Just called the restaurant asking about something in their menu on Uber Eats, and the owner goes I don’t have time for this, you come here and look at it or don’t bother us calling.

I have to say this is my favourite curry house EVER! The lamb curry is absolutely delicious! Always fresh and with ginger is just incredible. The owner and staff are all very kind. It’s a must when visiting Manchester. Also great value for money too. 👌🏻😍👌🏻

Been looking forward to trying this place for ages, not sure what all the fuss is about. Service is quick but not very friendly. Nihari was OK but a small bowl for £7? Wasn't really worth it. I saw a member of staff taking used napkins off tables and putting them back with clean ones.

I work 1 day a week in the Northern Quarter and we have food here weekly for curry Wednesday. Chicken biryani and Lamb Karahi is about£15 which is a decent portion for two people. Staff are great, you can have a laugh with them and the wait isn't long most days for your food if at all. Food is flavoursome, fresh and generous would recommend this hidden gem by that from the outside doesn't look like it should be up there with places to try curry in Manchester. Worth order kababs over the phone as they are made fresh for collection.

Located centrally in the northern quarter this is down to earth placed but one that serves excellent food. Three of us called in for their rice and three offer which allows you to choose three from that day specials and have it with either rice or a chapati as we did. The mince and pea was very good, the spinach and the potato the same but the star of the show was the lamb on the bone which was absolutely excellent. £8 each for this is great value as well and they provide free water and chilies and coriander if you want them. The service was a bit hazard on the day we went in but I'm sure that was just because it was busy and we really enjoyed our time there.

The price is reasonable and the portion is quite large. I’ve ordered a lamp chops. It was so tender and juicy, just tastes slightly burnt but overall is a 8/10. Both dishes are freshly cooked and served hot which tastes extra nice on a rainy day. ₊˚ ⋅ 𓐐𓎩 ‧₊˚ ⋅⋆◡̈

Spent £40 here... on my own... for lunch. I binned half the food because it had spilt all over the bag. Nothing left to eat really. They pack it in foil and cardboard trays... maybe think of different packaging. Called the place to complain and just got attitude...

This place is really busy... but the food is not what I expect. Being Pakistani myself. I can tell the flavors have been dulled down for a city centre crowd. Sometimes you can't please everyone. Also, I love the lamb kharai. On the bone. But I noticed when you go later in the day, and its been sitting there... it tastes off. If you say anything to the owner Riz... you just get back chat and an attempt to humiliate you. Not a spot for me anymore...

Having watched a YouTube gourmet raving about this place, (especially the lamb chops) I just had to pay a visit. Crazily it occupies the same corner plot as a fantastic little curry house, Cafe Yacoub that I ate at 4 times a week back in 81/83 and reminisce about to this day! Head for the junction of Back Turner and John St in the Northern quarter and just dive into the menu...we chose their famous curry and three, chosen from the specials board. (Preposterous value at £8.50). A lovely soft and substantial chapati helped mop up deeply flavoured gravy from the lamb, chicken and spinach perched atop fragrant, perfectly cooked rice, and then a few minutes later...drum roll...the chops arrived! Huge, charred and insanely moreish they're probably the best I've EVER tasted and at £6.50 another ridiculous bargain. Super sweet, runny rice pud for afters rounded off everything with a palate cleansing flourish and left me feeling blessed I live within a few miles of Manchester. Goes without saying the kitchen crew are smooth, efficient and fast....they have to be as I overheard the main man take a telephone order for 28 portions! With two softs the bill spiralled up to £21, and I defy anyone to find better food at that price anywhere on God's green earth. All hail Kabana, the best curry house you've never heard of.....until now!

Probably my favourite of the curry cafes in Manc for a "rice & 3" now the Al Faisal has moved (and IMO isn't as good). Big portion of food, the 3 curries were all very different and tasty, and the roti was steaming hot! Just off the busy pedestrian strip which is now rejuvenated with bars, Kabana is definitely recommended.

Had a surf and turf which I thought was great value, prawns were exceptionally crispy and paired great with the lemon mayo and the FLANK STEAK, SOOOOOOO DAMN GOOD, was so tender and juicy and had an incredible smoke flavour, the chips were awesome and the salad gave great freshness, not ur bog standard salad! The mixed box with the trilogy meats was also outstanding, crispy sticky beef, salt and pepper chicken and sticky chicken were all so tasty, will deffo be back and don't forget to try all the sauces!!!!
