Reviews in Manchester

Unfortunately myself and 4 female friends went along, on the back of strong recommendations. We were highly disappointed. It was mid week and we had gone along for the early bird menu, only to discover this didn't exist. All courses fell short of ordinary and excited about a stew in ale 2of us were presented with indigestible lumps of gristle and my 3rd friend had a bowl of no gristle let alone meat, and nowhere was there even a sniff of ale. In fact I do believe the chef had misunderstood lentils for ale?? Perhaps he had a hangover??? I could go on, however when we did say we were not satisfied, we were just met with an apology. Feeling aggrieved , one of our party felt it only fair to raise our disappointment with the owners. Unfortunately this appeared to fall on deaf ears. Not one to complain unnecessarily I find it only right to raise our dissatisfaction for other future clients to get a full story. For one we will not be returning.

Jackies Chippy is the best in Manchester, the food is great and the price is just right. You only need to order 1 lot of chips and it will feed an average family of 4 and its under £1 you can't beat that anywhere else.

I love chaophraya! the atmosphere, the people and the food is amazing!! So many flavours, the taste buds explode!! I love the authenticity too, the Thai cushions in the bar are a great touch

Do not eat here!!! health hazard and they've just been fined £70,000 for poor hygeine!!! http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/s/1186484_disgraceful_chinese_restaurant_fined_70000

Absolutely brilliant!!! As an Indian I'm really fussy about "Indian" restaurants, but this place is one of my all time favourites. Food is authentic Nepalese, great tasting and great value. The staff are really friendly, service quick and always with a smile. I travel 30 miles to get here because I think it's worth it.

We ate there over Xmas with good friends of ours and we had a great night. Top location, really nice decor, good service and great food..

Review of Akbar's restaurant, Manchester. I visited at the end of December 2009. Although the service was good, and the starters were fairly decent, the main meal was a complete let down. I ordered chicken dish. They used a mixed bag of chicken meat. The menu clearly described the dish as being made from chicken breast meat. That was clearly not the case. They had used other parts of the chicken e.g. leg etc. Also the Naan was a bit stale. Overall, just a bit too much on the greasy side.

On the 25th of December 09 me and my friend went to lotus. I was amazed they served banna leaves meals. I had lovely tasty banna leaf meal. We had alot of varieties, different types authentic malaysian and south indians dishes. The meal was served in a banana leaf with varities of vegetables, poppadom. My selection of dish was prawn cooked in red malaysian sauce with crab curry

Our first visit to this Malaysian and south Indian cuisine. The choice was excellent both as far as the Malaysian and South Indian food was concerned. The starter satay, honey chiken wings, chicken 65 and the fish fry was superb. the main course nasi pataya, nasi goreng kampong and the fish briyani was something not to be missed. An elderly man at the restaurant took so much of effort explaining the menu to us as first timer and we immediately knew what to order. The service and the taste of the food, I would say is first class. I would personally recommend this restaurant to any one.

This is a shit pleace i have ever been recently...someone in the kitchen shout at the staff....they working like a slave....When i learnt he is the boss , god damn it,,,no more again,,, do not respect people...

We had banana leaf lunch Southern Indian/Malaysian style on Christmas Day and I must admit that the variety and quality of the food served definitely did satisfy my cravings. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys or want to try authentic Malaysian and Southern Indian specialities.

Excellent food as always. The tandoori haddock was absolutely fabulous in the way it turned this bland English fish into something so deliciously tasty. Highly recommended!

For a largre party ... Awful! :(

Great restaurant, authentic Thai and Vietnamese cuisine. Also extremely good value, i'll definitely be going back for more

I have been going to Jai Kathmandu for the best part of 9 years, I have taken all my mates there, and have had a number of family functions there. The food is brilliant, i am vegetarian and the choice provided for vegetarians is brilliant, the Paneer Shaslik , Aloo Tikka pieces, mutter Paneer and dips are all fantastic, the sauces compliment the food very well, especially the mint sauce. If you are thinking of taking friends or family to this restaurant, dont think twice, Fantastic, service, family run, and excellent quality of food.

This restaurant is a little bit special. It is part of a small family owned chain. I took my wife and Dad here on Mon 21st of Dec 09. I already know about Bruno Cabrellis Ice cream which is probably the best you can get, which is made by them. The atmosphere in there is fantastic for a Monday night. While we were there Liz Dawn from Coronation street came in, A famous local artist came in with Family and Bruno himself added to the evening, being his cheerful and friendly self. The food was fabulous, we had a range of foods from fish to pizza, but the sweets are something else especially the ice cream. They make it themselves!!!!!

HEY PEEPZ, I WOULDD RECOMMEND U THIS TAKEAWAY AS THE FOOD IS ABSOLUTELY FINGER LICKING!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE BEEN THEIR CUSTOMER FOR MANY YEARS NOW.

We had a meal here tonight, they have extended their restaurant. We found the food very tasty and fresh, although did not like the customer service including wait for service.
