Glasgow Indian restaurant named the best in Scotland, as wedding venue scoops top award

At the Scottish Entertainment Awards, Swadish, on Ingram Street, won the Best Indian Restaurant Award, beating off competition from across Scotland.

There was also success for another three Glasgow venues, as The Auditorium at Òran Mór was given the award for Best Wedding Venue, The Record Factory in Partick, famous for its live music, won the Best Late Night Venue award, and Connolly’s Irish Bar won the Best Irish Bar award.

Swadish has scooped other awards in the past for its fine dining experience, which brings together seasonal Scottish ingredients and traditional and modern Indian culinary techniques.

The Trongate-based Charcoals earned a ‘highly recommended’ title in the same category.

Òran Mór has also won numerous awards for its wedding venue, which we recently ranked as among the best in Glasgow.

The Scottish Entertainment Awards aim to showcase and highlight the best of Scotland’s entertainment and hospitality industries.
