Yum yum yum - great menu catering for all requirements - whether you're in a hurry or not. Great selection, nice interior, went for Sunday breakfast

No longer the best kept secret in town. The plaudits are totally justified. I have eaten here since it opened and the quality remains the same. The most authentic thai restaurant by miles eg pad thai served with the proper accompaniments and the vermicelli noodles so heavenly. The staff are fantastic. Favourite dishes ( difficult to choose a few! ) , sweet corn cakes, crispy coriander beef, deep fried scallops, duck salad,chicken pad thai, beef in garlic and pepper, pork in red curry soup with noodles.THE BEST RESTAURANT WITHOUT A DOUBT.

I was looking for somewhere to fulfill my need for spice that also looked after the tame veggie! Mission accomplished! We were accompanied down Oldham Street by riot police (that's another story though) and had to ring the bell to get in. That was the easy bit of the evening - deciding on what to eat really perplexed me - it all sounded so good on the menu. Although it was Saturday night, we were early & managed to get a £12.95 deal for starter, main course and accompaniment. We were a party of five, but all managed to find something different, which is a good sign on a limited fixed choice menu. Yup, even tame veggie. The food was delicious, spicy and subtle at the same time. I had a Nyonya lime curry with chicken... oh no, my mouth's watering again at the memory. Only one of us managed a dessert which was an amazing looking green thing with ice cream. It definitely tasted better than it looked! There's a small but interesting selection of wines & beers, including Hanoi & Beer Lao. That was our first visit, but not the last.

We went to celebrate my wifes 40th birthday to Zouk last saturday and what can i say about this place?! Starters delicious, main course fabulous, pudding out of this world, service excellent.... Definitely the best Indian I've ever been to!!!!!

Simply fantastic. We have been in Japanese restaurants all over south and north America, and this one is the best we ever been. Very traditional environment excellent food, fantastic sashimi freshness and flavor.

Best restaurant in Bradford by far tried others like Akbar's , Nawaab, Aagrah and etc, but nothing can be compared to Zouk's great service, excellent food and fantastic atmosphere. Can't wait to visit it again!!

Ate at Room on Monday night and had the excellent crisp pork belly with 2 hand dived scallops. Great cocktails too, excellent in all departments

Went on the off chance on Saturday as out for a night on Canal St. What a FAB restaurant! The service was a little slow but the food was certainly worth the wait. Nice unpretentious atmosphere and the best risotto I've ever eaten. Very reasonable prices too. Will definitely go back and would recommend to anyone

Had a great meal on Saturday night at Room - venison cooked to perfection with pistachio and chocolate. Top notch

Went for lunch at Earth Vegetarian Cafe and Juice Bar last week. Only one word to describe it - FANTASTIC. Gorgeous food, lovely venue and beautiful friendly staff. The Vegan Cheesecake is to die for. Keep up the good work guys. xxx

This is my first visit at the Chaophraya and my first impression was this is not a children friendly restaurant. There were 7 of us including my 22 months old son, we were led to a table that had high stools and high bench which were not safe for my son to sit. So I asked the waitress if there were any other tables that are lower down (normal height) and she replied no, then she point at the high bench and indicate that my son can sit there. I don't think she really care about the safety aspect nor did she offer a high chair for my son. It was then I saw they had a baby high chair (very dirty) at the corner, so I asked her whether he can use that high chair, she just said yes and walked off. So we had to go and get the high chair and clean it ourselves. We actually felt this waitress was unfriendly and quite rude in the way she treated us. The food was good but the service was quite poor.

Took my other half and mum here for a birthday treat,very average tapas and small portions (for tapas dishes),expensive and as previous recommendations same sauces seem to re-appear,disappointed to be honest.Not a patch on El Rincon!

Ate here 2 weeks ago will be the 1st and last time. Love Greek food but this place seems to have lost any sense of Greek identity with some weird dishe's !

We dined there last week and had sushi,which,not being an aficionado of Japanese food, decided that it was OK,just that. Very friendly prompt service by the young lady in traditional dress. I do not like though being asked whether i want to add a tip when I am paying by card,which I was.Also I thought the entrance stairs could be a little more appealing. Other that that we will give it another try.

Simply the best Japanese food in Manchester. The sushi and sashimi is super fresh and the beef sashimi is truly amazing. You MUST give this place a go.

Myself, two other adults and my son visited Efes on 14/09/2009 for the buffet. You pay according to the time slot you visit. There is so much variety to choose from such as salad, bread, pizza, lasagna, spaghetti, different choice of rice dishes, onion rings, various meaty dishes, cold salads (e.g. potato salad, pasta salad). To finish there are profiteroles, plus two other cakes or for the more health conscious grapes and melon. As it is buffet style you eat as much as you like. Four very hungry people tucked in and found all our tastes "satisfied" and as a vegetarian I didn't feel left out. The restaurant has a relaxing feel (we visited at around 5pm) due to the subtle background music. We left with full tummies and it only came to £28 for all four - Bargain!

Went there on a Saturday night which was very busy, did not have to wait as we were immediately attended and seated in our table. Excellent service, competant waiters who were friendly and able to explain the dishes to us. The Tandoori haddock and the Lamb Nihari is a must have. The nihari is one of the best curries I have ever had. Would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a great meal out.

Excellent service followed by excellent wine followed by excellent food! Not a bad word to say. Front of house geordie lad excellent! Chef a top lad, took time to talk to us and looked like had a good team working with him. Cant wait to call again. 110 out of 110 from us. The 42 crewe.
