Excellent curries, in my opinion the best in south Manchester. The chilli paneer is especially tasty, even though I am a meat eater! Very spicy though, be careful!

Fantastic food as always. By far my favourite restaurant. I'll be back next month. If you go, be sure to try the lamb chops. And katmandu beer.

Once again we were very well looked after and the food and customer service was superb. One of the best Nepalese restaurants in Manchester in my opinion

Food was average tonight as used to a higher standard and the service was efficient lacking any empathy. Would prefer more choice of wines on the menu.

Convivial atmosphere, attentive waiters, reasonable bill, scrumptious food! What more can one ask? Well, one thing. The wine was a disappointment, we chose the S African Shiraz. Not a patch on its Australian counterpart, started rough and had only marginally improved by the end of the bottle. It felt like the sort of bottle you could pick up at a cut-price outlet for £2.99. Those of us drinking it agreed, a £4.99 equivalent from say Aldi or Lidl would be much better and surely at £16.95 the restaurant could afford that slightly reduced profit-margin. It didn't spoil the meal though, which was top-notch.

The mackerel starter was a little burnt and dry and not as well marinated as usual and the lamb in one of the dishes was a little tough but otherwise usual good standard

Busy Nepalese restaurant with a lively atmosphere. Decor is bright with a welcome nod to Indian restaurant style of the 80s. Service is efficient and friendly. Food is exceptional, with all 6 dishes on our table very different-unlike many lower end Indian restaurants where most dishes seem to be produced from a single common base sauce. We have been coming here for years. Standards are consistently high.

Excellent food, efficient and friendly service. Worked hard to meet our requirements despite busy Saturday night. A fussy friend was delighted with his tandoori fish.

Service fine, food OK but much better places to go in Manchester. Pretty good value for money (perhaps we just chose poorly?) Overall, not bad

We waited almost 2 hours to get seated. Service appalling. A group of seven people who hadn't booked got seated before us and served before us. Two of our party had to leave to catch their tram home without eating the main course as it was so slow to come out. The food was good but service was atrocious.

Food was great as always. Service was a little slow at times as there were lots of Xmas parties in-to be expected this time of yr I guess. Staff were attentive when they were available.
