Not much to look at from outside but the most outstanding and authentically cooked pathia I have had. Food all cooked from scratch on ordering. Very attentive service. Definitely worth going.
Very welcoming family restaurant. Food is amazing everytime.
We have been eating the food here for over 20 years. It is by far the best Indian restaurant in Dundee....by miles. Fresh food, generous portions with loads of tandoori chicken. Amazing!
The food and service are great. One of the few places to do mulligatawny soup.
For once a fussy eater I have now found my forever go to for quality food , been going for years now and get treated more like family the food only gets better from barry and the cinnamon team , well worth a visit to either eat in or take away
My driving job takes me many places around the UK and tonight I'm in Dundee, after looking some reviews of places to eat I decided to try Cinnamon as I really fancied an Indian, To be Honest from the outside it doesn't look great and needs redecorating inside but that's where the bad points finish, the you guy that served me was very friendly and efficient, the food, Chef's Balti Special was absolutely delicious, Well in my top 3 Balti Dishes I've had around the UK in the the last 15 years, If you live in Dundee then you truly have a Great Indian Restaurant, Well worth a visit if you ever stay in Dundee.
Hands down the BEST meal I have had in a long time! Food was fresh, tasty and overall enjoyable start to finish!
What a gem of a find in Dundee... From the homemade onion chutney with the poppadoms to the Cinnamon special biryani and homemade cheese nan - the best Indian meal we've ever had...! Highly Recommended If you're in the area, look them up as you will not be disappointed
