Reviews in Manchester

I visited the Olive Garden today for the first time. The food, service, décor and ambience were all excellent. I chose Linguini Olive Garden which included the largest portion of divine scallops I've ever been served. Why I bother to write this recommendation, my first ever, is that they were cooked with chilli which I don't normally eat and I found them hot for my taste, although my friend loved them. The waiter offered at least three times to cook them again for me without chilli - even though it was my fault for not having read the menu correctly! I did not accept this offer which I thought was well beyond the call of duty. The French chef then came out to have a word with me - en francais - to make sure I was happy. Needless to say, I will be back - and bring all my friends...

Six of us ate at Azzurro on Dec 8 and I would agree with the glowing reviews of this charming, little Italian ristorante. Lovely atmosphere, attentive and smiling staff, delicious food. Two courses (no pizzas or pasta), two bottles of Valpolicella and a few soft drinks, no desserts but coffees, our bill came to £215 including service. Not cheap but very good value. We'll be going back.

I have been going to the Bi-Lash now for many years. Best Curry house around. Always make you feel welcome and food it GREAT. Also very good prices. Well recommended, service is fast and the take away part next door is quick and fast. You also get 2 free beers with your order and if you spend £15 or more on a take out you also get a free bottle of wine. Worth going.

If you want to treat your pallet this is a place you should definitely try the food was amazing! I would highly recommend the garlic bread for starters! I must admit if your looking for the best service around it's probably not for you; the staff are more interested in talking amongst themselves and gathering at the bar but they are polite young people with friendly faces, if you don't include the host that is. But one thing i can be sure about is that the chef knows how to work his magic, if your simply after great food this guy is your man!

Lovely food, great atmosphere, tasty wine! Love San Carlo! We were served promptly, and the staff were so polite and friendly, I was so impressed! The food was gorgeous - it truly tasted like an authentic Italian meal! Looking forward to my next visit already Lilly

Food, service, etc were OK and the house red was nice. But the bread was stale and, for example, six quid for four meatballs and a spoonful of sauce is a rip-off. Poor value for money. At the very least it needs a more inventive menu.

Good food, average service and a pleasant ambience. A little bit pricey though. All told, I'd go back - but it's not somewhere I'd rave about.

very nice restaurant shame they stopped doing pre theatre menu when moved no longer stands out as being very good value

This old time classic has changed ownership. Trying so hard it is almost embarrassing. A try hard front of house, new menu and slight revamp, its is tedious. Staff look confused and don't go if you are in a rush or hungry

Great little place. Like a small-scale Wagamama's. I went for the Thai red curry which had loads of flavour and just the right amount of kick. Some of the seafood was a little chewy though. Meal, plus starters and drinks for four came to £36. I don't think you can get much better for the money. Highly recommended.

brilliant, good quality food, the manager is a top geezer the chicken sheshlic and chicken kumbi taste lovely. The restaurant is smaller than the others but has quality, better then the other restaurants on the curry mile. Took my lady there she loved it

I have made a comment already on this website about the Met, but I visited there again last night and had to put finger to keyboard once more. It was amazing, I went with my parents and my dad and I shared the fish pie!!!! There was enough for 3 people easier but somehow we managed to polish it off between the two of us. Maybe that was because it was so delicious!!! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and everything was perfect. The Met is now officially my favourite place in West Didders!

Wow! Fuel has been a fantastic discovery for me! The food is fantastic with a large choice and very reasonably priced. The veggie breakfast is gorgeous! The staff are all very friendly and helpful and the cafe is cool and laid back with art work on the wall and posters of various musical events being hosted at fuel. An all round great veggie haunt!

Lovely decor and lighting. Let down by the service. The food was okay with a decent variety on the menu. The booking system seemed a little vague, but we were given a table with little fuss. overall, nice place, but service could be better.

I ATE A NICE MEAL AT THE RESTAURANT, LOTS OF VERY NICE REAL ITALIAN STAFF HERE. FUNNY THING HAPPENED FOUR DAYS AFTER PAYING FOR THE MEAL WITH MY CREDIT CARD - I STARTED TO GET PURCHASES FOR SECONDHAND GOODS ON MY CREDIT CARD FROM .... MILAN, ITALY!!!! GO FIGURE.

The staff are excellent here and very aware of the needs of and accommodating for people with allergies. Also very patient with demanding people like ourselves. Topped off with excellent food, it's an ideal restaurant.

The superb quality has never dipped in dozens of visits. Brilliant value. Utterly reliable. But don't tell anyone else - we don't want it to be packed out!

Our favourite restaurant! We have enjoyed many many meals there. We love all the seafood especially the seabass, seabream and calamari. The staff is so friendly and the service excellent. The atmosphere is very relaxed. A must!
