Starter was dreadful. Ordered scallops and tiger prawns. Scallops tiny, undercooked, tasteless and swimming around in green water. Tiger prawns were chewy tasteless over cooked shrimps. Unrecognisable really. They’d be better removing those from the menu as put us off completely. The curries were ok. Tiniest portion of chips tho and even tho we ordered different curries they both tasted the same. Place was mobbed and everyone else seemed to be raving about their food so maybe we were just unlucky. The service was ok and they did reduce the bill slightly. We never really complain and aren’t fussy eaters but the starters ruined it for us. The wine was good tho!

I never really rated the Lochnagar, but thought I would give it another try as it is my local Indian restaurant. I usually travel to Echt Tandoori or Carron to Mumbai, as I have never been let down by the service or food. When we arrived, the 2 gentlemen at the desk did not make us feel welcome. I felt we were somehow putting them out by a)trying to book a table and b)ordering a meal. The starters were ok but overall if blindfolded, I would be hard pushed to taste the difference between the sauces on each of the mains. Overpriced for the quality of food and I will not be back.

You could really see that they put a lot of effort into their service. We came rather late for dinner but they still prepared food for us (absolutely delicious and good looking food on top of that!) and the service was brilliant - almost felt like we stumbled in some high society kind of place.

Ordered a take away whilst passing through the town, we had travelled miles so were starving, the food was inedible to humans, it tasted like a watery sugary soup had been poured over some reheated meat, it was honestly disgusting. To be fair the dog ate it though and seemed to enjoy it 🤷🏻‍♀️ they were very busy with glasses covering the whole bar waiting to be washed, it could have been they were more focused on the people sitting in the restaurant but i have never had an Indian that tasted so bad.

Didn't live up to expectation, we ordered a couple of starters which were tasty. I thought I'd try something different and went for the chicken shalimar, which was chicken breasts, stuffed with mince in a thick sauce, a boiled egg was also in the sauce. Whilst the sauce was thick and tasty the chicken was tough to cut and very very dry. At the point our plates were taken I was asked how the meal was and I gave an honest answer, I hadn't eaten the meat so obvious. I was told by the waiter he would tell chef. When I went to pay I was asked again if everything was OK and again I advised of the issue. The staff member apologised and the cost of that dish was removed from the bill. I was grateful for this. Overall a disappointing experience, the quality didn't live up my expectations...afterall this place was described as Ballaters premier Indian brasserie...

We decided to visit this restaurant whilst staying in Ballater Caravan Park and we are so glad we did. Absolutely outstanding meal, everything was so delicious, fresh and fragrant. The dishes are beautifully presented and very generously sized. Such amazing flavours in the special masala curries we chose which had the perfect amount of spice. The vegetable pilau, Afgan pilau rice and the peshwari naan were the perfect accompaniments. We enjoyed it so much we made a second visit at the end of our holiday. The staff are so attentive and very hospitable. We look forward to returning to Ballater and dining here again in the future.

We ordered a carry out which was excellent. The afgani chana bhuna (vegetarian) was great and we only got through about 60% of the taaka dhal and 40% of the karahi chicken (plus 1 portion of rice and a naan) ..so we ordered another afgani chana bhuna, daal and naan for 2 nights later because we couldn't let the leftovers go to waste! It's very reasonably priced and it's not heavy and oily (which often Indian carry outstanding can be).

There is no information about allergens on the menu. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend the restaurant for people with GLUTEN INTOLERANCE! When I asked, the waiter told me that the biryani with vegetables was gluten-free. Nonetheless Unfortunately, I had massive problems at night due to my gluten intolerance. I can exclude other foods that I ate that day. So I assume that products containing gluten were used in the dish. Cross-contamination would also not have triggered a reaction of that intensity. Therefore I can only say: NOT SUITABLE FOR ALLERGY SUFFERERS! For all non-allergy sufferers: The taste was great. The prices were good. Vegetarian options were available. The restaurant was well attended.

