The service was slow, the waiters weren't particularly friendly, the food was overly spicy for the people who ordered medium spicy foods, despite the fact they had previously enjoyed meals from there. The naan bread was still dough in places where it hadn't been cooked properly. They ran out of coke and Cobra beer. I won't be going back.

Popped in on the off chance. Got a table no problem.other half had king prawn red curryy I had chicken jalfrazi with mushroom pilau and a to die for chilli and garlic naan. Both meals piping hot and really tasty. Staff very friendly chuffed to bits that they weren't coming over every 5 mins asking if I'm OK. (which I hate) believe me if it's not OK you'll know. Can't recommend this place enough. May go back tomorrow to try something else

Hassan and his team are a real family who always bring the most exceptional service. Other places in town (Maisha and Jhangir) do not even come close to the quality, service or experience. As a former St Andrews student, I would visit all of the above and Tulsi always stood head and shoulders above the rest. I've hosted large dinners of 50+ and intimate dinners with just 1 other person. Tulsi has always exceeded expectations. Very sorry to hear of the recent fire and saddened not to enjoy another meal when recently visiting. Look forward to dining there again soon!

My order- which at the time of writing this was placed at 6:00pm- has still yet to show. I phoned 3 times to get some clarity on when my food would be showing up. I was told it had already been delivered. It quite clearly hasn't. And when I phoned again to chase the food once more they would not let me voice my concerns. St. Andrews is a small town and they have delivered to me in the past. I do not believe that the driver got lost.

Overpriced meals but tablecloths and napkin looking good. Attentive service but food can be tricky. My point was rice with dried up vegetables ( like from the express packet) and squid which was first deep fried in batter then cooked in peanut sauce. Awful combination and again looked as if was from pre-prepared frozen stock which I don’t expect from that kind of restaurant. It was empty when other places were very busy- that should have sparked the warning.

Attracted by the many TripAdvisor reviews we decided to give it a try but really I wished I hadn't bothered when I saw the pakoras: Clearly not freshly made, cold and dry. They didn't taste nice at all, especially the chicken ones. The main marginally better. Waste of what could have been a good evening.

Worst curry We’ve ever had-inedible. Ordered spiced onions to start which had obviously been made in 1998 then sat in the fridge since. Pakora undercooked. Both curries we had ordered were clearly not fresh, and looked as if they had been sitting for a long time,with a layer of oil on top the butter chicken. Only positive was the garlic naan,which actually tasted like it was fresh out the oven.. If you want a good curry experience,head to glasgow
Great meal, great atmosphere and outstanding service. We had one minor complaint about the food which was immediately noticed and addressed in a most professional way. This is a great restaurant/business.

Had a really good meal back in July here sitting in. Exhausted by travel, we got a takeaway tonight. 2 for Indian, 2 for Thai. My beef (if it was beef) was totally tasteless and I ate only a couple of pieces before binning. My son's chicken teriyaki was dry and virtually inedible. The guys who got the Indian food were happy as it was uniformly tasty. Advice... Drop the Thai. We're unlikely to be back but think you're taking on too much. Oh... And we had to wait 1hr20mins for it. 15mins after the latest just eat told us it would be ??

Superb food and service. I’ve been coming here for years and it never disappoints. The curries are very well made and truly authentic. The best naan bread I’ve ever had. Service is professional and attentive. Everyone in our party thought it was first class. Best food we’ve eaten this week by a mile!

This had been recommended to us and didn't disappoint. We ordered haggis pakora and garlic king prawns as starters to which I was informed quickly that the king prawns were off the menu so changed to tandoori chicken wings (chicken chatt). For the mains we ordered the lamb massaman thai curry with udon noodle and Jhalapani (also lamb) with pilau rice. All the food was delicious and the portions size spot on. Over the two courses we had three spirits with mixers each so when the bill came we were shocked that it was a lot less than we expected. The staff couldn't have more helpful and considering how busy the restaurant was we could forgive the time we waited between courses as our only gripe. In all great value, nice venue, nice staff and good food

Simply this is a very good indian restaurant in the cradle of golf and university boffins.We were staying in town 2 nights.On first night we were on a dinner search walkabout and chanced on this venue on Market Street. The food is delicious. I had Tandoori lamb tikka with all the trimmings, rice and Roti. My friend had Tandoori chicken off the bone and her husband whose not a spicy food fan had delicious fish and chips.I asked for an accompanying Patia sauce which i find compliments the lamb which was cooked to tender perfection This was one of my top lamb dish experiences ever in a lifetime of chasing good indian food. The restaurant has unique decoration being adorned in famous movie posters but in indian language. The staff were,friendly and attentive, nothing was too much trouble. I thoroughly recommend a visit here if you are in town and fancy a delicious curry. Portions are huge, we had a lot of dishes including pakoras, poppadums, onion chutney and Roti bread. Our bill for 3 persons was £78. Worth it for the quality on offer.
