“Best sandwich shop in South Manchester by a mile, have been coming here for well over 10 years. Lynn and the team are fantastic, always happy to see you. The food is outstanding and exceptionaly good value. I HIGHLY reccomend a Shark Special with bacon, although I've tried nearly all the menu over the years and there is not a single item I didn't enjoy. Do call ahead for quick pickup, it is busy between 11.30-2.”

“From placing the order with a lovely lady on the phone to collecting our delicious Chinese, this is one of the best Chinese meals we've ever had. The prices were amazing, the taste was incredible (we had 2 Dim Sum platters, a chow mein and a special fried rice, all for just £26.60) So excited to have a new fave takeaway!”

“A great fish and chip shop. Great prices and generous helpings.”

“I highly recommend this place for those who eat vegetarian or vegan. The food is delicious, especially the masala dosa, chana masala and poppadoms, and chutney tray. Also, the dessert carrot halwa with ice cream. The staff were friendly, and the dining area as well as the deli area was very impressive. I would come to visit again soon.”

“It is such a lovely place! The staff is very welcoming and takes a great cares ofvits customer. The food is delicious and it is a very good value for money! This is one of the best Thai place I have been to so far. Would definitely go back and recommend as well.”

“I recently dined at Sud Pasta and was thoroughly impressed by all the dishes we eat, the house sugo pasta dish was undoubtedly the highlight and was one of the best pasta dishes I've had the pleasure of tasting. The flavours were rich and perfectly balanced, leaving a lasting impression on my taste buds. To complement the meal, we enjoyed a reasonably priced 1-liter carafe of red wine, which added to the overall delightful experience. Highly recommed this place!”

“Stepping into Turquoise in Cheadle is like being warmly hugged by a restaurant that knows its own character inside out. The décor isn’t trying to impress with chandeliers or glitter thankfully but instead wraps you in warmth with local artwork on the walls that feels like it’s been chosen by someone who actually likes art not someone who just Googled “restaurant paintings.” It’s inviting homely and gives you the sense that whether you’re bringing the family for a big feast or sneaking in for a romantic dinner for two you’re in the right place. Now the food. This is where Turquoise flexes its muscles. Take the full English. It’s not a plate of sadness and regret it’s a proper spread. The sausages aren’t your usual limp Richmonds. No these beauties taste like they’ve just been pinched from a farmer who still sings to his livestock. I don’t even like sausages usually but these have that magic balance meaty juicy and full of intent. And if you fancy they’ll happily swap one out for a Turkish sausage which adds a little drama to the plate like inviting a flamenco dancer to your breakfast table. Their Mediterranean and Turkish dishes carry the same ethos generous but never sloppy bold but never brash. You can tell nothing’s rushed here. It all tastes fresh like someone actually cared as they stirred the pot. The staff are relaxed happy and with that ease that says “We’d rather be here than anywhere else.” They don’t hover like suspicious pigeons nor do they vanish when you need them they’re just right. And the value. Well it’s excellent. Other places might leave you nursing the sting of buyer’s remorse but here you walk away content your wallet intact and your taste buds gently applauding. Turquoise doesn’t just feed you it reminds you that food cooked with love and pride makes everything better. And if you’re lucky the sausages might even wink at you on the way out”

“Best Indian I’ve had in Salford/Monton/Swinton by far. Really friendly and helpful when I called and gave advice on dishes as it was the first time we’d had takeaway from there. 100% recommend and found our new regular!”

“Wow, this place is amazing! This is the first time my partner (Kieran) and I have ordered from here, and it most certainly won't be the last. The chicken in the korma was beautiful - so tender with absolutely no fatty bits. My partner said the same about his lamb too. The authentic pilau rice.. the garlic and coriander naan which was so garlicky... the heavenly salt and pepper chips - everything was quite simply PERFECT. They even gave us some free tikka bites, along with a lovely handwritten message welcoming us to the place. The delivery guy was so friendly too. I simply can't fault this place - and that's coming from someone who can be quite picky. All that's left to say now, is THANK YOU!”

“It's been 9 months now, that i have been in the UK, had around 7-8 Biryani's but hadn't had a biryani like this. very tasty and full of ghee. loved it. very relaxing atmosphere. Had a peaceful meal. The service was quite fast and the manager was very friendly. As their name says, they do satisfy people with food.”

