Reviews in Manchester City Centre

Great food and fab value with their offers on. Very generous portions, lovely atmosphere

What a find! Can't believe it's taken me over 6 months of travelling to Manchester each week to find this place. Amazing efficient and friendly service and food so very tasty with a fab 50% deal in the week. 1000% will be back and intend to work my way around the menu.

Had an excellent meal and excellent prices. Very efficient service and very friendly waiter and waitress. Nice to see this within a very short distance from the city centre. All in all excellent all round. Will be returning.

Our first visit and will certainly return. Pre-theatre menu good value and good quality. Good staff and good service, very friendly and efficient. Only negative was the quality of the orange fruit juice, which was not good. Surely wouldn't be too too much trouble to get in something decent for those of us on alcohol-free menu? Otherwise everything really good.

Wonderful afternoon. Lovely food and atmosphere. Been many times and always have the same experience. Staff are so attentive and nothing is too much trouble. Would highly recommend to anyone from a couple to a larger group. We will be returning.

We chose off the pre-theatre 2 course menu at £23.95 per person. Meal very good. Service very quick and efficient. Drinks on the pricey side but would eat there again.

Excellent service, wonderful food and marvellous ambience.

I went for a meal on the 24th Feb before attending the theatre. What a wonderful place! It had a lovely atmosphere and the staff were very attentive. It was busy but the service was fast. There were four of us in the group and all of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals. I would highly recommend Gio's and will definitely return. Thank you.

We visited Gio’s for a pre concert meal. The food and wine were excellent and the service was of a high standard

Great food and service and with 50% deal, superb value for money - would definitely recommend.

Well run, fun and interesting venue, the staff are so hard working, the evening I was there the restaurant was full and buzzing and yet the staff coped well and remained upbeat and friendly. Food is very tasty and different and that is harder to do than it sounds because Northern Quarter is so varied and different across all of the streets. Well done all of you at Chakalaka, I and my group of 6 locals loved our evening with you.

We ate here following a trip to the theatre. We were greeted warmly on arrival. The food was served quickly and with a smile and was delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive. We will definitely return when we’re next in Manchester.

Wonderful food and service, as usual! Thank you to all at Gio’s.

Great restaurant. Funky decor & top tunes. Staff were great and attentive without being overbearing. Good offers on cocktails & very tasty cocktails. Food was outstanding. Cooked to perfection & presented well.

It was our second visit and didn’t disappoint same as the 1st visit .Service was friendly and inviting Food was absolutely delicious and the atmosphere was buzzing.Will definitely be returning.

Our party of 4 dined pre theatre. The service was very good and attentive but the staff seemed run off their feet. When our food arrived it was delicious and we enjoyed it very much. Drinks were overpriced though and any savings on the pre theatre menu was made up by the drinks bill. We had to ask several times for our bill. Again the staff were very busy. Overall the quality of the food far outweighed any negatives and we would certainly go again but would give ourselves an extra half hour next time.

Awesome service, no stress at all and the food was excellent as usual, we were heading to a show and the staff were first class, well done. I would highly recommend Gio its been a favourite for years, it is a great independent Italian restaurant with personality and attitude, well done for still being there for us after all these years.
