Visited on a Sunday, lovely atmosphere, delicious food & great customer service

We enjoyed Sunday dinner at this venue. The restaurant was quite busy with a good atmosphere and the food was very good....

I was really looking forward to this restaurant as a colleague who lives in Manchester recommended it, we were up for the Manchester Marathon this Sunday and were looking froward to a good meal after the race. It probably started ominously when we made the booking initially for 6pm and I emailed to inquire if we could change it to 7pm in case we were delayed from the marathon, no response, so this is usually a bad sign regarding customer service. We ordered two Ukrainian beers to begin with, mine was fine by my friend's had some black pieces floating in the glass. When we brought this to the attention of the waiter, he could see this problem but brought my friend a completely different coloured beer, but insisted that it was the "same beer", we didn't want to be rude and argue the toss with him, my friend got about half way through it then didn't drink the rest. At the end, we asked that this be removed from the bill as this wasn't the beer we had ordered (and the original beer was in a contaminated glass), yet it still appeared on the bill. Because restaurants have had a difficult time with Covid and the impending cost of living crisis, we decided we'd let it slide, but the waiter just blatantly ignored our request. The attitude of both people who served us was surly and unpleasant. We ordered the Armenian "meat banquet" for two, it said it was a mixture of hot and cold starters and a "chef's special" kebab. It all came at once, which we weren't aware of, we thought it was all part of the "starter". The food itself was of good quality, but a complete rip-off - extremely small portions, we were given one piece of bread between two of us, when we asked for another piece of bread we were charged extra. The entire meal came to almost £100 for two of us (we had two beers each, the meal and three additional sides), including service. I live in London but this was extremely expensive for small portions and poor service. When my coat fell off the back of my chair for a second time, the waiter quipped he'd "have to charge me" if it happened again, he was joking, of course, but overall that was the sort of tone of the evening, we both felt ripped off. This restaurant probably does quite good quality Armenian food, but the price, portion size and poor quality service make it one to avoid at all costs, Manchester has far better restaurants than this, it's very poor value for money.

Excellent food and service. Will definitely be coming again.

Always fab service and food.thanks

Another lovely visit to Art of Tea. Friendly, helpful service, tasty, fresh food and relaxed vibe. A Didsbury gem.

My boyfriend and I took our mums on 03/04/22 as a late Mother’s Day present. The food was really nice but the service was a little bit slow, staff were apologetic and attentive to use during our meal. I will definitely be attending again

We had a table booked for 5, we had to wait a good 5 minutes before anyone came to ask if we needed help, after me telling the staff we had a table booked, the waitress pointed me in the direction of the table , i at least expected to be shown to our table ? That was an older couple sat at the next table and the guy was sat there vaping ?! Which wasn’t the best.. the food was nice , the service wasn’t great..

Brilliant all round!

Food was nice service was good. Probably on the expensive side. Unsure if that is the price for the location or not. 6 pound for a bottle of Peroni seems overpriced. The food was nice though and the service was good. Can’t complain if that’s the price that’s the price for the area.

We visited this place for a pre-show meal, the food was good and I would visit again, we were let down by staff not asking us if we wanted a supplementary drink and they were so busy- due to possibly the pre-show guests.

Staff attentive, service good and food very good

Fantastic food and great service. We had a lovely evening, recommended.

Great tasty food, friendly and warm staff together with a lovely atmosphere x

First visit for food and to be honest seemed like the boss wasn't in ?! Very young staff with little and no interest apart from serving and chatting and getting drinks for the other youngsters- nachos burnt and the pie and chips had one piece of soggy broccoli - sorry , first and last for me ! Ps tell the cannudling couple at the kitchen hatch to take it outdoors next time
