Moonlight Tandoori in Aberdeenshire

Delicious food, attentive staff, pleasant surroundings.

Every dish we ordered was so completely different but all were equally delicious. We had the pathia, the achari, lamb tikka, methi and sag paneer. The serving staff were friendly and attentive. We had a lovely evening.

Delicious food. Fantastic staff. Food is great to eat in (and enjoy the lovely restaurant) or takaway to eat at home. Pricing is competitive. We've eaten from here several times and are never disappointed.

Beware if you order a chicken tikka. The sauce is terrible. Just tastes of coconut no spices or heat and too sweet. Worst curry sauce ever.

Excellent food service is ok great and lively atmosphere

Really fantastic food. There has been an obvious amount of effort and careful trialling to create some very tasty and unique curries. My favourite curry house of all time as the tastes of these curries have a special complexity to them that leave all the others behind with their sameness. Keep producing fantastic food! Your efforts are highly appreciated.

Excellent. Beautiful Food. Will reorder again definatly.

Absolutely amazing food, also the waiter was an absolute G. 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🔈🔈🔈🔈🔥🔥🔥🔥🥶

Excellent service and amazing food

Normally I find Indian food very oily but the food was very well balanced and so delicious! My whole family loved the atmosphere and the service was welcoming!

Only one niggle - we ordered 2 “pickle trays” but only got 1. Not a massive issue, but a nuisance. Didn’t have the time to drive back & get more once we realised.

Food and service were good. The owner however totally messed up our bill and was extremely rude. We explained this and he still didn’t listen and returned with an incorrect bill. When I tried to explain this a third time, he became extremely rude to my wife and I saying “listen to me”. He angrily said this multiple times in front of our friends which upset them as well. Since he had screwed up our bill 3 times, perhaps HE should listen to the customer. This manger was horrible and I would NEVER return.

Excellent food as always ! - One of the best

A real step up from the usual motorway services. Farmshop is great. Cafe wonderful. Excellent place to buy gifts for your visit. Great stop on your journey.

We have lived in the area for over 20 years and since the Moonlight opened we have been regular customers. However in the last 12-18 months the quality of the food has deteriorated. On several occasions we have had wrong items in our order and missing items. The latest order has fallen far short of what was expected and the prices are rising but unfortunately the standards are dropping. Won’t be back.

Paid for poppadoms, didn't get any.

Great food, good service, first time there but would definitely go back...

Went for carry out meal on Saturday night had chicken bhuna which tasted nothing like a chicken bhuna wasn't nice at all .....regularly go to Huntly and Mintlaw which are excellent so won't be going back for carry out any time soon......shame as it is local......

I was dissatisfied with my saagwala. It was tough lamb and the sauce was just different and not what I have experienced before.

One day they will get the order right ... sometimes a refund will not suffice. Shame, food is usually good.

Excellent food and service as usual

Ready on time. Food was good as ever.

These guys are great! The menu is sometimes quite different from the average Indian menu. You can get all the things you like, and other things that you may not have tried. Try it!

The food is delicious and the server was very polite and friendly

Great food. Fantastic staff and service in the town of Turriff. Highly recommended.

Normal really good but tonight was disappointin. Chicken was dry so was the rice, I'm sure it was cooked from the day before.

Food was great and it was ready on time, unfortunately when I got home the nan bread was missing from my order. I phoned to let them know and they give me one next time I order.

Small restaurant situated in the Turriff Town Centre. Have been going for years now and the quality of the food, both takeaway and sit-in is superb. Staff are friendly, welcoming and nothing is too much trouble.

Excellent service and delicious food.

Hmmmm okay at best. I was working in Turriff and googled places to eat and to be fair there weren't many so I decided on my favourite cuisine... Indian and came to this place. There was no one there and I had to walk into the kitchen to get someone's attention to serve me. The waiter was very nice once he came out and my food arrived very quickly. The best bits were my Bombay potatoes and mushroom rice both tasted good however my jalfrezi was pretty bland and I had to put some salt and pepper on it to get any taste. My chicken tikka was very dry and tasted old and the curry was pretty mild for a jalfrezi!! Neither loved or hated it, it was just.... Okay

Ordered two chicken kormas got home only one in bag phoned got another one but had to make trip back to take away which was very annoying

someone collected my food, never got a discount for inconvenience, and they tried to tell me it wasn’t my customer order and that i already picked it up

Ready at collection time - Food 1st class-top notch, as usual – Thank you

Chicken pakora was so overcooked that it was impossible to bite into. The curry was so tasteless and the chilli and garlic rice seemed to be missing the chilli and garlic!!!! And it was very expensive

Amazing service and takeaway food first class

Superb curry! Will definitely be coming back! :)

Amazing as always, on time- good quality and reliable

Fantastic service and our food was gorgeous. Will definitely order from Moonlight again.

Wonderful food as always - full of flavour

Just lovely food, order ready, all I needed for a Sat night 👍

Brilliant food definitely the best curry in a long while even allowing for pandemic. Lovely friendly staff and will return for great Bangladeshi food time and time again. Ten out of ten! Just had another amazing curry two nights ago , what a treat -Fantastic.

First time eating here and really enjoyed it. Friendly staff and great menu. Will definitely be back

First experience wasn’t very good, second was even worse. They completely gave me the wrong order, no apology nothing!! Will not be returning for a third time

Always love my Moonlight curries.

