Royal Tiger in Moray

Being a Saturday night both restaurant and takeaway were busy, but, despite being short staffed we were served quite quickly to perhaps one of the tastiest meals we've enjoyed in ages. We went for the " set meal for two option " which was a great choice. We were even allowed to alter a couple of items to suit our tastes. Thankyou and we will return soon.

This restaurant is permanently closed now. I assume COVID did for it. Drove past yesterday, all of the furniture is gone and the property appears to be for lease. Shame too...

Went to royal tiger Indian restaurant in Cullen just to find it closed. Website said open Sunday and Monday, but it wasn't.

I loved this Chinese shop the chips rice and curry sauce is my favorite definitely go back my family tried different things and they liked it as well very tasty food

So fed up. No problem with the food but aware that they don’t stick to the opening hours so always phone ahead to check on closing. Once again tried to place an order 40 minutes before they said they were closing and they’re shut. Local Chinese won’t do that so we will go there instead.

Just had chicken madras and chicken bhuna, soooo good, never been let down by quality or quantity!RECOMMEND for sure,

Find this takeaway very hit or miss. Sometimes really, really good, and the next time you would not believe its from the same place. Sometimes the chicken can be very sparse or chewy and almost inedible. Next time its lovely. Don't know if they try and cut costs by buying cheaper ingredients but going by the other reviews this might be an issue. Then you go back next time and its different altogether. Really hit or miss.

We had a takeaway on are last night in Cullen but wish we had tried it sooner out standing value for what you got could not fault anything this was in June this year So just to say a big thank you guys.

Staying in Cullen for the week I refuse to cook, so takeaway it is, 4 out of the 7 nights we had a curry from the Royal Tiger. Staff were really helpful & friendly, it was nice to be greeted like friends when we came back the following nights. Staff extremely knowledgeable in helping us pick a new curry. Currys were so delicious that we even bought one to take home for after our holiday.

Had lovely meal here again. Mixed platter starter for 2 is ample for 4. Main courses all very good. Staff all very friendly and helpful. Will definitely return. Great value.

We we come to Cullen our children insist on Pizza from the Royal Tiger.... they plan which night of the holiday they are having it. Service is lovely- we phone our order in and collect in 20 minutes. Great staff, great pizza. We esp love the dip for the crusts....!

We had a lovely dinner, food was very good and the waiter was very polite and friendly.. we go there every time we are in Cullen and every time we are never disappointed! Thank you!

We had the Thursday night special for under £12 and found it more than enough for both of us. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff as always were very friendly. A great takeaway and there are also seats for eating in. You will need to take your own alcoholic drinks.

I order chicken tikka masala and Tiger chicken Garlic rice. Garlic cheese Nan the food is yummy×××××××××

So I am working away from home and I decide to go and have a bite to eat here! I am greeted with are you wanting takeaway? I say no as o had your donned meat kebab the night because abd it was dried up microwaveable crap!!!!! But others told me of you eat in it’s better so I decide to order a job alcoholic beer which I was so shocked at how he poured it when it came to the table then after the starter I thought it was time to leave after his discusting behaviour after I questioned him about his drink which he served me was SOUR!!! To this I got GET OUT MY RESTAURANT I DONT NEED CUSTOMER WHO ONLY EATS A STARTER!! IF I KNOW YOU ONLY EAT STARTER I DONT LET YOU EAT IN HERE!!! COME HERE PAY ME YOUR BILL NOW AND GET OUT IF YOU DONT ORDER MAIN COURSE!!!! Well to this, and luckily enough there was someone else who saw his behaviour who came to me and said he was discusted to see him speak to a customer like that!!! Well all I can say is there’s no wonder your dead every night with that attitude!!! Discusting to say the least!!!!

I ordered a dinner wrap which was little more than awful and got binned was microwaved donner meat dryed cardboard would be more appetising. And also a chicken and vegetable pizza which looked and sounded good as I asked for no pineapple but that request was ignored as it’s premade mix of vegetables and pineapple along with a shop bought pizza base which was as dry it was inedible and to be expected to pay £15.90 for this farce of a meal utter joke

So visited this place for a takeaway whilst staying in Seatown. The cost was a shock with it being over £60 for 4 curries with rice. It’s the rice that makes it stack up at £3.95 each!

