Crowwood Hotel in North Lanarkshire

Visited with friends for dinner. ALL agreed this was a fantastic dining experience. 75% of our party chose from the Asian Menu while 25% from the European Menu. Both menus provided an extensive choice of dishes to satisfy any palate. The chosen starters comprised 3 Pakoras, chicken, prawn and vegetable. Beautifully prepared and Presented, quite excellent. The mains comprised Chicken Tikka, Lamb Biryani, Kashmiri Chicken Korma, Punjabi Chicken and Steak Pie, again ALL wonderfully prepared and presented. Accompaniments comprised Boiled Rice, Chapatis, Nan Bread and Peshwari Nan. What a feed was had by all. Beers wine and soft drinks complemented the food. Highly Recommended. A further visit imminent.

I have been to Alba Restaurant many times for business and family meals, and this is the first negative experience - but, as I've posted many positive reviews, I feel need to share the not so good - Family meal for 4 - arrived on time - 10 mins to get table - another 20 mins to get even drinks order - and I had to leave, just as my main meal arrived, as all others had received and finished theirs. The manager gave me a generous bill reduction, but that's not the point. The issue for me was that the restaurant couldn't cope with the customers that they had booked in, and the management team on hand did nothing to proactively address this. Potentially great restaurant that needs to learn from this

We had a family lunch here and really enjoyed it. Food was lovely and full of flavour. Service was friendly and helpful. The decor is very modern and we had a nice view of the golf course. Well worth a visit

Brilliant value food excellent good service easy to get parked and good access to M8 M73 M8 will be back soon can't say farer than that

reviews Dine in | Dinner | £20–30 We were met with a very warm welcome. Seated at a beautiful circular table. The staff were friendly and very attentive. There was a wide choice available on the menu, so something for everyone’s taste. Our meals were beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. Our meals were all absolutely delicious. Our family member who’d travelled over from Australia to spend time with us had a wonderful time in the restaurant. One staff member even took photographs of our family together so no one was missed out. It was a lovely gesture. I can highly recommend eating here and we will definitely be back! Thanks for having us! 😊 Food

I took 2 of my Daughters my Grandson and Granddaughter for a spot of dinner on 8th December. As it was our 1st visit I didn't really know what to expect. The reception was really good and the staff were so friendly. As we had booked beforehand we were taken to our table straight away. The table had plenty of space around which I really like as some places you are too close to other diners. The decor and layout was very impressive. The food was absolutely beautiful from the Haggis bon bons to the various curries we tried. The 2 kids meals were really good as well , and all were good sized portions. Considering how good the food was it wasn't too expensive. As I said it was our 1st time but we will definitely be back. I would highly recommend.

We arrived today at 13.20 waited at reception desk, ignored for 2 or 3 minutes then some lady took an order from a male guest despite us being there first. Then a staff member spoke to the lady at reception still ignoring us. The male who placed the order returned and placed an order again as he forgot something again we were ignored. Then at 13.27 we were asked " can I help you" were told we were too late for lunch as the cut off is 13.30 and even then we would need to leave by 2.30pm. Despite not actually being 13.30 and the fact we waited for some service and ignored, it does not say lunch online or on menu that lunch is 12pm till 2pm but you can't sit down after 13.30. We were spoken rudely to as if we should have known the rules of this establishment. You need to update your website to state this. Infact it says 12pm till 3pm. Anyway very disappointed overall as we recently moved into the area and thought we would eat local but sadly that was our mistake. Really very disappointed so no good reviews from us I'm afraid. ☹️☹️

Delicious food and excellent service beautiful place for a meal out. The food didn't take long at all to come out even though we were a table of 12 and the restaurant was busy.

Fantastic meal at the Crowwood. Something for everyone on the menu. Staff were helpful and friendly. Good price for set menu £15 for 2 courses.

Looked ok at first. but chipped dishes Ladies toilets of the three cubicles one was locked closed the other two had NO locks. Food very average. i do not recommend

Me and my partner are vegetarian and for an Indian restaurant the options and amazing they cater for all needs!! First visit there certainly won’t be the last

Visited Alba for the first time on a Thursday evening. We opted for the pre-theatre menu which was very reasonably priced. My wife went for the European menu and I got the Indian menu. The chicken chaat was delicious and the Punjabi Style chicken for my main was fantastic too. Really different curry to what I would usually have, but I’m glad I went for it! Service was friendly and quick too. We will definitely be back.

me and my 10 friends went out for a meal and wow I couldn’t fault the place. As soon as we walked in we were greeted and shown to our table. The drink was fast and the food was exceptional. They even bought out a birthday cake for my friend’s birthday. Made the experience so much better.

The manager is shockingly rude for someone in a customer facing role. Lacks basic customer service skills. Won't be back and will certainly not be recommending to friends and family. The food is good but the attitude of staff from the top down really lets the place down. If they carry on like this it won't be long until they go the same way as previous owners.

Two of our group opted for the European menu, and the third chose from the Indian menu. Ballie offered guidance on our selection of dishes. The outcome was a succulent blend of colours, textures and flavours, served in generous portions. The limited wine list offers some highly quaffable options, at reasonable prices.

On first impression the restaurant was beautiful inside and very comfortable. The service is second to none and I can guarantee top class service! The food is amazing it's a must try. Been to many Indian restaurants and by far this was the best. Not only do they offer an Indian menu but they offer a European menu if spicy food isn't your thing. You will not be disappointed with the European menu either. Both the Indian and European menu is amazing. You definitely couldn't ask for a better place to have a great experience and meal! Well Done Alba, you never disappoint!

