Reviews in Manchester

Well worth every penny....quality all round

myself & a friend went to this restaurant on Saturday evening, & we had a fantastic meal. My only regret was I had not been here sooner, seen it but never gone inside. If you like real food ,you will not be disappointed.

Nice place - been a few times over the years and brought lots of different people with me. Everyone enjoyed their Karims experience! Really nice staff, great authentic range of foods (not keen on the pasta but hey!), decent parking and a no frills nice experience. Well done Karim :)

i am a curry lover, from the day my husband took me to that place it has become my last bus stop. i highly recommend that you go there because without test there will be no testimony.

Always a favourite place to eat or just to pop in for a drink with friends.

Party of 6, visited on a busy Saturday night (25/11/06). Had not been to the Lime Tree for a couple of years as so many new restaurants to try in and around Manchester. Everything about the experience was fantastic and price very reasonable for the quality offered. Still better than just about all the newer places in the city, now resolved to visit again regularly!

A good Thai restaurant and a particularly good option if you live nearby and want an alternative to travelling to Manchester. No complaints. Good value for money.

A couple of months ago my boyfriend I were very hung over and so decided to have a Sunday roast at the Toby carvery. It wasn't the best! However this weekend we decided to give it another go and I have to say it was almost as good as my mothers! A big thumbs up to you, what an amazing improvement. We will be back soon

The food here is very nice fresh food served all the years?ive eaten here as been remarkable.

Bloody brilliant. My new local.

Just living down the road from this fine restaurant, I find myself less inclined to go to Rusholme as everything you would ever want from a curry house is contained within these walls. Ok, the decor may be a little dated, but for me and most, it adds to the experience and the ambience. Try the Korsani - my new favourite dish.

Chaophraya is firstly a fantastic looking building with typically Thai decor that brought memories of a visit to Thailand flooding back. The staff made my girlfriend and I very welcome and were super efficient from the start. We decided to share a mixed starter, although we could of chose 10 times over due to the array of dishes. For main course I had Sea bass and my girlfriend had a Thai green curry, both dishes were delicious. I would definitely recommend a visit to Chaophraya and I would probably have a set meal next time just so I could taste the varied meals. Overall an Outstanding dining experience consisting of great food, very good location and a high level of service which will not be beaten.

Me and my wife loved it even that I did not book in advance for Saturday night. they where pack out when arrived there but I waited only5-6min and help me find a seat to have me dinner,, even that it was very busy the service was excellent, I enjoyed my time there, food was perfect the way I like it the choices is unbelievable.

Since the new chef arrived we have partaken of the three course Sunday Lunch @ £9.95, it's the best value for money around! The choice of courses is brilliant with the Black Pudding to start, Rib Eye Steak, mains and Bread & Butter pudding particularly good. A hidden gem!!

Very good food but every time I've been there I always come away feeling like I've paid too much, no matter how good the food was, it's still just food.

We normally always eat out at Velvet with our friends as the food/service is consistently good, but we decided to have a change and meet at Taurus. I should point out that out of the four of us, it was only really me who had a bad experience, but both of my courses were a real disappointment considering the cost. The service was absolutely excellent, smiley and attentive and very welcoming, which was a real shame considering the standard of the food. I ordered soup for starters and bangers and mash for my main course. When the soup arrived, I had no problem with the size of the portion, as it was served with what looked like a full baguette of bread and plenty of butter, which is always a high point. Unfortunately, the soup itself was full of what looked like stringy bits of unappealing cabbage and was freezing cold. I have to say that my friends' starters looked far more appealing and they all praised them highly, so I hoped my main would be better. I was very shocked when it arrived and I discovered my potato was of the packet variety and was like plastic in terms of taste and consistency. The gravy was equally tasteless and the sausage was nothing to write home about. In terms of presentation, I can only describe it as a congealed heap. It was also topped with what looked like parsnip shavings and was a far cry from my husband's succulent looking steak. I'm not usually picky about my food and will usually eat anything if hungry enough, but this is the first meal I have had anywhere where I found it completely inedible. Thankfully, my friends' fillet steaks looked fabulous and I'm told they were. The wine we had was reasonably priced and enjoyable and the atmosphere was nice for drinks, but I will not be eating here again.

Having visited Akbars in Leeds we were not quite sure whether to go here or not, Leeds being very busy, noisy, full and a long wait for food. Anyway we took the plunge and were really glad we did. The setting is fabulous and so is the decor, although by the time the back wall had changed from white lighting to deep red we could hardly see, especially as the menus are on black background. However we finally managed to pick what we wanted off the very interesting menu and took in the atmosphere. We had gone around 6pm on a Sunday night and the place was getting very busy. We had a fabulous meal with very attentive staff at all times. Only disappointment was that there was only bottled beer for sale and no draught but it didn't spoil what was a lovely meal. Cost is very reasonable as well. Hoping to go back within the next couple of weeks.