After an 8 hour drive it was useful to have this on the door step. The food we ordered was fantastic. Ready in 15 minutes. You can also eat in as there are a number of tables to eat at. The restaurant was very clean. Our only downside was the price. Main meal prices were charged at restaurant rates even though we had take away. It would have been rated 5 if price was more reasonable. We will go again before we home.

restaurant was clean and tidy, staff were friendly and helpful however the food was awful! Bland and tastelss, tikka masala had hardly any chicken and was mostly just sauce with a weird texture, daughter binned it and had a frozen curry from lidl instead! chicken pakora were tiny, dry and tasteless, veg pakora were just fried onion. rice was edible, curries were like chicken caserole, no flavour or spice. naan bread was undercooked. best bit was the pakora and spicy onions, hard to go wrong there really!

No small scots town would be complete without its own ethnic restuarent and this is a relatively new addition where new ventures struggle.They are Bengaladeshi and offer the usual enormous range of choices served efficiently on linen dinning table including wine glasses although it is BYOB

Went in last Friday night for a pre-ordered Chicken Tika Masaka and a Garlic naan and rice. The Chicken Tikka Masala was aweful. it was dry and lumpy and had a very bland flavour. The Gatlic Naan was cold and hard and had no flavour the only part that was of an acceptable standard was the rice It was daylight robbery at £15.50 for one meal.

Ordered a carry out vegetable Korai and a vegetable Korma - they contained what looked like a bag of cheap frozen carrots and peas - certainly no peppers, tomato or fresh herbs as described in the menu. Even if it did have meat in it, still wouldn't have made up for these sub-standard sauces. On to the over-priced Pilau rice - more like boiled with a couple (and I mean a couple)of red grains accidentally dropped in. As for the Naan - dried out and crispy, not the plump, soft naan we were expecting. Only decent thing was the side of Sag Aloo, obviously not made at the same time as the rest of the effort. For the price, I expected a higher standard of ingredients, especially for a vegetarian dish, as vegetables are not expensive - at the very least, the ingredients they list in the menu! Very disappointed with this take away.

Great food, great prices, clean, attentive staff, will be back every time we are up this way and would definitely recommend.

Today I ordered the happy meal takeaway,a special deal every Thursday for £11.95 I received,vegetable pakora with lettuce,poppodom and onion salad,chicken bhuna and pilau rice and Bombay aloo. So tasty,well cooked,excellent service from super friendly restaurant. Thank you for such a lovely meal.

Very attentive young staff, nothing was too much trouble. Food was good quality and well prepared. Would recommend.

Just picked up our phoned-through order and it was lovely..!! The kids really enjoyed the pizza and my husband and I had lovely curries. Very helpful staff too.

i had veg pakora that was that hard you could break a window with it i also ordered chicken pakora the bits were that small you needed tweezers to eat them and the sauce was not pleasent i will not be going back to that shop i think the chef should go to the indians in buckie and see proper pakora you had a cheek to charge me for that pakora poor quality and over priced

I have enjoyed the Indian Fare here...but I was pleasantly surprised with the Pizza!! Very good...and different.

3 of us popped in for a takeaway at 8pm on 02/02/18. Welcomed by friendly staff (who turned the music down when we walked in). Surroundings were clean and tidy, with several tables set and ready to go.

One kebab purchased on a recent stay. all good and decent enough. Not sure i'd class this as a restaurant...more a kebab shop with some tables, although set out with table cloths etc...

We chances upon the restaurant whilst staying at Findochty and after reading the trip reviews decided to give it a try and were not disappointed. The food was medium priced but of excellent taste and quantity and if you love Indian food as we do I heartily recommend you try this restaurant.

Went here midweek. We had the restaurant to ourselves and were allowed to bring our own beer as they do not have an alcohol license. We started with poppadums which were freshly cooked and came with 4 dips. We then moved onto the main course. We ordered pilau rice which was light and fluffy, a side order of skinny fries, one keema nan which had just been made and the two curries to share. We picked a chicken madras and a chicken naga. The naga was volcanic just how we like it! Both were full of flavour with tender chicken and veg. I class myself as a bit of a curry expert and think that this may possibly be the best yet!

Average Indian take away with a few tables. Menu included all the usual dishes at around normal prices. We found the taste a little mild.

