Top Restaurants in Mottram in longdendale, Greater manchester

I love to find a good restaurant, when you are in the mood for an Indian one, then this is the place to go.

Service was attentive but not intrusive. The food was absolutely top of its class. We was lucky to be there when it was opening and lucky to get a table. I believe this place books out. The atmosphere and setting is a pleasure also.

Highly recommended

Excellent service and the food was delicious. Hamza was an excellent host and very polite and friendly. He checked in with us and made sure everything was alright with our food. We’ll definitely come again

Struggling to find a curry in Greater Manchester? Well, in my opinion, Mahal is one of the best curry houses in all of Manchester (maybe the UK) and let me tell you why…

First off, let’s start with the interior. The design is so cool and there even is a water feature at one of the tables (in pictures). Furthermore, the atmosphere is really relaxed - the perfect atmosphere for a curry house! Most importantly though, the staff weren’t good. They were great. In fact, they were some of the best staff I have ever seen. They are so kind and they treat you like royalty, and they will do their very best to take care of you, something I think every other restaurant needs.

Now let’s start with the food. I ordered a Mango Lassi and let me tell you, it is the best Mango Lassi you will find in Greater Manchester. It is so sweet, thick and creamy that it becomes borderline delicious and addictive. It pairs well with spicy dishes as well. As appetisers, I had roasted poppadoms. They were so crispy and had a smoky flavour, while the tray of chutneys was delicious.

As starters, I had an onion bhaji. It was nice and crispy. Also, an honourable mention for the lamb chops. They were so succulent, flavourful, and tender that they were the perfect starter.

For mains, I had the Ceylon curry. The Ceylon is a blend of delicious Sri Lankan spices - a must-try from me! The chicken was so tender as well! But the main event for me was the Peshwari Naan. This is a naan but it comes with a twist - crushed, sweet almonds are inside the naan. The almonds give the naan depth, making the naan even better! Also, the naan was perfect for soaking up curries - which is a great thing!
The Pilau rice was also nice.

Overall, this place is amazing. You need to try this place - it is essential to try!
