Gourmet cuisine options in Manchester

“Friendly staff,good food and very reasonably priced”

“Another gem for Urmston with delicious decor and a fabulous ambience. Incredibly friendly welcome from artist and entrepreneur, Helen. Pram-friendly, especially in the covered outdoor area as well as some tables inside, great food options including vegan and gluten-free cakes. Stunning art gallery at the back with original art work too.”

“Food is absolutely amazing! Fillet steak melted in your mouth. Decor really nice - feels more like Knutsford than Castle. The staff were lovely as well. 10/10”

“I was going to start my review by saying that Casa Di Pizza gets better and better, but really it just continues to be simply excellent. Wonderful food accompanied by warm, welcoming and friendly service. Couldn't ask more from Natasha, Alex and Dimitri.”

“Very good pizza, one of the best I've had. They had some beers on draft, which were tasty and reasonably priced, but not listed on the drinks menu, so its worth asking when you go. Friendly service and cool interior.”

“Really tasty food, fast service and nice atmosphere will definitely go back again”

“Nicest tapas I've had in years, each dish tasted delicious. Smoked paprika chicken was my favourite. Only thing I could say is it's a small space but wouldn't put me off going again.”

“Friendly owner and staff, they source the best and freshest ingredients to make the most incredible offerings for lunch. Prices are really reasonable too and this is why I keep going back for more, time and time again.”

“Lovely food, friendly warm feeling around this restaurant. The food was excellent, well priced. The starters and mains were delicious, I can be very fussy wrt cheese boards but No 4 are all over this, no cheese straight out of the fridge here, all beautifully presented, correct temp, ready to eat and enjoy! Our second time but will definitely return. Occasion: wife's birthday, went down v nicely thank you, the fudge gift was a welcome and thoughtful touch.”

“A hidden gem in copson street in withington. Great middle eastern and italian food. The food is freshly prepared. The pizza is italian style with a thin base. The foul is authentic and the kibbeh home made. Even the home made gourmet burgers are individually prepared and a world apart from fast food. Friendly staff and we have always had good service. Really good value for money, especially for families.”

“This place was a great surprise for us. Quality food, affordable price, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. We can’t wait to come back and try every thing that they have in the menu.”

“Myself and my partner took my parents here on Saturday night when they had come up to visit. It was a fairly last minute booking so the only time available was 8.30pm but it was so worth it. We arrived a little early and it was very busy! There was a large group leaving and there were another large group sat down at the table. We were told we could wait at the bar and order a drink. The man at the bar was lovely, though clearly very busy dealing with drinks orders for tables as well as the 6 people standing at the bar, but we were happy to wait. By the time our drinks orders were done a table was ready and we were taken to be seated. Every member of staff was a delight in there. And the food? AMAZING. As we finished up our meal the chef came out to ask how our meal was. What a lovely guy! We had a little chat with him before leaving. As we left and got in a cab the chef came running out with my dad's phone and glasses he left at the table. Can't wait to go back. So glad we booked here.”

“Well having seen plenty of attempts by many to pretend to be an Italian restaurant we finally have one !!!!……. Here in Hale. Delicious food home cooked and the restaurant owned by the chef, his mother in the kitchen and his wife front of house. Kid yourself no more this is the real deal and delicious- a must try !!!!”

“Superb food, great wine pairings. Service a little slow and decor a little shabby but you really don’t notice that once each course is serve. Staff exceedingly knowledgeable and friendly”

“We had take away for 4 people. food cooked to perfection, plenty of it and ample side dishes for everyone. Order was ready for collection at the time requested. Well done and thanks!!”

“It was my birthday meal with my family and they made us feel really welcome. Food was amazing, service was excellent, staff were so friendly. I had a happy birthday song played for me and an amazing piece of chocolate cake with a candle. Was really really nice. Definitely will go back there again. Thanks to all the staff for making my birthday special.”

“We had a lovely early evening meal here this week. We went into this restaurant on the off chance, we were accomodated. The staff were attentive without being overbearing, the pasta was gorgeous, we would recommend this restaurant, and have already. The prices were also good. Overall a very pleasant experience, hence the 5 stars. Thank you.”

“We went for the first time on Saturday night..... Frenjabi is so good that we booked for NYE there and then, the food is incredible and no hesitation in recommending you all go. NYE has an amazing menu and 1st class entertainment planned.”

“Gorgeous cafe. Fits right in with the Underbank development. The coffee is fab and the vegetarian breakfast (smashed avocado with poached eggs and halloumi) was amazing but it's the little touches that nailed it for me: 1. an umbrella stand and a coat stand, ideal when it's a soggy day outside (no dripping all over the cafe) and; 2. a steak knife to cut the sourdough toast. Much underrated. I spotted the cakes as I paid and went back later to sample. The Lotus Biscoff Cheesecake was incredible. Try the mushrooms on toast. Amazing.”

“Friendly and attentive staff & Generous portions. Usually sceptical over salad’s in Café’s, but this was one of the best I’ve had in a local cafe in a while.”

“What a delicious coffee and wonderful welcome at Lulu's how did I not know they were here. Great veggie(vegan) stuff, lots of yummy foodie things to buy and a fab atmosphere..I will be back!”

“Went on the second night they’d opened, and they had a bit of a shaky start. The bar staff accidentally put the wrong food order through, we were happy to eat what we were given, but they really pulled it out of the bag when they came over with a portion of their hoi sun duck and chips. Food was amazing, and it’s always good bashing out a couple of super Mario world levels while you wait.”

“Absolutely fantastic. Service was amazing. All staff extremely friendly and efficient - very welcoming. Food was amazing, loved everything. So many nice things to chose from. Would definitely recommend and will be returning again soon.”

“Absolutely amazing cuisine. Would recommend to anyone.”

“Very good service. I regularly order vegetables and Indian groceries from ApnaDesi Cart , which will be delivered on time as per request and veggies are like just picked up from the farm very fresh. I really appreciate their efforts to deliver fresh vegetables and groceries to customers .”

“The food is so nice and fresh I highly recommend this place”

“We tried A Star pizza this evening and it was great. You can tell they only use great quality ingredients, definitely the best pizza and the only place well be going from now on. Good price as well. The guys are so lovely too and made a fuss of my little boy. There's also the option to eat in if you want. Thank you!”

“Great place - went there a few months ago on the way to the cinema, messed up our timings and they were super helpful getting us the food really quickly. They had a really good looking wine list and also a properly interesting whisky list, need to go back and sample it properly!”

“Top notch service and excellent food. Price is reasonable and the environment is great!”

“Absolutely amazing!!!! Food was piping hot and delicious! Great service when we collected. Duck gyozas would have gone down a treat too so maybe something to look into for the future!”
