  “We went here as a foursome on a Monday early evening. The food was very good and it seemed that there was only one server who was very efficient serving several tables. When I went to the toilet it wasn’t a good reflection to see dirty plates piled up in the corridor and they are obviously cutting back on staff in the quiet periods. Very good value and would return when next in Glasgow.”

  “Great food. Easy to order. Nice service. Good people. I'd recommend to order more rather than less. Portions are smaller. Really enjoyed it.”

  “Visited yesterday with my wife and had an excellent lunch with cocktails and wine too. Retirement life is good 😊. We’re never been disappointed at Dhabba as the food is delicious and served by friendly and helpful staff. I was surprised that the restaurant was not busy as I would have expected given the quality of the food and large number of visitors into the city for the Commonwealth Games. They’re missing out on a real treat. The drinks are also very reasonably priced and can vouch for the Dark ‘n’ Stormy cocktail. A firm favourite for us. Look forward to our next visit.”

  “We had a 2pm booking on a Tuesday and the restaurant was nice and quiet. We had the 2 course lunch with a cocktail each. These were prepared from scratch. Food is delicious with excellent portion size. Staff were very accommodating and helpful over a booking issue where I didn't realise there was a 24 hr grace period for the booking confirmation by the restaurant. (I'd booked it late on the Monday). We will go back definitely.”

  “This place was unreal! We went for mothers day and got a 5pm afternoon tea deal and it was truly delicious. The staff were so attentive and explained each individual dish and how to eat them etc. The dessers were gorgous aswell. Would highly recommend this place and will definitely be going back to try the dinner menu!”

  “Amazing food here! Drinks were also really reasonably priced. We had the lunch menu and everything was delicious and quickly brought to our table. The waiter packed my left overs up in a take away box perfectly too which was so kind of him. Lovely place!”

  “The food is understated, beautiful, and absolutely delicious! Generous portions and fairly priced! We had three lamb dishes, a chicken biryani, two butter chickens, and several starters. There wasn't a single miss!! A must go for anyone! Sad there won't be one when we get back to Canada!”

  “The Dhaba Glasgow – A Hidden Gem! This place is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, the vibes were warm and welcoming. The food? Incredible. We tried the Chicken Tikka Masala, some homestyle Indian dishes, and the Daal – all bursting with authentic flavors. The starters were just as impressive. The Vada Pav was outstanding – honestly, better than what I’ve had in Mumbai. And the Dahi Vada? Simply wow. Light, flavorful, and refreshing. Every dish was a 10/10. The staff were super friendly and made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend if you’re in Glasgow and craving proper, delicious Indian food. The Dhaba is where it’s at!”

  “Shoutout to Shahari – A True Gem at Dhaba! I had the absolute pleasure of dining at Dhabba during my trip to Scotland, and let me just say—this might’ve been the best food I had during my entire stay. But beyond the incredible flavors, it was the hospitality that left a lasting impression, thanks to one amazing person: Shahari. I was running late to catch my bus and showed up just as the restaurant was getting ready to close. I figured I might be turned away, but instead, Shahari welcomed me with a warm smile and said, “As long as you order quickly, we’ll take care of you.” And wow—did she ever. She gave me fantastic recommendations (you’ll see the dishes in the photo), and every single bite was beyond belief. Authentic, rich, perfectly spiced—it hit all the right notes. But what really made the moment special was how genuine and sweet Shahari was. She wasn’t just doing her job—she was making sure I felt welcome, seen, and cared for. And it wasn’t just me—she was juggling two other tables with the same kindness, energy, and professionalism. You could see how much she cares about people, and it truly reflects well on the restaurant. Whoever hired her made the best decision. She even packed my food carefully so I could make it to my bus on time—and I did, safely and happily full. Thank you, Shahari, for your heart, your service, and your warmth. You turned what could’ve been a stressful day into a memorable one. I’ll be recommending Dhabba to anyone visiting Glasgow—not only for the food but for the exceptional people like you who make it shine.”

  “Hosts were so lovely and helpful. They were also extremely friendly to not just ourselves but to everyone around the restaurant. The food was the best Indian food I’ve had in Glasgow. Honestly amazing.”
