Mahal Indian Restaurant in Tameside

Favourite curry house in Stalybridge

The food was delicious, but the restaurant was cold, which spoilt the meal. One of our diners had to wait for his meal, which meant the rest of the meals were just warm. Good value for money but not sure I would go in winter again, a shame as the food was lovely.

Always a warm welcome, lovely service with smile, excellent food and go that extra mile on special occasions. Last night, due to illness, I couldn't go to my son's birthday evening. I took a card, arranging for someone at the restaurant to collect it from my car - they were brilliant - thank you so much.

we are curry mile regulars but this stunning beautiful restaurant is a amazing place based in the tameside area , the owner is a amazing host and makes you feel your very special stunning sincere gentleman the staff is amazing ,but it's about the food why would a stranger take my word for it but il challenge them to beat this for flavours freshness and 100% the best I've ever tasted seekh kebab was thicker than normal and had spices in never tasted before stunning ,, we asked the recommendation for main wow the spinach and garlic lamb curry blown me away ,we could go on but challenge to find a better curry house around well done to the owner and staff seeya soon Simon and Carrie x

Absolutely love this place never had a bad meal yet Staff are friendly and you want for nothing very accommodating and they can cook to your preference

Had a fantastic time with my family at this restaurant. Brilliant food and great service from all the staff. In particular Hamza who waited on us was world class. He made our experience really positive. We liked it so much we got our family to go to Mahal. Highly recommended

Several of my friends have been Raving about this place so it was time to give it a try, The smartly dressed owner is always around and greats you with a smile and very friendly which rubs onto his staff, food delicious and fresh, deserves all the praise they are getting, well done

The best curry and service in the area. Made to feel welcome from the moment we stepped inside. The food is some of the best I've ever had. Would highly recommend and will certainly be going back .

Struggling to find a curry in Greater Manchester? Well, in my opinion, Mahal is one of the best curry houses in all of Manchester (maybe the UK) and let me tell you why… First off, let’s start with the interior. The design is so cool and there even is a water feature at one of the tables (in pictures). Furthermore, the atmosphere is really relaxed - the perfect atmosphere for a curry house! Most importantly though, the staff weren’t good. They were great. In fact, they were some of the best staff I have ever seen. They are so kind and they treat you like royalty, and they will do their very best to take care of you, something I think every other restaurant needs. Now let’s start with the food. I ordered a Mango Lassi and let me tell you, it is the best Mango Lassi you will find in Greater Manchester. It is so sweet, thick and creamy that it becomes borderline delicious and addictive. It pairs well with spicy dishes as well. As appetisers, I had roasted poppadoms. They were so crispy and had a smoky flavour, while the tray of chutneys was delicious. As starters, I had an onion bhaji. It was nice and crispy. Also, an honourable mention for the lamb chops. They were so succulent, flavourful, and tender that they were the perfect starter. For mains, I had the Ceylon curry. The Ceylon is a blend of delicious Sri Lankan spices - a must-try from me! The chicken was so tender as well! But the main event for me was the Peshwari Naan. This is a naan but it comes with a twist - crushed, sweet almonds are inside the naan. The almonds give the naan depth, making the naan even better! Also, the naan was perfect for soaking up curries - which is a great thing! The Pilau rice was also nice. Overall, this place is amazing. You need to try this place - it is essential to try!

Lovely food staff always chatty & friendly service is 10/10 if you haven't been here l recommend you visit cannot fault the food or the service here best in Stalybridge

Mahal is the best Indian restaurant I’ve been to. The food is absolutely beautiful. The lamb chops main is to die for. The service was outstanding from Hamza and Abu. They treated me and my family with so much love and respect. Definitely coming back!

Our first visit to Mahal but it won’t be our last. Between the 4 of us we had a variety of dishes and everyone said how nice the food was. The service was excellent, a very friendly team and when we got the bill there were no nasty surprises it was fine-can’t wait to go back.

