Eastern Eye — Restaurant in Scotland

We decided to go to Eastern Eye for my stepdad's birthday. As soon as we arrived, we realized that we were getting ignored by the waiting staff. It took nearly 30 minutes for our orders to be taken. Once the orders were eventually taken, we then waited for over an hour until the starters arrived. There was no explanation why it was taking so long. We were just getting ignored and were not even offered any drinks while we waited. The vegetarian starters were mixed with the meat starters. Once we finished our starters, it took over an hour for the main course to arrive and still, no drinks taken and no explanation for the wait. It was not even worth waiting for as it was all watery and not even that tasty. Towards the end of our meal, a different, very young waiter appeared who was really friendly and attentive, but it was too late to save my stepdad's birthday. I hope this young gentleman will find...

This has to be one of Scotlands best Indian Restaurants.

Amazing food, with friendly staff that are very helpful at explaining each dish and it origins. The restaurant specialises in Bangladesh Cuisine, but many other dishes are available from their very comprehensive menu.

We were met and greeted by the owner, Ali, who made us feel very welcome, showing us to a comfortable table. Menus and drinks were delivered promptly while one of the waiters helped with explanations on the dishes we chose.

Both courses arrived with perfect timing. We chose Bengali Shish Kebab and Meat Samosa as starters, followed by South Indian Chicken, and Naga Lamb for the main. Instead of a plain rice dish, we ordered Prawn Biriani. All of the food was simply sublime.

I would definitely recommend visiting. A...

Not a bad restaurant but I've had much better Indians in Scotland that's for sure.

As a lot of people have commented the service definitely needs some work, not overly friendly... Hardly any dialogue and didn't even say bye when we left ...!

The food was ok , spiced nicely and a fair amount of flavour however one of my pet hates ... Don't bring out 2 people's rice in one pot, it's not hard to have 2 separate dishes with our own rice in as 99 % of restaurants I go to manage to do it.

The chicken didn't feel very fresh, a bit squidgy in places and some of the potatoes in the Bombay aloos were also hard and not very spicy I'll add.

The rest however was nice like our keema naan, chips and mushroom rice .

Not a bad restaurant but not in a hurry...
