Ganges in Angus

Beautiful Indian to sit in or takeaway. We were impressed by staff friendliness, quick service and the food was really good. Felt the curry was a bit smoky which was strange but tasty nonetheless. Beautiful inside and car park a 2 minute walk away. Saw families, couples and friends all eating, can dress up or casual.

5*food and service. Best indian we have had. Glad we booked. Very busy. Staff were exellent. Only here for overnight stay from fife. but will return. Highly recommended. Thanks

The food was delicious and the staff are great. I would visit again if I am in the area.

I have taken my family to eat here twice and both times I was extremely impressed. The food quality is outstanding and the service is first class. Rajib and his team are very friendly and will do their best to ensure that your experience is enjoyable.

Delicious food accompanied by faultless service. Greetings from the restaurant manager upon arrival which set the tone of the evening. We had a mixed starter for two, followed by a tandoori mixed grill and a spicy chicken tikka Masala all of which was outstanding. Service we received from all staff was exceptional. 10/10 :)

Best curry in Carnoustie hands down. Our last visit was on Valentine’s Day and we started with the mixed starter for two which was a nice mixture of different items. We were given plates with a variety of dipping sauces and everything in the dish was great. For the main I had a moonlit chicken and my partner had the spicy chicken tikka masala. Both curries were excellent although I think next time I will get something spicier with lamb. The cheese and garlic naan deserves a special mention, it had cheese inside the bread itself and was nice and melted. Service was all very fast and friendly. The price was also extremely reasonable for the amount of food we had.

Love it food always fabulous ❤️

A great restaurant for good food, service and atmosphere. Even though the waiter dropped a full bowl of cooked rice on our table (he was very apologetic and shocked..😲) it didn't detract from a wonderful place to eat good authentic Indian food. Plenty to choose from on the menu and very tasty flavors throughout the meals we have had over the years. Can't really fault it. Even the carry-out food is delicious.

The food was delicious! We booked an early table to save the grandparents the bedtime fight. The place was really busy when we arrived at 6. Staff were all really attentive, friendly, and helpful. Place was clean and well decorated, felt really intimate despite how busy it was. We didn't spend as much as we expected to but still went home with full stomachs. Looking forward to going back again!

Amazing food, one of the best I've ever had. Really friendly and caring staff too. I can't recommend this place highly enough.

Normally great food however this order was absolutely disgusting and was only fit for the bin The dishes had more oil that the North Sea Tandoori mixed grill was dry The Starter in the containers were floating in oil I think they forgot to put garlic on the nan breads I genuinely will never order from here again

Ganges was fantastic. Couldn't fault anything, and no surprise the place was fully booked. This is traditional Indian good done right, non pretentious, not trying to be ever, just making damp good food. Honestly, everything was Brill. The grilled/sizzling stuff was ace, as ead the garlic paratha. Worth a trip to Carnousite especially, if say.

Everything was perfect. Can't fault anything. Young waiter Kyle was a credit to this restaurant. He was exceptional.

Me and my boyfriend love coming to Ganges. Food is always fresh and delicious. Staff are extremely kind and attentive. One of my favourite restaurants!!!

Had a fab Sunday dinner, nicely attentive staff and manager. The menu had the classics as well as many other different styles. The food and drink prices were very fair. Unfortunately it is a wee bit off the main road, albeit in the middle of the town.

We wanted to try somewhere different for my best friend's birthday: he has recently relocated to Scotland from America and after research, he choose Ganges Restaurant, which I had never been to either. We had reserved a table in advance and were immediately shown to a cosy corner table by the window. The dining room is tastefully decorated and has a cosy and intimate vibe. Our drink order was promptly taken and as the designated driver I enjoyed a mocktail, which was very tasty, the birthday boy enjoyed a Cobra beer (good to see it was on draught and not just served in a bottle) and his partner ordered the mango lassi: it was absolutely delicious and clearly freshly prepared by the kitchen - I would definitely order this on a return visit. We ordered a portion of mushroom pakora, which were served piping hot and with three dipping sauces. For our mains we each selected a different option that we hadn't tried before and opted for keep rice and cheese and garlic naan to share with our dishes. Each curry was delicious, as was the rice which was perfectly seasoned. However, the outstanding highlight was the naan bread, which we all agreed was worth the journey alone. Service was attentive, but unobtrusive and I found that the food was very reasonably priced for its outstanding quality. Definitely the best Indian restaurant that I have visited in this region of Scotland and I would not hesitate to return for a special occasion.

Absolutely perfect. Had my birthday meal here tonight and it was the first time we'd been. Can't wait to return. Everything was perfect and the service was excellent. Definitely a place we look forward to bringing people to. :)

Could be the finest Indian restaurant in Scotland

We had been recommended by multiple people and decided to order a Ganges takeout for four adults. The food was exceptional and very authentic. We will certainly be returning.

