Kandy Sri Lankan - Cheshire East

KANDY have great range of Sri Lankan food and I love their starter platters and Devil dishes .The starters are great. Very good atmosphere and staffs are friendly and polite. I have already booked our Christmas staff party in two weeks. Thank you

Our recent visit to kandy Restaurant in Macclesfield was deeply unsettling for several reasons. The wait time was significantly long despite the restaurant being empty, and the food lacked the authentic taste and quality we expected from a Sri Lankan cuisine establishment. The most alarming issue, however, was the conduct of the chef/owner. His behavior escalated from verbal abuse to my wife and physical aggression towards me all infront of 5 years old daughter and 6 months old baby with us leading to us feeling threatened and compelled to report the incident to the police. This concern was further amplified by the absence of functional CCTV cameras, a critical safety feature, raising fears about potential unchecked criminal activities like abuses or attack. Additionally, the refusal to provide a VAT bill upon request raises serious questions about the restaurant's compliance with tax regulations. Given these experiences, I caution potential customers against dining at Kandy Restaurant. Instead, I would recommend Sigiriya Restaurant in Altrincham and Knutsford for those looking for a reliable, safe, and enjoyable Sri Lankan dining experience, marked by exceptional food quality and commendable customer service.

Really missed Sri Lankan food since moving from London to Wales so we’re pleased when staying in Congleton to find this restaurant in nearby Macclesfield. We began with the mixed starter of mutton rolls, squid, fried lamb in a spicy sauce and fried balls of tuna (cutlet). We then ordered dosa bread, kottu roti, devilled lamb and black pork curry with a portion of mushroom rice. Everything was delicious but could have been a lot spicier for our palates. I enjoyed the lion lager in bottles. All in all an excellent little restaurant with great service.

We were drawn to this restaurant by the many vegan options on the menu and the good reviews. The reality for us was disappointing. Although our waiter was friendly and obliging, the restaurant is itself is tired and very grubby. The food choices sounded appealing but were poorly prepared. We had a sharing platter as a starter, where most of the items were dry and overcooked. For mains, my partner had a dhal, which she described as the saltiest thing she had ever eaten, suffering as a result for the rest of the evening. The Kandy special I had as a main was ok, but nothing special. Apart from ourselves, there was only one other couple in the restaurant, adding to the impression that this place has seen better days.

Good quality food, friendly service, and a nice change from Indian Chinese. The black pork curry was great and we were offered all dishes as mild, medium spicy
