Classic India in East Dunbartonshire

back to their best. everything outstanding

Service was great, super curries. Only criticism was that the food was a little salty for my palette but was told that was common for the local taste.

Paid £20 for a curry (pick up), it was stone cold as was chapati & rice. Defo won’t be back

Delish as usual. Chicken chatt in the sauce is a real highlight. Cheers!

Yet another great meal from Classic India

Delicious hot food, people are very friendly and helpful! They still served me although the kitchen was technically already closed! In the end we had a very nice little chat and the owner even offered me to camp on his parking place, so nice and welcoming!! I fully recommend this restaurant:))

Food was mega delicious as always from Classic India :)

Love the food from this place, never disappointed with the quality. Without any doubt, the best Indian restaurant in the area (and yes, I've tried them all!).

Our monthly curry venue was the "Classic India" Milngavie. The restaurant is cosy but has a very plain decor downstairs, we never got to see the mezzanine. The staff are so friendly and helpful. The food was a little bit of a let down. The chicken tikka was slightly tough and the bhoona sauce very runny. We were pleasantly surprised at the total bill as there is a 20% discount on mains on a Tuesday and Wednesday. The points we were going to give it was a 6 a 7 and a 7. After we got the bill and spoke the ever so friendly manager we decided decided on a 7 a 8 and an 8. So overall its a 7.75 out of 10. Hasta la vistà. We will be back.

First time trying Classic India, it was well worth the short wait (15 mins) Will definitely be back again.

The best local Indian restaurant in milngavie

Always outstanding meals (dining in or take out ) service is great. cosy booths add a feel good factor. Highly recommended.

We had a home delivery from this place. It is the worst Indian food I have ever had in my life. The Chicken Rogan Josh was cooked as Korma, the chapati was made from old stale flour. I contacted the restaurant and they did not even reply. Plenty of other good Indian restaurants in this area.

fantastic food but portion sizes reduced by quite a lot.

Lovely food as always from Classic India.

Butter chicken is usually good but it tasted sour and was watery.

Just moved to the area, thought I’d order a meal deal before a spend a fortune on food a don’t like. The naan bread was cold and the restaurant is only 5 min away, had to get delivery as I had 8 week old puppy n couldn’t go. The food was ok, the curry tasted like it was a packet or jar of sauce with chicken tikka added. The pakora came with a spicy sauce not the mild one I like and no lemon slice to squeeze over pakora. I won’t order from here again

Can’t go wrong with Classic India. I had the meal deal and everything was spot on. Poppadoms, mixed pakora and a Rogan Josh with rice. Great deal and very tasty. Delivery was very quick and the driver was friendly.

Arrived at the time stated. Onion bhajis very spicy. Not overly impressed with the flavours of the curries we ordered. Two were very bland. Naans a bit dry too. The food wasn’t bad and I know it’s reading that it was. But it also wasn’t good.

Great food at the right price. Fantastic popadoms

Amazing food every time super friendly staff quick not expensive come here all the time and every time I choose from the massive menu it’s always amazing

It was the only time (so far) that I visited this restaurant. The service was very helpful, prompt and quick. Our 5-member group chose different starters and main dishes, and all were excellent (so other foods on the menu are likely to be very good too). The layout is not my favourite (too much privacy), buying is personal. The quality of the dishes and the service gave an excellent dinner time experience.

Tastefull food and excellent service.

Super fast delivery, food was brilliant as always !

Excellent food and service, cater well for large groups with attentive staff and great food.

Food was lovely except the ban way soggy and chewy. Threw it out.

fantastic food. We've not used Classic for ages, but will certainly use again.

Food was left on door step,, freezing cold by the time we got it

Great food at a reasonable price 👍

Just had a Tarka Daal takeaway and it was absolutely delicious. Also the best veg pakora I’ve ever tasted. The meal deal is great value. Didn’t eat in the restaurant this time but whenever we have the service always excellent,

Great curries. Best in the area

I've ordered a few times - always get the South Indian Garlic Chilli Chicken Garlic Nan and rice, it always arrives really hot - and I don't mean just the temperature of the food, it's hot!!! Really good flavours in the SIGC, it will always be my go to!! It never takes too long to arrive, and it's one of their own drivers that are always friendly.

love it here, best indian in glasgow

Everything was delicious! Thank you so much! Will be back to sit in! Butter chicken was a favourite with everyone!

