My first time here was in the summer. Had such a delightful time and I’ve been back many times since! Iv brought family and friends to the Ashoka Southside in the months since too and all have been very impressed. The food is delicious, plentiful and very reasonably priced. The staff are so friendly and attentive and the restaurant itself has a lovely welcoming vibe. The food really is wonderful, the platters are amazing and the fish pakora and lamb chops are to die for! Well done to all the team at Ashoka Southside! 👍

Oh dear. We've been 3 times now and won't go back. The tandoori food is good. The curries are all bland and not even a hint of heat! The base for their sauces is coconut milk and is claggy and oily. Put me right off. Tasting oil over food is a big no no. Every dish tastes the same no matter what it's called. Please serve some vegetables with a curry and improve it. Lamb curry is about 5 chunks of meat. Where were the onions, some veg or anything... just claggy coconut milk. Not nice. The naan bread was nice though. Staff are nice but sorry food is just not authentic.

I visited the Ashoka a few weeks ago and was really impressed. It's lovely inside and the staff were very attentive and friendly. We had lamb chops, tandoori prawns, meat feast platter and curries to share. The food was absolutely delicious, and the curry in particular is the best I have had in a long time - cooked by wonderful chef Afsal, thank you Afsal! I will definitely be back :)

First off, everything was cold. The chicken was rock solid, cooked to oblivion. The prawns were supposed to be fried in breadcrumbs but looked like they’d been regurgitated by an old cow. Ordered butter chicken for my kid and didn’t feel comfortable giving it to her due to the quality of the food we ordered for ourselves. Everything looked and tasted like it had been sitting under hot lights for 3 days. The staff have been really rude on previous occasions and I genuinely can’t remember a time when I had a good experience here - maybe 4 years ago. Just do yourself a favour and don’t order from here.

After getting a number of takeaways from the Ashoka Southside we decided to pay a visit on Sunday, late afternoon. The food was absolutely perfect, and everything is clearly marked for vegan friendliness, which was a bonus. Definitely the best curries in the southside - well worth a visit. We'll be back!

Over priced dinner with an attitude. I phoned in my order the guy asked me if could wait a min or two as both computers were being used he then came back talking to me at 200 miles per hour I hardly understood a word I gave him my order 2 very very small starters (4 pieces of veg pakora £4.75 & the exact same with chicken pakora) & I asked for chicken tikka South Indian garlic chilli and received chicken breast my mrs got lohori grilled salmon I also asked for a garlic & cheese Nan I received a soggy doughy garlic nan with no cheese. I went to pick it up the guy said it was £70 something pounds so I said I think there is something wrong there that’s a bit much he ran through my order & he had gave me 3 lohori grilled salmon I said I only asked for 1 no you asked for 3 he said I told him I can guarantee him I asked for 1 no he said my wife was on the phone to me at the same time as I was taking your order & even she remember he said. Now I ask how can you even be listening properly when you are talking to someone else at the same time as taking my order but somehow it was my fault. So then he said we’ll have made 3 now & I said I didn’t want 3 I want 1 he then gave me a bit of attitude told me to sit down will they fixed my order 3 min later said there is your stuff & changed me £44.10 for nothing more than overpriced below average food…As a reply to your Answer and excuses can I ask how can your wife have heard my order as you claim if she was on Bluetooth and on hold .

We ordered chana poori starter, saag paneer side portion and chicken tikka main meal. All the dishes arrived at the same time on request so we could share. Every bite of the meal was a delight. Enjoyed it all thoroughly. The chefs Veer and Raj are culinary wizards. Can’t fault a thing. The serving staff Farah and Sumi were both attentive and charming. We’ll be back. Oh n the vegan brownie was very good, not too sweet. Perfect ending to Friday night dine out! Thanks Ashoka Southside

My starter was delicious, a prawn poori, but the rest of the meal was bang average. My main dish was meant to be chicken tikka option of a jaipuri but it was plain chicken, not tikka, and the flavour of the dish was very plain. The peshwari naan was like cardboard - water thin and bland. All in aside from the starter I would have been better going to Morrisons for a more flavoursome meal. Sad and disappointed.

