I visited Stroma for the first time with my boyfriend on a Saturday night. There was music playing (Abba) when we entered but then it was cut for the rest of our visit. The waiter took our food and drinks order promptly, no complaints there. The food itself was fantastic, but we had empty drinks when the food came out and despite staff members standing at the coffee machine looking around at the fairly empty restaurant, noone offered us another round of drinks. In addition to this, when we finished our meal we weren't offered a dessert menu, and still weren't offered another drink. Whilst one could argue that we should have flagged a waiter down, there was 5 wait staff working and only 6 tables of customers. Surely customer service 101 would suggest an empty glass warrants an offer of another? Overall we would return for a takeaway meal if we were in the area, but I wouldn't recommend the restaurant for a sit down meal.

Just read Sophey11 s review which I thought was very unfair. I’ve been to Stroma numerous times and never had poor service, food is always excellent served by attentive staff. I suppose everyone can have an off day but I’ve not had that experience in Stroma!

This was our second visit as even though the service we received the first time wasn’t great we put it down to being an off day so returned but again the service from the same person wasn’t great at all. Walked in had to wait at least 5 minutes before being spoken to and the place was empty, the attitude was horrible , the man just grumped and put us at a table, ordered a drink and then our food there was no pleasantries had to ask for another drink even though our glasses were empty when he was at the table , he’s got a habit of mumbling and walking off which still talking to him. Not great and there won’t be a third try unfortunately as everyone else lovely. Older small guy with grey hair and waist coat.

The food here was absolutely delicious! The £19.50 for two meals is more than worth it! The delicious food was accompanied by EVEN BETTER service. Me and my boyfriend had to rush to a movie and once the lady working front of house was aware she made sure everything came out quickly (which we appreciated so much) she was absolutely fantastic as were all others working here. Will 100% be back soon. Thank you guys! ❤️

We have been eating out in Montrose on our 2 visits in Aug 21 and Apr 23. This restaurant is opposite the Shell garage over the bridge and we called in after filling up with fuel. It is very smart inside and we booked for a Friday night. Good Friday as it was. We had our best meal of the week, nicely served with good quantities. We had English food but the restaurant was quite busy with locals who obviously like the range of curries on offer and they looked appetising. So when we next return, this will be on our 'go to' list.

I had to write a review for Stroma just to let everyone know just how good the food is and the choices between delicious Indian food and hearty British cuisine. On our most recent visit we chose the Indian menu and it was probably the best Indian food I have had for years. The service is excellent and the girls serving had the time to chat and have a laugh. I guarantee it won’t be long until we return.

Eclectic menu and all food was presented was tasty, hot and presented beautifully. The curry sampler was excellent. Shrimp starter and potato wedges very good. Chilean Sauv Blanc was chilled and accompanied food well. Hats off to kitchen staff for consistency of food. The lady who served us was professional and efficient even though a neighbouring table suggested there was a shortage of staff. She served our table (2) a table for 4 and one for 5 at the same time Impressive since the menu is extensive. Thank you for a great experience....we will be back Date visited Tuesday 9th August 5pm

The food was excellent but the waiter could have been more friendly. We all ordered our off the Indian menu and the food was as good as I’ve tasted anywhere, and better than most. The restaurant is well decorated and we n a great position overlooking the harbour. Our only slight gripe was our waiter. Whilst he did everything correct, brought water when we asked etc. he seemed to do it grudgingly. The more he did this the more we praised and thanked him. Maybe he was having a bad day but a bit if positive interaction goes a long way.

The Stroma Bistro is situated on the corner Wharf Street and Bridge Street, It was dark when our party of six arrived and unfortunately I was unable to see the outside of the building.Parking: We were unable to park outside the restaurant as a result our designated driver had to park some distance away.When we entered, we were met with a cacophony of noise because the place was busy, however we were told our table was ready and one of the staff took out outer clothing and showed us to our table. As soon as we were seated, we were presented with the menu asked for our drinks order, our drinks appeared nearly immediately.The Stroma Bistro has a very comprehensive selection of dishes both Europeans and Curry, I had looked at the online menu and had decided on the Lasagne my friends all plumped for curries in one verity or another, (I would recommend viewing the menu before you go as it wile take you some time to read it all).The food: My Lasagne was delicious, it was piping hot served with chips and salad, my friends all cleared their plates and from the comments they made I know that they were happy with their repast. Only one of our party ordered desert a “Baileys type cheesecake” ordered with three spoons and of course they shared and declared their satisfaction. Coffee followed and again it was hot and strong and just what was necessary after such a good meal.The Staff: we were looked after by tree staff members, one Russian lady, one Polish lady and a Scotsman, all were very efficient, friendly and professional and took part in some friendly banter from us, which made the evening more fun and bumped up their tip.As to the cost of the meal, I don’t know as was treated by my family, however the prices are outlined on the menu.We had a delightful meal served by nice people. Would I go again? Certainly. Would I recommend the Stroma Bistro? Definitely.

