Came to Stirling today, to watch the cycling time trials. At 4 o'clock I decided it was time for food. I found this amazing restaurant. The food was above what I was expecting, as the place was empty. I had a fantastic 3 course meal for just over 8.00. great value and great service. I will definitely be back.

The restaurant is well located and very clean and well decorated inside. The set lunch is great value as the food is delicious, freshly prepared and well presented! The service staff like courteous Armjit, Gopi & the lovely lady is always friendly and welcoming. We would recommend Rana’s for Indian food while in Stirling town and definitely be back again.

Been here a few times, mostly in the evenings, during the week, with friends when it is quieter and you can relax more. Decided today while at that end of town to pop in for lunch and decided to try their buffet. There were 5 choices and the extras you would expect. In all fairness, it was a quick lunch, so did not indulge as I usually do. Rice, for me, was lovely, I like my rice dry (some restaurants, the rice is gooey or wet) the sauces were lovely and the chicken nicely cooked. Yes I will go back and yes, probably for lunch too.

We had a fabulous takeaway from here last week while on holiday. Best peshwari nann we've had. The tandoori mixed grill and starter platter for 2 was superb as were the sauces. If we'd had time we would have tried the buffet out. The flyer said under new management, I'd say they were doing a fab job. The best takeaway we've had for a long time hands down. Compliments to the chef and friendly staff at front of house!!

First time my partner and I have been to this restaurant. We had the three course menu at lunchtime. The fish pakora was freshly cooked. I had South Indian garlic chicken. Plenty of chunks of chicken in a lovely sauce. The service was good. We had soft drinks but the alcohol was reasonably priced. We will definitely return in the near future!

Been here 3 times and the food is delicious. Very reasonable priced and great service. Most definitely would come back My only negative is they don't advertise the buffet on weekdays. I didn't realise that I could have had the buffet, I thought it was just the set menu that was on offer.
