Reviews in Manchester

I started going to Happy Seasons in 1983! I know it is the best because I love my food and travel a long way to get there. I not only eat in but more often than not get a takeout. Everyone knows you can get your £4.50 sweet and sour chicken and rice extra from any chinese takeaway but the quality at HS is second to none. Please don't just believe what I say, try it and you won't go anywhere else..

This restaurant works. It is clinical the staff are welcoming and the pizzas are loaded. I had the Asian Chicken Pizza and it was the best i have had in any pizza restaurant. Nice little bar next door as well. Keep up the good work.

We are regulars at Bowerfold Spice, would not go anywhere else. Food, service and ambience all excellent. We are always greeted with a smile and a handshake and the staff are a brilliant - nothing is too much trouble for them. Would highly recommend to anyone.

I am from Glasgow & was visiting Manchester in September and ate at Nawaab's. Enjoyed the food so much that I drove the 540 mile round trip again in November with a friend and enjoyed it even more. Am planning on doing the same in Jan / Feb 09 and this time I'm bringing the family too. Bagpipes at the ready!!!

I have eaten at the Beeches Restaurant for the last ten years it is my absolute favourite. The food is consistently excellent and is always good value. I never manage a dessert as the portions are very generous. I have taken many of my friends who have all been impressed.

We went to the Angel on Saturday 20th December. The pub hasn't changed much inside since the beer house days, and neither has the quality of the beer, both excellent. There was six in our group and we tried a variety of dishes. The salmon was fantastic, well cooked and fresh, the beef was succulent, chips are moreish, dessert are a triumph - we tried the Lemon tart and this was refreshing and light. We will definitely be returning. You really should try this place, is a true Mancunian establishment with excellent food, good beer and a reasonable wine list. Huzzah

We visited the restaurant with Persia friends , who thought the food was excellent , matching Tehran restaurants ,the menu was complete and the pricing was very good , we would recommend this restaurant to any one , the service was good and friendly but watch the bill as we were charged the corkage charge when we had not taken any drinks to the restaurant , but enjoyed their jugs of Dooh , our fault we should have checked the bill

After reading various reviews on the Koh samui, i decided to book our Christmas meal for 29 people. The service and food was excellent. We were well looked after, from start to finish. Fantastic.

Went for the first time this week after trying numerous times. I shouldn't have bothered. I fail to see how people can say this is the best in Manchester, as it is far from that. We ordered eight tapas dish's between two of us and from that, one dish was ok (chicken with paprika). I ordered a mushroom dish with cheese that came as mushroom in a tomato sauce, as the waitress obviously misheard me say 38! That was ok but at 4.75 I would have expected more than 3 button mushrooms, absolute ripoff. Very average food, hardly any taste and we both found it bland Anyway the bill came to Fifty one pounds (inc 4 bottles perroni) and we both left still feeling peckish. Can't believe so many people rave about the place. But it has got a good atmosphere.

This is our preferred restaurant above all in China Town. Service is always superb, food is excellent and always hot. Now going into our second year of eating there for evenings out or a snack during the daytime. Excellent prices and a huge menu to choose from. Go here if you want quick friendly service in a very quiet surrounding.

had my 50th birthday party in the upstairs room food was excellent and the staff very attentive. It made my day special and we will definitely be going back for my daughters 30th next year.

Akbars was very good a while back, but recently the food is average. Hardly any dish's taste different. It is cheap though if your on a budget. It's very busy due to high numbers of asians who go there as they like value for money rather than quality

We went to this restaurant on the 20/12/08 and as always it was excellent!. We have eaten here about 4 times and each meal has been different and faultless. This really is one of the best (If not the best) Italian's in Manchester. I would fully recommend that you try this one if you like Italian.

Rule 1. Never judge a book by its cover. The surroundings may not be as upmarket as other town centre restaurants, but to be honest when your getting food as good as this it really doesn't matter. Took a gamble and visited as a family birthday/Christmas present and even the damn veggies where oooiinngg and arrring from start to finish. Service was excellent and nothing too much trouble, a special request for chunky chips (which where delicious by the way) no problem. Having been let down in the past by overpriced restaurants with great surroundings and average food, Kosmos is a welcome change. Would recommend to anyone who appreciates great food. Dec 2008

The smokey Jack Daniels Glaze is to die for.... the food is excellent... best meat dishes in town! Busy place/ popular, but attentive service from table staff. Enjoy!

Tried Dough Yesterday evening after just moving to the area. This is a no brainer alternative to the pizza hut and pizza express chains, the food is far superior and the DOUGH is home made on the premises... you can taste the difference. Had the Xmas pizza! very festive very filling very tasty and i got a starter and a mince pie and coffee for £11! excellent value. Staff were really friendly and definitely an experience I will be doing again and recommending others do!

I'm no foodie but I know what I like. I was hungry and was out with three foodies. I've had a nice in Japanese meal in Manchester and Wilmslow before but all for of us agreed that this was the best authentic Japanese meal in the city. The service was helpful without being intrusive and the sushi platter was enjoyed so much that we ordered another straight after the first. Fresh, tasty and well presented. As is the style these days the kitchen was open and the cooked meat dishes were enjoyed by all. Bottled Asahi and Sapporo suited our taste and the manager had gone to great lengths to ensure that the food was at the top of the agenda. The menu was extensive too without breaking the bank in this credit crunch era. We'll be back and get a green tea in :-)

A friendly pub atmosphere with excellent service. The food was prompt, hot and totally delicious. We recommend the home made chunky chips and the Cheesy Garlic bread. We have booked 13 seats for an Xmas lunch and expect to thoroughly enjoy ourselves.
