Reviews in Eccles

(22 Feb 09) Can't believe there hasn't been a review for this restaurant since 2005! We visited Blacksticks (Monton) on a Sunday afternoon, first impressions being.. good atmosphere, very busy but in no way chaotic. The staff were attentive, excellent food, good value for money Sunday lunch menu which also doubles up as the Early Bird menu (£13 2 courses, £16 3 courses). The chicken liver parfait was excellent so was the cod loin topped with welsh rarebit. We will definitely be returning soon to road test the "A la Carte".

i think that the food was amazing and mouth watering and is very well standard and it is a experience to go to it is better to go on quite day when it not busy.

I THINK THAT THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS AND OUTSTANDING AND HOW THAY HAVE DONE IT UP IT LOOK AMAZING AND IT IS A EXPERIENCE TO GO TO.

Best Kebabs in eccles after 1.00am. They do the trick!!!!!

THE BEST PLACE IN THE WORLD DEFFOOOOO I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!

We've been going to the Eastern on and off for about 5 years and it hasn't changed much. The food is brilliant and the chaps working there are so nice. The chef cooks the food there and then, there's not pre-made sauces or anything. A lot of Indian restaurants that I've been to simply put cream into hotter dishes to make it a bit milder, but here, you get the sauce you want, without the kick - if that's how you want it. My other half likes really hot dishes and they have no problem sorting that out either. If it's not on the menu, you just need to ask, they really are great. It's really reasonably priced and easy to get to/from with the tram pulling up pretty much outside. There's also a bus station across the road and black cabs outside - if you prefer to have a few drinks with your meal. I would definitely recommend this place without a shadow of a doubt - pretty sure it's my favourite Indian restaurant in the area......give it a try.

My partner and I went for a meal there on Friday night. We had one of the banquet choices. The food was outstanding and the service was superb. The design of the restaurant was excellent and certainly added to the experience we had. I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you are looking for somewhere special for a meal.

Dined at Pacifica for partner's 40th birthday. Pacifica catered for thirty guests. The venue and food were exceptional with excellent service. Will definitely be returning and apparently, after the feedback from our guests, so will they!

We went on Sunday 6 April, I was really looking forward to this experience after reading the reviews - shame it didn't live up to them. I loved the decor and the crockery, but all the dim sums were served on cold plates and made the food cold very quickly, the restaurant was cold - needed the heating on (so cold my partner put his coat on). The dim sums were some of the best I have had, but the main course with squid was too tough to eat. The manager apologized and offered drinks, but on the whole not an experience I intend to repeat.

Since being taken over by Crompton's, the food and service has improved ten-fold. Went for Mothers' Day and it was superb. Great food and excellent service means we'll definitely be going back.

I've been here twice and the food was poor both times. The first time I went, the service was terrible and disorganised, waiting over 45 mins for a starter, and half an hour for a bottle of wine to arrive. Decided to write it off as a one-off and went back for Sunday lunch recently. The service was better, but the food was way below standard. A huge shame.

I took my wife there for her birthday on SAT 16th FEB , what can i say. it was fantastic from start to finish. The food,the staff the atmosphere. We like to eat out at least 3-4 times a week and this has to be the best by far.If any-one likes to eat out like myself GO TO THE PACIFICA CANTONESE.You will not be let down. GREAT FOOD,GREAT PEOPLE AND GREAT VALUE FOR MONEY.

Fantastic! Went to Pacifica Cantonese on New Years Eve 07, had a great time, food was amazing, staff very friendly, much better than city centre Chinese restaurants. Highly recommended.

better than kfc for sure! and cheaper well recommended

Had a gorgeous meal at Pacifica Cantonese last night, good service, lovely decor. Everything was great. Only problem extremely noisy couldn't here ourselves speak.

The staff are excellent here and very aware of the needs of and accommodating for people with allergies. Also very patient with demanding people like ourselves. Topped off with excellent food, it's an ideal restaurant.

We do not want to appear a bore but everything really was outstanding. People with discerning taste will appreciate.

A really wonderful new restaurant, amazing food, incredibly warm & friendly staff. A modern take on oriental cuisine. Highly recommended.
