The Original Third Eye

very nicely visited on a Friday night, not booked. friendly greeting, immediately sitting, service great, eating exceptional and price very reasonable. our first time, but it won't be the last!

absolutely fantastic as always. the food was excellent and the staff is so beautiful. recommend the wiper chili, makhan chara, peshwari nan and in any case the sweets. but honest. I didn't have a court I didn't like, and I'm going all the time!

A great little local Indian restaurant set in Didsbury, great food and really friendly staff. The food is a lot less oily than a lot of other Indian restaurants around and they offer a variety of dishes other than the normal main-stream Indian dishes which you find in every other restaurant.

Forget the curry mile, this is the best indian in Manchester. It 's been open for a few years, and has served excellent food every time I 've been in. It 's nicely and simply decorated, with a good wine list. Yes, you can get a typical 'english ' curry, but there 's some dishes you won 't have on a usual indian menu. Tandoori fish as a starter is just the right size, flaky and flavoursome. The minced chicken and lamb dishes are interesting and moreish. I 'd highly recommend this place, and it won 't set you back too much.

After my first try a takeaway I can say that I 'm not massively impressed. I ordered from the 'house specials ' list as I usually find that 's a good place to start. The service when I ordered: great, asked to take a seat, offered a drink. Completely happy here. The food: popadoms were a bit different and nice. The naan seemed a bit 're heated '. The curry was ok, not really special at all and the sauce seemed rather bland. Would I go back: probably not for a takeaway. I might give the restaurant a go sometime to see if that 's a different experience. Overall, great service but food average in my opinion.

I got very excited by the fact that I finally found a Nepalese restaurant in Manchester and hence made my friend drive down to Didsbury with me. I was extremely excited till I saw the menu and realized that there were absolutely no authentic Nepalese dishes in the menu (I am not surprised because most Indian restaurants tend to disappoint in UK). I never understand the need to anglosize a dish in UK, because when I make authentic Indian food at home everyone says its much better or different from what they have tasted in restaurants here! My verdict: Good Generous Portions The kulfi (dessert) is near about authentic Great Chicken Tandoori Doesn't pinch your pocket Bad Not any authentic Nepal... View menu

This is definitely one of my favourite places to go for a curry in Manchester, so much nicer than any of the food you would find in rusholme in my opinion. The style is nepalese so you will find some different dishes on the menu compared to the standard curry house selling kormas to vindaloos. All the food appears to be cooked fairly freshly, with peppers found within the sauces still having crunch to them, and onions still looking fresh. I fully recommend the Lamb Karahi dish, and the Muttar Paneer is an awesome vegetarian dish, oh and the poppadoms are fantastic with spices cooked through them with lovely dips to go with them. Beer prices are reasonable, although higher in cost than a pub,...

It's very easy to walk straight past Original Third Eye without noticing it, its simple signage completely dominated by the garish blue livery of the O'Neills pub next door. Inside, it's quite a compact restaurant with several tables packed into a small area as such I wouldn't recommend it for big parties (try the Sangam 2 down the road) but for groups of four or less, it's a nice place for a quiet meal. When my girlfriend and I visited, we had the standard poppadoms and dips followed by chicken tikka for starter, then followed by a rogan josh for me and a zhalfrezi for her. The food was full of flavour although curry connoisseurs may have found the dishes a little lacking in heat one of the...

A recent discovery for me is this beautiful Indian restaurant, which I rank up there with the best in Manchester, situated in the heart of Didsbury Village. Curries are without doubt my favourite food, so I've had a good few and since working for Yelp I have set myself the task of really locating the finest curry houses in Manchester. The Original Third Eye fully deserves to enter in at the top, alongside my other favourites, Punjab in Rusholme, Moon in Withington, and The Original Lal Qila on Deansgate. See my list for the run down. The name Original Third Eye comes from one of the finest restaurants in Kathmandu, though it is also a reference to the concept of the all Seeing Eye, a central...
