Authentic flavors in Manchester

“Our first visit and we weren't disappointed. Chose from the early bird menu. Good portion size and very yummy. Helpful, friendly attentive staff. Will definitely be going again.”

“Fantastic authentic Indian food. Such a hidden gem that more people should be aware about. It is a husband and wife who run this place and you can tell they put their heart and soul in to each dish and the service they give is attentive and really friendly. Definitely recommend as a change to your normal curry house!”

“Best chippy anywhere I've ever known. Literally. Lovely family too. :)”

“I visited Bombay to Mumbai last week and the experience was fantastic. The food was absolutely amazing, specially the chaat and starters were delicious and full of authentic flavors. The customer service was excellent, the staff were attentive and welcoming. The owners are very nice and friendly, which made the visit even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great Indian food and a warm atmosphere!Thank you.”

“This place is great! The staff were very helpful when we asked about vegan options and the food was absolutely delicious. I would definitely order here again ☺️”

“I ordered the Phở Đặc Biệt, and it was really good! The broth was deeply aromatic and bursting with rich flavors—hands down the best pho I’ve had in a long time. The Cà Phê Special was loaded with a fantastic mix of rare steak, shin of beef, beef flank, chicken, pork belly, pork roll, and king prawns. The portion size was very generous. The staff were friendly and attentive. If you’re looking for a standout pho experience, this place is an absolute must-try.”

“I had biryani at the restaurant and it was absolutely delicious. There’s a girl named Sonam working there who treats customers very well – her service was excellent. I also tried the avocado cheese dish, and it was amazing. Overall, a great experience”

“From the moment we sat down, the whole experience just flowed—the kind of easy, confident service that lets you settle in and focus on the important stuff: the food. We kicked things off with the starter platter, and honestly? Every single item stole a tiny piece of my heart. Fresh, bold, nothing hanging around in the kitchen too long—the dishes landed on our table quicker than my nephew spots Pidgey (my pet pigeon) on the bannister. Then came the lamb shank… unbelievably tender. It didn’t just “fall off the bone”—it practically handed in its resignation. Silky, rich, and cooked with the sort of patience I wish my smart meter had. My wife’s dishes were just as impressive. Every bite looked like it transported her somewhere peaceful—meat and chicken both juicy enough to make you rethink every dry dish you’ve ever tolerated in life. I didn’t manage to grab photos of everyone else’s food, but trust me, the table was full of happy faces and clean plates. If you’re thinking about coming here for dinner, do it. The food’s on point, the service feels natural, and the décor gives the place a warm, modern charm. Fully recommend.”

“Tried the chicken steak and a pizza today. The steak was perfectly cooked and juicy. The pizza dough was out of the world and it was perfectly baked without burning the vegetables on the top which usually is the case with most places.”

“Delicious food for a great price. We got the sharing platter for 2 and it was huge! The staff were also lovely - all round would definitely recommend”

“Food was SO good. Came with a friend, we were both craving Ethiopian, got the spicy doro wat and the mild lamb, and both were incredible. We practically licked the plates clean. The injera was clearly fresh and wonderfully spongy, lamb was very tender and doro wat is one of the best I’ve had outside Ethiopia. Food is reasonably priced, portions are generous, the decor is homely and our waiters were super friendly, will definitely drop by again next time!! :)”

“Wonderful restaurant, lovely staff Excellent chef. Very friendly sells alcohol, first class place to dine. Recommend the biriani, rogan josh, butter chicken and chicken korma. Haven't tried anything else. Kulfi is a must too. It's wise to book in advance if you are a large party.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Viet Guy, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious—packed with authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, and beautifully presented. Every dish we tried was a burst of flavor, and you could really tell the care and attention that went into preparing each one. The service was equally impressive. The staff were warm, friendly, and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. They really went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and taken care of. If you’re looking for amazing Vietnamese cuisine paired with top-notch service, Viet Guy is the place to go. I can’t recommend it highly enough! That should highlight both the food and service in a positive, enthusiastic way!”

“delicious food, staff were friendly and knowledgeable and happy to help. decent prices, will definitely be coming back”

“Lovely friendly place in a run down area. This is our first visit to Manchester so relied on Google to advise us of where decent to eat and it didn't disappoint. Amazing greek food, reasonable price and staff were lovely. More than happy to recommend”

“Staying one night in Manchester, and saw this Caribbean place, so had to give it a try, I got the rice and peas with goat curry, and a lamb patty. The food tasted so good! I got the normal portion which was just right, the mutton just fell apart it was so tender, I would highly recommend this place for your Caribbean fix. The music in the place has be wanting to move, the only downfall was that I had a long walk back to my hotel, but the food was worth the walk”

“Always great food here - Fresh and really nice tasting food - This is definitely my favourite place to get curry from. Never had a bad experience so they deserve 5 stars - Thanks”

“Food was amazing! Great portion sizes and lovely service as well. Will be a regular spot for me in future!”

“The Malaysian restaurant to go in Manchester region. Great variety of Malaysian food available with good portion. Starters wise the satay, rojak and roti canai with curry is pretty good although the price for the satay is a little on the higher side. Mee Goreng and Nasi Lemak both are pretty good main options. Good variety of Malaysian drinks available as well. If looking for Malaysian restaurant in Manchester this would be their one to go. Limited parking outside. Sometimes can get a little busy during weekends so might need to book prior but otherwise seats are usually available. Waiting time varies with crowd.”

“Wow! What an incredible spot, the momos have an authentic Nepali flavour and the staff are incredibly kind, generous and welcoming. The service was excellent. I highly recommend trying the ribs absolutely delicious!”

“Great food, friendly staff. Always felt very welcome. The owner will try and accommodate you even when busy. Would highly recommend!”

“Ignore the one bad review, maybe the restaurant was having a bad day. Second time eating here. Food is great, good quantity, really good quality, nicely presented, cooked, and served promptly. Really can't see what else they can do to make it better. And no this isn't a paid review. It's well worth a visit, support your local restaurants!”

“Had a great meal at Street Food. The service was friendly and fast. I had the beef teriyaki with noodles — really flavourful and well cooked. The Hong Kong–style food was delicious, and the iced coffee was amazing too. Definitely recommend!”

“Great place. Staff know their menu and helped us choose. Pasta dishes were hearty and rich. Lovely atmosphere, feels busy but cosy.”

Price was acceptable for that's type a restaurant staff were very lovely and friendly. Look forward to the next time we are in the area and go back.”

“Very good portions, tasty food. Cannot go wrong with this Indian. Diverse range to food. I always order online and collect it. I would say price is good as the portions are very generous. Staff have always been very friendly and chatty when I’ve gone to collect the food.”
