Dimitri's in Manchester

The welcome was a little lacking in warmth, but the waiters were friendly & attentive. We had dinner pre-show & it was very busy. Food service was quick, though, so no problem.

Great buzz, friendly, helpful staff, delicious food . All round lovely place to eat

Only stopped in for a quick drink, lovely inside, but outside bench near kitchen fan... 😬not good smells blown onto us!

Amazing meze on a Sunday at 6:30. Good beer and friendly staff too.

Great as many years ago, luxury live music...great atmosphere!

Brilliant food, mix grill the meat was very tender and succulent. Would return

Food was delicious😋, service was really 👌 good. Thank you for a great evening.

Lovely restaurant with great food but my biggest pet hate at restaurants is the food coming out within minutes of ordering. It makes you feel rushed as a customer. It seemed a bit odd that all 8 plates we ordered came out within 5 minutes of placing our order, we had barely sipped our wine. I’m all for a speedy service but this was just too quick and we wanted some time to enjoy our wine and have the excitement of knowing our food was coming soon! Unfortunately this has made me reluctant to return.

Visited Dimitris last night while staying in Manchester, thought we’d see what it was like as we love Greece and Greek food. Safe to say we were blown away. We ordered a couple of starters and the Meaty sharing platter. The quality, flavours and freshness of the food were absolutely incredible! The restaurant itself is beautifully done out, and made us feel like we were back in Greece. It’s safe to say it was the nicest meal out we’ve ever ever had. Staff were so friendly, particularly the waiter who talked to us about Greece and where we’ve visited etc, sadly didn’t catch his name. We will 100% be back when we’re next in Manchester!!🥰🤍

Marked down on atmosphere only because on the last visit we were placed downstairs which is not as nice

Didn’t like it here at all, the food came out within minutes of us ordering - which in most cases would be great - however we ordered quite a lot of small plates for us both to share and for them to be out within minutes was strange, the chicken tasted like it had been microwaved if you know the taste I mean, the portions for the small plates were tiny for the price, should’ve probably just got a main. Staff were nice, the outside area was cosy but wouldn’t come back in a rush

Very nice atmosphere with touches of mediterranean decor. The food is hearty and tasty and the folks there very attentive and kind.

Normally my favourite place to eat in Manchester, the Gambas Chilli is always a must but for some reason this time around I was served with a plate of cheap prawns with barely any sauce and a completely different taste to the usual, the service again is usually spot on but the waiter we had was barely interested in taking our order or clearing the plates afterwards to ask us if we wanted desert which we did but after waiting at least 10 minutes with our dirty plates still on the table, we ending up having to ask him for the bill and going somewhere else afterward - this was a Sunday and was not busy otherwise we would have understood

Best Food in Manchester, thank you, guys. Amazing place to have a night out

Absolutely fantastic experience! The food was incredible—every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The lovely lady, Anna, made our visit even more special. She was so warm, patient, and genuinely kind. Anna took the time to explain the menu in detail, suggesting some amazing dishes that we ended up loving. Her recommendations were spot-on, and her attention to detail made us feel truly cared for. We’d definitely come back, not only for the amazing food but also for the wonderful service. Thank you, Anna, for making our meal memorable!

Very nice place, great food and excellent service

Greek food and excellent service

Excellent restaurant. A kitchen with good ingredients. Taste and flavors. In simplicity. Top 👍🏽

Large group. Staff were friendly and organised All the food was very tasty

Wonderful meal, friendly staff and stunning setting

Wow! An amazing restaurant with great service and the most delicious food. An absolute must.

Very nice food and great experience. We will definitely return and would recommend it to anyone.

Delicious food, excellent service, cozy and pleasant place. An ideal place for both a romantic date and family meetings.

Me and my better half went to dimitri's while we are staying in Manchester while receiving treatment at the Christie. The team at the Christie recommended Dimitri's and with a babysitter sorted we went! The food was fantastic and atmosphere was perfect, but we simply ordered too much. If you have a big appetite get dips to start with and 3 mezes each. If not I'd recommend 2 each. The team were caring and kind and even got us to our table early. The timing and service of our food clearly indicates a well run kitchen. My favourite was the sea brass. My better half was the chilli prawns.

