Cafe Salma

food was ok, portions were alsook. Service was fine although could've been better.
Was shocked to find that the prices of soft drinks were not on the menu. And that I was charged 9 pounds for five cans of juice. Thats £1.80 for a normal can of juice.
I only went after reading some good reviews but it wasnt all that!

Went to cafe salma with the misses couple of nights ago was dissapointed
First of all the food was not all that it's the same I have ordered before was not the same also a few times I've been and the prices are different then I took a good look at the menu prices and then when the bill arrived it was a quite a diffrence so I left and came back next day I spoke to the owner he said he is sorry he made a mistake it's not first time it happend to me I'm well disspointed £15.00 it's alot of money to be over charged

Arrived at this place last night with some work colleagues. First impression was one that reeked, come in and have a great meal. A well decorated and brightly lit restaurant which looked spotlessly clean. We were quickly shown to our table and two menus arrived. One which could be described as typical Indian and another with Moroccan dishes. Looking about at the other diners I could see several dishes that were simply stunning looking. Must have a glass of Coke to quench my expectations. We ordered from the Indian menu on our first visit, perhaps to test the standard. Garlic Okra,Chicken Chatt and Fish Pakora soon arrived and we were very surprised. The main course of Lamb Garam Masala was one of the best that I have ever had,not too salty and not at all over powering or claggy, which can often be the case. One friend had the mince and pea Madras and if hit the spot without hesitation. Chicken Tikka also was succulent and satisfying. No room for desert. The waiting staff were attentive and friendly with a good sense of humour when one of them asked a member of our group if he would refrain from texting as it was interfering with the Chefs frying Pan.

Overall a great new find for me and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone. I will be back soon.

My favourite Eastern food venue in Glasgow. The Owner, Hassan, and all the other staff are always very friendly and welcoming. The food is exceptional. The chicken pakora, and veg pakora are the best I've ever tasted. I've also had two sit down meals, and the service and cuisine were second to none. Real nice peiople and real nice food. Highly recommended

I have a lot of Pakistani friends. These guys know and have collectively tried all the curry houses in Glasgow. I used to go to "The Village" an excellent place in the South side and my previous Glasgow favourite for a long time.

However, when I tried Cafe Salma (I always feel the "cafe" branding doesn't do the place justice as it really is a quality resteraunt) I knew I would never go back.

As the above reviews say, Hassan is the friendliest guy in the world, even delivering to me personally and remembering me by name after only 2 or 3 visits....

The food? Well, unless you're a journo/critic who has tried every place in the country, I can assure you that this will be the best curry you will ever have had in Scotland! Big claim I know. But try it, sit in or take away, you wont be disappointed!

The friendliest place in Charing Cross.
We go here regularly for lunch. The service is quick and the food is great.
We are made to feel welcome ever time.
Would definately recommend Cafe Salma

Simply the best asian food in Glasgow! Authentic and fresh food in a great atmosphere. Love the casual dining setting. Also, I was recently shown round downstairs which has been brilliantly redecorated in a Moroccan style for a more formal setting (and a Moroccan menu in the future!) A hidden gem!

Sorry I missed out my rating. A five easily...

Went to Cafe Salma last night for a takeaway and I was very disappointed.

We ordered two different curries, one from the their 'speciality' section and one from the regular list of common curries. It literally took less than 5 minutes for it to be ready, which is never a good sign.

When we arrived home we found both curries were the same, with the only difference being one had an obnoxiously large amount of fresh corriander added.

If they have gone to the bother to create a takeaway menu, it would of been nice if they had treated us with the same respect as sitting in customers, especially as surrounding them is an excellent stock of other Indian restaurants who are far more intrested in their customers and repeat custom.

Will not be going back.

I have to agree with this review.

I ate there last night, as I was looking for somewhere that would be open after 11pm on a Sunday night.

The welcome I received was warm and friendly, and we were shown to our seat while given a small heater to beat off the sub-zero temperatures from outside.

First impressions were that it was a takeaway with a cafe tacked on, but once the food arrived, this perception changed - it was simply superb, worthy of much fancier and more expensive restaurants.
Beautifully flavoured, tender pieces of lamb, crisp, fragrant naan and fluffy rice. All throughout the meal, the proprietor/managers were over to politely ask if everything was okay - very helpful, and not overdone.

The only downside was the temperature and frequent draughts from the entrance door, which although mainly the fault of the dire Glasgow weather, could probably be sorted using an overdoor warm air curtain or something. Not a problem during the summer, though.

Great wee place to eat!
