“ We drove through Inverness today and spontaneously decided to eat here. This was, by far (!!) the best Indian food we had during our travels in Scotland, the UK, and maybe ever. We ordered four different meals with two different types of Naan and two different types of rice and each (!) was exceptional. The vegetables are freshly cut and cooked, the spices are incredible, the portions are fantastic and the prices super fair. The server was very nice and very helpful. We loved that there were so many vegetarian and even vegan options. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant! ”
“ Exceptionally delicious food. We ordered four different dishes, rice and naan and loved all of it. Really friendly staff, too! ”
“ My wife and I loved the food, had to go back for the second time during my 3 night stay at Inverness. The naga curry was absolutely delicious. Khaled was very nice to us, hopefully I am spelling it properly. ”
“ Happened to pass by and was standing outside wondering if we should try it, when a patron just stepping out, recommended us the dinner banquet option. It did not disappoint! Flavours were on point, food was fresh and service was great. Definitely worth a visit! ”
“ So ordered my first Takeaway last night following change of ownership. Thought the food was pretty good to be . Starters- Went for the chicken puree which was a pretty delicious all round although could’ve done with a little side salad which other restaurants usually provide. Mains- Went for a vegetable Kathmandu which was full of flavour really enjoyed the fresh ginger and other spices was a little mild than I expected but overall delicious. Had this with a mushroom and rice which to be honest was probably the best mushroom rice I’ve ever had from an Indian takeaway absolutely delicious! Cheers guys good to have you back will be ordering again soon ”
“ Amazing food and great service here! The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming. We had an appetizer, two entrees, and a couple of sides for two people. I would definitely come back. ”

“ A great atmosphere from friendly staff and delicious food made our dinner in Inverness one to remember. All the food was delicious, I had the house special Tiger Curry with chicken and it was delicious, the papadum starters with sauces were popular with the whole table and the garlic naan I had was fresh and soft. ”
