    A great Pakistani restaurant serving Punjabi cuisine. The kabobs and desi style tikka masala were incredible along with the desert falooda

    Incredible Mediterranean! They get busy during the lunch rush, but they also serve you quickly…read more Food is delicious and portions are generous. My downfall was filling up on their incredible sundried tomato hummus and warm pita

One of the places she recommended was 'BABS, and after looking at the menu online we decided to try it. It turned out to be one of the best culinary experiences we've had. The place is not large, the ceilings are low and the noise level can be a little distracting. However, even though we didn't have reservations, we were quickly seated. When a larger table became available, we were offered that one instead. We had the sense that this was very much a family-run business and that they really love what they do. We were quite hungry, so we ordered the Mezze Platter for Two which was very reasonably priced at 22.5£/per person. For our four-dip starter we chose the Tzatziki, Sundried Tomato Hummus, Classic Hummus and Babaganoush which came with small pitas that were themselves spiced. All were delicious and we could have easily filled up on just these. Our main courses were chicken shish, chicken souvlaki, lamb shish and king prawns. All were extremely tasty. The platter also came with two side dishes and for these we chose the Basmati Rice and the Beef Doner Fries. The rice was an excellent complement to the main courses, but because by this time we were so full we ate the Beef topping but left the fries. We loved 'BABS so much that a couple of weeks later when we had a three-hour layover in Glasgow between trains, we went back to 'BABS for lunch. The return visit did not disappoint. We would wholeheartedly recommend 'BABS to anyone dining out in Glasgow. It's well worth it.

    Slightly garish inside and out, the New Pearl of India can give the impression of being the…read moreculinary equivalent of a pair of white jeans. However, behind the slightly crass exterior lurks a genuinely enjoyable Indian restaurant which my boyfriend (who lives nearby)raves about. What makes the Pearl of India so enjoyable is the way the staff makes you feel like a valuable regular, even if this is your first visit. The level of attention given to customers can be slightly overwhelming at times. After briefly hinting that he was thinking of going to the restaurant for Christmas dinner, my boyfriend's dad found himself harranged by three members of staff, a diary book and a selection of Christmas menus for a good twenty minutes, before having to ask them (politely) to leave him alone. Perhaps he should have expected it really - he was probably the only person to query having Christmas dinner here (what about turkey & all the trimmings?!) As far as the food goes, it has quite simply the one of the finest chicken pakora in Glasgow and that alone is worth the trip! Yum yum.

The food however, my god the food, the two of us that went ordered so much and really couldn't stop eating, we waddled out after I definitely will go back now that I know where it is
