The Rupee Room in South Ayrshire

Rupee Room, never disappoints and the food is always quality. Tonight was no exception.

Really quick service for collection, nice staff to deal with as well. Food was really good, pakora was spicer than most places but good if that’s your thing. Naan breads were a little well done and the 2 vegan curries we got were a bit too similar even though they were marked as different but still really good. The sharing platter is good value as well, would’ve got the vegan one if there was the option to pick your curries. Will defo order again!

The order arrived exceptionally late (I even had to meet the driver on another street as he couldn’t find my house, despite it being easy to find) and cold, so it didn’t taste nice at all. The restaurant phoned to apologise and said they would give me some money back for the order, but then messaged me (via just eat) to say they would not be giving me any money back. Overall very poor service and very poor quality food.

Food was cold by the time I got it

Food was lovely and tender nice and hot and delivered perfectly . Yes would order this meal again !

After a mediocre fish pakora - please improve the batter - a delicious main and naan made up for the starter.

Arrived too early and Also items missing and not the first time this has happened

Love that you offer a vegan meal deal!! Also the food was fantastic, so fresh and delicious.

First time ordering and the food was amazing and great price. Delivery was spot on and early. Will definelty order again.

The food was delicious and there are many vegetarian options. It's a nice vibe here and the service is very welcome and friendly. Can highly recommend it! There are also starters and desserts available, you can experience a whole indian meal! I had an veg Bhuna Curry with garlic Nan and a Chocolate Banana Dosa for desert and drank an Orange juice.

Sickest delivery drivers going! Great people fast delivery get them a promotion

Wow! Probably the best curry we have had. Ever! We moved to Ayr 5 months ago and it was our first time having a curry takeaway here. Really great service. Food was so full of flavour. We will definitely be ordering from here again. 😊❤️

I usually have amazing food from here, tonight's biryani was tasteless and bland as was the "garlic" naan. Spiced onions were brown and smelt off. As a regular customer i will be trying somewhere new next time.

I really loved the curry, rice and naan I got from The Rupee Room. They even added in some additional items to my takeaway bag! Really great Indian food that isn’t fried, and more authentic. Would highly recommend

Well done ‘Team Rupee Room’ away from my home town of Leicester on holiday, staying close to Ayr, we had a wide choice of takeaways to choose from. We chose right. We collected from a very hospitable man, and got the food back to base, piping hot. Each dish was distinguishable from each other and full of individual flavours. Well done Chef, the people of Ayr don’t know how lucky they are to have you. Next time we’re back in Ayr we shall order again. Thank you ‘Team Rupee Room.’ See you soon.😬

Genuinely one of the best Indians in Scotland. Easily top 3 along side ; wee ghurka (east kilbride) & Virsa (armadale) Very rare ill write a review. However, the food is always incredibly fresh, and packed full of flavour. The owner is incredibly friendly and welcoming. They tend to give you some freebies when ordering home delivery. I consume a ridiculous amount of indian food. Once again, genuinely one of the best Indians in Scotland.

This is the most authentic Indian I’ve had. My date and I enjoyed our meals very much. I had the South Indian curry as I love extra spiciness and it was perfect. Despite being spicy, you could taste all the flavors as the spice didn’t overpower the taste. My date enjoyed his Karahi paneer as well. The sides of mushroom rice and garlic naan were spot on too.

Such a lovely experience! And the food was wonderful and so flavourful!

Had a lovely meal here ordered off menu and it was no problem & delicious. Good service, lovely waitress & good food - will be back

Definitely not quite as good as it used to be.. 😪

Food was Luke warm. No real taste to it, chicken was chewy and hard. Lamb sauce dish had no real flavour and was just a sauce with meat in it. Have had Rupee food before and was much better. Coconut rice was lumpy with powdered and really unappetising. Was not worth the money paid.

When we entered the restaurant we were greeted by front of house staff who were very helpful and very welcoming. I had King Prawn pakora which i thought was delicious the batter was light and the prawns well cooked. For main I had lamb Palak Palay which was well spiced and the lamb was so soft. Our Nan was fresh and well cooked. The others in our party also enjoyed their dishes and all our plates were cleared

not much chicken for £13 and the chips were crispy and hard

When entering the restaurant you are greeted with a welcoming and very pleasant front of house named Umess. After looking at the menu we couldn't decide so Umess gratefully pointed out what he thought we would like. And boy was he right. The chicken bhuna was delicious and my daughter said her chicken Rogan Josh was the best she has tasted. We live in Glasgow but the next time we are in Ayr we will definitely visit ( Umess ) The Rupee Room.

