Quick, friendly service with great tasting food. We ordered lots of dishes to try for our party of 6 and we enjoyed every dish. My favorite are the chicken tikka masala and the fish curry. Highly recommend when you're in Glasgow. read more

Mother India - Indian Near Me - Glasgow, GLG

This is a multi-story restaurant that can best be described as 'cosy.' Like many restaurants in the area, space is as a premium. We arrived at 6:30pm with no reservation and they offered us a small table in the bar. We accepted and another waiter came down and said they had a table for us upstairs. We ended up dining in the main dining room where every table was occupied. We started with Kingfisher beers. Since they had a reservation for another couple at 8pm, our waiter insisted that we order dinner immediately. We started with the crab prawn dosa as an appetizer. That was followed by a vegetable karahi and Delhi style lamb with an order of basmati rice and Pershwari naan. The food arrived in about 15 minutes and it looked and smelled great. We enjoyed all of the dishes, but especially the lamb. Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted great. We should have skipped the vegetarian dish because we had more than enough to eat with the other dishes. We would definitely recommend this restaurant if you want great, upscale Indian food. Please plan ahead and book a reservation. read more

We had a late lunch/early dinner and the ambiance was very nice. Candlelight, tablecloths, and attentive service. They don't rush you. We enjoyed a heaping plate of papadums and fish pakoras. You could tell the fish was fresh. My husband had monkfish which was perfectly prepared. I had chicken chops with smoked aubergine. It was wonderful! Perfect meal!! read more

I had one of the best Raan (leg of lamb) at an indian restaurant. And guess what , I could not find it in the US, i had to go all the way to Glasgow, Scotland to experience it. I ordered Raan, butter chicken, mutter paneer, black daal(daal makhani), raddish parantha. Every dish was just amazing. The size of the bread is pretty big and the dishes are topped with fried okhra (ladyfinger as they call it here.) The service was top notch and the ambience was great. I would highly recommend this restaurant read more

Ambiance - 5/5 Staff - 5/5 very sweet and friendly. Butter chicken - Amazing! Super rich and flavorful. Flavored rice - full of flavor lol Naan is huge. Both regular and peshawari. However, beware that the peshawari naan is as sweet as any dessert. They suggested I eat it with the curry but that's just not possible. Limited dishes in the menu though. read more

Ok Mother India is absolutely 100% a must if you come to Glasgow. It is an Indian staple like no other. And it NEVER disappoints. The is truly 5 star Indian food. The onion chutney alone is 5 stars. The mixed pickle is the best I've had. We order so many things it would take to long to go thru it all. But you seriously can't go wrong here. Everything and I mean everything is extremely delicious! read more

I have eaten Indian food all over the US and much of the UK. High end restaurants in NYC, Chicago, DC and SF. This was better than any of them. The butter chicken was amazing -- served on bone but fall of the one and incredible flavor. As good as that was the black daal was even better. Just unbelievable. Naans were an A- and the prices are high but the two amazing dishes made up for anything else. read more

Great food. Definitely one of the best in Glasgow. Good service & friendly staff. In a good area to with a few good pubs around.

I had a very good meal here in a large group. The food was excellent and the staff did a first-rate job of handling the large table.

10 out of 10. Amazing dishes, great atmosphere and wonderful service. Ordered the butter chicken and garlic naan bread. The flavors were immaculate. Would come here often if I lived closer. read more

Incredible, starting with a huge bowl of papadam.. Mushrooms and chick peas on toast Chicken tikka Raita Mango chutney Spiced onions Yummy! read more

Best Indian food I've ever had. No question. I'm from the subcontinent and know my food very well. The ambience is chic and the service was spectacular. The waiter made some suggestions and when we asked for what I would order to sample the best of this place, she suggested the "butter chicken". Boy was I glad she did. The butter chicken here is the best I've had. So good that I wanted to buy their cookbook and meet the chef (I did both). This is not the best Indian food in Glasgow but arguably some of the best Indian food in the UK. Don't miss this if you are in Scotland! read more

