Handi in Fife

Got take out. Was charged £10 more than we were told on the phone when ordering. Not worth £33 for 2 main standard meals. Not particularly fab meal either. For £23 you get so much more at another local restaurant and its much better. First time there in a long time. Won't be back. To the person who responded. Please be assured the quality I get elsewhere is superior to you. Perhaps it would have been better if you had been open and transparent. Inappropriate service, response and communication

Excellent place for high quality Indian food, very well looked after, the Thali is excellent

Very nice restaurant, big portions very delicious food and good service.

Food and service were excellent. First time we've been here, but we will definitely return.

Was passing through First time tried it .was really good

Cheap food.. Fast delivery 5 star

Always a great atmosphere/ service and food is always beautiful

Lovely restaurant. Friendly staff and food is always delicious wether takeaway or eat in.

Really nice, well hidden gem. Food was really nice.

Love meeting my old work colleague here. Great location, great food and great service. No complaints.

The chicken 65 is decent but the sticky/soggy batter is definitely not to my liking at all Good garlic naan good pilau rice (not difficult) Chicken tikka jalfrezi was tasty but very little "tikka" presence about the chicken, the onion and pepper in the dish was basically raw and had definitely not been even partially cooked. £24.25 for a pretty poor starter and main, nowhere near approaching value for money

Amazing Indian restaurant 😋 Enjoyed three fantastic meals there over the past 5 years. Yesterday we travelled over 100 miles just to eat there. Superb quality food 👌

Had a family meal here following several recommendations. Great food and service. Only dropping a star due to the drink prices.

Friendly staff and food okay but not the best.

I had been meaning to visit for a while, and got a takeaway of 2 curries, rice and a nann = £30. The curries tasted quite good but not amazing. My issue was paying £11 for a slightly small container full, quite poor value for money. I might try the restaurant, it looks quite nice, and there are some interesting things on the menu, but I wouldn't get a takeaway here again.

One of the best indian Restaurants nearby. Go and must try.

Such a wide range of unfamiliar dishes on the menu I didn't know what to choose. My fish pakoras were light as a feather and my lamb bhuna ghost was splendid, having asked for it to be not too spicy. The paratha was just right. Enough to take some home as well. Can't wait to come back to try some of the other dishes. The waiting staff were all very helpful and friendly. Prices reasonable too. Love it.

Very good food and friendly efficient service,would recommend to all

I enjoyed the handi. The starter was superb. Chicken 65. The main naga chicken was nice, iv had better, but it was still nice. No complaints really I'd certainly go again.

If you fancy authentic Indian food in the middle of Scotland, and you are on your way to St Andrews or Edinburgh or anywhere in that direction, this slight detour is well worth making.

One of the best Indians in Scotland

I am convinced that the food I had in this restaurant was the worst Iv had in Scotland I’m sharing to save others disappointment The fish pakora was a dried up fish finger with a spoon full of shredded lettuce 😩 The main was full of stringy chicken with what I thought was chicken skin in it To give a bit of balance my partner did like her lamb dish but shared my opinion on the fish pakora Overall I could have spent my £40 a lot better Disgruntled ex customer

Having moved from London, we were spoiled for choice for food , finding a good Indian restaurant is not always easy in Scotland however Handi `s is a little Gem

Find this via Google after playing golf. Great wee find. Fresh produce, no food colourings, bags of flavour. Staff were great too, very considerate and passionate about their food.

Lovely meal, great service, quiet atmosphere.

Friendly staff and the food is always amazing.

Delicious meal. Will definitely be back.

Always excellent food and great service.

Great food, pleasant and professional staff. Recommended.

My trip was very disappointing. My husband, friends and family have all been to Handi before and have loved it. Today was my first and last visit unfortunately. The start of our meal was great. We both thoroughly enjoyed our starters of Chilli Calamari and onion bahjis. They were well cooked and tasty. It sadly went downhill from there. Our main meals arrived and we then waited almost 5 minutes for our naan bread to arrive. We waited patiently only to be disappointed. My chicken was on the pink side. It might just be me being fussy buy I don't want to see pink on any of my chicken bits. I really, really dislike complaining but I told the waiter I couldn't eat my meal, as in my opinion it wasn't cooked properly. Off he went with my plate and someone else reappeared with my plate some 5 minutes later. During this time, I got to watch my husband eat his dinner. When my plate returned, it had the previously cut pieces of chicken on it, showing signs of pink chicken. The gentleman explained that they cook the chicken on the skewer and its temperature tested. So it's good to eat. He eventually offered to make a new plate. By which time my husband would be finished. I kindly declined and explained that I couldn't eat the chicken. I was left with the cold plate with pink bits of chicken and away he went laughing at me. Then bill arrived and I had to pay for the meal that wasn't eaten. The restaurant was busy, waiters were minimum and I left feeling embarrassed. Tables beside had obviously overheard the conversations. Overall, it was a poor experience and poor customer service. I should never had the dirty plate left in front of me for a start. I won't be back.

