Maida Grill House in Salford

Nicest grilled food I ate in Salford. Will be ordering again tomorrow.

Great place to get a grill or a curry. I love it, my go to curry house.

Only place in Salford that can match Manchester's Kabana or this & that. Rice & 3 ....what's not to like, I don't have a bad thing to say after 10+ visits, cafe style environment with exceptional food, keema peas is on another level. The owners are nice people too, they can't do enough for you.

Fantastic value, taste and friendly staff

Great food. Great price. Great staff. Even charged my phone for me .

it is very good food i love the

Food was amazing really tasty and good portion size. Staff were friendly food came out quick and hot can’t wait to go back. Decor basic but most of the best food I’ve had come from places like this

Great plate of food for 8.50, photo shows daily specials pick 3 for that price with rice. Lamb masala was mild and flavourful, very tender. Keema peas had a nice kick and the daal was lovely.

Great food, great prices, lovely people

First time ordering here and won’t be the last. Food was absolutely amazing hot and on time. Thank you x

Great place for a tasty and quick snack)

Usually go to kabana or nehari house for my curry fix but this place is actually the closest. Huge portion for £8.50, rice N three..Will sample again.

being tired of bland turkish food, which is normally the go to,. wanted to go back to pakistani grill food., have come up from London and didn't know what to expect. ratings were good so ordered. DID NOT DISSAPPOINT. ordered for a party of 12, food was prepared quickly friendly staff, put food in a box to help carry . even offered to put in car. but the main thing was food had PERFECT spice, well cooked meat with additional complimentary flavours, pakistani spices and smells. the chutneys were nice , green (corriander) was the best but could've done with more, . one thing I didn't expect (having tukish food mostly) was SPICED salad. not just pure salad but though into salad with mild spice and cherry tomatoes with some sweet sauce( tamarind). almost everyone commented on the salad being very tasty, and almost everyone complimented the portion size and taste and spices. easily best kebab grill nan and salad I have had in years.

Unprepossessing building hiding great food.

The food is absolutely amazing and delicious from here! We had the Mixed Grill and the Chicken Biryani and it was gorgeous! Good quality, cooked to perfection, and importantly nice and spicy! Can’t recommend the food highly enough.

We had grilled foods today with the whole family. It was very authentic taste. We all enjoyed and will go there again.

Some of the best food I've tasted in my life. My meal completely changed my day -- started off on a losing streak but went to bed feeling lucky to have found a jewel in such an unlikely place. I wouldn't have tried it if it weren't for the previous reviews, as the facade/interior of the building did not immediately beckon me. I hope this review convinces you to see for yourself, and I hope your experience is as outstanding as mine was.

Great takeaway, or dine in if you prefer. Authentic food and great value. Friendly staff.

This place is mega. This and That in town is good, but this gaff is hands down better.

Amazing food, would definitely recommend. Grilled chicken tandoori was on of the best I’ve had

The best curries in Manchester. Absolutely delicious and the Kheer (rice pudding) unreal. You won't be disappointed.

Unbelievably good, every meat in every dish was so tender and all the food was delicious, also amazing buttered naan!

I went there following Jay Raynor's positive review in The Guardian. I have to say its even better than he said it was. The rice and three was excellent, beautifully cooked and belly filling. The staff were lovely and the prices unbelievable. If you are in the area, you must go there. I'm going back as often as I can

Ordered over the phone while I’m at work I got three meals or £21 only sauce salad

Delicious food with excellent customer service

Family owned restaurant which offers traditional Pakistani cuisine. You can sit in or grab a takeaway. It's a little hidden gem. Nicely cooked food and decent portions too. Nicely spiced curries and fresh chapattis or Naan bread. Kebabs on offer too. Recommended if you're in the area and need a curry or kebab fix.

Thursday 13th February, just had my first experience of Maida grill and I can only say it lives up to all the 5 star reviews. The food was amazing,the service just as good. Bill Saunders.

Lovely food, wonderful staff. No wonder they have such a high google rating.

Amazing value, great food. Will come again!

