Reviews in Manchester

Very friendly and excellent food. We have been several times and have also arranged important family occasions there. The specials board is always interesting the fillet steak in a special red wine and tomato sauce is outstanding.

I hate food courts. No, i loathe food courts. The smell, the constant noise, the crappy unappealing food. Yet every time i go into a shopping centre I end up eating in one of these bloody things as they are fast, cheap and convenient. However last week my life was been transformed (small exaggeration perhaps), when I stumbled across a small place called barburrito. Located in the Trafford Centre - (I think this is a new restaurant) - they sell great, reasonably priced fast food in a great environment. I had a burrito as big as my head, stuffed with shredded beef and spicy salsa, cheese, sour cream and lots of other stuff with a refill drink for £6. This is the best dining experience I have had for some time and restores my faith in fast food. Bomb Mcdonalds, set fire to Subway, trash KFC (please note none of these are subliminal requests, more a statement of dissatisfaction). In Barburrito there is finally a fast, tasty, healthy and good value alternative.

I worked there for four months three years ago. They paid me £3.80 per hour and we were not allowed to take the tips we earnt. I was called "fat girl" by the restaurant owner. The kitchen condition was the worst I've ever seen. Sweet sour chicken was placed in dirty basket on the floor and the duck sauce was placed in disgusting bottles. The workers were treated like dirt and most of them are illegal immigrants.

I worked at Buffet city for 4 months in 2004. They paid me £3.80 per hour and they kept any tips that were earnt. Also the standard and hygiene of the restaurant kitchen was awful. I struggle to believe that they washed the kitchen more than once a week. As well as this the workers were treated like dirt.

We visited the lovely chic NEW EastzEast on the riverbank just along from the Lowry Hotel. Big tip for the year here, this place will be the main competition for Akbars.Definately during the summer when you will be able to use the Riverside Bar. Food.. excellent as per the other branch. Service.. excellent as per. Price.. just right. prediction....will be in the top ten by July

Just returned from our first visit - definitely won't be our last!!!! Fantastic food/great value/lovely staff/good atmosphere/children welcome. If you haven't tried a trip here then you don't know what you're missing!!!

anything but a Turkish delight, cheap poorly prepared food at top prices. after trying a selection of dishes , they all where very bland and tasteless. and the lamb shish undercooked. very poor indeed and ive tried most restaurants and take aways in Manchester. at least they serve you with a big smile before they over charge you. keep up the poor work or go back to turkey for some cooking lessons.

Introduced to the Third Eye by our friends Rand and Carole. My wife and I usually try the Makhan Chicken and a Chili Chicken, washed down with a couple of large bottles of Kathmandu beer. The two dishes work well together. The food has always tasted fresh and perfectly cooked. The service is excellent. When we first walked into the place I said that it had the wonderful aroma of the Rajdoot in Manchester. I then found that the original Chef had worked at the Rajdoot. As the Rajdoot was always my favourite restaurant for Makhan Chicken I then ordered the dish and was pleasantly surprised. As Didsbury is closer than the Central Manchester and parking is easier we now eat at the Original Third Eye I have no connections with the establishment other than enjoying the food.

As a regular takeaway customer of many years i can now say that with the arrivalof new partner Mr Khan & current longstanding ownerBosh the latest menus are superb.With friendly staff and new contemporary decor this is THE place for a great curry nite.

Mmmmmm mmmmmmmm mmmmmm is all i can say! The food here is outstanding especially the SEXY GARLIC MUSHROOMS!!! 10/10 for food. Jus a shame the service on the bar isnt as good as those in the kitchen, had to wait quite a while each time for a drink and its sooo hot in there! and the same for desserts - i definitely had room for it after waiting so long, but the chocolate fudge cake was so moorish.. heavenly! it made up for it, definitely try this place; EVERYONE!!

Very modern inside, food really tasty, great place to eat and relax with friends. i love the way they stack the chunky chips & the steak is very good.

Very large inside nice decor with typical menu which you get what you pay for nice for everyday meal but not for something different or special occasion.

Very traditional village pub serving good quality food. Recommended.

I had my first ever indian her and it was very nice although a little cramped, I would also visit the takeaway owned by the same people on market street called Shimla.

Wasn't very impressed with the food here although the service was good the food was lacking something. Not very nice interior either.

Superb food and friendly staff,better than ever since the arrival of new partner and host Mr khan.With BOSH and the lads you are in for a great nite!

I usually get take out from here it is the best Chinese around. I have fillet steak in ok sauce with egg fried rice, they are quick and will do anything that you want that is not on the menu, they have a very friendly team there which is why they come top on my list.

We went to Sweet Mandarin for Christmas Eve and it was a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend this place, even though it is off the beaten track. We went for the banquet and I think it was the best hot and sour soup I have ever tasted. Actually, it was the best Chinese we had in a long time. We loved the aromatic crispy duck which was just crispy and chewy enough without being dry. In particular, I would recommend the Lily Kwok's curry. Its quite a different curry from the Indian curries. This one is creamy and mild, very flavoursome and unique to Sweet Mandarin. I will be coming back in the New Year. Thanks for taking the stress out of Christmas.
