Sindhoor South Indian Restaurant in Bury

Visited tonight with my dad, great food and great service! I would definitely visit again. I had a lmab dish which was perfect and my dad had beef, we shared a chicken rice which was perfect!

NEW OWNERS HAVE OPENED SINDHOOR AGAIN.THEY HAVE REDECORATED AND CREATED A NICE DINING EXPERIENCE.THE FOOD IS SENSATIONAL AS THEY STILL EMPLOY THE ORIGINAL CHEF WHO CREATES AUTHENTIC SOUTH INDIAN FOOD. I HAD A CRISPY CAULIFLOWER STARTER AND A SUPER TASTY FISH DISH SERVED IN A BANANA LEAF, MY BETTER HALF HAD A CHICKEN STARTER AND HER FAVOURITE DOSA , THIS IS A CRISPY PANCAKE LIGHT AS A FEATHER WITH A SUMPTUOUS FILLING.WE WASHED THIS DOWN WITH A BOTTLE OF CHARDERS AND A PINT OF COBRA, ALL THIS FOR UNDER 60 POUND.. FOR THE OLD SINDHOOR FANS JUST TO LET YOU KNOW THERE ARE A LOT OF NEW STREET FOOD DISHES ON THE MENU AND NEW MAIN COURSES TOO. WE WILL BE GOING BACK SOON..

Went to celebrate my friends birthday. There were quite a lot of us and to make it easier, we sent our menu choices ahead of the meal. I went here quire a few years ago and it was very nice. In the past year or so it always looked quiet but has recently picked up and the reviews are good. Plus it seems to have had a bit of a makeover. All I can say is the service was excellent. They handled the large group of us brilliantly. Staff were extremely friendly. We all enjoyed our food. It seems to have more flavour than other Asian places. I loved my meal, but one person had the fish starter. I tried it and tbh it was one of the nicest dishes I have ever had. I will return again soon. Also the portion sizes are good and it seems to be good value as well. Well done. We all had a great time.

If you’re looking for your normal balti, bhunas, jalfrezi etc then you won’t find them here What you will find is fantastic different authentic South Indian food All really tasty with lots of different choices that you won’t find in your local curry house like sesame chicken dumplings, Dosas to name two See you again soon!

Really pleased to see it is reopen for eat in. The food was excellent very authentic. Dosa had plenty of filling coconut chutney was great flavour that you don't get everywhere. Tea was perfect. All at a great price, we will definitely be back very soon.

We are quite a frequent customer and yes sometimes things were missing but this time it was lacking flavours, was too greasy and like it wasn't done... If that quality won't improve we would have to change our favourite restaurant....

Have eaten at the restaurant and enjoyed it but this timer ordered a take away via Uber eats . Food arrived piping hot in good time however the onion Bhajis were soggy and and quite spicy. I had a Malabar lamb curry which came in a tasty rich sauce but the lamb was rubbery with a not so nice taste. My wife had a Kumarakom Fish curry which was very thin and watery . She ate the fish but very little of the sauce. Both meals came with large portions of pilau rice and we had an ok peshwari Nan . Very disappointed hence the poor rating . Maybe hopefully they had a one off bad night.

Absolutely delicious South Indian food! Fast, friendly service. I would definitely recommend Sindhoor!

We visited on Saturday 5 September and had a lovely meal. The fish curries are excellent. A little bit different to the usual Indian restaurants and all the better because of it - the best Indian food in the area (Lily's in Ashton being a close second).

Very expensive for the portion size you receive and we were disappointed that we didn’t order from our regular unfortunately.

It was Eid, and we called up the previous day and asked if they could do a special takeaway order for lunch for a group of 8, and they agreed even though they are not normally open for lunch. We ordered lamb biryani, chicken biryani, pomfret pollichathu, chicken 65 and beef coconut fry. The service was amazing when we went to pick up the food, and the food tasted great too - liked everything we ordered and truly made our Eid memorable. Thanks guys - will drop by whenever we are in M'cr next.

Our first post lockdown meal and we visited our old friends at Sindoor in Whitefield. Ok, let’s temper everything! First meal out so probably going to be biased! No, the coconut dry beef, the prawn and chicken curries were outstanding! If you like authentic Indian food and in particular Southern Indian cuisine, Sindoor is a must! I have travelled India and this is the closest you will get! Service was fantastic!

