The best restaurants serving Indian food in Eilean a' Chèo Highland Highlands and Islands

Walked into the tiny Store in staffin on Skye looking for a pork pie and left with the most amazing takeaway curry from Dave the postmaster and his lovely wife!

I wasn't impressed . The takka dahl was lacking in flavour. The poppadums tasted cheap and the pototoes and cauliflower didn't taste authetentic at all. Having spent time in India myself I don't consider this as authentic Indian food.

Dividing reviews for 2 stakeholders For all: Dirty. Very stubborn staff. Asked for extra bowls for Daal but staff denied it. Not a typical Indian hospitality. Taste was not authentic Indian. Better to eat Indian food at 1820 pub. For Indians: THIS IS A BANGLADESHI RESTAURANT masquerading as TASTE OF INDIA. The paintings of all Hindu girls(they had bindi) is objectionable and really portrays India in a bad light.The food is not at all Indian and had Bangladeshi items. Please avoid this restaurant at any cost even though you feel like eating Indian.Better to eat Indian food at 1820 pub.

This place is an absolute disgrace, and I have no idea how it’s still operating. We arrived in Portree, starving and desperate for a decent meal, only to stumble into what can only be described as a culinary nightmare. The food arrived quickly, but that was the only positive. The taste? Horrendous and downright inedible. We ordered 1 Butter Prawn (£14.95), 1 Pasanda Chicken Tikka (£10.95), 1 Fried Rice (£4.95), and 2 Parathas (£4.95), totaling £44.75 (including a service charge for what, exactly?). The so-called “food” was an insult to taste buds everywhere. To call it “authentic” is false advertising at its finest—it was barely worthy of being called food, let alone authentic. The dishes were so bad we couldn’t wait to pay and leave. Then came the next shock: no card payments accepted! There was a tiny sign inside, conveniently placed out of sight, saying the card machine wasn’t working. We weren’t informed about this before ordering, which was incredibly misleading. With no cash or cards on hand (they were left on our tour bus), we were left scrambling. Turns out, they were happy to take a bank transfer and even had their account details readily available—clearly, this isn’t a one-off issue. The fact they don’t have a sign on the front door is appalling and reeks of shady business practices. To add insult to injury, they don’t even offer tap water! You’re forced to pay for bottled water, squeezing every last penny out of you. The area barely has any signal, so I couldn’t check reviews beforehand—otherwise, I would’ve stayed far away from this so-called restaurant. Honestly, they should be fined for false advertising and shut down. Disgusting, disappointing, and utterly pathetic. Avoid this place at all costs.