I came here after seeing this restaurant both in Lonely Planet and on the No Reservations episode in Scotland. The food is very good Indian food. I had the Papadom to start in addition to a masala chai, followed by the lamb mussalam and ladyfingers (=okra) with wholemeal & onion naan. The lamb was tender, but a little undersalted. Everything else was great. My friend ordered the Vegetable thali with black daal and sweet potato and chick peas. The meal was very filling - we probably could have split one dish instead of ordering two. We came in on a Wednesday night at 7pm without a reservation and were able to get a table right away, which is lucky since I heard this place is very popular. Overall, it is a good place to go if you are looking for good Indian food! read more

Delicious and incredible food. Best part is the ambiance upstairs - dark wood, candelabra and beautiful Scottish atmosphere. Totally recommend for visitors read more

I'd heard that like London, Indian food is to Glasgow as Pizza is to my city (NYC) and Burritos are to LA and..... I'd also heard that this city is in fact even low key superior to London when it comes to curry and also that the beloved Anglo staple of Chicken Tikka Masala was in fact created in this town. While I can't vouch for the last two claims, I can attest that my meal here was definitive proof of the first one, and that this is an exceptional place to discover these wonderful local food-ways. I arrived in Glasgow, tired. jet lagged and hung over from my previous night out in Edinburgh but am quite happy I pushed myself to force a proper dinner out upon arrival, and it turned out to be by far the most delicious and delightful one of my entire trip. Although we arrived just prior to 10:30 closing time the sky was still bright outside in miraculous Glasgow June. We were lucky enough to be whisked right away to our table in the amazing second floor dining room. Dripping in gorgeous dark wood and filled incredible period details, not the least of which were the incredible vintage light figures. In the bathroom theres one of those old toilets with the pull lever string from above like in The Godfather. The room was packed when we put our last call orders in, reflecting a panorama of Glaswegians all seemingly in the best of and imbibing the best of sprits, merrily inducing in the aromatic grub while bantering in the thickest of accents, the only thing thicker being the unmistakably pungently delicious smell of curry. The food, unlike much of what passes back home for South Asian cuisine, which somehow manages to be both spicy and bland. This is bursting with flavor, and not just fiery heat, which it certainly had in droves but also a complex web of other flavors like coriander, dilll, and a myriad of fresh herbs and veggies from the fertile Scottish Countryside mixed with he spices from the Sub Continent that have been consistently imported into this city and addicting its inhabitants for centuries due to the logistical workings of the once mighty Navel based British Empire and the Port City of Glasgow's special role in its trade with the Indian colony. The most fiery dish proved to be the cities claimed dish of Tikka Masala, which was absent from the apparently fancier restaurant, as opposed to "Carry out" menu, but the waitress was more than happy to oblige and serve it to me. It was glorious in addition to punishingly spicy with just a touch of relief from a light underpinning of cream. Not quite as mouth burning but nonetheless with plenty of kick, but perhaps even more delicious was an even creamier chicken curry dish called Murgh Mussalum, which befitting this spud obsessed nation was stuffed with delightful saffron mashed potatoes. Those portions of poultry proved humongous, which were accompanied by uniformly delicious sides, including a delightful vegetable basmati rice studded with a gardens worth medley of super fresh tasting veggies including spinach pease carrots and zucchini. Many of those same veggies also appeared in the paneer we ordered which was not the spinach forward and thick concoction we were accustomed to back home, but rather a much lighter, tomato based dish with the namesake cheese applied much more lightly. And of course, we had to order some of the wonderfully light and fluffy whole wear roti bread, which hardened up nicely to provide solid structures for the base of our delectable sandwiches which sustained us on a trek into the Scottish Highlands the next day. Great Indian food leftovers, like some Italian food imo, sometimes actually manages to improve upon sitting and congealing somewhat, and these sandwiches deliciously proved my theory. Whether or not that was worth the smell is a matter of debate between my carmates and the rental car company..... read more

Unparalleled. Absolutely excellent. Best Indian food I've ever had. I would go back again and again.

