I have to give a shout out to Last Monsoon in Stockport because to me it's a shining example of just how good Bangladeshi cuisine can be. Alongside some more run-of-the-mill choices you'll find exotic choices like Satkori Lamb (highly flavoured spices with shatkora fruit) and Bengal Sil-Sila (chicken or Lamb tikka medium strength cooked with spices garlic ginger cumin seeds andsweet pumpkin) and there's even steak for those who don't want spice.
The venue itself is nothing to write home about, but it's comfortable and modern enough and the staff are very helpful and friendly. With most dishes weighing in at around £5.95, this is quality at a price you can't beat. Get yourself down there if you're local (and even if you're not).
This is the best Indian we've had in Stockport so far. The 'sundries' were particularly good - very flavoursome onion bhaji and peshwari naan. As for the mains, we got the garlic chicken chilli massala and the Bengal Sil Silla. The latter was great, it was hotter than I expected and had a lovely rich flavour. The former was a lot milder and didn't really taste of much. The special tandoori platter was nice although we were a bit full by that point - it was maybe a little drier than the excellent one I had at the Purple Pakora. If I hadn't over-ordered by getting that, it would have been £10 a head which is good value for the amount of food.
Delivery was a little slow and then the driver had problems finding the house so if you're mega hungry go and collect!
Feel the need to update my review as I was too harsh in my first review. This is the best local restaurant in Stockport hands down. Food is delicious, quality is fantastic, but the staff here is what takes this place into a higher category. Most welcoming and a really decent atmosphere here.
Had our 1st visit last night and I was not disappointed we had the set meal for £9.95 each we had drinks bought to the table with the popadoms and dips, we each had the mixed starter which was lovely, I opted for the lamb rogan josh with rice wow it was gorgeous the meat was so tender and melted in the mouth the sauce was amazing I enjoyed every mouthful, my son had the chicken jalfrezi which was really nice im having that next time lol my husband had the chicken tikka masala which was a bit rich for me but he enjoyed it, we finished the meal with ice cream, the portiom sizes are good I have a good appetite and was starving and I left full and contented.
The staff are really nice and helpful service was very efficient.
A brill experience we will be returning soon.
Thank you
Last Monsoon is wicked. I'm a regular. I wasn't too hopeful in the beginning because the restaurant is housed in an old social club building and it doesn't look to clever but get inside and it's fine. It's large with plenty of tables and a waiting area for those waiting for takeaways or other diners. The food is great, I can't recommend it enough. It's better than most on offer in Rusholme. The Deshi vegetables dish is great, as is the Nepali chicken if you like things hot. service is good, although some of the waiters are young and miss a trick by not offering you a drink and poppadums as soon as you sit down. In that respect they could learn from restaurants in Rusholme. The food is very reasonably priced and the quality is good.
I go here with my friends who are Indian and they say this is one of the best places there is!
We use these guys every so often, always good food with a smile
Last Monsoon is said to be one of the most interesting restaurants in Stockport. I don't go to Stockport often but this is one of the delights. Although it offers a massive variety of eastern cuisine it also offers some European dishes so it can cater for most. Although this is a stylish place that is aimed at the young professionals it can be ideal for quiet family dinners or celebrations. If you like Asian food then you will really like this place. Although I love this place I don't really know what most of the dishes are, the chief staff advised that most of the dishes are unique to Bangladesh, they dishes are very succulent and full of very tempting spices. When I went here I ordered the Chicken Tikka, I know it's a safe bet but I wanted to try something I knew I would love. My friend tried other dishes and I had to have a taste and I must admit everything was perfect. The staff and the restaurant itself were of a very high standard, I will definitely be going back here again
This is a fantastic Bangladesh resturant. If you like spicy foods then this is certainly for you. The menu also offers dishes that are different from the norm. Good service and good atmosphere, very resonable prices too. Good for meals out with friends and special occasions as it is quit a large restaurant with plenty of tables.
16 of us st my sisters 70th birthday. Fantastic night. Fantastic food and service. Beautiful atmosphere, beautiful place. Highly recommend it. Will be there for the next family's birthday party.
Plenty of staff working, quick service, sells alcohol, clean, good food.
I have eaten in this restaraunt and ordered take out. The food is impeccable and the staff are really nice. However, the delivery time for take out is ridiculous.
I ordered on Just Eat and was given at 90 minute window for delivery, that is fine as I know how busy it is but it didn't turn up for nearly 2 hours and Just Eat had it marked as delivered but when I called them they hadn't even set off yet!
This really needs to be looked at our at least have Just Eat not have it marked as on route or delivered when neither was the case!
Stayed in Stockport for work and ate out here Wednesday 11th October. Beautiful food, fresh, tasty and lovely presentation. Staff were welcome and attentive. Wish I lived closer!
Food is very tasty. Though the onions in the curry were too hard, they needed to be cooked for longer. The rice portions for takeaway are too small, they need to compress the rice when putting it in the foil tray.
Absolutely amazing curry piping hot lovely food great service would well recommend to anyone looking to order a curry you won't be disappointed! Onion bahjis slightly greasy but other than that top quality! I ordered online and they followed all my requests and made my food exactly how I asked for it! Couldn't fault it even got free popadoms and extra sauces 😋😋 thanks last monsoon it won't be the last you'll be seeing of me that's for sure!! No rating on the atmosphere as I ordered from home lol
Fathers Day visit with my 2 children. On arrival we had to queue for 10 minutes just to get to talk to a member of staff to let them know we were there and that we had a booking. Sat down and no menus or drinks order taken. After 15 mins another table gave us their menus. We kept stopping passing staff to ask for drinks and saying we wanted to order. It took 1.5 hours for our mains to arrive from the time we sat at our table. I have to say the food was excellent and soon as we had finished the bill arrived without asking for it. For 3 of us the bill was very reasonable. I would go back but not on a special day to see if the service is any better. To sum up, great food at reasonable prices but disorganised chaos...
Ordered an Uber eats delivery from here almost every week for the last month and every time it’s been so consistent! The chicken tikka masala is so tasty and flavoursome which is hard to find these days! Other sides are delicious too, always comes hot! & they read the notes! Really reccomend their set meal for 2! Great price and good portions and authentic and flavoursome, you can actually taste the depth of flavour and that they’ve put care and attention into the food.
First time at this restaurant. The service was impeccable from start to finish; our meal was superlatively prepared/presented and truly scrumptious. The interior was very clean and inviting, a pleasant surprise given the nondescript exterior. I will most certainly be back for more and highly recommend you all check it out. Price was worth it!!
Do ask after either Rez or Tony; they will give you a courteous, professional and prompt service.
Had a take out this evening, great food good portions reasonably priced mixed starter lovely. Would reccomend,definitely go again.
