The best restaurants in Dumbarton West Dunbartonshire Glasgow and Surrounding

The Gossip Shop closed a while back and has reopened as “Inn Defence” a coffee, burger and vinyl record shop. It has great coffee and a ton of vegan options, from homemade sausage patties for the crispy rolls, burgers, pancakes and tray bakes.

Great staff and amazing cheap food would recommend to all, Very nice and well set up store, Will defiantly come again.

We have been dining at the Delhi DarBar since it opened circa 1991. Tonight we went for a family birthday meal which was excellent! Everything about the Delhi Darbar oozes excellence... The choices, the standard of food, preparedness to go off menu, the attention to detail and the ambiance are all factors that make for a great experience. If you are ever in the Dumbarton area, passing through or live further afield it is well worth a visit. We have travelled far and wide and have not experienced a curry as good as the Dehli DarBar ever!! Well done all and thanks once again for a memorable evening.

I HAVE GIVEN THIS PLACE 5 STAR REVIEWS ON HERE IN THE PAST FEW YEARS BUT NOT ANY MORE! I order a meal for delivery last week it was my partners birthday and we spent almost £30 on a meal for both of us. It had been a long time since we had a delivery as we didn't bother during the lockdowns as carry out places were so busy. We ordered the following:- SPECIAL CURRY/FRIED RICE CHICKEN & MUSHROOM/FRIED RICE SPARE RIBS IN PEKING SAUCE SWEET & SOUR CHICKEN It was midweek but the order still took 40 mins it used to be 15. Food was hot so good there. The "special" curry was all curry sauce and sparse....really sparse...ingredients....a total rip off. The sweet and sour chicken's batter was soggy they really don't know how to make batter. The peking spare ribs were the worst thing I have ever had the misfortune to buy from any chinese resturant in my 45 years of ordering from them. It was just BONES nothing but BONES there was no meat on them at all but even worse was the sauce!!! Anyone who has ever bought this dish will know that what you pay extra for is the luxurious, delicious, peking sauce, which is a rich thick sauce which tastes absolutely DELICIOUS but this was just sour WATER it was absolutely DISGUSTING and was the exact same sauce as the disgusting sweet and sour sauce which was just SOUR SOUR SOUR there was no sweetness to it, no tomato, in it no pineapple in it, just pure GARBAGE....the whole meal was a disaster. Three days later we tried again at the silver star Chinese in Dumbarton East and oh my god what a difference the special curry was full of ingredients and the peking ribs were EXACTLY what they should be that luxurious delicious sauce we all know and love. The ribs themselves were thick with eating and they even made it look visibly good by garnishing it with red and green peppers, onions, etc. Never ever again will I go to "Tastes good" (hah!!!!) not!!!! STAY WELL AWAY FOLKS THE HONEYMOON IS WELL AND TRULY OVER!

Overpriced tasteless pasta, overpriced average burgers, overpriced okay korma curry. Barely English speaking staff. Not recommended.

Very good value for money, the staff at this hotel are very pleasant

Staff were all absolutely lovely but food left a lot to be desired. Macaroni cheese had no cheese or seasoning in the sauce just some cheese melted on top. There was no salt on any of the tables close to us either. First portion of onion rings were brought to the table burnt. The steak and ale pie the bottom pastry was brick hard and the top pastry was under cooked. The broccoli was also undercooked. After complaining about the macaroni and the onion rings we were then too embarrassed to say about the pie too. As already said the staff were lovely and did sort us out with a refund on the macaroni and fresh onion rings but it didn't make up for the food.

We have used the Deli Darbar for a very long time possibly as long as it has been opened. I ordered a takeaway tonight, after enjoying the starters went to the mains to realise we had 2 of the same. I telephoned and the issue was dealt with immediately all fresh and very tasty. Would certainly recommend. Thank you very much for your quick response even though it's Friday night

Fair priced food. The guys there are super friendly and the food hits the spot. Highly recommend esspecially after a night out.

Quick and easy, got all your needs.

Tried ordering delivery n driver didn't want to take order, ordered next weekend n food was very poor tasteless curry n watery spilling all over the plate, inedible 😒

Ordered food that was delivered to the wrong door, finally got my refund after 2 weeks but they took £3 off it for a delivery that wasn’t delivered?? The whole family started arguing and screaming in Chinese when I asked for it. Won’t be back from being a regular. Heard of this happening to others as well

Just moved house local to the Taj and got a takeaway last night, it was AMAZING! I will be in there constantly now 😂 the guy I spoke with was really friendly and had good crack! Love the place

love this place, recently part hired it for about 50 family and friends for my Sons 30th Birthday. Its a Buffet Restaurent which has a great choice of food, varied, Indian currys, starters, Chinese noodles, Pizzas, chips, chicken wings, ribs , and sweets with a chocolate fountain. Highly recommend here, the staff are so friendly, it is fantastic value for money.

An impromptu visit vs staying at home in the kitchen! Staff very attentive and service was quick and accurate. Ordered: tomato soup of the day - very good Breaded cod and chips - fish lovely, chips were average. Haggis neeps and tatties - very good with extra sauce Apple pie with caramel and custard - OK ish On the down side our meal coincided with a large table celebrating a birthday - not conducive to a quiet dinner for two, not their fault. All in all satisfied with the experience even if a little pricey
