The Courtyard - indian restaurant in East Renfrewshire

Always great food and amazing service

The Turban Tandoori used to be fantastic, but in recent years the quality of food and standards of service have begun to slip quite dramatically as prices have skyrocketed. Tonight, I called the restaurant to place an order for Christmas Day, as their Facebook page states: 'let us bring the magic of Christmas straight to your door'. I asked the always rude woman on the phones if they are doing deliveries, and she said, in the rudest possible way, 'no collection only'. I proceeded to say 'that's fine' and was going to place an order for collection anyway, but she abruptly hung up on me before I could proceed with the order. Why are people like this still in a job? I was actually putting off calling the restaurant because I know this woman's attitude always stinks. It's appalling customer service and highly misleading advertising. I will never be ordering from the Turban again.

Always worth a visit. Have been going to this restaurant for years even though we haven't lived in Glasgow for decades. Such lovely, friendly staff.

Delicious food, friendly staff provide a good service!

Great Food and service. Always eat here when I visit Glasgow and have never been disappointed.

Lovely early Sunday dinner . Can't fault anything . Just fab .Best to book as gets busy.

We always choose this Indian restaurant for any occasion, and it never disappoints! My boys absolutely love it. The food is incredibly tasty, with rich flavors and authentic dishes that make every meal special. Highly recommended!

Myself, my partner and family went here tonight. The service was on point and the staff were very friendly and attentive, the atmosphere was really nice as well. The food we had was absolutely amazing and very tasty. I'd 100% recommend turban tandoori to anyone who are looking for Indian food, you will not be disappointed 😁😁.

Just back & really impressed, chicken pakora was soft & succulent & dipping sauces were really good, wife had mushroom pakora & loved it. Had the chicken tikka Chasni & it also was amazing, full of flavour with really soft tender chicken. We got the garlic cheese naan & that Also was superb. Met wee Jai he's a credit to the restaurant, very friendly & helpful. Would highly recommend this place, was definitely worth the half hour drive for us 👌

Best curry I've had in a while, haggis pakora was really tasty, alot of places dry it out, but it was great. Big starter portions as well. Everyone was impressed with their curries, Lamb Desi was particularly good.

It’s always an amazing dining experience at Turban!! My aunt and uncle have been regulars for 25 years, and dinner here is my first request whenever I am over visiting from the states. The food tastes absolutely incredible - my go-to is always the chicken tikka Chasni, with a side of mouthwatering garlic naan. Thank you Jai, Bobby, and the rest of the team for providing top notch service!

Amazing food. Excellent service. Table of 9 service was impeccable. Beautiful table set.

Look. This is Giffnock right? We don't put up with any of your cheap and cheerful garbage that you would more than likely get in some working class Lanarkshire town. We demand top quality nosh and that's what the Turban delivers. Try and book a table at the weekend for the same night and you're too late. There's a reason for that.

The best chicken tikka meal I've tried. Nice curry sauce and you get that in plenty of places but their chicken tikka is the highest quality around. Deep soaked tikka flavour and consistently high quality meat cooked to perfection. The one thing I would prefer is for the onions to be charred/caramelised but that's a minor gripe.

Absolutely fantastic restaurant food, prices & service were excellent! Great atmosphere & such a friendly, hospitable team. Would definitely recommend

We have been visiting this restaurant for a number of years. The food is always exceptional and the staff very attentive and friendly.

Excellent curries, I Korma and Bhuna lamb among my favourites.

Another outstanding meal at Turban Tandoori Station Road. I live in New York and this is always my first stop from the plane. The food is always delicious and the team of Bobby , Jai and the great chefs are always there to help you with every need and take great care to provide top service. I always pick the Channa poori ( chickpeas with a sweet and sour tamarind sauce with a delicious poori bread) and I love the vegetarian dishes. Please go and enjoy and tell the staff Monica recommended you to go!

First time eating out for Christmas dinner, a little bit apprehensive, looking back on memories of many works nights out at Christmas where the meal was a very rushed and 9 times out of 10, a very average affair. Could not have been more wrong. An excellent meal, excellent service and a very Christmassy time was had by all. Fabulous curries, all the usual suspects on the menu, and huge desserts to end. Santa even appeared for a chat and to hand out gifts. This way exceeded my expectations and all being well, I will be back for next Christmas.

