Bombay Flavours — Restaurant in Manchester

Take away: Uninspiring

What we received for £41.35 was underwhelming.

1.5 smashed up poppadoms + 3 small portions of sauces for £4+ Garlic naan the size of a paratha. Failed to meet the expected size of a general garlic naan. Traditonal fish curry: flavours were polarising. Claimed to be a coconut curry. There was zero trace of flavour of coconut which was a huge disappointment. It tasted like a butter chicken but with increased cinnamon and curry leaves. Small portions of cod. The cod was not plump, suspect it was cooked from frozen. The butter chicken was okay, again underwhelming in flavour. I found one chicken piece cooked but cold in the core. Suspect that it was already cooked but re-heated. Chicken pieces were snide. Pilau was cooked with an overwhleming amount of ghee which left a heavy and greasy mouth feel. Pilau should leave a somewhat refeshing finish.

To be frank, it was pretty poor value for money and failed to deliver on flavour. I would not recommend, its an absolute waste of money. No revelations to be had here.

Delivery was...

They serve good Indian food but I was not happy with the service. I booked the table for three including my daughter. When I reached 6.45 (the time I booked) , the lady who was managing the booking told me that I needed to leave before 8 . I was not expecting a time slot like that. It was a valentine's day and they wanted to do more business. So I ordered just minimum things considering time . One chat , one non veg starter and a main . I got my food at 7.15. I was literally forcing my little daughter to finish her food before time . We couldn't enjoy it at all. I told the guy who served the food to inform the customer about the time slot while booking so that they can make a decision based on that. Finally we were able to finish before 8 and the guy got the bill. One thing I noticed was that he was giving chocolate in a basket with the bill to everyone. But for us he didn't give the chocolate. It is not because of the chocolate, the attitude. Never recommend any of my friends because I know anyone with self-respect can tolerate this kind...

Wow what a disappointment clearly all fake reviews or people that eat out of a bin on a daily the chicken tikka masala was awful no flavour just pure spice sp bland the chips was rubber the poppadoms was all crushed in a bag and wasn't fresh near enough stale the chicken wasn't good quality either and the chicken tikka starter was just spicey af chicken pieces chicken tikka should never be that spicey I like spicey food if it has flavour because that's the whole point of spice to bring out the flavour but the flavour was non existent I'd recommend next time someone orders to just ask for pure chilli extract and some rice seriously and the price of this place is a joke for the portion size you get there size of everything is tiny 12.99 for a flavourless chilli extract masala is laughable learn to cook you do not deserve the rating you have and I wish you nothing but bad business here on out....
