The Milnrow Balti - Manchester

Following news that this place had just been named as the country's best curry house we decided to try. The curries we ordered were tasty,not swimming in oil and good size portions .The service was excellent. Even though it was slightly more expensive, you pay for quality. Will definitely be going back again.

The wait for our food was long and when it arrived, it was not piping hot. The Bindi gosht curry was dry and the lamb was tasteless and overcooked. The portions were small and did not stand out in presentation. The chicken korma lacked flair and the mixed grill was overpriced. The Keema rice and chapattis were good, but the naan breads could use some fresh coriander. The salad accompaniments were lacking in color. Overall, the restaurant was overrated despite winning an award.

The food at this restaurant was fantastic, we really enjoyed it! We decided to try it based on some good reviews we heard in the media, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The dishes were flavorful, beautifully presented, and the service was attentive. We had questions about gluten-free options and the staff was able to provide us with helpful information. Our total bill came to £90 for four people including drinks, but we will definitely be returning in the future.

It is not cheap but you usually get what you pay for in life and this restaurant is no exception to that rule. The food looks amazing and tastes even better! You can tell that all of the ingredients are fresh and that knowledge and time and TLC is put into every dish. You won 't find any excess ghee or gravy style curries like you get from the majority of these high street style curry houses. Presentation is excellent, the staff are really friendly and attentive (but not overly so), the establishment is well decorated/fitted out, so i really cant fault anything with this award winning establishment!! OH I highly recommend the Lamb chops they are at least an 11 out of 10 all day...cheers!

Fast service, friendly staff and absolutely delicious curry! Highly recommended. I just wish it wasn't cash only.