Enjoyed the food. We ordered a wide range of things and everything was delicious.

The food and the service were to a very high standard.

This place is closed !! Do not book online the booking system still accepting bookings 🤬

Excellent food and great service, lovely atmosphere

First Scottish Indian meal in about 15 years - did not disappoint!

Love the lady at the counter remembers your name and pretty much what your order is likely to be Food always great as is the service

Heard it was great first visit & last ,cold plates also dirty, pakora undercooked cool, so noisy phones kept ringing for takeaways constant, mains warm very bland Nan soaking in oil&like a soggy mess what a disappointment .

Had a nice meal, everything was tasty and cooked proper,poor selection of cider,would return

Superb curry, intimate atmosphere. highly recommend!

Love this restaurant our favourite takeaway the food is just delicious Infact just ordered there home delivery Can’t wait

Food is excellent and the prices are reasonable. The staff are young and friendly. Most of the tables are partitioned, creating a more intimate atmosphere.

Tried the street food menu sitting in the sunshine,,,,very tasty good prices,,,and cold beers👍👍👍👍

Love the South Indian garlic chicken , amazing !!

If you are ever walking through Rouken Glen Park & wonder what the amazing smell is, it is here! The food is delicious. The service is lacking sadly just in terms of warmth.

This Indian restaurant is a hidden gem . My wife myself had dinner here this afternoon our experience was just fabulous. Starting with the staff a pleasant young team with knowledgeable explanations of some food we had chosen . Restaurant layout very spacious with our own privacy within the seating booth Toilets washroom spotless The food was just delicious starters and main meals were a delight to eat . For starter I would recommend king prawn poori which comes in a tasty wrap. Main meal lamb fillets spicy not to hot well marinated large pieces of meat served on platter roasting hot Finished of with Red velvet cheesecake And a dumpling with ice cream . All in it was a delightful afternoon Thanks to all the staff for looking after us Thanks Courtyard we will be back for the food and (fold away table) .

Always eat here with friends. Nice welcome, easy parking. Good food.

Tried to book a table for 2 adults and a 14 weeks old child, there were 4 people eating in the restaurant at time of booking. Was advised that there was no space for a pram so couldn’t get a table at this establishment. Not a child friendly restaurant, would recommend looking elsewhere for family dining.

Without a doubt the best curry in Glasgow.

Food was amazing and staff very welcoming. I highly recommend it. 🙂

Lovely food and friendly staff added to a great dining experience.

First time visiting & we will be back , food was delicious tasty & cooked to perfection

Collection last night food was brilliant staff very friendly brilliant atmosphere will need to sit in next time

Probably the worst Indian takeaway we have ever had. The rice was all dry and stuck together as if it had been microwaved to excess. The pakora was soft but tasteless. The pakora sauce was like a blend of tomatoes and water. I ordered Aunti Jis chicken Achari but I think Aunti JI must have had the night off as it was bland tasteless with the odd soggy bit of pickle. My wife ordered the Chicken Dopiaza and it was difficult to tell which one was which as they looked and tasted the same bland taste. The only saving Grace was the Garlic Naan which was probably the only thing the chef could cook. I am honest when I say have had better Indian ready meals from the supermarket. Definitely won’t be back and not worth the £40

Really superb. If your new to Indian food try the lamb desi......you will never look back

It is quite simply the best Indian in the south side. The food is amazingly tasty and fresh, none of your boring every day nonsense. Everything is vibrant and flavoursome and deliciously spicy! Get the chicken mirch garam masala for a spicy curry delight!

Had an awsome time here and the staff were so helpful and the owners are just such amazing people. Defo recommend👌

Excellent with good ambience all round.

Everything was grate and lovely waiters and food service. I highly recommend We had dinner yesterday and it was delicious good job

Fantastic food & great service! Dined here with my family; the naan bread in particular is lovely.

Great food and excellent service £82 for three of us two courses with six drinks, very reasonable and easy parking at the station. The staff are lovely and cheery

Had a very well priced voucher so this was our frst visit. Looked after and food and portions all very good. Excellent value and will be back.

