Dishoom Manchester in Manchester

We visited the Birmingham branch in August and were wowed. This was just as good. The Chilli Chicken was hotter than the sun but so tasty and the Manchester special biryani was exceptional. Friendly and attentive service not just from our server but also a young lady who took the time to acknowledge us as we were leaving while she was showing another party to their table. It's those little bits of attention to detail that Dishoom gets so right.

Party of 9 at Dishoom for Dinner. What an incredible, vibrant and buzzing atmosphere, pipped by the epic food and lovely staff! flavour profiles like you've never experienced, quality of presentation and product, second to none. If this is authentic, then im all in. as a once famous character said.....I'll be back !

My wife and I had a wonderful dining experience at Dishoom. They have a fascinating menu of what, in our opinion are unique or at least unusual dishes and every one we tried was delicious. The staff are helpful and attentive but not too much as to interrupt. It is always a good sign when customers are prepared to queue outside at a restaurant for a table as was the case when we went, fortunately we booked in advance and had a table waiting for us. We will be in London soon and will definitely be going to Dishoom while we are there

"This was one of the best dining experiences we have ever had It was our Silver wedding anniversary and everything was so special - the food was incredible, the service was exceptional and the setting was wonderful. A huge thanks to everyone, especially Alberto!!! We can't wait to return soon!!!"

Visited Dishoom Manchester for breakfast before going to the Davis Cup at the Arena. We received a warm welcome on arrival and quickly shown to our table. Our waitress was lovely, explaining all the dishes available . We chose the chilli cheese on toast with fried eggs and a side of pork sausages. It was really tasty and well presented. The service throughout was great and nothing was too much trouble. A really excellent start to our day.

I’ve had breakfast at Dishoom before which was amazing so I wanted to try an evening meal. First of all the service at the door was great, it was a Friday night and we hadn’t booked but we were sat down almost straight away. However this wasn’t like going into a normal Indian restaurant, it felt like we had walked into a Wetherspoons. It was so loud, there were kids running around screaming, men shouting from the tables. It definitely wasn’t the atmosphere I was expecting from an Indian, and it did affect the mood of our meal. Nevertheless we ordered, the waiters were all very helpful and explained how the menu worked. The portions aren’t huge but we were full at the end. The chicken ruby was good but a bit too spicy for me. The samosas were nice too, the shortcrust pastry was a little strange but they still tasted good. The garlic naan again was good, but quite small. They don’t serve normal soft drinks either, they are in 330ml bottles for around £5 each. Overall the food was tasty but the whole experience left me a little underwhelmed especially as it was more expensive than a traditional Indian as well.

Delicious food and delightful atmosphere. Our server Kenya made the experience so enjoyable for us. She was so helpful, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a good time.

The whole evening was perfect. This place is an absolute must, I would reccomend requesting the bar area when booking if possible as I think the ambience is better but you have to go and experience this place. My wife has an allergy, nothing serious but everything was explained thoroughly and dealt with in such a professional manner. Our waitress was lovely and the food was amazing as always. If you're reading this contemplating booking, just do it!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ideally we as a family and my daughters special friend would of liked to have had an opportunity for an evening meal the night before her Graduation Ceremony at University of Manchester . This restaurant is so busy and popular they do not need to take bookings so a table around 7pm even on a week day is a wait of possibly 1 1/2 hours . So We we all went for Breakfast on Graduation day itself I've heard so many good things about Dishoom my wife and daughter have visited fairly regularly over the last few years. But a 1st visit for me . I can't quite put into words just how good this restaurant is to be honest. The Decor is superb and probably creates an atmosphere of absolute Indian authenticity. The service and quality of food cant possibly be challenged . We had 5 for breakfast . Teas (proper Assam Tea) Iced Latte's followed by a wonderful Kejwiral for me and granola ,porridge and a selection of breakfast Nans for the rest of the group . Thank you to Neesh our server . She took time out to wish my daughter a good day on this special occasion . 5 people for breakfast total £79 and was more than happy to pay the optional service charge of 12.5%. Thanks all at Dishoom. Very best wishes

This is the place to try out in Manchester. It is a popular place so it will be busy and at times crowded. But don't let that put you off. Had the okra fries and chaat which was soo yummy and great as starters. Had the ruby Murray and mutton pepper fry which are two totally different dishes in taste but full of flavour. This place is totally different to your normal Indian restaurants so don't expect the usual curries, instead be daring and try something new!

