Reviews in Manchester

I had one heck of a great meal at this fantastic restaurant the other week. The sushi/sashimi platter was excellent, and the Beef Teriyaki was supreme. I shall definitely be visiting again, and hope to do so regularly.

What a little gem this is. The Veggie and Vegan selection is fantastic and created by people who know how to be creative with the ingredients. It's worth a trip to Wigan simply to pop in.

I went to San Carlo on Thursday for a late lunch with a friend. I have been very satisfied by the quality of the food. I had lobster which was fresh and prepared to perfection. First, I was a bit unconfident to order seafood because of a bad experience in another well known restaurant few months ago but I saw the waiter bring a lobster to the table next to us and it seemed really nice. Indeed, it was delicious! Finally, I have found a restaurant that can offer good value for money and a good service.

This place is a hidden gem. I have dined here a few times, and each time the food has been spot on. My girlfriends and I had Sunday lunch today. All ingredients were fresh, home cooked and delicious. A cut above many places where we have dined, and definitely the best in the local area. The service was great and with the air con now in place we had a superb time. Will be back again soon.

Hi Luvs, taking the lads to Taybarns with it being all you can eat they fill their self up for the day

Great food relaxing ambience friendly staff. I am regular now

they have new chef and the food is not the same

Giorgios is simply super! I went for a meal out with my nan and we we're so impressed! The waiter 'Guiseppe' was so on the ball and his wit was magical. Such a lovely man, nice manners, tall and true Italian 'dark'. His eyes were full of the passion of the med and his skin a lovely sun ripened olive. I loved his deep gravelly accent. it made the food taste good. mike

Very disappointing on our last visit we have eaten here before and enjoyed it however on our last visit the service was appalling. the waiter had virtually no knowledge of the menu and kept having to leave to ask questions in the kitchen. When the meal did come the veg was different from what was ordered and sauces were no served at all. the food was mediocre all in all I would NOT recommend

We have been going to Mint Bar for our Full English Breakfasts on Saturdays for some time now as we were guaranteed great quality ingredients, a real treat. Unfortunately not so on our last couple of visits, along with the name change there appears to have been a change of stockist also. Poor quality and extremely salty bacon, cheap sausage and black pudding means we wont be returning, such a shame that it appears that profits based on low quality ingredients have replaced what was a brilliant brekkie!

Hi john. cant find your web site to put comments on about the wedding meal you did for arron &gemms wedding on the 25 june. the service was excellent and very professional carried out every one as commented on how much they enjoyed the meal and service that you provided many thanks mick& chris would recommend you to anyone excellent service

food is lovely! and great to sit outside and enjoy the sun

I pass this restaurant daily. Never thought it would be any good. What a narna I am. Tried it on Saturday with friends. It's fantastic. The Rice Bowl In Manchester Doesn't come anywhere near it. Parking isn't any problem. I know where I will eat Chinese again.

Looking forward to opening of new bar and restaurant. Just what is needed.

Red Hot World Buffet has only been open a month or so in Manchester but is already attracting queues of customers from lunchtime right through to the evening. With branches in Leeds, Liverpool and Nottingham among others it is not too difficult to see what all the fuss is about. Allegedly the Manchester branch has over 300 dishes on its buffet menu in a self serve restaurant which can seat up to 350 people. Our lunchtime visit, after a short wait was rewarded with a good percentage of those 300 dishes to choose from and the hope that we would have the appetite to match! The buffet is divided into oriental, tex mex, Indian, Italian and British - disappointingly we couldn't find the advertised Mediterranean or Thai sections. However with my plate full to the edges with deep fried scallops, calamari, vegetable spring rolls, spare ribs and noodles the disappointment was short lived. The next hour or so became a blur of revisits to the buffet - char grilled corn on the cob, lemon chicken, lamb rogan josh, bombay potatoes, daal. For less than £30 for two including a bottle of crisp Chilean Sauvignon Blanc Red Hot's lunchtime menu cannot be recommended highly enough. It's more expensive in the evening and no doubt the queues are even longer.

DO NOT EAT HERE. The place has a nice enough ambience but the staff do not observe basic hygiene practises. The food is average and overpriced, and the staff were almost entirely unprofessional.

I went recently for lunch on a Saturday. The food was delicious and very good value at £13.95 for 3 courses

the meal we had at the new emperor was fantastic the best Chinese meal we have ever had
