Reviews in Manchester City Centre

Had a great meal.Top quality italian cuisine.Only just found it,but we will be back.There is also a very good "early bird"menu.

Went for a work leaving do and enjoyed it so much took my mother, husband and daughter for my birthday the following week. All thoroughly enjoyed it.

Excellent atmosphere and great food. Go for the platters - variety and large enough for any appetite. Second restaurant opening in Hale soon. Great! Just round the corner from me. See you there!

Food is excellent, service is promt, even when busy. The fixed luchtime menus are excellent value as are dishes off the general menu. Salt and pepper squid with sweet and sour sauce was delicious. Have been several times and will go back again.

Just Brilliant - No more words

Afer diving in off the street, from a cold and rainy night in Manchester we wondered what to expect. Well it was not at its busiest but the staff made us feel at ease right away. The food? No other option for us but the seafood banquet - Sharks fin & crab soup, salt n pepper squid, steamed scallops n the shell and a huge baked lobster (just for starters!) were all beautiful. Four main courses completed the set including king prawn and mange tout and steamed lemon sole, the sole was extremely delicate. Steaming hot sake finished it all off nicely - oh and the beautifully chilled fresh fruit platter. £80 all in for two of us, including the cigarettes they popped out to buy for us. Very nice, we'll definately be back.

We visited Dimitris during the Commonwealth Games and throughly enjoyed our meal. Considering the restaurant was packed out at peak time we still recieved excellent service! We ordered a mixture of tapas dishes and also had desserts and coffee and felt that it was very reasonably priced. We have recommended the establishment to many people and always heard good reviews following their visits.

Friendly service without the snotty attitude of many of a Canal Street bar. Worth the trek up the street, or a quick one to set you on the way down from the station.

Discreete service, food very tasty. Full of diners who were obviously regulars. No wonder it is hard to get a table on a saturday night. Very good value for money. tastes that linger without being overpowering

A lovely rustic spanish atmosphere.Great service & good food.Refreshing to hear spanish spoken whilst tucking into paella in Manchester.

Being a sunny day, I fancied lunch al fresco. Dukes sprang to mind. They serve pate and cheese with a big wedge of bread. It filled the spot and it's a nice spot to get filled!

If you're going for an average chinese then don't bother with Yang Sing because it can offer the regular chinese food but it will be only average and pricey too. If you want Dim Sum, then I can recommend Yang Sing although the Dim Sum menu isn't as varied as you'll find in London, it's certainly different and reasonably priced. You'll find me there for Dim Sum, but for everything it's just too pricey for what you get.

A very nice Thai restaurant which does all the regular dishes plus a few extras. Service is always on the ball, never too much or too little. Thai food is always a little pricey but this ranks at the higher end of the park.

A very spacey restaurant tucked in a back alley off Deansgate. The food offers nice little Tapas' but as with a lot of Tapas, the wallet gets hurt before the stomach gets satisfied.

We had the vegetarian platter and it was good quality but nothing very different. For the price at £13 pp on a vegetarian meal it was quite expensive for the portions. There are others in Manchester who do it better, in no quite as nice surroundings for less money.

All I can say is that ANY restaurant that can induce me to climb a veritable Matterhorn of stairs MUST have something about it. The Pearl City certainly has that! It features great dim sum (including, for my money, some of the best cheung fun rice rolls in town!) There's very little to fault here - a good, reliable Chinese! If only they had a lift....

Steaks are fantastic, the best I have had. Even the potato wedges were absolutely superb. Place is too big during the week as there aren't enough people to fill the room so atmosphere isn't great - go when it is busy

Recently reopened after extensive refurbishment, and now much larger. The food is still great - possibly the best in Chinatown - with some truly innovative dishes. Really helpful staff, who seem genuinely pleased you're there!
