Suruchi
14a Nicolson Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DH
Suruchi prides itself on representing every corner of India within its expansive menu. So you'll find plenty of paneer – cheese – dishes from the north, Goan king prawn curry from the west, and spicy chicken and fish dishes from the east. The chef has…
9 Cellars Restaurant and Bar
1–3 York Place,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3EB
As Indian restaurants go, 9 Cellars is one of the more unusual. Not only does its impressively long menu boast unfamiliar dishes unseen anywhere else, but the space itself is a labyrinth of intimate eating corners on different levels rather than the…
Bombay Bicycle Club
6–6a Brougham Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9HW
As this guide went to press, the well-known Bombay Bicycle Club near Tollcross was undergoing a major refurbishment. There are plans to unveil the new look in April or May 2008. For updates contact the restaurant directly or check The List's Eating…
Dakhin
89 Candleriggs,
Glasgow,
G1 1NP
With its discrete entrance and first-floor location, Dakhin could easily be missed among the plethora of busy restaurants and bars in Candleriggs. Those who are curious – or cunning – enough to venture upstairs, however, will be welcomed into an…
The Dhabba
44 Candleriggs,
Glasgow,
G1 1LE
This Merchant City establishment continues to consolidate its place among the best Indian restaurants in Glasgow. The open, airy venue is sleek and modern with bare wooden furnishings and minimal decorative embellishments, which encourages diners to pay…
Mr Singh's India
149 Elderslie Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7JR
During our reviewing period for this edition of the Eating & Drinking Guide in early 2008, Mr Singh's was undergoing a bit of cosmetic surgery. We expect that after the building renovations are completed, however, this stylish restaurant will remain one…
Namaste Kathmandu
17–19 Forrest Road,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2QH
In a city with no shortage of Indian restaurants, it would be easy for a new kid on the block to blend into the crowd. Namaste, however, is a very welcome addition to the Edinburgh scene. Combing elements of Indian and Nepalese cuisine, the menu here…
Zest
15 North St Andrew Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1HJ
Although Zest is ostensibly your standard, fairly modern curry house, there are many reasons to recommend it. The service is great – genial but never overbearing. The fact that you can get a late feast here also adds to the appeal: owner Asaddar Ali…
The Clay Oven
86 Morningside Road,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4BY
Located at the Bruntsfield/Morningside crossover point, the Clay Oven feels very much like a neighbourhood restaurant. Well laid out, with smart décor and attentive staff, it's the kind of place you can rely on. The food may not rock your world, but…
The Ashoka
108 Elderslie Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7AR
At this independent restaurant (which, despite its name, is not part of the Harlequin chain), lively hen parties and office groups tend to head for the 'curry karaoke' below street level, while the main dining space, branded the Ashoka Flame, offers a…
Ashoka Ashton Lane
19 Ashton Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 8SJ
The Harlequin Group's operation on Ashton Lane is most popular with local students and other people seeking an inexpensive meal before – or after – hitting the cobbled street's busy bars. The restaurant is decorated in shades of orange and brown with a…
Charcoals
26A Renfield Street,
Glasgow,
G2 1LU
Charcoals' colourful interiors, and its reliable and occasionally excellent Punjabi cuisine, make it a good choice in the city centre. The main draws here are the great value lunchtime buffet – popular with local office workers – and the generous…
Panjea
15–17 Kent Road,
Glasgow,
G3 7EH
This restaurant is named after Earth's Paleozoic supercontinent, a fitting title given its capacity to cater for 350 diners over two floors, with the top one reserved for groups and the infamous curry karaoke. The ground level has a modern ambience…
Red Fort
10 Drummond Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9TU
While the exterior of the Red Fort colour co-ordinates boldly with its name, there is nothing brash about the bright and airy interior. Clean cut and contemporary, it manages to unite style with comfort, making this a great place to chill out over some…
Shamoli
105 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1SG
Tucked away at the top of a curved flight of old stone steps, this newcomer to the High Street confidently declares its presence with a flurry of signs and neon lights in the window. As with its sister restaurant Mya, on Commercial Quay in Leith, the…
Mezbaan South Indian Restaurant
14/14a Brougham Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9JH
Not to be outdone by its culinarily colourful neighbours, who serve up Kurdish, Italian, east African and Thai treats on the same street, this Tollcross restaurant specialises in southern Indian food, which tends to be healthier and less oily than…
The Raj on the Shore
91 Henderson Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6ED
A huge welcoming smile on arrival is the first indication of the kind of cheerful experience that is eating at The Raj. With prices on Sunday to Thursday nights slashed to what they were at the famous curry house back in 1983, rather large smiles appear…
Rawalpindi Tandoori
321 Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3HW
Established some three decades ago, Rawalpindi describes its 'fine Indian cuisine' as 'probably the best in Glasgow'. The atmosphere inside the eatery, where swathes of pink material hang from the ceiling along with some rather wilted pot plants and a…
Ashoka West End
1284 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8AB
Established over 25 years ago, Ashoka West End claims to sit on the corner of the longest street and the shortest road in Glasgow. It is undoubtedly something of a local landmark. Split over two levels, there is a bar and 25 seats at ground level and…
Bay of Bengal
164 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1QS
Located right in the heart of the busiest stretch of the Royal Mile, Bay of Bengal is a long-established curry house serving predominantly North Indian and Bangladeshi cuisine. Modest in size, it does expand outdoors when the weather allows. Inside, the…
Killermont Polo Club
2022 Maryhill Road,
Glasgow,
G20 0AB
Located on an unremarkable section of Maryhill Road in a former polo clubhouse, this restaurant attracts most of its custom through glowing recommendations rather than luring the passing trade. The main dining room is decorated in the style of a hotel…
Suruchi Too
121 Constitution Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 7AE
Whether you're out partying with a group of friends or looking for a romantic evening for two, Suruchi Too seems to conjure up the right atmosphere. The elegant columned entrance and smart waiting area gives your dining experience a sense of occasion.
Britannia Spice
150 Commercial Street, Ocean Drive,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LB
Taking its name from one of the world's most famous ships, now moored as nearby in the lively environs of Leith, Britannia Spice has an overtly nautical theme that suits its mix of north Indian, Bangladeshi, Thai and Nepalese cuisine surprisingly well.
Sibbo's Delhi Dhabba
914 Sauchiehall Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 7TF
This family-owned restaurant, which opened in 2004, is run by four brothers under the watchful eye of their mother Sibbo. There's much that's charming about the place, from the living room-sized dining area to the homely atmosphere. But Sibbo's Delhi…