First I thought the lady on the phone was absolutly lovely. Secondly I dont normally get that many takeaways as I am normally quite fussy on where I eat. However this food was absolutly geuoarges one of the best i have had.

This restaurant has been a fond favourite of mine from the day it opened its doors now. I honestly cannot fault it, I've been countless times and never had a bad experience, it never fails to blow me away! The service, staff, food and drinks are always unbeatable! I've never tasted lamb chops like it, amazing!!! I will be back soon, keep up the good work 👏 🙌

Second time at Mahal tonight and both times were excellent. Really good curry, sides and starters. Good service, big portions and good values. Highly recommended.

Food is amazing, staff are attentive and friendly. Always busy for a reason.

Amazing food, fantastic really comprehensive menu, great prices, friendly and helpful staff....highly recommend

Lovely meal and fabulous staff. We went for my son’s birthday and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals.

Best restaurant in tameside food is always bang on and good sized portions and the prices are good to

Been coming to this curry house since it opens staff have always been great food always tasted amazing and the lam chops are the best around

Hamza and his team are outstanding. Truly memorable night. Anyone that has never been give it a try. Outstanding team and food

Fantastic food first time here definitely be back .staff couldn’t be more helpful very busy place glad we booked husband loved it

Great surroundings, lovely people, delicious food. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our meal tonight! Service 10/10, really make you feel at home. The kids had a great time and the staff are very welcoming. Will be back for sure!

Staff were rude, also shouting at other staff members, the whole restaurant stunk of cigarette smoke, when I went to the toilet I could see the chef smoking a cigarette with no shoes on, in the cellar

Mahal Indian Restaurant exceeded our expectations with its delightful cuisine and warm ambiance. The chicken tikka vindaloo was perfectly spiced, and the naan was the best we have ever had. The service was impeccable, making us feel truly welcomed. We highly recommend this gem for an authentic and memorable dining experience. Five stars! Will be back 👍😍

First time order but won't be last.Best curries in along time.Well done!!

Lovely friendly staff and Stunning food. Great venue Nothing is too much trouble. Chef is very talented 👌 order regularly from here.

I went there based on the rating on google but just to realize that restaurants shouldn't be chosen based on ratings alone. I ordered prawn cocktail as a starter which was just okay. For the mains we ordered mixed grill sizzler and chicken biryani. Sizzler looked tempting but tasteless. Biryani was nowhere near to how biryani should be. It was flavourless and no seasoning at all. Hardly ate anything while I was starving. Wouldn't recommend anyone to go here if you're craving an authentic desi food. Complete waste of money.

Amazing food and friendly staff. Definitely will be coming back!

Only had a takeaway from Mahal. The starters and curries were really good. The pilau rice and chips were rather tasteless, and the garlic naan was disappointing too.

I love to find a good restaurant, when you are in the mood for an Indian one, then this is the place to go. Service was attentive but not intrusive. The food was absolutely top of its class. We was lucky to be there when it was opening and lucky to get a table. I believe this place books out. The atmosphere and setting is a pleasure also. Highly recommended

We were made very welcome when we walked through the door. We hadn’t booked but they found us a table. The staff were very attentive and friendly. The food was delicious, the best Indian food I’d had in a long time . I would definitely go back .

Very well presented place. The food was lovely and staff was too. Hands down the best Indian restaurant I’ve been to. Will definitely return

We had a takeaway of Chicken Jalfrezi and Ameri Murgh. Both dishes were delicious. They were very tasty with fresh ingredients. We will definitely dine in next time. The ordering process and customer service on collection was friendly and first class.

