Authentic flavors in Manchester

“We have only ever had the take aways when we want to treat ourselves. We have lived in Saddleworth almost 8 years now and we have really struggled to find a decent Indian restaurant, it has always been hit and miss. There was never any consistency, sometimes good, sometimes bad…HOWEVER I think this is by far our favourite place! We keep going back! The poppadoms are always amazing, every single time, not full of oil and greasy tasting, their Lime Pickle is gorgeous and the food is delicious. The lamb chops are a favourite and you can tell there is no cheat, they have been properly marinating in the delicious spices. The tandoori spices must be a family secret, to die for. Most definitely recommend if you want a genuine taste of India. And it is a plus there is minimal plastic waste:)”

“Fantastic find, beautiful restaurant and some of the best Chinese food we have ever had. The service was faultless, the hostess was superb”

“Fantastic range of starters and main courses for all tastes, from mild curries to extra spicy ones. You won’t miss the fact they don’t have meat in. The in restaurant service is excellent. Not the cheapest, but you are paying for quality of ingredients and presentation. Highly recommended for vegetarians, vegans and those wanting to try something different.”

“Best little treasure I've come across, absolutely stunning. Really amazing options for Gluten free”

“I came with my girlfriend and this place is awesome. Was a lovely place and the food was amazing, really recommended. Keep it up!! My favorite one was mixed kebab with hummus! Best combination ever!”

“Had lovely fish chips and curry. Also tried the gyros platter which is a taste sensation. Would definitely recommend this place. Staff are nice and polite and the shop is very clean 5*”

“Lovely atmosphere and decor but the real gem of this place is the food...absolutely amazing!”

“Brilliant from start to finish, welcoming staff and owner. The food was superb! Best tapas I’ve had in a long time! I will be back very soon!”

“This was my first visit, and won't be my last. Food was fantastic, service was good and friendly. Nice relax atmosphere.”

“Number 1 choice for a good curry. Staff are so friendly, food amazing never had a bad meal”

“Excellent service and excellent food. Totally friendly and very polite staff who can't do enough for you. I highly recommend.”

“Our go-to takeaway. We order over the phone and collect in person and the staff are always friendly and the food is great.”

“Fantastic food, the chilli chicken is amazing Great service and the team could not do enough to help you ..”

“Visited this place a few weeks ago with friends and had to come back quickly with my father (who went to university in Sri Lanka) because the food was so good! Service was warm and friendly and everything we ate was authentic, delicious and great value for money. Will come back again very soon, thank you!”

“Wow, saw they do curry pizza’s and just had to try them- we were not disappointed! Pizza’s tasted delicious and ingredients were fresh, really lovely guys running this place as well. We got two pizza’s and ended up ordering two more after that because they were that good.”

“Derbar is one of the best Iranian restaurants I’ve ever tried! The food is absolutely delicious, full of authentic flavors, and beautifully presented. From the kebabs to the rice, every bite was perfect. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the service is excellent. Highly recommended if you’re looking for real Persian taste!”

“I recently dined at Sud Pasta and was thoroughly impressed by all the dishes we eat, the house sugo pasta dish was undoubtedly the highlight and was one of the best pasta dishes I've had the pleasure of tasting. The flavours were rich and perfectly balanced, leaving a lasting impression on my taste buds. To complement the meal, we enjoyed a reasonably priced 1-liter carafe of red wine, which added to the overall delightful experience. Highly recommed this place!”

“The interior of the restaurant is really nice and was greeted with a smile by the staff. Very friendly and we were given few minutes to select a drink and then once our drinks had came, we were asked promptly for our food orders. The food itself is very nice, we shared a starter which was lovely and both had different main meals. The tikka masala is nice but does need more flavour in my opinion (I always think a more red and rich masala is super tasty but appreciate every chef does it differently). My partners main meal which has paneer is was lovely. They add 10% service charge onto the bill which many places do these days which I don’t mind at all (as long as they give good service). All in all a great place to enjoy some nice food and great service, we will definitely return in the future.”

“We had a delicious lunch here. Their gyros are probably one of the best in town. The owner is friendly and happy to talk about what they serve. They use quality ingredients and you can easily tell their food tastes delicious and authentic. They have a fantastic meal deal where you can get a gyro, a drink and a cake for around a tenner. The place is nice, quiet and with some beautiful Greek decorations on the wall.”

“All the food is very delicious and tasty. We like kubaidah and Naan and qabli Palau. The meat is very tender juicy and delicious. The atmosphere is cool here. It's not a big restaurant so it's always full or even fully booked. You need to book it in advance to secure the table here.”

“Just a first class restaurant with great food, a good selection of drinks, and very friendly staff. I came over from Ireland to visit family and we always go the the Prachee at least once per visit. I've eaten Indian food all my life and this rates right up there with the best. And the prices are very reasonable. I know I mentioned the friendly staff, but I'll do it again because they are. I do a lot of reviews and I normally like to take some pictures and include them. For some reason every time I visit the Prachee I forget to wait for photos and just start eating straight away. The food is that good.”

“Excellent service by Raj tonight at Bombay Flavours. Me and my Dad had a great night and thought the food was of exceptional quality. Would definitely recommend, especially the Grandma’s Chicken Curry. Thank you Raj and team for such professional service.”

“Usually go into town with my girlfriend but the traffic was bad so we went local. This place was just as good as any you’ll find in town. Really flavoursome stews and the injera was delicious. If you’re based in South Manchester, I’d definitely recommend popping down here. Welcoming atmosphere and the servers were really friendly.”

“Everything was fantastic!! We had a private family function and everything went smoothly, the food was delicious the atmosphere was amazing and the vibes unmatched. Hajer and the team were amazing and very accommodating, made the process stress free and everything ran smoothly from decor to food timings and music. Family and friends had nothing but praise. I cannot recommend enough, will definetly be having future functions here.”

“H and T were like a dream come true! I was delighted to get a proper sausage and bacon sandwich here, without having to queue or pay through the nose for it. A wonderful and pleasant surprise.”

“Delicious Syrian food, tasty ayran and good music and overall vibe. We went for a quick work lunch of 1-1.5 hours. Highly recommend”

“Fantastic lunch today at this hidden gem! Lovely friendly service, generous portions and everything we had was totally delicious. The aubergine starter was gorgeous and the lamb shish perfectly seasoned and cooked. We will definitely be back!”

“Went last weekend for meal with friends. Host was friendly, welcoming and helpful. Service was promt. Food was excellent, served hot, portion sizes great, and so tasty!! Had the gobi manchurian, shared lamb chop starter. My friends and I had a fabulous time.....Will definately be going again soon, highly recommend this restaurant.”

“Easily my favourite takeaway in Manchester. It's my go to if I work late and can't face cooking. The service is always super friendly and the food is consistently delicious.”