Fantastic restaurant, was recommended by a friend and didn’t disappoint. The food was amazing and the service was first class, we were made feel really welcome and the staff couldn’t have been more attentive, I even got a piece of biscoff Cheese cake on the house for my birthday! Would highly recommend this wee gem of a place to anyone 👍👍

Fabulous meal. Friendly and informative staff too.

First time there and won't be the last

We had a beautiful dinner at the Ganges! The food was delicious and the service was 5 star. My husband ordered the Vindaloo and was very happy. The other vindaloos he has had were not as spicy and as good as this one! We will definitely be back. The best authentic Indian food in the UK and USA we’ve had in 20 years! Thank you!

Best Indian restaurant I’ve been to, what a find. Food excellent, staff very friendly and super efficient. Would be confident in recommending Ganges to any curry connoisseurs. Top notch.

Amazing place to eat excellent service food is amazing

Brilliant food and service. Highly recommend and will definitely be back. Big shout out to the servers who were very accommodating.

5/5 food was delicious, portion sizes were good and the service was amazing !!!! The staff were lovely and the restaurant was beautiful inside.

We ordered a takeaway to be delivered to the caravan site we were staying at. It was delivered quickly with a very friendly delivery driver. Food was hot, fresh and delicious.. very authentic, the best curry we've had in a long time. Would highly recommend.

My guesthouse host Lisa recommended The Ganges, said it would not disappoint…Lisa was right! The food was absolutely AMAZING. Staff were brilliant. The restaurant was quiet when we arrived but quickly filled up. Probably best to book this in advance to avoid disappointment.

My husband and I went here for dinner after a friend recommended it and we will definitely be back. Food was amazing. We both had starters and mains and shared a naan bread. All the food was delicious and we were very full afterwards. Staff were lovely and very attentive. We went on a Tuesday night and it was very busy with a lot of take aways going out but service was still very good. Having had it recommended to us we will be recommending to others.

Fantastic, authentic Indian in the unlikely town of Carnoustie. Old school menu and service done well. Food is stunning

Wonderful food, great service and a really nice buzz around the tables. Staff were very attentive. I'd easily travel to Ganfes bypassing lots of other restaurants.

We went to the restaurant with family (six people including a 2 and a 1 year old) the staff is very accommodating and friendly. I have been to a few Indian restaurants the last 30 years but I found this one the best I have been to (some restaurants come close but for me this was top notch). The food was excellent the service was great. There is a parking lot a few yards down the road (free after 5:30pm). Ganges has a cosy feel to it, together with the friendly staff is sets a lovely atmosphere to enjoy fantastic Indian food. Highly recommend to go eat there.

Wir haben hier sehr gut gegessen. Das Personal war sehr freundlich. Als wir sagten, dass wir den Käsekuchen so lecker fanden wurde uns ein weiteres Stück umsonst angeboten. Das Essen hatte eine gute Schärfe und wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt

Wonderful meal the Ganges restaurant last night. Not one to normally write a review but found this wee gem of a place. Food and service was excellent. Very tasty starter and main meal. Would certainly return when I’m next back in the area First class service and delicious meal. Highly recommend this Indian restaurant

Moth watering food and welcoming staff! Visited here with my girlfriend and had a lovely meal. The place was packed and the staff still managed to find us a table and get us fed within 15 mins of sitting us. That sort of services goes a long way and would highly recommend to anyone travelling to Carnoustie.

Nice service and location. Food was oversugared and unfortunately far from authentic.

You will probably not get a better curry anywhere in Angus (or Dundee for that matter).

What a shame. This place was recommended to me and I can see many glowing reviews, so maybe I was just unlucky but the main dish i had simply was not what it said on the menu and clearly whoever was cooking it didn't really know what it was meant to be! Green herb chicken is not common and so it was great to find it on the menu...and the description was just what I would expect: coriander, mint, methi, garlic, ginger, not really hot at all but punchy with herbs and a "touch" of yogurt. However what i got was sickly sweet and cloying extremely "creamy" korma with some coriander in it. I did query it and the waiter clearly was not at all familiar with the dish so asked what I woudl like instead..I said I'd like the dish on the menu and so it was taken away and came back with a bit more coriander, a hint of mint, huge amount of spring onion and far too much chilli! So it was virtually indedibly hot. In the end I quietly said that it was not at all acceptable and I couldn't eat it...but they still tried, initially, to charge for it all. I simply said that I would pay for half of the main course only and so the bill was taken away and changed and in the end they knocked it all off the bill. And it is a shame because the staff were actually very nice and trying to be helpful, plus the naan bread was excellent (which I made sure to tell them!) but the fact that no-one seemed to recognise that the dish was a complete disaster does ring alarm bells about what is going on in the kitchen, and this is not a cheap restaurant...

