Lovely food, great atmosphere

the food is excellent ( especially the chatins )and so are the waiters there,all dressed up in black showing a glimpse of how handsome the pakistani men are.especially da one on the till.....

I love Japanese food and was taken here by my boyfriend . the food is presented beautifully and tastes wonderful. Great place for a romantic night.

Brilliant chippy. Reminds me of how all fish & chip shops used to be! Great service, good portions, and quality grub!

Went with my wife last Friday on the strength of recommendations here and was very disappointed. They were very busy (7.30pm) and the staff were on a mission to get us fed and out the door asap from the word go. The menus had food from previous diners in between pages (yuk!) and once we had prised them open it was pretty standard fare. The poppadoms were actually very good and not the standard ones that are generally brought in. Starters (bhaji and samosas) were OK but both our mains were were the wrong side of average. I had chicken chat phat off the specialities section and my wife had lamb jalfrezi both were frankly horrible and we both left 50% + and we weren't questioned by the waiter as to why. the place couldn't handle the volume of people dining that night which may explain the poor quality but I won't ever return

The most authentic Japanese food I've had in Manchester (and I lived in Japan for 5 years). Highly recommended.

we visited Ciao Bella last Friday on a wim basis and as a change from China Town. Both of us were extremely taken back by the friendly staff and the quality of the food.... My favourite restaurant in Manchester used to be Alberts Shed I can now say that Ciao Bella tops their very high standards and has become our top restaurant in Manchester. I would recommend that anyone gives this restaurant a chance as you wont be disappointed...!!!!

Visited for the first time a couple of nights ago. Went in on the off-chance with no expectations. There were 5 of us and every main & starter was delicious. Innovative dishes and great flavour combinations - all cooked very well. Service was great - friendly but not too much. Food wasn't slow but wasn't super fast either which is perfect for me. Price was right/value for the quality of the meal. Would def recommend and will be returning.

Cosy pub atmosphere with fantastic food, which far exceeding our expectations. The mutton & leek suet pudding was so nice, as were the chips which were the best I've had in a while. Sticky toffee pudding was lovely and light, (although it comes with custard, we asked for the homemade ice-cream & they were happy to oblige). Good selection of real ales, and the walk back down the hill into Ramsbottom finished off the evening nicely. Will definitely be going again.

Visited Sagnam Friday night and was surprised to see that they have cut the restaurant in half,but was really pleased with the excellent service and food ,place was almost full 8ish,and of course the price was spot on 40 quid ish for 4 plus a takeaway,inc a mountain of free poppadoms for starters ,well done Sagnam.

tried this for the first time last Saturday, absolutely fantastic. service, atmosphere, drinks, all 3 courses brilliant. going again tonight! much better than the other 2 Italians nearby..

amazing restaurant, good deal and quick service.

excellent food, very friendly people, LOVE IT!!...oh and yummy home made scones!

This is a great little cafe! Very friendly and welcoming with fantastic home cooked food - just what you want on a chilly damp day! Well worth a visit.

went to Pesto on Friday evening as was surprised at the menu as was expecting a traditional Italian Menu .... a nice change to have a choice from what was an Italian Tapas menu Staff were really friendly and the food was very nice .... not the usual Italian but excellent if you want something quick but not the traditional 'fast food' that is on offer elsewhere

Just got back from the swinging bridge, served by Lindsey. Was a lovely meal, Lindsey was attentive and nothing was too much trouble. All the staff at the swinging bridge are friendly and as soon as we walked through the door we were greeted by a friendly face. You were right Lindsey the fish was gorgeous! Thank You for everything!

We have just returned from an evening out at The Chetham Arms.We had a great evening.The menu and specials board offered a good selection of food to suit all tastes.The dining area in the restaurant was excellent ,you still felt you were in a restaurant but you had your own private dining space. The food was British food at its best.,The personal service was friendly yet professional and we will visit again.well worth a visit!!!
