Delicious in Wilmslow

“A truly wonderful place for an authentic Italian meal and fabulous atmosphere. The staff are friendly and attentive and the atmosphere is cosy and welcoming. Although there are a few Domus Italia or Casa Italia restaurants in Manchester the Didsbury one does not feel like it part of a chain of faceless restaurants. It has a family run vibe and individual atmosphere. It's not a big place but that makes it so much nicer.”

“We went here yesterday and was told they are closing with immediate effect and that we were the last ever customers. This News absolutely devastated us but they went out with a bang. Food was absolutely delicious and the service was second to none. They were open nearly 40 years and I really hope they make a return :( long life aladdin”

“Always delightful experience. Food is excellent. Always go for the rice or noodle box and find these portions huge. The staff are honestly the nicest.”

“It is a very cosy place, with delicious food and very friendly staff. I would highly recommend to visit them if you are a Thai food lover.”

“We went for a 16th bday celebration. There was 12 of us which wasnt a problem at all. Our waiter was brilliant. The food was really tasty. We will definitely be going back.”

“Lidia was extremely professional and very friendly as always...! The food was also very good...! We had arrabiata with prawns and it was gorgeous..! We will be back soon...! Until then....”

“Last week we were [invited] to Sotto for "Tales of the Med" with Stir by night which involved bottomless tapas, paella, pizza and pasta Sotto is a fusion of Spanish and Italian cuisines which has resulted in a combination of homely, fresh food made with passion. Our night began with a coktail, the first of many....so the concept for this night was to bring s bottle of spirits which the @stirbynight guys would craft into genius cocktails as we feasted. I was very impressed with every drink they made with my favourite being gin based and served in a glass of powered beetroots, this resulted in a vibrant shokicng pink cocktail The food was crazy. Not just in flavour but in quantity! I have never been so full that I have had to force myself to eat mushroom and truffle ravioli before, it's a favourite of mine and I was tortured by its beautiful smell as I collapsed in a glutenous heap We were served pizza, Spanish tortilla, patatas bravas and olives before a very unique dish was served (The 4th picture) At first glance I thought this was a paella, but it was actually made of pasta cut finely and cooked with clams and parsley. It was very unusual and like nothing I've had before, personally I did not enjoy this as much as the actual paella that was served later on The chicken paella was absolutely beautiful, it was cooked in a traditional method from the region of Spain the owner Athena is from. I filled up on this a bit too much but paella is up there in the lisy of my favourite foods My favourite dish was the deep fried ravioli! Stuffed with spinach and ricotta, deep fried and topped with a tomato based sauce with Chorizo. This was incredible!! Definitely an amazing invention and a trend needing to kick off Overall we had an amazing experience, theres too much food to talk about. Big thank you to Sotto and Stir by Night for having us. Check out Sotto's website for more info on the bottomless tapas night and also read up the VIVA magazine review on google @robbie.reviews on Instagram”

“Absolutely delicious pizza and a lovely place to eat. The crust was perfectly baked, toppings were fresh and generous, and everything came out hot and flavorful. The staff were friendly, the shop felt clean and welcoming, and the service was fast even at busy time.”

“Great place, interior is great. Music and cocktails lovely. Loads of menu choice, highly recommend coming here!!!”

“Good place to grab a coffee, latte, cappuccino or thier unique turkish coffee blend served in a copper pot they will never give you a reason to complain. The place is always busy (which is a good sign) and is always clean. It has a good seating area with tables outside also. The hot drinks are always amazing. Overall a good place to sit and relax for a while. Customer service is good too.”

“One of my favourite costa coffees in Manchester, very friendly staff and great vibes inside”

“Love this place, it truly is a hidden gem in Wilmslow. My sanctuary to go and work in peace, staff are amazing from Becky leading the way with her big smile it really feels like home. Food as you can see is always yummy and allows me to be at peace whilst working or even if friends want to pop in to have lunch it's the best treat for loved ones!”

“A Great Traditional Non Pretentious Pub. Great Selection Of Beers & Lager. Friendly Bar Staff. Sit out on a lovely sunny Day and Enjoy a good Pint at a very reasonable price.”

