Excellent starters with lots of varieties and I didnt waste any.Mains were good with great choices and much better than the London Royal Nawabs however Im not used to the Pakistani flavours as Im used to the Bangladeshi flavour and that is why Im giving 4 stars instead of 5.Great parking and prayer facilities πŸ‘πŸ½Did have to wait 1.5 hours on a Sun evening during the summer holidays but was expecting this from feedback from others.

Amazing food & good covid19 safety measures! I went here with my family and the starters were absolutely amazing! They also have a prayer room & they even have a wedding hall! The Chops were Great. Very Clean & Big restaurant, even the Toilets were clean. Buffet Costs Β£20 if your over 10 I think

Manchesters biggest Indian food buffet.Top quality Indian food where you can have a bit of everything.Really nice food! drinks are a little on the pricey side hydrate well before going :)By the way alcohol however is not served here nor are you permitted to bring your own.The food really us worth it though.

Came yesterday evening, the food was average some of the items were worth giving 5 stars. The service could be improved, had to ask for cutleries and napkins rather then being presented with it before sitting down. Was harassed several times even after showing my exemption card of why I ain’t wearing a mask and that they were telling me apparently the law states I need to wear exemptions card as a badge which was false information. I would only go to this place if it’s your only option.

Went here on a Sunday afternoon which was a lot better as it wasnt too busy so we didnt have to wait for a table. The food was delicious and fresh however the service and some of the staff were really disappointing. Some of the staff were quite rude and just ignored us completely when we were asking for assistance. Its such a shame and has put me off returning again anytime soon.

This place, I feel is going down hill. It used to be a very nice place to take your family. Not anymore. Firstly, I asked for a highchair for my child and they took ages to bring one out. When they did it was broken so we asked for another one. It never came. We had to take turns to get food and watch our daughter. Alot of staff but they are standing around doing nothing. Starters and mains were good. When we got to the dessert stand the staff serving were rude to my wife, ignored her when she asked a question. Other places offer same food for less money and better service. Dont think we will be going back.

Regrettably from the attempt to park here it was a shambles. More so as I was with a disabled passenger all the allocated disabled spots were occupied by vehicles without a disabled badge.Furthermore the road leading to their car park is consumed by vehicles on both sides as well as on their front pavement making navigating with a wheelchair extremely difficult. Speaking to their parking attendants they simply shrugged their shoulders and the manager in reception wasnt interested in listening to my complaint.I felt let down by the whole inadequate parking experience which is clearly a huge burden on the local area as they simply dont have enough parking for the sheer volume of customers.The whole experience was a lesson for us to just avoid places like this, plenty of similar restaurants for us to enjoy without the stress of parking.

Review β„–14

A real mixed bag. The entrance is rather nice and so is the main eating area. Otherwise, it’s a standard fare buffet place. It’s pricey for what it is and the drinks aren’t included. The staff aren’t rude, just disengaged.The food range is vast, but it’s average. Buffet places serve a purpose and this is no different.The bathrooms are filthy and the car park tight; with the attendant not serving any purpose.

Visited, Manchester branch. Wasnt surprised rather little disappointment. Lot of starter varieties, but none impressed. Main dish and curries are awesome. Again desert side average. Cant be rate low, since few dishes were awesome. Service needs to be improved. Not having mind to another visit or recommendation for buffet.

August 2021 I arranged my brother Valima at Nawaab. It was for 150 people, The Persian suite. Attentive to details on the day was such what I expected from Nawaab, it was perfect. From decoration food and service from the lovely staff. (We had additional special arrangements for some guests.) But the staff made sure the instruction were listened to without me having to go back. This gave me peace of mind on the day.Dani Malik, the events manager who was looking after our event was excellent! He followed-up with me throughout the event to make sure all was okay.Although I have been to many weddings at Nawaabs, this was truly special one for me!Thank you Nawaab Manchester for making it a day for me!