Excellent food 👌 Very reasonably priced lunch menu. NOT open for lunch Mon to Wed currently.

Amazingly good, very good atmosphere, suitable for people with lactose and GF intolerances. Highly recommended 👌

Staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was amazing and the restaurant had a lovely relaxed feeling to it.

Felt very authentic with great food and service. Very accommodating and accessible to my friend in a wheelchair. Really nice evening

Very interesting place with different dining areas and a rustic bar. Food was very good and the service was great.

Wow! What beautiful and tasty food. Lovely surroundings and friendly and efficient staff. Reasonably priced as well. No wonder it was packed and it is advisable to book a table in advance. There was also live music. Highly recommended.

We had a course of a variety of meze and tapas dishes, each of which was fantastic. Service was excellent. It wasn't cheap, but we ate a lot and it wasn't hideously expensive. Will definitely coming back!

I hadn’t been here for years before this visit but I was pleased to find the same good service and fresh-tasting food of previous visits. Everything was flavourful and rich, and I have always been a bit overwhelmed by the number of choices on the menu. We ordered the patatas bravas aioli (okay, not exactly authentic Greek fare but delicious nonetheless), seabass, chicken skara, grilled halloumi, and vegetable tagine. There were clean plates all round for a delicious lunch. The prices could be lowered a little, but overall, this was a really nice dining experience.

We were celebrating my husband’s birthday there yesterday and we had such a great time. I never even knew they have a separate area downstairs that shells you from the people that come just for the drinks. The food was amazing and our waiter went an extra mile! I can’t remember his name but it was a tall guy with a big beard ! Thank you so much for taking such a good care of our table and thanks to your chefs too! We will definitely come back.

We came here years ago and loved it! So happy to be back and finding the same high quality food and attentive service and cool unique atmosphere! What a gem!

A Manchester institution that I somehow hadn't managed to try until this point. Quite extensive menu and very good vibes in the evening but popped in for lunch. Wrong orders being delivered didn't help but the staff sorted this efficiently and even offered a dessert as an apology. That kind of customer service will keep you coming back but wouldn't say the food was particularly outstanding, just good.

The staff were friendly and attentive. The food was well prepared and arrived quickly and hot. When the kitchen was getting ready to close, our table was asked if we wanted any more food before they did. A cosy place for a delicious Greek meal.

Really enjoyed the food and excellent service. Than you

Fabulous selection of truly authentic Greek food, altho today my husband's sheekh kebab came with far too many chips...my pilaf however was divine.....only one Greek red, Cava Boutari, beautiful but pricey at £13 a glass.....won't stop us...we'll definitely be back...

Amazing atmosphere and venue, food ordered was good, portions are not great. However, waiter/waitresses seemed preoccupied and did not check up much despite a non busy enviorment. One waitress also had a bit of an attitude. The restroom unfortunately had a displeasing smell as well as though it was not cleaned frequently.

Such an excellent place - a real treat. Fresh tasty food, great service and a happy atmosphere.

Food here is always wonderful! I crave the calamari from here daily.

Always great food and service. Lots of vegan options, nice seating in the outside area. Nice fresh, quality produce.

Delicious food with loads of gf options. The moussaka was my favourite- absolutely amazing. The staff were lovely and there was live music later on, the singer was great.

Fantastic atmosphere and amazing food. Have allergies, no worries Dimitri's have a huge amount of options to choose from. We had pork and gluten free to deal with but everyone was given something and was really well fed. Definitely worth recommending

We’ve been to Dimitri’s as a family of 5 on two occasions for lunch before the theatre. The welcome and the food both times have been brilliant. We’ve had a selection of food from their tapas and meze menu, and we love it. Our children all like different things, so tapas is perfect, and each dish is generous portion. Highly recommended and we will go again.

Been here many times over the years and this was disappointing. Ordered tapas and everything was delicious apart from the stifado which was very dry. Told the waiter and he said he’d tell the kitchen staff. The bill arrived and they had the cheek to stick a service charge on there. Eventually got the stifado removed. What was disappointing was the attitude of the staff. They didn’t care that there was a problem. Really not interested. I dont like leaving negative reviews. I always try and resolve issues at the table. I met Dimitri through work several years ago and he was a lovely fella. But unfortunately we won’t be back. It’s gone down hill and the staff simply don’t care anymore. Shame. Real shame.

