Home Chinese Manchester in Manchester

We had a truly wonderful dining experience at Home Chinese Restaurant! Even though we didn’t have a reservation, we were lucky to be seated quickly. When we asked for a highchair, the staff immediately brought one for our little one. While we were looking at the menu, our toddler accidentally broke a ceramic chopstick holder. The staff were incredibly kind and patient — not only did they not blame us, they even thoughtfully switched to plastic kids’ utensils for our child afterward. Their attentiveness really warmed our hearts. We ordered the roast duck, stir-fried napa cabbage, seafood soup, and egg fried rice — all of them were absolutely delicious, especially the duck, which was crispy on the outside and tender inside. This is a place we will definitely return to. Highly recommend!

Good experience and very nice manager

Great food. Get the staff managers to order for you

Wonderful staff. Great food and large portions. Definitely recommend a visit.

Fried durian dessert was very nice, others, like the dimsum was not very nice. They tasted like frozen prepacked dimsum. The congee/porridge was really blend.

We had a beautiful meal here. The service was lovely, very attentive but not too much. We had the set meal B for 2, way too much food for us to finish off, but it was delicious. Totally recommend the pepper beef and sweet and sour prawns. When back in Manchester I'll definitely return. Thank you for a lovely experience. 🙂

I don’t normally leave reviews but for this restaurant I made an exception. What a fantastic, friendly and authentic Chinese restaurant. We went there for my birthday and they pulled out all the stops to make me feel special - banner, balloons and even a dim sum with a candle. The staff were amazing, so attentive and welcoming and the food was incredible. If you’re in two minds whether to visit this place, go because it is definitely worth it. We can’t wait to return on our next trip to Manchester!!

Fabulous food, good value £25 set meal

This has been such a great experience. My twin and me decided to try Home Chinese Restaurant on a whim, and we were not disappointed. I don't really leave a lot of reviews but today was such a positive and memorable experience. We came as walk-ins and were welcomed warmly. The manager was so friendly and bubbly, immediately warmed up to us and made us feel just like "home". Once decided on the dishes, we didn't wait long until everything came. The staff made sure to introduce every dish that came, everyone came to check up on us and how we found the food routinely. Never once did it feel too much, it was just perfect. They felt so attentive and made sure to wipe the tables after each set of meals came out. It felt like the staff were familiar and friendly with the customers, and the atmosphere just felt really good. The food was alright too, but I think the service was even more outstanding!

Good location and online booking brought us there for lunch last Saturday. Didn’t feel welcomed. A bit disappointed with the food. We were given 1.5 hours time for the next guests.

From a walk in, friendly entrance. Great staff, drink was prompt with Prawn Crackers. Staff had knowledge and recommendation of food. If you like Dim Sum then plenty of choice. Main meal wow taste buds. Great meal and staff, want to try everything on menu.

Been here a few times, and without saying "it's brilliant". Please go and try it, you will not be disappointed.

Lately I’ve been here for some dim sum, arrived at 1pm on a Monday. It was quite busy and full of locals. Overall the food was great and definitely would love to come back! My favourite is the fried squid tentacles, the cheung fun could have been better. However I’m a little disappointed that they forgot about the durian crisp order :(

Good service, good food. What’s not to like? Wanted to come here for a while and it went above and beyond

The food was gorgeous and the service even more so. I would have bought even more if I could!! Special thanks to Amy and Anthony

One of best dim sum restaurants i have tried. Even better than some of Hong Kong restaurants

Nice food and exceptionally friendly and professional staff.

The best Chinese food I have ever eaten.

