Koh-I-Noor in Renfrewshire

Food was very good and ably served by a friendly team. There weren't many in which meant atmosphere was down but that shouldn't stop you going. The location doesn't wow but its set in a lovely old period building. Through the main door, a downstairs relaxation area with a pool table! Then up a sweeping dextral stair to to the main dining area....which is large yet retains a sense of intimacy. Then sit down and enjoy the service...

We visited on a Tuesday night after work, around 5.45pm. We parked our cars in the car park at the rear of the restaurant and I thought.........mmmm, dodgy looking joint. We were shown to our table by really friendly staff. We ordered the set menu choice, £15.95 for 2 courses. We decided on veg pakora and popadoms with spiced onions. We shared both starters. One of us had chicken jaipuri and I chose chicken dopiaza, both with fried rice and a plain nan. All the choices werefresh, tasty and plentiful for the both of us. Washed down with cokes, as we were both driving, the bill with tip was £46.00. Great staff, great food, good value....in a dodgy building...lol We both gave it 8 out of 10.

place is always amazing just tastes quality

Very dissapointed in chicken pakora, really doughy, batter was falling off away from chicken. 1 piece was all wet batter. Ev else was nice.

First time I’ve ever been disappointed. Chicken chaat half the portion it used to be and the seekh kebab starter was stone cold when it arrived

Lovely curry’s! The potion of rice was unbelievably huge. Enough for three people. I suggest you cut the potion size.

Visit: Sunday evening for dining-in. My family and I had a wonderful dining experience at Koh-i-noor in Paisley. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality. The staff went above and beyond, especially in accommodating and engaging with our young boys. They were incredibly patient, taking the time to explain the menu and specials in detail, which we really appreciated. The food was of excellent quality, with each dish full of authentic flavors and perfectly cooked. The restaurant's interior was comfortable and inviting, making it a great place to relax and enjoy our meal. The table service was professional and attentive throughout our visit. Overall, Koh-i-noor provided us with a memorable dining experience, and we will definitely be returning. Highly recommended!

Nice food / service.. Decor could do with some work as the toilets, however food was good. Will be back again for the buffet

Grand in its heyday, the downstairs bar is never used and the pool table is an ornament. The place is struggling a bit now I feel.

As an older couple with health issues, we don't get out now. We used to visit here few years ago. The food was amazing. We ordered tonight for the football game. Home delivery the food is the best in Paisley. We have ordered a few times since we moved house always been overwhelmed by the quality of the food and cooking. Being older I can only ma age small meals and ask for extra almonds. Tonight I was given a small bag of rice complimentary as a full bag is too much for me to eat. The delivery drivers are sometimes the staff, they are so polite and tidy with lovely manners. I would highly recommend The Koh-i noor to anyone looking for great service, fantastic food. It's not far from the airport and train station or locally in the town. Give it a try you won't be disappointed. Thankful customer 🙏.

Meal was piping hot and absolutely delicious thanks

The curry was very nice, chips cheese and curry sauce was nice, the chicken pakora was not very nice the batter was very soggy. First time using this restaurant and it will definitely be the last time, plus it was late delivery.

This Restaurant is amazing The food is incredible The surroundings are beautiful The staff are brilliant and nothing is too much trouble Do NOT miss this place 😋

Came here for a quick dinner and wanted something close to the airport hotel. Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and service. The curry was delicious and naan fresh and soft! Recommend it !!

it was a game of hunt the lamb I'm afraid. not what I'd expect from this restaurant

Fantastic food the best indian food in glasgow. The buffet on a Saturday and Sunday is exceptionally good, and the service was faultless!! Highly recommended cant wait to return once again.

Absolutely delicious, great restaurant/take-away. Really friendly. Brilliant

Excellent Lamb Karahi with rice. Please add as choice for Special and Set meals. Would have liked to order as special/set meal. Please open an Aberdeen and Norwich branch!

Got a delivery top quality food and so fresh real star restaurant food and delivery person was so nice been years since I tasted food like that I will definitely be ordering again

Ordered 2 plain nann, everything was great can’t fault them usually but one of the nann bread had an awful taste of coconut and there was almond in it aswell which for me couldn’t eat it. Unfortunate

Best Indian in Paisley - been a customer for over 30 years now

usually love these but really disappointed tonight, no veg pakora it was all cauliflower and mushroom!