5 stars no doubt about it. All my English friends say this is the place to go when in Glasgow. They were absolutely right. Ambience is casual and dining is in basement feeling cozy with the brick walls and smell of kitchen nearby. Had the green chili fish pakora to start. Delightfully light batter with utmost in flavor profile. Side sauce was refreshing with hint of lemon and cream. Plenty of pieces to share for 2-3 people. Main entrees we tried were the classic butter chicken and mutter paneer with spinach. By far it's the best butter chicken sauce I've ever had. Thick and rich with just right amount of heat and multiple layers of flavor ending with the richness of butter. Not a drop of sauce left to go with the freshly made Nan which was light and the perfect carb to cheat with. 3 nice size pieces of chicken juicy and tender. The paneer was amazing. Peas, spinach and paneer with grilled tomatoes was mouthwatering. Again perfect level of heat and flavor. Didn't have room for dessert. Maybe next time as there will definitely be a next time Service top notch with friendly and prompt staff. read more

Now at last Saturday night and a table at Mother India restaurant. Had eaten in their Cafe last year (excellent) we were really looking forward to this And we were not disappointed. Great service, great meal..pakoras, chicken saag, a fantastic chilli chicken & garlic, aloo gobi, butter chicken, and a vegetable thali. Paratha and naan were good too. Add Kingfisher & Shiraz Everybody very happy with their meals. Good price at £107 for 4; very good value A must...but was it better than the cafe? - well you can at least book here - hmm a difficult question, which they also asked us! - can't say, both were very good and I'm not sure there's a major price difference... Perhaps a little more comfortable surroundings but that's not that important. One annoying thing is that if you are seated near the bar, there are all the food delivery companies coming in non-stop early on and boxes of food are being loaded from over the bar. There should be a better way Go to both and enjoy! read more

Oh my God. Oh sweet mother of Christ. This place. I cannot. I need a moment of silence in remembrance of this meal. Now that that's through, here's some tips to ensure you get a table at arguably the best Indian food I have EVER HAD: 1) make a reservation 2) don't sleep on the gin selection - did you know gin originated in India? 3) if you are intolerant of spice, don't even bother here. 4) make a reservation 5) you only need one naan, trust me. 6) make a reservation read more

How? How have I not reviewed Mother India before now? I love Mother India. I've eaten there many times and I've never had a bad experience. Mother India is about as close to perfection as a restaurant can get. Most recently I visited quite late on a midweek evening. Nevertheless, the customer service was fantastic with the waiters assuring us that it didn't matter at all but apologising that they were out of one of the dishes on the menu. Not that it mattered because everything on the menu is delicious. We ordered the smoked lamb curry, the slow cooked chicken curry, rice and Peshwari naan. Since we'd arrived late we skipped starters but honestly, the portions were so generous that that was probably a blessing in disguise. Everything was fragrant and perfectly spiced. I don't think I've ever had chicken so tender. This is far from the first excellent experience I've had. Whether it's a large group outing or a quiet, intimate dinner, Mother India has never disappointed. I can also recommend the take away menu which is a little cheaper but just as perfect. Try the pakora, try the butter chicken, try everything, if you can. read more

My family and I came to Glasgow from the United States earlier today, and we were all looking forward to this reservation. Mother India, I can confidently say, is the best Indian food that my family and I have ever had in a restaurant. Joseph, our server, did an excellent job at making sure we were well taken care of and that everything was perfect for myself and my family. If you are coming to Glasgow and like Indian food, Mother India is the place for you. read more

