Very nice food including street food starters. Service good and unobtrusive. Drank a mixed fruit cider which was delicious.My only criticism was the huge portion sizes, I couldn't finish it, especially the rice.Happy to reccomend it.

I go to a lot of Indian restaurants, and this was up there as one of the best. It’s a small independent place with good service and not your average range of dishes. We had some traditional street food for starters followed by a couple of mains with coconut rice, and really delicious fresh naans! Perfect.

As a woman dining alone this place was lovely (especially as it was valentines evening). The staff were attentive and made me feel welcome. I wasn't shoved to a table at the back facing the wall lol. This made me feel part of the whole evening.Now food. Poppadoms nice & crisp. The dips were delish. I don't normally enjoy mango chutney as I find it too sweet this was just right so I suspect made from scratch. Same with the yogurt dip.I opted for a selection of appetisers rather than a large curry. Oh my goodness!! The sheek kebab was massive but really tasty. The king pawns had just the right amount of spice. Aloo gobi (which is one of my favs) the potatoes & cauliflower had just the right amount of bite not overcooked & mushy and a coating of sauce so you could taste the whole dish as opposed to bland veg slathered in sauce. I had the crab cakes which personally weren't to my taste. Crab is quite a delicate taste so once combined with spicey potato for me it didn't work ?♀️. Garlic & coriander nann light & fluffy. Gorgeous pina colada. I left a happy if not full lady. Thank you !!

I really liked the quality and freshness of the food here. The menu is small and refined, which l like as l don’t like to browse large menus. The waiters accommodated a tweak to my starter the Wah Ji Wah platter (as l don’t eat fish so provided extra chicken instead). The starter went down fast it was delicious. The recommended mains Gosht Banjara was also delicious with garlic and coriander naan. My only negative was I’d have liked a little more lamb with the more than ample sauce. I ordered another naan to finish off the sauce and it arrived super quick. Service was excellent and attentive. Highly recommended.

The food is top rate. They have a vegan/vegetarian menu though unfortunately was told that this was only available online. Mentioned to 2 waiters to say that it would be better to be integrated into the main menu or given separately with the main menu as an alternative and they took this constructive criticism onboard. Overall however the food is of a very high standard.

Food was good, but the atmosphere seemed somewhat lacking. I'd probably go again as the food was good, but not exceptional
Arrived for dinner at 6.30 and there were several tables already there and lots of takeaways going out. Very attentive service and the food was delicious from the poppadoms and accompanying sauces to the light, fluffy naan bread and the hot but full of flavour Ghost Banjara. Will definately be returning when next in Manchester.

The restaurant was small but that didn't disappoint us with the food and service. Excellent attentive staff with good knowledge of the food they serve. Highly recommended.

Very, very highly spiced food, ordered a chicken curry n it was hotter than the surface of the sun,powder hot, no sight of a fresh chilli, cardamon pops or cloves. Left it

Excellent..One of the very few places which serve good Indian food in manchester. The taste took us back literally to India. We tried samosa chat, vada pav, papad, Paneer tikka in starters and had Paneer chilli masala, subji miloni and different breads. To our pleasant surprise all the dishes were made well and tasted amazing. The ingredients seemed fresh and we enjoyed our meal. The curries were made spice in our request and they were on point. Full 10/10.The service was fast and friendly which is another good point.We will surely revisit.Vegetarian options: Good options for vegetarian choices

I've been dining at Wah-Ji-Wah on and off for a few years and rate it highly. The menu has changed slightly from the last time I visited, so I tried a couple of the new dishes. Both the crab starter and roast lamb curry main were fantastic. The naan is always light and delicious. I thoroughly recommend this restaurant.
