Red Forte or a joke! 31st May 2009

0 found this helpful

After approximately 2 years of travelling to Manchester on a weekly basis for eating out, we decided to try yet again the Red Forte where we had not been for nearly two years. Though the previous occasions were not spectacular, still them were not exactly total disappointment.
We had a nice little quite corner to sit and so the beginnings were encouraging. We asked for our favourite Mango lassi. And then it came, i m not sure what it was but it was more like sweet yoghart water, as there was niether any taste nor any color of mango in it! it was white liquid with a very faint yellow tinge, it looked and tasted more like if somebody added some coloring ingredient into yoghart water.
The starters, qeema puri was edible, but Shaami kebab did not taste like a shaami kebab at all, it was more like minced meat mixed with spice and fried, again total loss.
The biggest joke of the evening was the main course Achari Gosht, believe me, you gota have teeth and jaws of a shark to prey on that meat, God, it was worse then bitting a bullet, we could not even eat a single piece of meat, i even tried cutting it with knife! but yet no success!
And then what? when we complained this to one of the waitors, he had a news for us! what? that, when we came last time, we also made a complaint against food.....WHAT???? may be our twin duplicates been dining around in Lark lane when we were having a ball in posh Manchester restaurents the last two years!
I still cant believe what hapened there, but one thing i do believe in, is no more Red Forte!

Decent Indian Food 4th September 2008

Situated in Lark Lane, The Red Fort is a really good Indian restaurant. Like the rest of the nation, curry is my favourite national dish and The Red Fort does not disappoint. This curry house is the ideal location for a date as the tables lead back from the window and the low lighting offers privacy and a bit of romance.

The food at The Red Fort is fresh and delicious and there are dishes to suit every palate. The cost of a meal at The Red Fort is very reasonable which means that a night out does not have to be on pay day.

The staff at the Red Fort and friendly and helpful and able to suggest dishes to suit different people. If visiting the Red Fort you should try one of the Tikka dishes which are absolutely delicious. The naan breads are absolutely gorgeous and the food really his the mark. Enjoy!!

Nice Indian 3rd September 2008

Red Fort Indian Restaurant is on Lark Lane, the ever more prolific foodie destination in South Liverpool, so there is lots of competition around.
The Red Fort holds its own and seems to have a loyal customer base, but is never terribly busy.

Our favourites to start are Garlic mushrooms on puree bread and onion bhajies, all served with fresh salads and good dips.
Our main course choices are Chicken Makhonwalla, a mild dish with cream, almonds and cheese, and the Vegetarian Dansak, a nice slightly hot sauce with lentils, lemon juice and pineapple.
Staff is friendly and service is speedy.

Nothing terribly special but good quality and reliable. If you want Indian with a twist try the Maharaja on London Road instead.

Also offers a Take Away service.
