Yadgar Kebab House in Glasgow City

Stepping in to this place immediately felt wrong! I ordered some curries from this place. It wasn't food; it was culinary despair. Completely devoid of life or flavour – a tasteless void conjured, I can only assume, by a chef whose soul died long ago and who now just slops together ingredients for coin, utterly neglecting anything resembling taste or care. A truly grim disappointment, amplified by service as lifeless as the meals. Between the grim atmosphere, the tasteless food, and the poor service, it's simply not worth your time or money. You will be disappointed. Warning: Approach the curries here at your peril. You will find only a flavourless abyss and the cold, hard truth of wasted money. Do yourself a favour and (Starve) instead!

Worst experience ever No taste and no service Better to enjoy food at shinwari

Authentic taste of Pakistan. Great value for the price.

Good food, and it's priced good. Byriani is tasty 😋

Waiting for delivery as I write this and it’s been just over two hours. I ordered at 7.30pm and it’s now 9.35 pm. I phoned already and was told that the restaurant would contact the delivery driver and they would call me back in five minutes. Well they didn’t and now they aren’t answering the phone. Terrible service from Yadgar. I don’t recommend at all. Update:- Delivery finally arrived just before 10pm, I pointed out to the delivery guy how long we waited and he said it was nothing to do with him and that it was Yadgar’s fault so I should complain to them. Food was stone cold and the “salad” was just a bag of shredded lettuce. No tomatoes or cucumber. The restaurant hung up on me 3 times when I called. Obviously not interested in delivering good service and only money. Never again for me. Be aware. Terrible food and service.

This is my first time visiting Yadgar Kebab House to try desi food, and it was incredible. The flavors are truly authentic, and the prices are reasonable. I really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend it. I had chicken seekh naan, biryani, do pyaza chicken, and gulab jamun.

Delicious food - good ingredients and freshly made. Zone dishes, such as Karahi chicken are cooked to order, so take a bit longer. Very impressed that they actually have saag - mist restaurants just call spinach saag….but it’s a totally different dish. Seekh kebabs seem very overpriced at £9 for 2 kebabs. My usual place in London charges £8 for 4 kebabs. Not sure why it’s so much more expensive for this dish in Glasgow, all other dishes are reasonably priced. Their kebabs are tasty but they were also a bit overcooked.

We travelled from Manchester to Glasgow and discovered that the takeaway food was delicious. Thank you

The staff are unbelievably disrespectful. Went in with family to get a meal and the staff immediately started giving us bad looks and laughing at us. I felt like there was a racist attitude towards us and we're Pakistani. I don't understand and i doubt I'll ever be back here. My family has used this place since it opened and even know the owner's but that's the final straw guys. thx for the memories. Good luck staying in business

Seriously disappointed. Sat 10 mins no one came to clean up or bother to approach us. Left feeling ignored. This used to be my favourite place. The last couple of times it's not been great service. Please guys get it together before other people walk out.

Ordered food tonight 2 and a half hours later nothing. Phoned the shop three times and told it was on its way hour later still nothing when I phoned a fourth time said it would be another half hour. When the food finally arrived it was the wrong pizza and freezing and congealed it was a joke disgusting.

Ordered food actually tonight on this date 21st of February ordered it at half 7 then they took 3 and a half hours to deliver it then the food arrived with the wrong pizza and freezing cold it’s been a good place for years but not anymore 👍🏻

I messaged my friend to pickup lamb chop karahi portion and some chapatis as i was working. My sons on the spectrum, so getting him to try different food has been difficult. He took a liking to these when I ordered them the first time which surprised me. So every so often he has to have them. Well last night when I got home, after 11pm, opened the bag my friend brought. The container was I'd say less than half full of masala and mostly oil. I opened it up, and started taking them out. One full lamb chop, one bone (i guess the meat fell of at some point) and a wee bitesize piece of lamb. That's it, for £9.50-£10 that's it . My kid was hungry so I gave it to him. I called up today to find out how many lamb chops are meant to be in a portion, first guy wasn't sure, he said 3, then 4. I've had 5 when I've had them delivered in the past, so was confused. Second guy was extremely rude. Apparently you don't get a portion based on the amount of meat in it. Just as is. So what, they charge £10 for one chop and wee piece of meat with masala and call that a portion. Aren't they all supposed to be similar? Or atleaset similar weight? He actually told me i should have called last night, when? While working? Then he has the audacity to say i should bring it in and he'll change it. After I mention i have a kid, he thinks I'll let my kid go hungry. On top of that, my kid will have a melt down if he doesn't get what he wants. Shame on you Yadgar and your staff. Your just greedy. Charging that much for so little. Wouldn't recommend you to anyone

