Read moreWent on Valentines day with my husband and we had a fab time. The restaurant is lovely. Its situated upstairs and is quote spacious. Decor is bang up to date with lovely comfy chairs. Service was excellent- staff couldn't do enough for us. Food was superb. Every course was faultless. The Valentines package deal was brilliant value. Everything was cooked fresh, looked visibly appealing and most importantly, tasted amazing. Would definitely visit again and would thoroughly recommend to anyone who loves Indian food.
UPDATE 14TH MARCH Another amazing meal in this great wee hidden gem in Muirhead. Had the spiced onions & popadoms then sharing platter starter with pakoras, samosa, bhaji - all lovely hot and fresh. Then Hubby had Chicken Rogan Josh and I had Lamb Lababdar. We had fried rice and a plain naan. The food was so good. The lamb was melt in the mouth and the sauce was thick, creamy and with a hint of spice. The Rogan Josh was creamy and mildly spicy with the chicken lovely and tender. The staff are attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. The setting is beautiful and prices are very reasonable. Definitely...
Read moreWe went here on Saturday night was so looking forward to our meal. My husband ordered spiced onions and poppadoms, lamb bhuna, I ordered chips and scampi as I don't eat Indian food. The spiced onions where too dry, the lamb bhuna and plain nan, was tasteless lacked flavour. My order was exactly what I ordered scampi and chips!!!!!! No dressing in a bowl nothing exciting to look at. I'm not complaining as I don't like salad but I've never had this served to me in this way. On the brighter side the scampi and chips was delicious. We informed the staff about the bhuna having no taste to it they had another portion sent out which was slightly better but not up to the standard we have had at other restaurants, also the nan was greezy another 1st for us. I'm afraid I wouldn't even give the Ashoka Muirhead any stars.But I have to give just 1. Such a disappointing meal, considering we have been to the Ashoka in kirkintilloch many times and NEVER been disappointed...
