Top restaurants in Manchester

“Visited following a recommendation and it didn't disappoint. Food was really lovely, service was great, had a great evening. Weve booked to come back for my husband's birthday in Jan, can't wait!”

“Tasty, appealing food. Good service and yummy mocktails. We tried a lot of dishes and I can say that this is definitely a higher end Indian, not drowned in sauces, these dishes were well balanced, full of flavour and spiced well. Sauces coat like a marinade should. I highly recommend the fish and prawn dishes. The sizzling main was impressive and tasted fabulous and fresh See photos”

“Beautiful restaurant, brilliant service and great food, thank you - Maria was amazing and she loved our singing”

“Great burrito place in the Manchester city centre, on Oxford Street. A very simple menu which I found quite refreshing. All toppings are included in the price (you get good value for your money), no hidden extras at all, which, unfortunately, is very rare. Four different meats, five sauces too choose from and a variety of Mexican beers. You can also go for a quesadilla or some nachos. The staff are nice and friendly, the service is very quick. Nice interior with plenty of seating inside and outside.”

“This was my second visit, and this time I decided to try the Kinoko Ramen. Even though it only contained veggies, the broth was rich and scrumptious. The shiitake mushrooms and tomatoes were not just cooked in the soup but also marinated and grilled, which add intensity and complexity to the flavor. Overall, I have no regrets about coming back to this restaurant and I am already hyped to go again.”

“What an amazing place this is. Great atmksphere and amazing food. I stopped here on a whim and am glad I done so. Clearly everything was freshly cooked and was done so to a great standard. I would definitely stop here again.”

“Hired here for my grandsons 21st,they were excellent, couldn't thank them enough.Staff were really friendly and very helpful and efficient. Thank you.”

“Fabulous stay! Room was spotlessly clean and spacious. All the staff so warm and friendly. A special shout out to Joel who was so welcoming on our arrival, he couldn’t do more to help us. A hotel I’ll definitely visit again :).”

“So we get to this place and it was busy, We hadn't booked a table so we were told that we may not be able to dine. As we travelled from Bradford, we were told we could wait until a certain time if the party that had been booked hadn't arrived. Well, the party didn't arrive and we were given a table, I can not honestly fault this place. From customer service to the food service, everything was spot on. It's a Saturday night and considering how busy they were every customer was well looked after with the same level of service throughout. We enjoyed our mocktails and the mains were amazing. We also got a complimentary free dessert and were so touched by this gesture. Danyal who went out of his way from when we came into the place to leaving was a star. Definitely recommend this place you will not be disappointed.”

“UPDATE. This is definitely the best Indian in Darwen. Although not on the menu, they do do a cauliflower side and tonight I even took my own aubergine. The food is always delicious and plentiful and the service is top notch. Toilets not quite finished but getting there. I wish they would bring the bill with the Bailey's. PREVIOUS We went there last night, Wednesday, at 5.30 for a change from our usual Sunday venue. We were warmly welcomed and served drinks (two pints of Cobra). The heating was on. We ordered three poppadoms (which came with a far too big a pickle tray), 2 mains from their chefs recommended specials with a vegetable rice, a garlic and cheese naan and a portion of onion bahjis. It was absolutely delicious, faultless and plentiful. Giving The Akash a run for its money? Most certainly at £42.00 with complimentary Bailey's. The decor is lovely. Miminalistic muted greys with the colourful paintings as a beautiful contrast. Not too bright. The service was discreet and professional. Not overly friendly. Downside? The toilets reaĺly do need attention to finish the refurbishment. Thank you. We will return very soon. Looking forward to their Sunday buffet which they said, is coming soon.”

“The food was good, as was the service. It wouldn't be fair to comment on the atmosphere as we called late on a Sunday night. Nothing was too much trouble for the guys there, and pizzas were served promptly. Really loved the sourdough texture.”

“Sapporo Teppanyaki is a great place to dine. The food is delicious and a wide variety of items is available. From beef to lamb to fish to veggie options. They confirmed that the chicken and lamb is halal. The taste of their items is also very good. Sushi tastes great as well and so does their dessert. Booking is highly recommended if you want a place at one of the live cooking stations.”

“Loved our experience at Gaucho. Some items were not photographed as it was all gobbled up too quickly! Place is lovely and the service excellent. Honestly, customer service is top notch; our waiter was very helpful, welcoming and friendly. We had the fillet and another type of steak recommended by staff. We got a side of truffle mac & cheese, chips, and rocket salad which were all very delicious. The cheesecake dessert was the best we ever tried & the brownie was average to be honest. Theres a lovely selection of drinks that is inclusive of those who do not prefer alcohol as well. It was a fantastic experience & we will definitely be coming again.”

“The whole experience was okies. Food was alright. They do need to clean their toilet it was very dirty.”

“Great meal and service. Would definitely recommend.”

“Always a fab place to eat. Staff are like family and we are well looked after. Never ever had a less than really good meal there.”

“Nice and Neat place to eat .Very comfortable environment to est home cooked food.”

“Wow! A warm and friendly welcome, a genuine interest in how you are, a relaxing service delivered with charm and attention. Food was spot on with flavour and deliciously fresh. Drinks were perfect with cocktails and wine. These guys know what to do and how to do it, Italy has come to the Heatons.”

“Fantastic restaurant! Where do I start. I've been ordering delivery and going in sometimes for a couple of years now and it's always really tasty and friends and family I share it with always agree too. I have a friend who lives 15 miles away who's hooked on coming weekly, you can bring your own booze for a cheaper meal out. The staff are friendly... even my family from India who can cook and afford top class food themselves, loved it! Reccomend the Lamb Karahi, Tarka Daal, Begun (Aubergine) Bhaji, Prawn Puri and Garlic & Coriander Naan, in particular. Great food and great value. Feel lucky to have this "hidden gem" on my doorstep in Reddish :-) Thanks.”

“Delicious food and excellent service. Everyone was very friendly and had a nice atmosphere, will be visiting again.”

“Popped in here wh n shopping, got say the lamb curry was beautiful. Made the naan bread to order. Would go again”

“GupShup is a rather special restaurant,the dishes are spiced so cleverly,full of flavours that excite your taste buds, you may not see your favourite curry on the menu here but don't worry the wonderful staff will guide you to a dish that delights !.”

“Excellent. The portions are more than generous. The great menu cannot fail to please. The penne pasta I had for main was cooked to absolute perfection. All 5 stars totally deserved. Helpful, friendly people who are more than happy to add to our lovely evening. We will most definitely return. Enjoy”

“What a lovely restaurant! The food is really good... we went for a variety of starters, crispy duck and then main course... all of them excellent.”

“The service is good and the food is excellent. As a huge fan of Indian cuisine the food was delicious. I will definitely be going again and recommend this restaurant to everyone I know.”

“Our new go to Indian Restaurant! the quality of all the food is excellent. Plus the fact that it is not licensed makes it a good economic choice too! Staff are superb too”

“Great chips and great fish. All reasonably priced. Staff are all nice and chatty. Only chip shop we go to. Parking on the road. Super friendly to kids.”

“We stayed at City Suites and never normally use the hotel restaurant…I am so glad we did this time! Really lovely food with exceptional service from Veronica. All of the staff were very pleasant and the food was faultless. The staff even bought out a birthday cocktail for my birthday which was a really lovely and personal touch. We really enjoyed our visit and will happily recommend to all of our friends and family who visit Manchester.”

“Lovely, small, old fashioned blues club. Always worth a visit if you are in the area. Small range of draught beers, but virtually, every spirit known to man!”