Fantastic restaurant. Great selection of Greek food and was so tasty. Lovely and accommodating staff

Nice Greek vibes in Manchester.. good food and service. I dined there with wife and we came in without booking and we were accommodated easily.

Birthday treat. Service was wonderful. Our first time but we were treated as welcomed regulars. Lovely atmosphere and decor. Ordered eight meze between three of us and portions were just right. Favourite was Gambas Chilli Prawns. Ordered - lamb chops (3 in a meze portion), chicken souvlaki, pastourma and sucuk beef sausages, Greek salad, mousaka, garlic mushrooms and patatas bravas. Great value for money and speedy service. We'll be back.

Loved my first time at Dimitris. Lovey Greek food, generous portions and such friendly helpful staff. We had lots of different dishes. My favourites were the fried halloumi and tiropita. Can't wait to come back and try the moussaka!

Visited for the first time in quite a while and we were so pleased with the food and service. The best Greek we’ve had for years, it was so tasty. Everything was fresh and served hot off the grill. Just delicious.

Absolutely lovely place. Very Greek and you wouldn't think you were on deansgate. Very friendly staff, gorgeous tapas and drinks.

Love this place. Great Greek food, and the atmosphere is nice too. Can't fault the service or value for money. It's also a good location, not far from the Hilton hotel, Albert Hall, and several good pubs, such as The Deansgate.

Tasty home cooked bar food, a lovely environment, and great customer service! Dimitri's is a great spot for an evening out. The food is tasty but fairly expensive for the quality - it cost us around £60 for two mains and two drinks, and we purposefully chose cheaper options. It was altogether a really nice night, and both my partner and I enjoyed what we ordered. I ordered the pork chops with patatas bravas, which came with some dill pickled cabbage and some red onion chutney - these just seemed like your average shop bought condiments but the pork chops were cooked really well and the patatas were super tasty. 4* Food quality 5* environment and staff

Busy Saturday afternoon but didn't wait long for our order. Food good as usual

Good food and the service was great.

Amazing food and great atmosphere. Will definitely be returning!

Amazing food, great service and warm friendly atmosphere.

Lovely birthday meal with my daughter and family. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. A great surprise was the selection of deserts for her birthday. Food excellent.Thanks to everyone at Dimitri's

We went for the first time yesterday. We ordered too much food, but what we had was lovely. Probably what we ordered, but one or two dishes were slightly too salty altogether. Pilaf rice was perfect! The staff were really friendly, efficient and worked hard - a really impressive service.

Just had drinks in the bar. Nice wine. Had a white wine each. It was early afternoon so not really busy. Xx

We had a table for 10 one of the best tapas we've been to, staff and service was excellent. Thank you so much for a lovely lunch. We will be back.

Fantastic service, great to sit ourdoors, in the covered areas. Lovely filo prawns, and feta and humus, then mixed kebab, and meatballs. Overall a fantastic place

Decent portion sizes, quality food and good price. Service was average. Atmosphere was strange, we were sat downstairs and a couple of tables were super noisy not the restaurants fault but wasn't quite the romantic meal we thought it would be

I don’t think I’ve ever left dimitris a review and I’ve been coming for over a decade. Came for a quick birthday treat last night with partner and 5 year old son. We are all vegetarian. Think of it like an old friend. The food is reliably good quality, the atmosphere always relaxed and the service always top notch. Remember it fondly for having intense garlic mushroom cravings early in my pregnancy back in 2018 and it delivering 😂 Keep going strong Dimitris, you’re a Manchester institution!

Oh my world. The food here is AMAZING!!!

Always fancied going here and finally got round to doing so. Excellent meze in a relaxing environment. Nice and busy, even at 5:30 on a Tuesday.

Excellent food, atmosphere and service.

