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.

From the outset I'd like to state that The Ashoka Southside stands heads and shoulders above any other restuarant which I have dined in. The ambiance evokes the ideology of comfort and portrays ones own dining room, whilst still maintaining a high level of professionalism and superiority! My family and I recently dined here after heearing raving reviews from friends... More

Benn coming to Glasgow on business for several years now and have yet to find an Indian restaurant to match the Ashoka. Every dish I've had here as been superb and the lamb is so tender it melts in your mouth. Staff are great too, very friendly and helpful to explain the dishes to you when trying something new. Highly... More

Went along with my girlfriend on a Sunday evening having bought a voucher off LivingSocial, Quite often when booking through these deals you are heavily restricted on what you can have from the menu but thankfully not so here. Our waiter Raj recommended my partners meal and I have to say all the food was delicious and the service excellent.... More

Very nice indian food and the staff were very attentive throughout, providing guidance on the menu and the amount of food. Really enjoyed the Himalyan Hotpot- although this is a hot dish. My only frustration was the size of the booth which made it difficult to get in or out easily.

Went along on Thursday night with the family as my daughter had just finished her exams. Heera, our waiter for the night, was excellent in his meet and greet making us feel relaxed and his assistance throughout the night. The food was great, just like the service, so can't complain - best curry in a long time.

We turned up at the Ashoka at prime time - 6.45 on a Friday night, having just moved into the area and not unpacked our pots! Staff quickly rearranged tables for later bookings to find us space and the service was good. All starters and mains were really good - usual Ashoka standard. We'll be back now that we are... More
