“ We visited Shere Khan's just over an hour ago and was very impressed with the service , atmosphere and food. Upon arriving we were immediately greeted by the lovely host, Abid, who ensured we didn't wait and delivered the most amazing customer service. He was very attentive and friendly which is a rarity nowadays. We ordered the grilled tikka starter, butter chicken and naan and absolutely loved the food- which was cooked to perfection After finishing the meal we used the toilets which were also very clean. From start to finish it was a lovely experience and we were very impressed with the service received as we had travelled from Birmingham and were looking for some delicious food to end the day. Thank you ! ”
“ Honestly don’t know where these bad reviews are coming from! My boyfriend and I (gay couple) were greeted with respect and a smile, seated with chairs pulled out, referred to as sir, served drinks instantly, were attended to & waited on perfectly, the food was delicious (2x chicken tikka masala, keema naan, pilau rice), and even though it was very spicy for my boyfriend (2/3 chilli rating), he still thoroughly enjoyed it. With 2 drinks and poppadom starter as well, 42 in total was decent value for money! Would recommend and revisit for sure, thank you!! ”
“ A very vibrant place to come dine. Clean tables and chairs, friendly staff and amazing food. Food prices are reasonable for the portions provided. ”
“ Visited 19/03/2022, good size enclosed waiting area (heated) as you go through first set of doors, seen to very quickly and for a Friday night and restaurant being busy only took 5minutes to be taken through next set of doors into the main dining area and seated for a table of 4. The service was attentive and food came at a decent pace considering how busy the establishment was. I would say that the mix grill sizzler was pricey in comparison to other places and don’t get as much as you would portion was , perhaps for the same price and for value offering a version for 2 people similar to what you would find as meat platters elsewhere. The friends stated that their lamb and vegetarian saag paneer dish was good and that the naan and rice were tasty. The menu is limited but the food is tasty so worth a visit if your in the Rusholme area and fancy a venue for the nostalgia of one of the ongoing originals of the infamous curry mile. ”
“ So far best Indian/Pakistani cuisine on wilmslow road. The restaurant is excellent from all perspectives. Food, taste, quality, cleanliness, hospitality and staff. My family wants to visit here again. Full marks. ”
“ Fantastic food and service. Definitely one of the best Asian food places I've been to. Tried quite a few different dishes and liked all of them. Service was also good, friendly staff. ”
“ Brilliant food lovely staff very nice fast service, I've never been to Manchester indian restaurants before. My son calls it curry mile lots of restaurants on one street. Parking areas behind most restaurants just be careful of beggars approaching you in the car parks was a little intimidating such a different world behind the scenes. Had a fantastic evening. ”
“ It must be now thirty years or so that I have been patronizing this establishment and it never ceases to impress. The food is sublime and that is the main attraction. The service is attentive and warm and friendly from the bosses down to the waiting staff. Iconic dining, as usual!! ”
