Manam Indian Cuisine

We tried the banana leaf buffet today and must say it was super amazing and the food was delicious .
Variety of items for both veg and non-veg people. The taste of the food was authentic. The people serving the food were friendly and catering to the needs, asking if we needed and serving promptly. The owner/manager was kind enough to describe the menu items since those were in Tamil( I guess) which was helpful.
Overall good experience.

Nice and decent place to dine in and this place fits decent amount of crowd. The menu is having wide variety of Indian cuisines. My favourite is Chicken biryani. We also ordered Naan and butter paneer masala which was delicious. We ordered shezwan noodles which is average in taste.
Overall the service is good. The waiter who takes the order is friendly and humble enough to customise our order based on our preferences.

I traveled from OH to PA for leisure. Our friends from PA recommended this place. We ordered Ambur mutton biryani, parotta, chicken curry, fish curry, and chicken 65. It was one of the best Ambur mutton biryani I had in a while. The service was awesome. Niranjan, our waiter, did an excellent job of taking care of our needs and for our kids. If you wanted to try foods that taste like food from Kerala or TamilNadu, I would strongly recommend it.

Visited this wonderful restaurant around noon for lunch.

Delicious food menu and ordered few of them.

Most importantly this is the first restaurant where my kids loved Indian food and they have requested to reorder the same twice. shrimp 65 is top of it. I can feel the taste even now, when I am writing this review after a day.

Parota was so tasty and the gravy given for it was so delicious, especially the chicken curry.

Briyani is tasty and yummier than the ones I had from other restaruants in the US.

mutton varuval ( mutton fry ) was so delicious.

The chicken soup which was amazing.. It reminded me of soups from few best restaurants I tasted in India.

All the items we bought were very tasty and yummy. my kids loved it.

I believe when a plate is empty there can only be one reason "TASTE".

we will visit again and taste other items on the menu.

Best Restaruant for indian food.
Great taste, Great team.

Nothing can ever match the taste and flavour of our traditional food..

Manam Indian Cuisine

We were looking for South Indian food today and found out this location with good ratings on google. This restaurant is nicely decorated and illuminated. We had masala dosa, idly and tandoori chicken for our dinner tonight. Food was delicious 😋. We loved the idly most as it was served with fresh chutney of different kinds. Masala dosa was great too 👍. Chicken was overcooked as per my son’s opinion. Our overall experience was great! Hope to be back again.

Food is delicious!! Obviously, they get really busy on weekends so have patience or go early like we did! We loved everything we ordered from the apps to the naan, butter chicken, and special curry.

I've been here multiple times for lunch and dinner with my family. They have plenty of vegetarian options and the food is good too.
Recently, I booked their banquet hall and their buffet service for my daughter's first birthday party. Priya was just fantastic in helping me with the arrangements. She was also able to accommodate us after we had to reschedule the event. We had approximately 30 guests. The table arrangements and food were taken care of. The food was refilled, kept hot and the dirty plates were promptly cleared. Our guests loved the food too. We had ordered medhu vada, gobi 65, garlic naan, butter roti, paneer butter masala, kadai vegetable, dum biriyani, hakka noodles and rasamalai. Definitely recommended for small events.

This restaurant is very close to our office when travel for work and several co-workers recommended it to us for delicious Indian food.

We had a large group and they handled it very well. We shared some appetizers of Gobi Manchurian. It was so good that we ordered another one as well as a Gobi 65. I actually liked the Gobi 65 even more.

For entrees, my husband and I shared the Appam with Egg Curry and Channa Masala. The Channa Masala came with rice but we of course had to get some cheese naan with it too.

We were so impressed by the Appam with Egg Curry. I had no idea what to expect because we'd never had the dish before, but a co-worker recommended it to us so we tried it. It's now probably my favorite Indian dish that I've ever had.

We ordered everything spicy and it definitely had spice, but wasn't overbearing. We love spicy food and definitely could have had spicier. If you're not Indian and you want it to be really spicy, I recommend working really hard to convince them you can handle the heat.

The service was incredible. They let us all pay separately without making a big deal about it. This is not something we've seen at other restaurants in the area.

If you're in the Malvern area and like Indian food, you need to try this place.

