If your looking for an amazing Indian restaurant with great food , staff and prices, look no further !! We come from Dalkeith all the way here as its the best by far!!

Thank you sooo much to all the Gala tandoori staff who never fail to impress !!!5*❤️❤️

Absolutely wonderful! The best onion bhaji's I've ever had and the mains were to die for. Very great service and lovely atmosphere. Highly recommend and already looking forward to our next visit!

Absolutely fabulous food and service. 😍 We decided against going to the 'Indian' restaurant in Peebles due to its horrendous reviews. 😱 If you are nearby you must try this one instead. (sit in or takeaway). It was one of the best, if not the best, Indian meals we have had. 😋 We had poppadoms, a mixed sharing platter, two tasty curries, a nan bread and pilau rice. With drinks it cost us only £60. The owner & staff were friendly and subtly attentive sharing local knowledge of attractions and events after our meal. 😁 A lovely & honest family business worth supporting. 😎

I can only talk about the quality of the food and the taste experience of the food. Such a disappointment. Bland, non discript curries that were really poor and underwhelming, and expensive for the end product. I want to support local businesses but I cannot recommend this place for takeaway curries. IMO there's no excuse for under flavoured, under seasoned and under spiced curries.

excellent food and quick delivery

Lovely place, food great, 5 star service

We eat Indian food everywhere we go, regularly cook it at home and we buy takeaways from different restaurants once a week. It is usually excellent. This place was the first really disappointing experience we’ve had in years. Ordered four main dishes which were all basically the same. Characterless, watery veg and really lacking in flavour, complexity and depth. Texture of each sauce was the same too. Pilau rice was just basmati stained with turmeric and the naan was flat and dense rather than fluffy and light. There is not competition for miles around but seriously… must try harder. Not at all recommended.

First time visiting this restaurant for a takeaway and really enjoyed our meal.Good portions and great value.Will certainly be back again

We order from here most weeks as the food is so good. Couldn't find anywhere that matched this when we lived in Edinburgh. Fresh flavours, huge range of dishes, inexpensive and huge portions. The klfds love it too. Worth travelling to Peebles for.

It is much more - it is a fine restaurant that also does takeaways. Sit in and experience the fantastic staff and fantastic decor. Cheese naan first and best. Original cheese naan, pint of lager, three lamb saag that's my order. Best curry in the Scottish borders. Amen x

Ordered online to collect. Positives: Online ordering and payment simple and pain free. Given an estimated time for collection and received a prompt message from the restaurant at the exact stated time to confirm our order was ready. The Tarka Dahl was tasty. We had three main dishes, and there was a discernible difference in their individual flavours, which is a positive. Not so positive: For many of the dishes there is a choice of proteins eg lamb, prawn. One option is ‘chicken’, and another is ‘chicken tikka’ - which is £3.40 more than ‘chicken’. My understanding of tikka is that the meat is marinated and then cooked or barbecued in an oven. Well, I feel that the ‘chicken tikka’ in the dishes we received had not been cooked in this way, ours was anaemic rather odd looking chicken shapes, and was not worth the extra £3.40 we were charged. The lamb dish we chose did not have much meat in it. This is the only curry house in Jedburgh, so they have a captive audience. It’s not terrible, but I wouldn’t rush back. The portions of spiced onions and ‘mango chutney’ (probably just mango purée) were less than generous.

Booked a table previous day , got there on the night waited 10 mins for a table order taken 20 mins later , food was awful for me lamb rogan Josh inedible chips half cooked the lamb was dark in colour and curry far to spicy , waiters running about with a trolley scraping food in honestly offputting and price was extortionate worst meal iv ever had , AVOID a bad experiance

Poor sauce although meat was reasonable.