We thorougly enjoyed our meal. Especially the chicken bhoona. Lovely friendly staff. Great value for money. Only negative is.my Dad walks with a zimmer frame & the disabled loo was too far for him to walk though the staff did offer to help. When I booked I did request a table as close to the disabled loo as posdible but not sure staff had noted this. Next time we would bring a wheelchair. Thst aside I would not hesitate to book again but if you are bringing someone with wLking difficulties plan ahead. Amazin food great friendly staff. We will be back. We could not finish all our food but you are not able to take what you dont eat away disappointing to see food waste. Would love to see that change!!

food was fantastic! great service and staff are very friendly and cheery. would definitely recommend!

Fabulous, personable service. Delicious food ! And forever friendly staff that always make you feel at home. Can’t recommend it enough . (And a big shout out to Serena.) Looking forward to going back .

The second visit to this restaurant, the first was a Christmas dinner, so I felt it unfair to be overly critical, as the food was very average, butbthe service was slow and inattentive. Well I wanted to be fair and judge on a normal evening...

Upon arrival at reception were completely ignored by staff for almost 10 minutes. Eventually the female manager made contact in a somewhat disinterested and surprisingly rude manner. Certainly she is in a miplaced position and definately not a people person. On the plus side the...

All starters and mains ordered tasted amazing, highly recommend eating there. The menu had a fantastic selection of...

This was our 6th time there in as many weeks. The positives : The food was absolutely amazing as per usual. The negatives : The atmosphere was horrendous - it looked like most customers were waiting in a dentist surgery rather than having a lovely...

Throughly enjoyed the experience,staff and surroundings were fantastic and the food was excellent. I will be going back.

Wonderful food and great service as always - we highly recommend this restaurant and recommend booking early!

Highly recommend Alba for dining. The food was excellent, but the service makes Alba exceptional. Kuran (Suraj) kept us entertained and comfortable the whole night. I will be recommending Alba for dinner to all my family and friends and I will 100% be back myself.

Visited the Alba restaurant and what an arrogant woman served us. Her opening line was are you waiting on someone else we said no and I was met with an attitude asking if we wanted to order then. Couldn’t believe it. Then my son asked...

We booked as a stop over on way to Perth and must say we both had an EXCELLENT experience in the Hotel, which is AMAZING VALUE for money, and the alba restaurant and Bar should be on everyone's bucket list, we had lunch and dinner...

Bought my friends over for a meal and did not leave disappointed excellent service all around food was amazing will be back soon.

Service: has gone downhill dramatically - not the waiting staff but the female (manager?) - grumpy, rude, abrupt!! Food: portion sizes smaller and bruschetta doesn't get served on a slice of Sunblest white bread! Requested the poppadums be refreshed as they were on the table...

Have visited few times and have always enjoyed the food. Waiting staff very friendly, however, the “Boss woman” whom the staff referred to as, was very unfriendly and unwelcoming and looked like she didn’t really want to be there. Secondly, staff need to be educated...

Excellent mix of Indian & Scottish food. Brilliant price @ £ 9.99 2 course. Highly recommended. Book in advance if going at weekend.

We stayed in the town for one night on business, great menu and service. The food was excellent, would thoroughly recommend.

A popular place, the menu offered Indian and British food. Had dinner here during my stay T the hotel, the Indian dishes I order were very good( chicken pakora and lamb chops) food was served hot. As it gets very busy sometimes orders get missed...

Excellent place for a family meal. Service was amazing food was extraordinary really good place to bring the kids out at an excellent value.

This was a regular place for us to visit due to the mixed menu which meant the kids could have something while we had a curry. Been 4 times since December and service has been poor every time. Not bringing out what we ordered, taking...

We came here for a family birthday. And all I can say is .wow.!!. Food was excellent service was excellent and it didn't rob the bank. What more could u want. Would I recommend. DEFINITELY.

Have always enjoyed the food and service at this restaurant ,however if our latest experience is anything to go by it won’t be getting many good reviews . Manager needs to start listening to constructive criticism by her customers, cold starters returned , can’t eat...

Second visit to Alba in a few months and once again enjoyed the food. The service however is another matter. On previous visits the two owners have been there and couldn’t have been nicer but on the last two occasions the woman who was on...

Before visiting yesterday I checked on Facebook to see that the lunch menu was on. No mention of the 27th being the full main menu only. I also phoned up the restaurant to double check that the lunch menu was on and I was told...

Well decorated Attentive staff Hot food Great food Downside No sides included Rice £3.25 Chapati £1.80 Garlic Nan £3.95 All drinks expensive Quality of drink poor

Staff amazing. Really friendly but not "in your face". Food out of this world. Great selection to suit all taste buds.

The smell when you enter is so strong your taste puds are doing summersaults in your mouth before you sit down. The reception area is very relaxing and you can sit and browse the menu while sipping a cool drink. The food is very flavoursome...

My boyfriend and I love Indian food but this was by far the best Indian food we have ever had! As a vegetarian it was so nice to have so many choices (any of the currys can be made with vegetables) however the lovely Bali...

Good choice of food to suit everyone in the group. Great sized portions. Service was slow and staff had to be reminded we were still there. We felt they were maybe a bit short staffed or had inexperienced staff. Overall very good though. We'll definitely...