A delicious refreshingly different menu, full of interesting twists on dishes I had tried before, but some I'd never heard of. Intimate setting, friendly service and the food! WOW

Friendly staff. Excellent service and amazing food. Good value. Tuesday to Thursday excellent three course menu options.

Delicious food and great service. Different to the usual Indian restaurants. Highly recommend 😋 Flavoursome dishes

Had an excellent visit on a Sunday pm with family—5 of us.Ordered a variety of starters and then 3 mains with accompaniments.The guy was honest with his appraisal of both choice and quantity. All dishes were very tasty—freshly cooked and seemingly very authentic.We are ‘curry’ snobs and tend to avoid suburban restaurants. But Rusholme now is even harder to get a good meal—and I think we have just found our new place?Well done sindhoor—-we will be back

We like a good Indian meal and this place didn’t disappoint! It’s small, friendly an the staff lovely.We had the popadoms and chutney which were nice and fresh, followed by lamb chops which hubby said had a bit of spice to them and I had my favourite onion bhagie, must admit these for me were a little heavy and very big!Hubby had a chicken dish with lemon rice which he finished off in no time and again was spicy, I Had chicken biryani, it was huge enough to feed two after having a starter, big chunks of chicken and a boiled egg on the top, another popadom and chutney, again it was nice but to much, so ended up with a doggy bag.For a first visit it was very good, a little more spicy than I’m use to but this didn’t put me off will be going again!

went here Fri 19.07 with my Wife,Been here 3 or 4 times before always been the best Curry House around,Not this time thouGot here approx 7.00pm Restaraunt was empty,the same guy who shown us to our table,served us our drinks and meals and told us they were out of Gin & Rum as they had a rush on the night before !!!Our Starters arrived very quickly then our mains then our billI think we were in there about 45 mins for 2 Courses & 2 drinks Always been spot on in the past but not this timeMay try other Curry Houses in the future

Best South Indian restaurant in manchester .special paneer tikka is the best starter Nice atmosphere highly recommended 5 stars

You will not find a more authentic restaurant with crisp spice tastes that I have never tasted before. 10 out of 10 every time.

Great authentic south Indian food. Good service. Good for dinner and lunch. Loved the Sambhar here and their dosas

Sindhoor is an unsung gem of a pace for food. This is traditional Southern Indian Cuisine.They have a great offer on from Tuesday to Thursday which is a 3 course meal for £11.95. All three course were well cooked and for me the right amount of spice. Also they have vegan dishes which was good as it ment out friends could join usThe de our is a little dated but don't let that put you off from trying some great food.

So I was here a couple Sundays back with my family because we had heard a lot of good reviews about the food from our friends.

Booked a table for 6pm thinking we'd get in and out reasonably quickly...when we arrived it was reasonably quiet and we ordered drinks pretty quickly. However they took a while to arrive and the draught lager was flat. The starters were lovely and would recommend the Sindhoor Special Dhosa. The main courses were slow to arrive and when they did we had no plates or cutlery and had to wait for rice and naan. One of the dishes was cold and had to be reheated. The food was tasty but with one chap serving all the food and taking the orders service was very slow leading to the cold food. If they got the service sorted this could be a great curry experience!

I love Sindhoor, when I go out with a group of friends, this is always our first choice of destination. Staff are friendly, South Indian cuisine is fantastic. Fortunately, one of our group is from South India, so we have expert advice on what to order. We always start with Dhosa - and I can definitely recommend the Sindhoor Special. We have tried Idly and Vada which we have also enjoyed, and the coconut fried beef is divine. I always have to have kerala parota but after that, we just pick and choose from the menu. I can't wait for our next night out!!

The food was lovely, I always enjoy it here. But the service was really slow, they would have forgotten our started if we hadn't reminded them. I'd definitely recommend this restaurant but be prepared for slow service

Sad to give this review, as last year we ate here and it was wonderful. It’s South Indian, so no Balti’s, but was terrific for vegetarians.

Returned again to this restaurant, and the food is still excellent. We both ordered different prawn curries, which were gorgeous and both very different. The egg fried rice is amazing, bit expensive, but a meal in itself. They seemed to be short of staff, and as we hadn't ordered starters we had a long wait for the meal. The owner kindly gave us free drinks while we were waiting.