Must Go.
Delicious Food.
One of the finest Indian food I tasted in USA. Everything was really flavorful and with good spices. This is BYOB so I recommend to go with your fav drinks to settle down the spices.
Tandoori Chicken and Pepper Mutton is must try. The Kulfi they served for the Birthday boy was really really good. So I think they got nice desserts too.

If you want to have the best South Indian food in 50 miles around Philadelphia, Manam is the place to go. Authentic Kerala Appam and goat/chicken curry is second to none. Chicken 65, Kothu porrotta, Gobi Manchurian are great too. Friendly staff, nice ambience, food lovers’ heaven.

We were super hungry when we got to this place and we were hoping for nothing but the best taste, and it turned out to be a one we had hoped for. The guy who took our order was super helpful explaining the items. Amazing taste and service.

We ordered food for an event and Manam staff delivered everything they promised, and the guests were incredibly happy with all aspects of this catered food.

We started off with ginger tea. The tea was picked up at 2:30 pm, we had the tea between 4:00 pm and 5:00 pm, surprisingly there was tea left over and few guests tried the tea at 10:30 pm and it was still hot. Great tea provided in a superior quality insulated container.

Appetizers included idli, medhu vada, baby corns and paneer chili. These apps were enjoyed by all, my daughters were happy that there was some baby corn salt and pepper left in the tray, so they could eat more the next day.

For the dinner the vegetarian options chana masala and paneer tikka masala was enjoyed by all, the quantity was enough for all. We also had Manam goat curry and Kothamali chicken curry. Veg hakka noodles, pulao rice, naan provided the necessary carbs. The food was very tasty, and several guests stopped by to complement us for selecting Manam as the caterer and for selecting the best items possible.

All food was delivered on time and in a hot insulated case, so the food tasted like it came out of the kitchen, even when it was served a few hours later.

Right from the start, the experience was good, we liked how all the staff members were available to answer our questions and help us finalize the food items for the event. I think all our future events will have food from this place. Special call out to Priya and Ganesh for going the extra distance to make sure we have a great party.

Tasty food and friendly staff. The are located on Lancaster Ave, with limited parking, and offer large and small dining areas. Open seven days a week with takeout and delivery offered. The menu has a large selection, with vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options. {Please verify the item is GF when ordering}. If you enjoy spicy foods, not all on the menu are, you'll enjoy Manam!

Good food. Restroom is clean. I hope you guys keep this standard forever. Food taste is really good and service is fast and up to the mark.

As a south Indian who lives spicy food and his biriyani and parotta, manam exceeded all expectations. The kerala parotta was extremely flaky(which is a very good thing) and the biriyani had a lot of flavor to it. We also tried chili barotta which was extremely crispy. Chef Haja ensures there's a touch of "chennai" in all his dishes. Well some and keep up the good work.

Had an amazing Onam (Hindu cultural festival celebrated primarily in the Indian state of Kerala) special lunch thali (lunch plate) and it was delicious. So many varieties and each one an experience out of this world. The food here is amazing and I would definitely recommend this place.

Amazing food and service! We have been here 3 times in the past month. Can’t wait to try everything on the menu..our favorites are the Gobi 65 and Chili Paneer!

After a long time had the best South Indian spicy food. Kudos to the staff in the kitchen for maintaining the aunthencity of each and every dish served. Very friendly staff and their service is super fast!! They honored our request to serve the kids dishes first :)
Had a great dinner with friends and family!!!
Must try:
1) Royyalla Vepudu(Shrimp fry)
2) Pepper chicken
3) Appam & egg/chicken curry

One minor feedback to the team: the lamb chops tasted good but to me it was a bit under cooked. Hope they make it well done next time!

The food was good. Tandoori Salmon was yum so was malai kofta. Laal gosht did disappoint a little its was not “laal” plus..I mean you cannot ask for/ get authentic north Indian food in US but i’ll give to Manam for making it a pleasant lunch experience.

Update after owner's response-
Its good to hear that you dont use artificial colors and flavors but I will still say it was not up to the mark. This is coming from a person who knows his food. A five star feedback and mention for two awesome dishes with a "satisfactory" comment on the third dish leaves room for improvement and not a reason to leave excuses as a reply. I can make you 100 times better laal gosht with fresh ingredients with all the spices made from scratch..!!