The food it self is okay especially if you want a buffet. I would also say it really depends on what day you go in, it’s ether a good service or bad. It’s worth the money I would say

It was a very relaxed afternoon as it was a Sunday but it was very enjoyable

A very disappointing experience. I have always wanted to try this restaurant since I heard of its opening and I never expected to be this let down. I will never be returning. Firstly, considering it was a Saturday night, the restaurant was dead, and being a table of 4 we were placed on a small table next to the kitchen despite there being larger booths available the whole night. Service was shocking, I had to ask multiple times for empty plates to be cleared to make way for the new dishes. We sat with empty dishes in front of us for around 45 minutes with staff walking past and looking at our table on multiple occasions. It wasn’t until they brought us the bill that they thought that maybe it would be a good time to clear the stack of dirty plates in front us. Had to chase up drinks multiple times. Everything was just SLOW. Somebody even started hoovering the carpet half way through our dinner which at that point was just laughable. Staff were generally quite cold and rude, felt like no effort was being put in for us to have a nice evening. Not even a ‘thank you’ as we left from the Hostess, most of the staff just had a bad attitude. Such basic levels of service were no where to be seen. Food was average, quite a limited selection and generally quite poor quality too. Some dishes arrived straightaway whereas others took a while, some never arrived at all. The beef in the Menu’s picture and what arrived were world’s apart - it came chewy and overdone. A lot of the dishes were out of stock too which is bizarre for a peak night (that wasn’t busy). I felt like the value could have been improved if Desserts were included. The setting of the restaurant was gorgeous but ruined by the pretentious loud music. This place has a lot of potential but the execution is horrendous. All style no substance. Wouldn’t ever recommend.

Service is absolutely atrocious. Had to ask for everything which should be given. Dont want to go in details but service needs improvement.

If you like trying a little bit of everything then this place is great. We opted for the tapas experience which allows you to choose 4 items per person every 15 minutes. I can't fault the food. Everything we ate tasted very nice. Unfortunately the service let it down. We waited for around 15 minutes after being seated before being seen to. During the dinner service, it was sometimes also difficult to get hold of anyone when we needed to, despite calling for service using the tablet provided. With regards to the food coming out, it was a similar thing, some items came very quickly whilst others took quite a long time. A couple of times we had to order the same item, twice as it never came the first time. We wanted to be done within 2 hours at the latest, but the meal ended up taking nearly 3 hours due to the slow service. The decor is very insta worthy and there is even a dedicated photo taking area. Would definitely recommend for any kind of occasion, birthdays / anniversaries / date nights etc.

Good food and polite waiting staff. Especially Junior who was really helpful as we were visiting with children and he went out of his way to meet their food diet requirements. Thansk you for a lovely meal.

the quality of the food was amazing. And I really loved the customer services😜😜

First time dining at sakku samba loved everything!

Never fails to impress! The food is quality! The staff are really helpful and polite would definitely recommend!

SakkuSamba is a great place to eat. The staff is friendly the food is good and the atmosphere is relaxing. I would most certainly recommend it

Food was great. The waitress, Rosita, was very friendly and respectful. She made us have a great time.

Really nice place food its amazing wll be bacl

I came here for my birthday and I must say I really enjoyed everything from the food to the music being played. Thank you Rosita for the excellent service you provided.

It was wonderful food is amazing and seasoned the service was amazing staff were very kind and patient

Always very pleasing! They do everything to please, even my kids who have few allergies!!

Not a very bad sushi but the atmosphere is good . Romantic

I was extremely disappointed with the events that transpired during my recent visit.There was multiple situations where I feel like staff were ignorant and unwelcoming and there was a situation where one of your staff members accidentally smashed a glass right next to my table. The glass and shards of glass struck my leg, causing my leg to be cut and I had to sit in discomfort and have a concern for my safety. Despite this alarming incident, no staff member offered assistance or an apology. Instead, I was left to sit with broken glass under my table for the duration of my meal. This not only posed a safety hazard but also significantly detracted from my dining experience also after this I spoke to a member of staff and asked how to complain I wasn’t given any efforts to address this other than there’s an email that I’d need to contact, and I still had to sit with the glass under my table. I’ve contacted by email and not heard back as of yet