Been here a couple of times now and the food has been excellent both times. The service was a bit slow the first time I visited but was better on the second occasion. It's obvious that the food is very fresh and of very high quality so it's worth waiting for anyway! Will definitely be back again and would highly recommend to everyone.

Anyone wanting authentic Southern Indian food - Sindhoor is the place to go. The changed menu has moved further into authentic food. Having travelled in Southern Indian this food is great! Yes you can go to posher restaurants but you will struggle to find the range of tastes! The starter of beef with coconut flakes is a must!!

Rare to find Indians that do dosas and idly. Very pleasantly surprised by the food and choice. Spicy too

They will need a very good cleaning, you can notice from the entry, food is standard not amazing, overall i will not visit again

Visited tonight based on the reviews on Trip Advisor .

We found this restaurant through some mooching on TA. The food is outstanding, coming from a lover of Indian food, it's great. The reason for 3 stars is more about the empty restaurant at 8pm on a Saturday night, consequently no atmosphere and the toilets in need of a good clean & redecorating. It's a pity and feels like an opportunity missed. They do takeaway though and the phone rang throughout the evening so maybe that's how they survive.

Really nice authentic south indian food. Very different than many other places claiming to be South Indian Cuisine. All the dishes I have tried have been flavourful and really nice. Great portions. Get the garlic naan too. Nice relaxed atmosphere.

Visited with 7 friends and 4 who had not been to the restaurant before. The foid was great again. Between us as starters we had Lamb Chops, Prawn Dhosa and Chilli Paneer and all were excellent. For mains we had Chicken Chettinadu, Chicken Kuruma and Chilli Chicken (fusion dish). We all thought the meal was spot on and great value for money. The only issue was the service was slow as only one member of staff waiting on at 530pm so we waited for about 50 minutes for starters but it was certainly worth the wait. If you like Indian food visit this restaurant for something different and you'll probably ask yourself why you haven't been before.

I came here for the second time and was recommended the butter chicken masala with Kerala parotta. I have to say it was the best curry I have tasted and would highly recommend it.

Great place to have the most authentic Indian food in Whitefield. I recommend the masala dosa, which is served with coconut chutney. Even though the food arrived a bit late, it was definitely worth the wait!!

We visited on a Tuesday night and chose off the special menu, 3 courses for 11.95. Everything was lovely, generous portions and tasty. The chicken mappas

Went to meet a friend for a meal, the food was very nice and good portions. The waitress who was working tonight had no people skills, she was rude,didn't smile, and not very welcoming. Because of this I have rated this place a 3 a bit of a let down really as was really looking forward toIt.

I got a take away from here at the weekend and the cases were really really good. However, what spoiled it was the amount of salt used and the thinness of the sauce.

Having travelled to south India on many occasions, I can say with certainty that this is not authentic South Indian food. Parking close by is also a problem. Only their dosas are good, everything else was not.

Booked table for 8 o'clock shown to a table bit tight on space. Waited 15 minutes nobody came to table not even to ask for drink order. Left disgusted won'tbe returning.

Four of us visited this restaurant last night. I've been before, but it was a first for the other three. We arrived at different times and we kept adding to our order. However, nothing was a problem to the great staff and the food was excellent. Even the 'spicy' food was great as they appear to have perfected the art of creating the 'spiciness' by using herbs and spices and not just by throwing a load of chillies into the pan!! Each dish we ordered had its own unique taste. It makes a change to eat real Indian food and not just the cheap copies sold in many restaurants today which class themselves as "Indian", when they are clearly not.........

What an excellent find! This is a local restaurant to me but until recently I wasn't aware of it. Me and my partner visited on Thursday evening; we ordered the 3 course special. We both love Indian food but we had not experienced a menu like this before. The food was divine and we will be back. There were two people who were serving; they seemed incredibly busy, which did make us think about when we should order another drink/ask for the bill. However, they are currently advertising for waiting staff so I am sure this will improve. Also, busy staff just shows how popular the restaurant obviously is!

Both the exterior and interior suggest an average local Indian, but the food is anything but average - it's excellent. I've been to India quite a few times and the food at Sindhoor is authentic and highly recommended.

