About
As one of the elder statesmen of Glasgows curry scene, Rawalpindi has been serving Indian favourites to a wide demographic since 1979. The restaurant itself has moved with the times; a recent facelift resulting in neutral tones that make for a warm and relaxing environment in the midst of Sauchiehall Streets boisterous hubbub. The menu is full of familiar dishes from crisp pakora to a chicken puri that skillfully combines tomato tanginess with just the right hint of spices. The tandoori range includes monkfish and scallops, but for the more carnivorous, theres a mixed grill of succulent chicken on the bone, chunky seikh kebab, battered king prawns and tender lamb tikka. The jangli murgh sees generous chicken chunks served in a creamy sauce bursting with garlic and fresh coriander. From a largely reliable range of sides, the more adventurous roghni naan, with cashew nuts and egg yolk, is worth exploring. This is a restaurant that specialises in time-honoured, traditional dishes, and with a generations worth of experience, its little wonder it does it so well.
