Azuma in Manchester

Nice korean bbq buffet and even gift the cabdy🍭 but egg fried rice is not that much good. Others are delicious.

Visited as a birthday celebration for family and had a great experience. Really good food and friendly service, nestled very close to the main university area, so it's not overpriced and offers good value for the 2-hour buffet, depending on how hungry / quick you are? Our first time visit, but would go back again - definitely recommended.

Great food, halal chicken and beef

The hot pot buffet is super unpalatable. You have to pay extra for all kinds of toppings. The base is so salty that I couldn’t taste anything except the salty taste all night.

The food wasn't very good, my partner was sick later.

Auténtica comida china. Los mejores chinos de Manchester. Siempre gran servicio y deliciosa comida servida por personal experto y amable.

Enjoyed the food a lot. Would recommend it.

A wonderful experience, loved the food, I could spend all day in here 🤤

Absolutely excellent experience and great concept. May was very welcoming and looked after us throughout our meal. All the meats were amazing especially the Gizzard (my favorite). 10/10 definitely recommend.

First time trying a Korean BBQ place and very impressed. The staff were lovely and very helpful and accommodating, offering recommendations for what to eat off the menu. The experience was was really good and would recommend a visit.

Skip this restaurant as you can. It’s horrible. This was the worst restaurant which I ate in my life. It was not a Korea BBQ Restaurant. No korea food style. It was only like a place for you to cook meat. The stove was bad as well. It couldn’t let you cook nice. Don’t go, waste money and time.

It’s not a Korea bbq restaurant. The stove always overheats. Disappointed. Foods are disappointed as well.

The food was average but this was not the Korean BBQ I was looking for and plus the price does not come close to the taste and the food

A normal to average restaurant. The food is good and cheap. The chef was very nice. I was surprised that when I ordered food from my traveller, they asked for money for the lunch box.

First time visiting a Hot Pot Buffet. Could not have been nicer. Went with my daughter and we got to choose 2 flavours of soup/broth. We were given a sheet and asked to choose whatever meat and vegetable we want as well as 2 dips. The food came out quickly and we were cooking our own food very quickly!! Broths were delicious, and spicy!! The service was exemplary and terrifically fast. The staff were most accommodating, asking if we needed more food or drinks (refillable) Would give 10/5 if I could. Cannot wait to go again when in the area!!

El peor restaurante en el que hemos estado mi familia y yo. ¡Gran estafa! Todo era barato y de mala calidad. La carne era masticable como una goma. Cobraron 28 libras. 5 / persona incluso para un niño menor de 5 años todavía cobra £ 28. 5 para él también. Si quieres un bbp por favor ve a One Plus ya que usan un carbón real a diferencia de aquí usan parrillas eléctricas. El caldo de olla caliente que usaban era agua y sal, insípido. ¿Cómo puede la gente calificarlos aún más de 3 *? Si la web nos permite a mí y a mi familia calificarlos como menos * Se los daré - 10

Food was amazing, have been here x4 this year already and can’t get enough. My family come to Manchester just to go here haha

Had the hotpot buffet/all you can eat, lots of variety of vegetables. Unfortunately, lacking in the meat.

He ido a este restaurante 3 veces, y cada vez fue genial. Siempre había querido probar la barbacoa coreana, y fue una gran experiencia. La primera vez que fuimos, recibimos instrucciones claras sobre cómo cocinar y cómo usar el menú. Tenía un montón de comida deliciosa, y tenían excelentes opciones de salsa también.

Mi primera vez experimentando cocinar su propia cena estilo barbacoa. Pides toda la carne, arroz y verduras que quieras y la fríes delante de ti en un plato caliente. Realmente gran actividad con amigos - especialmente bueno si quieres eliminar a los débiles (también conocido como nuestro compañero Danny que generalmente puede picar el estómago, pero en esta ocasión, el cerdo casi lo rompe XD). El caos es lo que también consumió Danny y por caos me refiero a tener que cocinar su propia comida. El personal nos enseñó a él y a nosotros cómo cocinar con seguridad, ya que esta era nuestra primera vez en Azuma, así que después de eso Danny era un chef feliz y todos disfrutamos de la mejor comida que hemos tenido en años. La cerveza también fue TAN refrescante, como lo fue el soju de uva. Gran saludo al kimchi - fue encantador. Está ocupado, un poco ruidoso, y lleno de ambiente amable - así que no vengas si tienes una migraña : )

The food not too bad for the price you pay the staff abit lack of communication cause by language barrier but they’re alright

I went to Azuma a couple of days ago to eat with my friends. The final bill for 10 of us was £309.30, which meant all of us were paying over £30 for food which we had to cook ourselves. This price does not match the value of the food we ate. Please do not waste your time and money eating from Azuma Manchester. Thanks for reading this review.

