"After reading the reviews, we were hoping to discover an excellent Indian restaurant. Unfortunately, this one did not meet our expectations. The starters were okay, but the main courses were lacking. The Tandoori mix was especially disappointing, and the special biryani wasn't much better. We are only giving it a 3-star rating because of the friendly staff. Dining in for dinner cost around £90-100 per person. The food quality was a 2, service was a 4, and the atmosphere was a 4."

This restaurant serves the best Naan in the UK, without a doubt. I have dined at numerous Indian restaurants and typically opt for lamb Madras, and I must say that this was the best I have ever had. The service was excellent and matched the quality of the meal. Overall, I would rate the food, service, and atmosphere all a perfect 5.

I had a beautiful lunch here while visiting on holiday. Service was excellent, food was delicious, and most importantly I left with a smile and full belly. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Dunfermline looking for authentic Indian/Nepalese cuisine! The vegetable pakora and chicken mushroom curry is fantastic Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch

Got takeaway from Namaste last night and will definitely be back! The staff were really lovely and they also suggested we order the set meal for 2 which was only £1 more than our order but included a starter and popadoms. It was all delicious and we even had left overs for lunch Parking: We were lucky and got parked right at the door but it was around 7pm Service: Take out

Wow! What a taste sensation! A lovely chilled out atmosphere with no rush. Polite, attentive team, what a breath of fresh air from what has become the norm with eating out nowadays. We will have to go back to try all the tempting delights on their menu! My meal was so delicious but my husbands was equally so! Definitely going back with our friends and family. Cannot recommend this place enough.

"oh mann, dhoom. visited dhoom for the third time on the 6th april, 2022 and had such experience that I think it's high time that I checked and let the rest of the world know about this absolutely stunning, hybrid Indian streatery / fine dining room experience in the center of dunfermline. as mentioned, I was at dhoom a few times and always had a wonderful experience. the personal is friendly, the restaurant is stylish and always busy, and eating is absolutely to die. they make an extensive menu à la carte, which includes many traditional Indian dishes and modern hybrid dishes, and a tasting menu that not only very competitive price, but transforms eating into a fine culinary experience that is worth it. the visit today was different. the chef d prasad has started a new menu with the name dehli6 after visiting dehli and explores extensive new dishes for his restaurant. we arrived this evening after the online booking for an early dinner and were cared for by the chef himself to sit down, who told us the history of his new menu and the background of the dishes. so we were served to the Dehli6 menu of the chef himself and through the coming of each cook completely by luck (and friendliness of the chef) we had an incredibly personal culinary experience and to speak with the personal, it looks as if this was emulsified by the waiting staff in busy times. they are all very proud of their food and serving standards and my goth, it shows. eating was absolutely beautiful, of course, we chose the tasty menus with an option for a main pane masala and a jungle that were both some of the most nuanced and tasty curries I ever had. absolutely amazing. dhoom is an absolute good at d prasad and his personal, and they should all be incredibly proud of the work they have put in. we will be back for a fourth, fifth and sixth visit. superb."

"**Atmosphere:** The restaurant is small but feels cozy without being cramped. On this visit, we were seated at a lovely window table, which made for an inviting and comfortable experience. When it gets busy, the atmosphere is lively, and the music is at just the right volume to enhance the ambiance without turning into a shouting match. Perfect! **Food:** We were there to celebrate my daughter's 30th birthday with a party of five. For starters, we tried the Summer BBQ Picanha steak, scallops, buffalo mozzarella salad, and Iberian Black Pig Char Siu. I sampled a bit of everything, and they were all delicious, with the Summer BBQ steak standing out. For our main courses, we had monkfish, three Picanha steaks, and BBQ Maple chicken—again, everything was delightful, but the monkfish was truly exceptional. Our sides included truffle chips, rooster chips, tempura broccoli, and roasted sweet corn, all complementing the meal perfectly. Desserts featured sticky toffee pudding, burnt Basque cheesecake, grilled pineapple, chocolate with white port, and a cheese selection. I only managed to try the cheese, as everyone was enjoying their desserts too much to share! We enjoyed a few expertly crafted cocktails, the Quickening Shiraz from a thoughtfully curated wine list, and some dessert wines and port to accompany our sweets—all were fantastic. The portion sizes were just right, making three courses manageable. **Service:** This is where the family-run nature of the restaurant truly shines. The service is polite, friendly, attentive, and laid-back. Our visit felt leisurely, and I never felt rushed, even when the restaurant was busy. The staff checked in on us just the right amount to ensure we were enjoying our meals, and I truly appreciated that there was no pressure to order more drinks or any upselling—just a thoroughly enjoyable experience overall. **Additional Insights:** The restaurant is reasonably easy to access, with only a small step at the entrance, and the interior is spotless and well-maintained. The stone walls add to the charming atmosphere, and the rear wall has a unique texture that invites touch—you really have to experience it yourself. The restrooms are immaculate as well. **Disclaimer:** My wife and I have visited Jack O'Bryan's several times since moving to Dunfermline, and while we consider it a special treat, we often find ourselves looking for excuses to indulge a bit more frequently than we probably should. However, this consistency in the quality of food, service, and atmosphere is why we keep returning. **Final Tips:** The menu changes seasonally, so it’s a good idea to check their website to see what’s available. I highly recommend making a reservation, especially for weekends, as it’s essential to secure a table. Keep up the great work, Jack O'Bryan's!"