This has the best paneer I have ever tasted. And I have eaten alot of mutter paneer. And the disable was excellent. Well worth a visit.

Let's get one thing out of the way first: yes, the service is a little slower than you may expect. You may also want to book because the restaurant is small. But the best comes to those who wait. The food here is, quite simply, the best you will taste outside of South India itself and we say that as people who have eaten there. The menu is small and you can tell that everything is cooked from fresh. Having gone on the night of July 25 for my wife's birthday, we enjoyed our window seat and I loved hearing my wife praising the food which means she really enjoyed it. As a foodie, she can be critical but not here.So take the wait as part of the service and enjoy your whole experience. It gives you a nice rest between courses and you can get on with enjoying the company of the person or people you are with maybe? Surely you don't go to a restaurant for a quick in and out? There's a McDonald's for that.

I arrived at the restaurant on Thursday 20/7 at 5.35 and the restaurant was closed. Times displayed is 5pm open- very disappointing when there's 18 of us looking to eat. Won't be visiting here again! Complete waste of journey.

One of the best authentic Indian restaurants in North Manchester I've eaten in many a moon. Menu is very interesting and reassuringly small, as never trust places that do forty different dishes, less in more. Service could do with a bit more attention as you do have to wait a bit due to staffing levels it appears, but they're always pleasant and attentive.

This is our 4th time and it never disappoints. The menu is different from many curry houses, offering a more authentic Indian cuisine. They offer a great deal Tuesday-Thursday (3 course £11.95), great value for money yet the food/menu is not lacking or budget.The only failing this restaurant has is the lack of communication/social interaction. So the high score is solely based on their amazing food.

The food here is so very good, now I have found it I couldn't go anywhere else. Just discovered tattu dosa and they are amazing. So many favourites hard to choose. The fixed menu is great value but there are so many other things to try. Now a friend is in a wheelchair visiting is difficult but just found out they deliver so party tonight. Last week's visit was wonderful, ordering the same for delivery

The waiter showed his lack of experience and admitted he was new. He accidentally got two curries wrong so that a friend who requested a mild curry was given the extra hot one. The dish was removed from the bill and he was very apologetic but it wasn't a great experience. The menu itself is interesting, authentically South Indian cuisine and I enjoyed my meal. There aren't many tables so be sure to book in advance.

Being a South Indian restaurant the menu might be a little challenging at first sight but easily overcome. There is a wide choice of dosas which is rare in these parts and much to keep vegetarians happy. Generally the food is of high quality, portions a little on the small side but prices are very reasonable,

Very friendly and helpful staff took our order for a varied selection of starters (we cancelled main course as more than enough food !) we enjoyed all the starters which were excellent quality and full of flavour. Cant wait to eat again - they do a good mid week menu but we opted for a more varied selection from the a la carte.

Haven't been to the restaurant - only the takeaway from Deliveroo. Food was delicious but the portions are waaaay too small for the price. Way too expensive. Almost £8/£9 per dish and looked like it's only good for one person. Too overpriced what it's worth. I don't think I'll be ordering here again anytime soon.

Had a meal here with a colleague tonight who was blown away with his first taste of Southern Indian food. Very pleasant staff, the chap was fairly new to the restaurant so still had a little to learn about the menu but all is forgiven by the attentive service. On the food side, we really enjoyed it. The Masala Dosa just as it should be. My colleagues Vindaloo the best h has ever had. From the outside you might go for a fancier looking place but the food is what matters and this hits the spot. I'll be eating here next time I'm in the area.

Having noticed the restaurant offered a 3 course evening meal for £11-95 a head we decided to try and see what it was like The offer is only on Monday to Thursday evenings We arrived at about 6-30 to find the restaurant very quiet and had our choice of tables The 2 staff on duty were very helpful and we were very happy with the choice of food The starters were very tasty and the main courses likewise, due to the size of the portions we were too full to have a sweet By the time we left the restaurant there were quite a few people enjoying their mealsI would recommend this restaurant

We were the first in on Thursday evening, I found the gents a bit dirty, this is not a good sign for me. The chicken was tough and the beef gristly. The curry was not very nice and the chips were small and unappetising. Service ok. Venue was a bit cold, no ambience. The above is only my opinion but I shall not return.

