“Expect to queue” for the privilege of eating at this West End institution, an icon of Indian cooking for four decades once sampled by the late, great Anthony Bourdain. It’s known for the “interesting flavours and options” on its menu – “not over-subtle, but very good”, while “the naans are fluffy and the best ever”.

Famous for its “fabulous-quality, carefully seasoned Indian dishes” – this West End institution “can be loud and… well Glaswegian, but the food is delicious”. “Prices are modest”, too, and there’s a “great view of Kelvingrove Museum from the window”.

"The curries here are absolutely delicious and lots of unusual dishes to try. All so tasty and vibrant flavours. The naan with caramalised onions was amazing and will not forget how good it was for a long time to come. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere upstairs is one of contended diners having a good time many on long tables with silver candelabra. "