I have loved the food from here for many years but tonight was horrible! The pakora was way too spicy, not normal for this restaurant and the chicken chat was also too spicy and very very salty! We couldn't eat either of the 2! That's the second time in a row that the food has been inedible from here and sorry to say that that will be the last time! Very disappointing!

Small selection however the focus is on quality not quantity. Fresh and high quality food. Highly recommend.

Food was nice and spicy but when you order poppodoms and spiced onions, you expect to get what you paid for instead of 1 smashed up at the bottom of the bag and currys had leaked over the bag but tasted good overall

our order was wrong we ordered a lamb dish and a chicken dish but both dishes that came were chicken and also the wrong type of curries, very disappointed most went in the bin

Part of the order missing. Ordered 2 poppadoms, only got one. Not a massive deal but still disappointing when paying £30.

Amazing curries wouldn’t go anywhere else

I usually love the food from here but the lamb tikka starter was extremely salty and couldn't eat it! It won't stop me from ordering in the future though as I love this restaurant!

Delicious food and great service

don't know why I've never ordered from here before. I always heard it was nice and they didn't fail this time either the food was absolutely beautiful my new favourite restaurant

Best Indian food in Paisley! Highly reccomend

Great food Great service Haven't been for 30 years I was celebrating good news from hospital Thanks to everyone at This excellent restaurant

I love the food from here! The best Indian food in Paisley in my opinion! They usually deliver earlier than estimated! The portion sizes are amazing too!

Ordered whilst staying at the airport. Food was lovely and there was plenty of it. Delivery driver very friendly, just feel bad in this day and age I never seen to have change for a tip. Will definitely use again if I’m in the area.

Great service, delicious food and great portion size

Got a chicken korma and it was spicy. Which isn’t supposed to be. Plus the two curries were extremely watery and we ended up with our food swimming in water. The only thing we really enjoyed was the vegetable pakora.

Very quick service and delicious food

Never fails to disappoint, great place for a curry.

Best Indian meal - consistently - and another fantastic dining experience at the Koh-I-Noor in Paisley. I moved from Glasgow to Paisley around 22 years ago and since then have occasionally visited this special place. Like I said to the owner during my recent, impromptu visit (23/12/23) I've never had a sub-standard meal or dining experience here - not once - in that time. Every time I've eaten here I've greatly enjoyed the food, no matter what I've chosen from their menu. My utmost compliments to the chef. Chicken Tikka Masander, fried rice. Peshwara nan. Chicken Tikka Massaledar, fried rice, Peshwara nan. Can I just add as a footnote - and I am a genuine customer - anyone offering a '1-star' review for this restaurant - especially after having apparently dined here previously - is either bogus or has a malicious sense of righteousness. That type of dodgy reviewer would be cutting-off their nose to spite their face, for they'll surely exclude themselves from a truly wonderful dining experience served by exceptional, mannerly and professional staff? My name is Kenny. I have no affiliation with the restaurant, and am neither familiar with or on first-name terms with the proprietors or the staff. I simply appreciate excellent food in cosy, pleasant and friendly surroundings. Top-marks, Koh-I-Noor!

Good food and good friendly service

A really good buffet. The staff are great, friendly and efficient.

This is my go to Indian restaurant for takeaway as its always nice. Ordered a chicken tikka karahi tonight but when I got home and ate it, it was far too spicy and we didnt enjoy it all because of this. Its not normally like that so not sure what happened 😔

Love this Indian Resturant...I live in Lancaster and always come here when I visit my sister...

Food brilliant staff brilliant a place to go for good food

I have been visiting the Koi I Noir for decades now and it's still very good. Recently visited on a Saturday for the buffet. The staff are always so friendly. The starter platter was fresh and plentiful in choice. The buffet selection was good and again, very fresh. The restaurant itself hasn't changed much in the near 30 years I have been visiting but it is still a very pleasant comfortable dining experience.

Love this place. Always a decent curry and never an expensive bill

Dinner was so nice, relaxed atmosphere with no rush for the bill etc Portion size was good and the service was friendly.

Fantastic food, variety of choices whether it be buffet or set course, friendly staff the building itself is historical, value for money, eat in or takeaway ...

