Very tasty food and at good value for money! If you like a korma, the chandani is excellent.

Found myself in Thurso for work and came across this place a short walk away from our accommodation. Through my own ignorance as much as anything, I wasn't really sure what standards to expect from an Indian restaurant in the furthest reaches of the country, but we found some excellent food, full of flavour and good portions. Also very reasonably priced. Ended up going on two consecutive nights so I can't really give higher praise than that. The chap who hosted us, who I assume to be the proprietor, was very attentive and made us feel very welcome. Recommended highly.

Very fast and friendly takeaway service however my friend and I ordered butter chicken and chicken tikka which both were bland, the chicken tasted like precooked chicken. We could taste the chicken more than the sauce. The butter chicken tasted like a soup. Veg pakora was bland, didn’t taste like it had any spices. Pakora sauce tasted like a buttery cream with no spice. Spiced onions weren’t spicey. Garlic bread had no evidence of butter or garlic on it and was thick and chewey. The pilau rice was tasteless.

Nice friendly atmosphere. Attentative polite staff. We had starters very good. We had three different curries and they were all of a very good standard and well cooked. Everyone in our party enjoyed the food and we had a good evening. We had a little bit of a wait between courses but the food was cooked from fresh and a cooked perfectly. Definitely worth a return visit.

Didn't call in advance, ordered at the counter and waited. Very quick short wait for my takeaway, the staff taking orders were very helpful, polite and generally great. Food was still nice and toasty hot by the time i got home despite being a 12 mile drive, the food was cooked beautifully, very fresh, very flavoursome, just brilliant, just what i needed for a friday night 👍

Recommended as “the best curry house” by our hotel receptionist. And she wasn’t wrong. Excellent and varied selection of Bengali and more mainstream Indian dishes. Breads in particular were delicious. Will be a firm favourite when travelling the north coast again.

We went twice on a long weekend trip to Thurso. The curry I had was the best I had in a long while…….. fresh, light and not oily. Served with fluffy pilau rice. Service great. Waiter suggested a perfect curry for my taste. Would certainly go back on my next visit to Thurso.

I have now been to this restaurant some 6 times since May 2023. Each time the service has been excellent and the food likewise. The atmosphere is very relaxed and the staff are very welcoming. My curry tastes are in the mild to medium hot range. From the Chicken Passanda and Massala to the Chilli Garlic Palak, the latter being on my 'top limit' for hotness with a fantastic flavour. Highly recommended. I will be back! (again!).

Being an Indian this is the best Indian Restaurant in Thurso. I have been in this restaurant many times now. It’s strange that they serve Biryani’s spice range by 1 - 10. 1 super mild and 10 super hot. I tried number 8 and it was fiery kick along with natural Biryani taste. Loved it. And the service is the best you can get.

We popped in whilst staying locally for work. We had the mushroom & Aubergine Pakora for starters, lamb bhuna, Vegetable Tiger Khan, rice and peshwari Naan. Food tasted lovely and the Tiger Khan was a nice change from what I normally tend to go for. Orange, cashew and garam masala. Good selection of vegetarian dishes at various spice levels. The naan was lovely and fresh. Would definitely visit if we work in the area again. Thanks 👍🏼

On our first night in Thurso we all went to this great restaurant. I like a pretty hot curry and as I have eaten here several times in the past I had my favourite dish being a chicken pathia madras hot. Well it was brilliant as usual lovely and hot with plenty flavour . We were up for the fishing and on our last day we all went back and I had to have the same dish and again it was delicious 😊 My local Indian restaurant The Radhouna has just won the best Indian restaurant award 2023 and I have to say the Pride of Bengal food is equally as good and would give the Radhouna a run for their money. The manager / owner Hassan is so friendly and makes the evening enjoyable. 😊 will be back mid August 😊

Found this nice Indian restaurant whilst working all the way up here and was pleasantly surprised. On first looks the restaurant looked old and dated , I walked in and no one was there to greet us and after shouting out "hello" 3 or 4 times someone came. We weren't expecting much after this but wow the food was very nice and very spicy which we like. The Naan was fresh , my Saag Aloo was really tasty and that was probably the most hot and spicy Jalfrezi I've had in Scotland. My work mate said his madras was also good and he loved the chicken pakoras. It's a very long way from my house but if I'm up here again I'll definitely come back! 👍🏻

Would have been nice if the waiting staff were able to recommend items from the menu. 2 curries were just ok, one was too sweet. Only one out of the three was decent. £70 for an ok meal for 3 people. Thankfully we're only staying in Thurso one night. Edit: We did express concerns after the meal. We were told there's nothing that can be done and that 'i should have asked another waiter for advise on what to choose from the menu' despite another waitress taking my order. Then either have all waiting staff knowledgable about the dishes to be able to recommend or point customers at more knowledgable waiters.

We have ordered takeaway from this establishment on several occasions and never fails to disappoint. Collection from the store itself is quick and convenient, and delivery is good as well despite some occasions where the delivery time was significantly longer than mentioned and some items had became missing from the order. Food in general is satisfactory. The Chicken Pakora starter is flavourful and warm, Poppadoms are fresh and crisp, Rice is delicate and smooth and goes well with a seasoning of salt, and some of the Chicken and Curry Mains have the correct amount of spice and balance. A decent good value Indian Takeaway for the Culloden area.