It saddens me to down grade a restaurant that l have given a 5* previously. I enjoy coming here and the food is always good and the service not the best but passable. On my last visit l came with my partner, we enjoyed our meal even though l felt our table was being ignored and more attention was made to the next table that had four females on. When l went to pay for the meal by card the chap at the counter gave me back the card machine to add a bigger tip for service, even though l had already left a tip on the table. Absolutely arrogant of staff to expect a tip for bad service or to even have the brass neck to ask for more money when a good tip had already been left. read more

Nice atmosphere, nice service, not so nice food. We walked in for a late lunch and ordered the set lunch menu. The appetizers were pretty good. The fried scallops were well seasoned with Indian spices. And the crepe had a really nice texture with tasty fillings. However, the main courses were disastrous. We got a chicken dish and a lamb dish with side orders of rice and nann. The nann was soaked in oil, made it a bit greasy, same as the two curry dishes. When I took a first bite of the chicken curry, I could even taste the iron from the pot, omg, it wasn't a pleasant taste! Overall, the food and the decor was slightly more upscale than the typical fast food Indian restaurant, but I wouldn't consider coming here again. Sorry read more

Mother India came highly recommended by a couple of friends who'd lived in the city, so craving a curry after an afternoon's pub visits, we booked a table for later that evening to avoid any disappointment. It was lucky we did as when we arrived the restaurant was teeming. Its reputation was completely upheld, as not only were we dining in seriously grand, elegant surroundings, everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. I mean, where else can you enjoy Butter Chicken (SO GOOD) whilst surrounded by Mackintosh furniture in a wood-panelled dining room with candlesticks?! Despite the relative swankiness, the atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable and the service was terrific - we were well taken care of from start to finish. The menu wasn't excessively long which was great to see, as a few dishes cooked very well is far better than loads of dishes done not so well. The mains range in price from £9 to £15.50. The undisputed Queen of curries in the city - highly recommended and one to return to when I go back. read more

We dared to venture into Mother India on a Saturday night without a booking, hoping to get a table for an early dinner. It was around 5pm, and provided we were out by 6.30 they were able to accommodate us - phew! I'd eaten here before and on this occasion, we were seated upstairs which is lovely and cosy and has a real homely feel. We were tucked away in the corner at a candlelight table which meant we were able to chill out and chat away without being disturbed. We'd had some tapas earlier so weren't looking for a huge meal - I ordered the ginger crab and prawn dosa to start, and the black daal from the specials as my main. The waiter was great, giving us guidance about ordering too much naan (he was right, we didn't need two between us!) and the food arrived quickly. The delicious ginger crab and prawn dosa was the perfect starter to the meal, it is such a tasty dish and really shows why Mother India has a wonderful reputation. It's a delicate, light dish which packs a punch with flavour all wrapped up in the lentil rice pancake. The black daal - simply described as black daal with butter and cream on the menu was presented in a lidded dish to keep it warm. Even though it was simple, it was so rich and delectable that I didn't really want to share it. I couldn't eat the whole portion and they happily wrapped up my leftovers so I could have it for lunch the next day (there was no way I was letting it go to waste!). I also tried some of Graeme's chicken tikka which had a lovely charcoal flavour. For a meal for two with a beer and soft drink, the bill came to £40 which we thought was very reasonable. I love eating at Mother India as the staff are so warm and welcoming, and the food is always interesting, innovative and packed with flavour. read more

We greatly enjoyed our meal here with family. We had a large table which the staff handled with ease. Food was fantastic. Popadums were delicious. We shared lamb, chicken and fish dishes, which were all great. We had a couple of toddlers with us which the staff accommodated too. Spice level is medium, not mild, so be aware. read more

Wonderful. We went here our first evening in Glasgow, and it was amazing. We ordered a starter, two mains, rice and naan. All were amazing but too much food for the two of us. Two mains would have been perfect. Definitely make reservations and enjoy the exceptional food and wonderful atmosphere. read more