Consistently excellent. I first ate here after reading a glowing review from Jay Rayner and have been back many times since. Love it !!

Great hidden gem in Manchester, car parking in rear, keema cheese naan was lovely. Great food.

Came across this by chance, I was at Salford hospital, and after a very long tiring day just wanted some hot food! So googled eateries and this takeaway popped up, the reviews are what got me inside to begin with, as you walk in your met by the warm smell of spices and gorgeous aromas! The place is quite basic inside, but it’s clean and warm enough to sit down and enjoy your meal! It’s perfect if you’re not wanting to go anywhere fancy but want 5* food! The Staff are very polite and welcoming, they looked after me and my husband very well, we had the lamb curry, 1 rice, 2 chapati, lamb chop starter, mixed kebab on naan with salad sauces, and 2 drinks, all this for £29 what a bargain, it was my first but won’t be my last keep up the hard work guys your home made food and hospitality was 10/10 can’t wait to come back.

Absolutely quality. The food is unreal, the service is great and the restaurant is spotless. Can’t recommend Maida Grill House highly enough.

Really love this place having moved to the area a couple of years ago! Great food, staff so friendly and very no nonsense vibes!

Delicious food really well priced. I come here regularly.

Second time ordering from here and won’t be the last. Outstanding, delicious home cooked food. Well worth the drive to collect from Stretford.

Amazing food at an amazing price. Good service.

This is a hidden gem in Manchester/Salford! I love the food here! I’ve eaten here 5 times after accidentally coming across it recently. Every dish has been delicious and the staff are very friendly. The interior is basic, but that doesn’t bother me as I’m there for the food⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Visited Maida Grill House for the first time over Xmas after reading Jay Rayner's review earlier in the year. Wow. Food is wonderful - The lamb chops were superb and the three curries with rice were terrific, with the Keema Peas a stand out. The potato paratha was fabulous. Patrons were very friendly, helpful and welcoming. Will be back. Highly recommended. A+++

One of the best chicken biriyanis I have ever eaten. Loved the chickpea curry too which I had on top. Very authentic and tasty. Excellent service. An absolute gem of a place this. Highly highly recommend. Would love it 6 stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

I've only had stuff off the grill but it's 12 out of 10. Flavours, spice, service. Perfect every single time The chops are out of this world as is the chicken tikka nann sandwich. Also the tarimand sauce is to die for

This place caught my eye as I was driving past. What a hidden gem. We will definitely return. The rice and three is up there with the best. I will take pics on my return.

Ok so we zoomed across town from the Hockney exhibition at The Factory to have Sunday supper here. Jay Rayner (son of Claire) had reviewed the place recently according to Cornerhouse (ace human on the left) so that was the source of the foodie trip. The eponymous Maida served us and told me her name means ‘dining’ in Kashmir. She was super warm and friendly and accommodating of our group booking. Especially with awkward young mouths to feed. Anyone who can make food that my seven year old will eat — cheese chips — in a restaurant is alright in my book. The legendary food format of rice and 3 has its origin story in Manchester and that is what we were after. I had the lamb, the chicken korma and the aubergine vegetarian and they were all tasty as. I was also over the moon to get a Fanta drink I had never had before of two of my favourite flavours — pineapple and grapefruit. (Or had Coca-Cola just put their Lilt stock into a new can?) The price is such good VFM, as you knew I was going to write. The interesting thing about the price is though, while I was chatting with Maida at the till, the others were trying to remember the scientific name of the phenomenon when two visual images blend to become one IE this red and white Xmas bauble when span became pink. The Doppler Effect? Whatever is called it was magical and wonderful and really complimented our rating out experience at Maida’s 😋

I went here on my way to a Christmas party, Had the special of the day, good price and probably the best most authentic curry I have had. I will recommend and return. What a find!!!

Top quality authentic food at remarkably excellent value for money prices. I’m lunching on the Friday Specials Menu where you can choose 3 from 6 dishes including a couple that are vegetarian to accompany the rice. Great, friendly service; the restaurant is very clean and tidy - a real pleasure to dine here. Thank you Maida.