Superb food. Wonderful friendly staff and service. Nothing to much bother. Highly recommended.

Waited over 2 and half hours for food. Called multiple times and was told on each occasion its way. From where Belgium?) Had this been a busy Saturday night I could of kind understanding about the lengthy wait. But it was a Tuesday night. Also the curries seem to be overly salty these days aswell you should stop taking orders if you can't deliver in the time you say which was 45 minutes. Absolute joke will.not return.

Very tasty authentic Indian cuisine! They were able to accommodate our 10 man golf group with a days notice for a Friday meal. Staff were friendly, giving us excellent food selections based on our individual tastes. Highly recommend. Online booking was available and easy to use.

Really nice staff nice surroundings and the food was absolutely amazing 👏 definitely be back 😋

Small but tastefully decorated, I got a table of 3 booked with no hassle Service was OK thought the younger of the 2 ladies working looked a bit like she couldn't be bothered being there We had startes, mains and sweets I'm afraid I don't share the same opinion of some other reviews on here I thought the Jumbo king Prawn Tandoori lacked taste, and the sag gosht could have done with more Sag in it, poor and mix Tandoori platter were very nice Overall, it was pleasant but a little pricey

Very delicious food!! Perfect portions! Service is immaculate! Had a great time with family! Will definitely come visit again!

Absolutely outstanding food, one of the best Indian Restaurant's I've eaten at. Highly recommended.

Curry excelente, pan muy rico, normal y con queso. Empanadillas y magníficos arroces con verduras y blanco. Buen vino chileno y servicio profesional.

I love getting my weekend Ganges treat, recommend to others.

Heerlijk gegeten, zeer goede kwaliteit en enorm vriendelijke ontvangst en bediening. Zeker voor diëten ook zeer geschikt.

Absolutely amazing. First time ordering and certainly won’t be the last. X

Ok, there are hidden gems and there are nuggets of gold. Simply this is the best Indian subcontinent restaurant I have been to. All the food is cooked fresh and the staff are friendly s as he attentive. Strange that it is in Carnoustie. If it were in Edinburgh, people would be raving. The secret is now out!!!! Get in there!!!!

An hors pair dining experience with delectable Indian food and the beautiful smiles of the staff who goes to great lengths to create a friendly and welcoming experience for the customers. Definitely a must-visit!

Best foodie Indian that I have had for a long, long time. Very tasty food. Great menu. Great decor, Great service. If you ever venture to Carnoustie and are looking for great Indian food look no further than the Ganges. From the outside it may well look nothing but step inside and experience all the above.

Superb ! Wow!! What a fabulous restaurant. The quality of the food, aromas from the natural spices , food options was fantastic too many nice things on the menu! There was ample wines and spirits to select from, beautiful ambience and tables well sanitized after each patron. One of the parties had a gluten allergy and the team at Ganges diligently ensured everything was perfect and so too it was !! Carnoustie is so lucky to have such a fantastic restaurant & takeaway!! The food was so good that we went back a second night during our visit to Scotland. Wishing you continued success so deserved !!!

Visited for my daughters' birthdays. Staff were so friendly and the food was excellent. Will definitely be back and I highly recommend. The Chicken Tali was delicious!

Quite simply , the best Indian food I’ve tasted in the U.K. ! Great variety of dishes available all freshly cooked to order . I’ve been fortunate enough to sample Indian food all over the world ( including India ) and this is up there...

My favourite Takeaway and Restaurant but again another disappointing review. Restaurant and Takeaway food is very very good but when busy as tonight standards drop. Takeaway meal for 2 delivered and AGAIN No Onion Chuckney and No Sauces for starter. No quality control from kitchen...

Food was delicious, service was great.

Takeaway (home delivered) ordered via the website. So easy to do, and it arrived quickly, hot, fresh and totally delicious. It was all good, but the mushroom pakora and garlic paratha were particular highlights for me.

Went here as a one off while we were staying in Carnoustie, seen the reviews and thought we’d give it a go. Can definitely say we weren’t disappointed one bit! I’m a very fussy eater and like a bit of everything so asked for 3...

Food was excellent. Only small gripe was that our food did not all arrive at the same time, which is disappointing. It wasn't too long a wait, but enough for most people to feel uncomfortable about continuing eating

Fabulous food, great service, friendly staff.

Called in on my own (not something I am used to). Staff were very welcoming and service was quick but by no means pushy. This was perfect as I was hungry after a busy day. Starter was removed and I was asked if was ready...

Great night out with the girls. Food was fantastic and plenty for a doggy bag if you wished

Worried that it would be quite, being a chilly Thursday, but a decent turn out. This was a present, I'm not a fan of Indian food, but was very impressed. Staff very friendly and attentive the manager even asked if I was OK due to...