We had decided to have a takeaway from here in the week while on holiday, the curry (madras) what can I say there was no flavour tasted more like soup of a non description. I had half a dozen mouthfuls the rest went down the toilet. If we come this way again this will be one to avoid.

This restaurant just looks like a take-away from the outside, nothing fancy but it is worth a try. When we...

Went for a meal and we both thought the food was really good and all freshly made to order also...

Three of us went to the Royal Tiger on a Saturday night. We took wine with us because we knew the restaurant doesn't have a licence to serve alcohol. We also knew that the main emphasis of the place is on takeaway food, so the eating area is relatively small. The restaurant menu has a good range of reasonably priced Indian sub-continent food and Thai dishes. We chose and shared Indian dishes, all of which were very well prepared and flavoured. The service was excellent and we'll definitely go back on our next trip to Cullen.

Bien. Hay pescado basura y patatas fritas. Luego están los pequeños donde todo el mundo parece pensar que es genial y que atenernos. Luego están aquellos que realmente son de primera clase. No vienen en paquetes de lujos; no la necesita porque el pescado es fresco cocinado y sale muy buena. Sólo eglefino, pero se puede tener ahumado. Magnífico! El budín blanco era ridículamente bueno. Dejar la dieta en casa y llegar a Linda, si estás a Cullen. Regresaremos por skunk esta noche. No puedo esperar!

Had one of the best Indian meals I`ve had in a long time. This was the first time we`ve eaten here but would definitely recommend it. We will sit in the nexy time!

We spent the weekend in Cullen and were keen to try the take away service at the Royal Tiger, until we noticed that they had a small area to eat in. We had a fantastic meal - quality first class - surroundings were just ok - you did feel that you were sitting in a take away. The menu classed the rice as large - so ordered 3 rice between the 3 couples - but had to order more as the rice portions were not large. That being said it didn't detract from a fantastic meal - they brought us extra rice very quickly indeed.

Have given 4 stars for the quality of the food and cleanliness. Visited with 2 friends who really like Indian food, although I am not keen. However as it is advertised as serving pizza I thought I would have one. When asked for menu showing English dishes was told that the pizzas are only for takeaway. Really don't understand why I couldn't have one sat at a table. Ordered chicken korma, as not spicy and did enjoy it. I really did want a pizza. Very limited drinks available. Does seem to be more popular as a takeaway than a restaurant. Also to cap it off there were a couple of kids running riot around the place whilst parents (?) waiting for takeaways.

Really good selection and the food was yum, the cheese nan was ok but not really big, korma tasted good

We ordered a take away for 8 one evening. It would be ready in 45 minutes, which it was. All correct and a lovely meal was had by all. The only thing to be improved on is their chips.Staff were friendly and efficient, in a very clean and tidy establishment. Parking was available in the main street, opposite the front door.

My first visit to the restaurant & I was very impressed indeed.Although you can sit in here, we had a take away (or carry oot,as they say up here!). The food was fabulous & exceeded my expectations. The service, both on the phone & over the counter, was refreshingly polite & friendly, lots of smiles! The restaurant appeared to be.extremely clean. Much to my delight there was none of the ubiquitous pop music to spoil the atmosphere either. We will most definitely be regulars.

royal tigar restaurants Always good food and good service Top marks all round and highly recommended.*********

Fit for a King the food and service was epic,this was a takeaway ready in 20 mins as stated when ordered,in the group we were in we had chicken,lamb and a vegetarian dish.We all ordered a main course,rice popadams and a selection of Nan's.Not to bore you to death with the full order,i had the Chicken Tikka Chilli Garlic,marked very hot on the extensive menu.It was indeed as stated but not a intensity that masked all the other flavours in the sauce.All the others in the party like me thought that we had just eaten the best takeaway ever.So Top marks all round and highly recommended.*********

A take away for 6 on a Saturday evening. Phoned in and picked up in 20 mins, at approx. £10 of food for each person.The order was complete (nothing missing, compared with many other establishments of this kind that i've been to in recent years). All very efficiently done and boxed / packaged neatly. Polite staff.The only slight problem with my chicken tikka masala was not enough chicken in the large quantity of sauce. My peshwari nan soaked most of it up though. Yum. We'll be back!

