Another really nice meal at the Katmandu. I had the same meal as my last visit as it was so nice I didn't want to change. Good service as usual with a nice atmosphere.

Very Friendly welcome and service from the owners daughter and great food. what started out as a great evening was marred slighted by the hostile attitude of the owner whilst clearing the table and delivering the bill which we had not asked for.....just as well we didn't​ want coffee !

We visited on a Sunday evening just after opening. The restuarant began to fill up pretty quickly with both families and couples. The food was excellent with good service throughout. We will definitely be visiting again.

We go here on a regular basis and the food and service is always excellent! It is so different from the usual Indian food which makes it stand out.

It was a very nice experience, the staff were lovely , very friendly. The only problem we had was that we felt the food was a bit rushed. No sooner had we finished our starters and they brought the main courses. It would of been nice to have a bit of time in between

We had a very enjoyable evening on our sons Birthday. The food was excellent, the staff were very friendly and even produced a cake with candles when they realised it was a Birthday celebration. We will certainly be visiting again.

Terrible service,waited 45 mins for a drink ? Then over an hour before our orders were taken by a very arrogant waiter? Food was OK,when it arrived after being in there 2 hrs . My honest opinion is KATMAN-DONT! Really sorry but it's the truth.

A lot of the older male staff appear a bit grumpy and just look bored. I wish that all Indian restaurants would attempt to be a bit healthier and include more vegetables in their dishes as they all tend to be just chunks of meat in lots of tastey sauce.

Had heard a lot about this place and was looking forward to some really good food. The poppadoms were excellent but it went down hill from there. We had the lamb chops for starters which were overcooked and tough and the chicken starter was also dry and over cooked. The mains came and the Lamb bhoona was tough as old boots. Overall very disappointed

This is obviously a busy and popular restaurant. On the night we went they had a chef missing and the service was very slow. The manager came over to apologise and handled the situation very well. The food was good rather than outstanding and the portions were rather over facing.

The food was absolutely amazing.... as always! They really are a cut above. Fine ingredients, perfectly cooked, wonderful flavour balances. Good sized portions as well. We went for a prawn and fish special, lamb handi and tandoori chicken shak-shu-na, as well as various sides. This is my third visit and there are very few restaurants that deliver such consistent high standards. Shame the service was a little bit slow, clumsy and disjointed. It was 8pm on the Saturday of Valentine's Day week, so understandably they were mega-busy. Staff were clearly working hard and I'm not sure an additional member of staff would have helped (quite tightly packed in the dining area). Just one if those things... small blot, but definitely a positive experience all things considered.

We go here on a regular basis and never had to complain about the food service or anything else-it is excellent and if it wasn't we wouldn't keep coming back! Better than going into Rusholme

Probably the best Indian restraint in Manchester. Nepalese food, spicy and different, good service by largely Nepalese staff. Try the Katmandu chicken and the Bhutan ghost. Nan bread is superb. Only nitpick are the popadoms which are spicy and small compared to the usual Manchester doorstops. It is the business and rightly popular

Great food. Best popadoms in Manchester. Tikka masala has a kick for what's normally a mild dish but still amazing and great sized portions. Would recommend

friendly staff. tasty authentic food. had makhan chicken. haven't been to the restaurant in 20 years (it had moved a few shops down!), but not disappointed. little bit slow on some service though e.g. checking my friend had cutlery (even after I suggested they lay a space for him!) and attending to the hotplate candles (which went out). would go again though.

Gorgeous food, lovely service. We were there to celebrate a birthday and the staff arrived at the end with a surprise cake that we didn't ask for which was very lovely.
