The style is nepalese so you will find some different dishes on the menu compared to the standard curry house selling kormas to vindaloos. All the food appears to be cooked fairly freshly, with peppers found within the sauces still having crunch to them, and onions still looking fresh. I fully recommend the Lamb Karahi dish, and the Muttar Paneer is an awesome vegetarian dish, oh and the poppadoms are fantastic with spices cooked through them with lovely dips to go with them. Beer prices are reasonable, although higher in cost than a pub, but thats usually to be expected in restaurants. All in all i fully recommend trying out the third eye, and you can always go out in didsbury for a few drinks afterwards.

A recent discovery for me is this beautiful Indian restaurant, which I rank up there with the best…read morein Manchester, situated in the heart of Didsbury Village. Curries are without doubt my favourite food, so I've had a good few and since working for Yelp I have set myself the task of really locating the finest curry houses in Manchester. The Original Third Eye fully deserves to enter in at the top, alongside my other favourites, Punjab in Rusholme, Moon in Withington, and The Original Lal Qila on Deansgate. See my list for the run down. The name Original Third Eye comes from one of the finest restaurants in Kathmandu, though it is also a reference to the concept of the all Seeing Eye, a central emblem of Buddhist thought that is depicted on many temples and shrines throughout Nepal. The restaurant itself is large, and spacious, with authentic decoration and a smart, but still nicely informal, table arrangement. The food is literally unbelievable. Needless to say they sell all the usual traditional curry dishes, including an extensive fish list, but the main specialties are something new and unusual, a curry with a little something extra, taking it to that next level of joy and producing happiness and glee in their very consumption. The kidney kebab starter for example, combines classic kebab spices with beautiful marinated lamb kidney. Also beautiful is the Third Eye Tangri, which mixes chicken with minced lamb and nuts, a surprising and beautiful combination. In terms of mains, go directly to either the seafood menu or the Third Eye Specials section, on which everything is gorgeous. The piece de resistance, is the Murghi Masala, a whole chicken marinated in wonderful spices. This dish is so precisely crafted, that you in fact need to give 24 hours notice, and at least two people need to share it. I think that epitomizes this restaurant's absolute class. So I end on that note.

There is no doubt that this is the best Nepalese restaurant in Manchester. You have to look past…read morethe no-frills decor, because the main focus is on the quality of the cuisine here. Some of the best dishes I've had here are Bhotowan Chicken, Chicken Khorsani and Fish Tikka. What I love about a lot of the dishes are that they're spiced correctly - in other words, they're hot! If you're suffering you can always order yourself a Tiger beer or a Mango lassi though. The staff are always smiling and friendly, and have never, to date, got the bill wrong. Comes highly recommended, and voted but Harden's as one of the best of its kind in the country.

OMG, OMG, OMG - Chennai Dosa just rocks in its new location!…read more Previously in the rather dodgy Stretford area of Manchester, it was always a love/hate relationship of having to go here to get great South Indian food but potentially getting shot walking across the car park at night... But now in Northenden it's much easier and it's still the same amazing food. Really rustic, really cheap, really authentic - their Dosa, Idli and a variety of other pancake style dishes are to die for. £28 for 4 peoples food and a beer - great stuff, basically just go here, now!!

I didn't get a chance to eat at Chennai Dosa when they were based in Stretford, so when they…read morerelocated to Northenden and I was meeting friends who lived there for dinner, we paid them a visit. Of all the restaurants and takeaways we walked passed on the way, theirs had the most people in, which was promising. We were warmly welcomed and shown to a corner table, next to a large group who were there celebrating a birthday by the looks of it. We needed some help with figuring out the menu, as there were no descriptions of the dishes - our server talked us through practically every dish! The dosas (savoury pancakes) are the house special, alongside oothappam breads, rice and tiffin dishes or simple curries. We decided to share starters between us and have our own mains. The food started to arrive after a bit of a wait - it's all served on compartmentalised metal trays which don't like to stay put on the wipe-clean table tops. I wanted to love it but it was all rather...beige and underwhelming. The Medhu Vadai was bland, even with the massive portion of yoghurty/mild curry sauce it was served with. I opted to try their chicken masala dosa filled with potato masala and served with chutneys and sambar which was alright, but really not the taste sensation I was hoping for. My friends did enjoy their curries though, with them both saying they were nice and spicy. This is my second ordering of dosas after trying them at Sanskruti and I don't think I'll bother with them again unfortunately.