Regarding a recent carry out order that I placed while holidaying in Cullen , I'd like to compliment this restaurant that also offers a carry out facility as absolutely outstanding. Excellent service with a reasonable price, but more importantly, possibly the best tasting Indian meal that I've ever had which was also agreed by most of my family members too.If you like a mild creamy coconut tasting dish, I'd like to recommend the Kashmiri.Fantastic I've had many a Lamb dish and many different Indian dishes, but the Kashmiri dish ordered from this particular restaurant was as I mentioned, possibly the very best Indian dish I've ever had.10 / 10 guys, highly recommendable and you certainly won't be disappointed.

This was our second visit to the Royal tiger and we will 100% be back. The food was scrumptious if a little pricy. The service is good and overall experience was top class

Visited the Royal Tiger last month on a Saturday drive and had decided beforehand to come here in the evening.Although not a great deal of atmosphere and we were the only people eating there as everyone else was using the takeaway which is joined onto the restaurant, the food was nothing to complain about. Good poppadoms with sauces for starters and good naan bread and fine spicy curry, I enjoyed my meal here. To be fair I have been to better places but I have been to a lot worse too.

Had a quick bite here a couple of weeks ago.Chicken tikka masala to mich cream and not enough flavour and thai green curry was basically a cream sauce with some green curry paste thrown in.Rice and sides nice but need to improve the main event,

I have went to many restaurants before and this specific restaurant has the best food. The food is full of flavor and cooked just perfect, the food is excellent. I have seen some reviews on this but one of them saying " it should be destroyed ", is just a act of racism. That person should be destroy.

Bought two donner kebabs and you could have bounced the donner meat on the floor it was that tough..Service was shocking, the man behind the counter was arrogant and unhelpful in every way!!Well over priced considering how poor the food quality was!!Will not be back!!

Visit here with the mrs and another couple a while back. All in all it was a cracking visit. The quality of food was high and the curries were tasty.The downsides however were the very small portions and the price!! I thought i was going to have to sell my car in order to pay for it. You didnt get anywhere near enough food for your candy.

Chose to get take aways here twice during our holiday for quickness. Not disappointed. Every choice was very good.

Excellent food. quick service. Enjoyed our meal. Good value.Centrally located in the main street. The restaurant looked fine with a few tables. Everything looked very clean.

Interesting menu with Thai, Bangladeshi and Pizza. Grandchildren had pizza and it was the best we have ever had. Lots of pepperoni and cheese right to the edges!! Mild Chicken Tikka Masala was excellent

Delicious veggie korma. I haven't been to the restaurant only had a takeaway which I had no complaints with. Very quick service, fresh, tasty and hot! Will eat from here again.

Found this to be, basically a take away with a few tables squeezed tightly together. The first problem was asking for a glass of wine, only to be told they are not licensed. So why have wine glasses on the table? The starter was quite good, but the main meal was sickly sweet. My wife ended up leaving more than three quarters of her meal, I left about half. The cost of the meal was overpriced for the type of premises. We will definitely five this place a miss the next time we are in Cullen.

Uns führte der Zufall in den Imbiss, dass er der einzige War der noch offen hatte.Wir hatten für stolze 30£ sehr durchschnittliche thailändische Nudeln (bei den prawns waren noch die Därme drin). Bräuchte ich nicht nochmal.

very good food, and quick service. Have not had Indian food from this place before but would certainly recommend

below average food, poor decor, no delivery service. take aways are all similar but this is poor. food tastes processed and rubbery

I purchased a take away to try this restaurant based on the reviews it has received. I have trouble believing this was the same restaurant. I am a Glaswegian and pride myself in having some ideas as to how a good curry should taste. What I purchased was not even a curry, more like a stew my mother would make and she only used pepper. I had a bhuna lamb which turned out to be a dead ringer for one of my mothers stews. Bhuna should be a dry curry with virtually no sauce. My wife had chicken curry which contained left over chicken kebab in some kind of soup. Speaking of soup, the tarka dhal was just that but without the lentils??Anybody who can compare this food favourably with a Glasgow curry must have lived in a cave or undergone some kind of taste lobotomy.

Top quality Indian food ,best in the area , very pleasant staff . Have had sit in meals ,but more often than not we go for the takeaway service .