“Fantastic little pub right in the heart of Handforth great atmosphere plenty to do every day of the week from bingo darts pool they even have a games collection which is great for adults and children staff are friendly and very welcoming”

“This is our 2nd visit here ( we dont live locally) so our visita are far apart. The food on both occasions was delicious. We shared the CAMEMBERT for two, with 4 slices of toasted Ciabatta and red onion relish. Extremely tasty. I had the Lentil Cottage pie with vegetables. Really tasty. Hunters chicken was very tasty too. We ate outside. Then went inside for a coffee and to investigate this lovely old house. I read and looked at the photographs on the walls and found out it had belonged to The Boddington Family. Staff were lovely. Very helpful and friendly.”

“Nice local pub with outside seating dog friendly!!”

“Absolutely amazing, great food, staff really good and atmosphere amazing. Clean and friendly, really recommend and all freshly prepared.”

“All time favourite brunch/date spot. Food is amazing, the dishes are so creative and beautiful! The place is gorgeous with such a great vibe. Went back today for my partner’s birthday brunch and was served by our fav Mark, always so lovely and welcoming. Xx”

“Pizzas are so fresh and tasty, and the staff very helpful with suggestions too!”

“We had our server Zen he was very lovely and accommodating to our needs when ordering and serving us.”

“Tried the shawarma today and it was excellent—perfectly seasoned, fresh ingredients, and served hot. The staff were welcoming and the restaurant had a nice, clean atmosphere. Highly recommend for anyone who loves good shawarma.”

“Amazing food and incredible value for the money. There are more expensive afghan grills within walking distance but this is my favourite one and less busy than others.”

“A very nice pub,not too far away from Manchester Airport. Atmosphere was very good, food equally good and reasonably priced. Service was a bit slow,but it was very busy. When our meals did arrive it was well worth the wait. Your four legged friends are also welcome. I would definitely go again.”

“Haven’t been here for a good few years. Used to go regularly but got bored of the flavours and prices went up. Went today as we were craving for authentic halal Chinese food. The food was amazing. From the squid to the prawn balls. The egg fried was nice. The best had to be the roast duck in black bean sauce. The flavours were deliges and the duck tasted good. The complimentary prawn crackers were a good touch. Will be definitely coming here again soon.”

“Absolutely beautiful meal Fresh, tasty and wonderful prawn puri Great service Will be back”

“Came here for some food after a night out and the food was really great. Had some work going on so the place looks a bit messy but still the food is great. Freshly cooked so not super quick but worth it. Price is fair too. Will be back soon for sure”

“Having been a devoted customer for over 20 years, I can confidently say Al Madina on Wilmslow Road is one of the best places in Manchester for truly authentic Pakistani food. Every visit feels like a trip back home, thanks to the rich, genuine flavors and traditional cooking that never compromise on quality. If you’re new to Al Madina, the lamb karahi and chicken karahi are absolute must-tries — both packed with perfectly balanced spices and tender meat that melts in your mouth. The saag here is also excellent, creamy and flavorful without being overpowering. And if you love meat, the lamb chops are simply mouth-watering, grilled to perfection with a smoky, juicy finish that keeps you coming back for more. What elevates the experience even further is the outstanding customer service. Usman’s warm and attentive approach is truly 10/10, making every visit feel personal and welcoming. For anyone craving authentic Pakistani cuisine in Manchester, Al Madina is a timeless favorite that I’ll keep returning to for many more years.”

“So I called here as I needed delivery and was so in the mood for a curry. Knutford doesn't really deliver and the one nice restaurant that does was so busy as closed due to refurbishment. So I thought if try here. I'm so glad I did, the guy who answered the phone was so helpful and helped me pick the best curry based upon the description I gave of what I wanted. I'm out of the catchment area so paid more for delivery and I would again because the food was so delicious and I haven't got 1 thing to complain about, and I complain about anything that's anything but perfect! Thanks il definitely use again”

“I’ve tried Aroma a few times - the food is delicious, fresh and always served piping hot. I tried the tandoori mixed grill, garlic naan, biryani and chicken jalfrezi which were fresh and full of flavour. Portion sizes are always very generous too. Customer service is brilliant and the staff are friendly and always take time to listen to my order carefully. One of the best curries I’ve had and the price is decent too - why go anywhere else? Aroma Wilmslow is now my go to place when I want Indian food. Seriously give it a try - you won’t be disappointed!!!”

“Absolutely delighted with the quality of this cuisine. Whatever we order for delivery SK9 ,its prompt piping hot and never ceases to amaze us working through the vast varied menu. Well done Syed Ahmed and your top team. Geoff and Liz”