Maida Grill delivered an exceptional meal to our door. The rice was perfectly cooked—light and fluffy—while the paratha was fresh and delicately light. We tried both the meat and vegan rice and three, and both were outstanding. Each dish was well-spiced, served hot, and full of flavour. A beautifully satisfying delivery we’ll definitely order again!

Great food, fast and friendly delivery

Friendly service and tasty food at good prices

Great kebab better curries and sundries. Different kebabs and specials on each day.

Veg samosas and all the veg curries are unreal. My favourite takeaway!

Lovely little place Great tasting food No frills Top blokes that work there, run the place Really good family atmosphere

Truly delicious food, every time. And super reasonably priced in my opinion. Personally recommend Aloo Saag, Tarka Daal, Lamb Masala & Keema Naan. Manchester & Salfords 'hidden' gem!!!!!

I stopped in for a takeaway, the food was excellent, the service was good. The meal itself was good value for money. I would eat here again or get a takeaway.

Food is very homely. My kebab got slightly burnt and could do with extra salt. Service hygiene standards can be improved. One feedback: train people serving food to hold the bowl of curry from below (use cloth if hot) rather than hold from top and dip finger into the curry. Spotting a dirty finger tip going into curry right before eating isn’t a pleasant sight. Update: Visited this place a few more times, can confirm the food is as it should be. Tasty, homely and fresh! Brownie point for the happy man with a smile receiving guests.

Waited too long before I was served. Stood at the counter for ten minutes without any acknowledgement. But when I was served everyone was polite. Food was delicious though

Great customer and as well as the best rice and 3 in the city

Gorgeous chicken kebab can’t wait to try again

Little amount, chicken some are new, some are old, half quality

Excellent food and incredibly friendly service. Portion sizes are very generous with great value. Can't recommend highly enough!

Mixed grill kebab over rated . Meat grilled so was dry no flavour LIFE GRILLED OUT OF IT . Nan bread tasted of flour not cooked properly . 4/5 People running round like head less chickens and producing rubbish food . So if you rate this you must be a member of the family Giving reviews or you were not in the same place as me. Rated in the Manchester evening news WHY

SOOO tasty and really good prices. Will be ordering again!:)

Had a takeaway, food was sublime 😋

I would suggest a take away here. Food was delicious. We had chickpeas and rice along with chicken masala. Quantity was sufficient for an individual. There are a lot of nonveg options. Overall the place is value for money.

Nice tasty homely food and very good service. Atmosphere is a bit basic but fairly clean. My son enjoyed his last naan kebab here before heading back to Netherlands today.

This place is an absolute gem! Food is top notch, staff are very friendly and great value for money. 100% recommend!

Great people who make great food 👌

Food amazing lamb masala the lamb just melts in your mouth. Staff are so friendly and make you feel so welcome x

Incredible food, had the rice and three, and honestly the Dahl was my favourite. The chai was perfect too, and the parathas were the best I've ever tasted. I sneaked a taste of my sister's onion bhaji and that was crispy and sweet. My brother, who's vegetarian, was very happy with the vegan options.

Wow! Seriously impressed with this place. First time visit and it was probably the best rice and three I've ever eaten. Top quality food and lovely people. The lamb curry in particular was divine 😋 It's also superb value for money. Highly recommend 👌 Will be back very soon.

You won’t get a better rice and three than here. Wide variety of excellent daily specials, good value, and a decent enough (if “takeaway with seats”) environment if you want to eat in. Lovely team too.

