Tempura
Casual Dining & Takeaway
13 Beresford Terrace, Ayr KA7 2EU
Since the launch of their first restaurant in Ayr town centre during lockdown (a fully licenced establishment), Tempura owners Brandon Van Rensburg and Mark Blake have been on a mission to take their lightly battered and sinfully good food to as many people across Ayrshire as possible. With additional take-away premises in Ayr, Kilmarnock and Prestwick now under their belt, in addition to the newly opened Troon restaurant, it’s fair to say that Tempura is hitting the mark on the local food front. The journey’s only just beginning though, with plans for a branch in Irvine afoot and ongoing expansion firmly on the horizon.
As the name suggests tempura is their specialty and you can get all of the classics (veg, chicken, prawn or mixed) in small or large portions with either salad or chips and a choice of dips. For the super hungry, there’s even a super-sized portion. It’s an easier eat than you might think once you get going. You can also enjoy the tempura of your choice packed into a tortilla wrap with fresh salad and skin on chips or loaded onto a Caesar salad with crispy lettuce, crunchy croutons, fresh parmesan and a creamy Caesar dressing. They can even be nacho’d or burgerfied. With vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options on offer it really is your tempura your way.
The Famous Filthy brings you hot crisp golden fries topped with fresh chillies, cheese, chicken tempura, crispy bacon and a smothering of house sauce. Something missing for you? Not to worry. There’s always the deluxe version; the Filthy Mac Fries which give you all of the above with a hearty portion of mac and cheese on top. Now there’s a feed.
Bao buns, tempura halloumi sticks and tempura haggis balls are all popular choices on the menu and there are some ridiculously good sides to load up on or snack on whatever your appetite (who wouldn’t want some tater tots in there or some chilli parmesan fries). Specials are always available too with innovative combinations and endless mouthwatering takes on tempura to tempt you. With sit-in or take-away available you can get your Tempura fix any time, any place.
