Harden's survey result
Summary
“First-rate Indian tapas coupled with brisk-but-not-brusque service” is the pleasing offer at this “efficiently run” offshoot of the well-known Glasgow group. There’s “often a slight twist to the dishes to elevate your eating experience further”, and it’s “such good value, especially the lunchtime set menu”.
Summary
“Delicious, perfectly cooked Indian small plates always hit the spot” at this spin-off from the well-known Glasgow original, which – with a convenient and very atmospheric location – nowadays achieves greater feedback than the original. Although billed as ‘tapas’, “helpings are more than generous”.
Summary
This spin-off from the famous Glasgow original “never fails to hit the spot” with its “terrific” Indian cooking, served in tapas-sized portions to taste and share. It’s “great for lunch after a visit to the Dovecot Studios”, a contemporary tapestry gallery next door in Edinburgh’s Old Town.
Summary
“Wonderful Indian-style tapas” – “well cooked, well served and always worth booking when in Edinburgh”. This spin-off in the Scottish capital’s Old Town lives up to the reputation established by the iconic Glasgow original.
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