Had dinner here this evening to celebrate my mother-in-law's 80th birthday. Ten of us at the table and the staff made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. Food was served quickly and everything was delicious. Very generous portions and lovely fresh taste to everything. We were very well looked after by the owner and our waitress. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they made our evening of celebrations very enjoyable. Massive thank you for making the evening special 🩷

Very disappointed.. both curries very bland . From a jar not fresh .Noe eaten .. sent food back . Nan bread was stale Will never return.

Amazing restaurant, been in a couple of times and it has just been fantastic, food has been phenomenal (even for my mum who is very very fussy) and the service has been amazing. Very laid back atmosphere considering how high quality the food is. 10/10

Last time we were in Ayr about 5 years ago we came here and it was excellent, really good. Sadly this is no longer the case, the service was exceptional, very friendly greeting and really looked after us, unfortunately the food was poor and expensive. The Haggis and Chicken Pakora was dry and bland, I had Chicken Dopiaza, 3 small pieces of chicken, Naan wasn't fully cooked in the middle, 1 drink, 1 popadom, starter, main and Naan, £42 including tip for very average food.

Incredible curries. Lamb madras and tandoori were sensational!

5 small cubes of chicken in my meal and they were like rubber just horrible

Chewy lamb, undercooked chicken and missing prawns. The naan bread wasn't fresh but burnt and the salad consisted of a few strands of lettuce and onions squashed in a plastic bag with an old slice of lemon. Chef needs training infact just close this place down, decent restaurants do exist just not the rupee room.

I have eaten here on various occasions during the years and it has been ok. Ordered a meal for my friend and I and it was inedible. I opted for the uncomplicated Saag Paneer. It was so salty; like licking the inside of an empty salt water pool. When I phoned to complain was told no manager could talk to me and the phonee couldn't understand me. Really shoddy service not to mention awful food.

Wrong order was delivered but restaurant was quick to sort it out and redeliver

Curries were fresh and tasted beautiful

First time ordering from here! Great, flavourful curry's and starters. Will definitely order again!

Not As Good Quality As Previous Orders

After reading reviews i was confused should i go or not but later decided to go. Tried this restaurant for the first time and absolutely loved it. We got good portion. The taste was brilliant. The service was also good. Highly recommend this.

Tried it for the first time. Loved the food and dessert. the environment was beautiful. The guy Umaise was very friendly and professional 👍🏻

Food was brilliant and and the person served us umesh was very friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend you to try this place when you are around here.

So we used to love the Rupee rooms, but tonight was really disappointing 😔 my nan was soggie and korma was ok I suppose, used to be soooo good ! just disappointing really

Not worth the money disappointed anything but a posh keeba.

Been coming here for a while and was pleased with food and prices, sadly won't be back, we were the only people in on a Saturday at 7pm and I know why we ordered two chicken main courses and two mango lassi. The waiter asked if we'd like poppadoms so we said yes, thought they were complementary, no beware it's nearly £6 for 2 poppadoms, 5 mins later the chicken dishes are served, my dish had the chicken cut into perfect cubes, was unbelievably hot and didn't taste nice, I believe it's microwaved, I don't believe the chicken was cut from fresh breast of chicken. The bill came to over £50. It's cheaper to get the train to Glasgow to get far superior food and a lot cheaper. We won't be returning.

Food was terrible. I complained and the manager was very angry and shouted at us. Never again would I use this place.

Good food, ready quickly. Friendly service.

Food was disappointing meat was overcooked and missing the king prawns.

Chicken chewy and 1 hr 5 mins late

In Ayr for 2 nights Airbnb. We both love curry and in 10 years have possibly one curry out or one takeaway per week, this was probably the tastiest food we have ever had. Poppadums and usual dips to start- lovely. Veg pakora and dips / lovely too. My wife is vegan and she was helped expertly by Umesh to get what she wanted, which was a Sourh Indian veg curry. She absolutely loved it, as did I with my King prawn Jalfrezi. Mouth- tinglingly good! Washed down by Cobra draft. It was a Monday night, quiet, but service attentive and on point by Umesh. Highly, highly recommended. Thank you.

Absolutely gutted to post this. I've ordered the same dish here for around 25 years. Till today I would have told you it's the best Lamb Saag I've eaten (it's the only dish I ever order anywhere so I have a lot to compare it to!). Unfortunately they've changed the recipe and it's a disaster. The texture is different, the flavour is salty and not spicy at all. Gone are the tomato chunks and the lamb cuts are fatty. I'm not angry I'm just disappointed. 😞 I don't want to base my rating on this one experience after 25 years of amazing food but if this version of lamb saag staying, I won't be. 😥

the rice was watery and salty. both curries were excessively spicy....korma was definitely not mild. Did not enjoy at all and was unable to eat most of it.

