Always top quality here. I am a big curry nut and Third Eye is easily the most consistently brilliant restaurant I've ever visited. The food is incredibly tasty and varied between dishes, none of the nondescript soupy slop that can sometimes be served in Rusholme. The service is always friendly and accommodating, and the price is almost laughably cheap (My wife and I regularly go there and eat for under £30 inc drinks). Only negatives are the size of the venue, which sometimes means you're squeezed around a table like a sardine, and the amount of time that you're given to eat your meal, as they like to turn the tables around quite frequently. However these are just compromises to keep the price down. If you're a fan of food over all else, then third eye is the place to go to. Be adventurous with you're choices too.

best curry i have ever had

Great to see Robert Owen Brown back in town and doing what he does best. The Lancashire hot pot was comfort food with a capital C while the fish and chips were crisp, tasty and generously portioned. For dessert I was drawn to the eccles cake with butterscotch sauce and was not disappointed. The Angel was quiet on our weekday early afternoon visit but I can see it getting very busy most of the time.

It was the best curry for a long while, highly recommended, beats any on the curry mile!

I've been to this restaurant before & its class, my family also come with me (also to Sagar's- HQ @ Clayton Green) My disappointment is that after regularly visiting this restaurant & spending plenty of money for a high quality service, I'd just now booked a table of 8 for me & my family... The call was answered "yeah" I'd asked to book a table "wrong number mate" (with people screaming @ each other in the background!) He wasn't interested in what I had to say with his one word answers: yeah? what? when? bye! After 20mins thought, I've changed my mind & cancelled... Note to Cinnamon: LEARN SOME MANNERS, THEY'RE FREE OF CHARGE!

We visited the Olive Garden on wed 8th oct. We choose from the new pizza and pasta menu. The food was excellent and good value for money at £4.50 the portions were huge. The waiter Aziz was very friendly we never has to wait long for our food. The head chef Roberto came out to see us when we had finished to check if we had enjoyed our food. Which we did you will definitely be seeing us again soon. Thank You for a great night.

We went out this weekend to celebrate a friend's birthday. The best surprise was when they gave a beautiful birthday cake to my friend. We ordered the banquet and it was delicious and tasty. I was so full after the meal. The service was top notch and also very friendly. Loved the restaurant it's got such a good atmosphere. I'll be back. Thank you

This really is my Special Restaurant, it's a wonderful retreat. Everything about the Nam Ploy experience is pure perfection.

Went in for a meal in the week early evening and the place wasn't very busy,i ordered from the so called a la carte menu and my partner had the carvery that seemed like great value but was obviously mostly frozen vegetables and bought in frozen Yorkshire puddings and the meat was rubbery like it had been microwaved,when advertised fresh local produce,i am sure there is a law about that somewhere? My main meal from the menu came,a steak,which was like leather and over cooked,after asking for it to be medium,also the table and carpets where quite dirty which didn't make me enjoy the meal too well,i would recommend NEW management as the service was slow .On my way out of the car park i saw who i thought was the manager stood outside the door of the kitchen with kitchen staff having a cigarette,now is that something you would like to see before or after you have eaten there?Won't be going again,and have heard lots of bad opinions from other people who have been there too.

I only write this as Sam & his team deserve every credit for superb food and good service. They have created a varied menu, daring to include more unusual dishes as well as the normal crowd pleasers, to delightful gastronomic effect.They appear to really care about good food and the result is quality on the plate believe me.

we arrived at 1630 and opted for the meze, for my wife and i and the set menu between ,the 2 kids. my eldest was able to share with us. the waiter was 100% attentive and knew what dips (can't think of the correct term) went with each main. the food was just superb, tasty and varied. finished with the figs and cheesecake - fab

Can you please send me a list of Christmas dinner on my email, Need to know what foods list for Christmas dinner on December 2008

Enjoyed an excellent lunch recently at The Swinging Bridge restaurant. Food delicious and also not over expensive. Can't wait to go again. Kath and Keith

Been many times....always excellent freshly cooked food and good service, reasonably priced and gets our vote as consistently the best restaurant in the city.... spicy salsa the best anywhere

I would just like to say its been a long time since iv been to such a lovely pub! the food was exceptional as were the cask ales, not badly priced either. and the service from the young girls was also very pleasant. but i have to say that one thing let our whole experience down... the so called manager she was rude, scruffy and down right lazy which was a shame because other than that i would rate it 5 ***** and over all lovely pub.

We went here for my birthday the other day - a group of 24 people. They were happy to let us have the table all evening, the service was great and friendly, we had the a la carte menu so we could cater for various diets/food allergies, but the kitchen coped magnificently despite the restaurant being very busy. Everyone commented on how lovely the food was, how good the service was, how good the atmosphere was. We all had a great time. And I found the chairs comfortable (nice as I have a bad back and some Italian restaurants go for those uncomfortable wooden ones). 5*.

Went last month, shocking service, there was a table of 10 next to us on the verge of walking out due to the appalling service. overpriced food and not much choice on the menu. there's much better restaurants around and far, far cheaper, Mr Gallimore should stick to fish and chips

Had a meal here the other day and it was great. The food was very good, the service was excellent and the staff were very friendly and cheerful. They provided a high chair for my 2yr old daughter who loved the attention she got from the staff. I have to say the presentation is 5 * and I will be making it my regular curry eating haunt from now on....... PS the prices are very reasonable too!