Must order items: Pawns dumplings and steamed rolls Fried lambs may not be as good as dumplings

Made a confirmed reservation for a table for 6 at 2:15pm last Sunday. Our party arrived on time but unfortunately still had to wait for 30 mins before our table was ready. The staff and the manager are very nice and friendly, and service is excellent and highly attentive. We ordered some dim sum, braised pork belly, fried rice with egg, and lotus leaf stick rice. They are all very nicely presented and delicious. The portion of dim sum is about 50% larger than the norm you’ll get in other restaurants. I do have some suggestions for improvement though. 1. You shouldn’t keep customer waiting for 30 mins if you have accepted and confirmed a reservation. 2. I write this in Chinese as it’s more relevant to Chinese customers. 炸兩有啲令人失望，完全唔脆。似乎係返蒸嘅。 Hope my two cents would be helpful in making you an even better Chinese restaurant.

I have never been to a Chinese restaurant as good as this one before, and I’ve been to a lot! The owner, Jason, is a perfect gentleman and has got it just right. An obvious foodie, we could have chatted to him for hours. We had a set menu which was delicious. Starters, duck pancakes, and gorgeous mains… fillet steak, chicken and sweet and sour prawns. Honestly delicious, beautifully prepared food. Also the service was the best. Each and every member of staff was friendly, chatty and customer focussed. Brilliantly trained. Couldn’t think of any negatives if I tried. Perfect.

I loved this place, from service to food 5 stars all the way

Lovely Chinese in Manchester’s Gay Village, right near Canal Street. Beautifully decorated restaurant. Great food and reasonably priced. We had the set menu and there was so much food, highly recommend. Only criticism was the toilets downstairs which are horrible! The really let the place down.

Good dim sum with some nice twists. Flavours of dumplings were "ho ching". Fried items were a little oily, dark. Overall v good.

Tuesday 18th March 2025 I arrived from.london with 2 friends we heard about this place dropped our luggage of at hotel to get there for lunch Upon arriving the resturant was 80% to capacity we where a party of 3 I looked around to see where I wanted us to sit ,to be told our seats are Downstairs as upstairs is full.(not in my eyesight ) We went downstairs to a empty dining room freezing cold with just the 1 lady waitress who could not understand basic English. I asked her please to double check upstairs as it was FREEZING and no way could we sit here.she went away came back No sir you must sit here . We looked at each other and decided to leave No one or manager who was the man on duty offered us a drink or time limit for availability 1st impressions are lasting Now did our faces not fit ? Upstairs Thankfully Manchester China town is full of beautiful lunch time Resturants which within 10 mins we where seated Offered complimentary tea And service 10/10 This place will never see us again or any of our business clients.

A fabulous meal, beautiful fresh ingredients and excellent service. Loved the extra touches because we were celebrating a birthday.

This is a great Chinese / Cantonese restaurant. The food and presentation is excellent and the staff are very friendly and hospitable . I would highly recommend this place if you are in Manchester and fancy Chinese food. We were shocked to learn the staff don’t know Kylie tho 😂

Best char sieu pork belly I've had ever at a really good price would come again

The beef was delicious and tender served with fluffy rice.

Great Cantonese food, value and service. Will be back!

Food was very tasty, hot and was clearly full of fresh ingredients. Good sized portions without being overwhelming. Great service.

Absolutamente primera clase bienvenida como un viajero de negocios en solitario. El cerdo asado crujiente era de clase mundial. No era barato, pero las porciones eran realmente masivas, un solo plato alimentará cómodamente a dos personas. La camarera era muy dulce y atento y merecía la propina que dejé. ¡Volveremos!

An absolute 10/10 experience! The staff were all very helpful and extremely lovely! The food was some of the best I’ve ever had. Nothing to complain about at all. Everything was perfect.

Great service and delicious food!

Excellent food. Good prices. Will be back

We visited Home on our first night in Manchester and we were very impressed. The waiting service was very good. All staff were very attentive and took great care of us throughout the whole evening. The food was exceptional and tasted totally fresh and was clearly cooked to order. A great overall experience. We would definitely eat here again. Thanks Kai and your team for a great dining experience.

