Reviews in Scotland

My Husband and i wanted somewhere quick on a Wednesday evening and found this delightful restaurant Balbir's in Church St just off Byres rd the food was of very high quality the Lamb Saag is sooooo good! I wanted to stay forever the staff are so attentive and price wise you got your money's worth this is one place we will be making a regular haunt if you haven't yet tried it go you will not be disappointed we loved it. We are taking some friends to it next week and are looking forward to a monthly meeting there for our regular ruby murray's!!

If you are only wanting to satisfy your curry urge then you won't be disappointed, however, if you are looking for authentic Indian food then forget it, it is the usual cheap food coloring sort of place where everything tastes much the same. OK if you are desperate for a lunch time bargain but not the type of place you would go for a right good meal or a special occasion ...unless you are riff raff or not aware of what a good curry actually is.

Went in with my friends for a girly night. Everything was great. Loved our meal, which our waitor recommended. We have already booked for our next visit. Can't wait. I'm already dreaming about those sweet chick peas with the bread.

Dreadful service - do not go to this restaurant

I was there for lunch with other members of my family, Wednesday, 22nd October. We had heard about The Kitchin and were absolutely delighted with the ambience, the service and of course the food. We all thoroughly enjoyed our courses. We started with an amuse bouche of game consome and went on to have starters of veal terrine and oysters. Delicious! Next came the mains of mallard or cod. Both beautifully done. We all enjoyed the taste explosions of the main ingredients plus the trimmings. The desserts of chocolate mousse and lemon torte were equally fantastic. Would definitely go back again. Tom Kitchin and his wife were there and were very friendly and welcoming! Great experience and not too expensive.

I have been going to the Anarkali restaurant for many years as it is the best Indian restaurant in Glasgow without doubt, if not Britain. I have only sampled 5 or 6 Indian restaurants outside of Glasgow in places such as Manchester, London and Aberdeen to name a few, though none of them compare to this hidden gem. A Lot of Glasgow punters bang on about Cafe India and The Village so I sampled them myself which I later regretted. The reason for this is I did not taste the same passion that I do with the Anarkalis food. The quality of food for sale in the Anarkali and size of portions make even the most dubious of curry lovers quiver. My tipple is the Chicken Tikka Tandoori Sizzlar which comes with rice or nan, salad and a quality curry sauce (which i use the next day for a prawn curry). My girlfriend always goes for the classic Chicken Bhoona which really does rock her world. For starters I would recommend Vegitable pakora, for its freshness and size of portion, as well as the Chicken Chaat for its sheer quality of texture. To top it all off the staff are bubbly and really enthusiastic about their food and this shows when your food is delivered to your table or door with take aways being a great option on a Sunday when we all sometimes get that dreaded hangover! In summary if your looking for a real hidden gem then look no further than Victoria Road and make the Anarkali your local Indian food place.

I would recommend to stay away. My ex worked their for a while and lets just say the chefs have a fun time with the food. Plus their beer pipes have never been cleaned, roll on a headache!!!

Recently ate in this restaurant and was subjected to approx.10 minutes of cold air being blown from fan above shortly after we had been served our food(MY DAUGHTER AGED 10YRS HAD TO PUT ON FLEECE WHILST COMPLAINING ABOUT COLD)Asked if cold air could be turned off and told that "it wouldn't last much longer!?" On completion of meal asked manager why cold air could not have turned off immediately.Manager made comments about restaurant being "an old building"but when asked about why cold blowing air was not turned off immediately did not want to comment.No apology was given, no recognition that cold air could have caused discomfort during meal was acknowledged.Further, manager proved to be abusive by stating to writer that he was "shouting his mouth off"This was done in front of waiting staff and other customers. Manager made further sarcastic comment regarding food bill payment,but payment made in full despite circumstances. As to recommendation of cafe hula ,iwould leave that to the discerning reader.

Really disappointed with the service,after waiting over one and a half hours on delivery it arrived stone cold Very disappointed and a waste of £20.00

I went here with my husband before heading to the cinema. we were extremely pleased with the service and food. we also bumped into friends there who also enjoyed their meal. a little bit pricey but was nice.

big restaurant, nice location but sadly staff not professional at all. disgusting food and service

it is an excellent restaurant, service 100 percent, food 100 percent. best of all

Best food and service

top class

when we went to las ramblas first time, we didn't expect it to be so nice, but to our surprise it is fabulous. service, food, decor is excellent. beyond compare.

Snap Scott, we too live in Cheshire now and always look forward to our meal at the Koh I Noor when we go home. We have tried other indian restaurants but the Koh I Noor is by far our favourite.

Fantastic food- fab service and great value!!

would not recommend . there with a party of 20 and were disappointed. being in the catering trade myself i found this restaurant was over booked not enough staff serving the tables and not pleased with menu . the starter Thai fish cakes being overcooked and the sauce served with steak cold also chips looked like what you would get in McDonald's . certainly will not be back!!!!
