Loved the Lamb Mandi. Highly succulent dishes.very small options but all tasty. They don't do Pizza anymore. Chicken roast was good. Best was the Garlic Mayo and home made Tomato chilli sauce.

Was given a warm welcome, 6 of us had travelled in from London for the bank hoilday and really enjoyed the food and the traditional seat area. Would recommend the Mandi if you are in a large group! Will definitely come back if we visit Swansea again

Overall experience was great. The restaurent located in swansea, wales and serves middle eastern dishes. The service was a bit slow but the food was genuine and delicious! The only minor downside was the stuffed vine leaves dish as if they were the canned ready to eat kind!

“I recently tried the rice platters here, and they were absolutely delicious! The presentation was beautiful, and the portion size was perfect. The rice was cooked to perfection – fluffy, fragrant, and flavorful. The accompanying sides were fresh and paired so well with the dish. The flavors were well-balanced, and you could tell that high-quality ingredients were used. The service was prompt and friendly.

Excellent and attentive service by generous staff. The Mandi was a treat - a huge portion with half a chicken! Like the Arabic biryani I had in the middle east. Very authentic. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more dishes.
