Reviews in Manchester City Centre

My Girlfriend and I went here this past weekend. I had the tuna pizza and she had the spinach pasta. It was Incredible. My gf even went to say it could be one of the best pasta dishes she's ever tasted. Great staff very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend going whenever anyone gets a chance!

This is a lovely place . Food and service is excellent Owners and staff are very welcoming and friendly. Would highly recommend the Armenian.

First time dining here and I'll definitely be returning. The food was delicious, we had 3 courses! The cocktails were amazing, especially the peaches and cream. The staff are friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is chilled. It's got that nice holiday vibe to it. Really can't fault it.

Great food , good beer warm friendly helpful staff . Mixed starters and barbecue meal selection outstanding. Another very enjoyable evening.

Service was great and the staff were very friendly. Went on braai day. Quality of steak was not at all comparable to South African meat. It was like strips of stewing steak which seem to have been cooked on gas, so not actually braai'd. Would have been better marinated. Better quality meat properly braai'd to taste, more salads and potato dishes, roosterbrood, pap and tomato, braai broodjies would all make it more of a braai.

Food was ok - disappointed that the menu is different on a Sunday as the website doesn’t state this. Also states on the website discounts for services/students which apparently isn’t on anymore as this was only during covid. Most was value for money whilst some was not worth paying for.

Excellent service, delicious and authentic food. Definitely try the pomegranate wine and honey cake

Easily the best Armenian food we have eaten outside Russia. The pomegranate wine was exquisite. The goulash was flavourful and hearty, simply out of the world. Service was awesome! We will be back again. Highly recommended…

Amazing food and staff as always Went as a couple Thursday afternoon the food was spot on, waiter was so friendly. Could not recommend this place enough you must try for something a little different and a great atmosphere. Will be returning again.

We're South African and really enjoyed our afternoon at Chakalaka. The tastes and smells and vibes took us back down memory lane and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals! The chakalaka, pap, biltong and bunny chow were all delish! We even took some milktart and malva pudding to go. The only thing I'd say, is the tomato sauce for the tables should be All Gold :p (they do sell it though for anyone wondering)

Love this place and it has become a new favourite!

Absolutely fantastic experience on Saturday 17th July. I had calamari fritti to start, followed by lobster ravioli. Absolutely gorgeous. My partner had smoked salmon to start then lasagne. Equally divine he said. The complimentary bruscetta was very welcome and delicious. Topped off with a couple of espresso martinis was a very enjoyable meal. Service and friendliness was second to none too. Thank you Giorgios.

Great afternoon with friends, great drinks, good food and a lekka vibe!

It was my birthday meal out and our first time at Chakalaka we had a fab time. Everything was so relaxed food was delicious and the drinks fantastic. We cannot wait to go back again its a great spot with superb service