Fantastic food and lovely owner! We particularly liked the chicken Karahi and the vegetarian platter 🤤Loved seeing the tandoor in action too

Our experience at The Rupee Room was fabulous. Food was delicious, waiter Umesh was really helpful in explaining the menu and gave excellent service.

I think I’m on my 15th year of rupee rooms! Still delicious, still highly recommend and here’s to another 15 years lol!!

That was the best curry I have had in a very long time.

Fabulous food , pleasant delivery driver too . Food arrived very quickly . Thanks !

Great stuff… would recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wasn’t impressed, the 2 curries were just a bland base sauce with some meat, unappetising and very expensive and could have made a better curry myself, rubbish !!

Cold, stale naan bread, house curry - more like coconut curry, chasi was hunt the vegetables, chilli cauliflower was like mush and chips were poor. Well done on the rice tho ...... Well Done you! Utter rip off!!

Excellent meal delivered on time 👌🏻

Amazing service. Speedy and food was delicious. Will definitely order from them again!

Dosas are fabulous, tandoori chicken and naan excellent. Service friendly and efficient. Good value. Already booked to eat here again.

Great food if a little expensive....curries were good apart from the lamb dish 2 or 3 pieces of lamb were very fatty and inedible.....best pakora ive had in ages though . but need to trim and prepare there lamb better at these prices

Very disappointed with the take away order that we had on 23 rd December 2023. We ordered. £149:90 in food and I asked if we would get complimentary poppadoms and spicy onions and there was also a mention of a discount for a large order but we ended up paying the full amount and the only poppadoms and onions were with a set meal which we ordered. My husband and I often get a takeaway for two and normally if it’s a full priced meal we get a small discount and always get free poppadoms and onions. The chicken and lamb kebab were definitely not worth the money. I did send in an e mail before writing this review but there was no reply. So if you are ordering a large amount of food check and double check what you are getting for your money!,

Prawn starter a let down but main course excellent, chicken kebabs also tasted great but small in size.

Nice selection of Indian food on offer. Well priced and meal deal before 6 o/c. Friendly staff and nothing is any bother. Never disappoints.

What a lovely time. 14 family members, including 3 little ones who all had amazing curries. Service was tremendous, nothing any trouble, and a talented chef you catered to all our tastes. Great friendly atmosphere and value for money. Thank you.

Me, my partner and my brother came to Rupee Room late Saturday night as I was playing in a local pub and wanted to eat after it, it was around 10pm, it was the only place that appeared open near us. They must have been cleaning up and getting ready to close and I asked if it was too late for service. The staff were super friendly and let us sit and have a meal. The food was great and the service was brilliant They could have easily turned us away as the restaurant was almost empty by this time. Food was amazing, service was brilliant and good price. Thank you

Takeaway order and was really disappointed. Portion sizes are reducing dramatically and the food is now bland. Really disappointed as we have been using the Rupee Room for years. Sadly tonight will be the last time as it was just not worth the money. Average food but overpriced. Sad

Went on Fri before 6pm. ( 2 meals for £17 ) ,was no mention on the 2 for £17 menu about extra for certain meals and asked waitress if all meals on menu was 2 for £17 and she said yes but on getting home we noticed we were charged £5 extra? , emailed them to find out why and was ignored … place went right down hill , won’t be back .

First time I’ve had a curry that’s watery, the chicken was not tikka and very chewy. The nan bread was very greasy. Couldn’t eat this I ended up basically spending £40 on popadoms and Coca Cola. I don’t know if you are just having an off day or have new cooks in but I won’t be ordering again.

Tasty food and fast service. Would recommend!

Same great quality food every order.

Food lovers with Indian spices must visit this restaurant. They have got wide varieties for starters and main course. Umesh has been so good and kind. Really nice person. Their service is really wonderful. A must visit restaurant if you are in Ayr.

food was great, very tasty, atmosphere put as 1 as there was only the 3 of us in as it was quite late. but for me it was the most expensive meal I've had. that was for 3 currys 2 rice, 2 nan breads 4 onion bajies, and 3 bottles of beer £94. must of put on some sort of surcharge which I didn't realise about. but over all food was great.

Excellent meal no complaints everything was spot on

Good food and central location.

