Well I must text that so far this has been the best place for a truly THICK mango lassi & my plate 🍽️ was nice & hot 🔥 but my friend Janie's plate was cold - hence a point 👉 off. BUT our main courses came PIPING HOT 🔥🥵 SIZZLING AWAY - brilliant - will definately pop back in again.
Back in again on on Tue. 13/2/24 for lunch at 12.30pm & i got my meal on a hot 🔥 plate & once again it came sizzling hot 🔥My spicy chicken dosa was quite filling & i've never had it before & it tasted great 👍 it consisted of SHREADED tender chicken🐥 My main course was chicken masander & tender chicken once again & as u can see piping 🔥 & there was no steam rising from the not so hot meal that my friend & i had in Sanam Falkirk, that has won a few food awards. My desert was a slice of melt in your mouth gateau + a dollop of ice cream. So there u have it - tasty hot food & a lovely tall glass of thick mango lassi.
Back in again all the way from Grangemouth on 23/2/24 for lunch along with my 10% off lunch only discount card & enjoyed a lovely THICK lassie (which i tend to call a lassie by mistake) & with the arrival of a hot 🔥 plate 🍽️ i proceeded to pile on my SIZZLING chicken 🐥 masander & the spices in it tasted just great 👍
The restaurant was soon filling up, with some 5 folks being directed to a table & many others arriving - that's good to see. I phoned up for a table for two at 12.45 which was a good idea. So once again, give the India Cottage a try & judge for...
Read moreRecently went to the Indian Cottage on a Saturday afternoon with my wife for one of their fixed price menus. The restaurant was much busier than we expected and we were almost queuing out the door. However, we didn't have to wait long.
I was very impressed with the speed and efficiency that the very welcoming staff were able to turn their tables over and have them ready for the next customer - my only criticism of the waiting process is lack of space to wait - the restaurant is small and they have tried to maximise the space for customers to eat.
Our drink orders were taken as we were seated and arrived without any delay or error. There are 3 set lunch menus to choose from, ranging in price and products offered. My wife choose from Menu A whilst I choose from menu B. The quality offered on both menus was faultless and the standard of food served is as you would expect from an evening service a la carte menu.
As I mentioned earlier, the staff were very welcoming and efficient, offering replacement drinks when required without feeling they were hovering over you.
I would highly recommend the Indian Cottage to any curry lover and I would personally go back just for the Mango Ice cream - it was delicious.
As far as value for money, you won't find a cheaper service anywhere in Stirling offering food at such a...
Read moreThey call it an Indian restaurant and absolutely insult 'Indians'. In a couple of conversations with one of the owners by the name Pandey, he kept cribbing that Indians don't spend much and that they rather serve the locals as they spend more. I didn't take his comments too seriously, until a shocking incident happened. I called on a Saturday evening to place a delivery order. Since that man Pandey answered the call and said 'Indian Cottage, how many I help you', I spoke in Hindi to make him feel comfortable. But he started yelling (in Hindi): Don't call now, I'm very busy. Don't disturb us! I was shocked and told him: I am calling to place an order. And he replies: I don't want your order, I have enough customers here!!!
And he just hung up the phone on me! This fellow thought that since I'm an Indian, I won't spend much and he humiliated me on the call.
Any self respecting Indian should avoid...