For the quality of the food and specially the service, it is a very cheap place. This is it a fast food, don't expect to eat for 15 quids. Everything was absolutely outstanding, that restaurant deserves 4.7-4.8 minimum.

This is the second time we've been there for a celebration. We were required to spend at least £200 for a room, but it was only available for two hours—even when they had space and no other customers waiting. The manager urged us to place an order and pack the food when our time was up. The food quality has dropped. We won’t be returning!

Truly a taste of home - so glad that there is an affordable and delicious option for dimsum in Manchester

2nd visit to this restaurant, and it's now become i must to eat here whenever I'm in Manchester! The food is glorious, and the portion sizes are huge. The service is excellent with really friendly staff who are engaging and ready to give recommendations from the really extensive menu at your request. It's a 7-minute walk from Manchester Picadilly station as well, which helps in terms of convenience. Can't recommend highly enough.

Popped in here , when I was in Manchester with a friend . Service was excellent and staff were so friendly to us . I'm not a restaurant type person , more of a meal deal person when on city breaks , so I felt like a contestant from I'm a celebrity, get me out of here , eating all these types of those dishes . But I loved most of them and we had the other customers and staff laughing at us . Can't praise the place enough

Had a fantastic takeaway, fantastic customer service and quality tasty food. Will definitely return.

We’ve been here a few times now and it’s now become our favourite place for authentic traditional Chinese dim sum. The standard and quality of food is consistently excellent and delicious. Also the setting is lovely too and all the staff are super friendly. Highly recommend them!

It was almost full when it opened. It's best to make a reservation first. The snacks served at Yum Cha are authentic, and the attitude of the staff is also very cordial. The dim sum portions are a little bigger than in Asia. The smooth egg and green onion rice rolls are delicious. The tea is a bit bland.

Place was fully loaded, but they offered place at a bar and served super nice lunch. Portions are not for one, be ready. However they offered place take away if you want so. Very kind and attentive service.

Very nice service. Definitely recommended. Large portions

Fantastic time and Amazing foods

The food is delicious, the staff is friendly, and they answer food-related questions with great patience. Nice atmosphere, and the teapot on the table can be refilled with hot water for free—perfect for enjoying tea on a cold day at Etten.

I was wandering around Manchester, having not eaten the entire day. The time was creeping towards 18:00 (important detail) and I searched “best dim sum in Manchester”. I entered this establishment and said “prove to me you’re the best dim sum restaurant in Manchester” The kind host said “we don’t do dim sum past 17:00 but we welcome the challenge!” Admittedly, I had to order quickly but a hungry man knows what he wants. I ordered the salt and pepper chicken, steamed glutennous rice, steamed spare ribs and 4 different types of dim sum. I was blown away by all of them! The waiters are constantly paying attention to your table (I like that), and occasionally pass comments like “that food is ALL for you?” I really enjoyed dining here and I hope to return here soon! I highly recommend Home Chinese Manchester!

La comida y el servicio aquí era simplemente fabuloso. Al igual que el encantador Prosecco rosa. Personal servicial, muy atento y ayudado con el menú y la comida preciosa. No estoy seguro de que me gustaría sentarme abajo, pero el piso de arriba era un ambiente brillante

Always the best dim sum and customer service, a home away from home! I love how classy and cosy it is, and the food is really high quality and consistently good!

Terrible experience. Despite being a lover of Chinese cuisine, always experienced in Italy, convinced by the high reviews, I tried the restaurant. What can I say... there were 3 of us. Each of us did not appreciate the "style" of the cuisine proposed, both the starters and Especially the noodles with a mushy base that characterized any dish presented. Dishes returned untouched. Let's not talk about the very high bill, but we are in England and that is justified. Good service, nice environment. We left hungry and with the certainty that we will never see each other again. I wonder how it is possible that dishes like these, I won't go into detail and I avoid adjectives, are considered close to 5 stars. Chinese cuisine is something else, that's for sure.

Top quality food, and very friendly attentive staff, we'll definitely visit again next time we are in Manchester.

