The Great Kathmandu Tandoori

Great food deco dark and old but the food was lovely. Service was a little too formal unfriendly at times. Busy place. So tables are near each other

Service fine, food OK but much better places to go in Manchester. Pretty good value for money (perhaps we just chose poorly?) Overall, not bad

I would highly recommend The Great Kathmandu. The food is exceptional and the service is always great too. We go here quite frequently and it never fails to disappoint!

Very good food but they are not prepared to deviate from the menu at all. Service very efficient but waiters quite grumpy! Lighten up a bit!!

Good service, friendly staff. Good food arrived promptly. some times difficult to park in the area unless you use the metro when the station on burton road is quite close.

good service and very tasty food. it is always full and is close to pubs and bars so very convenient. Will go again and enjoy the varied menu.

The food was great, staff were very friendly and the prices were reasonable. We had a lot of fun and will be going again in the future.

My first visit to Kathmandu on a very busy Saturday night. Very rushed and mains delivered to the table whilst eating starters. Food tasty though.

Really nice place for curry, both dishes we ordered (mixed tandoori masala and tarka dhal) very tasty and filling. Price reasonable. Easy to get into on Saturday night despitw being popular

Big ubereats order prioritised above us sat in the restaurant. Waited 1.5 hours for our starters. Food great when it actually came. Shame as one of our favourites

Great food, lovely atmosphere, helpful and polite staff although with the restaurant being very busy there was quite a wait for the dishes to be served.

Good service ,fabulous food as always - one of the best curry houses in Manchester. Pompadoms especially generous and lovely rice for side but best of all house special main and good vegetarian options

A really enjoyable meal. The restuarant was very busy considering it was very early. The service was good as was the atmosphere. We will be visiting again soon.

The staff were very nice and friendly, as well as accommodating and helpful. The food was nice and the set meals were a great value.

The table was ready for us and the service was great. We had the Jhinga prawns to start - they were amazing as were the mains

Very attentive and good humoured staff. Food was very good. Only downside was the noise from the full restaurant. Would certainly go back again in 2017.

Delicious food, excellent service. We have been going to the Great Kathmandu for several years, the food is very authentic and service is always excellent. I would definitely recommend.

The food was excellent, the staff were friendly, the atmosphere pleasant. It deserves its reputation as one of the best curry houses in the country.

Very nice food and friendly staff, who are like family! Catered for our two young children very well. Price generally competive to other restaurants. Thank you.

Up to the usual great standards. The Great Kathmandu has been a favourite for over 2 decades and still remains the first choice restaurant in West Didsbury.

Previously We have been out as a big group to Kathmandu and the whole thing was great - slick - good food and great service led by a fantastic hostess but this time it was completely different. The service was really poor and the food quality poor also. Three different people brought us menus despite being told we were having a set menu and we continually had to repeat requests. The organisation was shocking and it seemed short staffed. I wouldn't rush back.

Food was great as always. Service was a little slow at times as there were lots of Xmas parties in-to be expected this time of yr I guess. Staff were attentive when they were available.

We waited almost 2 hours to get seated. Service appalling. A group of seven people who hadn't booked got seated before us and served before us. Two of our party had to leave to catch their tram home without eating the main course as it was so slow to come out. The food was good but service was atrocious.

We are regular visitors to the Kathmandu . Always great food and friendly service. The best place for a curry in South manchester. Would highly recommend

First time at this restaurant, nice atmosphere. Very nice food, and a pleasant service, apart from being asked to leave 10 minutes after closing time!!

Dreadful service - waited around 90 minutes for our food and then it was average. word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word

It was great food and a lovely atmosphere. The staff were delightful. The minimum word count enforced here and the complulsory additional features I must fill in will really put me off reviewing again though.

Good service, excellent food (as always), good value for money. Only criticism is the floor had cutlery and food left lying on the carpet; none of which was removed during or 1.5 hour stay.

