Afghan Cuisine is deffo one of the best places to eat in Manchester! The food is 11/10, the Mantu is hands down the best I’ve ever had & the Kabuli Pulao is just delicious! All the dishes are full of rich, authentic flavours. The staff are also exceptional - so welcoming, respectful & attentive. Their hospitality really enhances the overall experience. The value for money is amazing. You get such high quality food at a very reasonable price. I always make sure to visit this place whenever I’m in Manchester. Highly recommend.

Always denies to take payment by card, which is ridiculous, if your order is less than 50 gbp, they will say that card machine is not working. It's been 5 times I have visited.

The nan was just soo soft yet had a crunch as well.. enjoyed having a fresh kobeda with the salad and sauces they give. The prices are decent as well, easy access and parking right in front. The service was quick, and easy to speak to them if you needed anything else. Upstairs has a TV and a range of seating spaces. Separate toilets for use and tbh it was quite clean to use.. I would have liked the open balcony to be opened as it did get really hot inside. Child seats available.

I went there with one of my friends in the early afternoon and the place was nice and quiet. We ordered the naan with tikka, chips and the rice with Grilled chicken. They were all so nice!! I got the tikka and it was juicy and not dry at all like it is sometimes. It could do with a bit more spices though. The sauces are quite good too, especially the red one. Overall the experience and food was amazing. Definitely recommend! Remember to bring cash as they only accept cash.

I've been a loyal customer here for almost ten years, and I've always loved the Afghan qabili pilau. The flavors and authenticity of the food have kept me coming back time and again. Unfortunately, my experience has been overshadowed by the fact that they only accept cash. In today's world, it's inconvenient not to offer more payment options, especially when everything else about the place is so good. If they could adapt and provide card payment methods, it would make the dining experience even better.

The qabli pilau rice was delicious and I would highly recommend - the meat was cooked well and tender. The kobeda and Nan were also fresh and tasty. An amazingly delicious Qabli Rice every time we eat here. We've been dining at Afghan Cuisine for over 12 years and the recipe has remained unchanged. It's always busy here! Service is pretty quick. I recommend coming here for authentic and hearty food. Yes the prices have increased lately but it's worth dining here every now and then!

First of all, this is a cash only place, so be prepared. They are 100% tax evaders. The taste of the food is okay. Kebabs were nice, but the rice was pretty average in taste and nit close to kabuli pulao as they claim. The cleanliness of the restaurant is also average. Wait time is huge. Not bad, but there are plenty of good places that you can try for the same line of food.

Today, I visited an Afghan Cuisine and opted for the Qabli Pilau, accompanied by a flavourful chickpea and potato broth, along with salad and sauce, all for £12.99. The price was reasonable considering the quality and quantity of food. The flavors were clean, refreshing, and the meat was tender. Payment is cash-only, but transferring money directly to their business account is convenient. The service was also commendable. I opted for takeout, and the food remained hot until I got home. A suggestion would be to wrap the lentil curry in clingfilm to prevent spillage. Overall, it's a fantastic dining spot, and I plan on returning.

Every so often, my family orders a takeout from Mazaaa! My familia say the food is quite tasty and well cooked (as images show).. Although what frustrates them is (at times) the food may be a little too spicy than expected/portion size is not enough/even a bit burnt (maybe they are just being greedy). :D Mr Shahid (the owner) has great customer service and customer relation skills, as do a few of his staff, such as his sidekick - the man who usually manages the phone orders... This place is well run at busy times when Mr Shahid is actually there..Because Mr Shahid makes sure that orders are sent out in due time. This diner is always kept clean and tidy whenever I pop in to pick up my order. Mazaa also has delivery service (with deliveroo and Uber Eats). It's quite useful as it saves us a deal of time if we decide to order online. My review had gone down to 3 stars because in the past we had ordered a portion of chicken and chanaa daal but instead we only received a portion of chanaa daal which was quite oily to the point that it had spilt through the paper bag.. And, (more recently) we had to wait over an hour for our order - It was only a small order as well.. In the future, we will try to order at less busier times, yet that can't always be the case because we only order on weekends. Although, one must consider that staff are sonetimes are dealing with many orders at one time, and therefore, they can make a mistake in order and/or increase the predicted ready time of the order...
