Afghan Cuisine in Manchester

Friendly local grill spot. Huge portions, good sides & salads. Pleased to report it's still there, good as ever & appears to be thriving.

Nice and fantastic taste of Midel East. I'm suggest you try Ghabeli polo.

Amazing food and good price for the high quality of food

Food is lovely, we went here with friends and staff is very friendly

Wasn't expecting the food to be soo good here. But it WAS! It's not a fancy dine in experience or 5 star service but the food bursts your mouth open with flavour and the meat quality is 10/10. Prices are good. Definitely would recommend and go back

Delicious and authentic Afghani food. An absolute treat.

The food was very good as was the price.

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.

Great traditional afghani food. Very reasonably priced as well.

Very testy food has been coming here more than 10 years

Qabuli pulao was nice and rest was ok

One of the best Afghani food in Manchester good customer service on time I will definitely go back over again and again

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.

Amazing yummy food, the only place you can sit outside upstairs on Wimmy Road too, the traditional Manto dish is lush!

The food was beyond good, and I loved the comfy booths. Decor nice too. Thanks guys!

Beautiful food, fast and friendly service. Try the lamb chops!

Very tasty, freshly cooked, food. The grilled chicken is especially nice. Good for families

One of my favourite, however, the meat portion is less than before.

Very delicious food and very reasonable prices

Was a great experience taste also 😋 good just toilet was not clean other then that place was clean food is amazing

Very good food and excellent customer service

Fantastic range of Asian and English breakfasts and teas.

One of the best restaurants on Arab Street

Wonderful Afghan food. The kebabs and lamb chops are just super awesome. The service was very quick

Excellent food. Value for money. Excellent service

Amazing Dine In experience, highly recommend the food . Served on time . Very polite and nice serving. Great service from Fiza.

not good quality drinks 👎🏽 fake cola

Visited this place today with the family, food was spot on, everything was fresh, only downfall was the naan bread was soaked in the kebab fat, which is a little off putting. Other than that food was great, customer service was excellent

Good desi food and cheap as well went there yesterday and for 5 people spend 65 quids was quite good

Loved their meat quality in lamb …. Very young aged meat with good aroma … Lamb chops are delicious , lamb kababs were mouth watering along with their kabuli Pullao , chicken needs improvement as it was little less cooked ….

Great food, very fresh, low price and quick.

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.

This is our go to place for kebabs in rusholme. Double kobeda is a serious task. Super fresh food, always good.

Food here is amazing, great place for kebabs, kabli pillaow

Always good food and lovely atmosphere

They have lost me as their customer because I went in and ordered and I told them that last time the salad wasn’t very fresh and the guy at the front said with an attitude that whatever they have is here and its always fresh. I cancelled my order and left so disappointed

Visited for the third time. Food was delicious.

Spent £30 for my dinner received microwaved old food. When I complained I was sent away Been a customer for years here and was told lies never coming back.

The food is amazing but it's usually very busy and you need to find your own table, if you're with a big group of people the waiting time will be long, other than that i definitely recommend.

It was okay than the service we expected but the one chicken we received was not cooked very properly

Good decent Afghans food and reasonable prices. Highly recommended.

This place is amazing.....the Ezme is gorgeous......so tasty.... And the food itself.....atmosphere, service ......FIRST CLASS!!! Will be visiting again!!!

Delicious food sufficient quantities prices are reasonable

Rice on al Faham is really nice . Recommended.

Nice food”” friendly staff & good service

Good overall. With fresh hot bread.

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.

Really bad service and they are asking for payment for the drinking water the staff behaved like rude

this restaurant very bad they are asking payment for just drinking water its feel awful

Was an amazing experience. We ordered our food and the service was amazing. Nice environment for friends, couples and families. The food was actually delicious. Would defo recommend

we came there first them and were very impressed with cleanliness.Food was very nice and staff friendly.Overall pleasant experience! We will back

The food is good and would recommend anyone who likes grab a quick lunch or after work meal. The Kobeda we bought was as expected. The staff are also friendly.

Extraordinary food esp kabuli pulao

EATING THIS FOOD IN OTHER PLACES THIS PLACE IS ABOVE ALL OF THEM FRESH QUALITY FOOD FAIR PRICES OWNER VERY FRIENDLY CLEAN PLACE

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.

Food taste horrible this time . I told the guy on the counter about the food and he just ignored me , his face was like i dont care if the taste is no good . Paid 25 pounds and felt like wasted the money . Been coming here over years but today felt like last day for us .

Very nice authentic afghan cousine

Not a luxurious place but good food with good price 👌

One of the best places i have ever been. We ordered a whole lot and it was worth it. The kofta kebab was really good and the grilled chicken was perfection. I didn’t try the rice but i heard it was pretty good. The seating was real good as it had a view to the street.

The food is always fresh, staff are very polite and the customer service is great

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!

Good Food... amazing taste... good portion.. . good price... overall good experience....