The service was amazing. The food was equally amazing! We were served by Allen - he was very patient and took his time to make sure me and my partner were comfortable and had a good experience. He kept checking on us and gave useful advice on the food and tradition. The food was marinated beautifully, I was so happy and content with the whole experience. 10/10

Good ingredients, very inexpensive. But the side dishes are a little less. There is not a variety of dipping sauces. Order additional chili and garlic dipping sauce for 1£ per cup.

** Review for Koreans 🇰🇷 Although it is not a Korean restaurant, it serves Korean barbecue, They sell a variety of Chinese hot pot and Chinese food. As of today's date, unlimited meat buffet for 28 pounds. You can use it for two hours, but like in Korea, there is raw meat. It didn't come out and everything was seasoned. fire in the grill Lettuce wraps cooked well and grilled until crispy like soy sauce bulbaek It tastes good when eaten wrapped..♥️ We really like Chinese food. When I ordered squid, the scent of Chinese spices was very strong. I didn't eat well. Shrimp has no scent I recommend it because it’s okay!!! ** Choice of two sauces per person. Korean sauce because it comes in a very small soy sauce bowl. I recommend doing one of each! ** And everyone ate a lot of barbecue. When I leave after eating, the amazing smell of the meat restaurant follows me for two days 🫠 A great place to eat a lot of meat at a reasonable price. The staff are all really friendly and make me feel good. 🥰

One of my favourite Chinese restaurants. They serve authentic Sichuan food with fair price.

We ate here on a whim after a graduation at the nearby University. We ate from the general menu not the BBQ. The food was very good and tasty on all counts and the portion size are large and not your normal sizes. The service was a little difficult as the staff did not speak or understand English we also ordered things and then the waiter came back to either check or say it wasn't available then when the food came out what we were told wasn't available arrived and also what we had reordered. All our food came together even though we specifically asked for starters to come before mains having been to similar places we know to specifically ask for that. We could have got away with ordering half the dishes even without the doubling up. Would we eat there again yes.

I went there on a Monday, had Korean BBQ, staff was very friendly atmosphere was great and the food was really good. I will go again when I'm in Manchester next time!

great got Korean bbq and hotpot, various selection of meats, seafood and veggies to cook and great value for money

Great restaurant, ordered from à la carte menu. Authentic Chinese food. Honest and attentive service. I especially like the fact that they don't add a service charge to the bill

The food was very nice, big portions. We had to share the soup & rice with my friend (that was 1 portion). I had squid & my friend had the sweet & sour chicken. I had to take the leftover squid home.

First time here and it was great - I'm vegan and the options were just vegetables and rice, with various dips, for the Korean BBQ, but it was still very nice and the meat-eater options were pleantiful. You BBQ the food yourself at the table, which was a great experience - will likely go again!

BBQ on your own. Good taste. There are many types of meat. Unfortunately, the shrimps were out of stock that day.

Kung pao chicken, fish-flavored shredded pork, lamb chops are delicious, crispy pork is not delicious

After eating half of it, I drove people away. I was really convinced.

They served all-you-can-eat barbecue and hot pot and a le carte menu. We admit we are heavy meateater and everytime we back for enjoy the unlimited meat! It just around £30 per person, and the quality is nice. It's located surrounding the uni student accommodation. I bet that's why they are quite popular to the youngster and always full house.

Came for my birthday, staff were really attentive, thankyou :)

Excellent quality food, fast service and friendly staff. I couldn’t recommend this place enough especially if you’ve never tried a Korean BBQ! My new favourite

It's very salty. The hot pot has no flavor. It tastes very uncomfortable. There aren't many dishes. Overall, it's not good.

Offered decent pork, but the beef had a slightly unpleasant taste, seafood was not fresh either. The pricing is quite reasonable if you visit before 4 pm, overall, it's okay to try one, but I wouldn't revisit.

