“ Had some of the best Indian food ever there! The starters (scallops & squid) were amazing. Our two mains (curries) extremely tasty with lots of flavor! Location is stylish and staff is very nice. We didn’t have a reservation but came pretty early, so getting a seat was no problem. ”
“ Picked this place as we needed something different from Dishoom and Asha's. After reading the reviews it looked like a good choice and it certainly didn't let us down. Menu is pretty small, but the choices are varied. Got the sharing starters for two and it was the perfect start. The main courses were just as good, got the hottest lamb and chicken options. Although, they weren't as spicy as what I'd eat at home they had a good level of spice together with great flavours. Both dishes worked well with naan and pilau rice. Try the gin based cocktail! It won't disappoint. Didn't get a chance to try desert so will have to go back to try them. ”
“ We had a family gathering of 20 adults, plus 1 child & 1 toddler. Staff were fantastic, allowed us to use our own playlist & pay separately. Food is delicious, between us we ordered too many to mention, including veggie, and gluten-free vegan; all dishes excellent. Menu is varied, not run-of-the-mill fayre, and definitely not overpriced, averaging at about 20pp plus drinks. Highly recommend Wah ji Wah, go with your friends, your family, on a date, or solo, but definitely go. Thanks to the chefs, waiting staff & kitchen staff for a truly memorable evening with fantastic food. ***** ”
“ One of the most wonderful and delicious Indian restaurants in Manchester. It's a little bit small and has limited number of tables. However, the team are so friendly and kind, even the chief came to us asking about the food and he played my lettle child!! ”
“ We came here by chance as we had reservations elsewhere but the fire alarm was going off for 30mins and we were starving. We did have to wait outside for 10minutes and then also move tables when a bigger group came in as it was a busy Saturday night but honestly we didn't mind as they seated us last minute. We are SO glad we came here instead - the food was out of this world, the chef was so welcoming and helpful, we are both vegans and they have a dedicated vegan/veggie menu and honestly it was some of the best food I've ever eaten. He even took our orders personally because the wait staff were so busy, so we never waited too long for a drink or our food. The Vegan Chicken Pepper Fried starter is made with the chef's own Seitan and I can't recommend enough - if you like good food, great Indian food, amazing vegan food or just the best onion Bhajis you've ever had, hit this place up. The ONLY criticism is that it took 15/20 minutes to pay because they were so busy, but that's such a small thing it was barely worth mentioning. ”
“ Came here to try their Kanda Bhaji and Bhuna Gosht, and it was a good experience. Their foods have good portion sizes and their menu offers a wide variety of curry dishes. The restaurant location was initially quite hard to find for me as it's a little bit tucked away. The service is good at the restaurant, you walk in, get seated quickly and the food also came out fast. The food here can be quite pricey as a starter, a main curry dish with rice and a drink is almost 40. I went back again and also tried the Pav Bhaji, which tasted very good and large portion size. Currently they have 25% off most of their menu from Sunday to Thursday. Therefore I suggest you go these days as you get better deal for dining there. ”
“ If you're in Manchester, this is a fantastic spot to check out. The food is delicious and the service is lightning-fast. The curries are particularly tasty for their distinctive flavor, and the staff are friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend it. ”
“ Delicious Indian food with nice ambience. Friendly staff ..great chef ..yummy food ..One of the best indian food experiences I've had. Must visit place in city centre Manchester. Atmosphere and interior is amazing. Service is good and the wait for food isn't long. Only came here for a quick lunch with little appetite, but it was definitely worth it! Food was nice and dishes are authentic.If you come to plan here make it a big evening meal/late lunch. Highly recommend and will be visiting again with an empty stomach! By far one of the best Indian Restaurant Chain's in the UK! ”