Delivery -great, food hit the spot

The second time I have tried a takeaway since new ownership and sadly most definitely the last . Ordered a korma and butter chicken and sides. Chicken pakora, was mediocre vegetable was nice. Chicken korma was quite nice but the butter chicken was the worst I have ever tasted in 35 years ! Pinkish sauce and super sweet it was actually inedible and got thrown out . Never again ! Shame as it’s my local .

Excellent food and really attentive service.

Absolutely delicious food, very friendly staff and management, best curry I've ever had

The service and food were excellent. Great restaurant, subtle and sophisticated use of spices. Staff are attentive and professional.

1st time we have been to the classic India . But will definitely return had a meal there on Saturday 11th November and it was Lovely food hot and well presented staff lovely will be back Stuart and Sue manchester

Only used as Takeaway/ delivery. Food has been fantastic. Highly recommend.

Great restaurant, delicious food, helpful staff and good value for money. Well worth a visit!!

Visisted on a Friday night, a few people in but it died off quickly. Staff were pleasant and efficient. Food was below average, best things were poppadoms and the lamb chop starter. Everything else just seemed over spiced or bland.

the food is very good! they have indian beer on tab! staff very friendly!

I'm nearly 60 years old and Indian Cuisine has been my favourite since I was growing up in the Midlands. I've had many favourite restaurants over the years, both takeaway and dine in. I have now tested this place about six times and it's without doubt one of the best I've ever experienced! I think the mark of a truly great food establishment is not to try your favourite dish and compare it to others, but to try as much of the menu as possible. I've tried different dishes every time, and I've never had a single dish that is less than stunning! Also, a great 20% off discount when dining in on certain days. A fantastic, benchmark Indian Restaurant! Well done.

Some of the best Indian food I've ever had. Just amazing.

Best Indian I have had in months.

Hospitality is good. Service and env is good. Taste is ok-ok.. It is not bad at all, but could be improved.

Very friendly staff gear food great night with friends

Been here a few times for dinner, food is always amazing, and the staff are amazing as well. This place is a must for great food

Really nice, just what I needed. I was by myself and had just finished the West Highlands Way and really fancied a curry to celebrate. Came here and, despite being a very popular spot, they were able to fit me in. The restaurant was very busy (always a good sign) and despite this the service was exceptionally good - food was at my table in a timely fashion and, most importantly, the staff all were all very friendly and welcoming. I had a really good feed here, eyes bigger than belly I'm afraid though. Would absolutely come back here and would totally recommend the place to anyone passing through or living in Milngavie.

Beautiful food great customer service

The south indian garlic chillie is FAB!!! Its always my go to. Staff are friendly and attentive. Nann bread is always huge and fresh, as is the rice. Whenever I want an indian meal locally, I know where to go.

I was a regular takeaway customer however on this occasion it was a poor amount of lamb in a weak Bhuna curry sauce, by coincidence relatives of mine ordered a takeaway family meal and had the same experience . I am wondering if it is a new chef or owners but I will go elsewhere very disappointing.

Food was superb and the staff were fantastic, will definitely be back

Always really good food and great service

I am always happy to visit my local Indian restaurant. Good food, good value and friendly staff.

Very friendly staff go above and beyond for you food plenty off it and very hot will be returning

Wsn,t great chicken patia was too hot chicken was breast but not cut small korma wasn,t very creamy take away menu delivered with a smile by driver

Yummy food, very economical prices & excellent quality dishes. Really enjoyed my dinner from starter to main dish to sweets everyone should try here🤗 very polite & friendly staff 👍luv the ambience..Highly recommended 👌

People who knows me knows I'm a observer. Went upstairs to this restaurant and lil kitchen door was opened so I peaked through and can't tell you all, that even the kitchen was so neat and cleaned . It looked so very much hygienic like home kitchen and that's the reason the food was so fresh from a fresh kitchen. Fantastic restaurant and a lovely lovely staff. Service was very quick and we had a wonderful meal in a peaceful soothing atmosphere. Loved all the decor too. Thanks for the beautiful service. Highly highly recommend CLASSIC INDIA for pure authentic Indian food.

