"We tried this place for the first time about 3 weeks ago"
"We ordered for the first time tonight from Durbar Square - They were so helpful when ordering with recommendations (even suggesting that some dishes eg Momo dumplings would be better to try when we eat-in because they don’t travel as well for takeaway)"
"Popped in not knowing at all what to expect! Menu was extensive, loads of options and lots for veggies and vegans too which was great"
"Went after seeing the good reviews"
"I came here with my family for an evening meal"
We tried this place for the first time about 3 weeks ago. The customer service was awesome. Their food was good but I just felt that my Chicken Tikka Masala was too spicy for my palate. It might just be subjective as I'm not really good with spicy food so maybe just request your level of spice tolerance when you order if it can be requested to be less spicy. However, their chutneys with the papadoms were lovely! We even requested to take away the remaining chutneys but the lovely lady gave us a fresh batch. Great value for money too! Would recommend that you try this place! :)

We ordered for the first time tonight from Durbar Square - They were so helpful when ordering with recommendations (even suggesting that some dishes eg Momo dumplings would be better to try when we eat-in because they don’t travel as well for takeaway). Food was hot, fresh & tasty when it was delivered and the price was reasonable (less than some other lower quality local competitors). Takeaway curries have been hot & miss for a while round here and I’m hoping we’ve found a reliable, regular favourite. Thank you.

Popped in not knowing at all what to expect! Menu was extensive, loads of options and lots for veggies and vegans too which was great. Took me so long to decide what I wanted as all looked so nice. Had a paneer masala, a fresh salad and samosa chat. Was really lovely and the service was great. Would recommend for a nice meal in Didsbury! Really reasonable too :) thanks

Went after seeing the good reviews. Ordered momos platter for our starter and the steamed momos were raw, with uncooked dough and chicken raw and pink in the middle. The main curries were 5/10. Staff, however were friendly and welcoming. Kept on apologising for the raw food. It's not really the waiters fault. If I didn't cut open the momo and see the filling inside, probably throwing up right now with food poisoning. Hopefully kitchen staff don't make this mistake again. They were kind enough to take the bombay potatoes off our bills though lol ♀️

I came here with my family for an evening meal. Beautifully decorated little restaurant. The staff were friendly, welcoming and attentive. This was the first time I tried Nepalese food and I was so impressed, especially with their starters. We all had a wonderful meal! I will definitely come back again. A real gem in Didsbury.

Wow, this place is a hidden gem! The food here is mind blowing. I’ve traveled to India and Nepal before and I can say Durbar Square is at a level like no other. You must try the Dahl Makhani with some Paratha bread, it’s amazing. The staff are so humble and lovely. I can’t wait to go back.

Tuesday 26th September 2023 My wife and myself went for dinner at the Durbar. We were greeted by Hemant with a huge smile who showed us to the table And went through the menu. The food we ordered was perfectly presented and was excellent very freshly cooked. Ive had many Niharis this one was the best. We will be definatly returning. Excellent Service and Excellant Food .

Wow!!! Talk about finding the golden goose on your doorstep! Dined at Durbar Square last night. This Nepalese restaurant is a little gem! The food is utterly exquisite, the presentation exotic and the staff warm and welcoming. Will definitely be putting this scrumptious eatery high on our list of Go To places or have them deliver to us! Shshsh! Don’t tell too many people otherwise there’ll be queues all the way down Barlow Moor Road!

Ordered using “Just eat” to pick up. Got there and the food wasn’t ready, notified them we were there waiting. We waited and waited and waited then when we asked “is it ready?” they were asking what we wanted. We were polite and wanted to cancel the order and the attitude, save one waitress, was the most rude and appalling I’ve seen. Never going back there again. Ever

I've lived around the corner for a year before I tried it here, and can't believe I didn't do it sooner. Staff were great and friendly, and the food was amazing. Even down to the poppadom sauces, which are a level above most other Indians. The butter chicken was the best I've ever had.

Our first meal when we reached England. Initially I was thinking of trying another eatery but unfortunately that was closed during lunch, but I have no regret dining at Durban Square. We enjoyed the lunch, love the Palak Paneer, butter chicken, Shank lamb. In fact we loved everything that we ordered.
Amazing ambience and food was impeccable! Great friendly service and the food was delicious and fresh- not heavy which is rare for an Indian restaurant. Couldn’t recommend here enough!