Went on a whim after seeing the reviews. The food was amazing & tasty. I had fish & was cooked to perfection. My husband had lamb & couldn't fault it. Will definitely return. Jo & Al Heyworth

A hidden gem in Whitefield, you can eat in but generally take away. The menu is great with so many different options from the south. I really would recommended

Went Here Fri 03.03.17 with my WifeHad heard very good things before hand but was till very surprised how good it wasThe Pauppadums,Starters,Curries,Dosa and even the Chips were the best i have had in a Indian Restaurant There will be no more EastZEast or Moghul or Curry Cottage for us It will be Sindhoor every timeCannot wait to go Back

Very good food. Excellent dosa. Most of the staff are fabulous, just the odd hiccup occasionally, which is why I gave it 4 stars not 5. We eat here very 2-3 months and would recommend it.

What a little gem of a restaurant this is! Definitely not your run of the mill Indian. The staff couldn't do enough for us, gently letting us know we may have ordered too much (we had!) The prawn moily was delicately flavoured, and delicious! The dosas were new to me, so tasty, will definitely order those again! And all so reasonably priced. Thank you!

I visited with family earlier this week, three of whom ordered meat and fish dishes that were, by all accounts, excellent.As a vegetarian I opted for Matar Paneer and Dal Makhani, both of which were almost equivalent to the best I have tasted in Manchester (Sanskruti, Punjab, Jaipur Palace). It would be nice to see them make their own fresh paneer to take things up a notch.Good to see that the menu was not too expansive - I always worry when restaurants claim that their kitchens can make 60 plus dishes at any time. However, as a vegetarian, it would be good to see some more of the classic South Indian snacks/street foods that are on offer elsewhere, such as pani puri, paapri chaat, bhel puri etc.Good service from the young servers in a plain but pleasant environment.Nice to be able to get good South Indian grub up in Northern Manchester, rather than having to traipse down to Rusholme or Longsight - keep up the good work.

This gaff is spot on. Food & service top draw. Just spent a pleasant Wednesday evening with my family in this gem of a neighbourhood restaurant. 10/10.

I was very surprised by the quality of the food. The flavours in the curries were excellent. I have had a few South Indian curries in the U.K. and been to the area. I can honestly say that this was the best curry of that style I have had outside of India. It is important to say that this is very different style of curry from north India Bangladesh and Pakistan.

This is our second visit although this time we ate from the set menu of 3 courses for only £11.95. You get approx 4-5 choices on each course, with the choices different than usual Indian restaurants. We could not fault the food at all. We would definitely recommend this restaurant and cannot wait to revisit.

Secret Gem Find!We visited here on recommendation - and never looked back since. Since our first visit around 6 months ago we have been back at least 4 times. The food is fantastic - the taste, the freshness and the flavour. There is nothing to fault with the food in this restaurant. And the variety of choice is great - the midweek offer is great and not to be missed. Due to not many people knowing about this place - sometimes the restaurant can lack atmosphere. The front of house service should be improved - and the service isn't ever above and beyond which is a shame because this could make this place incredible!

Wouldn't usually write a review when we had such slow service but the food at this place was amazing so different, so much flavour well worth a visit if you don't want to go to the usual curry houses this place is authentic .

It isn't often I would praise somewhere with such slow service.This place is a hidden gem, the menu isn't your usually korma, rogan josh or madras type of place. It's something a little more special, it's South Indian food at its best! With the choice of dishes on the small side you know you're getting a gravy with depth and flavour. I have a problem when you go for Indian food and they have around 50different main courses. Each description sounds the same and they all usually end up tasting the same. At Sindhoor this isn't the case, there's a definition between each dish, you can taste the different flavours and spices. Even the tandoori half chicken is one of the best I've tried, cooked to perfection. I recommend the butter chicken, masala dosa, tandoori chicken, chicken chilli dry. You won't be disappointed with your visit. Just make sure you're not in a rush!

Very different cuisine to your standard Indian takeaways. Extremely tasty and some of the dishes quite spicy. Would definitely order again and try and visit the restaurant asap.

The decor lets the place down and the server was run of her poor feet, however the food was exceptional real taste of South India! We would defiantly recommend!

Sindhoor provides excellent and authentic Indian cuisine.. I think it's family run and the staff are always very friendly but never in your face.Their food is always top notch and their pancake dishes are superb.. on the whole the food is always of great quality and at a good price.. It's all about the food here, no gimmicks or bright neon lights.. just food.

