Ashoka Ashton Lane is an Indian restaurant at 19 Ashton Lane in Glasgow’s West End. Its position on the neighbourhood’s well known cobbled lane gives the restaurant an energetic setting for lunch, dinner or a late meal close to Hillhead station.

Pakora is a Glasgow favourite here, with vegetable, chicken, haggis and fish versions among the starters. Poori, samosa, tandoori salmon and lamb chops add contrasting textures and flavours before the menu opens into grills and curries.

Chicken, lamb, paneer, vegetables, prawns and beef can be matched with styles such as rogan josh, saag, karahi bhoona, dhansac, balti and korma. House signatures include the Ashoka curry, while chasni and South Indian garlic chilli bring the sweet and sour or hotter flavours strongly associated with Glasgow Indian dining.

A substantial vegan menu gives plant based diners more than a simple vegetable curry, and separate lunch, small plate and drinks menus support different occasions. Guests can book a table for the full restaurant experience or use takeaway ordering when dining at home is more convenient.

Address: 19 Ashton Lane, Hillhead, Glasgow G12 8SJ, Scotland