One of the best restaurants in rusholme in my opinion

Had the lamb Kabuli Pilau, came with a little dhal thingy and some dips/sauces. Top tier and good value 👌

The mix grill was 10/10, juicy and full of flavour. 4star only because its Cash only :(

kobeda dry and too salty waiting time is a bit too long but thats okay rice was okay but had 3 pieces of meat there, not sure where it come from naan looks good but dought needs longer fermenting to develop flavor as its bland?

Lovely 👌 food and affordable prices Excellent portions. my personal favourite was the mixed Grill, Chicken with Rice.

The best qabilay pilau in Manchester and beyond. A range of tasty authentic grilled dishes. There is plenty of seating upstairs and a balcony. High chairs are available. Car park across the main road. Can get quite busy on occasions. Don't forget to take cash as they only accept cash. ATM across the road

Nice 👌 food and affordable prices.my personal favourite for afghan food.

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.

Never fails to impress myself and my family! The food was 10/10 quick, hot, and delicious and fresh. The salad was fresh! The rice was beautifully cooked, and chicken and meat were really nice too! Although I wish the water was colder as it was a super hot day. The atmosphere was very home like everyone was friendly. People were coming in and out it was busy. Service was also 10/10

Trust me, you need to try this! I may be biased as this is my boyfriends favourite eat, but if you’re looking for some good, no nonsense Middle Eastern cuisine - this is the place for you. The hummus is an absolute MUST

Had the kebab and rice, both were good, this place has a nice view of wimslow road from the balcony area.

One of the best places for decent food in Manchester for the price

Absolutely brilliant we all ordered 7 different items from the menu and all the food was fresh, excellent flavour, good salad and sauce portions. The food can not be faulted. I highly recommend Afghan Cuisine. I was just dissapointed that the did not serve tap water, ( they know they should serve tap water freely, if asked. insha'Allah they will think about this and build even more barakat for their families. My best wishes.

In this day and age claiming not to take credit card payments is simply unbelievable.

Comfortable and large seating, the food was as expected, especially the grilled fish and barbecue.

They reheat the Kabuli Pilau in microwave. I am not gonna go anymore there.plus the price is more as well .

Not at all good . No fresh chicken

I went once years ago and I still think back fondly. The food was divine.

It's a decent eatery. Reasonable prices which have increased in line with the trend on the street. Parking is a bit of a bother though. Kabuli pilau is definitely recommended. Cash only.

Food was average, nothing special. Have eaten in Afghan restaurants before and they taste much much better. The customer service needs some training as well.

Last time I visited around 3 years ago. It is still good as I remember it. Worth the travel and money

Cash only venue so didn't stay took 20min to get a menu another 25mins to be told they don't take orders at the table and then told it's cash only only vegetarian offering was chips

The food was good, but it was a very busy place & all the waiters were rushing around. There was a slight mistake on my order, but it was sorted out quickly. Parking is always an issue around here.

Excellent food... excellent service... worth every penny

Good service and nice atmosphere. The grilled meats were great, but the kabuli rice disappointed me a little

Never had anything so tasty like this. Qabuli pilaw🤤😝

Beautiful pulao, so full pf flavour. Great service, Great kobeda. High standard food every time.

Food was very nice, tried it for the first time. will be back.

Good food good service no amenities

Very delicious, nice and cooperative staff

Disgusting chicken Full of feather I paid £57 for disgusting food They did not even clean the chicken. I understand that it was so busy day before iftar in Ramadan but at least serve your customers properly.

Trust me I paid 20£ for two dishes and put both dishes to the garbage. We had chicken alfham on rice and chicken shawarma on rice. They warmed up the chicken with an old salad that you could easily smell it’s aged. There was loud tv and a number of men standing around us. The taste and service for this price is unbelievable. Frankly speaking, won’t recommend it for my enemy.

Ordered kabuli pilaf and al faham absolutely disgusting food. Kabuli pilaf taste like its not fresh and meat taste and smell bad. Chicken alfaham was dry burnt and overdone. I asked for humus and they charged 5 pounds for a tiny portion. Never gonna go again.

The Afghani palao at was truly exceptional. The rich flavors and aromatic spices transported me to the streets of Afghanistan. The perfectly cooked rice and tender meat added to the delight. The portion size was generous, leaving me completely satisfied. Truly a must-try dish!

Wow... Fabolous place, very delicious kebab , Chops and Afghani rice... Real taste of food.

I am their regular customer since 6yrs. Normally nice but this time they served me pink chicken (alfaham) i asked him to replace it for me but he recooked (burnt)the same one and brought it back. I again send it back but this time food never came back. I was dining in. But this was my last meal from this place.

they make lovely kobeda kababs, lamb chops.delicious rice and sauces.what i dont like is their naan breads.overall very nice food. 8/10

Great taste, and attracts lots of customers. Probably they need to expand their existing space 😃