The service is very fast - food arrived in double quick time. Chicken curry was good and plenty spicy enough for me. The vegetarian option my wife had was bland - mushrooms and potatoes only. Nan bread was stale, like yesterday's which was a shame.

Me and my husband have tried many Indian restaurants in moray and found this to be the best by miles!

Had a lovely meal there last night. Have had many curries in my home town Glasgow and the food here was one of the best I've had. Service was excellent, very efficient and friendly despite being a group a 6 arriving unexpectedly.

A recent visit with family was very good. Staff couldn't be faulted for their warm welcome and excellent service. Food was well prepared, presented and delicious. Would definitely go back.

Stayed in Cullen for a week, and ate twice at Royal Tiger. Thought there was great choice on the menu, with some different choices. Everything we had was really tasty, and was good value. Soft drinks only although I believe you can take your own bottle if you wish

On our way back to Macduff we stopped here for take away and the curry, nana, popadoms & onion pickle were amazing. Can't wait to go back.

Had a take away and the food was excellent. Prices are reasonable. One of the best place we found for food in Cullen.

We have an Indian takeaway most weeks, have had several from royal tiger Cullen , always 5 star.Best dansak, best madras we have had in Aberdeenshire.

Royal Tiger is not the place to go if you are not into Indian food. They advertise western food as well, but the only thing on the menu was pizza. No burgers or fish! No liquor license!

We have not had a sit in meal at this restaurant but have had quite a few take aways. The food is always piping hot and the quality and variety is excellent

My husband is a big fan of Indian food, so we were pleased when this restaurant opened in Cullen (although not so pleased about the ugly, unsympathetic changes to the building - Victorian door and frontage gone! - isn't Cullen meant to be a conservation area?). We went for a meal on a Saturday evening. It was very quiet (always a bad sign!) and we got a lukewarm reception from the staff. Food had a rather 'chemically' taste - didn't seem authentic, according to my husband. (To be fair, although he claims to be a gourmet, he can't tell the difference between lemon and orange!) Also very pricey for what it was.

We came on a short visit to Cullen and there wasn't many places open to eat out, maybe as it was the end of March and the season not yet started. Having frequented many Indian Restaurants over the years we have to say this has been one of the poorer, if not the poorest ever. The spiced onions were dried and finely chopped with no spice taste whatsoever. The Kashmir Chicken - tasteless. Chicken Tikka was bland, and we had to add pakora sauce to the curry sauce to make it taste edible. The pashwari nan thin and crispy definitely not like any nan we had tried before. I think as there is not many places available to choose from in Cullen, there is the opportunity for any eaterie to be successful, so maybe take this critique as constructive.

Having recently moved into the area we were worried we would miss the range and variety of curry houses in the city. Fear not ! This restaurant is amazing. The quality of the curry at the Royal Tiger is actually world class. I had the lamb Lahore which was mouth watering and my partner the Ghurkka Chicken which was wonderful. This is actually one of the finest meals we have ever head and can't wait already to go back.

Back in my home village staying in Bayview Hotel I heard another guest say how good the Royal Tiger was. His Indian wife nodded. Tired after visiting a care home, I thought 'oh well. menu full of chicken, don't want chicken. At a table with real tablecloths, real glasses - go out and get your own wine - I ate Chicken Lahore and the best non-greasy chapatti ever. Chicken tasty. I haven't eaten chicken so good since a schoolfriend from a farm gave us the home grown at Christmas and new Year i.e. when chickens strolled about and ate real food.

Took the wife and two friends here for her birthday. Met by a very friendly waitor and were the only customers in. The food was excellent and faultless but we found it pricey for only 4 people eating. Over £1 per poppadom is scandalous. We will be back

As a curry lover, I really am surprised at some of these reviews. As far as indian cuisine goes, the food was sub standard and I would certainly avoid this place. I wont be back.

Visited the royal tigar with my husband on a week night, we had booked our table but didnt need to do this as the place was dead, quite small for a restaurant no license for alcohol but u can take ur own, we were £49 for our meal which was 2 starters and 2 mains with rice and 1 nan quite expensive really for a village take away. Food was good but great lack of atmosphere. Think this place would be better as a take away.