Food was great but my experience was really made by a phoneomonal server Farah. She was so friendly and nice! She was also hilarious, I was crying with laughter at her jokes. Almost couldn't eat my food cause I was laughing so much! But luckily I could cause it was delicious. She was also super nice to my kids, they normally struggle eating out as they are so young but they felt very comfortable. My wife also has social anxiety and finds it awkward to eat at restaurants but because Farah made her feel so relaxed she has now overcome this fear and her therapist and I are both so proud of her! We tried to leave her a big tip but she said there are others who need it more so we should donate to them through charity instead. What an experience!

Really disappointed with our order as we enjoyed the Ashoka in the past as top restaurant quality food, tonight not too good, firstly the poppadoms were missing from our order which means the spiced onions we ordered to go with them were redundant, we ordered a cheese naan, but instead we got a plain naan bread, on the positive side the fish pakora and chicken starter were both nice although small portions compared to others, also small chewy king prawns in starter and main course(sm

I usually love Ashoka Southside - we’ve been to sit in a couple of times and have always had a great experience. First time ordering takeaway and the curries were very disappointing (again, we’ve had these before and they’ve been great!). Muttur Paneer and a Chicken Karahi that were both cold and tasted more or less exactly the same… way too creamy and no flavour at all. Veg pakora was nice though, and speedy delivery time.

Went yesterday with my son and partner waitress was so lovely and welcoming popadoms and pakora were great but that’s all I can compliment. I ordered the chicken Chasni and o can only describe this sauce as as being similar in taste to a cheap jar of tomato pasta sauce and it was all lukewarm I managed two bites and knew I would t be able to finish. I had felt awful as the waitress had been so nice so rather than speak up (stupid I know) I called another waiter over and asked if my son and I could take the rest of ours to go. I was questioned and asked why and what is wrong with the food which in my opinion is so unprofessional I kindly explained I was just not as hungry at that pinot and wanted to take it home. He slouched off leaving the plates came back and just tossed plastic tubs on the table for me to do myself. I have done this many times usually because the food is actually lovely and I do t want to waste it and never have I been expected to pack it up myself i was mortified and so embarrassed. The next ten minutes while waiting to pay(after asking three times for the bill) were followed with glares from both the waiter who came over the second time and one of the chefs staring myself and family down until we could eventually pay and leave. After 1 hour I promptly threw up everywhere safe to say we will never return

Ashoka south side. Where to start. Booked initially for Christmas Day where was promised a glass of fizz on arrival. Upon arrival you were offered a mocktail. Only once I had questioned this and thankfully had my own copy of the menu, was this granted. 2 weeks before Christmas Day we were requested to pay in full for our meal. Understandable, but why was I asked to pay in full in cash? When I said I only had card, I was told the cash machine was just up the road. Seen other people pay by card, so don’t know what this request was all about … On Christmas Day we were sat at the seat beside the window. Food was enjoyable and would have recommended only for the fact they had over booked and took my dads seat away. We were left sitting like 3 wee crows sitting in a wall all squashed on the couch at the wall at our Christmas Day dinner. Staff were pleasant and we were understanding about the situation. The food is nice in the Ashoka, but usually luke warm. On Christmas Day I had to ask for my chicken to be reheated. Nothing comes to your table piping hot we have found on our multiple visits. As a thank you, we received a voucher for £10 off our next meal in the Ashoka. As January is a gloomy month, we thought we would take up the offer and go for a nice meal. Please see picture of voucher attached for reference. On the voucher it states that there must be a MINIMUM of 2 people to use this offer. Your staff member seemed rather confused, and stated that it could only be used for a MAXIMUM of 2 people. Also we ordered from the pre theatre menu. When we first arrived there was no mention of the pre theatre making this voucher void and this was only discovered when we went to pay. Your staff member went on to say that there was t and c’s to go with this voucher as stated on it, but upon request to view these, there was none. She said there was no t and c’s and that she would bear in mind and put this exemption on the voucher next time. It seems like the t and c’s are just made up as the day goes on. Our bill came to £87 so with the voucher it would have been £77, which is still a considerable amount. We usually leave a tip of at least £10 so therefore it actually woukd have been given back given the chance. I’m in the fortunate position where I have studied International Business Law and can herby conclude that this is breaking the law as you have failed to clearly state the t and c’s of this voucher. Your staff member stayed persistent that we were not to get the discount, therefore I shall not return to your restaurant. The food is nice, but not something that I couldn’t find elsewhere. I’d prefer to find somewhere that values my customer loyalty which from my experience in here, you don’t. A shame as this is a local restaurant and we had high hopes for it. Good food and within walking distance so what’s not to like but what’s stated above.