Gorgeous restaurant. Food was delicious and all cooked to perfection. Staff were really welcoming and friendly. Made you feel right at home. Highly recommend a visit if you are in the area.

Absolutely delicious, the food was so fresh and the staff were amazing. Wasn't sure what to have and they were kind enough to help, they even went out of their way to adapt the food to my liking. Definitely will be back.

2nd time visiting and was blown away by service and quality.. service was amazing food was delicious will definitely visit again..

Hadn't been for a few years as not living in vicinity. Returned on Sunday past and we were delighted to find that standards are still exceptionally high. Food offering is first class-the seek kebab and chicken jalfrezi were particularly tasty-bursting full of flavour. Service was...

Excellent food and service, highly recommend

Ordered here for the first time tonight. Food arrived on time, hot and delicious. Can't recommend enough

Ordered here for the first time tonight. Food arrived on time, hot and delicious. Can't recommend enough

Travelled from Arbroath to visit this highly rated restaurant and we were not disappointed. Lovely interior and decor done to an excellent standard. Service was brilliant and nothing too much trouble for the fantastic staff. The menu has an amazing amount of dishes available and...

Very expensive and food is not at standards of few year back. Service average. Drinks limited. 3 starters and 4 Currys for 140 GBP (drinks included as 3 guiness can, 2 draughts beer, 2 gin Tonic and 2 coke can)

Tried this for the first time. Compliments to the Chef on a Sunday night ! Far superior to anything in the Falkirk area ( where they win curry awards !!!??? ). Lamb Bhuna was excellent, so soft and not 50% chuch pieces as you normally...

Very nice place very good service and food quality was extremelly good.Definatelly recommend this restraunnt

This was a lovely Indian restuarant with a good selection on the menu Food was Fabulous and very good service

We had a wonderful meal here after being recommended by the Carnoustie Hotel, where are staying for the weekend * Lamb chops - divine! * Chicken Tikka - beyond yummy! * Garlic chilli chicken - bowl practically licked clean! * Peshwari naan - awesome All...

Great tasty food great place to visit.

The best Indian restaurant around, first class place , great service, lovely staff,good size portions and worth the money, will be back agian

Prices have increased by 30%; more than any other takeaway I have been to. Prices will increase in current climate but too much in one go. Purchased veg. Pakora on last visit for takeaway and it was over cooked and burnt on edges. No flavour....

Falblich harmonisch eingerichtet, der Inneneinrichter hat viel Stiel und ein gutes Auge

Absolutely amazing. One of the best Indians I know of. Super friendly staff also. Make sure you order something cooked in a tandoor, like the lamb tikka or naan bread. Will be back in the future!

Excellent food and service. Reasonable prices. Efficient staff

Amazing Indian restaurant the tandoori and naan was cooked perfectly, staff were welcoming and very friendly

Amazing meal - had the paneer tikka and it was so tasty. Absolutely loved the decor and ambience. Also the cocktails were lovely. Will definitely be back.

Twice visited in the last few weeks and both occasions were a culinary delight. Brought friends from Swindon on our first visit - Ganges you excelled!. Second visit was for our daughter’s 21st, again faultless! Amazing food, great service and extremely reasonable prices. Thank you Ganges

Wow! One of the best Indian meals I’ve had. The food was outstanding and the service was faultless. We were staying at the Carnoustie hotel and saw that this was a short walk away plus it had great reviews. We were not disappointed. Would definitely...

Sons birthday on 6th August 22. Love this place. Food,service and vibe just awesome. You will not be disappointed. A Tuesday tea time, Place was full- that says it all

We only found this place by looking at reviews. We were staying at the Carnoustie golf hotel and my father and I both agreed it’s the best curry we have ever had. I called to book a table at short notice and they were very helpful. The service was fantastic and the food was incredible. That good we said we’re going back tomorrow before we head back to London. If your visiting Carnoustie, please give it a go. 5 stars guys. Excellent service and food!

Lovely place, staff are brilliant, friendly and first class service. The meal.....absolutely delicious.

Visited Ganges with my wife on Saturday evening .Table booked at very short notice and so glad I did as this was a terrific meal. We shared a starter platter which came beautifully presented then had a couple of curries which were absolutely delicious. A...

Brilliant restaurant ! The best Indian dishes we ever had. Tasty and subtle food - very friendly staff. We went there twice during our stay in Carnoustie. If you are in or near Carnoustie, this is the place to go !

Down from Keith in the motorhome, we were lucky to find the Ganges Indian Restaurant. Food was fantastic and so was the service.The staff were very attentive and friendly. Beautiful decor too. We definitely will be back in the future. Highly recommended.

Our visit to Carnoustie was during The Open Championship and had us returning to town most nights after all the other sit down restaurants had closed their kitchens. Fortunately, Ganges was a very good choice no matter the reason. The food rivals any Brick Lane...