Mother India - Lamb, sea bass, and basmati...mmmmm! - Indian Near Me - Glasgow, GLG

Mother India is my go-to Indian restaurant for a bit of a splurge! (It's not hugely more expensive - starters are around £7 and mains around £13 - but it all adds up) It is worth it though! Went for dinner on Christmas Eve and had the festive menu. To start, I chose the aloo saag dosa - potatoes and spinach wrapped in a crisp rice and lentil pancake - and ohhhh myyyyy what a dish! The combination of flavours and the pancake texture was so delicious I contemplated cancelling my main dish and just asking them to bring me more dosas... My dining companions agreed that this dish was indeed a winner, with my friend telling the waiter and then the chef that it was the best thing she'd ever tasted! For my main I had the vegetarian thali - a choice of two veggie dishes from the menu (I chose the tarka dal and a cauliflower and broccoli dish) with boiled rice and chapati. At Mother India the dal is chunky, has bite and tastes lovely. The tenderstem broccoli and cauliflower was simply cooked with some fresh and fragrant spices. Pay Mother India a visit if you're looking for a classy curry! read more

Mother India - Indian Near Me - Glasgow, GLG

In the last ten or so years, the Mother India phenomenon has taken Glasgow by storm. Now with other branches such as the 'Mother India Cafe' and 'Dining in with Mother India' - the original Mother India restaurant is where it all started. Unlike the Mother India Cafe, you won't find any tapas dishes here. Instead, you'll find rich and tasty traditional Indian fare, with an emphasis on fresh food and good quality ingredients. The staff are really friendly, the decor is stylish and the food is so delicious I'd probably sell my soul for a season ticket. Yes, do believe the hype; it is that good! Although a little pricey, the portions are very generous and each curry dish could probably feed a family of four (not that you'll want to share...). You can also bring your own bottle, though their own wine list is pretty snazzy. In fact, the only bad thing I can think of about this place is the fact that they felt the need to play a tinny elevator music style version of George Michael's greatest hits on Valentine's Day. But, to be honest, when the food is this good - who cares?! read more

If ever I'm offered a last meal, you best believe I'll be on the phone to Mother India! One of my weaknesses is for Paneer and I've never had better than what is on offer here. We still talk of the one time I was presented with such a perfect saag Paneer that I was the subject of such jealousy for the duration of our night. Needless to say we come here quite often. As my brother was leaving the day after, we decided to have a last meal together in one of our old fav's. We started off with an order of veggie pakora, which were lightly crisped, not too dense & fragrant. It's a good thing that they came quite quickly as we were all hungry. My mum and I both ordered buffalo Paneer with peas and broccoli, which was served in a tomato sauce. My brother went for his favourite prawn and monkfish curry. We chose a couple garlic nans and a side of aloo saag. All of it was superb, which is the one word I would use to describe Mother India. In my all my years, I've not found a restaurant as consistently good as this place. If asked to make a restaurant recommendation, hands down I would tell anyone to come here, strap on a feedbag & get ready for an essential Glasgow experience! read more

I've been here a few times, and I can safely say it's my favourite Indian. It is a bit pricey, but it's definitely worth it. The food is incredible, and the portions very generous! They always have a big selection of veggie dishes as well as meat dishes. The service is great as well. Everyone I've been served by there has been really lovely and you always get your meals quickly. The atmosphere is also wonderful. Downstairs in the cellar is a bit more casual, but very cosy and nice. Upstairs is a beautiful room, all in warm dark wood. It's a bit more fancy, but the atmosphere is still quite relaxed. While it isn't the cheapest place, it's a great place for special occasions, and the whole experience is definitely worth what you pay. read more

