I have been eating at this restaurant for over a decade. It is always brilliant. The food and the service is consistently excellent. No other restaurant can compare on price or quality. The Sunday lunch 3 course for under £5 is just as well cooked and served :)

I have eaten at this restaurant for many, many years. The quality of the food never changes and in my view is the best in the UK. The food is authentic, the portions very generous and easily the best value for money in Manchester. Favourite dishes: chicken noodle soup, chicken lettuce wrap, aromatic crispy duck, char sui pork in sechuan sauce, chicken in OK sauce,beef in black bean sauce on crispy noodles, special casserole and the truly wonderful WAH TAP FISH. Try the sublime lunch menu for £4.50!

China City is and excellent restaurant. In the week you can get a 3 course mean for £4.50. On a Saturday it is only 50p extra. Service is excellent and the food is always piping hot and freshly cooked. I have tried several other restaurants in China Town but always end up going back to China City.

We have been coming to this restaurant for over ten years (no joke) and after having tried others in the area I would not go anywhere else. The surroundings are clean and warm - nothing trendy but the food is fresh, hot and excellent value for money. The staff are always extremely courtesy and friendly. Of all the chinese in Manchester this is far my favourite

This is our preferred restaurant above all in China Town. Service is always superb, food is excellent and always hot. Now going into our second year of eating there for evenings out or a snack during the daytime. Excellent prices and a huge menu to choose from.
Go here if you want quick friendly service in a very quiet surrounding.

China City is by far the best Chinese restaurant in Chinatown or in Manchester. The food is top class, always hot, always good portions and always friendly and polite staff. I have been going in this restaurant for years with my partner and we never fail not to enjoy our meal. The £4.95 deal is great if you go between noon and 4pm but anytime there you can be guaranteed a lovely meal and a warm and friendly welcome in a traditional Chinese restaurant that's not beyond the cheapest budget

It was outrageously good. It is the best restaurant in the whole of china town and I have literally tried everyone. The service was brilliant my personal favourite is Kenny. He is a friendly and jolly man who is always up for a laugh. The food presentation is neat and very appetizing and I recommend the lemon chicken with egg fried rice. It is bummage.

I've been off work for two weeks over Easter and by week two a little bored - myself and the missus are used to eating in Chinatown so I thought I'd check out some of the £4.50 dinner specials round Chinatown - all were good but China City won it for me. Portions were good especially the main course and a really good choice of starters and main course. My first time at China City and next on our night time visit to Chinatown. One draw back on all -can't wait for 2007 and non-smoking!

China City has now been totally refurbished and so is now much brighter (Beige), has new furniture, new bathrooms, and a new style of menu though the content has not changed. The staff are the same, but with new black uniforms. The service and the food are forever still brilliant, and the cost is also still the same. I recommend that if you haven't been for a while, or you had misconceptions about this restaurant before, then it's worth going back even if it's just for a nosy!!
