Reviews in Manchester

I have been too many restaurants in my time, and hadn? found an outstanding one till I went to Croma, best food ever; it? the highlight of a trip to Manchester!!

I think smiths is one of the best restaurants we have ever been to! It has great food and don? forget the wine!! It also has lively atmosphere and the service is outstanding!

What a lovely place - excellent Meze - better than the Real Greek (supposedly the best Greek Restaurant in London!). Particularly enjoyed the Kotopolo and Halloumi. Staff are friendly and prices reasonable. Also liked the bar where you can have a relaxed drink before or after your meal.

My boyfriend and I love this place. Very cool and laid back. The food is fabulous with a great wine list. Definitely my favourite place to eat.

Modern interior, giving the restaurant a trendy urban feel. Friendly, efficient service, the waiter we had was capable of remembering the food order for starters and mains for a table of 10 without the need to write it down and the food arrived and everyone got exactly what they ordered. I was impressed! The food was tasty - nicely prepared. Open till late a good place for a curry.

Recommended to this restaurant by a friend I thought I would try it for my sons birthday party, I was outstanded with the service we received, I phoned to book the table and although I could not get the time I wanted I was offered a close alternative, I was also offered a free cake by the party organiser and she said she would decorate the table free of charge. I thought this would just mean balloons but in fact the table was decorated with balloons, banners, party poppers and place-settings, as well as modelling balloons for the children. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive and we even had a magician come to see our table and perform, this was all arranged by the restaurant! Although the food was not perfect we thoroughly enjoyed the night, at the end of the meal the whole restaurant staff came to our table with our free cake and sang a rousing birthday rap, it was a very enjoyable evening and I plan on going back to TGI's for every birthday my family have now!

Overall very impressed with the Happy Seasons, it's easy to dine like a King and not break the bank here. Wine list is mainly New World with a couple of French notes; we had an Aussie Chardonnay, which was excellent and priced at a measly £11! We've done a few restaurants round China town - I wouldn't say the Happy Seasons is the place to go for that romantic meal but after saying that some of the best food we've tasted yet - well done! :)

I have eaten at Byzantia twice now with my husband. Both times the food has been amazing! I love healthy foods and can definitely recommend the great selection of fish dishes (especially the Sea Bass). I can't seem to get my husband to try anything other than the Rack of Lamb which he's had both times and just loves!! There's also a great bar to chill out in afterwards too! Try a cocktail, you won't be disappointed!

Mainly carvery is offered which is cheap a small alternative menu is offered that is expensive. Food cheap and okay drinks not too pricey either. All in all good value for money

First off - lets start with location - its poor - entrance is within a carpark, plastic flowers surround the dining area, interior is bright with strange lighting - but somehow it works - its brilliantly funny - the food is SENSATIONAL - staff are great and packed - and rightly so - i'll be going back!

The tables are very closely packed in, the decoration is tacky in the extreme and the music ranges from rock and roll to bollywood, but for some reason we just love it.

Excellent restaurant, it is small but this makes it 'cosy'. Food is excellent, good choice of 'Specials'.

Excellent food, either your usual Italian pizza pasta or some excellent Italian meals that you wouldn't expect. Very friendly and helpful staff and great atmosphere. Small and friendly restaurant. Be warned though, no smoking restaurant!!!

One of the best

One of those restaurants which you can return to time and time again knowing that the same high standards will be maintained

This is a lovely little restaurant, with friendly staff and a delicious menu.... the fish dishes are particularly good

I went there with a group of people and it was simply fantastic. We were 8 and the staff couldn't have been more patient and nice. Food was simply to die for. Seafood soup (with prawns and mussels) was simply spectacular. The prawn crackers that floated through our tables all along were served with a dip that was surprisingly addictive (we kept asking the waiter for more!). Veggies with rice noodles took a bit longer to arrive but were worth the wait. Fish was very aromatic but a bit overpriced. In general a wonderful dining experience. One thing could be improved: the selection of wines.

Really enjoyed the whole experience.
