About Greenbank Balti
Greenbank Balti is a Bangladeshi restaurant at 178 Chester Rd in Northwich, founded in 2001. In 2011, readers of a local newspaper voted it best curry house in the area. The menu covers balti and tandoori dishes, with tikka rezala and keema nan alongside, and a small selection of English meals sits next to the Indian menu. Poppadoms, onion bhajis and onion chutney are served. The kitchen is open, so you can watch food being made while you wait for your order. The restaurant is walk-in, and orders can be placed over the counter. The chef will also accommodate a dish that is not listed on the menu.

Customer Review Summary
Most reviewers praise the flavour of the curries, calling the food tasty, delicious, and consistently good across a wide variety of dishes, with several saying it arrived hot, well packed, and ready at the stated time. Lamb tikka rezala is called good tasting, though one reviewer found the lamb a bit tough and rated the keema nan and mushroom rice only OK. Friendly staff and good value come up close behind, and one family drives several miles to collect their order. One diner welcomes the free poppadoms or onion bhajis with an order, while another found the poppadoms soft and reheated, the onion chutney chemical tasting, and the king prawn tandoori inedible with a strange colour. Another reported burnt poppadoms and lukewarm food after a very late delivery, and one devoted curry eater admits orders are sometimes wrong or late, though the wrong dish was gorgeous too. One first time caller asked for a dish not on the menu, and the chef said no problem.

“First order from Greenbank Balti. Called in on spec and ordered over the counter. Asked for a dish that wasn't listed on the menu, chef said no problem. Very happy with the food. Both meals were really good. Lot's of flavour. Will go back for sure.”

“I've been eating curries for a long time. This takeaway is a gem. I worked in Surrey for 5 years and I tried lots of takeaways and restaurants none of which were as good as this takeaway. They sometimes get the order wrong and it can sometimes be delivered late. But even when they get the order wrong the wrong dish is gorgeous too. A cracking takeaway..I wish they'd open a restaurant!”

“Always enjoy the food from here everytime and tonight was no exception. They have an open kitchen so you can see the food being made if you're waiting for your order. It's a small independent business worth trying. They have a small selection of English meals too. Staff are friendly and helpful. You can get free popadoms or onion bhajis when you spend £12 aswell which is great. Food can be collected yourself or they can deliver local. Highly recommend and I will return.”
