tl;dr:
avoid
this
establishment.
I
am
sure
I
am
going
against
many
others,
based
on
the
reviews
I
have
read
for
this
place.
Nonetheless,
this
has
to
be
one
of
the
most
disappointing
dining
experiences
I've
ever
had.
I
was
travelling
alone
and
spending
a
weekend
in
Glasgow.
Consistently,
one
of
the
greatest
highlights
whenever
I
get
to
come
to
the
UK
is
the
Indian
food.
It
is
the
only
country
on
earth
that
I
have
found
whose
Indian
food
is
comparable
to
what
can
be
found
in
India.
Additionally,
it
has
been
guaranteed
to
be
satisfying,
until
now.
I
had
been
walking
for
a
while
through
the
city
enjoying
sites
and
was
examining
a
menu
in
the
window
of
a
different
establishment.
While
reading,
someone
came
up
to
me
and
asked
if
I
was
looking
for
really
good
Indian
food.
Indeed
I
was
and
they
directed
me
to
this
place,
which
was
only
a
block
away.
I
was
excited
at
the
thought
of
a
great
meal
at
the
end
of
a
long
day.
I
arrived
and
the
manager,
who
was
extremely
polite,
told
me
there
was
a
10
minute
wait,
the
place
was
rather
busy
and
getting
busier.
I
was
more
than
happy
to
do
so.
When
seated,
I
ordered
the
saag
paneer
(extra
spicy),
a
mushroom
dish
(extra
spicy),
and
a
glass
of
water
(the
first
two
can
be
seen
in
the
picture).
My
server
confirmed
my
spice
tolerance
and
left
with
my
order,
this
was
the
last
I
saw
of
her.
The
food
arrived
in
a
timely
manner,
brought
out
by
a
porter
from
the
kitchen
who
seemed
surprised
that
I
did
not
have
a
plate
yet.
Thankfully,
the
plate
was
quickly
fetched.
They
say
the
first
bite
is
with
the
eye,
and
it
was
a
good
bite
indeed.
Unfortunately,
it
was
the
only
good
bite
I
had.
The
food
was
medium
spicy
at
best
and
very
lacking
in
any
other
flavour.
I
don't
think
it's
unreasonable
to
think
that
mushrooms
with
barely
any
taste
of
umami
are
unacceptable.
The
saag
paneer
was
something
a
street
vendor
I
knew
in
Delhi
would
be
ashamed
to
serve.
Nobody
came
of
their
own
volition
to
ask
me
how
my
food
was.
About
10
minutes
after
I
took
two
bites
and
gave
up,
I
was
able
to
flag
down
the
manager.
I
explained
the
situation
as
I
have
just
done
in
this
review.
To
his
credit,
he
offered
to
try
to
fix
the
situation
and
said
that
this
was
most
certainly
not
the
experience
I
should
have
had.
Unfortunately,
between
the
abysmal
attention
by
my
server
and
the
lackluster
performance
by
the
chef,
I
had
no
confidence
in
this
establishment's
ability
to
salvage
the
situation.
I
declined
to
take
him
up
on
his
offer
and
left.
As
a
solo
traveler,
I
have
experienced
prejudice
by
restaurants
serving
a
table
for
one.
I
do
not
know
if
this
was
the
case
in
this
instance.
However,
the
other
patrons
around
me
seem
to
be
getting
much
more
frequent
visits
from
their
servers,
none
of
whom
were
dining
alone.
I
would
suggest
anyone
considering
giving
this
restaurant
their
patronage
to
only
do
so
if
your
alternative
is
starvation.
Just
be
careful,
you
may
succumb
to
thirst.
The
water
never
arrived.