Great atmosphere and customer service. From the moment we walked in to the waiters service was great. Food was very tasty and arrived quick from ordering. Would highly recommend this place for a night out. Food is also Halal which is a bonus

I went here with friends on Saturday the 18th and we had a horrible experience. First of all the place is very overpriced for such a very limited menu where the quality of food is poor. 2 out of our 5 of our drinks came 30 after ordering and we had to ask 3 staff members on different occasions where our drinks where and no one came to give to give us an update. We had to wait 20 minutes after ordering cutlery on the tablet for it to come. Then at the end the server taking our bill said one of us hadn’t paid and we had to show bank statement proof that we did which was soo embarrassing and rude. The worst service I have ever had at any place. I will definitely never come back to this place. What a waste of £50.50. I’m happy we took the device charge off at this end because the service was disgusting and the place was soo empty for a Saturday evening. Chinese buffets have more options at a cheaper price at a good quality so there’s no excuse for this place that costs over twice as much.

lovely food and great ambience.

Great bottomless brunch with great food and selection of cocktails

Lovely place with good decor but bottomless brunch was so bad had to wait ages for the drinks get to the table and then all the food didn’t come out together literally had to wait so long it definitely killed the vibe for brunch with the girls. I think the 15min system just doesn’t work for the drinks as sometimes we were waiting more then that for the first drinks

Callum, Danny, furqan and Adam were great and treated us with great customer experience!

Table 30 was Great Coustmer service by furqan. What a amazing place Food 10/10 Drink10/10 especially Adam

Visited this place for a meal with friends and had a wonderful time. Really enjoyed the atmosphere and how beautifully the food was presented. The staff were also very friendly. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!

Great food, great Service Melissa was fantastic, really professional and friendly. Great asset to the team! Thank you for an amazing experience.

Amazing food and service. What an amazing host furqan, Ravi and junior. Really like the overall ambiance of the restaurant probably gonna come back soon

Cool restaurant - decorated very well. The food was not worth the price, and the service was okay.

Highly disappointed, visited here on my hen do for bottomless brunch with 7 friends. We ordered a round of drinks prior to the brunch starting this took over 20 mins to be bought to the table. We then started the brunch. Again order a pink gin from the menu this came and was not pink gin, I thought ok we will try again on the next round. Again ordered a pink gin, Again this was not what had been served. After going back to the bar multiple times to question what had been served they said "pink gin". Then the food.... This all came out at different times and was served on one plate for multiple people. This was not explained to us and had to ask the staff. We waited over 15 mins after the first part of the meal was served for the sides to be served. We had a vegetarian in the party, she was served Beef spring rolls. After questioning the waitress she didn't know what she had served to the table. We brought all the issues to the "Managers" attention and he didn't care and offered a "complementary" bottle of prosecco even tho we were on a bottomless brunch. Overall a really disappointing experience, the only saving grace was Sam and Armani the waiters.

Great food great experience lovely atmosphere. 5 stars

Edit- Emailed them after they responded to my review, received a “thank you for your email we will be in contact”. A week passed so I emailed again and still no Responce! Seems as tho they wish to make it look like they will help with my complaint but seem to just ignore the emails sent. 21st Ruined. Considering the restaurant was empty (which we now know why) I came here for my 21st birthday with approximately 12-15 guests. upon arrival we did not get greeted by any of the staff, we made it clear the booking was for a 21st celebration. No one engaged with us or the party. We was told to sit down and once sat in the area we was informed we used iPads to order. However they failed to explain that the iPads for order was for 3-4 people only as this helped when billing at the end. Food started to arrive, which we then raised an issue with the waiter that food was missing from the orders. We then had to wait 25-30 minutes AFTER everyone who had their meals had eaten. Which caused huge delay in everyone enjoying there meal together. We raised an issue with the manager/weightier who then manager was then rude to us and the weighted. He had no manners at all. We then removed the service charge due to the horrific service we experienced. And would most definitely not reccomend this to any family or friends moving forward. This is a really upsetting experience for myself and my guests who was looking forward to dining at sakku samba.

We had a lovely time here! The food and cocktails were amazing and it had a great atmosphere. Can’t thank our host Furqan and the staff enough; their service was excellent. Definitely would come back!