I didn’t get the chance to dine in. I booked an itison voucher and have been looking forward to using it. Unfortunately, my 8 month baby has been unwell in hospital and therefore I missed the cut off by two days. Of course I should have booked sooner but it was the last thing on my mind having slept on a hospital bed for the past 5 weeks. I thought as a gesture of good will they would have allowed it but clearly they just all about the money. So I will not be back!

Great food here tried other places but nothing else comes close

Absolutely beautiful, tasty food this evening. Chilli chicken followed by South Indian garlic n chilli chicken... yum. Plain nan was light and fluffy. My son had chicken pakora then shakuti chicken korma... wonderful spicy yet creamy.... I had some sauce with nan bread. Can't wait to return

Best Indian restaurant in the South side IMHO. Nice ambiance good service and delicious food.

Enjoyed our curry. Very nice Staff too.

Lovely food. Great GF options. The waiter with the mullet was a fine chap indeed. 🤘

Birthday dinner from my family this evening.... absolutely fantastic meal and service.... couldn't ask for better! Thank you.

absolutely amazing food and service wS excellent

The best lamb malaidar I've had in years. A local gem of a restaurant.

Staff were rather rude. Practically threw the food down onto the table, had it jumbled up on the edge of the table without telling us which order was which and handing it directly to us. Persons at the table registered blind and can’t even tell which food was which. Member of staff then knocked my mums serving spoon from her food onto the floor along with bits of food, realised, but never offered to get a new spoon for her and left the spoon along with bits of food lying on the floor for 15mins before someone else decided to pick it up. We finished our meal and the table was cleared, we sat for 20 minutes and no one offered a desserts menu or brought the birthday cake out I had handed to them at the start of the night for my mums birthday. So we asked for the bill and waited for the cake just to take home but no one returned again after we waited. So we left, extremely disappointed with the service and lack of hospitality.

Possibly the worst Indian I've ever tasted.Bland overcooked and greasy .Avoid.

Great meal and service couldn't do enough for use we will be definitely be back

Dissapointed service poor ages to wait for food had two small children and booked the table for an early dinner When the food finally came they were too tired to eat We finished quickly and left Takeaways seemed to be getting a priority service rather than the restaurant I sent a private message and got no response

I ordered the food with clear instructions to make it very hot n spicy with loads of green chillies however they have not followed an inch of instructions. Spoke to Sai who said he is the owner and he clearly puts the blame on me by telling that I collected 5 hrs late ( How does the spicy goes off in 5 hrs? ) and called the restaurant 2 days late about this complaint. I forwarded him the pictures taken via whatsapp. I was busy working as I am a doctor and could not the call next day. How does the facts change in 2 days? I deep dived into the website which states the owner is Satnam Singh Chahal n not Sai. He told that he will sort out next day but took a u turn.He was customer unfriendly and very rude.They do not have complaint policy and doesnt care about social media reviews. Best is DO not order again and report to the trading standards as falsely projecting Satnam is the owner. I am not bothered about my 15 GBP but others can be aware of these type of restaurants.

This was my first time in this lovely restaurant. We had an early evening booking, but the restaurant filled up very quickly. The food was amazing; I had the tandoori prawns, which were worth every penny paid! Huge, succulent, and absolutely delicious! The service was excellent too. Well worth a visit, but be sure to book first.

We had planned to have a birthday party here with 10 people, thought we’d try take out before eating in . Found the chicken curry just average , in fact I asked for it to be desi .. it wasn’t .. in fact it was ready in 10 mins …tikka was good. This is the 3rd time , yet to have good food .

Food and service was good as usual.

Always amazing food staff are very friendly and always accomadating

Excellent place to visit for special night out or at anytime really Food and staff are amazing worth a visit but I'd book first as can get quite busy even mid week

Food was actually quite nice but the service was extremely poor. I can’t really blame our teenage waiter he was polite and very nice but lacking in training or direction by more experienced staff. All staff seemed to be very young, The owner sat in the bar area with his friends completely oblivious to what was happening around him. We were seated in the bar area and forgotten about, surrounded by glazing the seat was freezing. I won’t be returning. Shame.