I couldn't believe my eyes when I searched for Mother India on Yelp and it had not been reviewed before! A serious instituion in the Glasgow dining out scene, Mother India has been satisfying palates and bellys since 1993. Mother India is split into three levels; up stairs is the more formal dining area complete with stunning wood finishings and soothing lighting. This section is by far my favorite of the lot! The ground floor is a much more social scene, jog in, scoff the best curry of your life and a few pints, then jog on. The only thing about the ground floor is that mother india also operate a takeaway from this level and it can get quite busy with people just...well...hanging about. The basement caters for large parties and as an overspill for the upstaris seating areas. It makes for a nice change and is small and cozy. The food in here is on another level! Last time I was here I had the Fish Pakora to start and it was amazing. With a hint of ginger and a nip of chilli it was washed down nicely with a cold pint of Kingfisher. I would also recommend the Prawn Dosa - the differing textures and tastes offered by this dish are simple and beautiful. For my main I always go for the Chicken Saag - chicken cooked in spinach. Doesn't sound great does it? But one mouthful in you'll find it to be the most moreish dish you could have ordered! If you want to sit for a few hours, try the leg of slow cooked lamb. The table across from us ordered it and for two people to share at 25 pounds seems very reasonable. A Keema Naan works well to mop up the rest of your curry! The wine selection in here is very good, however they do allowed customers to bring their own and corkage for a 750ml bottle of wine is only 1.75pounds which is also how much they charge for the corkage on a four pack of beers! Whether meeting your parents in Glasgow, heading out with your other half, or just treating yourself to a top notch curry, make Mother India the next place you visit! read more

Anthony Bourdain wasn't kidding - this place is INCREDIBLE. We made a reservation for Mother India the night before and got a reservation for 7:30pm on a Thursday - we arrived an hour early and got seated, no problem, which was great! We started with a mango lassi (4GBP) which was creamy, slightly savory, and amazingly mango-y. We then ordered the crab and prawn dosa which was so crispy, buttery, and seafoody, and served alongside a great curry-flavored dip. For entrees, we got the lamb with okra and the slow-cooked chicken curry, with a side of radish paratha and basmati. Everything was beautifully spicy, flavorful, and perfectly tender. All told, our bill was 46 GBP after tip. Come here if you can get in! read more

Truly world-class Indian food, served by an attentive wait staff in a cozy, charming, and romantic atmosphere. We showed up just before 6 pm on a Saturday without a reservation and the hostess found a spot for us in the wine cellar dining area, through 7:30 pm. Fortunate timing, as reservations appear to be the norm. My wife had king prawns with monk fish and basmati rice and I had Lamb Rogan Josh with naan. We shared a fish pakora appetizer, mango chutney, and a bottle of One Chain "The Wrong Un" Australian Shiraz Cabernet red wine. The naan was so large that we could have done well without rice at all. I would say this was the best Indian dinner I've ever enjoyed, and would definitely return to this or any other locations that share their standards and culinary heritage. read more

Taking some star off as i feel they are too over confident. Saw downstairs that they received a culinary award recently. We went there for dinner and we ordered pops and dips, spinach dosa, vegetarian thali. We complained about the gravy with spinach dosa being too salty but they dint do anything about it. As a high end restaurant isn't it expected for them to replace it. We were really surprised. Also ppl keep coming and asking us whether we are done although they could see more than half the food remained in our plates and we were taking a break from eating and just talking. We have come out to spend some time with good food try to understand this! read more

We sure got lucky! My husband and I did exactly what I don't recommend - and that's just show up without a reservation. But it worked! In fact, this restaurant was able to turn tables so fast that even though there was nearly always a line out the door during the time we were here, the queue moved fast and people didn't wait more than 20 mins tops for a table. I didn't see the entirety of the place but it seems quite large. I saw wait staff running up stairs, downstairs, and through a back door. Seems like only 20 people are eating when maybe it's closer to 3x that amount. Having eaten lots of Indian food in my life, I was excited to try what I'd always heard was Scotland's absolute best. And it was great! We asked for a little more spice and they delivered. We got some really hot dishes and a few other mild ones. Portions are large and prices are just right. We loved the dosa dish the most but everything was tasty. For just two people we did over order a bit and the leftovers were enough for us to eat another 2 meals apiece! Which was good because we ate back at our hotel room after a few drinks and then again in the AM before heading out the door. Pigs, I know! My only struggle with not finding this place perfect was when it came time to pay and leave. We had excellent service all through dinner and then when we were finished it took about 30 mins to find someone's attention and ask for the bill. We were eager to head out on the town and find a few bars. Being that we were only in town for one night this waiting and waiting put a crimp in our plans and we ended up just making one stop instead of two. Still a lovely experience though. read more

