Lasan - Aberdeenshire

If you're in search of authentic Indian cuisine, particularly curries, this restaurant may not be the right choice. Most of the curries seemed to have a similar tomato base and taste. We ordered the lamb Rogan josh and chicken Balti, but unfortunately, both dishes tasted very similar due to the overwhelming presence of tomato paste. As travelers from England, we couldn't help but notice the lack of authentic flavor compared to the restaurants we are used to back home. Our advice to the restaurant would be to cater to the preferences of their guests and customize the dishes accordingly.

I had the Baingan Bhajee to start followed by the Chicken Passanda with veggie rice and a keema naan. It was all absolutely delicious! Portions didn’t look massive but I was completely stuffed and left loads. Will probably share rice and bread next time. Decor in the restaurant is beautiful. The waiting on staff were all delightful and very professional. Gents could do with a good clean.

I visited this restaurant on Wednesday with my partner. The food was excellent, especially the chicken chilli masala. The staff were friendly and the prices were reasonable. The place was clean and well-maintained. I would highly recommend it.

Super nice place to eat outside of Aberdeen. as the food was so delicious we decided to visit the same location a second time. the host was super friendly... just great experience!

We had a party of 7(2 being children) for my birthday. The service was extremely poor. Staff were not chatty or welcoming. I advised the waiter that I had meerkat movies 2 for 1 offer and was not happy about this. The food itself was lovely but like I said the staff and atmosphere of the restaurant wasn’t its normal self. I think the restaurant has been taken over by someone else. On asking the bill, the 2 for 1 meals had not been taken off. And the staff were reluctant to take it off. Even to the point that they lied that it had been taken off and that was the correct bill amount. On leaving the restaurant after paying the bill we were stopped by a very aggressive and unapproachable staff member possibly the manager advising that we hadn’t paid the correct amount and we were due him more money. He was very arrogant and rude. I explained that I come to the restaurant regularly and also order takeaways from them and have never had such an awful experience. As regular visitors we are also usually offered a complimentary drink at the end this was not the case even though we were there and celebrating my birthday. After leaving the restaurant feeling very annoyed and knowing full wel I had been charged more than I should have I noticed in their Facebook page that kids eat free every Sunday, and includes two courses. I was charged for both children’s meals and they were not offered a dessert or ice cream. After many years visiting Lasan I can confirm that they have lost some very loyal and regular customers. We will not be visiting again and I would not recommend going to others.
