Reviews in Manchester City Centre

Grinch is definitely a pesonal favourite of mine- it's so cosy and has such a great atmosphere. The food is excellent and is better than the standard of most wine- bar-restaurant type establishments. I had a Duck Pizza which was fab and only £5 during happy hour. My favourite food here is their Special Chicken- it is a real must as no-where else does anything as good! Proof that independant places like this really can do better than all the chains that seem to dominate Manchester these days.

The address is a bit misleading being at the back of the buildings at the corner of Deansgate and Quay Street, but well worth finding his little gem. Very handy for the The Opera House, The Triangle, and Castlefield on nights out in the city centre, and we often make an 8 mile round trip just for a special lunch time meet-up. An informal atmosphere and cordial welcome awaits you, and questions on the dishes are welcomed with friendly, enthusiastic advice. The food is fantastic - try a few tapas followed by Paella and the odd glass of red wine.

Hey! I've been to the Wagamama only once, but I'll definetly go there again. Even my parents liked the atmosphere-it's stylish and looks a little bit like a university refectory- but that's perfect. The guests don't spend to much time to sit around after there meal-that seems to be part of the concept which is great as there can be a long queue. We had about 20 people standing in front of us it we only waited 5 minutes. The service is quick- food is served when it's ready and it comes immediately- so one might have to wait longer than the others, but it's fresh. I had Ramen noodles with chicken and coriander- it' was just delicious!! The noodles were good, the chicken was crispy and the coriander was fresh. Sorry- I can't remember the price for it. But as a student you get a discount on the bill (only food i guess) before 7 pm. It's worth it!! I'm going to buy a t-shirt there aswell one day! Go there and try- you'll love it if you like chinese, thai or indian food. Enjoy! mieke

Best Italian in Manchester

We had a fabulous night here. One of our party is a wheelchair user and the facilities were great. Easy access to the restaurant and rest rooms. The service was impeccable and the interior of the place just has to be seen to be truly appreciated. A wonderful place that I'd recommend to anyone.

Top notch - expensive but definitely worth it!

When we went the bar was packed, but the restaurant wasn't totally full - but service was rather patchy. Food fine but nothing oustanding. Not inspired to try it again ourselves, but I'm sure many people will like it.

A wonderful atmosphere superb food all freshly prepared,great wine friendly staff and exceptional value for money especially for a city centre restaurant

A cosy table for two in relaxed surroundings yet we never felt neglected. Food was glorious especially the seafood soup with coconut cream. I never thought I would enthuse about soup but it was ACE. I will be back!!!

Had fantastic meal on overnight stopover tfrom Northern Ireland to Egypt via Manchester airport. So much better service and value than airprt hotels! Why don't you advertise that the city is 15 minutes from the airport.Anyway Pacific was so good thatt we are returning this weekend to stay in the centre in Malmaison Hotel, go to the races and re-visit Pacific.