Really good service from , furqan and Ravi and love the ambiance and the food. The sushi was really nice.

Because the all-you-can-eat concept is such a great idea, the meal price is affordable for anyone who enjoys sushi. The food was as delicious as the serving table. I was content, as were my friends.

I had a great experience on SakkuSamba, I love sushi so I am happy to have an restaurant with great sushi. I can say is one of the best I went in Manchester. The meat and noodles are approved as well. The team was great and attentive! Congratulations guys!

A hidden gem found this place by chance gone back numerous times since.

Food was good for price, highly recommend bottomless brunch if you want to get drunk!

Bottomless brunch was below average, the option of food and drink was limited. I personally won’t be returning but the interior and aesthetics was cute

Amazing experience from start to finish, the food was perfect, the restaurant was stunning and Furqan was an amazing host.

Really fast service and amazing food. We thought 5 dishes per person was the perfect amount of food for the sizes and enjoyed every single thing we ordered.

I have been to sakkuSamba 3 times the only time I enjoyed the buffet was my 1st time there last year in March 2023 the menu was great and the food was delicious. Since they've changed their menu most of the nice dish was removed and the new menu the has nothing special on it. Please re-thinking about your current menu because it's not giving at all and it's expensive for nothing.

The presentation of the food and the decor were beautiful. However, we was disappointed with the meat menu as all the meat tasted like it was grilled too long

Beautifully decorated with a lovely vibe, not a huge selection for food, some items overpriced. But still worth going to enjoy a evening meal out.

Came here with my sister for my birthday. Service was on point. Loved the firecracker chicken, thanks so much junior you really made my birthday special

Great place, nice food and vibrant atmosphere

Junior was very helpful and caring!! Took great care of us , surely coming back soon xxx

Superb. First time for friends, we’ve been many times. As a bigger group we could go mad choosing multiple dishes and really enjoying the variety. The lamb shank biryani and black bean Dahl stole the show, however equally delicious were the masala prawns, garlic chicken, broccoli salad, gunpowder potatoes and other chicken. The poppadum serving was a bit mean for 4, but we weren’t short of food at all. Glad we had desserts too - chocolate pudding with chilli ice cream always a winner and love the new chai ice cream affogato shot - think the description doesn’t do it justice as it reads as a drink and it’s so much more than that.Professional friendly service and a packed restaurant with a cracking atmosphere.

Service all over the place, but good when you get it. Food was decent, the atmosphere and restaurant setting spot on

Took my partner here as I’d been raving about the one in Birmingham. Service from Alejandro was spot on, friendly and relaxed. We chose a range of dishes, all were delicious. I can’t say which was our favourite as the chicken tikka, dahl and broccoli salad were all up there and the rest weren’t far behind. I’d recommend booking if you can. The place was busy even though it was a Tuesday eve. Great atmosphere and a fun place to visit with whoever you are with.

Incredible food as ever and phenomenal service by our server, Rafaella. Lovely and genuine, also my partner has a dairy intolerance and nothing was too much trouble. A wonderful venue with wonderful service: we will be back!

Service was excellent and the food was exceptional- spicy though, so not for the faint hearted:) Plates are small- more like the size of a starter so order three each. 🔥

Absolutely not worth the £50+ pp with 12.5% service charge on top. Not fresh, can only order every 15 minutes, quality is questionable and limited options. A lot of the food was clearly not fresh at all: stale, hard chicken in the katsu rolls, completely floppy nori on the temaki, fried gyōza were cold and mushy, prawns in the seafood stew were somehow flaky, and the oyster mushrooms came cold. The Brazilian meat we ordered was overcooked, cold and definitely not at all like what it looked like on the tablet. The glass my cocktail came in had a big chip in it, but to be fair, was replaced when I asked. The vibe was really odd, a lot of people taking selfies but not really taking much, with loud Brazilian music and Japanese decor. Definitely somewhere that's more Instagram style over substance. My partner and I had been looking forward to this for a while and were very dissapointed. If you're looking for an unlimited sushi option, Sushi Mami puts more care into their food, more options and for £20 less a head.

We ordered tuna, salmon and sea bass sashimi and it was not fresh at all Tasted pretty off Service was friendly though and did a good job

Went with kids and friends. Super food and great atmosphere. Lovely decor and wide variety of dishes. A little pushy on the ordering but all in all a wonderful experience! ⚽️ went before a match!