I love this place. Great food, great prices. Loadsa great stuff to try

I have been a loyal customer of this place for over a year and have always enjoyed their food, even rating them 5 stars previously. Unfortunately, I have to change my review to 1 star due to the significant decline in quality and service. My recent order was a complete disappointment. First, the delivery was almost an hour late. Then, one of my items (lassi) was missing, and I had to wait another 15-20 minutes for it to arrive. To make things worse, when I finally received the lassi, I found a piece of chopped onion inside! It made me question the hygiene and handling of their ingredients, and I had no choice but to throw it away. The rest of the food was no better. The aloo burger bun was nearly burnt, and the biryani lacked the taste and quality it once had. I understand that weekends can be busy, but when a restaurant charges a service fee and high delivery charges, that shouldn’t be an excuse for poor quality. Really disappointed with how things have changed. I hope they take this feedback seriously and improve their standards before they lose more loyal customers.

Tried this place after being recommended from a regular, Me and a mate had a donner kebab and an achari chicken karahi, both were amazing. Highly recommend.

Very cheap tasting donner. Bland.

Great Products .. Great Service 🇵🇰|🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ordered a delivery for 3 kebabs, the order was left on the doorstep in the freezing cold without our knowledge so the food was inedible. The kebab pitta was stuck onto the paper, use to order from here but won't be going forward, also asked for a hot chicken biryani only to arrive ice cold. Not great and waste of money, We shouldn't have to reheat our takeout

Same standard for past 20 years! Always freshly cooked dishes, always busy, always know what their doing! Got sitting area also for those who want to sit in. The aroma hit u as soon as u walk in. Amazing 👏

One of the oldest takeaways in Glasgow for proper homemade pakistani cuisine

They have become very very very stinjy with their donner,

Taste of haleem is very bad. Not recommended 👎🏻

Great food at reasonable price. Polite and friendly service

Most rubbish pizzas ever had , ruined the party by burnt pizzas, never again from Yadgar

Very very bad service. I have ordered a 16 inche chicken tikka pizza But not chicken on it just green pepper and sweet corn....👎👎👎

Mixed kebab was really good 8.8/10.

They have best desi curries available taste and quality is good

One of the best Pakistani food places in Glasgow. Always recommend this place.

Food is tasty but thier service is Always poor.. the prices are according to whoever Serves you and 90% of the time there is Always something missing in the order..eg.. although you have been charged but when you get a delivery or pick up food something is always amiss.. which makes the eating experience disappointing.. they NEED TO make sure everything is there before handing the food to the customers..😫

Great place been few times when visiting Scotland my favourite

Not worth the visit. 30mins wait for a tea

The food is great and taste is awsm....its quite rushy and it may take some time to process your order

One of the best authentic curry places in Glasgow. I always go for chicken tikka karahi and rotis (keep it simple) never let's me down and reasonably priced.

If the Goshat Karahi served at Yadgar is not the best Curry in Glasgow, then what is? Ask for it in The Hector style. Lamb Chops Achari ain't too shabby either...

Affordable prices for dine in or takeaway

Been using this as my and whole families goto for pizza and kebabs as a child. Constantly good

Fast and fresh service. Thanks again.

The absolute best for authentic Pakistani cuisine in Glasgow The chilli and onion Naan pack a whack and the mango Lassi is stunning. Cheery servers and quick service Pity it's in Govanhill, but that's just for parking.

One of the only places in Govanhill (that I've found) that does Spicy Mince / Chips and Spicy Mince as a topping without yoghurt or other sauce , just cooked mince + spices and chips , + Classic chips, don't know how they do them so well -but used to get a bag of chips and a can of Rubicon Guava about 15 years ago, still the chips I remember

Horrible mince pizza they served us, it was like keema was old, they had no ketchup, what carry out has no ketchup???

I like spicy food but they make normal spice food

I ordered 2 carry out meals.The vegetable Biryani looked delicious but ruined by excessive salt. No other flavours came through as overpowered by the salt. The vegetable Korma had some potatoes and cauliflower but no other vegetables. The prices are good but the food was disappointing.

Very authentic food at a great price..

Been over an hour still waiting phoned the shop they didn't seem bothered

No es de extrañar que toda la zona esté repleta de ratas. Cada noche tiran sus desperdicios de comida a la calle. Absolutamente ningún respeto por los vecinos y el concejo que tienen que limpiar después de ellos.