It has taken us ages to get around to coming here, and hopefully like many we were prompted by Jay Rayner's wonderful review. We had one if the best curries we've had in years here. Across our two rice and three orders, we enjoyed lamb massala, karahi lamb, keema and peas, and aubergine and potato. Our empty plates followed 10 minutes later. Absolutely delicious. And only £8.50 each. Bargain. Wonderful place, very friendly owners, the menu changes daily and this is a fantastic addition to Salford/Manchester's rice and three scene. (check out Jay Rayner's review if you get the chance)

Great food 5x proper home cooked and lovely staff

Great food great staff I would highly recommend super flavours

Fabulous food a little gem in Salford would highly recommend

Everything perfect I hope I have time come back soon

I am sorry to say that this place has been overrated we ordered mix grill and two currys and got very disappointed kids didn't even touch the food kbab was like eating plastic and curry tasted not nice

2nd time I've eaten here and will be coming back. Really friendly staff , clean premises and pleasant atmosphere. Food is tremendous, I can highly recommend the samosas( both meat and vegetable ), seek kebabs , lamb masssala , chicken korahi and chapattis and garlic naan. Really reasonable prices. Tremendous, highly recommend.

Food is always great, plenty of meat in the Karahi and biryani, breads were beautiful. The burger was superb, adding a bit of salt on the chips would be the only feedback

Reasonable prices, family run, very friendly. Decent food, rice and three and mixed grill are nice. Free car parking.

Amazing food and lovely staff. Very friendly and welcoming. This is the only place we will eat take away from now. Honestly the best

Really tasty curries and excellent value. I went there randomly having walked past it a couple of times and decided to try it out for lunch. Authentic and home cooked flavours. Recommend the lamb curry with bone on.

Very authentic taste & friendly staff - we had chicken biryani and veg samosa. Must try in Salford

Delicious food, great value, quick delivery, great service. No negatives.

Very authentic and tasty food, delivery was extremely quick too

The best place to go when craving or wanting to try out Pakistani cuisine. The flavours might be elevated by friendly staff but I am not letting that affect how delicious the food truly is. No fuss, easily order at the counter and they bring it to you. If visiting on a cold day, their chai is pretty great as well.

Love this place. The staff are so friendly and the fella that runs the place is a great cook. The veggie samosas are delicious, chicken biryani is so authentically tasty and the chicken tikka is unreal. Prices are super cheap and all of the food is great quality ingredients and tastes so fresh.

Great value, mix grill was great, tasty lamb chops too. Read a bad review about the garlic nan, but it was absolutely fine! Good home made chilli sauce too. *Edit, just went visited This and That / if you like This and That then don’t come here as you’ll never go back to This and That! Still amazing authentic recipes everyday here - not been disappointed yet 🤞🏽

This is a hidden gem in Manchester by far the best rice and free around. I definitely must visit when heading to Manchester the lamb chops and the curries are amazing.

Excellent food lovely poeple very friendly let me have a taste before I purchased

Amazing service,as a visitor to Manchester,pop in this great little place,explained I was gluten free and was made an awesome tasty curry and rice,completely separate from any other foods

Fast food time and overall brilliant place to eat

I eat lamb curry, onion/ potatoe balls, Samosas and veggie/cheese naan. Even if the place where it lies, the ambiente are not that nice, the food is really tasty, delicious spices and nice service. Honest prices. Don't miss it.

As always friendly, fast and delicious 😋

I’m really not the one to leave reviews. However, this place was great. Food tasted amazing, the people were very polite and inviting and the price was amazing!

Delicious rice and 3 currys. Depth of flavour was very impressive 👏

Brilliant food extremely tasty full of flavour and great service. The 3 curry and rice gives you a chance to try 3of 6 daily curries. One of the east I've ate in Manchester and reasonably priced

Atmosphere none takeaway! Cracking curry today lamb masala and was very very good. Definitely calling again..authentic and spiced 2 perfection ... 😊

The food is so delicious and to some extent you do get the authentic tastes in the food irrespective of whatever dish you are eating. The service is excellent as well whether it comes to serving or assisting in anything. The atmosphere is quite nice you can enjoy your food in the comfortable environment.

Absolutely delicious. I had the rice and 3 with Paratha and it was sooo good I couldn't stop eating it. Really fresh and tasty. Staff were lovely. I'll be back again 😁

This is curry heaven! All the dishes are original in taste and authentic. Reasonably priced which is a bonus. I am Pakistani and have lived in Manchester for years and tried all the others.......this is the best.
