Mother India

28 Westminster Terrace, Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G3 7RU

Mother India's original restaurant, opened in 1990, has a reputation that keeps the place filled most days. This Glasgow favourite has played a major part in pushing the boundaries of Indian cuisine in the city in those intervening years. It has…

Steak

14 Picardy Place, Edinburgh, EH1 3JT

After launching in 2012, Steak has settled into its stride, delivering its red meat extravaganza to an enthusiastic audience. It’s all here: a trio of breeds, all Scottish, served on or off the bone, in (standard) 200g all the way up to (Man vs Food…

The Hidden Lane Tearoom

8 Argyle Court, 1103 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8ND

The Hidden Lane Tearoom is hidden only in name. Despite being just a couple of years old, it has clearly established a serious following, which means that at weekends, it can often get pretty busy – despite having two levels. Somehow though, owner…

Roastit Bubbly Jocks

450 Dumbarton Road, Glasgow, G11 6SE

This unique eatery encapsulates the gallus Partick outlook to restaurant interiors with its candlelit tables, art deco lamps and an eccentric Mondrian-inspired wall hanging made with contrasting slices of polished Scottish wood. As expected it has a…

Chop Chop

248 Morrison Street, Edinburgh, EH3 8DT

Chop Chop

76 Commercial Street, Edinburgh, EH6 6LX

Chop Chop in Leith was built on the reputation of the original outlet in Haymarket. Opened in 2010, it shares an identical menu to its sister restaurant, but the aim here seems to be to provide a more laidback and sophisticated atmosphere than the buzz…

Mithas

7 Dock Place, Edinburgh, EH6 6LU

London may have a number of fine-dining Indian restaurants but Khushi’s offshoot Mithas is the only place in Edinburgh offering such a high-end experience. The beautifully lit dark wood interior is divided into three sections, one offering a view of the…

Chillies West End

176–182 Woodlands Road, Glasgow, G3 6LL

On vibrant Woodlands Road, Chillies attracts nearby students and West-enders seeking a contemporary and gratifying Indian experience. Many are tempted by the mouthwatering domination of tapas dishes that offer small bowls of appetizing, well-spiced…

Cail Bruich

725 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G12 8QX

Cail Bruich’s menu so eschews the fashion for flowery descriptions it could have been written by the Plain English Society. The polite list of ingredients doesn’t even hint at the theatre and dazzling artiness of delivered dishes. Chef Chris Charalambus…

EH15

Jewel and Esk College, 24 Milton Road East, Edinburgh, EH15 2PP

Jewel & Esk College's the Club offers a variety of recreational facilities, open to the general public, which provide students with an opportunity for real-life work experience. EH15 Restaurant & Bar is the hospitality arm of this set-up and…

Assam’s

57 West Regent Street, Glasgow, G2 2AE

There’s a strong pedigree of curry capital here. Assam himself is a former Mother India manager who decided to establish his own place in 2009. He also poached his wee brother when he left the West End for the city centre. Intriguingly the menu states…

Karen's Unicorn

112 St Stephen Street, Edinburgh, EH3 5AD