It's our first time ordering from Moonlight, as we've just moved into the area (loving it, by the way!). We're very happy that Turriff has a decent Indian restaurant. The curries all tasted distinctly different and they dared to offer spicy hot dishes! We have often been disappointed because curry houses seem to think that nobody likes challengingly hot curries! Naga Lamb Vindaloo was spicy and nicely balanced between flavour and chilli. I'm sure they could make it a lot hotter of you wanted that! On the mild side, the "Aamm" Curry (mango-based) was a new and lovely flavour which we will have again and Chicken Korma was good but with a little too much coconut for us. We're looking forward to trying other dishes from their interesting-looking menu; quite a lot of unusual dishes, to us anyway. Would recommend!

We have ordered from here a number of times and been very happy. Ordered a King Prawn curry and only had shrimp in it on this occasion which is very odd and no Comms from restaurant to say they didn’t have the king prawns - I may have changed my order otherwise. Tasty but not up to usual standards.

Amazing food will definitely order from here again.

Food amazing as always. Small error with our order which was fixed within minutes and complimentary poppadoms given. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend - one of the best Indian takeaways I have been to.

Excellent would definitely use again

Excellent food, shame they got me naan bread wrong when I had been craving it all day 😬

Once again a brilliant meal and packed full of flavour.

Absolutely lovely, ready at exactly the time they said, food excellent. Will be back 🙂

Vegetarian visiting the area on holiday. Ordered different vegetable dishes, and all tasty.

In Turriff for a couple of nights and the Moonlight restaurant was highly recommended to us by several locals. What a find after a days cycling 👌 The front of house staff were amazing and the service and food was brilliant. The ‘staff’ curry was the best curry I have had and the biryani was to die for. The chef got a high five for preparing this beautiful dishes . Fantastic restaurant and will definitely return next time we are in the area.

Rice missing, only 1 portion of pickle tray when I ordered 2, extra cheese nan which we never ordered. Ridiculous

Arrived to discover our order had been given to someone else. The customer returned with the order and o asked for it to be reheated. The staff led and told me that the returned order was not mine and mine was in the kitchen all along. Shocking behaviour, will not be returning.

Was ready on time and the meals were delicious. Medium was slightly warmer than expected for some diners though - the biriyani vegetable curry certainly has a kick! Will definitely order again - thank you!

It took 3 journeys to finally get my order correct. There was various items missing and they weren’t very apologetic about the situation.

Another great service and food 👍👍

Rice was missing from orde went back to collect no issue.

Moonlight tandoori, easy on my list of favourite indian restaurants. From the curry right down to the poppadoms and the super polite front of house. Will 100% dine here again soon. This place is a credit to indian cuisine!!!

Excellent food, very busy especially with take aways.Lovely serving staff .

Overall the food was lovely as usual. However ordered Chicken tikka balti lahore as have enjoyed it in the past and was so spicy hot I couldn’t eat it, a real shame as a lovely dish when mildly spiced.

Food was great. They need to be mindful of portion control. I expected the tubs to be more than half full for what realistically isn't a cheap meal.

Great food as always. New decor is lovely and friendly helpful staff. Great value.

Another excellent meal tonight.

Best curry in the North East of Scotland really authentic flavours great staff you will not be disappointed

Great food and quick service as always. Never disappoints does Moonlight.Really tasty and spicy dishes were as described. Well done.

Lovely meal but not hot plates or food warmer so went cold quick !

ordered easy enough as usual, collection went fine. Missing the rice dish and when we phoned to explain it wasn't there told we were wrong and it was, also didnt get one of the sides ordered they replaced it with a dish we couldn't eat. So unhappy with those two things but food was meh at best. Won't be returning any time soon.

A group of six we found the staff to be very friendly and tended to all our needs. I had chicken shashlik, best I've had. Others had their own choices and all agreed it was very tasty. Would recommend.

Came on holiday, turns out I also cmae to the greatest Indian restaurant of all time!

Outstanding. Whole family thought it was one of the best Tandoori meals we have ever had. Nice, friendly atmosphere and top quality food.

Nice food, friendly service at pickup but unfortunately some of the order was missing, noticed when dishing up at home so didnt want to travel back down to get. Did phone and inform the restaurant

Fantastic food and service. Highly recommended

Great food and service as always

This place is absolutely amazing.The staff are so friendly.The food is fabulous.Will definitely recommend this amazing restaurant to other people.

Chef said it was great. He has found his home from home restaurant. It is not easy to please Chef but we have done it!

Great food and great Service as always.

Excellent food once I had a curry orther wise I am happy with the food and service

Ordered from here a few times now. Food is always tasty, hot and a good portion size. I have a vegetable vindaloo which is very spicy👌My kids love the sweet pilau rice and chickpeas. The staff are very accommodating and friendly. Would highly recommend👏

Great food and service. My best Indian restaurant. Recommend.

was waiting 15 minutes past collection time for food

Absolutely fantastic food, great size portions and wide selection on the menu, 10/10!!!

Missing items from order and waiting time terrible

Amazing meal, timing was delayed due to obviously being so busy - but well worth the wait!

Stayed in the area for work and took a chance on this place and it was great all the food was tasty and hot couldn't really ask for more. Guys were really friendly as well.

Great meal and great service. The meal was ready on time and the staff were very friendly and efficient.

Lamb wasn’t as tender as I would of liked but everything was delicious & we got 1 extra Nan bread as it was my mums birthday & it had loads of honey, super yummy. Would order again. Yum!

2 orders in 10 days (don’t judge! Haha) and both wring