My partner and I are both Indian food snobs and were delighted to find a sleepy suburb in north Manchester hosting a south Indian restaurant. The food was superb, especially the Gobi Manchuria (Dry). For mains we had a Masala Dosa and and Cheese + Onion dosa, with a side serving of idlis. All came with sambar was was delightful. Including pappadums as a "pre-starter" but excluding drinks, the price was £25 for the two of us.At present, the restaurant is a little short-staffed (there was a "Help Wanted" sign in the window) but the quality of the staff could not be faulted.

Best Kerala food in Manchester area Sindhoor and Thaali Restaurant. Friendly service and incredible food. If you like Indian food. You must try this place.

We've been here a few times but this was probably the best. Everything was spot on from the starters to the mains. Service was also great too. Best curry house in Whitefield in my opinion and I think lots of people are missing out as they don't realise. We had Punjabi Samosas which were a total change to the triangular greasy types most restaurants serve up. They almost seemed to be oven baked with an amazing potatoe and pea filling. The Mysore Lamb Chops starter were also very tender and tasty. The 2 curries we had were King Prawn Moilly and Paneer Mutter again both fantastic with a really fresh spice taste. Even the Naan bread was so different to what we're used to, it was so light and soft. Keep up the great work. My only suggestion for improvement is that a lick of paint in the restaurant and upstairs could improve the experience. As for the food it was the best we've had for a long while. If you've never been, try it out!

This place is great. Small quiet little restaurant with amazing food. A great selection of dishes and sides. Very nice to have south Indian dishes as there are not many restaurants like this around. The service was decent and the environment was pleasant.

We came here on a Saturday evening, booked only a few hours prior for a 7pm seating, so were fortunate to get a table.Starters and drinks ordered fine, by the time we had finished starters, our main meal orders had still not been taken. We waited patiently as the restaurant was fairly busy. On our third request for someone to take our main meal orders, they were finally taken. Again at the end of the meal we had to ask for the bill as no one had asked if the food was fine etc etc.The service was poor to non existent, however, not sure if this was due to a staff shortage at short notice or other issues as this was our first time dining here. It's a real shame.The food on the other hand was excellent! We could not fault it! It was absolutely delicious, well seasoned and tasty, top marks to the chef! We will most certainly return to the restaurant for the food but will book early! We do enjoy a leisurely dinner but this was really too long.Unfortunately due to the poor service we could not justify leaving a tip, except to say, They really do need extra waiting staff!Don't let the service put you off! The food is really very good, just be prepared to wait!

Best curry house in North Manchester by a long way. They do a fantastic smokey flavored Curry. Good value great service

I came to this restaurant with my family and booked a table for 5 for 6:30pm on a saturday evening. The lady at the restaurant looked confused and told us to wait. We were not greeted, and she looked surprised once we entered. This gave me and my family a bad impression from the start. She brought another member of staff, who also seemed confused and mentioned that the restaurant was fully booked from 7:00pm. From saying that, we were not provided with , so we decided to leave. I have to admit, I have never come across a restaurant, so poorly organised and with staff who seemed rude and unprofessional.

Simply brilliant food. Not your usual ten a penny curry house but layers of flavour in a range of excellent dishes. I have been more than 20 times, tried so many of the dishes none of which has disappointed. Very highly recommended.

having been to Goa many times I have not found many Indian restaurants in the UK that can produce the types of meals that I fully enjoyed in Goa. -the Sindhoor does -I was delighted to find that this restaurant does know its food and spices and can produce brilliant real south Indian meals that are full of flavour and well presented, (and definitely non greasy), I would highly recommend it -very different food to what many may be used to at their local Indian restaurant - I do not believe that anyone could be less than happy with the meals here. The staff were lovely, friendly and helpful- thank you - we will definitely be coming again.

Had ordered takeway meal, food was average compared to what I have had in few other places. Had chilli panneer, the paneer was hard and the sause was too tangy. The mix vegetable kurma was more of a aloo(potato) kurma. There was no other vegetables in it. Paneer mutter masala was the only thing which I had with no complaints. The quantity is also very less, I had 4 - 5 paneer in chilli paneer dish.

