4 of us went to Amma’s Canteen for the first time on Friday evening and we all really enjoyed the food. The vegan tofu and the ocra curry were particularly nice. I’m pretty sure we’ll be going again O)

Amma's Restaurant is definitely a place worth visiting if you're in the area. I recently tried some of their menu items and was pleased with the overall experience. The masala vadai was average, but the chicken 65 was absolutely amazing. The lamb biryani was also really excellent, although it's worth noting that it's not a dum biryani. The chicken ghassi had great flavor, and I couldn't get enough of the Malabar porathas - they were really good, and my son loved them too. Finally, the masala dosa was very crispy and tasty. Overall, my only complaint would be that the portions were quite small and the prices were a bit high. However, the high quality of the food made up for this, and I would recommend giving Amma's Restaurant a try if you are in the mood for some great Indian cuisine.

Solid, authentic South Indian food. We had the Dosa, Chicken 65 and Allephey Fish Curry. The fish was slightly too fishy for me but that might be a personal preference.

Lovely, good quality food. Excellent, friendly service. We have eaten in and taken out and would recommend both options. Amma's Canteen has real character. The owners appear to really care about the food, which is based on the home cooked food eaten in Southern India and this is obvious when you taste it. Highly recommended.

Finally, I got the perfect chicken 65 (like India) in Manchester. The staff is quite friendly and the food was just amazing. The chicken 65 and beef sukha is highly recommended to anyone visiting for the Time.