Best service Best donner as always been coming here for 3years know. Still cannot find a better place

Decent homely food, always making it fresh which is big plus Sometimes food (curry) not up to their usual standard but they dont miss on taste. Grilled food is really tasty and donner is class.

I've went to yadgar kebab house before and But today I've spent £39 for my dinner to eat with my family and I find bugs crawling out of the deep-fried samosa and I am in disbelief that a fast food place is so disgusting and dirty that they allow bugs to be in their food. Please make sure that if you do buy from this place check the food as this place doesn't meet the health and safety regulations and there could be bugs in your food.

Well, eating at Yadgaar Kebab House was like embarking on a culinary rollercoaster – thrilling highs and disappointing lows. The Namkeen Gosht Karai was so tasteless, it made me question if my taste buds had gone on vacation. The Chicken Karai was the culinary equivalent of a shoulder shrug – neither impressive nor terrible. The popadum was a crunchy disappointment, more akin to chewing on parchment than anything edible. As for the Shish Kebab, it was just okay, which in this case, felt like a glowing review compared to the other offerings. If you're in the mood for a gastronomic adventure that's heavy on surprises (and not necessarily the good kind), Yadgaar Kebab House might just be your ticket to confusion.

5 star. Fresh food. Great hospitality Thank you

We've been coming here for nearly 2 years..I ordered a chicken Jaipuri my partner ordered a lamb bhuna..The Jaipuri was a shocking food colouring deep red as shown.The bhuna was a gray tasteless base sauce.. absolutely no spices..The naan bread was tasteless also. We called up to complain and the tool said basically it's hot eat it.. You know what ya tool? I hope people read this and vote with their feet and go elsewhere. Your food was good and cooked with love, now it's as if it's been taken over by people who haven't got a scooby how to do even a base sauce. No more orders from us...:)

This place has been here as far back as I can remember. Last visited here almost 30 years ago and this visit was a nostalgic look back memory lane, even tho the people working have changed, the food is spot on. Highly recommend.

The fish pakora at Yadgar is like nowhere else, huge pieces of haddock!

Simply the best in all categories

I used to frequent this place at least 30 years ago with my dad. Absolutely outstanding, probably the closest to traditional Pakistani home cooking. Amaizing, fresh and really well priced. The kids love it too.

beware of yagdar food make sure you check food before paying as they take forever to refund

Ordered aloo gosht, supposed to be proper desi food, they threw in baby potatoes into the curry skin on, the curry itself was bland lacked flavour come on guys!

i orderd online (£26) for home delivery. my postcode and address were on the drop down menu. after my order went through the restaurant phoned me to say they didnt deliver to my postcode. 5 dys later i am still waiting on a refund and have had to put it in the hands of my bank very disappointing

Got chicken pakora excellent. + lamb bhuna spicy this was absolutely delicious. Even better than usual this is the house best in my opinion.

Service was not so good, everything was thrown on to the table. As for the food, what can I say, I ordered Aloo gosht, when it arrived it was tasteless, it was like it was just boiled with some colour in it. Won't be back. Sorry.

Been going here for years. Can be hit and miss, depending on who is making your order. The last few times I've been in, the service has been terrible. 3 guys behind the desk, neither of them can take an order. Ended up walking out after 10mins after they couldn't tell me if my telephone order had been cooked or not! Would avoid from now on since the old serving crew have left this place has started to go down hill. Boss is oblivious with his head in the clouds. Needs an attitude check. March 2024: Visited after a good while. Ordered the pizza. Found two hairs, buried deep inside the cheese. Your food made me sick MR SHKOOR. DISGUSTING. AVOID. POOR HYGIENE. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

It's v good.. All food good. But Cury pkora need to be more khata. Its not like home Cury... Use some kahtiii lasiii or yougrt then it will be great full.

The guys run this place extremely well. Pizzas are a must-try. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Even when busy, you're never waiting more than 15 mins. Long may you continue as you have done for 20+ years.

Local canteen, exceptionally good value, lamb karahi a speciality. Am more than happy to be a regular here.

Ordered here for the first time. Phoned up and asked for a 16inch desi style chicken tikka, veg pizza to be ready for 8pm. When I got there pizza is not ready and they had to make it again! I asked for it be extra spicy. I am so disappointed with the pizza it was one of my worst pizza that I have EVER ordered. Pizza was tasteless, very bland and the toppings was very measly. So disappointed in the food and the service. Will definitely not be coming back

Food is always great and delicious i think one of the best restaurant in Glasgow. I would highly recommend the food.

