    At first glance this place looks excellent, you go in and its nicely laid out, there's a big queue…read morefor take-away and your shown to your seats... and this is where the service stops. My fiancée, my parents and myself went to visit for dinner. During our visit we were served by no less than 9 different servers (yes we were counting, it turned into a game). We ordered 4 starters Channa Poori (no taste), Garlic chicken tikka (burnt), prawn cocktail (suace was very watered down) and fish pakora (it was nice, but was battered fish, and not fish pakora). Finished starters the server number 3 came along with the next courses of food, and instead of removing the dirty plates just put the next set of plates on top of it! And when my partner asked for a clean fork a utter look of confusion surrounded the face of the server. We ordered chansi (a normally sweet/sour dish, but just tasted like a bowl of BBQ Sauce from McDonalds), a Tandoori chicken (that was pretty fantastic surprisingly) a Balti and a Sonya (both had a 5mm layer of oil at the top of the dish). During eating dinner we witnessed 2 people send their dishes back and also heard the best comment I've heard in a Indian restaurant "Why is there bones in my vegetable Pakora" I really hope this was just an off night for them and their service is normally better, but I'm afraid I won't be going back to find out.

    We visited the Taj on recommendation from a few friends, we decided to try the buffet (instead of…read moresticking to the old favs of Korma and tikka lol!). Very traditional Indian decor inside - with a very large seated area at the back of the restaurant. I was a bit disappointed at the variety of foods at the buffet, considering the price of it. Im sure it was £10,95 per person - which is average for an Indian buffet - but more expensive than a chinese buffet. However the service and quality of food was excellent. I would try the buffet again to see if it was any better, or possibly try a carry out.

    Balbirs Route 77

    Update/Edit: August 2015 Balbirs Route A77 renamed "Mac's Spice Route". Mac, who has run the…read morerestaurant for Balbirs for many years, has just taken over the business himself. Same team and hopefully same excellent restaurant and great menu! Arrive hungry and choose the banquet! Just like its hugely popular sibling Balbirs in Glasgow West End they serve the banquet to your table. Everyone raves about their tandoori salmon, though I stick to their vegetarian options. Its a smart joint serving excellent modern Indian cuisine. Keep your eyes peeled for signposts on A77. Since the new Symington flyover the access to Balbirs has changed a little to make it safer and easier. Who would have thought an unspectacular 'box' that was once home to a Little Chef could be so lovely inside!

    We've been eating at this Balbir's since it opened in the Halfway Hotel across the dual carriageway…read moreyears ago, then when it moved to Ayr, then to its present location, en ex_little Chef. Overhauld (practically rebuilt) withmuch more room & lots of parking at the rear, this is probably the only restaurant I have regularly eaten in at least 4 times a month. Service is excellent, with the boss Michael & waiters providing an efficient and friendly, but never intrusive service, and quality and taste of food just outstanding! I have eaten in the other variants of Balbirs, in Church St in Glasgow's West End, at Shawlands, at Charing Cross, but though very good, they don't really come up to Balbir's at Route 77 standard in terms of outright taste and quality. Much of this is down to the chef's interpretation of a dish, for example try a lamb saag here & then compare elsewhere & you'll see the difference. Similarly the lamb methi and chicken tikka achari or pan fried lamb fillet interpretations are unbeatable. For something really different, order the salmon pakora, and you'll be back here for more. We've eaten in Asian restaurants around the world : some good,some very good and some I'd rather forget about & am happy to see that in the last 10 years or so the number of really good Asian restaurants in Glasgow & West of Scotland in particular (sorry : don't know about Edinburgh) has increased enormously.However judged on the sheer flavours which burst in your mouth, irrespective of which dish you've ordered, this retaurant comes right at the top. Theres no doubt if I was to be asked what my one favourite restaurant is, this has to be it. Price : extremely reasonable considering the high quality and a bit less than what you'd pay in central Glasgow. Just about forgot they do carry outs to the same high standard. The only slight downside is the slightly remote location which realistically means it can only be accessed by car (I suppose the up side is it doesn't get invaded by over excited people from the local pubs around closing time) and if heading back to Kilmarnock / Glasgow you have to head towards Prestwick first before turning since it's a dual carriageway. A trivial price to pay though. All in All I would have no hesitation in recommending this Balbir's to any discerning curry lover & have no hesitation in awarding it five stars.

    Served Sunday Banquet - 3 courses plus popadoms, chutneys and drink: £9…read more Partaking in lunch: me (the vegetarian) and himself (the carnivore) A contemporary restaurant with classy modern decor, Ayr India served us top notch food packed full of flavour and very much lived up to it's excellent reputation. The Sunday Banquet menu looked like such amazing value it would have been pretty daft to order from the a la carte. I love the element of mystery when opting for a served banquet. You're never entirely sure what will come to the table - the waiter asks whether you prefer your food hot, medium or mild and then checks your dietary/meaty preferences before bringing a colourful array of dishes to the table. We figured the chances of enjoying our meal were pretty high, and we weren't wrong! One stunning dish after another made its way to our table. Popadoms were up first accompanied by four different dips/chutneys: sweet honey mango, spiced onions, minted yoghurt and chili spiced. All very different. All delicious. They were quickly followed by one of my favourite Indian appetisers; chana dhal on light-as-a-feather crisp poori. For starters, himself had chicken wings and chicken pakora, while I had a selection of vegetable pakora which included cauliflower just the right side of al dente, and clearly freshly cooked to order. Rice, Indian bread and a couple of main course dishes each brought a knowing smile to our faces. We knew it would be a struggle to finish all this lovely looking food, but we were going to give it a jolly good try. Stuffed, happy, and barely able to move, we paid our very modest bill and went for a much needed walk. Don't think I'll be needing anything to eat for a few days. The restaurant serves the Sunday Banquet from 12.30 til 4pm and though it was very quiet when we arrived, it was almost full when we left, so might be worth booking a table, says she who never books a table, and always takes a chance! NB. They are pretty switched on about special dietary requirements and are vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free friendly. Just be sure to mention when ordering.

    SImply amazing! Really good. Table was ready when we arrived…read moreeven although place was buzzing. Not the usual menu choices but plenty choice and variety. Food was beautiful, service was great and we can't fault in any way.