The food at the restaurant is absolutely excellent good choices on the menu. Staff are very friendly and try their best however they need training in what they should be doing how to work in a restaurant and the place really needs a good manager to co-ordinate service properly as it is the quality of service that lets it down which is a pity when the food is so tasty.

We recently visited Stroma after always going to Roo’s Leap with the family. We were welcomed by the staff who took our jackets and offered us a drink while we waited for our table. Huge variety of food (curries, burgers, fish, pasta, etc.), however we were recommended by a friend to go with a curry. Stroma had a speciality Indian ‘Thali’ on the specials board, a tapas style range of 7 small dishes of meat and vegetable Indian dishes - it did not disappoint! All the food looked and tasted very fresh and had great flavour!

We are a local couple who have been to Stroma on several occasions.. mainly it was very good, excellent if you like Indian food as the chef is Indian. However, I feel that the menu is too big and varied and they are out of their depth as it’s s tiny kitchen and the carry out service seems to take precedence. The staff are under trained - the right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing. There seems to be no direction from the owner who acts as “front of house”. Our table was booked for 7pm what a palaver to get even a drink! Eventually led to our table - no drink! Still waiting.. then by 7.45 we were still waiting for starters. In the meantime the kitchen was rapidly firing out take aways! It was a shambles. This is not the first time we’ve been let down with poor service. In all honesty they’ve become a victim of their own success, as the place itself is lovely with a good atmosphere and decor. They just need to get more trained staff and do less carry outs! It’s letting the place down - people are aware of this and avoiding it ona weekend got this reason. Such a shame.

Visited her on Friday night with another couple. Were sat in the bar area for a pre dinner drink, first impressions were it is a well presented restaurant. After drinks, we were shown to our table. No menus were really needed as there is a thali special (a thali is an Indian meal with several different dishes of smaller portions, similar to a mezze), we all had that bar 1. I have to say, having been in India in March, this was as good as any dish we had there, lamb, chicken, prawns, rice, breads, a lovely daal. The staff were very friendly and the wine was very well priced, nothing ridiculous. At one time, the place was full, lovely atmosphere, people of all ages as it also looked like they did western food. My only gripe is they didn't have any Indian beer, for example Cobra or Kingfisher. I would definitely recommend this place and will definitely be back soon!!

Visited Stroma with my parents for a belated Father’s Day meal. Our booking was received swiftly and on arrival we were shown to our table straight away. The staff were detailed and pleasant and the owner/chef also helped advise on meal selection. The food we received was excellent! They do not skimp on dish size, we all walked away very pleased by our meal. Will

What a find. Indian based restaurant with a great selection of your favorite dishes. Other choices available my wife is not a curry eater and had Coq au vin. A member of our party wanted to book a taxi but no available owner offered and in fact took her and her husband back to the guest house.. Now that's service

We have been to this bistro previously but this was the first time we sampled their curries and all 3 of us were absolutely delighted with them One of our group who specifically likes curries told the chef that this was the best currie she had ever had.