Review β„–38

Myself and my family came here this evening as we have always thoroughly enjoyed the food and have never had a problem before. This evening has put me off ever coming back. I was told at the door to put a mask on, to which I responded that I am exempt. I was told by the man at the door that β€˜ this is private property, you must wear a mask’ after I showed him the relevant information on the GOV website which clearly states it is not a legal requirement to prove you are exempt. Once inside I was then asked by a further 3 individuals to put a mask on, then asked for a exemption card as proof. Once at my table we were watched by numerous staff members and made to feel very uncomfortable. Every single time I got up to get myself food or for my son, I was asked repeatedly by numerous staff over and over again to wear a mask, and again asked if I can prove my exemption. I witnessed over 6 different staff members wearing their masks under their noses, which is incorrect and is a clear contradiction of their own β€˜rules’. I barely ate any food as I felt so uncomfortable and just wanted to leave. We spoke to the manager before we left who was completely rude and dismissive regarding our upset and had absolutely no understanding of the the fact that nobody has the legal right to question another person regarding their disability, hidden or not. The manager clearly just wanted us to pay and leave rather than being apologetic over the way his customers were treated. Nor did he seem concerned that his staff were not wearing their masks correctly ,yet making me feel uncomfortable not wearing mine. I am left feeling absolutely disgusted by this whole experience and will be advising anyone I know who is exempt from wearing a face mask to stay clear of this place and it’s blatant discrimination.

Went to nawabs 28th September in Manchester, food was spot on as per usual, but the customer service was absolutely disgusting. I’m actually very shocked at how we was treated. Where do i start, I walked into the restaurant with my mrs and her mum, baring in mind they are both white women and I’m an Asian man. We were greeted by a male Asian member of staff who was on front of house in the lobby and straight away he started speaking Urdu to me and not acknowledging that I’m with 2 other people and it was so rude as he completely ignored them both. Then we were seated on table 10 and the waiters were even worse. My mrs kept getting stared at by 2 of the waiters and they were ear wigging our conversation and decided to but in and join the convo, again very rude. We all felt so uncomfortable and extremely shocked, we didn’t even eat properly and was put off by all the staff, because we kept getting stared at. I spoke to a manager near the bar and he apologised and asked if we wanted to move but we were already leaving because we didn’t want to stay. on top of all that, the waiting staff for our table kept coming over asking to clear our table more often that they were clearing all the other tables as if they were rushing us to leave. service was shocking will not be coming back here and I’m very gutted after years of good service from the restaurant and excellent food.

Review β„–50

DISGUSTED. To begin with I wasnt informed that I would not be receiving table service and the actual menu even though i called up multiple times regarding my booking. Whoever I spoke on the phone to had no customer service skills. To make it worse I was subjected to an uncomfortable environment due to the way I looked and it has nothing to do with anyone there how I look or what I wear. The staff even made me feel uncomfortable and to be honest I just wanted to leave and I felt so bad for my partner but in that type of atmosphere I had every right to feel very annoyed. The food was just average definitely not worth the price and definitely will not be going back and was definitely not what I expect or seen online. Work on your customer service skills, table setting skills and basic respect please so others are not subjected to this experience.

Just ordered through uber. We fancied trying a new place and was not disappointed. The food was lovely. The portion sizes were big for the price. Onion pakora and the meat samosas are unreal also the chicken melted in your mouth. The only issue is that it was warm and not hot. We will definitely be ordering again and also coming to visit you soon.

The cuisine is of Bangladesh /Pakistan /Indian style. The staff are very friendly and helpful and give you excellent service. Food is buffet style and drink is served to your table. If you have never been then this will be a totally new experience. The food on the buffet is varied beyond belief, from salad and traditional starters that you would expect, then onto the main courses of traditional dishes to more speciality dishes that you maybe have not heard of before and followed by ice cream or traditional Indian /Bangladesh style dessert. If you are not into curries or have unadventurous children with you then there is an excellent selection of western styles including chips, pizza, pasta, fish bites and sweet and sour chicken. The restaurant is in an old cinema /dance hall and at any one sitting can hold over 200 people. At busy times expect up to an hour to wait for a table, but its worth the wait. Remember that the restaurant is alcohol free due to religious reasons so please respect this, although being a lot of spicy food I recommend a litre carafe of the delicious mango lassi! There is tons of parking at the rear of the building. Booking ahead is not allowed unless you have a party of 15 or more (best to give them at least one day notice). There is disabled access although remember that this is a buffet and therefore may not be as suitable for wheelchairs. There are plenty of choice for vegetarians. If you have never been I dont think you ever experience a dining experience like quite like this restaurant. Is this place popular? You bet it is! Enjoy by many of the locals who return time after time.
