The Moss Nook Indian Restaurant is a welcoming dining room on Trenchard Drive in Wythenshawe, close to Manchester Airport. Its menu brings together North and South Indian cooking, including a clear strand of Kerala inspired dishes, in a setting suited to relaxed meals and family occasions.
Tandoori choices include chicken, malai chicken tikka and achari paneer tikka, while curries and regional preparations cover meat, seafood and vegetables. The cooking uses spice, marinades and charcoal heat to create variety rather than relying on a single house style.
South Indian dishes such as thattu dosa, ghee roast and masala dosa sit alongside chicken and mutton biryani, vegetable pulao and a broad bread selection. Naan, tandoori roti, kallappam and Kerala paratha give diners several ways to accompany and share the larger dishes.
Vegetarian choices are integrated across the menu, and familiar desserts include gulab jamun, mango kulfi and pistachio kulfi. Table booking is available for dining in, while takeaway and catering extend the kitchen to meals at home and larger events.
