The Alishan Tandoori - Glasgow City

Never fails to deliver, after almost forty years of coming to this institution on the south side of Glasgow yet again we get the best Indian food and a warm welcome akin to being one of the family. Chico welcomes everyone personally and is the perfect host, and his team ensured that we received the highest level of service. The mixed platter starter was delicious, and our main courses were full of flavour and cooked to perfection. Including drinks we had change out of £50 which for the quality and flavour is hard to beat. Always has been and ever will be my favourite Indian restaurant.

Well i thought i would try out this place for a takeaway before i would go and get a meal there sitting in. I ordered chicken curry, fried rice and nan bread. The chicken was breast and it came in a whole piece, not chopped which was fine but it was a bit tough. The curry was only warm, the rice was yellow basmati and didn’t work for fried- it was also cool. The nan bread was cold. I only live one street away so it should have been fine. I wont be going back. The picture i have included only shows half the rice. I did not finish the meal, it ended up in the bin. It was expensive for what it was as well.

Not been here since the 90s. In the locale. Chicken Madras. I’d say simply the best Madras sauce I’ve had. And a huge succulent Chicken breast. 10/10.

Used to stay around the corner, so we have been going to the Alishan for 30+ years. Always a good night, with excellent food and friendly service. See you again soon.

We arrived promptly at 1450 for the 3 pm sitting only to be standing outside in the rain for 10 mins. This appeared to be because a number of people were waiting for their Carry outs and the vestibule is small . The food was good although two grumpy overstretched harassed waiters dealt with us. A lady was doing the drinks. The wait between courses was awful. Our grandchildren got a slice of turkey, some salad and a mountain of chips. For £17 ! Because of the long wait between courses the dessert wasn’t really offered unless you were really quick to ask. . I managed to get a coffee which was included in the price but only as I was quick as it was 1750 and next sitting was 6 pm. We came last year and it was so good. I felt they were understaffed and a bit greedy doing carry outs at the same time as serving us. The staff were obviously stretched , showing in there lack of enthusiasm. It was Christmas Day ! . We came last year as it was so good. Never again. I would not recommend Christmas dinner here ever. Total disappointment.
