have been to this taverna 3 times now took my daughter for the 1st time last night, she absolutely loved it, the food is fantastic the service even better nothing is too much trouble, and even when we asked for some hummus to take home ( this is delicious) it was accompanied with some warm pitta . very reasonably priced very friendly and relaxed atmosphere, this may have just knocked curry mile of the top of our favourites list.

I visited Thai Banana last night (5th November 2009) and thought it was the worst meal I had had out in a long time. My partner and I ordered the veggie tempura to start which was foul; none of the vegetables were fresh (on examination they looked like frozen veg from a freezer store) and the batter was very low quality. Our mains were equally poor; my Pad Thai tofu dish arrived with only two piece of tofu in it so I had to send it back. The waitress struggled to understand what I was saying, and the woman who appeared to be the manager on duty was completely disinterested. The food was brought back a second time with the missing tofu, although this time I was left with no fork. Asking for another fork took time, and again the manager was rude and unpleasant (she even passed cutlery to us holding the ends destined to go into our mouths - no Health and Safety training there). At the end of the meal (we left the majority of the food) I informed the manager how bad it had been and she just walked off. When we left I went and spoke to her about the service and food, yet once again she walked away and informed me she didn't care. I was quite appalled by how rude the service was - it's been a long, long time since I've experienced anything like it. My recommendation, don't waste your money here.

The best Greek food in Manchester and out of Greece and Cyprus

Rule 1. Never judge a book by its cover. The surroundings may not be as upmarket as other town centre restaurants, but to be honest when your getting food as good as this it really doesn't matter. Took a gamble and visited as a family birthday/Christmas present and even the damn veggies where oooiinngg and arrring from start to finish. Service was excellent and nothing too much trouble, a special request for chunky chips (which where delicious by the way) no problem. Having been let down in the past by overpriced restaurants with great surroundings and average food, Kosmos is a welcome change. Would recommend to anyone who appreciates great food. Dec 2008

I cant get enough of this place, i would walk past regularly and couldn't work out why it was forever busy. I just had to try it and couldn't believe how good it was, quite a limited menu, but it included food from Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand and China. Top quality and great prices!

love Greece and love Greek food and this restaurant serves the best authentic Greek food this side of Athens

I live next to china town, but I come here for asian food. Why? A big bowl of steaming spicy noodles for a fiver, unlimited quantities of green tea for 95p, a decent starters menu and now an excellent albeit small menu of deserts. Particularly recommend the banana and ginger ice cream. What more can I say.

Great little place. Like a small-scale Wagamama's. I went for the Thai red curry which had loads of flavour and just the right amount of kick. Some of the seafood was a little chewy though. Meal, plus starters and drinks for four came to £36. I don't think you can get much better for the money. Highly recommended.

having used kosmos now 6 times for parties of up to 16 on Saturday nights i must say the service and food is out of this world the group i take each time insist on going back each time for the food the value for money is good the house wine good and the brandy when paying always goes down well well done to all

fab food and service. cant wait to revisit.

I have been on a couple of occasions, always as part of a group on a quieter evening. The staff coped OK, to be fair very few places enjoy serving a reasonable sized group. We always opt for a eze - and always forget the kebabs and moussaka that come out at the end. Why? because usually the food is plentiful & we are all stuffed long before. Food is tasty, reasonably authentic & we usually have a great time - I would recommend it.

Was taken here on a trip to visit some friends in Manchester. It looks pretty understated and authentic what with the bench style seating. The service is quick and the food is sooo good. I had Thai green curry, twas yummy! Plus it's pretty cheap so you won't be broke after. One other thing- the chicken is halal so it suits Muslims like myself! Weeeee!

Fantastic. The best Greek Taverna! We are from Nottingham and we will be returning to Manchester soon. And when we do, KOSMOS is on our meal list. BEAUTIFUL soup and vegetables and lovely wheat pilaf. good strong metaxa 5 star is a must! i thoroughly recommend! we had the early doors menu. try it!

Well, what can be said? I was out for a meal one Friday evening in this authentic and captivating noodle bar. Firstly, me and my friend were greeted warmly and enthusiastically by a female who i assume was the owner. Starters were ordered and brought out very efficiently and presented wonderfully. Needless to say, said starters were delicious. The main courses were also perfect and brought out to my place by a beautiful, keen waitress! The only draw back was a lack of dessert menu, but I definitely left a happy man.

Hay mummy!! This is stefanos! Thought i would add my own little recommendation! i love greek food!! and i love you! love your baby boy stefanos xx

im addicted 2 this place!

Easily our favourite haunt and one we have been visiting for over 15 years. The food doesn't excite really but offers comfort. It is authentic without any pretension. Don't expect plush decor, just enjoy the genuine hospitality and the corny old jokes of the waiters.

We went we saw we were conquered, great for lunch or in the evening. Nice waitress
