Service throughout the meal was excellent, with our waiter Marius always on-hand to help when needed. Sadly, the main menu does not list anything vegan, although staff did say a separate vegan menu was available. Luckily staff where on-hand to help make sense of it all.įor those following a veggie diet, the menu is well stocked with options across the range. Whilst the menu is beautifully designed, the newspaper styling certainly isn’t the clearest menu to work out. Once sat down we were given the menu and some time to choose our dishes.
With its loving take on the Irani cafe culture of Mumbai, it’s little touches such as the burning incest as you walk through, the rotating ceiling fans and marble tables that really sell the experience.
No Dishoom is a little different the really makes the most of the building. Even on a quiet day between Christmas and New Year when most places in town are relatively quiet, the place is packed, with only two tables left when we arrive.Īs soon as you walk through the door it’s obvious this isn’t just another cookie clutter ‘industrial chic’ room with exposed brickwork and minimal lighting. Luckily, Dishoom hasn’t had any issues in getting the message out there with queues during the opening weekend and throughout the Christmas period. A small sign outside is the only real clue to what awaits you inside, making it very easy to walk past without knowing it was ever there. After the Christmas rush was over I couldn’t’ wait any longer to try it out.ĭishoom is situated in Manchester Hall, a historic building more known for staging weddings and conferences than the latest foodie experience.
Is it worth the hype?Īnticipation went up a notch for me when I got copies of the Good Food Guide and Where Chefs Eat (thank you SDW), both of which hold Dishoom in high regard. I’ve been wanting to go since opening day but decided to skip the opening weekend queues and go this week instead. Much hyped since announced earlier in the year, Dishoom has been arguably the biggest restaurant launch in Manchester this year.
