Punjab Tandoori Indian Restaurant Manchester - reader comments

"This is only one of two Indian restaurants in the country that we have visted that can really deliver foodwise. As it happens, and I don't believe this is any coincidence, the friendliness and warmth of its staff is also impeccable. It has by far the best vegetarian menu on the Curry Mile. We opted for the Hindistani Thali and it was as good as many we have tried in India. The restaurant is small but the atmsophere is comfortable and relaxing and lively enough. We have been back several times when in the area and have tried a variety of veg dishes including a wonderful Dosa. Fantastic people, fantasitc food, fantastic place!" - Anne-Marie & Paul, London 29/12/07 (visited on a thu eve)

"Went to the Punjab on the 22nd of December and it was pretty quiet, about 4 tables free, yet it's a small restaurant to start with. This was our 2nd visit and we were seated next to the door, which didn't cause too much problems. Service was good, very keen in fact. One waiter was that interested in if we were enjoying our meal, we could of been a party of 3 instead of 2. Starters: Vegetable Samosa - piping hot, fresh and the best I have tasted. Main: Chicken Jalfrezi and Chicken Handi - Spot on, piping and fresh and full of flavour. Would recommend the Handi. Everything else was top notch. Had to wait about 5 mins to grab the attention of waiters for the bill but the food is one of the best I have tasted on The Mile and is a definite favourite. To summarise, a small, quaint restaurant, serving some of the best food, decor is not the best, but I dont go for the wallpaper, just the food, and its Bloody Good, and reasonably priced!" - John Taylor, Warrington 29/12/07 (visited on a saturday evening)

"Was OK but I didn't appreciate the old man of the family constantly looking over whilst we were eating - rather off putting!" - rob, manchester 17/4/07 (visited on a friday after 11pm)

Trusted Reviewer "I'm always sceptical when I read rave reviews of Wilmslow Road restaurants - generally the decor is tatty, prices are high, food quality poor, toilets disgusting and the service often abrupt, which can be forgiven for the number of drunken and abusive customers they normally have to deal with. However curiosity always makes me pay a visit. Sadly Punjab Tandoori fell short of the quality of Akbaars, Lights Of India, EastZEast and Shimla Pinks in the city centre. I opted for the Punjab mix which was tasty but nothing special. The usual soggy poppadoms, greasy naan bread and over-priced menu that I've come to expect on the curry mile were present, as were the toilets, that are in need of an upgrade. That said, the staff were friendly and compared to the competition on this stretch it would still be recommended." - matthew, manchester 17/4/07 (visited on a monday evening)

"My wife and I arrived here at 11pm after seeing a concert on 20/07. We chose this specific restaurant due to previous reviews on this site. Although the food was as good as expected, what we liked the most was the very friendly and efficient service. They were very pleased when I showed them a print-out of their restaurant reviews off this site. There was a lively birthday party going on when we arrived, but they dealt with it very responsibly so they, and the rest of the diners, had a good time. To round off a great evening (concert and our first visit to the "curry mile"), they ordered us a taxi which was at the door within 2 minutes." - Peter Hill, Coniston, Cumbria - 21/7/07 (visited on a Friday after 11pm)

"My family througly enjoyed the food. Very friendly staff. In June I have booked to take my work collegues to Punjab Restaurant. My leaving do, after 22 years services with a Pharmaceutical Company. Looking forward to a lovely meal." - Neela Mistry, Macclesfield - 15/5/07 (visited on a Saturday evening)

"Fresh spicy not too salty - delicious food." - Amanda Bishop, Crewe - 25/3/07 (visited on a Sunday evening)

"The handi chicken is gorgeous and the masala dosas are out of this world!! in fact our favourite food!.....warning they are so big and moreish u may not need to order anything else!!! we now live in bournemouth and can't get a decent curry anywhere! we miss this restaurant terribly! The best Indian on the mile by a mile!!!!!" - Vanessa Bacchas, Bournemouth - 19/2/07 (visited on a Sat evening)