The dumplings were amazing, and the service were great!

special wibe to it on pricey point if eating on your own

Excellent Chinese restaurant with a great selection of dishes including dim sum until late in the evening. Definitely a go to spot.

Delicious food and very good service. We love Dim Sam very much. Also very close to Manchester Piccadilly station, just 3-5 minutes walk away. Right next to Canel Street.

Gran comida - ingredientes frescos , excelente sabor La sopa caliente y agria era como solía tenerla. La elección vegetariana y vegana fue genial. El personal era muy acogedor y eficiente, pero no demasiado apresurado en el servicio. El ambiente y la decoración era relajante.

Ristorante cinese elegante a due passi dal Gay village e vicino a Chinatown. Personale molto cortese e professionale. Prezzi leggermente più alti rispetto ad altri cinesi della zona ma sicuramente ne vale la pena : porzioni abbondanti, gamberi giganti nel riso e nei noodles e tutto perfetto. Consigliata degustazione dim sum, freschi e squisiti....Molto consigliato!

A brilliant find …restaurant modern..staff and management carnt do enough for you,food amazing

Qué hallazgo tan brillante... justo al lado de la calle Canal. Un moderno restaurante luminoso con un gran personal para cuidar de usted. La comida era excelente .. un poco demasiado, pero lo pedimos ... vale la pena una visita

One of the best places to have dim sum in Manchester right now (and the best fried rice we have had in a long time). Their other dishes were also very tasty. Glad to see more good quality, authentic restaurants in Manchester. This place can be quite busy. Make sure to book in advance.

Went for New Year’s Eve traveled from Liverpool with our family it was amazing

Fantastic from start to finish. Staff were attentive and friendly. Seating was relaxed and comfortable. Food was fantastic. Could not fault our visit at all.

Friendly staff and accommodating to allergies. Turned up on NYE without a booking and the staff managed to squeeze me in and the service and food were still amazing

Late lunch today. We tried a couple of dim sum and snacks such as mangosteen beef, custard buns, mala cake, fried shrimp crackers, fried Luo Bai cake with X0 sauce, fried fresh squid.... Add fried rice noodles, braised pork with pickled vegetables, etc. Generally it tastes good, except for the braised pork with pickled vegetables (you really don’t have to try it)☺️

It was the best Chinese food I've ever had. I couldn't forget the taste of the dim sum, and all the food, including the custard, was so good for Koreans to eat. The staff was so friendly and the atmosphere was so good. I want to go again.

I had dim sum for lunch at Open Run 🥹 Home food is the best in England, which is famous for tasteless food. Really..❤️ Dumplings and changfun are really delicious, and meat dumplings that look like steamed buns are also the best. The dumplings taste like menbosha but are so delicious. I ordered it one more time. It was the most delicious cucumber bowl I’ve ever had in my life!!!! It was even better than the famous Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant in Bangkok, so if you're Korean, don't be suspicious and go eat dim sum..🫶🏻 Oh, and it goes great with jasmine tea, so keep that in mind! The staff are so friendly, and it's a place I'd want to visit every day if I were in Korea. Really 🥹🥹❤️ The atmosphere of the store is very nice, and it is neat and clean, so it gets 100 points even if you come with adults! The dim sum was so delicious that I went there again for dinner when I was in Manchester! I added it because I could only leave one review🥹 The wasabi shrimp and dinner menu was really delicious, so be sure to go there several times when you're in Manchester!!!!!!!!

Very tasty food. I love your dim sum and the crispy Cantonese beef was simply delicious! The Peking duck seemed too dry and shredded to me, but maybe that's how it was supposed to be. Very polite service, honest and friendly. I could feel good there and eat well.

The food was very good as was the service. The dumplings were amazing. I missed a bit of the Chinese atmosphere, like Chinese music. Overall very good food and great service. I recommend this restaurant. The atmosphere of the restaurant is at a good level.