Lovely food. Very friendly and efficient service and a nice cosy atmosphere. We will be back.

Sad to say but it was one of the worst curry dishes i have had. Ordered the south indian (chicken) garlic chilli, as this was recommended as one of their hot dishes. I ask if i could have it extra hot, which they said was no problem. The aroma coming from the bag once i left the premises, was amazing, but when i took the lid off the chicken carton, i was greeted by a dish that could only be described as Coloured water. It was that watery, i could not pour it onto my plate, so had to eat it from the carton. It was NOT hot, and as for making it extra hot for me, well all i got, was ONE chilli pepper!! This was one evening meal that was a waste of money, and it wasnt reasonably priced either.

Fast, friendly service with great presentation Some of the best Indian I've had in Glasgow, with generous servings and cheap prices to boot. Garlic naan was fluffy, flavourful, and perfectly done. Chicken Jalandhri was beautifully spiced, juicy, and filling. Absolutely recommend. You'll have to excuse the mid-meal picture. I couldn't stop myself once they put the food in front of me.

Great curry and atmosphere..can't wait to come back again ..welldone guys

Good environment with friendly and always smiling front staff.variety of food selection for both dine-in n takeaway.one of the best option for indian food outside city.

Just ate out meal for 2 from the classic india in Milngavie. In general the food was very flavoursome and tasted good. It was hot and promptly delivered by a smiling driver. Im just offering a little constructive criticism as I'm in the food industry and have worked with Indian chefs for several years. The sauces tasted great but were a little watery. The chicken was not pan fried, it had been pre cooked and diced and re heated in the sauce. Thats a little dissapointing as it says all the chicken dishes are like that. Its misleading. The nan bread was slightly undercooked The poppadoms were soft/not fresh. It was a bit of a shame because your sauces(korma amd South Indian garlic and chilli were very tasty, and the total including delivery was nearly £30. For £30 im expecting something withought faults. I read somewhere you recently won curry awards, I wish you were just a little more consistent.

The food was lovely, the only downside was the fact that the waitress needs to shower more often.....the smell of sweet was terrible... But in terms of food it was very good.

A one hour wait is beyond a joke. Table next to us ordered 15 minutes after us and got there food first ?????!!!! Another table came in again after us and got there food before too. - clearly don’t do orders in the order they come in clearly give preferential treatment to regulars. I won’t recommend coming here. Writing this review still waiting for main debating popping round the corner for fish and chips I know it was Saturday night but really disappointed

Though carrying a slightly heftier price tag, it is however an establishment of high food and staff quality Unlikely to disappoint. Portions are big, food is cooked to perfection. I truly can't mark down the quality at all.

Wow wow wow! We are extremely pleasantly surprised, because this restaurant is a bit hidden from a passerby's view. The food was the most authentic Indian food we have tried in Glasgow. Prices are suberb, extremely good quality. Every dish has different spices and nothing is mild. Staff is very kind and great mannered. Overall it was great and definitely we will come back many times!

Oh wow, we had a fantastic dinner here before heading off on the West Highland Way the next day. Loved it! Great vegetarian options. Highly recommended :)

Thanks Vivek and team for another fabulous takeaway. Food was delicious . Had the meal deal for two. Really great value for money.👍 See you soon .

My wife and I have eaten in numerous curry houses across the UK and the globe so feel we're able to benchmark appropriately. We booked here based on the positive reviews but unfortunately we found the food to be very average tasting. The starter (onion bhajis) were far too salty and the main course (lamb curry) just lacked flavour. The rice (pilau) was particular bland and tasted like something purchased from a supermarket. The food wasn't terrible but just not up to a standard of most other Indian restaurants we've dined at. The venue was very nice but overall very disappointed.

We have eaten here on several occasions and had lovely meals with great service and have also had lovely meals delivered but tonight unexpectedly we were disappointed. Firstly one dish was not delivered which was fine, they brought it later, but sadly the quality as a whole was not to their usual standard- the onion bajis were over salted, the spicy onions were really bitter (presumably given as an apology with poppadoms) and the garlic naan tasted really odd and couldnt be eaten. The pakora, rice and chicken dishes were delicious and up to usual standard. Don't know what went wrong tonight guys but might be a long time before we order again. Sorry.

