Reviews in Manchester

A good meal at a very reasonable price especially if you use the £6.95 menu 3 courses included, a great place to eat and chat no rush, especially during the week.

Been many times always a very good meal with friendly staff who will help in any way. Not expensive. Very hard to beat.

Excellent food, shame that the portion sizes were slightly on the small side.

I can't believe Derek thinks that there is plenty choice for vegetarians. The choice for vegetarians when I went this month was Tuscan Tart (on the permanent menu) or vegetable curry (on the June menu). Two choices is not "plenty". There are always only two choices. Unless of course you count a plate of vegetables. We went last week, and didn't fancy the tart or the curry, so opted for just vegetables - but they tried to charge us more than if we'd had a steak with them! Instead of charging us the set price of around £6.99 for a starter, main course and sweet, they thought it appropriate to charge us separately for our starters, vegetables and sweets which came to more than if we were charged for a steak off the set menu. The Owls is cheap and cheerfully great for carnivores, but don't try to send vegetarians there!

We had a table for three on Friday to celebrate my birthday and also my daughter's recent qualified teaching status. The food was wonderful, the best we have had in the north west! The scallops were cooked perfectly and it was a pleasure to be able to choose from the wine's of the month with their complimentary descriptions. Marvellous evening and good value for well cooked food!

My family have visited The Yew Tree on more than one occasion and it is down to the friendly service and lovely,tasty home cooked meals provided. Congratulations to the chef who maintains a consistently high standard.

Best chinese outside of Manchester.first class food first class service, highly recommended.The staff are always attentive and Leo is as usual "mine host". David & Michelle (Rochdale)

we have been eating in asian fusion since it opened its doors.... its a great place to eat brill service, generous portions we always end up taking a doggy bag home for afters, wouldnt have a curry any where else well done boys

I used to dine here when Alan & Karen owned it. However when they left it went a bit down hill, yes the carvery went. However the carvery is now back and only £11.00 for a 3 course meal. I have been back there 5 times now and thoroughly enjoy it. Bar meals are excellent also. Well done to the new owners

Very very expensive!!! Service was interesting too... we were told that our choice of "rare" for a ribeye steak was not acceptable!!!! Food is good but don't believe all the hype. It's not worth what it costs but we'll probably go back at some stage since it probably is the best steak house in Manchester (although we haven't tried that many.)

I have eaten in the Leeds branch of Chaophraya several times and it was amazing every time. We went to the Manchester branch on a saturday for my birthday. The food was good, very fresh and full of amazing flavours, but definitely less plentiful than in Leeds. One other thing that really disappointed me was the liquor coffee! At Leeds they make it on a small trolley right next to your table and it's very entertaining! So I persuaded everyone to try one and after spotting the trolley near the bar thought I was in for the same treat. Sadly the coffees were just brought over as in every other restaurant and we never saw them being made. So all in all the best Thai in Manchester by far, but I'm hoping they take on a few more ideas from the original branch to give it that extra special something...

Great place to go with a party - brilliant atmosphere and the staff always go out of their way to ensure you have a good time. Try the Cheesecake - the waiter recommended it and true to his word it was amazing!!

A friend and i visited this restaurant due to praising reviews. The food was divine, and the service was good although their was only one waiter serving several tables. We sat in the lounge area above the restaurant whilst waiting for meal to arrive (which was a nice touch!!!)highly recommend to dine here although a little pricey for a Thursday night out for your tea. (two mains and a bottle of wine £50)But would definitely return for a special occasion. Not a place really suitable for larger parties due to the size, but perfect for civilised meal for about four.

We've been here twice since it opened and have to say it makes a nice alternative to the other Italian restaurants in the area. Food is great, service is very good from the owner, relaxing ambience. I can only say keep it up cos this place has massive potential!

We had a very pleasant evening at Casa Nostra.The staff were attentive but not intrusive nothing was too much trouble as they adapted the food for my dietry needs(a gluten free veggie)I had feta salad and veg rissotto and my friend garlic bread with tomato and chillies and spaghetti carbonara it was lovely , my friend said it was the best garlic bread and carbonara she had eaten in an italian in England(best one was in Rome)I recommend this restaurant it has a pleasant atmosphere and you come away with a full tummy , and you get your moneys worth.

I've eaten at Chaophraya both in my lunch hour and in an evening. Both times the service and food have been out of this world. Chaophraya has fast become my favourite restaurant in Manchester.

We eat here regularly because of the excellent quality of food and service. A fantastic restaurant!

Went for the first time June 07. It's great to have such a nice restaurant in the centre of Wigan. Food, service and surroundings are excellent. will definitely be going again.