The wait is too long sometimes and its annoying

Lamb karahi I wait 42 minutes but the lamb very hard I order mix kebab I said no salad on the mix kebab but when I went home I saw salad on my mix kebab and very dry horrible food and I’m pretty sure this is the worst fast food takeaway in the area and poor service

Great food served family style. We came here with a large group and tried a bit of everything. Food is generally very spicy

Sadly the place has gone way downhill. The problem as I see it is the pre cooked food seems to be lying far too long on the counter. Samosas and pakoras that are meant to be piping hot and fresh taste bland because they've been sitting for days and then just shoved into the microwave. The donner tastes bland too. The seekh kebabs have no flavour. This was the top place in the city for authentic pakistani food bit someone in the management have taken their eye off the ball. Very sad.

Absolutely honking food, was one of the go too places in the area for authentic Pakistani cuisine save your money and go elsewhere, bland, tasteless food, not worth it anymore

Took over 30 mins for just chips and donner. Got told come back in ten mins I understand it was busy but then the guy proceeded to have my order ready but then take other orders rather than handing my food so can I take it and enjoy hot but he spent ages taking all the phone orders and customers orders while my food was sat ready and went cold and soggy. Won't return after this incident

One of the all time favourites for many, many years.

Had a sat down meal. Best Pakistani cuisine I have ever tasted. Food and service couldn’t be faulted. Can’t wait to try the rest of the menu.

Best curry in all of Glasgow if not Scotland proper home cooked dishes not the usual tourist rubbish can’t recommend highly enough

Just delicious! Absolute monsters of wraps and unbelievably tasty!

This place used to be good however standers have really badly fallen decent prices but not the great tastes that should be from a old take away of this standard

Fresh and tasty food I was amazed by the quality of the food.

Quite a basic place to eat in but the food was excellent with v generous portions and the staff very helpful. Had a great time laughing with old friends.

Best pizza's in the Southside 😁

This place has been consistently good for about 10 years. Food is full of flavour.

The food from here is really good..I'm a regular customer and I can't fault it for anything...there Pizzas are a must try as they are the best I've tasted in a long time...

I have been eating in yadgar for over 30 years. In my opinion, it's far the best curry shop in Glasgow for homestyle food I have tried many other places, but I always find Yadgar to be the best If you ever fancy some authentic homestyle rice and curry, give this place a try. Portions are plentiful

Fantastic food and very respectful and courteous staff. Suitable for families to eat in etc. Good tastes like traditional Pakistani cuisine, much better than any Pakistani restaurant in Glasgow. Chapli kebab are very good so was tikka in naan. Doodh patti also very good. Lassi was mediocre.

Love the food very fresh and great value , staff are brilliant

Pizza's are the best in town !!

Love about kashmir tea 🍵. The was fantastic love it ❤

Best curry in Glasgow Not council curry but real homemade Been going for 20 years and always is quality and value

I’ve been going here 30 years I will not eat donner meat from anywhere else.

The Yadgar is the only kebab shop I go to. It's not near me any more but that doesn't matter. Shish kebab with white sauce on the meat with plenty of their fresh salad. I used to live round the corner and had a healthy take away diet as a youngster. Thanks Yadgar. Keep going forever 😍🌹

Best in the town. Everything on spot, prices amazingly low and great portion size couldn't believe. Taste wonderful. Snap I am leaving Glasgow after finding out Yadgar. Definitely coming back 💯

Excellent food - authentic, tasty and nutritional. Clean and hygienic. Friendly staff. Good service. Reasonably priced.

Fantastic food especially currys home made taste when ever we go Glasgow that's first stop for food

The quality of thier food is very good. And most of thier dishes are tasty.

Tasty and authentic Pakistani food ruined by poor hygiene.

Some times food is nice, othere times is terrible

I got a takeaway here last March and it was the best Indian meal I ever had, delivered to my doorstep at the premier inn. I liked it so much we drove from Oban specially yesterday, so I could share the experience with my family. It’s impossible to order through the website using an iPad, so tried to phone and was told they didn’t have any drivers. We decided to go in and order a takeaway for 5. One of the best things used to be peshwari naan. We spent £70. We had various chicken, vegetarian curries and Kormas, plus vegetarian. The naan was truly awful, undercooked and looked like it had come from a factory (nothing like the picture on the website, which is how it used to be, it was also full of sugar and almost raw). Korma just tasted of sugar and the portions only contained a few pieces of meat. We received tiny plastic bags of rice, instead of the usual takeaway box. The chapatis smelt and tasted of raw flour. We had to chuck the whole meal and order a pizza. Shame on you!

Arguably best takeaway place on the city. That allows you to eat in as well.

First time ordering tonight and the food was amazing. Will definitely be going back.
