Gulnar Tandoori in Falkirk

Gulnar Tandoori is a place we stumbled upon by chance while visiting a friend in Labert. For starters, we had the vegetable samosa and the mixed platter which nicely set us up for an amazing culinary experience. For the main we had the South Indian Garlic Chilli Lamb, Chicken Pardesi and Chicken Biryani. We collectively agreed it was the best Indian meal that we have had in a very long time. I definitely recommend a visit.

Fabulous food and friendly service. Highly recommended

Fabulous selection of food. Service great and with friendliness and smiles. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely beautiful! Recommend 120%

This was our first experience here, 1st Sep 2024, will definitely not be our last. Recommended by a close friend, from the welcome to our service, quality of dishes, especially the lamb, it was overall a very enjoyable meal. I will happily recommend and will be back. Thank you Gulnar.

First visit & will definitely be back. The food was delicious & the staff are very warm and welcoming

Great first time trying. Will be back

Nice food and excellent service by Gulsanth Singh

Absolutely brilliant Indian buffet. Top quality food and service. Thoroughly recommended

We’ve been coming to The Gulnar for 30+ years and are never disappointed. We highly recommend the buffet.

Amazing food, great service and a really lovely family meal.

Great price, friendly staff and great food x

Lovely buffet, mushroom pakora is amazing! Thank you

Brought friends who had never had an Indian meal before & they absolutely loved it. Food & Staff were five star.

We've eaten here for the last 20 years and never had a bad meal. We always have the buffet, hot and plenty of choice.

Really wonderful food and service! Staff go above and beyond, highly recommend :)

Lovely time with friends and family and the food was lovely.

Always an amazing meal. Staff are so attentive.

A typical asian restaurant ! A must visit place for food lovers

So very sorry guys. Loved the Gulnar experience over many years. First take away for a long time. Vegetable pakora greasy. Vegetable samosas brilliant but channa oily. Chicken and mushroom curry average due to the mushrooms being fried beforehand. Big disappointment I'm afraid.

The only Indian buffet in Falkirk

Beautiful food service excellent.

We all had the buffet. Good selection of starters & mains and everything was delicious.

Brilliant - for a solo business traveller with nothing to do; perfect! One of the biggest Naan breads I’ve ever seen too…

Food was okay, atmosphere was good and service excellent

Love the service, food was okay. Atmosphere was great. We tried the buffet deal, and it is worth it, with ice-cream gulab janum and tea coffee included. Kids friendly, and clean bathroom. Of course, being halal is the deal breaker.

I was looking for the ex-owner of this place; Sucha Dhillon. Place is awesome and like the small town Larbert in the suburbs of Falkirk

Been a customer for decades. Always been very good. New management which have taken over recently have maintained (arguably increased) that the quality. So good!!

lovely dinner, and as always we thoroughly enjoyed everything x

Best Indian food, they have a lot dessert options and all good. Service was amazing and very friendly. Highly recommend!!

Wonderful meal. We had the buffet and it was fantastic value for money. Served by Gursand who was very friendly. We will definitely come back.

Well I’ve eaten at the Gulner for over 40;years and I ordered a carry out , well it=was the worst carry out I’ve ever had, pokoras cold, sauce bland and the curry was poor, tastes was bland sauce was bland rice was cool. Disappointing to say the least.

Haven't been to the Gulnar while, the mushroom panoramic was best I've tasted. The rest of the meal was a delight and service superb We'll be back.

Really good food, really nice staff.

Excellent food as always! Very friendly staff and lovely atmosphere

Great service and a decent selection on the buffet. Highly recommend if in the Larbert area and looking for a decent feed.

First time here, had the buffet which has full choices of starters and mains. Serving dishes were replenished frequently and everything was fresh, hot and very tasty! We will be back!

Been here on and off for years, service is always brilliant and so is the food. Def recommend!

Couldn't fault the meal or the service

The food was amazing, and the service from the staff was excellent they were very polite and well mannered.

Great food and great service, very friendly staff. Exactly what you expect any time you visit.

As always, great food, great service.

Good food, good times, good people. Would recommend the peshwari naan to anyone.

Best restaurant in Falkirk area 10 out 10

Have you ever travelled all over the work to try and get a decent, freshly made cheese Nan??? Me too! This cheese Nan was quite wonderful.It may sound simple, but you either get a dry Nan bread with some grated cheese sprinkled over……or a soggy soggy bottom(no-one wants that.!) This marvellous Nan was freshly prepared ,and piping hot. Ohhhh we also got a lovely lamb curry amd rice that was delicious ….but who cares about that!😀 Very nice guys amd gals in the restaurant area when you collect your food. We will be back .

Fab food and service at this restaurant, never been disappointed with either sit or takeaway offerings over many years as a customer. Have recommended to many, all of whom have had the same great experience 👍.

Was in central Scotland visiting family and heard about a few indian restaurants in area. Chose the gulnar and loved it. Staff were amazin and food was great. We got the buffet which was well stalked and amazin

Pizza arrived as if the delivery person had dropped it, she actually slipped it out her hand on arrival and said ooh it’s heavy 🤷‍♀️ then we opened up the pizza it was a disgrace most of the topping was lying on one side of the pizza box with some slices just bare ( photos to prove)the vegetable parkora ooft dry, over cooked, tasteless, with a onion end wedge plus all the sauces were upside down. Absolutely shocking and disgusted. Phoned Gulnar straight away explained about the pizza yes they would send another one out and pick up the de-constructed pizza 🤦‍♀️ pakora went in the bin. The only reason my son got a takeaway out of here was because I was going to treat us to a meal at the restaurant and looked up the reviews yes good and bad gave the place the benefit of doubt so decided to try the takeaway first. Big mistake! Second delivery of pizza arrived and the courier explained that their delivery bags are not strong enough on the bottom and quite flimsy to carry the weight of the orders you order why cut corners on the essential tools to deliver so you get poor results 👎

Had a takeaway dinner last night of a vegetable Korma and vegetable South Indian garlic chilli accompanied with a peshwari naan and garlic naan and vegetable pakora. Everything was top class, and the korma was a delight to the tastebuds, I've never had one so flavoursome. Absolutely first class nosh.

