Reviews in Manchester City Centre

Having been to this restaurant on many occasions since it has been opened I have always enjoyed the food. But in the last couple of visits it seems to have deteriorated. The beef fajitas had very little meat (fatty), in fact they were just full of peppers, the burgers were undercooked and the service was slow. I have since stopped going and coincidentally have heard on many occasions from friends and colleagues how they too are disappointed with the restaurant that used to be lovely as now gone to pot! Also the menus smell like sick

Really let down with the food this time around, I had a burger which was black on the outside and red in the middle! It tasted like it had been cooked a week ago and re heated! Not impressed as not the cheapest burger I have had! £11. Prawn starter also was a let down and was straight out of a freezer bag!

Impeccable service, divine food and idyllic environment! Thank you for a perfect evening!

enjoyed a pretty decent meal here. cost is average to pricey. they gave us our desserts free because they bought my girlfriend something she hadn't ordered and neglected to tell her that what she did want wasn't available. so fair play to 'em.

Frozen fishcakes re-hashed in a deep fat fryer? Salad smothered in Mayo? One of the worst restaurants in Mcr.

It's the MacDonalds of the Mexican food world! I went on Friday night; Would I go again? No. Staff didn't know what the ingredients were and the ambience is like...... MacDonalds.

We went to Alberts Shed for the first and last time last night. The food was lovely, but the service was poor beyond belief. The mains were brought to the table before we'd had time to finish our starters and then we had to wait an hour for the dessert to arrive having been told that our order had been lost. Plus no one came and offered more drinks at all. We were really disapointed after reading so many good reviews. It was a busy Saturday night but that should be no excuse for poor service. Thankfully the dessert was removed from the bill as we had waited so long. Certainly won't be going back.

I cannot believe that the previous reviews for this restaurant are for the same place that I ate last night. Starters were not fresh & obviously cooked from frozen. We had to wait 40 minutes inbetween our starters & mains. We asked for more drinks which we never received & when we got our mains they were pretty tasteless.The restaurant wasn't busy so no excuse for service this poor. There are far superior restaurants in China Town, Red Chilli being one. Going to Happy Seasons was like going back in time 15 years, not a happy experience.

I was disgusted at the bland quality of the food that does not represent Greece but a mix of all including tapas. Poor service with a lot of drug dealers handing around. I was also shocked to find out that Dimitris had a race-hate campaign against its neighbour Jowata restaurant. Apparently the Evening News and the Voice Newspaper revealed this info in February this year. Just next door on Jowata's windows you can see that this beautiful establishment had to put up with such racism from Dimitris and staff. Appalling and shameful to know this still goes on considering his establishment seems busier because of the alchohol sold on the other side of Jowata, on Deansgate. People should be told the truth and boycott such an establishment based on Dimitris ethnic stereotyping racism. I was happy to know Jowata won all cases and stood up to old dimitris.

The food here is great. The burgers are probably the best I've ever tasted. The beef is delicious, soft, and just perfectly done. There is a choice of about 25 different burgers. The majority of these have Aberdeen Angus Scotch beef as their main ingredient, but there's also a choice of several chicken, lamb, venison, chorizo and vegetarian options. Drinks-wise, there's a selection of bottled beers (including a couple of interesting New Zealand ones), soft drinks, milkshakes (which are just amazing!), soft drinks. Didn't see the wine list, but there is one available to look at on request. The welcome is friendly, and the ambience decent enough (very good for a burger restaurant!). We were shown to our table and informed it's a 'order and pay at the counter' set up. Slightly irritating, but fair enough. Food arrived quickly, and was just lovely.

Well, it took a little bit of time...but I finally found a place in Manchester that does good quality pub food. I certainly took for granted all the lovely pub and cafe meals you can get in Melbourne, Aus. I would recommend the ox to anyone!

OH MY GOD!!!!! THIS RESTAURANT IS AMAZING, THE SURF AND TURF AND THE GRILLED BANANAS A MUST ...... IT WOULD BE RUDE NOT TO GO

We've eaten here twice and on both occasions we had a lovely meal. The service was particularly good when we beat the crowds and got in on a Friday before 6.00. The staff are very friendly which makes it more memorable. Definitely recommended plus you've got the advantage of the good nightlife that's around the Northern Qtr.

We called into Taurus lately by way of a change from Velvet or Via. I must say I found the whole experience an absolute pleasure. The food was fab along with the friendly service and great wine. Try their pate... its lovely.

I have tried this restaurant several times for a 'special lunch'. On every occasion it has been excellent, with a really varied and exciting menu. The staff are friendly, helpful, and very professional. Superb value for money.

My husband took me here for my birthday... i've heard about Gaucho many times, but with so many restaurants to pick from when you live in Manchester, the prices on the online menus for Gaucho always caused me too chose others before it. Big mistake! As soon as we walked in, i was impressed. The place is visually gorgeous, and the front of house staff were very polite and, for a change in Manchester nowadays, smiling! Our waitress was undoubtedly the friendliest, most knowledgable waitress i have ever encountered. There's nothing this woman did not know, nor was there anything that was too much trouble! She really made us feel important. I noticed that all the waitresses for other parts of the floor, were the same. As for the food, the table bread and oil 'dip were out of this world.. so much so that i got the ingredients for the dip from the waitress, and will try to recreate at home... i could've gladly just eaten that for the night! The starter of Argentinian Sausage and mashed potato were lovely (although miniscule for the hefty price tag... but who cares!) The fillet stake was melt in your mouth, and for such a quality piece of meat, was excellent value for money. I had the 225g (smallest) cut, and was left uncharacteristically unable to have a desert, due to being full! The 'fat' chips were gorgeous too... not really chips, more like big roast potatoes! Cocktail menu was extensive and very fancy... the one i picked in the end was more like a desert in a glass, but having a sweet tooth, that suited me fine, and i really enjoyed it. The meal for 2 came to just under £60.. not bad for 1 starter, 2 fillet steak mains (one larger than the other), 2 or 3 argentinian largers, and a hefty cocktail. Also, refreshingly nowadays, gratuity wasn't automatically added onto the bill (how do places get away with this anyway!) and we were glad to hear that any tip given for the excellent service, goes straight to those who have provided it! Overall, the food was really nice, but the service we received made it 100 times better. i will be returning in a flash!

We were wandering round China town and chose this restaurant by chance. We had a wonderful meal at lunchtime, three courses for £6.50. The chicken in red wine and brandy sauce was superb. The staff were friendly and polite. Would definitely go again.

This place is awesome - I now go there every day. In fact, why am I telling you this ? I want to be able to get a seat inside. It's awful, don't go there under any circumstances !!!
