Bukharah

Story

Bukharah brings the essence of healthy, authentic & creative Indian cuisine to the West of Scotland. Our very talented Head Chef, has put together a menu that offers authentic gastronomy for everyone.

We offer a wide selection of delicious and exciting dishes which appeal to all palates. If you enjoy dining out and sampling the finest Indian gastronomy, then Bukharah is the restaurant to try.

The plush surroundings create an inviting and relaxed atmosphere.

The restaurant, which is part of the recently reopened Lorne Hotel, bagged both the Restaurant of the Year and Chef of the Year prizes at the scottish curry ceremony in 2010.

The award-winning Bukharah continues to uphold its ethos for delivering healthy home-style Indian cuisine with flair. Charcoal walls, exposed blackened ventilation pipes and brickwork give this large restaurant a somewhat industrial feel, yet the designer lighting and chilled-out vibe create a pleasing contemporary space. Dark wooden screens and curtains offer privacy for either large parties or those wanting a more intimate experience. Familiar favourites such as samosas, dosas, puris and pakoras come with chicken, lamb, prawn or vegetarian options, but more creative starters straight from the tandoor, such as the spiced haddock, murgh tikka (buttered) chicken or achari mushrooms are enticingly beyond the ordinary. For mains, the chef’s speciality king prawn skewers marinated with a blend of subtle spices deliver a unique and seductive char-grill flavour, while the home-style lamb on the bone is tender and nicely spiced. Home-made desserts are often absent on Indian menus, but here lies a gem in the kulfi, India’s version of ice-cream, which is expertly crafted with delicately balanced flavours, accompanied by a refreshing mango purée.

To add to the enjoyment is a cocktail bar offering dangerously good cocktails. Our signature cocktail The Bilberry will leave you craving more.
