Reviews in Manchester

Yuzu food was lovely. Service was really friendly and they gave us a free taster of a Japanese chicken stew which was delicious, then told us all the vegetables that were in it. It was so nice, shame that it was so quiet on a Saturday night. GO!! It's really great.

Had dinner here on Saturday. Best 'curry' I've had in the North West. Just over £50 for four of us including beers. Food was fab. We're all veggie and there was so much veggie choice that, for a change, we found it difficult to choose! We had different starters and mains from each other, most of which we hadn't tried before. Staff were lovely. Would travel over from Liverpool especially.

We eaten at this place last friday evening,15/10/10,3 off us. Got two starters to share,very nice lamb shashlik,and a fish starter. Very poor service,my son asked for a drink that never arrived,we asked again and got it,my wife asked for a jug of water,never got it,the worse was when the waiter dropped a meal of lamb handi on the table,they did not change the dish and just put a napkin over the mess on the table.We was never offered another meal,they just took the dish away then brought it back! What lamb handi was left in the dish was very nice but the service was very poor.also they had no slimline tonic to go with my wifes gin,overall i would say the food is okay,but the service was very poor and i will not be returning in a hurry.they did not even offer a discount.

The service was excellent, efficient and polite, and the food was, well, OK. It was a little bit 'curse of the orange sauce' with 5 dishes coming out the same colour and not far off the same flavour...Jalfrezi, saag paneer, chana bhagi, karahi and one other. Quantities were huge but I'm a less is more kind of a girl. It was reasonably busy - it was Friday night, and the decor is OK. I like the open kitchen. With so many good curry houses to choose from now in and around Manchester, that charge around the same (for food at least, the beer prices were very reasonable), I wouldn't go back.

After reading other recommendations on various sites about Spicy Hut, we thought we would give it a try. We was not disappointed. There was no pressure to come in, which is always nice, once we entered we were met with a warm and friendly greeting and asked where we would like to sit (we was earlier than most diners and soon it soon started to fill up). The waiter was polite and courteous. We ordered Chicken tikka karahi and cicken rogan josh, pilau rice and a keema nan. The main meal was delicious,The karahi had a smoky taste too it, different to the normal tikka marinate but was pleasantly different with just the right balance of spice and flavour. Helen had the rogan josh and was equally enjoyed with that slight twist to the norm. Highly recommended, definitely go again a very relaxing place to eat....try it

I've eaten in the restaurant and had takeaway from this one and enjoyed my meals every time the staff are really friendly, I would definitely recommend =)

Visited this last night and was pretty disappointed. Having eaten in the restaurant a few weeks before, we expected good things of the cafe bar too. My main course - mackerel with beetroot dauphinoise was tasty but tiny. It came with one small fish fillet, a few sprigs of watercress and the dauphinoise was slightly bigger than a large walnut. I'm not a big eater, but it only It took me five minutes to finish this and I was still hungry after. The dish cost around £11, which is by no means expensive, however mackerel is probably one of the cheapest fish on the market. and any self-respecting restaurant would serve two fillets as a main. I spoke with both waiting staff about the portion size. One just said 'oh right' and the other winked at me and said 'I know' !! Won't be going again, which is a shame because I do like the taste of the food.

La Roma is a relaxed Italian restaurant, the food is great & the service is always excellent (its our local as its within walking distance). If you like your food with a bit of a kick I would recommend the arrabiata. If you fancy something other than pizza or pasta, the Pollo Tricolore is really tasty. Its a lovely place to eat and enjoy before or after dinner drinks, with family, friends or for a romantic meal for two. Enjoy x

don't know whether I should do this as it could become too popular. Without question this place is one of the best restaurants in the country. Prices are unbelievable,food is superb, setting wonderful all it needs to give that finishing touch is proper napkins(I hate cheap paper ones)

My wife and I really liked Nutters and wanted to organise a series of evenings with friends there. We rang to speak to the manager to see if there were any special arrangements we could make bringing so many people and to say he was rude would be an understatement.... so much so he's put us off the restaurant period.

Excellent reasonably priced food. Amazing. One of the best Italians I have been to.

We have tried Sottovento on a few occasions but heard that it was now under new management. We have visited Sottovento again and we were not disappointed, food was fantastic, service excellent and we would recommend to anyone. We will definitely be visiting again.

august 2010 had a lovely meal good service,sauces and rice very flavoursome and the prices are reasonable.

The venue was very welcoming, though the services was very bad and a staff member took my plate without me saying i was done, felt we where being rushed out. Then the lights kept going on and off, Very busy not suitable for a romantic meal,nor would i recommend it, Had to leave our table to pay the bill, The wine is over priced,

what can I say, I have dined in restaurants across the world; this was a truly 'feel-good' dining experience. Can't wait to return. Top Class, Top Marks.

Owls at Standish reception looks very posh everybody dressed very smart mainly older people though. Menu was 3 courses for 6.95 which made me wonder about the quality. For starter I chose the whole black pudding with mustard and salad, when it came there was 2 slices of cheap black pudding with some horse raddish sauce. Then I had the Beef Steak Pie described as chunks of tender beef with rich gravy and puff pastry crust. It was like a tin of smart price oxtail soup with a crust over it I found 2 pieces of meat in there and they were fat and grissle sent it back and told we would get a credit on the bill for it. Vegetables served in a dish boiled potatoes cabbage and carrots were ok but no butter or gravy so very dry. Dessert was rich chocolate mousse…or a tiny pot of angel delight really. When we paid the bill they had knocked a pound off for the crappy pie, which was probably more than it was worth. I would advise not to bother with the 3 course dinner menu & I won't be going back, would rather pay a bit more for better quality food.

the chef's specials (the Handy and Matoke) are the best I've had anywhere - just nothing like the boring fare served in 99% of curry houses. These are lovingly prepared dishes that are about half the price they ought to be. I've eaten in some very expensive Indian restaurants and never tried anything as good as the Handy or Matoke. Ignore the decor though!

The food is very wholesome and satisfying, but the staff go that extra mile on all occasions