I really don’t like leaving poor reviews. We’ve dined here as a family several times for High Tea and have had mixed experiences. The food and service are really good 95% of the time, however after tonight I highly doubt we will be back. We had booked for High Tea for my in laws joint birthday. We weren’t told during booking that there was already a large part booked in and that there would be a potential delay in our food being prepared, nor were we told this when we arrived tonight. Had we known, we would have booked for a different day as dining with a 5 and 6 year old is challenging enough as it is without having to wait for food. In saying that, the restaurant still had several empty tables. Our order was taken and we were served our drinks and toast. 30 minutes later, the waitress told us ‘2 minutes and your food will be here’. 5 minutes later, we were told the same thing. Another 5 minutes pass and my mother in law asks what on Earth is going on. ‘Oh, 2 minutes’ was the reply again. By this point the children are nearly crying with hunger as they’ve only had half a slice of toast each and it’s now 6.15. Can I also point out that there is absolutely no colouring sheets and crayons provided for them. We normally have a quick service, so on this occasion we didn’t bring anything! Anyway, at 6.20 we are told ‘2 seconds’, at which point the waitress is told ‘No, you will bring the food out for the kids now!’ We watched the waiting staff take and complete take away orders before dealing with the dining in customers, who were paying a premium to be there. Why are the take seats dealt with to the detriment of the restaurant clientele? Meanwhile, another table of 4 have to be placated as they’ve waited longer than we have, and another table of 4 have waited 20 mins to put an order in!!

Friendly staff and good service with nothing too much trouble. Great selection of meals on the menu. My colleagues and I went for a selection of Indian dishes with advice from the waitress. Lovely mix of tastes. Recommended.

We decided spur of the moment to treat ourselves to a meal out. So we rang and booked a table for 2. So glad we did as the restaurant was busy. Greeted by the lovely owner and seated for a drink. We were offered our table promptly and did not feel rushed on making choices from menu. We ordered the 2 curries and Naan Bread. The curries were full of flavour and the bread was obviously homemade just superb. Every member of staff we dealt with was friendly and helpful. To finish we ordered to liqueur coffees again perfect. Having just moved to Montrose, Stroma will definitely be our go to place for a meal out. Thank you so much we will definitely be back.

This restaurant was recommended to us by locals. We had not booked having just arrived in the town on a Friday evening for a short break. Although pretty fully booked the manager found us a table after a short wait and we enjoyed a really nice meal with prompt friendly service. The variety of meals on the menu was impressive and we would go back again if visiting the area.

Whilst the food was good, the managerial skills where incredibly questionable and ultimately ruined our night.

Food was good. Service a little slow. Atmosphere was good until we were asked to vacate to another location within. Due to a complaint from a small minded group. Whilst we accept we were a hen party we were in no way loud,rowdy, rude or using offensive language. We were a little merry but managements handling could have escalated a volatile situation and unfortunately ended up ruining what had otherwise been a lovely day. We won't be back.

Ordered a take away using the app. Ordered the colossus burger . Menu said it came with cheese bacon egg and black pudding. Was disappointed to find out when I got home to sit down for the meal it didn't have any black pudding. Didn't see point in phoning to complain as I would of been sitting down to a cold meal with the fuss. Food was good by all means but ruined by the disappointment

Went to stroma with my partner and highly recommend it. I had a ceylonese chicken korma followed by apple pie and she had a fruity chicken korma followed by baileys cheesecake. Service was quick even though the restaurant was fairly busy. The food was excellent and have to say the best curry I've had in a long while from anywhere in Montrose. We'll definitely be back for sure. I'm sure we'll use the online ordering and have a takeaway sometime.

We enjoyed our first visit to Stroma in the company of friends. The welcome on a blustery March evening was very warm, the staff were friendly and focused and the food (from a set menu for our group) was varied and all the meals looked fine. There was perhaps a bit too much emphasis on chicken on our menu, but there was also pork and haddock amongst the mains. Portion sizes were about right, apart from the deserts, which were just a bit too large and too sweet to enjoy after two other courses.

We visited on the spur of the moment on a quiet Tuesday. The menu has a very large choice of British and Indian cuisine, my wife chose British and myself Indian which we chose from the set menu followed up by apple pie, we were both more than happy with our choice. Service was excellent, we will definitely be back.

After our work Christmas party was held here to a roaring success I decided to give Stroma another try after we had the british food and hadn't rated it highly. The Indian curries are very good, we have ordered several takeaways and eaten in once since Christmas, all of which we enjoyed very much. The food is fresh and cooked well, the flavours are tasty and overall it is a very pleasant dining experience. They have recently upgraded to an online ordering system for takeaways which works very well after a few teething problems. I now use this to order takeaways from home and collect. It would be great if they delivered but I'm sure that will come later.
