We have been visiting the Massala Lounge for years both as a couple and later as a family. The service is good and the food is delicious. The menu consists of all the favourites you would expect to find on an Indian menu. The portions are a good size. The poppodums are always warm, crisp and fresh with a great chutney tray selection. My favourite Indian restaurant in the area.

Family run South Indian street food restaurant.
Reviewed By PadThaiPaul
Early Sunday evening, without a booking, but my friend David & I were welcomed and offered a table of our choice in this smallish, modern & stylish venue.Amma`s Canteen specialises in South Indian streetfood.We selected a range of dishes from an attractive, easy-to-understand & descriptive menu - sectioning dishes into "street cart", "dosa griddle" and "from the pot".Outstanding was the Masala Dosa with its filling of crushed potatoes and cashew nuts inside the huge, lacy, crisp rice and gram batter "crepe".Served with a coconut "pesto" and a small pot of warming vegetable & lentil broth, it didn`t disappoint and was an excellent recommendation from our waiter.Amma`s offers a different sort of dining experience from your usual "Indian" restaurant - an interesting menu that is both authentic and delicious. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and took a real interest in our experience and making sure we were enjoying the food, by explaining to us how to order to get the best possible dining experience.The JHakaas IPA (4.6% for 500ml) is a very pale, vegan craft ale brewed in India (£5.65).It was hoppy & terrific & sailed down in its branded glass - always a nice touch. Kingfisher beer is also served - in draft or bottle form.Food prices were competitive.The quality of what we ate was good, so we were pleased with the value for money offered.There is a wide choice on the menu for meat eaters and vegetarians alike, including plenty for vegans & 90% of the menu is actually gluten free!This was my first visit and I was delighted with my new "find".It won`t be my last!Close to the main bar & restaurant drag in Chorlton, it`s a healthy walk or very short taxi ride away.PRO TIP: Only open from 5pm Tues - Sunday. Whilst Amma`s Canteen has a full, licenced bar, but you can also BYO (Bring your own).Many thanks for your detailed review and we are so glad you enjoyed the whole experience we offer. It's great when people take the time to tell others all about all aspects of their visit. We look forward to welcoming you again soon.

Authentic Indian restaurant in West Didsbury. Indique word is coined by merging 'Indian' and'Unique' and so is our food. True to our name our food is a modern twist to traditional currys. Every dish is made with fresh ingredients and lots of care and love

It was good to see Indique mentioned in the just published new edition of the Good Food Guide, counting it amongst the best 1000 or so restaurants in the country. As the Guide’s review has it, this is one of the new wave of “posh Indian” restaurants, offering much more traditional dishes than the “any protein with any sauce” dishes that you can find in countless identikit high street curry houses. We’re fortunate to have it in Greater Manchester, along with likes of Bombay to Mumbai in Bramhall, Lily’s in Ashton and Sanskruti in Withington.The chef puts some effort into elegant plating of starters. Expect the dabs and smears of any “fine dining” restaurant. But this is not at the expense of flavour. Achari paneer tikka saw big chunks of the cheese, which had been marinated in tikka spices and a little pickle juice to give sharpness, quickly cooked so there was a bit of texture on the exterior but soft inside. The dabs and smears were, I think, a coriander chutney and a sharper tamarind one. Alongside, there’s thinly sliced cucumber for crunch and each piece of cheese was topped with a slice of red pepper. All in all, a good balance of textures and flavours. The other starter was a more interesting take on the familiar onion bhaji. Here the onions are mixed with lentils and spinach. There’s more of that sharp tamarind chutney.Aloo gobi is always good here and always seems slightly different from the previous version. On this visit, the cauliflower was quite soft with waxy potatoes giving a little bite. Flavours are consistently good and, in particular, there’s a good whack from chilli. That was eaten with a naan. The other main course needed no additional carb. Lamb biryani was cooked in the Hyderabadi style. And, no, I don’t pretend to know the differences between that and the various other styles of cooking the dish. I do know this was delicious. A good balance in quantities of the rice and the meat. The rice itself had a good flavour and the lamb had been long cooked so it could, literally, be cut with a fork. In the high street curry house, flavours can be a bit underwhelming but not here. You also get a little dish of raita which is handy for balancing the heat from chilli. We’ve had desserts in the past (and they are another example of elegant plating), but we were too full this time, so just got the bill.

We were looking for somewhere for dinner nearby on a weeknight. It wasn’t a special occasion and we didn’t want to have to wait too long to eat. This worked very well. The staff were welcoming and the interior a calm, appealing space. We were offered a choice between a table by the pond or one in the window. Both looked great, but we went for the natural light in the window. There were a number of menu options at around £10-12. There was a further discount applied on weeknights before 7.30pm. We chose two curries which were served in bowls on a heated plate in the centre of the table, making them perfect for sharing. Everything came out quickly and the staff were very helpful. I guess my only disappointment was that I chose my curry because it said it came with aubergine, but when it came out these had been substituted with courgette. If I had known, I would have chosen a different dish. But as always with Thai food, we appreciated the number of vegetables and the fresh ingredients. Worked well for our weeknight dinner.

Celebrated a 50th Birthday with friends. Our party of 16 were seated upstairs and despite it being a full house upstairs and downstairs and also catering for another large birthday party we couldn’t fault the food and service as per usual. We wouldn’t go anywhere else! Would highly recommend to anyone

Peck & Yard is the first Pan-Asian Chicken Shack in Manchester and We are proud to be serving some succulent oriental spices fried chicken with different varieties of Pan-Asian sauces.

Dropped in to Peck and Yard last night after an enjoyable few hours of cricketSuch a lovely, friendly welcome by Edward and the team was followed by simple food done brilliantly. Grilled or fried chicken in a variety of sauces was on offer, all of which were delicious. And I have to say, the spicy rice was something else - loved it. Oh, the house red wasn’t too shabby either. I thoroughly enjoyed this little place, so pleased we dropped by.
