Sanskruti - Carta

The food is awesome especially the vegetarian seekh kebabs as starter. The main meal Karella with stuffed pharatas and masala tea. I was very impressed with the food and the service. I shall be going again.

We went for a family meal to celebrate a birthday. I took a cake which they graciously brought out after our meal. I am gujerati myself and the food was both delicious and plentiful. Service was kind and not imposing. Reasonably priced too. We will be back!

Stale pani puri, server who acted like she didn't want to be there (service automatically included in bill, we didn't want the confrontation of asking for it to be taken off), dosas were greasy, curries were no different to your average takeaway. Fine if you are stuck in the area, but I wouldn't return. Ver carta

Came here for the first time quite a few years back and wasn't the best but since it's been done up I've been twice with my family. First time was perfect, food was hot, served quickly and fresh. Second time round, although food was tasty, the service was slightly slower but we'd definitely keep returning.

We wanted to find a vegan Indian restaurant in Manchester and my son had Sanskruti recommended, we booked around lunchtime for that evening. I was so glad we did as it was full when we arrived, what a great bustling atmosphere met us when we walked through the door, then came the menu, all veggie vegan or gluten free almost all the courses were vegan or could be made vegan so we were delighted with the choice. I had tofu Makhanwala (spelling? my wife had the black dhal and my son chose the masala dosa add to that a family garlic naan rice. Everything was super tasty, service very good. Recommended for vegans, veggies but in fact all humans :

We like eating at this vegetarian (and vegan) Indian restaurant. There’s always a range of dishes that you are not going to find elsewhere in the area. And a firm favourite is not a single dish but the thalis that are only on offer on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. A complete meal, from starters through to dessert, served in small metal dishes, on a metal tray, which works as your plate. We don’t order it every visit, so don’t get bored with the fact the dishes don’t change So, to start, there was a deep fried ball of battered mashed potato (bateta vada) and a bhaji, mainly onion but deeply coloured with perhaps beetroot. They go well with the little dishes of raita and chopped salad. Movin... Ver carta

„We do not serve customers with any allergies“ is stated on the cover of the current menu. We used to eat here a lot, so we were taken aback by the sour-faced two men who lacked any hint of customer service skills or even an attempt to smile. Having been seated without a word, we then saw the allergies policy on the new version of the menu. The initial temptation was to ask whether my allergy to tree pollen will now get me kicked out but seemed too risky given the servers’ general contempt for their customers. So we decided that it was too much hassle to drive elsewhere during Rushhour to get some food, and ordered what we always do, hoping that they hadn’t started putting nuts into the dish...

It’s a few months since we last ate here. It’s one of a handful of South Asian restaurants in the area that has an entirely plant=based menu, so makes a nice change for we two omnivores. Finger food to start for both of us. There’s half a dozen sev puri. Open wide and it’s just about a single bite puri filled with veg and a tangy chutney, then topped with a sprinkling of crunchy sev. There’s also mixed vegetable pakoras. That’s the North Indian name but I suspect most folk, us included, would better know them as bhajis. Shredded veg, tossed in gram flour and fried till crisp. And there’s a coriander sauce for dunking. Really nice. Both main courses came from the Punjabi section of the menu....

In recent days, it’s been reported that India is likely to become the world’s most populous country within a few years. It reminds you just how diverse the country is in its food – affected both by geography and culture. And Sanskruti (the word translates from Hindi as “culture” sets out to offer a diverse menu of traditional vegetarian and vegan dishes. We are omnivores, regularly eating vegetarian food and it’s always a pleasure to come here because the menu has dishes that you are not going to see on the menus of the Anglicised high street curry houses. That said, there’s an increase in local places serving Mumbai street food dishes, so samosa chaat is something we’ve eaten before and we... Ver carta
