Food was beautiful and the staff are so friendly and chatty. Some of the best food I’ve had in Macclesfield. Very authentic flavours you don’t normally see round here. Would highly recommend to anyone! Will be back soon.

Fresh Food! Vegan! Fruits are fresh, not tinned! Not too oily or too salty! A good range. Great service and space. Aside from their monthly buffet, in general they have great service and quality food on the menu for plant-based, vegan food - I feel healthy and don't have any allergic or intolerant reaction that I find in general curry restaurants. 23 per adult, age 5 children for free for Buffets.

We had a family trip here, & all three of us were very impressed. The food was superb, especially the chicken kothu. The menu is smaller than a lot of restaurants but has lots of vegetarian & vegan dishes. They also stock Sri Lanka Lion stout, which at 8.5% is worth a try, if that's your bag. I've only given four stars for Atmosphere, because it was quiet whilst we were there, but it was a nice relaxed place. Recommend.

Delicious Jaffna dosa, lovely curry and sauce. You can choose your level of spice. Curry & Dahl was cooked well, and the dosa bread was light and chewy.

I hadn't been to Macclesfield in a couple of years and was really hoping this place would still be open from my last visit and to my delight it was, and importantly still serving delicious food brought by super friendly staff. I had lobster balls, lamb sizzla stir-fry with egg fried rice and watlapan dessert, all of which I'd definitely order again...if there weren't so many other tempting things to try on their menu

Kandy offers a culinary journey unlike any other. From the elegant ambiance to the impeccable service, every moment is a delight. Had Lamprais and Chicken Kottu which was fantastic. Dessert was watalappam and that was mouth watering. This hidden gem is a must-visit for food lovers seeking a memorable dining experience. Can park your vehicle nearby car park.

Friendly, competent service, readily available to explain and recommend from the menu. Note to the wise: a "medium" here is a hot in your usual Indian restaurant. Every dish was beautiful and so flavoursome. Cooked perfectly. I had jack fruit for the first time and it was amazing! Reminded me of pulled pork. Was spoilt for choice so I guess I'll have to come back!

My 3rd time eating here. Normally just selecting off the menu which always has me excited at the very different dishes and flavors on offer. This trip however was for the Vegan buffet night. Such great value for money and the opportunity to try lots of new flavors and foods I would never normally go for. My 10yr old daughter really enjoyed the foods on offer and the variety. Overall, a wonderful place that adds a very new dimension to a wide range of dining choices in macclesfield and makes it's own unique place that should be visited and frequently too! Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff always add to ensure your experience leaves you happy.
