Reviews in Manchester

Really nice food, good location, nice atmosphere, good prices. I would recommend this place. It is self service as it is a buffet so the service that you get from the waitresses isn't really a problem. Truth be told every time i've been the waitresses on the whole haven't been the best at all and it's been a case of they show you to a table, take your drink orders, clear your plates, all without a hint of a smile on the whole. When your at a buffet it doesn't really matter but if the waitresses where a bit nicer it would help. In saying that i would still return and would recommend it if you want a nice buffet meal in a nice clean restaurant.

Went here with a friend on a Wednesday evening not being able to find anywhere decent to eat in Stockport. Not having eaten here before didn't know what to expect. We were very impressed. It was brilliant. We went between 5 - 7.30pm and had the £7 special starter and main course. There must have been at least 15 starters and 12 - 15 main course - what we had was brilliant. We will certainly be going there again - in fact next Tuesday. This place deserves to be packed !!!

6 of us went on the recommendation of reviews on this site.. The place is an excellent location for an evening out with friends. the food is fantastic , with a wide choice to suit all tastes the wine list is extensive . Nothing is too much trouble for the staff .. Good night out guaranteed...

A great place to eat in Stockport, kids no problem to them, well done.

Great choice of starters and wonderful choice of main course for meat eaters. The vegetarian and fish dishes are limited only 2 of each. Meat dishes are good but hot vegetarian dishes are tasteless. However if you are vegetarian you had mix 2 or 3 starters with the special vegetarian rice which is a nice combination. You can bring your own wine or beer which is great - they do not have a license.

Stunning Restaurant! Inside and out! Amazing food! The service was brilliant! The atmosphere is amazing and very authentic. Prices are reasonable! I seriously love this restaurant. It get's very busy at the weekends now. This is probably one of the best restaurants in Bolton.

Great place to go for a fantastic food, ambience and service, especially different and much nicer to the "normal" Rusholme curry-houses! Definitely recommended!

I often eat at San Carlo when in Manchester and in my opinion it's the best Italian restaurant in Manchester. There is a huge choice of dishes on the menu along with a daily changing specials board incorporating a large choice of daily seafood selections. The standard of food is second to none and I love the 'trio de pasta' for 2, where the chef chooses which 3 you get. Great cocktails, wine (although quite pricey) and service too. Have also eaten at the one in Birmingham which is just as good. It's a shame there are no Italian restaurants of this standard in Liverpool. I just have one question..........please, please would open one in Liverpool before City of Culture 2008 and all the suitable buildings get snapped up?

I'm always eating out at restaurants and love trying new places. This is possibly the best restaurant I have ever been to in terms of the whole experience. The food is amazing and the service is second to none. In truth the restaurant it tiny but the atmosphere is so amazing. I think it's size and quaintness that makes it so amazing. Seriously can not wait to go back. I've been telling m family and work colleagues about this place all week. Looking forward to going again soon.

Fast becoming our favourite restaurant in the city. Excellent food, standard as good as the Lime Tree but with a more exciting menu and better value. Service, whilst friendly, could have been quicker and waiter more knowledgeable re menu and wines.

I've been to quite a few restaurants that say they serve Spanish food, only to find an English owner/chef that likes to holiday on the Costa del sol 2 weeks a year and whose food is a poor copy of Spanish Tapas, El Rincon is the real thing, fantastic food professional staff and reasonable prices. The only other restaurant I'd recommend is casa las tapas, retiro st, Oldham

Very good Loved it alot every one should eat there the waiter were very nice

Visited the English Lounge after some recommendation from friends, it was a Friday Night, prior to a visit to the local pictures, decided to first read other customers feed-back, after hearing about some good reviews about it on Sugarvine. Was not disappointed had an excellent evening. Was greeted by very friendly waitresses and shown to our seat which was just by the stairs, had a great view out to passing trams. Was spoilt for choice when we saw the menu. After recommendation from the waitress went for the Chicken and Pasta, due to the fact that I knew I would want dips and sweets at cinema. All meals were very tasty and well presented. Sadly had no room left for desserts but looked very good. Will definitely visit again / shame as the film was a total let-down.

Went last night for a meal for my Birthday. I had the rare beef and horseradish salad for starter. The missus had roasted courgettes. Both were superb. Main courses were the Battered Cod and Duck Breast. If only chip shops could serve cod like that I would never need to go to a restaurant again. The overall experience was top-drawer. Well worth a visit.

What has happened to Piccadilly gardens. Visited this once dangerous location of Manchester to find it completely transformed. What is more Barburrito (under the big red building) is a brilliant restaurant. Great, fresh Mexican food for under £5, terrific service and a pleasant enough environment. I would recommend the corn tacos with grilled steak!! What is more two shops up from Barburrito is a place called Manna. Dropped off my mother in law there, who fitted in nicely with that crowd!

We have been going to the "Jai" for over 7 years now (ever since getting out of London) either for takeaways or to eat in. The food is without doubt the best Indian food we have ever had. You must try the Lamb Pasanda - to die for. We have introduced friends, relatives and even mother-in-laws to the delights of the Jai, and we are now requested to transport Jai takeaways all over the country when we go to see them. If you haven't already - go try it - you will love it.

I went here for my birthday last July after reading excellent reviews. The dishes received were of a very good standard, and the menu was extensive. We received an attentive, individual service and as my partner and I were having a meal on a special occasion, we felt that the ambience was superb. Definitely worth a visit

Absolutely fantastic. I love picollinos and always though restaurant wouldn't live up to its sister restaurant- I was very wrong as its actually much better! x X x