Arrived for 18:00 and although the restaurant had just opened it was already starting to get busy, which is always a good sign! Very cosy and family oriented restaurant that manages to keep a high standard of services with great food and a lovely Nepalese atmosphere!

Great food at a reasonable price. The restaurant was full, which was quite a surprise for a Wednesday but service was prompt and we did have an undue wait.

As always, great food and service. Three quarters of the party we vegetarian and had plenty of choice. Many thanks for a great night and great food.

Food is delicious however the service midweek for a large group of 8 appeared to be too much for the waiters. We were short changed on the amount of mo mo's we'd ordered for our starter, the staff brought out meals we hadn't ordered, and we struggled to catch someone's eye when we needed something such as a drink or the bill. I would still go back however, as the food is truly very tasty, and the service at the weekend for small groups such as couples is fine.

We used to eat here many years ago not long after it first opened. It was only a small restaurant then and the food was second to none - the freshness, the flavours and the tandoori cooking absolutely sublime with naan and pilau rice to die for. The restaurant has since expanded considerably in line with its reputation and to meet the ever-increasing demand for food in West Didbsury. We thought the curries were as good as ever but the tandoori mixed starter was disappointing - whilst the flavours were good, we were pretty sure it had been re-heated in a microwave and not cooked fresh in the tandoor, especially as it arrived very quickly after we'd ordered and the seek kebab was on the soggy side. However overall this did not detract from what was a very reasonably-priced meal served by friendly, efficient staff - and the curries, rice and naan are still THE best, though the Rajdoot runs it close (but is a lot dearer).

The most beautiful curry I have ever had! Mixed with the best service, authentic, homely, delicious ! We will be going back a lot in the future ! X

Pleasant restaurant, laid back and relaxing - service was attentive, but low key, and the food was beautiful. This restaurant compares favourably with its sister restaurant The Third Eye in Didsbury.

Great food and people. Prices are relatively low. It is definitely a must try. Loved the Papadum and the whole food is served like a ritual. Looking forward to my next visit :-)

I always have a very good meal at the Great Katmandu. Very reasonably prices and i would always recommend the mixed Nepalese Masala dish. Very tasty!

A warm welcome from the staff; the meal was efficiently and effectively served. The quality of the food is outstanding with rich, varied flavours with a wonderful variety of herbs, spices ,ginger and garlic. All at avery reasonable price.

Booked a large party of 12 for a meal and we were not disappointed. Really good food and good service. Love this restaurant and will certainly be going again!

I really enjoyed my meal the wife tried something new and didnt like her choice as much. Service was good throughout. Nice draught beer and a good atmosphere.

Food was as good as usual but the service wasn't as good tonight-we told the manager who we know from regular visits and he promised to speak to the staff so everyone happy.

Great service, very fast and efficient. Beautiful tasty food. A very lively, busy place. If you don't mind a lot of noise while you're eating this is a good restaurant.

The place was very busy, people waiting to be seated. As we had booked we where lead straight through to a table. The food is excellent served by helpful friendly staff. We will defiantly be doing this again. First Class Thank you

Food was average, but the service was friendly and helpful. My lamb dish was clearly just a sauce poured over pieces of lamb that weren't even hot. The aloo dum wasn't very flavourful, although my friends' dishes seemed to be better. The peshwari naan was excellent, though!

Always consistant.. I've been coming here for 10 years and I'll keep on coming back. I love the lamb mo mo's, the tandoori Karahi and the chicken sha chuka

A group of 5 of us do a fairly regular Thursday night at the Kathmandu and we always get great food and service and the fact the place is always busy on a weeknight tells you its a great place to eat and drink. We have tried elsewhere but have given up and only come here now!

A fantastic experience in this long standing and venerable Manchester institution. Superb service and high quality food. Our German visitors loved it. A jewel in the crown

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.

A very nice little authentic Nepalese and Indian restaurant to have a meal with family and friends for a reasonable price plus the staff are very nice.

Restaurant was nice, food was good and staff were friendly. Definitely would go there again some time in the future. The cutlery might need updating though.
