Steak, Meat, Chicken

Reviews summary

Sanah’s restaurant in Oldham emerges as a mixed bag, capturing both delightful culinary moments and notable disappointments. While many patrons praise its warm ambiance and attentive service, including standout dishes like lamb chops and biryani, others express dissatisfaction with an insufficient parking situation, a cash-only policy, and the absence of alcohol. Some diners report overly salty dishes and slow service during peak times. Despite the inconsistent experiences, its welcoming decor and delicious options earn it a loyal following. For those in search of authentic flavors in a cozy setting, Sanah’s may still be worth a visit.

The food was satisfactory. The atmosphere was pleasant. The staff seemed a bit unsure, but they made an effort to be helpful. There was a minor issue with payment as they don't accept cash, but they accommodated us by allowing payment through bank transfer.

I was there today 16/04/2023 and the service was awful we was all fasting and didn’t even get our starters to eat and they did the two big tables first and kept on serving them whilst all the little tables where waiting for food or there starters to open there fast. You need more workers

The restaurant serves below-average, oily curry and greasy salt and pepper chips. The Jalfrezi tasted like it came from a jar. They do not offer any alcohol. For a meal for two costing £67.00, I do not plan on dining there again.

One of the best restaurants in Oldham. Service is excellent and the food is delicious. The restaurant has a nice family feel to it with good colours and decoration throughout. Attended with some friends and we had starters and the main meal. The lamb chops are really nice. The Biryani is my favourite on the menu, I have tried the chicken previously but this time got the lamb whilst we also ordered a mixed one too which we shared. It is a little spicy but is well cooked and presented and tastes even better!! The lamb and chicken karahi’s are on point and the roti is always piping hot, just how we like it. Thank you again for a wonderful service and great food. Will see you again soon.

Went and visited for the second time on Thursday for my birthday with my partner and it did not disappoint. Food was amazing !! Fish pakoras are amazing and the lamb chops were beautiful and the meat just fell off the bone!! Nice authentic food and honestly best curry that we have found in Oldham . Fresh tasty food and honestly can’t believe how good the prices were . Customer service is amazing and they don’t pester . Nothing I hate more than people coming over asking questions when you have a mouth full of food . Only down falls I have is it’s cash only and the chips are like oven chips but other than that it’s a 10/10 . Glad we found this little hidden gem when it opened

On Thursday for the second time to the birthday with my partner visited and not disappointed. eating was amazing! fishpakoras are amazing and the lamb dogs were beautiful and the meat just fell from the bone! beautiful authentic eating. and honest best curry we found in oldham. freshly delicious food and honestly can not believe how good the prices were. customer service is amazing and they are not pestering. Nothing I hate more than people who ask when they have a mouthful of food. only fall I have it is cash and the chips are like chips, but different from that it is a 10/10.

I had heard a lot positive about many asspects, but was unwilling to try. Anyway, I finally went and loved to my surprise eating. had not had a big huh nimbali is old . akhbars and east z east in makeer, there nimbali. use to be good, but sanahs was the best. the steak was before place, service was amazing. I will visit very soon or even order for a delivery order.

I and 5 friends visited this extraordinary place. the food was fresh. we want the tawa for 6, nihari and paay. excellent. the personal was friendly and the manager/owner was a really nice guy. jazakhallah khair

I came here with a group of mates as we were recommended by a few people but as a group we were disappointed. I want to start by saying the staff were great couldn't have done more to make us feel welcome but that's it...for good points am afraid. 1. Limit parking onsite. 2. As we enter we see a sign that says Cash Only' which for a restaurant just isnt good enough and the nearest cash point is either down Ashton rd or into Oldham. 3. No Alcohol. I have to say this disappointed myself the most. I like a pint with my food especially a curry!!! I just think that if there was alcohol you could have added at least £60 onto the bill and we would've been happy that, but we all stuck to 1 bottled soft drink each. Just a big let down. 4. Main meal was too salty. As a group we all agreed, I went home gasping for a drink. So all in all it's just not for me and I cant see myself going back there again!!!
