Reviews in Manchester City Centre

I came with a group of 12 teachers over a week ago. Was pleasantly surprised with my delicious pizza, and everyone was full with their servings. Ooo the sweet caramel was great. I'm awaiting confirmation by yourselves for another reservation on Monday, June 13 with more friends.

Ate in the bar at the GRILL on the ALLEY on Saturday night. We didn't book and couldn't fit in the restaurant, so we opted for the bar which I wasn't best pleased about to be fair. But I had a lovely meal and the service was just as good as in Restaurant. I had changed my mind at the end as it was great to see the pianist downstairs playing. I chose the Seabass and my partner the prawns; lovely and fresh. Had the cheesecake for afters which was divine. Would dine in the bar again!

we have dined at the stockport for many years and found both the staff and the food brilliant as we were in Manchester last Monday(23rdmay)we called in and had yet another very good meal and reasonably priced too

I took my wife for a meal to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary.I had been once before when i used to work in Manchester,some 16 years ago.We really enjoyed the food.The vegetarian range is good,the owner was knowledgeable about the food,very helpful as were the other staff. The portions are quite filling.At the moment we are enjoying trying different Thai restaurants & would certainly re-visit this one if we were in the vicinity

We ate at Stock for a Friday lunch. The set menu for £10 gave us two superb courses -the ravioli was divine and the sea bass was delicious. Great value in spectacular surroundings - would highly recommend.

Was known until recently as Detox-Retox. But has been re-branded Bistro 1847. 1847 being the year the vegetarian Society was formed. The bar offers a fantastic range of cocktails, spirits, wines & bottle beers, all of which are suitable for a vegetarian diet. Great imaginative food which is exclusively vegetarian, and some superb Vegan options, even my meat eating friends were also pleasantly surprised with how good the dishes were. Will definitely be back!!

The self proclaimed "purveyors of real ale, fine food, splendid wine and atmosphere" - Spot on description I'll say! Prices pretty reasonable too. Must try out their sister establishments ODD and ODDEST

I was expecting authentic Spanish cuisine, what I got was truly flabbergasting. Frozen surimi crab claw that had been PRE-BOUGHT, ready made and frozen (Do a google search on frozen surimi and look at images) which was tasteless and pure white imitation crab meat (no fresh crab to or fresh anything to be found at El Rincon except the side salad of half a tomato and 2 slices of cucumber on one of the plates!). Everything was covered with tinned tomatoes on every dish, and all dishes tasted the same except for the frozen meatballs, the meat was tasteless but I got a hit of chilli with the tinned tomatoes this time. The same with the squid it was chewy and clearly pre-frozen. Very disappointingly (because this place could be so good, and has gone very downhill) the management have obviously decided to cut corners in an effort to turn over tables. Service wise everything came within 5 minutes of ordering and as we had barely taken the last contents of a dish the plates were whisked away from us within a split of a second. The wait staff were constantly hovering making it a stressful evening (we were in and out within 40 minutes!)

I have enjoyed curries for more than 30 years & this has to be the best Indian Restaurant in Manchester. I have been here many times & the dishes are very varied in taste. Meat quaility is excellent & spicing is truly exotic & interesting. There are flavours of fennel, fenugreek, cardamom etc. The Lamb Rogan Ghosht & Pilau Rice here are the best I have eaten for years. The exemplary service puts other Asian restaurants to shame. The only sensation you are likely to get along the Rusholme curry mile these days is of poor overcooked meat combined with varying degrees of cheap chilli powder...

Dim Sum is the most best in China Town ever, and all staff are always happy to serve whenever we need them for, quality of the food is very good, try out one of their signature food, 'Golden soft shell crab' thumb up!!

We went for our 3rd visit today and Grinch do the best pizza in town. The food is always fresh and tasty, amazing cocktails and good service.

i would never recommend this place as its food is terrible and the service is crap please please please don't spoil your night by walking in there

Went to EastZeast in Manchester centre. Tasty food and lovely service.

Good standard of food, but a lot left to be desired! Recently went to celebrate a birthday in a group of 10(2 young children included) had booked in advance and was really looking forward to good Japanese food having read the reviews. Although the food was good, we had to keep reminding the staff about drinks and any extras we ordered, even though the restaurant was not full. Finally although we asked at the beginning to pay separate bills, we had to wait over 45 mins paying the bill, 15mins waiting at the table and another 20 mins plus, stood waiting around whilst the waitress tried to work it all out. Very disappointing, especially as this meant our friends with the children had to leave ahead early as the children were getting restless having to wait so long. I left feeling extremely disappointed that on a special occasion we left wondering if we had been overcharged as the waitress could not explain the bill and seem to work things out properly on the calculator and the bills individually seemed expensive. But after 40 mins we just wanted to go. Good food, but definitely would not go again if more than 3 or 4 people, as being a bigger group seemed to be problematic to the restaurant

We didn't eat but enjoyed excellent whisky Sours in a cool atmospheric environment. Will return for a meal but I here they do a mean breakfast too.

Enjoyed my spaghetti With clams in this bright and cheerful spinningfields restaurant!

Proper pub in the heart of Manchester . Fantastic selection of real ales, wifi and tv's for sport. Nice change from all the ponsey bars nearby!

Love this place! It's had a wee refurb too