Skip this place! The worst Korean BBQ of my life (and my family’s). We advise tourists to not eat here. The meat is chewy, thick, and has more fat than actual meat. All the meats we ordered were seasoned with the same flavor. The chicken wings never cooked fully regardless of being on the grill 30 min. I’ve never seen chicken wings at a KBBQ menu— so that was odd. The “fried rice” was plain white rice with some egg and tasted bland. You get “two” spicy sauces for the ENTIRE TABLE which is the same seasoning sauce the food came with. We understand the concept of “all you can eat” but no one ever checked in on us. We never got the waters we requested twice. We got £10 off of £140 check for the inconvenience and bad service which doesn’t make up at all for the bad taste it left in our mouths. I’ve eaten at numerous KBBQ restaurants and this is the worse one of them all. Do not eat here!

Food and experience was great but could have done with more menu items being in stock. Meat was very good quality and well flavoured.

You get to pick from a list of items including meat and vegetables and then cook it on the stove in front of you. We had to wave down the waiter quite a few times to get their attention to add more items or chase up our order. We had to reorder because they forgot some items. The numbers on the vegetables seemed a little meaningless as 2 portions of lettuce was the same as 4. I think it's unfortunate that everyone is limited 2 sauces/kimchi per person. I think a sauce bar would be nice.

Delicious food. Duck and beef are amazing. Greetings from Poland! I recommend

This place is a perfect location for anyone who might not know what Hotpot or Korean BBQ is. It has an easy system and costs are pretty average all things considered for an all you can eat. There is a time limit but there is plenty of time to eat everything you possibly want. It's also very close to the University, however it can feel very crowded during peak hours.

Art deco cocktail lounge, swanky drinks and jazz tunes.

Poor quality of food,no desert and you will spend most of the time cooking than eating.

It was out first time visiting a hotpot and Korean bbq place. The staff were lovely and explained how it all works, how to cook the meats and veg and how long they can take for it. I would recommend it for anyone who wants to try it out.

Good food. Have option to grill your own. Expensive but would recommend the experience.

I had both hotpot and BBQ on Sunday lunchtime. We had to gather at least 5 persons to get both. It costs £28.8/px. Total time 2hrs. The BBQ is needless to say. Really good. Taste is good. They marinated with sauce. A variety of choices. For Hotpot, it is a big NO.👎👎👎👎👎. Not much to choose. Very few things to choose. It takes about 20mins to boil the soup. What a waste of time. Taste is just so-so. They give the sauce only 1 time. NO REFILL for sauce. 👎👎👎👎👎. Photos credit go to the owners

Food is one of the best. After having 4 or 5 times ordering for a hotpot buffet, the staff started asking us - "do you want to stop?" Every single time after I hv ticked the order paper. It is kinda annoying considering "The Hotpot Buffet". And yes it is within the given time limit as well.

great korean bbq. great service.

It was a buffet without the buffet but you get unlimited orders like meat. They had a great deal and the drinks were refillable. We got the hotpot and the grill but the meats were a little too salty. Overall, i would visit this restaurant again because of the great deals. One note is that the egg fried rice just needs spring onion and more taste.

It was delicious and with a good atmosphere. I just want to ask for better air conditioning because I had to wash all my clothes from the oily smell. I really want to visit this place again!

It was super unpalatable. I went to eat it today. I read Xiaohongshu’s recommendation and it was really disappointing. The barbecue ingredients smelled stale and the seasoning was unpleasant. I took two bites and ran away quickly. It was too unpalatable! ! ! Moreover, my friend and I both started to feel nauseous after eating, and felt like vomiting. We really need to pay attention to food safety issues.

Read the reviews about this place so thought me and my friend would go check it out plus we are both Chinese. We ordered our food the old women that surved us was really rude and off with us. We even ordered water which I had to asked five times for even tho the people on other tables were getting water drinks before us and fast they didn't have to wait for there drinks like we did. Food was ok we had the BBQ £28 seems overpriced for me plus the bad service doesn't inspire us to go back again so go at your own risk.

Amazing first experience with Korean BBQ, and the staff were super nice and helpful. The restaurant is small, which gives it a proper friendly and cosy vibe. You can order food off the menu, or you have an option of a hotpot or a Korean BBQ (both are all you can eat). We had the Korean BBQ, it was really easy to order, and you are given a sheet with loads of options. The portions you are given are based on how many in your party I believe, and you are given plenty to enjoy. Between 4 of us, we had 8 different meats and 4 different veggies, and that filled us up! I would personally recommend the squid tentacles and the spicy beef, all the food was super yum but those were my personal faves. Will definitely go back to try the hotpot.

