Reviews in Manchester City Centre

We went on Saturday 8th August. The angel is a contradiction in terms. Initial feelings were that the ambiance wasn't great, it smelt abit fusty and damp and it looked shabby. We were taken upstairs which again had little atmosphere, even the music playing wasn't great. I think they had the radio on which was weird. The menu was short and concise which I like because you're not overly baffled with choices, I started with the Morecambe Shrimp Fishcake and my husband went for the Duck Liver pate, both were taste sensations, only slight complaint was that the toast was burnt and it could have done with either another slice of toast or less pate as the amount of pate was uneven. For main I had the chicken breast with black pudding and it was absolutely incredible, so fresh and tasty and the gravy was really rich and concentrated. It came with the biggest slab of black pudding and a lovely layered potato (although we were pigs and had chips too!). My husband went for the ribeye and it was cooked to perfection, amazing!! We shared a bottle of Chilean white wine which was lovely but the portions were so substantial that we couldn't fit anything else in us which was disappointing because we wanted to try the famous Eccles cake pud. The staff were lovely, the girl that looked after us had obviously tried the menu because she could tell us about it and she was friendly and attentive. The food came within a decent time and we feel neither rushed or abandoned. The only gripe we can have is that the place is so shabby, you could say that we should just concentrate on the food but as an overall event, the decor really lets it down. The high standard of food deserves a lovely setting. We turned up dressed to the nines on a Saturday night for a rare night out and felt really out of place, it feels like the sort of place you'd go to for Sunday lunch and a relaxed pint but then you would probably balk at the price on a Sunday afternoon as 2 starters, 2 mains and a bottle of wine set us back £60. A lotmore effort on the decor required but food is second to none!

Do I need to add more? Every recommendation has been glowing and I can only echo this. Having stopped in last week after missing a film, we discovered this is the best tasting Japanese restaurant in Manchester, bar none! Friendly, professional service, excellent chefs and a simple setting to dine on the freshest sashimi and sushi, savour Okonomi-yaki (Japanese pancake) and try green tea ice cream! Fabulous! We have eaten there 3 times in the last 4 days and there'll be more to come! 5 stars

A week after dining in little Yang Sing we tasted its bigger brother ,the service,price and the quality were similarly,v good.Not as busy as I would have imagined,sat night ,didnt have to book,70 quidish for 4, starters soup main courses,a couple of celebs in.recommended.

First time customers, will definitely go back again. The service was great, food was brilliant and the chocolate cake was to die for!!! :)

Went to little yang sing Saturday night,the place was hammered but we got in without booking,an excellent meal,my wife stated 'the best chinese she had for a long time',50 quid for 3 soup,shared platter,3 mains , rice and a pot of tea.Recommended.

Have been to this restaurant a couple of times now and have enjoyed both meal experiences. From booking the table to paying the bill the staff are excellent and and cant do enough for you and the food and atmosphere good to. Ive been with a group of 10 and a goup of 6 and the food has all arrived on time and has been delicious. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants a good night out with friends.

A huge disappointment on my birthday celebrations '07, with no response to my letter of complaint. Broken glass within table setting swept into my lap by brusque waiter; long delays, seated before 8pm yet some had to leave for last train 11.25pm before after dinner drinks arrived. Such a contrast to my fabulous anniversary celebration when the food and service were excellent. We have never returned since.

i've bin goin 4 14 years and ur right the lamb curry is still the same and addictive!!

Panama Hatty's is such an excellent place to eat. My girlfriend took me there for our first Valentines day together. We have been there several times since and had great service and well cooked/presented food every time. A very relaxed environment and polite staff. 10/10

This is the best, if your looking for good food no frills this is it. I have tried to keep quiet about this place for years but the secrets out.Everybody that goes here will always return. The best Lamb curry i have ever tasted. Try the veg samosas, incredible.Take them home they keep you going for days.Also best nan ever. The service is easy and uncomplicated.

a very nice restaurant, offering river views. my partner and i both thought the food was quite nice/alright rather than delicious. i had a choice of a mild, medium or hot karahi. i went for the medium, and i'm glad i chose that and not the mild as it was fairly tame (not as though i like 'hot'). my girlfriend had some prawn dish that apparently didn't taste very much like prawns. we twice asked for some tap water (we already had wine) which never came. the pickle tray for the popadoms was excellent though and we will probably give this place another go.

yes very nice place,impossible to park though!food ? ok

Food was tasteless, service was below par and the Manager is extremely arrogant after blaming us that the hair found in the Red Thai curry did not belong to his staff and he made out he was doing us a favour by replacing it, consequently we walked out only after paying for the starters as the manager locked the door. DO NOT GO THERE!

Found a pubic hair on my red curry (number 47). The manager to acused me of putting it it there. Was shocked and refused to eat anything else so the manager made us pay 30 pounds for 2 starters coke bitter lemon and prawn crackers...

i always come here for the lunch specials, cocktails are nice too. A great place for veggies!

The meal + service was excellent the portion size were very good my only grip was the price it was very very good i was expecting more but it was perfect the zouk blast drink was superb very refreshing recommended for every one!

The food here is amazing. I lived in Japan about five years ago and until eating at Tokyo Season have found Japanese restaurants in England to be a bit gimmicky and lacking in most of my favourite dishes. However, after stumbling in here accidentally on Saturday and having the nicest meal I've ever had in Manchester I have already arranged to come again.

IF u want quality food but do not want to cook get yourself off too Zouk their curries are always the best in term of taste they definitely r the best!
