Had a quiet Sunday lunch at Amma’s Canteen and we were delighted with the food! Chicken 65 was excellent and a highlight for me personally.
Chicken Thoran dosa was fairly good. The chutneys and sambar that accompanied it were excellent.
The meat in the Kerala Beef Curry was cooked to perfection. The curry itself, although very tasty, had some room for improvement to add that extra oomph and some more depth of flavour that one would expect in an authentic Nadan Beef Curry. Parotta and Beef is a classic combination, and I absolutely loved the Malabar parotta here, it was served hot and was perfectly crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside!
I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a good South Indian cuisine experience in Manchester.
Solid, authentic South Indian food. We had the Dosa, Chicken 65 and Allephey Fish Curry. The fish was slightly too fishy for me but that might be a personal preference.
Finally, I got the perfect chicken 65 (like India) in Manchester. The staff is quite friendly and the food was just amazing. The chicken 65 and beef sukha is highly recommended to anyone visiting for the Time.
We had an excellent meal coupled with exceptional service 👌. Well worth a try .
My daughter's Dosa was absolutely superb 👌
A real South Indian (Tamil) restaurant, sambar vada, potato wedges with gun powder 😋 and masala dosa is a must try. Porotta is nice as well, madras mussels with peanut twist 🤩, chicken 65 and lamb biriyani 😋 overall food is awesome and they make it specially for our taste buds.
The owners are so friendly and so welcoming.
Will try again😋.
Three of us had an evening meal on Sunday, it was the first time I’d been. The food was delicious and very different from other south Indian food I’d eaten.
Lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Fish curry and paneer curry were both delicious, with very different spicing. Parathas tasty and flaky.
The waitress was really helpful in explaining how hot each dish was, and making compromises where possible it was a lovely meal and I can thoroughly recommend Amma’s Canteen.
We had some delicious Indian food that had a modern twist. Very impressed by this humble Chorlton restaurant. The staff were superb and it was lovely to see their enthusiasm for the menu. We will be back very soon
Great food and excellent and friendly service. It really is a hidden inconspicuous gem in Manchester, it's fairly pricy though. I think the front face of it could be more aesthetically appealing though.
Tasty South Indian food - highly recommend the Madras mussels, deep-fried okra, beef sukka and the masala dosa! The owners are a friendly couple and put so much care and effort into every dish. Highly recommend a visit!
Truly amazing Lamb biryani, was sublime. The selection of street cart dishes we ordered were good. The staff were very welcoming and on the ball with the Covid measures, we felt well looked after and safe eating in.
The only reason I can't give a 5 star is the value for money, the portion sizes are small with a high price point for the size.
I don't doubt we will be back, but not as often as if the price was that little bit more reasonable.