Love coming to the Mahal restaurant, Ali and his staff are amazing they make you feel so welcome, the foods lovely you couldn’t ask for more! Excellent service is worth recognition 😊

This place is friendly , excellent food , thanks to Ali (owner) for making our evening so pleasant and enjoyable. All the staff are friendly and welcoming and it is the best Indian food I have tasted . Well done and Thankyou

A wonderful place to eat, the best Indian restaurant by far, service impeccable, food delicious cleanliness outstanding, was recommended by a friend, and this restaurant will now always be our number 1 go to, even the young staff were so polite and helpful, it was just such a lovely evening. Thankyou all

I would highly recommend this place the foods great the staff are excellent we had a great night. Thanks guys

We go all over trying different curry houses. Last time we went to this place it was with previous owners,it was shocking. Was dubious to come back but so glad we did. The food was mega, staff were lovely,very attentive without being too much. Can honestly say best curry we've had in ages. We generally go to the plaza,aamani,etc will definitely have this as our local curry house now. Great place

Great place. Been there quite a few times now and the food gets better everytime. ordered butter lamb last night. chicken came out (which was great btw) as a gesture of good will, they gave me a butter lamb, rice and naan bread to take home (dinner for today sorted) They didn't have to do that as the food was fantastic. Great place, great staff.

Had Christmas lunch here today with my family. Wonderful food, as always, lovely atmosphere and brilliant service. The staff are amazing...pleasant, friendly and incredibly helpful and obliging. I cannot praise this place too highly.

8 of us went for a curry at the Mahal and the food and service was excellent. Special shout out to Ahmed who was our waiter. He gave us plenty of time between courses and never rushed us. Will definitely be back.

Went for a family get together B4 we all go away to separate countries 😞😭. To say there was a lot of us,the food was very nice. Wine lovely 🌹

Wow. Amazing. It’s hard to get a good curry these days but this place is 1st class. Beautiful restaurant and friendly and attentive staff. The popadums were super fresh and warm. Starters were amazing and the main meal equally as good. Highly recommended.

Top quality food and massive portions, one meal with serve two, nice place and very friendly staff. 👌

We have visited Mahal several times with family and friends over the past few months and have to say the quality of food and service is simply brilliant. It has a great friendly atmosphere and is now our favourite Indian restaurant.

For someone who doesn’t like Indian food I can honestly say this place changed my mind. The food was amazing and the staff were so friendly and helpful. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated and clean. 10/10 for the overall experience, will definitely be returning!

Went for a family meal and the service was a* The food was really nice, tasty, generous portions and fresh Modern and spacy But what made it, was the staff. Manager Noah was one of the nicest people in restaurant hospitality Deffo will be returning

Excellent. I cannot fault anything tonight. I would personally recommend the sweet chilli pakora starter! We will definitely come back.

First time here & can honestly say it’s a solid 10 Great food, great decor, great price You can tell if a restaurant is good if it’s busy & this place was packed 👍🏻

Food was great, service was amazing. Shame I don't live closer as I'd definitely get a takeaway from here too

First time visit at this restaurant for us, very pleased we were as well. Great food, excellent polite and helpful staff especially Noah and Raul (Hope I've spelt you name correctly Raul, apologies if i haven't)who served us. Fully recommend this establishment, the fixtures, fittings and decor are first class 👍👍👍👍

Wow, food amazing, staff friendly, especially Noah! Will be back

Here for the first time today and I’m pleasantly surprised. Lovely attentive staff with good humour, and even better food. Great drinks menu, and the food menu shows clear dietary restrictions. Will definitely be here again soon!

Been in for a meal tonight and by far one of the best Currys I've had in a long time! The waiter couldn't help anymore (Rahul) very polite man! 10/10!

Came here for my sister's birthday. Haven't been since it was taken over but I'm so glad we went. Every member of staff we came across were very friendly, they couldn't have done more to ensure we had a good time. The food tasted amazing and the rest of my party agreed, when the bill came we were pleasantly surprised at how low it was considering there were 8 of us. Will definitely be going again

Delicious food, 10/10 servive. Highly recommended

This is by far the best Indian food I have tried in a long time. Excellent friendly service and a warm welcome. Will definitely be back