Having read the reviews , we were keen to try this restaurant,. we either hit this place on a bad day or the other reviews are inaccurate. Food quality was poor, and service even poorer,the waiter has some learning to do when it comes to customer relations, arrogance would be the word to use, no atmosphere more of a takeaway and expensive.

All the way from the West Midlands, only for a day, genuinely friendly staff and management.Food was excellent I surely will be back may be even next bank holiday.... Nice scenic drive.

This newly opened Indian is a must to try. The waiter helped us decide what to have and it proved to be one of the best dishes I have ever eaten. The portions were quite large but we seemed to manage it! The ambiance is quite bright but at least you could see what you were eating. You have to take your own wine but this was not a problem for us and can't wait to visit again.

Have eaten once in the restaurant and had a couple of takeaways from the Royal Tiger. The food was lovely every time and I certainly recommend it. What lets it down is the interior decoration which looks cheap and plasticky and the lighting is far too bright. There is absolutely no atmosphere in the restaurant so it's not the kind of place you'd want to go to for a nice night out which is a shame because, as I said before, the food is great, with many of the dishes being a little different from the usual Indian restaurant fare.

If you're passing through or staying locally, pop in here, food is delicious, service is great, and the prices are very reasonable, restuarant or take away, you can't go wrong.

Don't be put off by the fact that it looks like a glorified takeaway with a few tables filling up the floor space. This tiny local restaurant is serving up Indian and Bangladshi food which would be creating knowing looks and nods of approval anywhere in Glasgow or Edinburgh. I know, it's a big claim for a tiny town, but trust me, I'm a curry addict and I know the real deal. We have dined there twice since it opened and each meal has been consistenly brilliant. Exquisite is the correct word. Beautifully prepared, fresh ingredients, wonderful - simply wonderful! - flavours and service (by the proprietor) which was friendly, relaxed and genuinely eager to serve If you're just passing through or if you're a local, check it out. You will thank me a million times over if you do.

Took my husband for a birthday treat and although we were a bit phased by lack of licence and no card facilities that was quickly sorted out by a visit to the local shop and cash dispenser! Glad it didn't put us off the food was lovely, atmosphere informal and staff attentive! Will definitely recommend friends and be back!

We went for a birthday meal heard good reports and we had poppadoms starter and main with garlic nan, it's a bring your own booze place but not a problem we went to coop round corner had a nice meal and a good evening

Decided to have a night in and elected to have food from here. I have a pizza and my mum had a Thai curry. Pizza was ok (base a bit undercooked for my taste). My mum enjoyed her curry but again thought the nann was a bit undercooked.

My wife and I went for a meal last night and were pleasantly surprised very attentive staff and beautiful food my wife had a lamb dish and I had chicken it was perfectly cooked the meat was moist and the sauce exactly what it said on the menu, Yes the place is bright and it is a little draughty when the door is open but thats only minor points the food and service more than made up for itGreat value for money we will be returning.

My wife and I had a takeaway from this new restaurant and we were delighted with the food, portion sizes and price.

Amazing kebab - really tasty and had curry on the Friday night and it was very very tasty but their kebabs were out of this world - really cheered us up!!

Good food and very clean restaurant but also many negative which we experienced tonight. Staff were over attentive (they came over to out table six times during our main course) which just became annoying, looks like an American diner inside, was very cold, could hear quite a bit of kitchen noise from our table, drinks were served in the 500ml plastic bottles and there was no prior warning that they do not accept card.

Great food had doner chicken noodles and chicken wrap. Both large portions and best we have tasted in a long time will be going back to taste rest of menu would highly recommend reasonable prices also and nice staff. Very satisfied costumers

Only in its 3rd night of opening and the place was out the door with people, counted a good 35-40 in the space of 30 mins. It was worth the wait though, food is excellent and reasonably priced for the area. Shop is clean, we'll presented and staff seemed nice and hard working. Once the gremlins are ironed out it'll be a smashing wee takeaway in a lovely wee town. Keep up the initial level!

I had the pleasure of eating here on the night they opened for business - Wednesday 15th January this year. One might think that things would be a bit chaotic on "first night" but not a bit of it! The staff could not have been nicer, the food was excellent and the prices very reasonable indeed.It's a long time since I enjoyed such quality in an Indian restaurant - and my wife enjoyed it so much she is going back next week with a group of eight!