New manager, back to great service and the usual freshly prepared food. So glad that we arrived early, as the place soon filled up and were turning people away. Food is made to order, so can easily be adjusted to required taste, strength. I would definitely recommend this fast becoming popular restaurant, but would also recommend booking to ensure a table.

Beautifully prepared and cooked food full of flavour. I love the fact that there is a variety of non meat options. Highly recommended. Wille going again with family on Saturday

This is the first time I had been to this restaurant, had read reviews beforehand. Reviews were that the food was great and service not so great due to a new manager.I completely agree with these reviews, I have never been to South Indian restaurant before and absolutely loved the food, it was amazing, the chef is very talented.The service however was not so great. We waited for ages even for our drinks order which was very slow. The long wait between our starter and our main was longer than average but gave us chance to settle and allowed us to comfortably eat our main course without being too stuffed.We must have been in the restaurant for 3 hours with a starter and a main course If you were to visit this restaurant then you will love the food but please be patient regarding the wait and slow service.

Ordered from here friday night, despite a limited version of their menu being on deliveroo my boyfriend and i both loved the dishes we ordered. i had butter chicken massala and he had something which resembled a korma. I would definitely recommend.

this is our favourite go to restaurant,the food is the best indian food outside of kerala.we eat here at least once a month and have eaten every dish an have never been dissapointed.BUT !!!!!!! the new lebanese manager has not got a clue and needs to be replaced very quickley before it effects the business.he does not know how to serve wine,a lager and lime was served a pint of lager with a large lump of lime floating on the top, he hovered over us before we had finished the starters,tried to serve us our mains without plates, he has clearly never worked in the trade before..so this is for the sindhoor owner PLEASE get a new manager soon,,

Really disappointing experience here last night. Living in the local area, we are regulars to Sindhoor and the food is the best Indian food I have ever had; can never fault it whether its been a takeaway or eating in. We had some family visiting last night so decided to take them there and unfortunately we ended up walking out and going elsewhere after being totally forgotten about it seems. We arrived at 8 ish, and chose our own table. We didnt get given any menus, and had to actually go up and get them ourselves - the table next to us joked and asked if we could take their order for them as it appeared they had also been forgotten about and were sat with no drinks still and menus closed. Eventually someone came to take a drinks order (about 8.20pm) and by 8.40, we had no drinks, no food order taken and we could see no one behind the bar doing anything. We asked another table how long they'd been waiting and they said they were waiting on starters which were well overdue. We ended up leaving and told the waiter it was unacceptable to have to wait that long just for a drink, and he didnt try to stop us leaving. Really disappointing. I hope the service is addressed as its really damaging such a great restaurant.

I have been to this restaurant several times and about time I wrote a review 1. Food - a good selection of classic south indian food including dosas, idilys, vada samba ect. I had the samba vada as a side. The samba was very well balanced and vada tasty but would prefer on the side as like it crispy (personal preference). For the main I had there special dosa which was excellently spice but with bags of flavour. I would personally prefer the traditional crispy dosas as this was more pancake consistency. They have a decent selection of traditional dosas but fancied something different. I will just note my wife had had an eggplant dish which was sensational with smoky undertones from roasting the coconut. one of the best dishes I have tasted in some time.2. Value - very reasonable for the level of quality 3. Service - very friendly 4. Atmosphere - a little dull as the restaurant has very basic fit out and nut much buzz. Great if u fancied a chilled one and good chat . Will definitely be back for the food.

As this is South Indian origin....this is slightly different to your common standard Indian food which is all designed for the English pallet....The food is exceptionally fresh and very tasty.....and I love it....a lot.If you want speedy service this isn't for you - but it all makes for a full, relaxing evening.

We tried this restaurant for the first time, having never had South Indian food before. The food was very good and very tasty. We tried a few things we had never heard of, all were delicious. The staff are very friendly, though the service was a little slap dash at times. Would definitely go again if in the area. Yummy..

Absolutely fantastic South Indian food. Kudos for staying true to the roots! Friendly staff and excellent service.

This small restaurant is so good that we eat their food once a week, sometimes as a takeaway, sometimes in the restaurant. The food is different from other Indian restaurants and has so much flavour. I highly recommend it. Don't look for the standard dishes on every other menu around. Their versions of the classics are far superior but there are things that are so different that they must be tried.