Great service and food was amazing really quick with orders and drinks for a party of 8

Have been here for both sit in and takeaway, both were fantastic with friendly staff. The review today is based on takeaway lamb Korma and garlic naan bread which was devious, lamb very tender and flavours great, sometimes Korma becomes bland but there was a lot of flavour. The garlic naan was excellent tasted of fresh garlic more than the bright green naan breads you see in other places. Overall highly recomend

Came here last night with my partner and brother and the food was delicious as always. Friendly staff, great food and very clean. We’re regulars now. Lovely

I was not that impressed with the service, they got the drinks wrong and you can't get a glass of water to yourself they just insist it's for the whole table even if you ask for a pint of water when they ask what you want to drink, I don't like that they don't tell you how spicy hot the food is on the menu.

Really enjoyed it. Amritsar still shades it for me but food n service brilliant n defo be back.

Great food super friendly staff. 😋

First time at Handi, and I had a lovely time. Celebrating my dad's new job and the food was bursting with flavour and spice. The atmosphere in the restaurant was lovely. Most polite and tentative service. Would highly recommend a visit.

It was ok. Not brilliant, but not bad.

Always superb food at Handi. Servers a superb too.

Top Authentic Indian restaurant We travel all the way from Edinburgh to enjoy Indian food at Handi. We love their authentic and traditional cooking, kids really enjoyed their food and desserts. I personally recommend trying murgh malai chicken, the best. Naan and gravy are really good and freshly prepared. Their beer and wine selection was very good. Staffs were friendly and helpful. Worth travelling to Glenrothes to enjoy this food.

I was underwhelmed. Ordered 2 different curries but they both tasted the same, rice wasn't great, salad was a small tub of lettuce. Naan didn't seem cooked, it was doughy and small.

Good food, though not the biggest of portions. Almost all of the desserts were unavailable. Service was a little on the slow side. The Peshawari nan bread was very good!

Yet another fabulous meal. Service: Fast and efficient, drinks were offered as we sat down. Staff: Courteous and professional Food: Brilliant food, amazing flavours and piping hot. Price: 2 courses for 4 people with drinks, under £100. Overall: Definitely recommend for an Induan meal.

Excellent food and excellent service from the waiters, very attentive. Food was brought out quickly and hot. With a free appetizer when we sat down. A choice of good desserts too. Normal price for a good Indian, and the decor and atmosphere were good. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic staff and perfect food.

Amazing food, amazing service, amazing staff! We have been coming here for many years and the Handi has always been fantastic.

Friendly staff, nice food and comfy chairs!

My husband and I have just finished our Indian takeaway from Handi Restaurant. Genuinely the best Indian meal we have eaten for MONTHS! Absolutely delicious 😋 😋😋

Food was excellent, best I've tasted in ages. Staff were lovely too, nice place/decor 👍

A big improvement on previous incarnation of this restaurant. Food really good and served to table piping hot. Staff friendly and informative. I'll be back.

Great food, big portions. Almost up to the standard of Manchester!

Two stars are for the bread and the rice! Ordered takeaway for the family last night and at the price of £9.50 for a curry dish it was an expensive take away for 7. Completely justified if the food had been of a high quality. It’s not so it felt like an extravagant rip off. Lots of runny sauce consisting of a handful of meat or small pieces of paneer. It was not good chicken either, my partner had to spit out gristle. This place used to be amazing, we’ve been going for take away there years. It was rank and they should be ashamed to serve it. Corner cutting and below par. Avoid sadly.

Love the food, can't fault the service, friendly staff and a relaxed atmosphere.

Naga chicken was amazing. Thank you!

Visited here for a birthday meal, there were 15 of us, everyone enjoyed the night,The food was spot on. We were given plenty time to enjoy the evening at our own pace. Would recommend visiting here.

Phoned around quite a few Indians in Glenrothes and Handi was the only one that offered/could be bothered to tell me what vegan options were available. Really appreciated this - food was brilliant. Highly recommended!

Great modern twist on classic dishes. Service was great. Please try

Starters are best I have had in years, main was ok, service great, would happily recommend

Great food, very helpful staff. Definitely use again.

Really good food and friendly service too. Meal out with friends. Didn't disappoint.

Staff are good and food is consistently fantastic. I come here for true authentic Indian flavours. Been here many times over the years now and have never left dissatisfied. The premises are clean and decor is nice too. There are plenty of tables so it's never been a struggle, for me anyway, to get one last minute. We are always presented with a lovely Amuse-Bouche prior to getting stuck into the starter or main. The Poppadoms are good and the pickle tray that comes with it is delicious . Make sure you ask for the pickle tray when ordering Poppadoms, as it's not assumed you want it also. To me this is a given, but that's my opinion. The server's know the food as well as the chef and are happy to educate you on what you're eating in a little more depth, and even sometimes the origins of the dish which I find informative and interesting. Ask and you shall find out. Overall I highly recommend this place and for me it's in my top 3 best Indian restaurants in Fife. I do wish they had Vindaloo or a Phal on the menu though 😉 Regardless, chefs are happy to make a dish a bit spicier for the heat craving fanatics like myself!