Fabulous ! Lovely food goof menu to chose from. Plenty of choice for vegetarians

As Gaz G shore would say ‘Unreal man’

Great place for a meze. Food is full of flavour and a great variety of options. Beware of the small ice cream serving! That's was the only disappointment.

Great food and great service. Staff so nice and friendly!! Definitely going back :)

Just had a coffee and a beer and sat outside, really enjoyed it, nice and peaceful corner of Manchester

Great selection of dishes to choose from/mix 'n match. Lovely, informal space and charming staff.

Sat outside under cover and it was lovely x

Fabulous food. Good selection. Check it out

Great food staff were really nice. Bringing to food was quick

Spoiled as the staff took the order incorrectly, then twice failed to correct it. One customer received an order 20 minutes late

Amazing good, great atmosphere, friendly staff.

We met up with some old friends here for a midweek long, lazy and (let's be honest) slightly boozy lunch, and the restaurant was perfect for us. It was a nice relaxing atmosphere. The staff were very friendly, and the food & drinks were excellent. It just has a nice feel about the place. Lots of lovely vegetarian options on the menu too. If you're in a wheelchair, the restaurant has very easy access and a disabled toilet. Looking forward to the next visit!

Alright food, service wasn't great, first time I've ever asked to take service charge off

We have visited dimitris several times since we first moved to Manchester, taking every opportunity to share this Greek gem with our friends and family. We are never disappointed with the quality of the food or service. Do ensure that you book well in advance. Unsurprisingly, this place is very popular!

Came for my 15 year old daughter's birthday, great service and food

Great food and not too expensive if you are sharing the meze dishes

Very good food. Tons of vegan options. Best Tzatziki I've ever had. Kind staff. The fries were amazing!

Lovely atmosphere , delicious food and great service .Will be back 😁

Dimitri's was recommended as a great place for a meal out in Manchester, and it really did meet expectations. We sat outside, and although it was a chilly evening, the heaters made it feel lovely and warm, it was like being on holiday. The waiters were excellent and food and drink were spot on - I'd recommend the veggie kalamata platter👌

The food was really tasty and nice quality. Left feeling satisfied.

Bog standard Greek/Mediterranean food at highly inflated prices. Wouldn't go again.

Prices for Mezes seemed to be lower than on other Greek/Turkish places, but all made sense when we saw the portions size. Got a very small sea bass fillet, with a quite bitter taste, taramasalata was tasting very oily, and Greek salad was made from the cheapest ingredients available in the market served in a small cereals bowl. Being a big fan of Greek food and traditions, I was highly disappointed!

Manchester institution, good mezze and reasonable prices with really friendly attentive staff

The food was amazing and decent sized portions. Staff were friendly and attentive even though it was a busy Friday night. We chose here in the hope of authentic Greek food and certainly didn’t disappoint. One to definitely return to when we next visit Manchester.

Lovely Greek restaurant and bar . The food is excellent and it has a nice atmosphere with very attentive staff . The house wine is very good but it's so popular it might be best to book in advance .

The atmosphere was top notch, the staff are obviously a happy bunch, it was a privilege having my meal there. I recommend it Dimitri's wholeheartedly, my only regret is that I was alone, it would have been sublime to have my friends and family with me... Next time 😉

The best Greek restaurant in the UK.

Just needed a snack to keep my partner and I going until Dinner. Had the 3 dips and pitta breads for £14.50. Wow, homemade hummus, tzatziki and feta and red pepper dip. All 3 devine and m9re than enough for 2 to share. Friendly and helpful staff. Definitely recommend to friends visiting Manchester 👌

Best food ever! Trust me. Ribs are slow cooked. Melting in your mouth different from tough Chinese ones. Potatoes soft. Omg I will be back soon

Excellent restaurant. We found it by accident and were squeezed in. Lovely food, staff and service. We look forward to revisiting soon.

Big fan of Greek food but hadn't tried here before. Pre-booked a table, which even for a Tuesday night was a good idea. Got very busy, must be a popular place. Didn't have a traditional Greek vibe inside, but was a nice bustling feel. Food was nice and did have quite a traditional taste to it. Service was ok, despite being busy, the food didn't take long to arrive

Fabulous food and service. We will be back. 😊
