"If you are looking for true Afghan flavour, Aljazeera Restaurant is an absolute must-visit! The Qabli Pilau is the stuff of legend—the rice is perfectly steamed and fragrant, with the sweet carrots and raisins complementing the unbelievably tender lamb shank. It's a culinary masterpiece. Beyond the rice, the kebabs are charcoal-grilled to perfection, smoky, juicy, and seasoned just right. Whether you get the Kobeda or the Lamb Tikka, they simply melt in your mouth. Authentic, hearty, and sensational food. Highly, highly recommended!"
I live in manchester for 23 years,and I'm telling you,If you are searching for the best Qabli Pilau and grilled meats in the city, look no further. This isn't just a meal; it's an experience that truly delights all the senses. The star of the show, hands down, is the Qabli Pilau. The rice itself is a masterclass in texture and flavor—perfectly cooked, aromatic, and infused with savory depth. The generous portion of succulent lamb hidden beneath is fall-off-the-bone tender, perfectly complemented by the sweet carrots and raisins. It is comfort food elevated to fine dining. Equally impressive were the Grilled Chicken and the various Kababs. The chicken was marinated beautifully, grilled to smoky perfection with a crisp skin, yet juicy and moist inside. The kababs were expertly seasoned and charred, delivering an incredible burst of traditional spices with every bite. Beyond the phenomenal food, the service here is, quite frankly, the best I have ever experienced. From the moment we walked in, the staff was attentive, warm, and genuinely dedicated to ensuring a flawless dining experience. Our server was knowledgeable about every dish, offered excellent recommendations, and was incredibly efficient without ever feeling intrusive. Aljazeera restaurant has achieved a rare balance: outstanding, authentic food paired with truly exceptional hospitality. It’s clear that passion goes into everything they do. Five stars aren't enough—this is a must-visit destination for any food lover. Highly Recommended Dishes: Qabli Pilau, Mixed Kabab Platter
Amazing Food and Service at Aljazeera! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ You absolutely have to try Aljazeera! This place is truly special and has the best Qabli Pilau and grilled food you will find anywhere. If you want great food and perfect service, this is where you need to go. Eating here is a wonderful experience from start to finish. The main dish, the Qabli Pilau, is the star. The rice is cooked perfectly and smells so good with spices like saffron. The lamb underneath is super soft and falls apart easily—it practically melts in your mouth! The sweet carrots and raisins mixed in taste fantastic and make the dish complete. It's truly delicious and comforting food. The grilling here is also top-notch. The Grilled Chicken and all the Kababs are cooked perfectly. They have a great smoky taste and a little crispiness on the outside, but the meat inside is still incredibly juicy and tender. They use great spices, and every bite is full of real, traditional flavor. And let's talk about the service—it's honestly the best service I've ever had. The staff are so nice, professional, and genuinely happy to help. Our server knew everything about the menu and was quick and helpful without rushing us or getting in the way. Aljazeera gets everything right: amazing, real food and incredible customer care. Five stars just aren't enough—you absolutely must visit this spot!

One of the best and tastiest food spots in the UK! We tried the Kabuli Pulao and grilled chicken – the flavours were out of this world. The meat was so tender, and the rice was packed with flavour. We absolutely loved it. An Egyptian lady served us (wish I remembered her name!) – her service was absolutely amazing. Honestly, I really hope this place goes far.
Must go!!! Amazing food, made fresh and served nice and hot. Affordable. They have a front seating are not sure if it is wheelchair friendly unfortunately as I've never used the ground floor seating are, they have additional seating upstairs which can be accessed through the back. The back entrance is convenient as it is through the carpark (not owned by the restaurant). Staff are friendly and amazing.
Thank you so much for your food delivery yesterday, the food was great and very delicious as always. Worth the money and most importantly my family enjoyed it. Much appreciated. Keep up the hard great work and the quality level.
Was on a work trip in Manchester and a friend proclaim that this is one of the best place for dinner! It was indeed true! The tender and fragrance of the meat blended well with the bread and rice. Portion was generous and pricing is very reasonable. One of the best meal that left a lasting impression on my trip!
Good food at a decent price and well presented especially the platters. Well the table will come be slightly small the place overall is easy to find and easily accessible from the paid car park. The drinks are in cans but the rice and kebabs are really nice. Hummus is slightly overpowering compared to others but remains nice. Nan's personally prefer them slightly more buttery and fluffy but with regards to the chicken and lamb especially the covidia and the lamb in the rice, these are all good cuts. Price is reasonable. Service is fairly swift. Seating can be limited at times but it's a place where you will tend to eat and just chill
this is my go-to cause their rice is seriously the best! love mine with extra carrots :) the kobeda kebabs are always so so juicy and flavourful. their portions are generous, even when you're ordering them for takeout. [update] guys please give the people what they want (carrots & raisins), the plates look a little sad with only few pieces of them :( minus 1 star now, you can compare the older vibrant picture to current state of the single kobeda on rice