Food is amazing! They also have karaoke downstairs which is a perfect place for having food and partying at the same time! How Guly recommend Lamb Ribs!!!!!

太难吃了 是不是换老板和厨子了. 肉腌的难吃 菜单里的好多炒菜没有

推荐菜品一 干妈手撕羊排（五颗星）£16.8 独特的烹饪技巧和绝美的味道让每一根羊排都被充分吸收，外皮焦香，肉质鲜美，真得无法拒绝这样 美食的诱惑。 凉拌藕片（四颗星）£8.8 如果觉得只吃肉有点腻，那么一盘脆爽滑口的藕片必须安排上。 毛血旺（四颗星）£16.8 作为川府的名菜，怎么能少了这一道毛血旺呢？新鲜的鸭血，配上午餐肉，千层肚以及新鲜的豆芽，木耳等配菜，色香味俱佳。 上次和朋友一起来时，还点了一份干锅牛蹄筋，也是五星推荐。牛蹄筋炖煮的软糯Q弹，满满的胶原蛋白，经常吃还可以促进人体新陈代谢哦~ 2人点3个菜，就非常的足够啦，预算£50以内

超级好吃 物美价廉 very good food with decent price.

Foods are delicious! Egg fried rice is my favorites. Highly recommend the lunch set, really valuable, especially when you go with some friends, so you can try many dishes. The service is good!

The hotpot is just MSG water. Terrible exp.

There are different and delicious foods . The staff are lovely. I really recommend that place

this is our first time here and it cost £28 per person and you are only allowed to stay for 2 hours its unlimited buffet but doing bbq will take your time overall its an average place to go for a korean food

It was a very good Chinese hot pot experience, my friend and I ate very full, this restaurant is a restaurant for Chinese food and hot pot, this time we chose the hot pot set, charge 22.8 pounds per person, you can order unlimited hot pot set food, meat and seafood are very fresh. I will try the Chinese food here again next time

INCREDIBLE FOOD! lovely restaurant in Manchester Very friendly staff working well as a team Immaculate and super clean Korean barbecue is a must Big portions of meat and vegetables I had the large prawns which I cooked onthe barbecue to my own liking Beautiful selection of meats Really gorgeous enjoyable food Book in advance just in case as its a very sort after restaurant which I completely understand as it truly is wonderful food Very fresh ingredients and perfect team serving you I will be going back later this year Unforgettable food and service Very accomodating Very highly Reccommended from me and the Mrs Really really good and extremely tasty food with very professional staff members I want it again now that I'm typing this up ha I'm hungry now!!

We went to try Korean food for the first time. The Food was nice, though I felt it was overpriced for a hotpot where you cook it yourself. While it was all-you-can-eat, it wasn't for me. The staff were friendly and accommodating, although we encountered some communication barriers. The atmosphere was relaxed enough, though it was quiet due to the time of day. All in all it was a good expereience. Lastly, watch out for children's meals. Azuma charges adult prices for children too.

The food was really delicious, and the stuff were very accommodating.

Probably the cheapest bbq and hotpot, all u can eat in Manchester, good for a hungry large party of over 6 people. Update, they do not completed your orders of the all you can eat! After selecting some stuff on the sheets, they don't completely give out full food selected! Only some things come

Lovely Korean BBQ . Delicious food and good service

Hubby to be took me here for my birthday after we had spent the day at the Christmas markets. He booked it as we'd eaten at the Preston one when it was open and we loved it. Can safely say this one was as good if not better. The staff were amazing they were friendly and very helpful. There's a good selection of meats, fish and veg to choose from, it all comes out raw and you cook it yourself. Meats we had prawns, pork and beef with egg fried rice (comes out cooked) and veg we picked leeks, carrots and mushroom. The meats are thinly sliced so they cook quickly and very well seasoned so they taste amazing. Highly recommend this place.

烤肉很香！推荐菜：辣五花肉和辣牛仔骨！上菜很快 2个小时内自助 可以无限点 周一到周五四点前活动价只要22.8磅一位！非常划算！

There is a bargain luncheon, A dish + egg fried rice/rice + drink only £9.8! It's close to the business school! Recommended: Sweet and sour pork I really like it. It's sweet and sour and crispy. The beef brisket and the potatoes are both very soft and very flavorful and it goes well with egg fried rice.

