Reviews in Manchester City Centre

Excellent restaurant with quick service & really good food. ‘Would definitely recommend it.

We thought we'd try this place out for our works party meal as we like to try different foods each year. We all found it quite hard to select one item each from the menu as there was so much we wanted to try, so be ordered 3 of the meat banquets and 2 vegetarian banquets, so we got a bit of most things. We shared them all between the 5 of us, fantastic, flavoursome foods, that did not disappoint, we did need to order extra flatbreads, but they arrived promptly, warm and fresh from the ovens. Great place, great company, great food 5*

Another really good Italian meal yesterday evening at Gios. Great service as always. Polite, friendly and efficient. Excellent authentic Italian food I just love their lasagne. Reasonably priced especially the two course army bird menu.

We were a large party of 17, the restaurant hosted us extremely well and the food was delicious. We all had a great time. The house red was not great but the restaurant swapped it for another bottle which was a great replacement. Would recommend for larger parties easy to deal with from a reservation perspective

Party of 8 at lunchtime with the team. Booked in advance and we were the only people there when we first arrived. Given this we felt the service could have been a bit quicker given it was evident we were on our lunch break although it was generally good overall. The food was hot and well presented and seemed authentic (this was our first time trying Armenian food). Felt the prices were reasonable although we were a bit disappointed that the lunch time 2 course offer is still advertised online but was crossed out in the menus.

Always a winner for a high quality healthy lunch. A real treat to find vegan options as good as this near my office!

Love Chakalaka, smallish, intimate venue, good service.

Friendly,cosy atmosphere with great food and service.

Lovely meal and great service before our trip to theatre.

Great fun restaurant with good food. Service very friendly and staff great

very disappointed three women went for the pre theatre dinner one garlic bread between us and an alcoholic drink each and it was over £90 the food wasnt fantastic not good at all we wont be making a return visit

Had a meal on Friday before going to the theatre. Service excellent even though there was not a seat left in the restaurant - the lasagne was absolutely delicious- one downside the lettuce on the plate was so wet that it rendered the toast for my pate soggy - the staff extremely efficient - i dropped a spoon on the floor before i could pick it up a member of staff had already done so and replaced it !!! We will definitely be booking next time we are in Manchester.

Great food & service in a lively restaurant. Was the perfect pre-theatre meal. Efficient & friendly staff. Would recommend.

Fantastic service as always. Have been here several times and it never disappoints.. always a full restaurant. The staff are attentive, polite and efficient

Visited the restaurant after a long hiatus. We were quite disappointed in the standard of food. The house red wine was also very poor. We should have complained but the staff were very nice. Not up to the standard we expected.

Excellent food a great location for lunch, pre or post theatre dining or meeting up with friends for something special. It's a great location with a buzzin' atmosphere & some of the set menus are very reasonable. I love this place & the service is excellent, I try to go a few times a year. You should go, treat yourselves because you deserve it. But know this, I am jealous because you are there & I am not.

We love this restaurant. The pre theatre menu is excellent value. Food is always delicious and customer service exemplary.

Really good value for money and nice staff. Only down side was my South African wife didn't find the buraworst as authentic as she would have liked...but she loved the pap.