I recommend this place, very nice system and food very good.

Came here for breakfast whilst staying in Manchester. Its an old bank so has some fabulous features! Friendly, efficient staff. We bother ordered The Farsi Omelette with sides of sausages and mushrooms. The omelette is delicious, just the right hint of chilli and served with bread and tomatoes! I come just for that!

SakkuSamba is definitely one of Manchester’s Gems and top spots! The food is absolutely amazing, the atmosphere is unique and vibrant and the staff are extremely welcoming. With the ability to order food and drinks at the table using the simple tablet interface, this place is a no brainier! We decided to go for the Tapas Très which gives you 3 plates each for just £15 per person allowing you to taste a variety of fusion flavours at a low cost! (We had to go for 2-3 rounds of this so we could try most of the menu) My recommendations: Tempura Prawns & Avocado Futokami Salmon Teriyaki Maki Uramaki Coconut Rice Japanese Beef Curry Chilli Con Carne Flying Fish Roe Gunkan Sweet Chilli Squid Bites I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant to locals and visitors, especially for occasions or romantic meals! 10/10

Excellent food and its all halal. We did the £48 all you can eat tapas and it was great. This price doesn't include drinks or dessert though but given the amount and quality of food you can order, it's not bad. Sushi standouts are the spicy salmon and chicken katsu and mango. Beautiful inside and great service. Would recommend.

Was there for best friend party and we had enjoys at the first half time while we there until the another waiter came to serve ours drinks and one of my friend only remind him that we been waiting still for one more drink and then he say “I only got two hand” in a very rude way toward us and we all so shocked with this behaviour and he came back serve us a drinks and try to arguments more about his had two hand of course we known every human have two hand, instead of argument with us he should say politely and apologise and all of us is a restaurant owner too we know best how to treat and say to customers but not rude like This place and also we asked to see manager but she is useless too and no skill to be in this position too, the place was quite and we has booked private room but the staffs treat us no poorly with no help, if such as nice place to go but staffs was so rude no way anyone want to return again, and they buy procesco from Coop(7.50) and sell for us £34-40 So will not recommend in special occasion because night ruined your party

Working in hospitality myself I understand what it takes to deliver incredible service. I want to shout out this place for being the loveliest after work lounge bar I was recommended by a friend. The wine selection is amazing and I have to give a special shout out to Mo for his recommendations, service, conversations and company.

the price is really high, food is really bad

Super overpriced for the quality of the food, very disappointing.

Our server was excellent he was so helpful and explained everything he offered us suggestions and they where excellent as well he defiantly knows his stuff.

The 6 of us went there for lunch. The service was excellent and the food was delicious. The service was quick and efficient, and the food came up quickly . The waiter Alberto explained the menu to us and made recommendations. An excellent experience . Thank you 😊

I am very pleased with the service and there was a waiter who was very thoughtful and filled with surprises I am pleased but the ruby chicken was extremely spicy I couldn’t stand it but everything was great that waiter made my day, what a load of luck I can say I am pleased 😁

The staff make you feel like family the food takes you to different parts of the world and the decor is amazing 😍

We enjoyed a lovely lunch at one of our favourite restaurants. The food was amazing and the service impeccable as usual. Couldn’t fault it. Really impressed that they have a dairy free menu with lots of choice. Other restaurants could learn from this. I felt completely confident that my dietary needs would be met when ordering dishes.

Food was amazing great ambiance. Highly recommend. Service was impeccable and our waitress Ira was so lovely.

The food looks normal, but don’t expect anything from the taste. The main thing is that the decoration is beautiful and the girls are top-notch😁👍

Amazing vibes, great food and the workers always go an extra mile. Great range of food on the unlimited tapas menu

Absolutly excellent, I got the 3 for £15 deal with my partner and so we had 6 small dishes between us and it was plenty. Food was such a high standard and with the deal worked out not too pricey. Staff are really friendly and loved the self ordering menus, food came really quick and after we had eaten we went down stairs to the bar for cocktails. All in all a perfect evening would highly recommend!

Ngl the zombies made it a nice vibe!

The food as I’ve experienced the last 2 times is unbelievable, I returned expecting the same excellent food and service but my experience was transformed by the lovely waitress “Chops” who was honest and fun. She guided us round the menu and put a smile on our face everytime she checked in on us, I love the food, but Chops’s attitude made my day.

