Reviews in Manchester

I've been off work for two weeks over Easter and by week two a little bored - myself and the missus are used to eating in Chinatown so I thought I'd check out some of the £4.50 dinner specials round Chinatown - all were good but China City won it for me. Portions were good especially the main course and a really good choice of starters and main course. My first time at China City and next on our night time visit to Chinatown. One draw back on all -can't wait for 2007 and non-smoking!

I had a dream that I was managing a new mall being built in Burlington Iowa and the only place that stood out in the mall was Giovannis Restaurant and Nightclub which everyone in town was waiting for the opening. I thought it might hold significance so posted it here.

The food is amazing, lovely for a nice relaxing evening. The last few time we have been it has been understaffed, both at the bar and serving the food. Last time we had to wait one hour for our Sunday Lunch. That said I would still go back.

One of the best places in Manchester for lunch and breakfast. Logical prices, excellent food and outstanding quality, just like you are in Greece. The decor could be more sophisticated if they really want to add that extra Mediterranean charm!

Had the most marvellous meal here at the start of April. The food was the best I have ever tasted (we had the Armenian Banquet) and was very reasonably priced to boot, as was the Turkish wine which we enjoyed. The owner and his Wife were the perfect hosts and could not have done more for us. The surroundings were comfortable and interesting! You cannot miss out on this place - try for yourself - we will be going back very soon

Excellent meal and service at a reasonable price. Recommend the six course taster menu as this shows the range and quality of the food (pick the sweets for the final instead of the cheese)

I visited stock on one of the jazz night on Friday after being recommended by a friend. I must say this was the best dining experience I have ever had. The staff were very warm welcoming. Their interesting style of describing specials of the day and waiters knowledge about the food and wine was impressive. I must say they know how to make someone? special day very special.

Stumbled on Barburrito by accident, as I was cutting through the gardens. Drawn to it by the queues which stretched out of the doors (admittedly it was Friday lunchtime) but an unusual site nonetheless, I am not a huge fan of the Mexican fare usually served up in this country - but I have to say Barburrito seem to have got most things right. My chicken burrito, stuffed with moist, succulent, flame grilled chicken and a Smokey, spicy salsa was washed down nicely by a bottle of mex beer. All this and a side of tortilla chips for around £6.00. A great find and I will be back !

Good food - Good service - Reasonable price - Addictive YES - Visited this place many times never had a bad meal. Only problem Alan needs to change his shirt & tie, pink is not is best colour! Regards Fiona

Went to celebrate father in laws birthday. Had 4 children with me ranging from 1yr to 11yr.We were made to feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely visit again

I haven't been to many Chinese restaurants but out of the ones that I have been to, this is the best one. Everything about it was superb. The quality of the food, the friendliness of the staff and the restaurant environment were first rate. I could not afford to go regularly but I will go when I can. Fantastic!

Recently went for lunch. I had the Peruvian Cerviches for starters which was excellent and the Churrasco De Lomo for main which though very good I found slightly disappointing possibly because my expectations were so high. Very good service, an excellent (South American) wine list and nice ambience.

Had a meal on the Thursday which was really good and then we went on the Saturday for drinks - bar service excellent and lots of cocktail choices! great all round

Wow! Much needed new addition to this area. Doing what Italian restaurants do best, simple dishes, great ambience, great prices, great wine, and all in stylish surroundings. Somewhat 'Piccolinoesque', but definitely right to keep it as a Restaurant first and foremost instead of another Canal Street bar food joint. Really impressed, defo worth a try.

What can i say other than this is a little jem of a place! Outstanding food, great wine & fabulous service - especially the waiter - he was attentive & hilarious! All should attend at least once a month!

Having been on a mission to find a good steak house (only ever found them in America), I booked a table based on the reviews I had read. The menu is quite extensive and we decided to order the beef fillet with fat chips and a side dish of green beans and tomatoes. We were not disappointed. The steak was so tender you could have used a spoon to cut it, and the meat melted in your mouth. The meal was absolutely superb and so was the red wine our waiter recommended. Shame we did not have room left for desserts - oh well there is always the next time!! "We will be back"!!

After several further visits to this great curry restaurant, I have to continue to give it the thumbs up. WITHOUT DOUBT the best in Tameside, v busy on each time we have visited (w/end) but always got in because it? quite a big place. Highly recommended

A gem in the heart of Gatley! Great place for coffee and a quick sandwich during the day, also an impressive range of breads which they make on the premises, coupled with a good deli counter and a really fabtastic selection of wines which are a cut above the usual off-licence/supermarket fare. All this with Eduardo's great service and friendly smile.