I’d prefer to find somewhere that values my customer loyalty which from my experience in here, you don’t. A shame as this is a local restaurant and we had high hopes for it. Good food and within walking distance so what’s not to like but what’s stated above.

Good morning as ok was not ethnic, poori’s were excellent very tasty but chicken tikka starter was not fresh like rubber, garlic chilli chicken under flavoured very disappointing for Ashoka. Peshwari naan had hardly any filling. Overall 4/10

A little gem of a restaurant. Food was authentic and delicious. 4 of us had 14 tasting dishes comprising of 6 starters, 4 mains and 4 sides. There was something for everyone. Great value for money. Momina our server was really sweet and efficient, as were the rest of the team.

Quite simply the best Pakora in Scotland. The slight difference in heat between the sauce (pink/red) is mind-blowingly good. Best spiced onions ever. A must, if you ever visit Glasgow. Always served with a smile. Love it!

Small authentic Indian restaurant. Quick service and friendly servers. Expensive alcohol at £5.90 a pint. Vegetable pakora was fresh as was the Tarka Daal. Chicken Tikka was sizzling, rice plentiful and naan cooked as it should be. Restaurant was extremely warm.

Please don't waste your time dining here, much better places. Visited tonight with my grand daughter (who is a child). I ordered 2 x 2 course meals to share between 3 of us, as the child would NEVER eat a full curry. The very rude waitress barged over to us and said you cant order 2 meals between 3 people. She said you need to order a kids meal separately . I was mortified, it wasn't about money but simply would have been a waste of food and money. The child ordered macaroni, which looked and tasted like soup. When we paid our bill I asked "is that macaroni out of a packet" she dropped her head and proceeded to serve the next person. No answer or acknowledgement to was question was given. Extremely extremely rude!! I will never eat in this place ever again. Total rip off, staff most certainly need a course in customer relations.

Looks slightly uninspiring from the outside but fabulous atmosphere inside and excellent food. Staff extremely friendly and happy to take time out to have a chat. The menu is very extensive but that doesn’t detract from the quality of their food which was extremely well presented and tasty. Be prepared to take a ‘doggy bag’ home as the portions are large. All in all a fabulous night out with great food, great atmosphere and great staff. Highly recommended.

Ashoka South Side is a great place if you are craving for some nice Indian food. The curries have a lot of flavour and are not mellowed down - we tried the lamb as well as chicken both were equally delicious. In the bread section we had Garlic chapati which was nice too. They also have a kids menu which helped us. I would advise making a reservation as the place is quite popular and can get busy. There was Bollywood music playing in the background which added to the ambience. Would definitely recommend it.

We ordered just after 5pm and delivery was quick.. but the pakora was not nice .. it tasted and looked like reheat! The curry was just ok.. it is years since we last used the Ashoka but sadly I think it might be years again.. it seems so difficult to get everything right ?

Absolutely brilliant food! Mix pakora was phenomenal and vegetable great too! Delhi Lamb and butter chicken never fail to hit the spot! Wine and kingfisher lager complimented the experience! Staff lovely and very attentive. Had not been to the restaurant for a while but certainly still excellent. Be back in December as going to the Cellar! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

If you want the best Indian food there's nowhere else to go but Charcoals, Glasgow. Friendly staff, fantastic food experience and very keenly priced. I won't go anywhere else for Indian food in Glasgow.
