Description: Curry devotees have been worshipping at the temple of Ashoka since the 80s. This, the chain���s Glasgow South Side branch, was created to appease folk from south of the river who loved the brand but hated the travel. Boasting an interior with a Last Days of the Raj meets style bar look, Ashoka has the kind of atmosphere which appeals more to bhuna babes than the middle aged ���lads��� on a rampage who frequent your average curry house. The interior may be pared down but the menu is packed with Indian favourites as well as house specialities, leaving even decisive diners with a difficult decision to make.

I wanted to treat my client to a nice evening out, and asked him to pick the venue - unsurprisingly he picks the place 2 minutes from his own door! I've never been here before, and really enjoyed my evening. The menu had some unusual options, as well as all of the standard Indian fare. I found the atmosphere spot... More

This place is simply stunning!! My second visit was at the weekend and again the service was superb and the food was out of this world. The restaurant and takeaway area were extremely busy but regardless of this the service was still first class. Indian cuisine is probably one of my favourites and i can honestly say this is the...

A friend recommended this restaurant to us, and we were not disappointed! The food was excellent - we had mixed pakora followed by lamb (a rogan josh and a spicy jalfrezi). The lamb was so tender, and the peshwari naan was the best we've ever had. All in all, a great curry, topped off by the friendly service of Raj... More

Had a two course meal from the pre-theatre and couldn't recommend it more. Excellent value for a top quality dinner. Tried the lightly spiced fish to start instead of the usual chicken pakora and really enjoyed it. Raj was an excellent host which always makes a big difference to a restaurant. Top marks!

Every April our family is together and we always go to the Ashoka Southside. Why? Well apart from the good food, good advice from Raj and helpful and friendly service from the rest of the staff, the Ashoka Southside is my 7 year old niece's 2nd favourite restaurant in the world. As she globe trots around Europe this is high... More