“Visited here today and had a great meal. The Gurkha beer is really nice, I told myself I'd only have one as they're 660ml but I ended up having 2 as they were so good. Ended up having the mixed main as a starter but if I went again I'd just have several portions of the lamb chops, the rest of the meat was very nice (quite spicy for anyone worried about spice) but the lamb chops were amazing. Had the duck masala main and the lamb Gurkha curry, would highly recommend the Gurkha Curry it was fantastic, the duck was nice it's different than most Curries so if you want something more aromatic it's something to try. Bread was nice, poppadoms nice and the chutneys were good too. Between 2 of us spent £77 but had separate sides, rice's and effectively 3 main courses and a couple of beers/soft drinks so I'd say it was good value for the quality and quantity of meat. Give it a try, you won't regret it.”

“Best Indian Takeaway in United Kingdom. Try before you buy (only joking) try and you won't be disappointed. Highly recommended. Multiple delivery options available. Warm and friendly atmosphere.”

“Great food pleasant staff highly recommend”

“10/10 highly recommended. Can tell it’s a family ran business and all staff are lovely especially the little brother who lets you play with his Lego whilst you wait! Hands down the best Chinese food in Withington (and we’ve tried a few!) so pleased it’s on our doorstep”

“Very nice and friendly lady behind the counter. Even though I got there 5, 10 minutes before closing they took my orde and she helped me go through the menu and choose what I want. The food is delicious, loved all of it but the hot and sour soup was especially delicious. Great food, great customer service from the nice lady and I also like the look of the establishment. I strongly recommend it.”

“Amazing food and service! Their burger can challenge Five Guys and Archie's all day long! With regards to service, it's immaculate as it's operated by the owners who cares for their customer. If you are around in Bolton, this is highly recommended.”

“First visit and not the last ! Food was excellent Teriyaki Salmon for me with Yakisoba Noodles for a main course accompanied with a bento box with miso soup. "Father's day" treat. My daughter had Teriyaki beef with a bento box. I sampled the beef and it was amazingly tender. We started with a crispy platter to share & a couple of ichiban beers....no room for desserts ! Value for money £47. Clean and nice atmosphere, friendly staff.”

“We have just had a lovely family celebration The food was good service was excellent Definitely would recommend this restaurant”

“Can't believe how quiet it always is in here, the food is incredible and very, very tasty. Such a nice place. Plus the perks of it being quiet means you receive excellent service.”

“Lovely clean establishment . Nice cosy atmosphere staff very friendly and the food is amazing not too mention the coffee was delicious all In all really nice place for food drink and they also do alcoholic beverages . Will defiantly be calling again .”

“Great food, lovely friendly staff.”

“The food is amazing, the staff are always friendly, helpful, honest and nothing is to much trouble for them”

“Please ignore the low reviews because they are simply not true. I've had many curries but Mister Ali's hits the spot! Me and my friends spend the evening dining here and the staff were amazing, the food was fabulous and always has been. I came here many years ago and the service and commitment to the food has not changed. Keep doing what you are doing, ignore the haters and thankyou so much!”

“Full marks for the team at Istanbul. Very friendly service, perfectly cooked food and all at a reasonable price. We've been before and we'll be going again and the atmosphere is always really relaxed despite it being very busy. Fantastic Turkish restaurant, thank you to the team who looked after us both.”

“Arrived around 5:50 pm on a Saturday evening — busy enough with most tables filled, but still comfortable. We sat down and ordered a Pho and Summer Rolls. Barely five minutes later, our food was on the table. Having tried a lot of decent Vietnamese spots around Manchester since Viet Shack moved from the Arndale, I hadn’t visited this location until now. I have to say, it’s very impressive — the Pho was full of rich, aromatic flavours, and the Summer Rolls were fresh and beautifully presented. Service was friendly and efficient despite the busy atmosphere, making the whole experience even better. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Ancoats and craving authentic Vietnamese food.”

“I got a delivery so can’t rate the atmosphere but I can tell you that the food was absolutely delicious was also hot and ready to eat apart from the fried chicken but I didn’t mind. Delivery was quick but was a bit pricey as I paid £25 in total for curry mutton rice and peas and coleslaw and fried chicken but that’s uber eats I guess. But was delicious so THANK YOU”

“First time trying this place and it was delicious!! Had the share box and honestly couldn't get enough of it! All the staff there super friendly! Will highly recommend and for sure will be returning!! Thanks guys”

“Absolutely outstanding! I came to them with a custom request to make a special celebration a reality. They did it 10/10. Special round bday with flowers and a cake was absolutely amazing thanks to the crew. Food absolutely delicious, amazing atmosphere and that special touch on service makes everything possible. If you want to go beyond any standards talk to Danilo. He and his crew will make it happen. Thank you!”
