Ali Shan, a cherished institution on Glasgow's south side, continues to evoke a spectrum of emotions. Patrons appreciate its unpretentious decor and extensive menu, with many vouching for its authentic flavors and generous portions. Regulars praise the warm service from dedicated staff. However, recent experiences have revealed inconsistencies, with reports of bland takeout and chaotic dining during busy periods. Despite some complaints, the restaurant’s loyal visitors hail its unique dishes and inviting atmosphere, asserting that Ali Shan remains a beloved choice for Indian cuisine. Whether for takeaway or dining in, the enduring charm keeps customers returning for more.
