    Utterly disappointed!!! We had placed an order through deliveroo, where we asked for 1 chilli chicken and 1 chilli paneer, instead we got 2 chilli chicken. To our confusion, the box still had chilli paneer written on it, but had chilli chicken inside. Being a vegetarian, I would have eaten chicken if my friend would not have stopped me. When we informed the restaurant staff about the incorrect item, the staff started arguing and were extremely rude. It was very upsetting, never going to order from them again.

    We were visiting the area from Scotland and having saw their Instagram page we knew we had to visit Jajoo in Hale. The moment we arrived we knew we had made a good decision. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the food was amazing. Each dish we had was perfectly flavoured and the portion sizes were very generous. The lady who welcomed us made some great recommendations on which dishes to try as there are some authentic options not normally seen on curry house menus. The food was one of the best Indians we have ever had and we would definitely return when back in the area.

    12 of us went for dinner Saturday night @ 7pm. The ground floor was mostly full. (Upstairs dining area was closed). I don’t know if they were a ‘man down’ that particular evening but the service was quite slow. Waiting staff were mostly nice and polite so only problem was there seemed to be not enough of them. But! The food was EXCELLENT very tasty and authentic tasting dishes. Highly recommended. I personally will eat here again and have added them to my takeaway portfolio! 🤤 Between us we had a large chunk of the menu and all dishes reported to be superb.

    Lovely food and well presented starters. Mango mojito was top . I would recommend this restaurant and try “different” indian experience compare to all the same food you get in indian fast foods around.

    Ordered from here many times now. Delivery is always fast. The food is good although sometimes the panipuri arrives quite soggy. Never visited the restaurant only ever had takeaway.

    Our expectations were low when we made a decision to dine at Jajoo, i must say it is one of the best restaurants in the area and it made it to my top 5 list of restaurants in Altrincham. Nice and cosy place and the food is excellent. The manager of the restaurant Madhu understood what exactly we are looking for and advised us the the dishes to choose, he gone an extra mile to customize the food to meet our expectations!

    Authentic Indian food! We really loved the food here, especially lamb shank (nali). It was mouth watering food with right amount of spices. Would surely come back.

    Highly recommend! Lovely friendly service, a very relaxed atmosphere with nice background music playing. Delicious food! The Lamb Ragda curry is a must. We also really loved the Old Delhi Gilafi seekh kebabs.

    Popped in to use the bar as we were waiting for teens to finish a birthday meal across the road. There was nowhere open to grab a coffee at 6.30pm on a snowy December eve. Although we were not dining in we were welcomed as any guest and the service was excellent even if it was for only 2 coffees and a beer. We are looking forward to coming back for a meal soon. Thankyou.

    This Indian restaurant is a hidden gem in the heart of Hale. The food is superior to any of the other Indians here that we have tried. The dishes are authentic Indian street food rather than a westernised version. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The ambience and decoration is beautiful. Every dish we have tried was just perfect and delicious. This is real Indian food. Do yourself a favour and come here for an amazing culinary experience.

    Went with a small family group. Firstly got the drink wrong. Lager shandy ordered (bog standard). Brother was looking puzzled sipping it. I had a sniff and said they've put lime cordial in there (and a lot). It tasted awful. We asked the waiter to change it for lager and lemonade and he really didn't seem to know what he was doing. Slight language difficulty also. Was given a lager and a little glass bottle of Schweppes lemonade. The other beer had lemonade put in but we had to ask for it stirred as lemonade sat on the bottom. Thankfully I had tap water! After all that, the beer wasnt even good and appeared to have been watered down. Didn't recognise the brand. The food was just OK. It wasn't great IMO but not greasy. which was a bonus. A mini bowl of Dorito shaped popadoms with TINY bowls of dips. My veggi Jalfrezi curry I believe, had mostly frozen veg. The king prawns were juicy but not prepared properly. They hadn't been deveined and slightly gristly. My sister said the lamb chops were very good. I tried a Seekh kebab. I found it a bit tough and slightly gristly and could have done with extra flavour. Finally we asked to take leftovers home. I opened it today. It was NOT our rice or nan bread!! Nan piece was half eaten. There was just a third of the rice we'd left uneaten. Oh - the toilets were pleasantly clean, as was the restaurant. Staff looked smart. Service was a bit slow despite fact hardly anyone else dining! I enjoyed the quiet. For such a highly rated restaurant in Hale village, sorry, but the experience we had was poor. Family should have listened to me and gone to the Massala Lounge in Sale! A little cheaper and so much better. Plus the beer is good in there!