Chops is amazing!! Lovely girl with great service! Definitely made our night food was lovely but service was better, lots of love chops xx

I came here for my birthday meal and I would recommend to anyone, the service was lovely everything was well explained without being overbearing, tablets are intuitive and easy to order from. We ordered 5 dishes each for £21 per person which gave us 10 to share between us and we struggled to finish, for small plates they’re very filling. Though we ordered primarily sushi, there’s lots of variety in flavours and options for dietary restrictions so there’s something everyone would be happy with here. The food was great, out fast and presented beautifully. I was even brought a birthday brownie at he end of the meal which was very sweet. We’d definitely come again (:

Super service & delicious not too heavy breakfast - perfect pre cinema visit Loved the surroundings - ideal retreat from a damp Manchester day

The staff were amazing and so was the food

The food and Atmosphere was amazing! Would definitely come back here again for the Unlimited Tapas.

Great atmosphere and services as well as great locations for social media posts. However food need more choices regarding the price paid. Also parking location unclear.

Veru good good And veru nice service fron zarah

Fantastic food in beautiful surroundings. Because I’d heard how popular this restaurant was I’d expected the service to be standard but it was next level amazing! Ben our waiter was so friendly and attentive. The food was outstanding. Thank you for a lovely meal!

This place is just wonderful, not just for the food but also for the building which is stunning and dates back to the 1920s when it was used as a masonic lodge. The interior really is magnificent with lovely dark wood panelling and beautiful stained glass windows which, along with ceiling fans, captures the feeling of the colonial era. The food was sensational, bursting with so many rich and distinctive flavours, yet nicely balanced at the same time. Even so, my taste buds could barely cope! Dishoom definitely feels like an authentic Bombay dining experience and, although I’ve never visited India, I’ve eaten lots of Indian food and this is Indian cuisine at its very best. My daughter-in-law and I shared a number of dishes and, whilst they all delighted, the stand-outs for us were the spicy lamb chops, gunpowder potatoes, chilli broccoli salad, masala prawns, house black daal and chilli sprouts, the latter being one of the Christmas Specials (we were there in December). Without doubt, this is one of the best Indian meals I’ve ever eaten. Dishoom has a high ranking and deserves it; the presentation of our meal was aesthetically pleasing, service was faultless and there was a great ambience. With the bar set so high, I’m not sure that anywhere else can reach it!

Nice lounge to have a drink in.

Amazing quality of food, top class and wonderful staff and atmosphere, this is my second time here and it won’t be my last. Thank you for a wonderful experience 👍🏻👍🏻🤩🤩

On arrival they didn’t have our table ready even though it was booked, we was sent upstairs, but there wasn’t anyone to greet us and we looked like lost puppies. Everything was ordered through a tablet, but the drinks orders got messed up and food came out in drips and drabs, there was no explanation of food being doubled up on plates, which then confused us to who’s was who’s. We had to start eating to prevent it going cold before the rest of the food came out which meant the waitresses started taking plates. There was no communication from them, they didn’t ask if we’d like the table cleared and took plates with food on and when I asked them to leave it I was told they were “just clearing the empties” but some were not empty and I was made to feel like I’d been rude. Service was poor, there was no communication from staff, they just put stuff on the table and walked away, no apologies for mix ups or taking plates with food on. Food was just ok, drinks were standard It looked pretty, aesthetically pleasing and great photo ops, but there was no atmosphere at all, I didn’t see one member of staff smiling and it didn’t feel relaxed at all. One of the worst brunches I’ve been to, wouldn’t return

Excellent experience from start to finish. When we arrived we were seated at the bar to wait for our table. The bar tender explained the drinks menus to us and by the time we had ordered our table was ready and our drinks followed us...

Exceptional service as always, especially from our waiter Ben. He took the time to explain and answer all the questions we had about the dishes Amazing food, tasty well presented and most importantly hot. Definitely will be returning.

Junior and Jude have made this service and event the best experience in Manchester 10/10 if you don’t attend I don’t know what your doing

Te food was great, love the staff the and the drink were amazing

Came on a Wednesday, not very busy. Service was quick and staff was very helpful explaining the system. Rosita was great and had a very nice presence during our meal 💕
