Been coming here since it opened and having been brought up on Indian food since being about 2 years old and probably eaten in every Indian in Rusholme and loads around the world (literally) Yasin Ali has got every box ticked in this amazing place, from the location, decor, staff and the food is absolutely incredible!!! I even asked him why does his food taste so much better, tastier and fresher than any other Indian I've ever eaten in and he said 2 words "premium produce" and you can really tell!!! Even the cost is awesome!!! We both had 2 courses and a few sides, few alcoholic drinks and a few soft drinks and it was less than £60 with a tip and the bill came with complimentary liquors, a rose for my wife and even a £5 voucher for next time we go!!!! Honestly the BEST Indian I've ever been to!!!! Thanks to the whole team at Anar Kali �
We went here for my partners 50th (27 Jan 18) there where lots of other large parties there too.
Considering this, the service was amazing and nothing was too much trouble.
The food was outstanding as were the staff.
Highly recommend this place. One of the better restaurants I've been in a long time.
Thank you.

I’ve always enjoyed the food and service at this restaurant and on New Year’s Eve it was no exception.
We went with friends and had a fantastic night. It was a set menu for £25 per person, the choice for each course was extensive, the food was plentiful (far more than we could eat) and as always very tasty. At 12pm each table was given a bottle of prosecco.
In addition to a great meal there was a DJ, everyone got up dancing, some people sang, others performed their own ‘party piece’, it was a great atmosphere and an absolute bargain NYE out!
Great atmosphere staff are very polite and helpful. Food, well best curry I've had in a long time. There was 20 of us celebrating two 70th birthdays, one of which was from South Africa and he said it was one of the best he'd had.
Top marks
Been looking forward to eating here for quite a while now and it’s safe to say I will be going back.
Chicken shashlik is my go-to meal with Indian food and This was by far the best shashlik ive ever had.
Service was fantastic too. All members of staff were very welcoming and friendly.
Thanks for a great night
First visit last night and definitely won't be my last. Amazing food, efficient staff and would highly recommend this place to visit.

I visit here nearly every Thursday night great service fantastic food best Indian by far you 've tried the rest now try the best xxx
Possibly the best I have ever been to. The food was so fresh and the staff couldn't do enough. Will definitely become a regular.
We've visited here many times and we called last night for a meal for mothers day and my birthday and wasn't sure if we would get seated because we hadn't booked. We were lead to a table straight away with no problems. Quick service, friendly staff, food is amazing. Highly recommend this place!
Had the most amazing meal yesterday by far the best Indian around ! Well done Yasin x
One of the best Indians I've had for a long time and lots of choice. A must try, the staff and owners also the most polite ever. We will be back very soon *****
It was our first time there 10th Feb 2018 for our friends birthday. It was fab; Great company Great food Great staff so chilled and the staff could not do enough for you highly recommended
It was my first visit last night and all 5 of us agreed that the staff , service and food were all excellent :-)
I will be returning :-)
I highly recommend a visit :-)
Fabulous, converted pub into an 'Indian' - perfect.... Gents toilet a lot to be desired;-) Food VERY extensive, good choice, at 6.45 getting packed (good sign). Loads of parking.
We love visiting Anarkali. It holds special memories for us (we got engaged here 💕).
We came for a meal and it did not disappoint. The food was amazing! We ordered far too much and had to bring some home, but it was all fresh and delicious! They kindly left us for 5-10 minutes between courses to let our food settle, so we didn't feel rushed. Waiters were always walking around, so we could order drinks if we needed to. The staff and owners are very lovely, and we look forward to visiting again!!
First time here tonight. Very nice food, fabulous service. Everyone very polite and friendly. Can tell the food is freshly cooked. Lovely decor. Definitely worth coming back! Great promos on the food too. Thank you
Delicious food everytime! I usually have a Pathia but after seeing the wonderful reviews regarding the Afghani Lamb Korai, I had to try it! It was incredible, I've never had lamb so tender and the taste was amazing. All the food had powerful flavours and was cooked to perfection. The staff are all very friendly and the restaurant is lovely. I'd highly recommend
Update - had a fantastic meal here last night,
all was delicious but the king prawn starter and the Lamb Afghani Korai main were the stand out dishes, amazing.
A most hospitable establishment.
Review below is from just one year ago.
We received a warm welcome here last night, our first time here.
Situated in a lovely traditional public house the proprietor has done an excellent transformation of the clean interior.
A good selection of drinks, including several on draught.
The poppadoms, chutneys, lamb chops and chicken puree were all delicious and the quality obvious.
Onto the recommended mains of lamb Afghani, chili chicken massala, mango chicken, special rice, garlic and coriander naan and chapatti, all the dishes & accompaniments were outstanding.
The impeccable service made this a five star experience.
Highly recommended.
In my personal opinion the best Indian restaurant in my local area. The food is simply authentic and cooked to perfection. A wide choice on the menu of both food and drinks. First class service and a wonderful host. Would well recommend going.
Enjoyed a really lovely meal here tonight with an old friend. Very large chutney tray with some interesting chutneys I'd not seen before, followed by a tasty mixed grill. Great atmosphere and friendly professional staff.
First visit to this restaurant in 6 years because we'd heard it was under new management.
What an absolute pleasure.
The service was warm, polite and very attentive.
The food was excellent. Fresh and full of fantastic flavours. 5 ☆ We'll definitely be returning.
went here with a friend in the week recently, all I can say is WOW from start to finish! the best curry we have had in years, very friendly staff and a nice place to be, lots of safe parking also.
will defiantly be back soon. keep up the good work Anarkali
Hadnt been here for a few years but good to find the food is still in fine form.
Nice setting and good service. Favourite dish is Mixed Desi Biryani and the Tarka Daal.
Best Indian ever, everything we’ve ever had has always been amazing. Service top notch and you’d be hard pushed to find better! We go at least weekly :-)
Had a fabulous meal Sat night. Service and staff extremely professional. The restaurant is classy and spotless. Well worth a visit
Excellent food and service, friendly staff,
Will recommend to dine here
Atmosphere was lovely, staff were attentive and pleasant. Food was delicious. Thank you for a lovely evening. Highly recommend, will be back.
Food is always good and the staff are lovely and friendly. Great service!
The food is exquisite. I order Afgani lamb curry as my husband and I love this dish. The flavours tantalises your taste buds making you wanting to have more! Also my husband loves the juicy lamb chops! Delicious! Thank you Salma x Amazing x
By far the best Indian I’ve ever had,
In the past two weeks, I have ordered online seven times! The food is absolutely amazing however I’ve just moved house and Realise they no longer deliver to my new address. This is the best Indian ever
Pleasant evening. Friendly and welcoming staff. Food very good, although the vegetable thali was only a prepared meal for 2 or more people. Not available as a one person meal. Reasonably priced. Would definitely come again