It was my first time trying hotpot, the staff were very helpful in understanding what to do. Plenty of food, very high quality. 10/10 recommend, I’ll definitely be back

Delicious food that we cooked ourselves on a hotplate that was in the middle of the table. What a great idea will definitely be back

The staff is SO nice and kind and helpful, always there for your every need and so friendly too. Ive genuinely got to say this is one of the 2 genuine and lovely restaurant experience ive had with staff in manchester. The food was amazing and the prie was really worth it too. Everything tasted really fresh and the portions were perfect. For all you can eat youll get the best quality anything from this type of dining. I would 100% recommend going here. You will not be disappointed .

What an incredible place. We went for my birthday and we really enjoyed it. Highly recommend.

Friendly helpful staff, lots of meat choicse, lots of shrimp and big size, reasonable price as its all you can eat. The service is also very quick. Great place. Will definitely come back again😀

Waiters kind and helpful. Food is absolutely high quality. The place is spacious and clean. The prices are fair. I will definitely come back!

Great staff, great food and a great experience

Food was lovely and the staff was really friendly. Me and the wife had a great time and experience and will definitely come here again.

Amazing service, friendly staff and great food for! Price was good and it was very clean in the restaurant and toilets looked spotless! I’d love to come back again! Highly recommended! 💪🏽

First time doing bbq. Food was delicious and good value. Staff were really helpful. We had a baby with us and they really helped with that as well. We look forward to returning. Our favourite dishes were the spicy pork belly, the chicken hearts and the pepper beef.

Good food with a good service...worth trying new way of eating and Asian food....But because it is barbecue just to warn everyone you'll end up stinky after😜😜😜

The food was incredible especially the beef and the prawns. The service was also very welcoming, all the waiters/waitresses were really cheerful and nice with my kids.

Great food, plenty of choice and all you can eat. Staff are all very friendly and helpful. Drinks are not overpriced like in many other places. We had a really enjoyable evening

Amazing!! We went with no reservation Sunday 12:30 ish. We were greeted and seated, everything explained in detail, very friendly service. The quality of the food was waaay better than other Korean bbq places I've been to in the UK. It was around £28 for all you can eat in 2hrs (charge for any food taken away/ wasted). Drinks were nice too. Have had Korean bbq in Korea several times and I can say this is a good quality restaurant. I am sure we will be back.

Great food! I went there with a few friends 2 of them were chinese and told me about this restaurant. They said it was the authentic Chinese Hot Pot experience, we also had Korean Bbq and it was superb! I couldnt recommend it more, just make sure you come hungry as it is all you can eat

Great restaurant, brilliant for a different meal out, well worth visiting.

Fantastic place. Host was very friendly and helpful. Also tracked us down after we had left to give us our sunglasses back. Meat was good quality. Nothing bad to say about this place

Brilliant Korean bbq excellent quality and service fun evening had by all especially the wonderful host!!

The service is incredible, I was immediately seated and greeted at the door upon arrival! The friendliest of staff assisted with telling us how the hot plate worked, the service was rapid and consistent! They gave us advice and always checked up on our wellbeing after each round! The buffet is immaculate, the food is pure heaven, tastes just like a traditional hot plate platter. The variety is fantastic too you have a range of all meats, veg, and seafood that are freshly prepared in the kitchen and brought directly to you. The drinks menu is no different, there's a variety of Eastern, alcoholic, and non-alcoholic beverages on the menu as well as some fun house special drinks. The cleanliness of the venue is on point, not a single spec of dust was found anywhere near the tables, and the toilets were refreshing! I will be going back again and I can highly recommend this place if you're looking for both a great meal and a fantastic eating experience!

Superb as always if you like spicy szechuen food. I would say it is the best in Manchester for this type of cuisine. Also serves BBQ and hotpot so be prepare for the smell in the restaurant. A touch expensive but everything is nowadays.

Good food and great value. Will definitely go back.

A surprise find which turned out to be an absolute gem! As we love Korean BBQs we are always picky with the food; it definitely rose to the expectation! The food was absolutely gorgeous, with beautiful cuts full of flavour and fresh. We were definitely impressed and will return without a doubt! They also have a nice selection of veggies, which makes every plate even tastier. Very curious to try their hot pots and other dishes as well now!

This was my first time at this restaurant, and my experience was amazing. George, the manager, made you feel welcomed almost like his home. I will be going back. Thank you

Great food, fantastic service and a brilliant experience. Good value for money. I've done lots of looking and this is the best and most authentic Korean BBQ I've found.

Super busy spot, lucky to get a table! Couldn’t go wrong really with either the Korean BBQ or the Hot Pot. Staff were super friendly.
