About Bardez Didsbury - Indian Street Food and Grill

Bardez Didsbury is an Indian street food and grill restaurant on Wilmslow Road that's built a reputation on portion sizes, flavour, and staff who actually care. The menu runs through curries, grilled dishes, and starters—reviewers mention butter chicken, dal makhani, chicken biryani, and a vegan chilli chicken starter that's won over vegetarians across the area. It's casual and trendy, the kind of place that fills up on weekends (one reviewer noted it's "really busy"), and they've got a Sunday buffet that regulars keep returning for. The bar runs cocktails—one reviewer specifically praised the pornstar martinis. Dogs are allowed outside, there's free street parking, and they take reservations (recommended for dinner). One regular noted they come "every week and are working our way through the menu", which tells you the food's consistent enough to justify repeat visits.