Good quality food. We went for the buffet and was not disappointed with the selection.

Went for the first time. Food was amazing. Staff were lovely. Deffo be back

Stopped over in Falkirk before we headed further up Scotland to the Highlands and Gulnar Tandoori was recommended by our Airbnb host. We definitely were not disappointed! Great Indian and the staff were charming. Would definitely return if we are ever in Falkirk again.

I've been for a meal here quite a few times now. The buffet is good with lots of choice for starters and mains. The service is very good and everyone is very helpful and friendly.

Abysmal service from the Gulnar last night. We waited for well over 1 5 hours. When the food arrive all the food was covered in Korma sauce. I have pictures and have raised my concerns with the Gulnar. I also believe that I was overcharged or they do not provide value for money and will not be using either the restaurant or take away again.

Amazing food ..staff lovely had a great night with girls from work .. wouldn't go past Goulnar 😁

Food was really good apart from getting approached 4 times asking if we were ok, really put me off coming back

Glad we booked, as the restaurant was full, however in saying it was busy, the service was excellent, drink served almost immediately. Staff very friendly and helpful, good selection, quality of the food was top quality, and full of flavour, absolutely first class food, and all at a good price.

Excellent food and friendly atmosphere, great value, recommended 👌

I visit the restaurant i saw your one girl served the drink in the wrong way She did exchange a lots of time same mistake I noticed don't visit again on the gulnar restaurant.workers behave rude and place is too much dirty

Being fairly new to the area, I was on the hunt for a decent local Indian. Decided to try here after a recommendation from a friend and have to say I wasn't disappointed. Fairly priced, excellent food, really excellent, and delivered within the hour. I will definitely be ordering more very soon.

Staff are rude place is dirty. Food is not up to much. This used to be nice year ago

We’ve been to The Gulnar on countless occasions s over the years and it’s never failed at any time…..until this last visit. Wine was nice as was the staters so we were off to a really good start, however, both mains were over cooked and very bland. A real surprise as it’s extremely unusual to be making these comments for this restaurant. The food is normally excellent. Might have been just an off night but we’ll be considering somewhere else for our next Indian meal on the back if this visit.

We’ve never ordered a carry out from this restaurant before, being quite happy with our local Indian place. Unfortunately, on Saturday 17th, our local wasn’t answering the phone, so we thought we’d give this restaurant a try. We decided to play it safe and ordered a Ceylonese chicken korma and a chicken tikka masala. We also ordered pakora to start and a peshwari naan. The pakora was fine, a decent sized portion and the peshwari naan was quite tasty. Unfortunately the main courses were a HUGE disappointment. Both sauces were completely tasteless. The korma had no hint of coconut whatsoever and was watery. To make it even worse, it was really expensive! At least £10 more than our wee local place. Never again. A complete waste of money.

What an absolute gem of a place! The food was great and the staff were all so welcoming and friendly. We ordered a selection of dishes to share amongst all 6 of us and every one was delicious.

lovely restaurant, with great staff and great surroundings, food was delicious

I used to love this place, but I won't be back. Everything was cold, not fresh either. Disappointed as I used to recommend people to go here or get a take away.

I have been coming here for over 30 years now and the food is always absolutely sensational but I must admit they haven’t changed the decor since 1971 the carpet looks like it was used on the floor in Noah’s ark it’s that down trodden also they have this fish tank am sure it’s the same fish been in it since 1981 they really need to spend some money on the place it’s like stepping into a Time Machine also I asked for a extra large Nan bread and they came out with 3 staff members carrying it it must have been the size of a double duvet it was only 7.99 so well worth it but it covered the full table and went over the top of me and my wife’s head so we couldn’t really see what was going on or order any drinks apart from that amazing staff and food.

Went for a takeaway, absolutely fabulous

Just awful. Been going to the Gulnar for many years. 3rd time in a row and the food is disgusting. No resemblance to what the dishes should be or were before. I’ll never order again and that saddens me.

Food ok bit short in chicken and a it overdone

Phoned for a takeaway at 5/20 never arrived till 6/30 the starter was cold 🥶 had to put it in the microwave the main meal was not the best, it will be a long time before we go back 😢

Brilliant staff could do enough for you I think if you asked them to walk on water they give it a go food was great

Went with my partner first time trying here, We went for the buffet. Firstly i was very disappointed on the buffet tables, Not a lot to choose from and food rather bland i don’t eat rice, i asked why chips weren’t on the buffet & was Ignored by a rude waiter. There was 2 large buffet spoons lying in the floor from the curried dishes, sauce from the curried buffet all over the buffet area tables. It was very unhygienic!!! And at £20.40 ahead 👎🏻 Definitely won’t be back & i certainly won’t be recommending this place to any of my Friends & Family

What a fantastic Indian the food is delicious and the service is amazing They do a buffet which is great if you want to try something new

Spur of the moment booking. Warm welcome and invited to partake of the buffet. Lots of choice, all lovely. Staff are wonderful. Great meal. Thanks to all.
