved…
Voujon
107 Newington Road, Edinburgh, EH9 1QW
Despite sitting at the bottom of Newington Road, Voujon has always eschewed the traditional neighbourhood restaurant look and gone for a more polished, city centre feel. The primarily Bengali and North Indian menu has plenty of familiar names, but more…
Assam's Café
1 Albert Street, Edinburgh, EH7 5HN
Opened in March 2012, Assam’s brings to Edinburgh a combination of Indian café and deli that has become a feature in Glasgow. On street level, under a glittering chandelier and surrounded by gold-flecked tiles, a smattering of informal tables sit…
