Reviews in Manchester

I took my mother here recently for her birthday on the special 3-course deal. We had the most wonderful evening and the food was very tasty. I have lived around Didsbury all my life and never ventured down the cobbles but now I wish I had! The staff were lovely, the chef's very professional in their open kitchen and the restaurant itself was a lovely little hidden gem! I have family visiting me very soon and I can't wait to show them this place. Well done No.4!

Not been to the John Gilbert before but friend told me about it.Great atmosphere on a Fri/Sat (one of the Corrie lot was in) had a meal with family Great Sunday Carvery making it a must for Mothers Day as getting booked up.

we've been regulars for 10 years and have never found a Nepalese/Indian restaurant better than this, raj and niel welcome you as if you were family and the food caters for every ones palet the gurkali chicken is the tastiest curry in Manchester ,forget rusholme get in the gurka you'll love it ...

what a great place to go and have a great meal. just to inform you, i found out that if you leave a tip for the staff, the staff actually only receive a £3 tip at the end of each night and the rest of the money goes to the management, so DON'T leave a tip!!!!! the lady running front of house seems to be a nice person when serving you, i overheard her speaking to a member of staff VERY NASTILY!!!

this place has good food but thats it the staff rude they charge for drinks you have'nt had we booked a table for a birthday party witch they filled because they were busy but when there not busy there over u like a cheap suit so if your thinking of going just turn up because your pre book wont count there's a better buffet restaurant around the corner

visited Zaika last night for my birthday. we were warmly greeted at the door and our cats were taken to be stored in a safe place. we were shown to the entrance lounge where we ere provided with menus and our drinks order taken the vegetarian range was limited but they were able to make dishes that were not on the menu at my request - which i think is a good sign at an eating establishment for starters we had veg samosas and paneer tikka - samosas were in the filo pastry type of pastry and was light and crispy and the paneer was a wonderful texture and really tasty our mains were also delicious - the tandoori roti was better than the plain naan- thinner and crispier great service, everything was well presented- the decor was great and there were several sections to the restaurant, whereby should you want to have private dining facilities or a small party then you could so - a first for Indian restaurants in Manchester All in all I had a very enjoyable meal to celebrate my birthday

San Carlo Manchester excellent Veal Milanese but why oh why are the tables so close together 34 waist and i couldn't squeeze through.

Sorry to be negative about this restaurant, and this is the first time for me, but I have to say that I feel this place is a complete rip off. When we arrived, the staff were very attentive, however they must have a pretty short span of attention. Once we were seated at 8 pm and had ordered, the food arrived and I must say we all were pretty non-plussed by the standard. We had chosen the more expensive of the two 'banquets'. This began with a scallop dish served with angel hair noodles which were swimming with a flavoured oil which totally masked the taste of the scallop. The next course was lobster which was overcooked and again the sauce was far too highly flavoured and the lobster may as well have been cod! The main courses were forgettable and small - the four of us left still peckish. While we were eating our mains and sweets, the staff were wheeling in and out tables and we felt very unwelcome. The bill exceeded £300 (we did have a fair few drinks) for four people and we left wishing we had gone elsewhere. I know this restaurant is frequented by footballers and Corrie celebs. They must have small brains and big wallets!

This restaurant is terrible, the food was cold, burnt and completely different to what was described. We went for the 5 tapas for 11.95 and didn't finish one dish. I was really disappointed as this was my first tapas experience. Never go here.

The delivery was speedy, however food wasn't hot enough and lacking flavour.

We had our recent Xmas do here and we had a really good time. Good service, good food, good value.

been coming to this place for years and the lunchtime menu is a must... great staff and always a pleasure to eat here...

This restaurant was no were near as nice as the blackladd bukstones road shaw nr oldham ; we have visited lots of restaurants ,and we put the blackladd as number one. Highly recommend. You will not be disappointed. Big thanks to the wonderful chef and staff. Yours thankfully mr peter jones

excellent sunday lunch staff always smiling which makes a change from some pubs in worsley

I have been to this restaurant many times and find the food to be lovely and the service to be excellent. I have recommended it to many friends and work colleagues. The waiters are experienced and good fun and spend the evening ensuring you have a nice time. I have never heard a bad review from anyone who has been there. It will continue to be my favourite place to dine out.