Curry a bit watery, and lacked salt and depth and heat. Veg Pakora Lovely, if it wasn't for pakora my lamb curry would be a two star. Sorry

Extremely welcoming on arrival, table for the baby with us rather than having to ask for a highchair, the food was excellent and the staff were great. One of us also has allergies and they couldn't have more accommodating. This was our first visit and were pleasantly surprised that there was 20% off on a Wednesday. Will definitely return.

We had a great dinner. If you are going to hike the West Highland Way this is a perfect place to eat before you are saying goodbye to non-Scottish food.

Family of five visited Classic India last night. Service was polite and quick. The starters were impressive and set us up nicely for lovely mains. Prices are fair and competitive, including drinks.We'll be back.

This restaurant is very nice and cosy we recieved a nice welcome on arrival . We had vegetarian food it was delicious, would definitely go there again !

Good helpful staff, worth the visit.

3 of us went along on Saturday night. Very popular restaurant so advisable to book. Service was excellent as was the food quality. Portions were quite generous. Our favourite Indian restaurant.

Really good food, friendly service, I highly recommend.

Attentive staff, food very tasty, freshly made.

Ate here last night, 24/01/2022. Food, service and price excellent, can’t recommend it enough. Had my all time favourite, South Indian Garlic Chilli Chicken, it was best I’ve had in over a decade…….. 5 ✨ isn’t enough! We were particularly impressed that the menu has little icons explaining if the item contained any allergic/intolerance ingredients….. well done Folks!

Best Indian restaurant in Scotland. Lovely friendly staff, always got time for a chat. Been going here for years now. I have moved out the area, but still travel to visit this wee gem.

Always amazing food and great service. My pal always loves the food and so do I.

Absolutely divine it must be said. Literally left 10 minutes ago and HAD to write a review as it was so good and staff so friendly. New management seem to of transformed the place and will definitely visit whenever I can.. 10 out of 10..

Always good food. And always make you feel so welcome 🙏

Staff were nice,pakora was lovely,the lamb bhoona was very watery

Absolutely delicious food without any doubt , reasonable prize attentive service we will definitely be back thanks guys for looked after us.

Always a delicious curry and always as requested e.g. "not too hot" or "thin and crisp naan" The new owner has made the restaurant as comfortable and atmosphere as possible, given the quaint structure of the building.. Don't let other reviews put you off, go and treat yourself to an excellent meal.

I realised I had been overcharged by about £8. Very bad attitude from staff when I pointed it out. Eventually got my refund with no apology and bad feeling. The food was disappointing. The Lamb Rogan Josh was swimming in sauce and very small pieces of lamb.

Very disappointing takeaway. Having heard great things we decided to give them a try but won’t be repeating that mistake. Chicken clearly not tikka and very tough and chewy. Tasted microwaved and not fresh. Salad that came with one meal had end of the lettuce head which is inedible.

Went to this hotel on Tueday evening. I eat Indian food on a regular basis and have done so for over 30 years. I can honestly say it was the nicest Indian food I have had. I had a lamb desi Jalfrazi. There was plenty of meat, sauce, and certainly taste. The party of four all had different main courses but were all extremely happy what we chose. We had mushroom pilau rice, nan, garlic nan and a side dish of saag paneer. The staff were polite, service was quick. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone. First class.

Got curry tonight and the poppadoms were in bits like leftover and the curry was not very hot (in heat or spice) paid cash was £ 17.90 and delivery guy said do you want change so disappointed 😒

Had gone to classic India (milngavie)last night service was great but food was awful chapattis burnt and hard chicken korma and I thought I was eating beef not chicken will not recommend this to anyone as food was horrendous.

Saturday 11th September’21 - Another great sit in dining experience. Delicious food and lovely staff. Had Prawn Shishlack starter and Lamb Ghosht for main. This is a gem of a local restaurant 😋👍

Great food, good service and all social distancing respected

You honestly will never find a better South Indian garlic chilli chicken, even the naan was the best
