Reviews in Manchester City Centre

Lovely food, staff and atmosphere. Once again an excellent meal

Fantastic meal all round. Cannot wait to return, next month November 2nd already looking forward to it. Lovely friendly staff. Always return each month for pre concert menu ,then off to the Halle. Many thanks to all the staff for making my brother & I so welcome.

As a south African in the UK I was excited to try out Chakalaka. Amazing food and drinks. Felt right at home!

Thank you all for a lovely meal and looking after us for the evening

Been here many times and always enjoyed the food and service. Tonight, though was one of the worst experiences both my partner and I have had. The food was terrible. They seemed very short staffed, and no one was checking what was coming out of the kitchen. The chicken wings in BBQ sauce was the warning that worst was to come. The sauce was bland with little taste, more like a weak gravy. Then the chicken risotto, over cooked and tasted burnt but yet cold, far too much salt and garlic, no parmesan cheese or black pepper offered. The spinach and cheese ravioli was more like a soup, watery and foul tasting, far too much salt and garlic and again, no parmesan cheese or black pepper offered. We couldn't eat the main courses. Complained to the waiter who informed us that no manager was in tonight, which I suppose may explain why food wasn't being checked properly before it left the kitchen. We paid for our overpriced wine and left. Maybe it was just a bad night, but we won't be going back again.

Had a lovely meal with my husband,couldn’t fault it, food was amazing and really friendly professional staff. Will definitely go back

We have visited here for lunch earlier in the year but chose to come back for dinner at the end of September as we were staying nearby on our visit to Manchester. The food and service were fantastic, I had the Mario’s a pasta - superb, and my husband had the spaghetti bolognaise which he loved. We would definitely return next time we are down that end of town

Great food and atmosphere at fantastic prices. Staff were lovely we will definitely be back.

Great service, good and atmosphere.

I love it here- great restaurant, well decorated with delicious food and friendly staff . It’s really chilled and definitely will return! Pay a visit and you won’t be disappointed!

This is the best Italian restaurant in Manchester. We ate here 3 nights running on a long weekend so they must be doing something right! The food is delicious and the atmosphere is cosy and welcoming despite the fact it is a modern design. Cannot recommend highly enough and Sal the manager is fantastic.

Great Italian food as always & freshly cooked. Excellent service- polite , friendly , attentive & helpful. Very much enjoyed our pre- theatre meal.

I was recommended this place by friends and was really impressed with it. The service was excellent, they were efficient and friendly. The choice of food was great and was well presented. Great flavours. We were there for an early meal so it was a little quiet but can imagine it more lively at other times. Will certainly be returning.

From the moment we walked in to the moment we left, the service was outstanding Best Italian in Manchester for us, we will be back ♥️

We came here for happy hour cocktails, tried a few different drinks on the menu and loved every single one. Great atmosphere and lovely, attentive staff. We didn’t order food but the dishes being brought out for other tables looked and smelled amazing so will definitely be back to try that!

Visited Sat 30th. Absolutely fantastic experience, great and swift service, atmosphere was spot on and food was perfect. Great price too. Would definitely recommend.

Great food, professional, attentive,friendly staff. Really enjoyed our visit.
