It doesn't worth the hype to be honest, the restaurant had dim lighting in a way that was supposed to feel romantic, but it just wasn’t enjoyable for me. It was also cold inside (they said the heating wasn’t working that day). We’ve had much better Indian food elsewhere.
Dishoom Spinningfields is one of my favourite restaurants in Manchester. When it first opened back in 2018, it was Dishoom’s first restaurant in Northern England, and since then they’ve set a remarkable standard of both food and service quality and certainly left me coming back for more. The interior is super impressive, cool and unique. Dishoom is based on the old Irani cafés in Bombay, and the interior is so large and feels like no other restaurant in the city. My go-to dishes are the Chicken Ruby with Basmati Rice and occasionally the Gunpowder Potatoes. The portion sizes are generous, and the rich spices of the curry are super good — it’s obvious they use great quality ingredients and seasonings. For drinks, again the selection is vast, with my favourites being the regular Chai and the Mango Lassi, which are both really good. There is always a staff member walking around topping up tap water, so you’ll never go thirsty. The pricing is a little high, but I feel it is worth it for the quality. Matka Holders can also roll a dice at the end of their meal to potentially earn everything for free, food and alcohol included, during certain times. This makes it all fun, being able to put the meal on the roll of a dice. Due to having an allergy, I can scan a QR code on the menu for the latest information, and all the staff members are well trained in dealing with allergies. They’re aware of coeliac disease and the danger of cross-contamination, and always keep my items separate from my friends’ when I dine in a group. Overall, this is one of the places to be in Manchester if you’re looking for good food with fantastic allergy awareness, overall ambience/vibes, food and service quality. It’s a place that you can go for a special occasion or even a quick lunch (although a lunch menu / meal-deal offer would make it even more enticing for sure!).
The best Indian dining experience I have ever had. Spectacular, mouth watering dishes from starters to desserts. Everything made from fresh, high quality ingredients, fantastic combinations of spices & flavours. Beautiful, cozy and authentic atmosphere/ ambience. Friendly, professional & attentive service. Highly recommend this restaurant and hope to come back soon!
In the waiting lobby we were provided with free cups of chai which enlightened our whole mood while the table was being arranged. The place is too big. We had Butter chicken(Chicken Ruby), Dal makhani and Mattar Paneer out of which I liked Chicken Ruby and Mattar Paneer the most. Dal Makhani was okayish. Prices were also decent. Service and food quality was too notch. A wonderful experience for Indians with perfect blend of Indian spices and aroma with perfect vibe of vintage Bollywood style.
I can't begin to explain how much I loved the food. I live in America and am seriously considering flying back just for the lamb chops. As you can see, the food was so good I ate before I remembered to take photos of it untouched. I sampled several dishes and it was all so tasty. I definitely recommend going. You won't regret it.
Really really impressive! I found it a slight modern twist on a traditional curry style restaurant. The setting is amazing, the ambience is really chill, food was all great, good level of spice! Plenty of drinks and wine options, friendly staff and overall worth visiting! We’ll be back.
Very lovely Indian place to eat. Plates ate preferably to share and they’re exceptionally well cooked, very tasty and lots of vegetarian choices. The staff were super friendly and explained some of the dishes for is which was great. A bit expensive but it’s very good quality. The building itself it’s just beautiful too.
Food is immaculately good. We enjoyed a three course meal at Dishoom. The variety of food is great for Vegetarian and Vegans too. The unlimited tea lasts until 5pm Although, service is slow the food makes up for it. It was unbelievably hot on the day we visited, the air-conditioning was not on.
