Update: we've since gone back and tried a butter chicken along with a platter for 2. The butter chicken was delicious, the chicken looks the same as the chicken in the platter (red colour and large chunks). The naan was a lot better this time, not overly sweet but still flavourful. Perfect!TLDR; Tasty and affordable!This restaurant is definitely a hidden gem! We tried chicken biryani, platter for 2, and a palaak paneer.The chicken biryani was packed full and super spicy, the chicken was cooked to perfection. There was a lot of sauce that settled to the bottom, which I hadn't experienced elsewhere. The palaak paneer was very sweet, and the paneer was a tad crumbly. The platter was amazing, the chicken pieces were moist and flavourful. The naan was quite different from what I'm used to, as it had some sweetness to it like raisin flavour, but I'm not sure.Everything is priced very reasonably, even with the rising cost of ingredients after covid. The platter was definitely my favourite and we will be back for it again!
Food is amazing. I tried the Tandoori Tikka Wrap and Butterchicken, they were both delicious. Butterchicken tastes amazing with garlic naan. I will definitely be eating again from this restaurant.
Tasty food but please keep your time promised for pick up. Ordered 2 items and he promise was 45 minutes but needed up waiting another 30 mins. The guy told me few mins and all along while waiting same story to everyone who came for pick up.Anyone ordering, please order way ahead and they are really slow especially on weekends.
Mana Salwa is a hidden gem in Pickering! Not a fancy outlet, but the food is fantastic and so is the customer service - and what matters. Food is always fresh and the price and the quantity are just perfect. The butter chicken is one of the best I've had in GTA. The Chicken Biryani is unique and has a nice spice to it! And not to forget they are open to make adjust spice and oil levels. We've tried a few things and are going about ordering and trying everything one by one on the menu! It is always a pleasure to pick up food as you feel welcomed and promptly attended to.
Their Channa chaat papri is amazing and the samosas are fried fresh. Daniyal is amazing.
We did takeout for samosas, Kashmiri chai and Mithai. The samosas were fried freshly and flavourful great spice and they give good sauces. Kashmiri chai was also great piping hot really recommend. We came back the next day for the same order. Don’t get the Mithai was really bad not fresh at all (kalakand, pista burfi and plain burfi).
Prices are very reasonable and food quality and taste is good. A typical mom n pop desi restaurant, they carry good variety of items including breakfast and mithaie( indian dessert).
We were in the area and devices to try those place. Customer service was excellent. We ordered the chana bathura, chicken biryani, and the veggie samosas. Everything was good quality, generous portions, full of flavour. The chana bathura was one of the best I've tried and served fresh!
I ordered a chicken tikka masala, butter chicken and boneless chicken biryani with the butter naan.The food was very flavorful and the portions were very generous. My one small complaint was that the curries did have a little too much oil. The naan was soft and flavorful.Overall, it was a very positive experience. I will definitely be coming back to this place to try out their other dishes.
Fantastic restaurant for take-out. Friendly service, delicious authentic food, large portions. A must try! Loved the sweet lassi. We will definitely be repeat customers!!!
