"Quick pick up time after a holiday Friday around Ayr, was a nice surprise. Food was well packed and hot when we got home. Initially we went to the wrong branch for pickup but the staff phoned ahead and checked our order with the other branch who were waiting at the door for our arrival. Friendly, helpful courteous service. Veg pakora was light crispy on the outside with lots of fresh moist veg on the inside. First time having yellow (turmeric? pakora sauce which was a nice: fresh, spicy and picante contrast to the pakora. Special tikka was the best we've had in Ayrshire- large chunks of succulent marrinated, chicken with just a little charcoal flavour on the outside. Tikka pieces are so often dried out, over charred or hidden in too much marinade- this was perfect. The creamy curry sauce that came with the special tikka had an amazing mix depth of flavour with: sweet tomato, creamy butter, aromatic cardamom, a little heat from chilli and a nice sharp citrus finish. South Indian garlic chilli Lamb had lots of tender flaking lamb chunks in a thick, satisfying onion, garlic chilli base that tasted fresh- not too hot, runny or greasy like so many other restaurants. Vegetarian celiac wife was very happy with Tarka Daal Saag Paneer; which are so often an after thought with thin, water, bland or lacking in depth of flavour. Pilau rice was multi coloured, well seasoned and very appealing for the children; again, really well cooked with separated grains and a little bite for texture. Large, moist nan bread with that lovely clay oven flavour black onion seeds running through it. Honestly the best Indian food we've had in Ayrshire and we've tried almost everywhere from Kilmarnock, Irvine, Troon, Prestwick Ayr. Can't wait to try more dishes come back again"

very nice eating staff was great with children. it's a bit expensive, but it's worth it if they like a good curry.

Highly recommend. Fantastic lunch and great vale. Have been going to Ayr India for years and they are simply the best. I wouldn't go anywhere else for Indian food. Lovely friendly staff, superb food and lovely restaurant

Sunday night, and I changed a booking last minute from 5 to 14 people! Ayr India looked after us beautifully. Very quick and attentive, both drinks and food came out impressively quickly, this doesn’t often happen when you are a large group. Delicious and lovely atmosphere. Thank you Ayr India!

Wow, I have visited some good Indian restaurants in my time, but this one is definitely the best I have ever been to, no doubt about it. The food was top-notch, beautifully presented, and the staff were really friendly. I hope they open another location near Cambridge so I can frequent it more often.

The dining experience was excellent and the staff made it even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was lovely. My 7-year-old daughter had the chicken tikka from the children's menu for her main dish and she really enjoyed it, despite being a picky eater. I usually order the madras curry, but it wasn't on the menu this time and that didn't bother me at all. Overall, I was very impressed with the whole experience. Thank you.

Visiting the area just for the night. Fancied some Indian food and found here via Google. First impressions, it's a Saturday night and nobody is here. Must be bad! How wrong could I be. Cheerful and friendly waiting staff, food served quickly and the quality was excellent. Not sure why no-one is here, unless the other restaurants in town are better. Price wise, reasonable. Had cheaper, but quality comes at a price. Strongly recommend.

First lunch out in over 27 weeks and boy did Ayr India come up with the goods. Food was sublime! Popadoms, spiced onions, mango chutney and tandoori dip... Haggis pakora and chicken tikka flatbread... Followed by chicken tikka chasni and lamb Karahi with rice and the best naan I've tasted! Good social distancing and hygiene. Very friendly and attentive service... and as it was our first visit... Complimentary liqueurs of our choice... Bailey's and a Glayva. First time in Ayr India but most certainly not our last. Highly recommended.

My wife and I visited a restaurant last night. As promised when I booked online, we received a very warm welcome. The service was top-notch and very friendly. The food was amazing, even though I forgot to order rice. The portion was generous, with delicious meat and plenty of sauce for the naan bread. I ordered a beer, which was cold and delicious, and even received a complimentary glass of beer before the bill. There are few places where you can eat so well and enjoy a beautiful sunset over Arran. We will definitely be returning. Thank you.

my wife and I visited a meal last night. as promised when I booked online, we received a very warm welcome, the service was first class and very friendly. the food was fantastic and although I forgot to order rice, it was really not necessary that the part was plentiful with beautiful delicate meat and lots of sauce for the naanbrot (and I am a big kepp.) I ordered a beer and it was cold and delicious and I even got a free glass beer before we bill. there are few places to eat so well and to observe a beautiful sunset over arran. we will return. Thank you.