Place is very nice food is excellent and staff very attentive, will definitely go back still brilliant,canny beat it lol

If you are looking for great Indian authentic taste, dine here. Absolutely lovely place, the dark ambience with dim lights on, you get a nice welcome from the staff. the service was pretty quick and it didn't cost us too much at all, although we were in a group, that didn't stop them to serve us right and quick. They have cocktails and beers as well.

Excellent food and service staff friendly will be going back soon

I'm a regular customer and the service and food never disappoints.

Christmas Day ruined party of 10 waited 1.5 hrs between starter and main course even though we complained.,Staff were young and inexperienced. No organisation seemed more interested in getting takeaways out.We left without paying which was justified. Never had such a bad experience in all the years eating out.Last year we went to Mac Millans in Shawlands fantastic.

First time visit tonight. Excellent meal in every way, I can’t wait to return.

A long wait to get served,especially for main meal

The food is very good and the staff are aways friendly and always make you feel welcome .

Fabulous food and tremendous service. 12 of us went on a cold Tuesday night after football ⚽, hot curry and a warm welcome. We will be back

My first time trying here lovely meal staff are very helpful good atmosphere lovely setting.

Excellent food. Well worth a visit.

A very busy restaurant,and no wonder as the staff are brilliant,and the food is amazing

Slow service but rest all good..

Everything about the place is fantastic.staff and management both superb,and the food was 1st class.

Beautiful place amazing staff felt really welcome

Just an all round fab restaurant Food-delicious fresh well presented reasonably priced Staff-friendly attentive very pleasant Restaurant-spotlessly clean comfortable relaxed atmosphere

Incredible - not much else I can say. Never fails to disapoint and food always so fresh and delicious.

1st time being here Manager promoted laughter Fantastic atmosphere Staff outstanding Food was full of flavour Will come again and recommend to anyone

This is our local Indian and every time I've ordered before, the food has been brilliant. This time however was a completely different experience. I ordered a chicken tikka masala (first time I've ordered it from here) and it was the worst curry I've ever had from a restaurant takeaway. Was like eating cheesy korma. There were also no tomatoes added (colour was the same as a korma) which I'm sure is one of the base ingredients of a tikka masala? It won't stop me returning but just a heads up for anyone wanting to order this dish!

I have been using the Turban for years and it never fails to deliver quality meals for reasonable prices if you’re looking for award winning curries at affordable prices look no further

Excellent food and service! Best Indian meal I have had.... and great choice on menu! Staff friendly and helpful! Will definitely be back !!

Outstanding food and very welcoming staff. The desi Lamb is a must try

Great food and service 😊 hadnt been for a while but will be back for sure !

I arrived at the restaurant 30mins earlier than my booking, the staff kindly got us a table very quickly, even though they were really busy. The food arrived very quickly, it was delicious and reasonably priced. Throughly recommend this restaurant.

Fab food and service first time there with my family would deff recommend it will be back again for sure..

Dined at the restaurant after receiving a recommendation and we were not disappointed!! First impressions count and the staff here are friendly, attentive and super efficient. Leo was our server who was exceptional, he listened to our questions about the menu and provided excellent recommendations. Kids meals can be an afterthought at some restaurants however not at The Courtyard - the kids Tikka meal was a mini version of the adults and our kids who can be fussy eaters ate heartily. The menu consists of the classic Indian dishes as well as some we hadn’t heard of before such as The Egyptian Chicken which we did try and can only say YUM to everything. Now that we have found The Courtyard it will be on our radar when looking for a good curry. Thank you 🙏

The food in here is delicious! Some unique starters and mains alongside the good old favourites. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough.

Fantastic meal. Found the resturant by chance and our meal was amazing. We had lamb dezi absolutely fabulous.. like an old fashioned curry you could get in glasgow years ago. Amazing! South Indian garlic chilli chicken was also fantastic. Its been a long while since we had such good curry. We live in ayrshire but will definitely still be back For all you curry buffs out there this is the place to eat. I would highly recommend turbin tandoorie

Was in on Friday night for dinner for my daughters 30th birthday ..First time going, food was amazing, staff very nice place was very clean and great layout 👌 definitely be back 😁

Great food at a reasonable price. Excellent service.