I had a soup and stir fry veggies. It was delicious!

Best Dim sum I had in years. A must go!

Terrible service, the waitresses are super rude and mean

Salíamos a tomar unas copas de Navidad y éramos picoteadores. He pasado por este restaurante muchas veces, pero nunca he estado en, así que arriesgamos nuestro brazo en conseguir una mesa en un viernes a la hora del té tan cerca de Navidad, pero tuvimos suerte. Se nos mostró a nuestra mesa y nos preguntó si queríamos bebidas. Ambos tomamos una cerveza china y notamos que muchas de las mesas estaban ocupadas con clientes chinos, lo que siempre es una gran señal. Nos dieron menús y un menú de banquete especial que para dos personas era realmente extenso y no sobreprecio. Pedimos dos sopas calientes y agrias y tomé Siu Mai dim sum y mi amigo tomó una mezcla de albóndigas de carne. Nos preguntaron si nos gustarían por separado, lo que siempre es bueno. No me gusta que mi dim sum se enfríe mientras como mi sopa porque soy un comedor lento. El dim sum llegó con salsa de soja. La sopa tenía una patada, pero era hermosa tenía muy buenas gambas en ella y sabía muy fresco. La dim sum se servía caliente y vaporoso y se notaba que estaban hechos en la cocina del restaurante que sabían muy bien y no como el siu mai habitual que se obtiene. Nos gustó tanto que pedimos otra porción. Tomamos otra ronda de tragos con mi amigo tomando una lata de IPA que había visto a alguien bebiendo en otra mesa El personal era encantador, atento y la señora que nos atendió era muy divertido sin querer. El restaurante es enorme, hay una planta baja donde están los baños que estaban impecables y también hay un nivel por encima de la zona de estar de la barra principal. Sin duda lo volveré a visitar.

Tasty food and helpful and friendly staff

Fantastic place to eat Great selection of food Extremely tasty Brilliant staff with great service Fabulous restaurant

Definitely your bougier dim sum place. Nice decor, great vibes & v good service! Food was a little hit & miss though… the stir fried beef ho fun, roasted meats & deep fried prawn dumplings w/ salad cream were my fav!

The food, service and atmosphere were brilliant, we had Dim Sum and it was delicious, plenty to choose from for meat eaters and Vegetarian or Vegan, a lovely restaurant we will certainly return X

Had our first dinner at Home after returning Manchester by coach. The sweet and sour pork was mediocre, the pork was not freshly made, very dry and tasted bland. The source was okay. The fish with pickled cabbage again was mediocre, the bowl was half filled with bean sprouts and pickled cabbage was hardly found. The fish used was neither cod nor sea bass. I reckoned that it was not of high valued fish. If a restaurant was good, I would probably think of revisiting again for tasting another dishes. Definitely not this one.

Buena comida. Personal amable. Buen menú. Bonita carta de vinos. Los entrantes llegaron rápido, pero la espera para el plato principal muy larga. Era un sábado ajetreado para ser justos, pero 45 minutos para el segundo plato no es grandioso

Fantastic food, so tasty. Well worth a visit.

This is my go-to restaurant for home delivery. The roast meats are the best and plentiful. The chicken feet are divine

Best authentic Chinese food with amazing service!

Authentic contemporary Chinese cuisine in a fantastic setting. I would really recommend this place.

Encontré este lugar completamente por casualidad y me alegro de haberlo hecho! Todo el personal era amable, muy amable. Un montón de elección en el menú, y cocinado muy rápido.

Because of where I live, I have not had dim sum in over 10 years. We asked a local store in China town where to get real dim sum and they recommended Home. They were so, so right. The turnip cake, one of my favorites, was just perfect and the steamed rice in lotus leaves was so flavorful. My special treat was the taro dumplings, only available on the weekends. All the dishes were delicious and they kept the spicy chili oil coming.

Lovely staff. The food is nice. Place is clean and tidy.

