Halal Reviews for Zouk Oxford Road

I ordered the Lamb Shank Curry, Grilled King Prawns, and a Plain Naan with sesame seeds. The lamb shank was outstanding, tender, and fell straight off the bone. The naan arrived hot and the chef was kind enough to add seeds on request. The prawns were full of flavour and cooked perfectly. The food carried deep spice, great texture, and rich aroma. The ambience was warm and stylish. Staff were polite, though more welcoming recommendations would help. • Lamb shank was tender and rich • Prawns were cooked well and full of flavour • Custom naan was a nice touch from the chef • Lovely ambience and great flavours

Restaurant itself was nice but unfortunately at the time we went it wasn't very busy but it was early evening. Starters weren't particularly to my taste but can't fault the presentation. It looked fantastic. The saviour was the main courses. Beautifully presented again and the taste was perfect. Mocktail was really good too albeit they didn't have the smoke box it was supposed to come in. 24k gold cappuccino was the icing on the cake. Finished the meal perfectly. Will be back no doubt.

I had a lovely meal but the main course took a while to come out. The staff were helpful and very polite. The food itself was nice. The lamb biryani was probably the best from our order. I think it is expensive for the food and portions but it is in central Manchester. There is NCP parking near by so very convenient to park up and walk across.

Very mediocre spot. The food lacked character and the atmosphere was horrible. They had people in the upstairs area literally screaming and whistling throughout the whole meal. We ordered the Sunday roast platter for 2 people. You pay £60 and you receive 5 potatoes, 7 carrots and 5 pieces of broccoli along with the tiniest pot of gravy and not much else apart from the meats. Shocking value for money, not worth the price at all. The little vegetables you got were just boiled or steamed, no seasoning on them whatsoever. The lamb was okay, can’t fault it, the beef was tough and the chicken was nicely cooked, but it was cold. Although it looks good on picture, in person it is not worth the price, it lacks flavour, and it lacks quality to be honest. It was all very bland. There are other Sunday roast spots across Manchester for way cheaper that are miles better than this. Would not go again, and I personally do not recommend. It was a waste of money and time for us.

Loved it! The food was absolutely delicious perfectly spiced, just the right level of heat to enjoy every bite. The staff were incredibly attentive, and we were looked after by a lovely young lady with glasses who went above and beyond to make our experience special. I asked for a personalised dessert, and she put so much care into it ,truly appreciated! Highly recommend!
