Ashoka Muirhead is an Indian restaurant at 92 Cumbernauld Road in Chryston. It focuses on North Indian cooking in a setting designed for regular dinners, family meals and celebrations.

The menu moves from street food inspired starters and pakora to curries, biryani and dishes cooked in the clay oven. Tandoori chicken, lamb, paneer and Scottish salmon demonstrate the range of ingredients treated with spiced yoghurt marinades and aromatic seasoning.

Sharing platters offer a practical way to sample several starters, including separate meat, combination and vegan selections. Curries range across different heat levels and regional ideas, while rice and breads complete the meal.

The breadth of vegetarian and vegan dishes makes the restaurant workable for groups with mixed preferences. Guests with allergies, intolerances or dietary requirements should confirm ingredients, spice blends and preparation methods with staff before ordering.

Address: 92 Cumbernauld Road, Chryston, Glasgow G69 9AB, Scotland