In spite of my postcode being on the order the driver phoned me to find out where my road was. I foolishly assumed that pakoras would automatically come with sauce - wrong, they didn't and finally the chicken tikka main was too salty to eat much of. The only item that wasn't salty was the paratha which didn't have much taste. Overall, very poor and won't be ordering again.

Was delivered to Craig Tara , the park is very confusing , driver called to ask where my caravan was lovely gentleman done amazing finding out caravan . Food was delicious and hot very tasty would highly recommend

Happened upon this place for an early dinner. The menu boasts a number of different curries and other Indian specialties. The food was fresh and delicious. Our waiter, Umesh, couldn't have been more accommodating to our dietary restrictions and ensured every detail exceeded expectations. We had a lovely time and truly appreciated an exceptional meal and experience. Highly recommend!

Really tasty food. Very attentive, friendly staff. Highly recommended. Was full as a fat birds shoe when I left!

It was OK, not worth the exorbitant prices. Certainly put me off ordering again.

First time I have ordered from the rupee room and loved it ,huge portions really tasty and piping hot.

A fine Indian meal to cap off a good day, preparing for the start of the SIAS. Greeted with a warm welcome from a very friendly waiter (top guy), we were sat down and enjoying a Kingfisher in no time (not quite on the same level as a Cobra unfortunately). Starting with Poppadoms and a Pickle Tray, the meal improved throughout. The dips were good but I did feel they were scrimping by only providing us with three pots (usually there are four or five, including Lime Pickle). For a starter, I ordered the half and half - Chicken Pakora and Haggis Pakora. This was accompanied by a lovely Chilli Sauce. The dish was enjoyable however, I felt the Pakora was ‘batter heavy’, reducing the taste and increasing the blandness. For a main, I decided on the Chicken Lassani. It was fantastic - full of flavour, just the right spice and a good helping. I shared some of the Pilau Rice with the rest of the table (small portion - one dish would probably do one person). The Naan’s were all great (massive as well) - I particularly liked the Garlic one as there was no holding back of any flavours. As a nod to us being in the military and as a gesture of good will, the waiter served us all a free drink at the end (I opted for a straight Cointreau). This was a reflection on just how nice he was - a real asset to the restaurant. Overall, a few minor qualms but the star of the show was the Curry - one of the best I’ve had. Very worthy of a 4/5 rating!

Terrible service. They marked it as delivered on time, so had to chase as it hadn't arrived, then they said the driver was on his way. An hour later and it was still not delivered. When it finally arrived it was stone cold and we had no way of heating it as we were in a campsite as they knew. £65 wasted on abysmal service with not even a small refund offered. How they stay in business is beyond me!

There is nothing like good Indian food, and this was nothing like good Indian food. I’ve persevered with Rupee Room but always disappointed. I ordered takeaway. Pakora were dry and overcooked. The korma didn’t taste like korma and chicken was dry and over cooked again. Everything tastes liked it’s been coated in (non Indian) herbs. Not for me.

We found this by accident on a day trip to Ayr. Food was excellent and my hubby says was the nicest lamb Rogan josh he ever had. Loved my chicken tikka masala. Staff was friendly and could not do enough for us

Came here on a quiet Monday night. Had a curry each with a few sides, everything very tasty and service was good. Would definitely go back.

Bit quiet but clean and pleasant background music.

Very unsatisfactory food and service. We ordered & took away food but regretted it later on as it was not good at all. They had packed a burnt naan/roti in our packet which was very disappointed. When we were receiving the food, they asked how many persons are going to eat it which was non of their business. I will not visit them again.

Lovely food, generous portions and fast delivery! Highly recommend!

Food was cold the nanny cold and hard

Great flavoursome food as always. I'd requested not to deliver before 6. Tracker said "on way.. then enjoy your food"...it hadn't arrived yet which made me think it may have gone to wrong address...confusing but all well in the end x We'll definitely use again

Been visiting the area for 2 weeks and been here a few times. Fantastic food!

Reminded me of the good old curries of my student days in Glasgow (1970's). Pretty high praise.

Poppadoms OK everything else was terrible. I take it the usual chef has either left or been finished due to covid. Get him back urgently or you will be closed soon. Also very expensive.

We order our food early but it was obvious that the pakora was reheated from the day before and not freshly made. It was inedible as it was really hard and extremely chewy. Our chicken chasni and garlic Nan was nice though but won’t be ordering from here again.

The posh kebabs are far from posh will not be back,

Sat inside for dinner some time ago, thought I'd get it delivered today food still as good 👍👍👍👍