I've…read moreordered a Meat Thali for 2 people from here, and there was so much food, way more than we could eat! Bhajis, Tikka, Papadams to start and Chicken Korma, Lamb Bhuna, Mixed vegetable Dahl and accompaniments for mains. Some of the dishes weren't the best I'd ever tasted, but overall, it was great value for money at £22 for two. They also do burgers and pizzas, but since the choices are limited ad these items are not this Kitchen's forte. I'd rather order from a proper pizza house.

This actually fed 4 hungry girls, as it included no less than six different curries plus rice and sides! Got to say the price was pretty amazing, at under 30.00 for 4 people, and they even threw in some free extra popadoms. Quality wise, it's not the greatest curry you'll ever experience, but it's certainly not bad at all. For sheer value for money and variety of dishes, you can't go far wrong with this deal. The restaurant offers free local deliveries or takeaway. They also serve kebabs, chips, burgers and pizzas for those with a less spicy palate.

The Gurkha Grill has never disappointed me yet. The owners, Raj and Neil were employees in a…read morerestaurant of the same name in Nepal, which was championed as one of the best restaurants in Nepal at the time, so it comes as no surprise that their expertise is still enjoyed in the humbler surroundings of Didsbury. The cuisine lies between Nepalese and Indian classics, the Indian ones being given a Nepalese twist in keeping with its name sake. I heartily recommend the Gurkha Grill Special: a half spring chicken marinated in typical Nepalese spices, then covered with a very mild sauce with a dash of white wine. It's probably one of the most expensive dishes on the menu, and it's still only £8.95. The staff are exceptionally courteous here too, and nothing is too much trouble. I can't recommend it enough.

The food and service are both fantastic. I'd definitely recommend this restaurant for veggies, as they have a diverse range of tasty veggie dishes, many involving chena (paneer) ranging from unfamiliar dishes like the extra spicy chena chille to the more familiar chena tikka masala. We went for the vegetarian set menu which was brilliant value at £12.95 each including rice, popadums, naan, 3 main courses and coffee. Of course meat eaters are well catered for too. Happy hours are 5-7pm Monday to Thursday and 10.30pm - late every day, where you will get 15% off the bill. If it's good enough for Badly Drawn Boy (according to GG's website Damon Gough often frequents the place) and the Guardian Good Food guide, then it's certainly good enough for me.

Anyway, overall very impressed. Meat samosas were crispy, salad was very fresh and all the food was piping hot. The can of coke was also cold. Delivery was also very fast (around 25 mins from checkout to door). I'm knocking a single point off purely because the madras was really nice a little bit generic. Should just be half a point off, really. Still recommend it though. So all in all, very tasty takeaway, very good price as well.

They also have other offers on like free bottles of cobra with every meal etc. They are on Facebook and communicate quite well on there so is good to "like" them to keep your eye on offers. Food quality is excellent. I have eaten here approximately 30 times, and have never had one meal here which I would say was average, they are always consistently excellent. Service is always speedy and the decor is great. A brilliant start to am evening of cinema - or after cinema depending if your tummy can take late night curry :)

Thank God it wasn't me who booked this place for a work colleagues leaving meal because it was…read moredreadful. The waiter, a young lad was literally shouting right into our ears the whole time!! He was barking orders us constantly, we wasn't a loud table yet he seemed to think he needed to shout at the top of his voice, even disturbing other diners. He was rude and irritating. The food all came out together so no one was waiting. 8 out of 12 of us were poorly all night, one guy left his whole meal because it was just a awful. I had Chicken Pakora for starter - chicken nuggets with a side salad basically, lacked any kind of spices. For main I ordered Chicken Biriyani - extremely salty and lack of chicken with an omelette dumped on the top with no kind of presentation, the curry sauce that came with it was OK at a push. Wouldn't recommend the place, the interior isn't the best, the staff and the food certainly are not anywhere near the best. TIP: AVOID.
