Owned by the well respected Raja brothers of Bradford, The Riverside Restaurant, part of the East Z East group, has a stunning contemporary décor and relaxed ambience suited to every occasion. No expense has been spared when it comes to attention for detail at this Punjabi restaurant on Deansgate in Manchester. The venue offers authentic  cuisine in a vibrant, inventive and friendly atmosphere.

Pieces of lamb chops on the bone, marinated in spices and chargrilled, or prawn puri - fresh juicy prawns cooked in masala sauce, served on a crispy fried roti might be a sizzling way to start your meal. For the main course consider opting for the masthi lal handi, fresh chicken, tiger prawns and chana cooked in sauce, specially prepared for this dish with onions, tomatoes, garlic, ginger and spices along with a variety of Indian breads to hand. Or you may feel drawn to the taqur-ki-thali - freshly prepared chicken, lamb, prawn and keema in bunah style, served with pilau rice.
