Quick info
About The New Turban Tandoori
On Fenwick Place in Glasgow, The New Turban Tandoori is an Indian takeaway with a tandoor oven for cooking alongside the kitchen. Poppadums and paratha are common starters with a meal, and pakora and spicy onions round out the side orders. Lamb dishes, including lamb Pardesi, and bhuna feature among the mains, with naan bread served large. Portions across the menu run generous. The room takes walk-ins when space allows, though tables can be harder to secure at weekends. It opens daily, evenings only, and serves the meal for dine-in, pick-up, or delivery.

Customer Review Summary
Diners most often return for generous portions of lamb curry, with the bhuna and the lamb Pardesi singled out for flavour and meat that melts in the mouth. Close behind come the huge naans and the tasty paratha, with one regular recommending the pakora and spicy onions. Leftovers are said to hold up the next day. Staff are repeatedly described as friendly and welcoming, and food arrives hot and quickly, including by delivery. The recurring complaint is greasy naan: one diner found a garlic and coriander naan too greasy, and another says the naan can be a little oily. One reviewer had to ask for water three times and reorder wine twice, and another mocked the photography for the moonlit chicken. Weekend tables can be tricky, and a couple of reviewers advise calling ahead or booking in advance. One diner on a packed Valentine's night still found the service good.

“We went late on a Sunday evening and, having never been before, weren’t quite sure what to expect. We’d heard great things from people we know, and it absolutely didn’t disappoint! The food looked fantastic and tasted even better. The portions were generous enough that we even had leftovers to take home — and, honestly, they tasted just as good the following day! What a fantastic place, with great food and extremely fair prices. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Enjoy it time and time again. I have been coming here on every visit for a few years. Reliably good food, fast, friendly service and good prices. Pre-theatre, regular menu - you’ll get the Glasgow curry and naan you always wanted. And do get pakora and spicy onions, too! Very much looking forward to the next visit, pick-up or delivery.”

“Gorgeous food, delivered quickly by a friendly driver. Food was hot, full of flavour and the lamb Pardesi was stunning. Thanks! We will be back.”

“Mixed feelings and feel bad slamming the place but this is shocking misguided photography hahah.... You order the moonlit chicken and looks like they tried to cook it with moonlight”
- Fiona Catherine
“Excellent food, great taste, very fresh and good portions. Slightly on the pricier side but they make up for it in the massive portions, we both had lamb dishes and it’s the most red meat I’ve had in a curry at a restaurant! And not only that, it was so flavoursome and melted in the mouth. The bhuna was incredible, so much flavour and the naans were huge and also extremely tasty”