Today, two friends and I visited Home Chinese after a long day, hoping for a nice meal. We didn’t want to wait in long lines, so we decided to try our luck here. Unfortunately, it turned into a frustrating experience from the moment we arrived. When we asked if there was a table for three, the floor manager just left us hanging there without answer, tending to other things while we waited for an answer. All we needed was a simple “yes” or “no” so we could decide whether to stay or move on to another place. After dealing with train delays and a tough day, the last thing we wanted was to wait aimlessly in a poorly organized queue. After an extended wait, we were finally told that there was no table available. I mentioned to the floor manager that it would’ve been considerate to let us know earlier, sparing us from wasting time standing around. Shockingly, he responded rudely, saying, “It’s just 10 minutes—how is that a long time?” This kind of response was completely disrespectful and dismissive, especially when time can mean different things to different people under this situation. We chose this place because we’d had a pleasant experience here before, one of my friends really like their dishes, but after this treatment, it’s safe to say we won’t be returning. If basic courtesy and communication are missing, it’s hard to enjoy a meal. This was a deeply frustrating experience, and I hope the management can improve their approach to customer service in the future.

Absolutamente fabuloso Personal muy amable y comida extremadamente deliciosa Pato crujiente con tortitas Sopa caliente y agria Gambas reales en jengibre Filete de filete estilo cantonés Pollo agridulce Fideos blandos y brotes de judías Los mejores chinos que hemos tenido durante años

Had a nice and cosy dinner in this restaurant. Thank you. 1. Beef fried flat noodles 8.5/10 2. Roast duck 8/10 3. Service 9/10 4. Cleanliness 9:10 5. Will come again: Yes

I took my daughter here For a meal to celebrate her ninth birthday with my family, the staff went all out, we got there and they had put up happy birthday balloons and banners, they dimmed the light and the whole restaurant sang happy birthday to my nine-year-old daughter, they then gave her a birthday card …. she absolutely loved it, she felt like a princess, I will be comming to this restaurant again 100% wonderful food with wonderful staff, we spent £180 and it was worth every penny

Great little Chinese restaurant. Definitely better than Glamorous restaurant on Oldham Road

Friendly staff, excellent food and lovely decor.

Best dim sum in Manchester - I particularly recommend the prawn Cheung fun!

Excellent Chinese food in Manchester, highly recommend this restaurant, good selection of wines and the dumplings were incredible, fried rice and the oyster sauce shrimp was an exceptional.

Bad food, terrible service, waitress got really annoyed at the request to bring me napkins, so annoyed and will never come back.

Cenamos aquí durante un viaje de negocios. Estaba buscando específicamente un restaurante alrededor del área de Chinatown / Canal. Tengo alergia leve a los frutos secos y la mayoría no atiende alergias. Me encontré con este. Además de verse mucho mejor que la mayoría de los demás, estaban felices de cubrir alergias y aconsejaron sobre lo que podía y no podía comer. Mientras ordenaba, el gerente hizo un esfuerzo para asegurar que las alergias estuvieran cubiertas. Durante toda la comida, el personal se registró para asegurarse de que estaba contento con la comida. En general, la comida era excelente. El set starter era bueno con una mezcla de opciones. El cordero en frijol negro principal era genial también. Feliz con la elección y más que nada, el personal atento.

Very authentic, quality Chinese cuisine, but rather pricey; most items £20ish (certainly not an all you can eat studenty sort of place). At the same time very open and noisy and the toilets weren't particularly nice, so we didnt appreciate the price tag for, say, chicken feet and pork knuckles. Service was good, although the staff kept speaking to my partner in Chinese because she's Asian. Dim sum not served with any sauces so actually quite dry.

I’m sorry but not sorry, but even my dog eats better than I eat here. Food absolutely disgusting 🤮 Never again.

Generally speaking, all wild animals are delicious. But the price is a bit more expensive than other similar products