We had two times a very pleasant diner with good food. Very nice people.

I hate the fact I live 350 miles away from this restaurant! Staff, Service, food and the ambience all 10 out of 10. It is a superb Indian restaurant. Highly recommend paying it a visit.

Delicious food and great service

Très déçu, je ne comprends pas les commentaires dithyrambiques. Qualité n'est pas au rdv. La viande est de piètre qualité, les naans sont lourds et pas du tout soufflé. Passez votre chemin

Lovely place .. reasonably price food was delicious staff were very efficient

Friendly staff All tables were clean and cleared asp Meals were good Ample portions Price average not to expense

Good choice food was really good friendly staff

Excellent food but very busy and long wait for service.

Meal was amazingly delicious. Staff 100% for care, consideration and attentiveness. Can't wait to go back.

Was here in Sept. Food was fabo. Returned a couple of weeks ago, cooks must have changed, sauces were claggy and overly salted. A disappointment by comparison. Will return next year for one final assessment, probably only for lunch though.

Takeaway doesn't seem to match the restaurant reviews.Feels like they are cutting corners and delivering a second rate deal. Ok good points rice,dhal vegetable curry. Bad veg.pakora dry , chips old cold and stale ,both of these I would have returned in the restaurant.Need to improve and not give takeaway customers a second rate experience.

Excellent food and service. Highly recommended

Friendly local restaurant with some amazing Indian food. Would certainly recommend.

Food is excellent with decent portions and has good value for money.

Unbelievably good and well worth the drive from Dundee

Extremely disappointed food was very bland for one main dish and the other was not as stated on menu - chicken tikka, very sweet and chicken pink. Will not be returning and sorry wont recommend

First time to Handi last night and will definitely be back. Food was fantastic and the customer service was excellent. Would definitely recommend to family and friends. And thank you for the cake for my wife's birthday 😁😁

Food all the same we ordered buhna, & Korma all chicken dishes, same sauce in both.. chicken pakora dry and batter not nice.. chips awful , Nan bread stone cold seriously !!

More expensive than local indian restaurant but worth it !! Food refined and really nice. Would recommend it. Great service.

No idea why this place is so highly rated. In the area for a short stay and it seemed like a good place for a curry. Starters were OK but the mains were terrible. Everything had a bad taste of fake garlic. The chicken in the curry had the weirdest texture of anything I've ever eaten. Clearly very cheap chicken, if it even was chicken. Naan bread was very small and too crispy. We asked to have chicken tikka in one of the currys rather than plain chicken but were told its not possible. Can't understand why, unless the food is pre-prepared. Have given 2 stars due to the starters which clearly used different chicken to the chicken that was in the currys. The starters tasted and had the texture of chicken and we're tasty enough. Really wouldn't recommend this place though.

Good food, good service. First visit for sister's birthday. Will be back.

Amazing food. Always worth a wait if they are busy.

Delicious range of authentic Indian dishes. Great menu and nice atmosphere. Good price also!

Fabulous tasting food and awesome table service, staff are wonderful, didn't have to wait long for each serving

Fab place great staff and food As always fab

Great hotel and price . Staff excellent hopefully see you all again next year . Special thanks to Angela x

Place with rich taste of indian food with really very nice service and polite staff. A must visit place for one in Glenrothes.

The service was excellent and the he food was very good. The chef kindly made my Husband's Tikka a bit milder. I would recommend this restaurant.

Good food , only thing was took a while after food was ordered .

Absolutely amazing. Massive starter portions kalamari enough to fill 2.. Fabulous flavourful food. Best ever garlic Nan. Will definitely be back regularly. Highly recommended, glad to have received the recommendation. Full restaurant at an expected quiet time says Everything. Want to go back again thinking about it 😋

Food fresh and tasty. And customer service excellent.

Nice people working there, looked professional, wasn't too expensive and the food was good. Giving 4 stars because a 5 star would need to amaze me beyond words. Nice place though.

These guys obvious care about what they do and the taste a flavours were fantastic with a great varied menu selection one of the best Indians I've ever had 👍

5 star food 5 star service Best Indian food in fife imo

The staff were delightful and service was good as was the food.

Amazing food and service. The nicest vegetable pakora I've ever had

First class meal first class service restaurant was a bit cold though but trip well worth taking certainly will not be the last visit

Fantastic great service helpful friendly and good value

Only Indian restaurant I have been to in the area so cannot compare but the food is definitely top notch. Good service
