El Rincon is an excellent place to eat, it has a very Spanish feel and great atmosphere!! I love it!!
El Rincon de Rafa – Manchester City CentreExcellent food, interesting and vibrant surroundings and it won't cost you an arm and a leg. Well worth a visit.
Velvet – Manchester City CentreI hope that my experience at Taurus is not going to become the norm. I dined with a number of friends at Al Fresco on a Sunday night and the service was slow and the food portions terrible. Two of my friends ordered a dim sum platter at £12.50, when it eventually arrived after 48 minutes, it consisted of around 8 dim sum items, half a plate of prawn crackers, Olives (Chinese olives no doubt) and a lot of salad. My Cajun chicken was anything but, and was a humble 5 slices of chicken breast in a decent sized ciabatta (all for £5). Fortunately the Taurus Burger with Bacon at £8 was of a better standing. When we commented to the waiter about the portion sizes, he agreed that they were not altogether reasonable and reduced the meal by half price. I've eaten a couple of times here before on lunchtime on various days. I've usually found it much better but I think this is a change in policy by the management. I don't think it's somewhere I could recommend because of the lack of consistency. A great shame.
Taurus Cafe Bar and Restaurant – Manchester City CentreBooking is advised otherwise one can have a long wait. Service was great and so was the food, Can get a bit crowded though but that feeling fades away very fast. Convenient location and a must for Thai food fans out there!
Siam Orchid – Manchester City Centrecheap as chips billy bunter would be full up!
This and That – Manchester City CentreThe atmosphere at Sinclairs is something you'll find nowhere else in Manchester. Really cheap prices and quick service. Perfect place to come on a sunny day or on a night out. My favourite place to have a drink and generally a fantastic time.
Sinclairs Oyster Bar – Manchester City Centre28 0f us booked and had a brilliant night at EFES, the service was great, entertainment fantastic. All staff made my sisters hen night a night that we wont forget. Would highly recommend to others.
Efes Restaurant & Taverna – Manchester City Centreevery time i have visited with customers and family , the service is second to none , and the food outstanding espicially the mixed grill , v good for catering for larger groups also highly recommended
Cafe Istanbul – Manchester City CentreVery good food, but truly awful service. Over an hour between courses, and repeatedly ignored requests for extra drinks, the bill, etc., combined with arrogant disdain, effectively ruined our evening.
Stock Restaurant – Manchester City CentreVery difficult to find - I had to seek the assistance of the long arm of the law. But well worth it. Excellent "rice and three curries" for £3.50. Just what you need after a morning round town.
This and That – Manchester City CentreThis Restaurant has to be one of the greatest in Manchester! the food,service and atmosphere is out of this world. GO TOPKAPI!
Topkapi Palace – Manchester City CentreOK I haven't given any outstanding ratings (a reflection on my fussiness rather than the place), but I love it here. I've been coming here for years and the lovely food, good service and friendly atmosphere always ensure I have a great time- as well as the happy hour wine of course. I've introduced lots of people to its joys and everyone has been suitably impressed. I can't sing Velvet's praises enough.
Velvet – Manchester City CentreOn the basis of my first visit, the Yang Sing deserves its reputation as one of Britain's premier Chinese restaurants. It advertises that it will design a banquet for you around your likes and dislikes at a fixed price. We told the waitress what these were and that we dont want to spend more than £25 per head. We left it to her to pick the food and keep it as a surprise. It was great. Nothing could have been described as "the usual you get in a chinese", but, equally, there was nothing odd. Service was first class. Our visit was for a saturday nightnd, even for 7.30, the reservation had been essential. As mentioned above, food for four cost £100. Drinks and tip added another £50. Not a cheap night out but worth every penny.
Yang Sing – Manchester City CentreExcellent value for money and always friendly service. It has become a mainstay of Manchester Eateries and can always be depended on. The extended non-smoking policy is a welcome addition.
Croma – Manchester City CentreThe ambience of this place has to be tested to believe. Wonderful staff, quality beers and excellent choice of quality food. On a sunny day,"Shambles Square" as we still call it, is a match for Paris, Amsterdam or Madrid.
Sinclairs Oyster Bar – Manchester City CentreThe Ox has a current menu firmly in the "modern british" style. My partner had a starter of crab cakes (spicy), followed by a good rib-eye steak. I had black pudding, on a potato & apple rosti, followed by pork chop with roast vegetable couscous. All excellent. Being greedy, we had side orders of fine beans and a really good rocket & parmesan sald. It meant we were too full for desserts, but managed coffee. Service was excellent throughout. It was great to have such quality food in this relaxed environment. Bill, including drinks was just short of £60, which we felt was good value.
The Oxnoble – Manchester City CentreBeen several times, but never anyone else in the restaurant at lunch time. One bad experience with mussels but generally food excellent, though expensive for the place. Bar food better value, and just as nice, with more punters to give a better atmosphere.
Bluu – Northern QuarterBeen meaning to try Grinch out for a long while, finally did so last night & wasnt disapointed. Had the Pollo Rosso pizza, which had to be the tastiest i've ever experienced. Much better value than other pizza providers in the city. Also really impressed with the range of cocktails!!!
