Chicken Biryani
Saj B.

Probably one of the top 5 Indian restaurants I've ever been to in my life. Great atmosphere + great flavorful food + affordable prices. Definitely something I'm coming back to

One the best if not the best Indian/Asian restaurants I've ever tried. The food is excellent with plenty of choices of different dishes. The service is second to none and the staffs are very friendly. The space is a bit to cramped but again I think it's to do with the popularity of this place. The car park is always full and you end up parking on the street but that's just a minor thing. I definitely recommend it and almost certainly will visit it again.

Wasn't hot or spicy and the staff was very rude would not recommend only give them one star…read morebecause I had to

It's mid-week and mid-afternoon, you've had a couple of pints of real ale with your mates and now…read moreyou want a curry. If you were in Bradford then you would be spoilt for choice but your not. There is Kebabish on The Wicker but to be honest their currys are a little poor. The Mangla and The Kashmir Curry Centre don't open for lunch. It's a problem, or is it? My friend and I had enjoyed a couple of pints in The Fat Cat and needed a curry so we drove to Firth Park. Hot & Spicy is one of a number of curry bars located at the Northern General Hospital end of Firth Park Road. It is certainly unpretentious and unlicensed and can not really be described as a restaurant, more a take away/curry bar. The establishment has tables to do 24 covers. Take-away and eat in business was plentiful and brisk whilst we were there. We ordered 2 chicken balti's and 3 roti's each. The currys were made from scratch, no bought in ready made sauces were used here! The owner / manager came out to ask us how hot we wanted our curries and I think he was surprised when we replied apna. The curry when it came was probably the best I have ever had anywhere, even beating ones I have had in Bradford. The rotis were also excellent and the owner gave us a free generously sized salad and yogurt dip. Excellent. The only draw back was that the curry was served in a polysterene box and not on a plate even though we had aked prior to ordering if it would come in a balti dish / bowl / plate. This wasn't really a problem for us as we are used to, in fact prefer the ethnic, utilitarian type of curry house that are prevalent in Bradford and that can also be found on Spital Hill in Sheffield. So the curry, what was it like; sublime. There was no after meal bloatedness, no indigestion, no heart burn, no flatulence - it was perfect. I can not recommend this establishment as a full blown restaurant dining experience. You certainly wouldn't take any one there on a first date. However if you need a lunch time curry then it has to be the place to go. If you are a bit of a curryholic like us then it is worth a visit to see just how good a real ethnic curry can be. Next time we go we will take our own balti dishes lol. Excellent value for just £5.60

First the 'bad' news; this is in a manky part of Sheffield, but I've never had any problems round…read morethe Mangla. Now the Excellent news: the food is fantastic, the staff are really friendly and it's a bring-your-own bottle place (there're a couple of off-licenses across the road) so the bill is much less than what you'd expect. Honestly, you can pay three to four times the bill elsewhere in town for food that's not as good. I can recommend the veggie vindaloo, tarka dhall, Bombay aloo, channa massala etc. etc. Plus, they serve complimentary poppadoms and pickles and table water: who else does that these days? Recent example: dinner at the Mangla for 13: bill £99. They don't accept cards so check down the back of your sofa for loose change and GO!

I fancied a balti and also I didn't want to be disappointed, so I thought of trying out Mangla on…read moreSpital Hill. I rang my order up for collection. I ordered a Chicken Tikka Balti which is one of my favorite indian dishes (if it's done right). It was the most expensive indian dish that I have ever bought with 1 naan bread it cost £9.60, they also gave me a small starter which was a bag of salad and a sauce quite nice as well I had it after my balti. The Balti had plenty of meat in and had a rich thick spicey sauce, it was the hottest balti's that I have tried among restaurants and take-aways, I thought it was perfect at first but began to struggle towards the end because of the spices. I very much enjoyed the balti but the price is too steep unfortunatly, I may go back to Mangla and try a cheaper dish to see what it's like. The food is worth 5/5 but I have knocked off 1 star becauase of the cost.
