Indian Orchard

You'll find yourself on Dumbarton Road in Partick, where Indian Orchard sits amongst the neighbourhood's proper mix of independent spots and old-school Glasgow charm. This isn't the kind of place that's trying to reinvent curry or stick a molecular gastronomy spin on things—they're just brilliant at what they do, which is authentic north Indian food cooked with real technique. The kitchen knows what it's doing with spices, and you can taste the difference between this and the standard high street operation. Go with an open mind and an appetite.