Best curry available superb restaurant

Having had a great xmas meal here and a recent carry out we decided to go for my usual of fish pakora as Im not a fan of re fried chicken pakora, we cooked our own chicken and got a large south indian sauce and a jaipuri sauce. We included onion rings and naan bread. To my major disappointment the onion rings arrived in a soggy batter as did the fish pakora, I tried a couple of pieces but the majority went to the birds. I thought my night couldnt get any worse until I tried the south indian sauce, I asked my wif to try it as she has a preference for additional salt, her description of "I think somebody spilled a kilo of salt in that" summed up my own thoughts of excessive salt, I couldnt eat it and it went down the drain. The naan was ok as was the jaipuri sauce, the koh i noor had a bad day, either that or they have changed the cook, with quality like that many will do like me - not in a hurry to go back, these reviews are helpful, if you dont know you cant fix it

We have never been disappointed with a visit, service is always friendly, food was very good and reasonable prices for food and drinks

Last night four of us attended this restaurant for dinner, we arrived early and it was empty and then as the time went on it did get busier. Service was attentive and prompt with drinks and our food. The Mushrooms in Sauce was well presented and very tasty, however we found the vegetable pakora stodgy, we prefer them light and tasty! The mains came all well presented, warm and very tasty. Worth a visit if you are in the area, certainly one of the better Indian restaurants in the area!

The Chasni and the Chaat are my go to when i order from here. I have never actually been in for a meal here so that's something i need to address but for a delivery it is absolutely spot on

Excellent food has been a while since I've been here but will be back

Been there several times. Quality is very good. Don't let the outside scare you off.

Good food in a nice environment, the chasni was superb and the chef’s special sweet and sour chicken was dynamite but the korma and the South Indian garlic chilli chicken was pretty average, first time I’ve been so not sure if it’s generally hit or miss or was this a one off? But definitely would go back and go for the buffet if you visit at the weekend!

Classic Indian restaurant with the friendliest staff spacious seating and great service

As a foodie I was looking forward to this xmas buffet, the title says it all, I tried all the dishes, first class food, service and very friendly staff Good value to at £30ph delicious fresh food, no wonder it was very busy, great time, will add it to my favourites

Always a great meal here. Great staff, fast service. Have came for years, do miss the buffet as now only on weekends, so wasnt able to use over the festive period when we visited

Myself and three friends visited 19/12/22 for our annual Christmas curry. As it was a Monday, the place was quiet and there was no buffet, but the normal menu had plenty of options. The food, I have to say, truly was absolutely delicious; the Balti I had was the best ever and the orange sorbet for dessert (inside the skin of an orange) was incredibly refreshing. The service was also excellent. Highly recommended.

Great for large groups, always amazing food.

Excellent buffet, quality food and service, will be back !

My hubby & myself visited this beautiful restaurant for our Anniversary on Saturday night at 6 pm on 19/11/2022 We both wanted to try the Buffett as lots to pick from plus it’s reasonably priced too The place is spotless the staff were all clean & smart dressed and very polite & helpful.We tried everything that was there it all tasted delicious especially that delicious dish they gave you along with the starters I had to ask what it was as it tasted delicious the girl says it was garlic and mushrooms. We both really enjoyed it and we will definitely be back we were both full up myself I was that full I came home lay on my bed & fell asleep for hours & now I’ve been wide awake since 3am ha ha ha Sorry I’ve no pics to post we were too busy eating the delicious food every single thing was gorgeous So anyone that’s not tried this beautiful establishment you definitely won’t be disappointed foods gorgeous & most importantly it’s spotless so are all the staff they were clean tidy & so polite too We will be back soon Thanking you all for a lovely wee night at your beautiful restaurant we really enjoyed all the food everything was perfect. From Maggie & Brian

Waited over an hour for a hom delivery and they failed to provide pakora sauce with the pakora sauce.

Nice place for a curry & Indian food, went here with several people & staff done well to sit us all at 1 large table & accommodate us, food was spot on, staff were nice , would go back

Would recommend the buffet option on a Friday and Saturday. Started off with pompadoms and spiced onion, then a large mixed pakora with garlic mushrooms. Good variety main courses and a large selection of sweets from the refrigerated cabinet. You can get extra pompadoms and mixed pakora at no extra cost. Staff are very polite and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Love this place and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone. I have been a regular for years and found it great value for money and one of the best Indian restaurants in Paisley.