    Very nice staff and good service, food was great and the atmosphere was perfect. Relaxed piano and violin music is exactly the atmosphere I like, this was on a quiet Wednesday night so it might be different on a busier night of the week.

    First time I've been here although it's only been open a year so can't really give it my full review! I remember it when it was Danilo Italian restaurant, sadly no longer! Was renowned for being one for younger more adventurous diners wanting to take advantage of the more unruly access to illegal substances, this might just be a reputation rather than true reality. Our friend wanted an Indian curry after the Bowdonbury experience but we couldn't be bothered to walk any further to the Cinnamon or Syriana a little further along the route (wish we had though!) Wasn't a brilliant experience, we all felt we were in their way so we left quickly and giving it a poor review. I won't be going again. My other reviews of the Hale restaurants aren't much better, it's definitely going downhill whilst prices are going sky high!

    Some great dishes - the lamb chops and the biriani. Others (momod and tocos) a bit overcooked. Great service and good atmosphere. We will return.

  • 5/5 Dave J. 9 months ago on Google
    We have eaten here many times now and always enjoyed the food. We ordered some lamb, chicken and naan bread with some rice. We also got a couple of the cocktails which were lovely as well. Great restaurant for some delicious Indian food.

    Good place for a nice meal. The only downside is that they close by 9.30pm. Food is of good quality and freshly made. Been here few times and the food was good always.

    Yet again this seriously genuine (having been to India a couple of times on holiday) Indian Street Food restaurant ticked all out boxes. The starters we recommend (and had before!) are the paneer with grilled pineapple, the puri and the deconstructed samosa. The staff are delightful, the ambience relaxing and can’t think we would ever need to choose another Indian locally. Oh and we stuffed ourselves all for £30/head with a generous and well deserved tip!

  • 1/5 karoline c. 1 year ago on Google
    Over all really bad experience Giving 1 start as we had lamb chop for starter and it was really nice But that’s it We order lamb and chicken butter for main. Both were salted but lamb it was ridiculous salted, we couldn’t eat so kindly ask to waiter who said he needed to clean table next to us ,after that he took the dish to the kitchen, never apologize or anything .. after 10 min brought dish back and it was still very salted till the point we couldn’t eat. So we ended up leaving the food there Took them more then 30 min to come back and clean the table , not even one waiter asked if the dish was better or apologized. We mentioned about the dish still being too salted and the fact that we didn’t eat but again no apologies. They didn’t care at all They have charged us for the lamb dish even though we couldn’t eat due being ridiculous salted We have paid but never ever coming back to this place The whole experience wasn’t nice and service was absolutely chocking

    Very tasty and authentic Indian food. Very friendly and attentive staff. The samosa came in an unexpected format (shredded) - but I have it on good account that this is typical for the region (and if I had bothered to read the description) Garlic naan is the flat type - I prefer the thicker more succulent ones. Butter chicken - just tasty (offered in versions with or without bones)

    Amazing place, delicious food and excellent service. The staff went out of their way to make everything perfect for our family meal at Jajoo. Can't fault it at all. It's a gem. Will certainly be returning again and look forward to it. Thank you to all the lovely staff for the wonderful time and excellent service. You really made my mums 80th birthday celebrations one to remember.

    Nice clean and charming restaurant, the food was amazing, the mango lassie wasnt as good as other places that I've tried, but portion size for food was brilliant

  • 5/5 David F. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic Indian. Food is street/tapas style. My advice would be to go heavy on the small dishes, and go lighter on main courses.

    Fantastic food, top friendly service, a must visit 👍
