Best Indian restaurant - Edit
I have been here multiple times - it’s a great place to bring family and friends! Every dish I have tried has been amazing. Majority of the dishes are vegan and the fact that all the naan is vegan is amazing! They have a large range of dishes from street food to curries. The drinks are amazing (I’d recommended the coconut daiquiri). Well priced and they do a 10% student and nhs discount. I’d recommend signing up to their mailing list as they often send promotions

Decent place for vegans - Edit
Our first visit to Sanskriti and we were generally impressed. It's a 10 minutes walk from Mauldeth Road station and a few buses stop almost outside including the No 25.
Read moreIt was pretty busy when we went in (early Sunday evening) which we thought was a good sign. We had a choice of dishes (starters and mains). My favourite was definitely the dosa which you don't tend to see in quite so many places. The food was tasty although some of it was a little spicy for my kids - they mark spicy/hot dishes on the menu, but some were not marked as spicy and were a bit too spicy for their palates (maybe a 1-3 or 1-5 chilli marking by each item would help?). We came away very full, so weren't able to consider any desserts. If I was in the area again I would certainly consider visiting again.
Pros: Huge menu and good choice for vegans, Tasty food
Cons: Some food was very spicy but not marked as such

Delicious - Edit
To start, someone came running up to the door with a ramp as soon as they saw me at the door. This, along with a good sized disabled toilet made me happy about my visit. The service was polite and discreet.
Read moreThe menu has a vast choice of vegan options: many veg dishes had vegan options, like replacing tofu for paneer so this place could easily be fully vegan if it chose to. I had pani puri for a starter, masala dosa for a main and vegan masala chai: all delicious. I was close to just eating the coriander dip on its own with a spoon.
Pros: Wheelchair accessibility , Delicious Food, Ambience

Would give a 5 if was fully Vegan, the dairy is not necessary ! - Edit
We visited here with 2 meat eaters and all of us loved it, loads of flavour. Most dishes are Vegan or can be made to be however there are some vegetarian options which kind of makes it more difficult to work out the menu, would be better if just all Vegan as the Veggie options are only a handful anyway just get rid ! Whats red is white remember after all.
Read moreSoy tika starter was a no from us.
All pics are Vegan food.
Would defo return, nice vibe and very authentic.

Dosa - Edit
Probably best to book ahead as it was busy, they seated us as we're quick eaters. My girlfriend had a dosa, can't remember what I had but it was lovely. The garlic naan & onion bhajis were fantastic.

Really excellent food - Edit
One of the best curry houses I have ever tried. They have an extensive menu and everything I’ve tried has been delicious. The vegan kebabs are great, and the ragda pattis is amazing.

Excellent food - Edit
The food is great, both when you sit in and take away. They specialise in South Indian food so it’s quite different from your typical Anglo-Indian restaurant (which is typically based on North Indian cuisine).

Mango Mule mmmmmm - Edit
Had the Aloo Gobi, the Seehk kebab, Tarka Dahl, Garlic Naan, Cobra beer, Mango mule.
Read moreThe Mango mule was delicious, I don't normally order a second drink at restaurants but I had to have another one, so refreshing.
Cobra beer ON TAP was great!
The Seehk kebab came out sizzling, sounded amazing, however, the flavour and texture was more like a falafel, but I love the garnish on it.
Tarka Dahl was really really good, authentic and rich in taste, we asked for super spicy but it came out with zero spice unfortunately, but still yummy.
Aloo Gobi was a bit too salty for me but it smelt and tasted great, again, there was no spice even though we asked for it to be medium spiced.
Galic naan was beautiful, tasted like they put garlic powder right at the beginning of the cooking process which made the end result perfectly garlicky, it was soft like a pillow, loved it.
Nice restaurant, clearly marked menu on what's vegan and what is not, lovely staff, love the decor, lots to look at. Well worth the trip out!

Major disappointment - Edit
Literally never leave bad reviews but after our experience today I believe its necessary. Took 45 minutes to recieve our full drinks order and in this time we had to remind staff about one of the drinks. Nobody came back to take our food order and we had to go to the front desk to ask a waitress to take our order after 45 minutes. After 2 hours our hot food still hadn't arrived. We literally saw tables that had come in after us be seated, served, eat, pay and leave with new people sitting at the table with our food still nowhere in sight. We left without food after two hours, with the waitress initially still trying to get us to pay for the mains we hadn't eaten. Not a single apology from any of the waiting staff the whole time when we had clearly been the only table left to wait. Food looked great but unfortunately now we will never know for sure, do not recommend and will not be returning

Great Vegan Options - Edit
I've only given 4 stars due to the fact the food came out warm and we waited ages for the main meal.
Read moreThe surrounding area outside the restaurant, leaves a lot to be desired if walking from the car park at the back. It's a dumping ground, dog faeces on the path and overloaded bins. All a big turn off because the food although only warm was delicious.

Pros: Great options. Delicious Food. Lovely waiters, , Waitresses.

Deservedly cult like following - Edit
So far Sanskruti has weathered the storm of lockdown and looks set to bounce back. It deserves to. It’s one of the finest Indian restaurants in the north west. A great range is interesting dishes, freshly cooked and well presented. This place is a lot of people’s local favourite so be sure to make a reservation. The Bindi Anari is a great dish, along with the Vegetable Jaipuri and the Tofu Makhani. It’s well worth the price and the staff are courteous, reserved and very friendly.

Next level. - Edit
Went back in January on a date night. Had to book way ahead because it was busy and so well deserved. The waiter recommended dished and we were not disappointed. Everything tasted incredible and there were just so many flavours. Curries with a mix of street food, lovely busy atmosphere and really pleasant staff.