Takeaway was disappointingly salty. Spiced onions were a very small portion. Not really worth the bother. Prob best to stick to their buffet.

Welcome and good taste upstairs.

Lovely experience at the restaurant! Staff was very nice with our little kids.

The last time we visited was 2009 it was excellent then and the food is still brilliant now. We visited the buffet on a Saturday night. It was very busy and we had booked a table in advance. We only had a few minutes to wait. There was a good selection of starters, main courses and desserts. It was a pleasant evening with very enjoyable food. We will certainly visit again.

I have been using this fabulous Indian restaurant's delivery service for twenty years. In all this time I have never been disappointed with anything I've ordered. The food is of the highest quality. I think I've worked my way through the menu now, last night I had the most beautiful lamb curry with fried rice and a beautiful nan bread. Please use this restaurant, you wont be disappointed.

Loved the way they serve your starters,plenty of it too.main meal was delicious we went for the buffet,staff was very polite. We would go back..

Very good service, food was amazing, me, my daughter, my husband really enjoyed there. Staff ws really polite and friendly, which is I love that. I would be definitely to go back for dinner again.

The food is amazing and the staff are the kindest it’s my favourite restaurant I 100% recommend it

My friends and I have been doing our birthday curry’s for many years

Great flavors. Good service, good advice Very fair price.

Delicious food, nice atmosphere. Staff v friendly and great service!

Been coming here for 10 years and it was the first place my now fiancé and I had our first date! The food is always ten out out of ten and the staff are unreal!

This restaurant is in a fairly run down location but very professionally run, very clean , attractive and spacious. Easy parking. Brilliant food, the best Indian food we've had for ages. Really good selection of starters and curries and accompaniments. Very good value for money. We had a great meal. The restaurant was very quiet when we were there but it was a shame as it was so well laid out and ready for people. We had the best pakora and poppadoms and onion bajis ever. Highly recommended, but I think no lift, and main toilets downstairs so check with staff beforehand if mobility is a problem.

Most enjoyable. Good size portions and staff attentive.

Been coming from Kilmarnock to the koh-I-noor for years and the food is always delicious and consistent and lovely staff

This is without doubt the best indian restaurant around Paisley area fabulous staff and great menu I never get reflux ever

Excellent food and very friendly service.

Never had a bad experience in the kohi Noor . Lovely staff .best Indian food in Paisley .

Best Indian restaurant in paisley by far . Been coming for years

Good meal had from menu starters and mains piping hot always good staff

it’s took me 7 years to visit and I’m so glad i did. the staff, the food and atmosphere was amazing. would definitely go back and recommend to others

Food great service Fantastic 👌👍👌

Very good taste. Wonderful place to have authentic Indian food. The staff were really friendly and helpful.

Just been out for a meal for first time in a while. Great food and service. Loved the sizzling platter to start and Chicken Balti (hot) for a bit of a kick. Would highly recommend 👌

First class taste 👌 sit in dining tonight. We had Veg Bhoona and Chicken Tikka Karahi after the mixed platter. Really impressed 👏

Food great and always good friendly service from staff

Visited for the first time in over a year (due to lockdowns etc) with my friend from Manchester. I can honestly say it was perfection from start to finish. We both had the buffet, everything was fresh & exceptionally tasty. My friend who has eaten in many of the Manchester curry houses also said it was "hands down" the best curry he has ever had & is desperate to come back for a visit, not to see me but to go back to the Koh I Noor 😁. Highly recommend a visit.

Best Indian restaurant/takeaway in the town.

Just love the Koh I noor .... Great staff great Indian food great surroundings aaaaand value for money ... thanks for another great night and we missed you!😁

Excellent quality of food, services & cost

Curry at its' best. Great venue plenty of space and the good is superb. Being a hot curry fan, I wasn't disappointed. Highly recommended.

Food is smazing and service as always impecable

We throughly enjoyed our visit here. There was 6 of us including a child in our party. The staff were great and really helpful, giving us recommendations on what to pick. The food was excellent and really tasty, the Chicken Chasni, Chicken Karahi and Peshwari naan were delicious. We were well looked after and recommend visiting here.
