  6. Agacán

    With a charismatic owner, quirky decor and wonderfully aromatic Turkish specialities (Iskender kebab is our favourite), it's no wonder that you have to book ahead at this little spot on a corner, a 20 minute walk up Perth Rd from the centre­. If you can't get a table, you can settle for takeaway.

    Dil'se

    Dundee loves a curry, and nobody does it better than this sleek modern Bangladeshi restaurant most of the way up Perth Rd. The bold, contemporary approach extends beyond the delicious old favourites to new dishes, such as Mas Bangla, which brings the subcontinent to Scots salmon.

  8. André’s

    A quaint little corner that appears to have been fashioned out of someone’s attic bedroom, André’s nevertheless offers an authentic taste of France with a small, ever-changing menu of French classics ranging from onion soup to boeuf bourguignon.

    Jahangir

    The food is good, but it’s worth going to this curry house for the décor alone – pure Hollywood Moghul, with a turbaned doorman, an over-the-top tent, and a tinkling fountain inhabited by live goldfish and carp (no, they’re not on the menu).

  10. Ship Inn

    On the seafront around the corner from the Fisherman's is the snug, wood-panelled, 19th-century Ship Inn, which serves top-notch dishes ranging from gourmet haddock and chips to venison steaks; you can eat in the upstairs restaurant, or down in the bar (bar meals £7 to £9). It's always busy, so get there early to grab a seat.