Staff were polite, attentive and professional. The starters and mains were served up piping hot and in quick time but not rushed. The presentation was lovely and the quality of all dishes was outstanding. Really couldn't fault anything. Starters were Prawn Puree and Chicken Pakora. Mains were Kathmandu Masalla Lamb and Tiger Special Chicken. Pilau Rice, Keema Rice, Cheese Naan, Keema Rice, Tarka Dhall side, Poppadoms and dips. All wonderful and very well priced too. Cheers Brash

I would say this place is one of the best halal Indian restaurants in the UK. We went two nights in a row. We tried lamb karahi and lamb tikka for our first visit. Second visit we tried chicken tikka masala and spicy lamb katmondu masala. Service is fantastic and the atmosphere is great. Just the two of us in the whole restaurant since it was not in busy season. We rarely go to an Indian restaurant since they are the only ones that serve halal, we decided to give it a try and it was a great one. A nice memory of staying in Ballater after visiting Balmoral Castle.

Service was very slow, took over an hour just to get starters, and when the food came, the lamb and chicken was dry. Curry dishes were nowhere near the standard we expected. The drink order was wrong, but we accepted it anyway (as it was not a big deal). We also noticed the treatment we got compared to other diners, with one of our party having food dropped on them and another getting hit on the head when the waiter tried to clear the plate. With no apologies rendered...I believed he even smiled. To the management- I'd recommend providing some unconscious bias training and customer care training for the staff. Not the best experience, sadly compared to when we first visited over a year ago (when the food was tasty, service was prompt, friendly, and we were treated like everyone else. If you find yourself here - I'd recommend the peshwari naan (fresh) and mushroom rice. If you are yet to order, save your money and leave🙏🏾

This place was often busy so reserve a table ahead of time! I found the portions a bit on the small side. Recommend the okra side, the curry duck, and their signature Indian regional spicy dish. Wish the samosas and pakora had come with green chutney, or anything at all to dip them in. Get white rice over the pilau, it has food coloring in it. Order ASAP and the food can take time to prepare. Large menu, so maybe take a look before you sit down and order food with your delicious tall glass of Kingfisher.

I was looking forward to this dinner so much as I am a huge Indian food fan. The description of the monkfish and prawn dish, Shamodry Jall Katta had my mouth watering, but when it arrived my heart sunk. There were a few tiny pieces of monkfish and three small shrimp (can't call these prawns) in a runny sauce that was more like soup. The seafood was overcooked and tough, and the dish was so spicy I couldn't eat it at all. My husband, who normally orders spicy Indian food said it was almost too hot for him to eat more than a few bites. The waiter who took our order never asked how spicy I wanted it, and I take the blame for not picking up on that. I had to pick out the tough pieces of fish and shrimp and stir them into the rice with no sauce in order to eat what I could. Fortunately our friends had ordered a duck dish, Hash Mishty Tok and they shared it with me. However, the duck was very overcooked and tough as well. The sweet and sour sauce was quite good though. The service was not very friendly, and overall, it was not a good experience.

The wonderful thing about traveling in the UK is you can get good Indian food no matter how small or large the city is. Lochnagar Indian Brasserie checked most of the boxes for a nice (and affordable) dinner. The location itself feels a bit dated inside - they also have a rather odd and dated serving style with a lot of unnecessary plate decorations. Menu was broad and most items were affordable. They had a wide selection of drinks and service was quick, polite and attentive. Food was all good with flavors mostly spot on. It wasn’t the best Indian I’ve had, but it was perfect for the type of restaurant.

Fuimos a cenar en San Valentín. Elegimos el menú fijo. La comida era muy sabrosa. La carne estaba muy tierna. El desierto fue una gran ayuda, pero fue excelente. Vaso gratis de Preseco e incluso me dieron una rosa que fue un buen toque. Excelente relación calidad-precio. El personal fue muy amable. En general un buen momento

Cafe noir was just amazing! I walked in with a kind welcome from the staff! Very friendly and quick with the order. The food was delicious. 5/5 experience!