Yes Yes Yes - now I know what all the hype is about. I was in Glasgow for a couple of days and kept hearing people talk about how good Mother India was - and being a massive fan of Indian food, I was delighted to be taken here by the fountain of foodie knowledge that is Briony C! Having lived in India for 6 months, eating curry for lunch and dinner pretty much every day, I had some great experiences but non as formal as this place, but it really suited it well. The breads were spot on, the curry very pleasant and the prawn dosa to start was something that I'd quite happily eat each and every day. I'll be back again when next in town - maybe even looking to up it to 5 stars (which takes a lot when it comes to me reviewing Indian joints due to my love of their food - I want to try more of MI's menu...) read more

Forget football stadiums or Cathedrals. What really defines a Great City? I believe it is their curry houses. Amongst the great cities of Britain there arises an Indian Restaurant that sets the bar amongst which all off others are compared. Bradford has Mumtaz, while in Manchester it is Moon. The place that defines Glasgow Curries is Mother India. It has set the bar for Indian food in Glasgow. This is not like other Indian restaurants in Glasgow which have used gimmicks to entice the masses. You will not find a buffet or a ballpit within this place. This is all about stunning wooden interiors and classical dishes served out with respect for the places that they come from. I have always loved fish curries. Mumtaz's Goan Haddock was what first introduced me to this type of dish. Mother India have taken that another level. The Haddock and Halibut are astoundingly good. And the Butter Chicken - knockout punch - hands raised - walk away. read more

Not eaten here for ages but it never fails to deliver. Popped in last night and managed to get a table for two after only a few minutes (if you've never been, it's deceptively large with seating up and down stairs from the entrance. My partner and I shared the Chicken and Mushroom Pakora to start, wonderfully light and dry, it was delicious and a much different fare from what I've been served in other places. It's made fresh and you can tell the difference, impressively it didn't take long to appear either (despite the caution on the menu). For the main courses, we picked the Turnip and Potato dish on the Specials menu as a side, alongwith a wholemeal Roti and a Peshwari Naan. I order the Butterfly Chicken, and Kirsty ordered the Smeena's Slow Chicken Curry. As with the starters, the main courses were out promptly and ohhhh my heavenly taste buds were they good. The Butterfly Chicken is served in a wide dish, a delicious, thick sauce slathered over two chunks of succulent breast and a leg. The meat was so tender it feel apart almost before the fork got to it! The Slow Chicken Curry was served in chunks with a nice tang to the sauce, and the Turnip and Potato curry provided a nice punchy balance across it all. Add in a pint of Kingfisher and a vodka and coke, and we left with full bellies, warm hearts and the knowledge of a decision well made! If you like curry served by a professional team who were always smiling and attentive when needed (but not overly so), cooked by some of the best curry chefs in the city, then stop in... ohhh but you might need to book, Mother India is popular for very good reasons! read more

Very good food. Naan was incredible. Place can be very busy so recommend a reservation. We were told that we had our table from 6 to 7:45. We only ordered dinner entrees, so that gave us plenty of time. We were given a small appetizer that was potatoes and chickpeas which was yummy. Dishes can take time to prepare so don't recommend if looking for a quick bite. Had the chicken tikka and the chili garlic chicken. Still unsure about what would have happened if we used up all our time though. read more
