Smiths Restaurant – EcclesIf you've tried other Mediterranean restaurants you'll know all about the mediocre food and high prices charged by some establishments in Manchester. How refreshing then, to come across Efes, an authentic Turkish taverna which truly expands its offering beyond kebabs and homous. Service was very friendly and professional, whilst the food introduced us to a number of different turkish dishes.
Efes Restaurant & Taverna – Manchester City CentreThe food arrived quickly, was well presented and very tasty. The staff were very friendly and helpful, I would recomend Nutters for a special occasion meal as the price may not be to everybodies taste, One down side though - 3 months waiting for a table on a Saturday night. Having said that, the best things in life are worthwaiting for
Nutters Restaurant – RochdaleVisit Etrop Grange recently for first time ,Excellent!Will go again soon!
Etrop Grange – Manchester Airportinteresting and inventive specials board, with the jamaican fish stew being paticularly delicious, but with food of this quality (and price - youre talking city centre, not suburbia here) a suitably adventurous wine list is required (someone who knows how to make a G + T wouldnt go amiss either)
Saints Bar and Kitchen – DidsburyI must say that the Bulls Head have got it exactly right !! The food is fabulous and if you are anything like me, you love large portions of great food. If so this is the place for you. A cracking atmosphere. There is also live music on certain nights of the week. The Sunday carvery is wonderful.
Bulls Head Hale Barns – HaleCertainly has different items on the menu from the rest in Rusholme. Shared a dosa as a starter - very good. Food seems to be spicier (hotter) than in some other restaurants in the area. This might become a place to visit regularly.
Punjab Tandoori – RusholmeVisted yesterday. Food continues to be very good with an excellent selection of meze starters. The restaurant now operates a minimum £15 per head cover charge so isnt as cheap as it used to be.
Aladdin – DidsburyWe have a curry from the Bilash on a wekly basis either take out or eat in and the food is always brilliant with large portions every time. All the staff are lovely and friendly and do their best to please.
Bilash Balti House – SwintonABSOLUTELY FABULOUS, GREAT FOOD AND PLENTY OF IT!! GREAT SERVICE AND PRICE WAS EXCELLENT!! WELL WORTH MORE THAN ONE VISIT.
Giovanni Italian Restaurant – DroylsdenBesides the hundreds of kebabs of various varities I consumed as a student, I don't recall ever being for a real Turkish meal. The restaurant part of the Turkish Delight is extremely small and the restaurant has unfortunately gone the route of cramming as many tables in together as it can. For non-smokers I can see this being a nightmare. The food itself was nice, if not outstanding. The charcoaled chicken was tasty, the portions were a decent size, the rice was well done; I just felt it lacked the "wow" factor. Still, a pleasant evening out and a nice change, a worthy diversion once in a while.
Turkish Delight – ChorltonI'm a, soi-disant, curry connoisseur (aren't all Mancunians nowadays?). With that in mind I went to Great Kathmandu on Valentine's Day with high hopes, though tempered by the potential (and likely) let down. How wrong I was! The food is superb; being of the highest quality, the sharpest taste and the right amount. The service was fine, I suspect on a normal day (anything but February 14th) it'd have been excellent. The ambience is the same. It was extremely crowded and, even though we'd booked, we had to wait 30 minutes for a table. If you haven't been to Great Kathmandu - go. If you have been, then why aren't you there now? Sheesh.
Great Kathmandu – DidsburyUnfortunately the excellent meal was marred by the service - they kept forgetting us so we had to badger them to get cutlery, to order, to get the water we'd asked for, to order dessert. A shame as the food was very good and the place is a lot warmer now they've redesigned the doorway!
Gio Ristorante – Manchester City CentreI've been to some great Indian Resaurants in my time. This is up there. Good service and quality dishes.
Raj Bangladeshi Restaurant, The – WiganHighly recommended for great food and friendly staff. Can be a bit pricey unless you go for the early doors menu . (3 courses for £15)
Lime Tree – DidsburyMy husband and I have been going to the Dilshad for about 13 years and also the sister restaurant Tandoori Nights on Middleton Road Manchester. We have never found an Indian restaurant to match the quality of food. We have travelled far but always look forward to a "Dilshad" meal - Carole & Ian
Dilshad Tandoori – Moston100 % customer satisfaction. tasty food.relaxing place good quality service. 10/10
Cafe Lahore – OldhamAt last a good restaurant with food entirely made on the premises. Three of us were dining and all of our meals were excellent. The food is simple Italian fayre but exectuted very well. The pizza bases are thin and chewy with a lovely wood smoked flavour and their vegetables and meat are of top quality. The service was patchy and brusque, as some Italian male waiters enjoy affecting but the quality of the food and wine more than made up for this. We thoroughly recommend this restaurant but book ahead as it is very busy.
