Part of popular family of modern Indian restaurants, the Spice of Life on Argyle Street (behind Hill...head station) is as engaging as the name suggests. The place really comes into its own at night, when illustrative murals take on a new interest as an imaginative spectrum of lights subtly change the scene. To get the most out of the Spice of Life, most regulars have a pre-dinner cocktail in the bar before ascending to the balcony for a curry feast, where booths and tables for two provide wonderfully cosy spaces for couples, lovers and friends. Being close to both Byres Road and Glasgow city centre, diners tend to be a genuine mix. The food is good, classic, affordable Glasgow curry stuff, with the 16 most popular dishes listed together so you don't have to trawl all three pages of the menu.

Stravaigin is old Scots for 'wander', a word that nicely encapsulates the restaurant's ethos. Both t...he menu and décor evolve; there's a wonderful creativity about this West End favourite. Locally-sourced ingredients are used to create imaginative international dishes such as Indonesian pork balls with vermicelli noodle jam jar salad. For something closer to home, try the haggis - recently voted the best in Scotland. The subtly dark, leather- wallpapered basement restaurant shares a menu and nautical theme with the less formal café bar above. Service is informal yet informed. The staff know the menu and wines inside out and are adept at keeping cool under pressure, especially during the pre-theatre scrum. Exciting , affordable food without the foodie formalities.
