We had a booking for 4 people on a Tuesday night and it was already lively inside. The place was nicely decorated and had a positive atmosphere. I noticed there weren’t any tables near the bathroom which is great. All three of the servers we had were very pleasant and funny! The person who took our orders was willing to talk me through the different options in terms of how each dish was prepared as I wanted something lower in calories and there wasn’t a calorie menu available. Our food came out fairly swiftly and we were warned that they’ll come out at different times as common with mezze dining. The vegan options were just as tasty as the veggie and meat dishes. All came out presented beautifully and at good temperatures. There was no salt or pepper on the table but the food was seasoned well so no need for it personally. We were checked up on and offered more drinks. At the end, my friend wanted a to-go box and they had some. The dishes ranged from £6 to £15 ish and so we all paid around £30 including drinks and tips.

This is some of the best food I've had in Manchester. Absolutely delicious and I'll definitely be going back. Reasonably priced too considering the location. Only thing that could be improved would be for the tables to be a bit wider to fit all the dishes and for more sound insulation on the ceiling as it's a bit too noisy.

Amazing food, amazing drinks, amazing service! Came during the January 50% off food deal and greedily ordered most of the vegan tapas available - all of which was gorgeous. The cauliflower, oyster mushrooms, and falafel were highlights - even tho I usually find falafel overdone. The fig negroni was lovely, and we had orange wine with our mains. We had the amaro digestif to finish, which was a lovely finish to an overindulgent, but budget friendly, evening.

Went with colleagues from London last night after booking a table via telephone. I did amend the amount of people via the WhatsApp service. Upon arrival the host was incredibly rude and stand offish and gave the group a dirty look. I explained that I had a booking and she asked to see a confirmation, showed her my phone and she rolled her eyes. We sat at the raised section and were told that we could have a table in 30 mins (despite me showing the phone with my booking information…)so we went to a bar next door and came back. Upon entry the second time, the staff were so lovely and welcoming! Our waiter was a delight and the food was phenomenal! We had a really great time just a shame that the initial welcome was somewhat lukewarm to say the least.

We stayed at Manchester for the weekend and wanted somewhere new to try as we visited from South Wales, and we are so happy that we found Maray! Straight away we were made to feel welcome by incredibly friendly staff, who explained the menu to us and recommended how many dishes to eat etc. We ordered 8 dishes between us, and they were all super tasty and fresh!! They were all packed with so much flavour and were inventive dishes. Super pleased that we visited and would highly recommend to anyone visiting Manchester!

Overall a good experience. Really friendly greeting on arrival. Seated immediately and given water. The menu was fully explained. Service throughout was wonderful. The decor of the restaurant was nice and tables well spaced so you had a lot of room. The food was nice however there were a few dishes not to my taste. The chocolate ganache was not like any other I have tasted, more like a chocolate sauce that had been thickened with cornflour. The price point was reasonable. I wouldn’t rule out visiting again but might not be top of my list.

We visited Maray recently for my sisters birthday and it met every expectation, we had one gluten free diner and one vegan and they were catered too beautifully - my favourite was the mushroom shawarma and the braised carrot dish was a firm favourite, definitely definitely start with hummus and pitta! The star of the show had to be the person that served us, Tina was incredible, very attentive and made sure to reassure our gf diner when she was a little nervous - 10000/10 one of the best dining experiences I’ve had a while! Thank you Maray and thank you Tina ♥️

My visit to Maray was brilliant and I genuinely can’t fault anything. The food was some of the best flavour / texture combinations I’ve ever tasted. I’m obsessed with the hummus and the seabass dish. The pricing for the quality and portion size is brilliant - there’s so many restaurants where I’ve paid much more money for mediocre quality. I also love the vibe and decor of the restaurant. Our waitress was very accommodating, she gave us some great recommendations! And the guy on the door was also very lovely too! Overall I had an amazing experience 😊

There’s something a bit special about Maray. It’s not just on point - but ahead of the game - for the small, creative plates but packed with skilled flavours and cooking vibe. It manages fun, friendly and unhurried, timely service even for single diners amidst the Xmas group bookings frenzy. It’s welcoming at all times (well, both times I went inc during mid afternoon autumn quiet zone) and it stands up as a quality restaurant with strong wine and cocktail game as much as a warm and welcoming indie feel. Value is great. Servicenis terrific. Cooking is special. Smart, enticing, varied menu. One to return to, again and again.

We went to eat there while visiting Manchester. It turned out to be a pleasant surprise. We tried the menu from which you can choose three courses for £19. We tried six different options, all of them very good. In addition, most of the dishes were gluten-free and those that were not were adapted to be suitable for celiacs. The staff was very very friendly, even recommending what to visit after the meal. If this restaurant were in my city, I would come frequently.

Went for Sunday lunch with one of my daughters and we really enjoyed. We shared the sirloin of beef cooked pink which was amazing and so tender and also saffron roasted chicken which was both moist and delicious. Served with four large tasty roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and a mixture of vegetables.The braised red cabbage was outstanding. For desert we had the cheesecake and a very rich chocolate Ganache with Biscoff crumbs and cherries. The food was outstanding and our waiter Dean was excellent. Well worth a second visit.

I've been twice and will definitely return. The service on the first occasion was better. I think as it was a Monday night for the second trip and we were in the quieter section of the restaurant it was very hard to attract attention to order more drinks etc (there's a partition along the bench seating) but when they did come to the table the staff were lovely. Definitely something Maray team should be aware of for weeknights but it wouldn't stop me returning. However, on both occasions the food was excellent. Mushrooms were a tad too oily but everything else was amazing. Best falafel of my life. Great for vegetarians and meat eaters alike. They also did an AMAZING alcohol free amaretto sour, I was driving but this was just as good as the real thing. Nice wine list too. I will 100% return and I often recommend to friends.

Posing as a mediterranean cuisine place, lovely Mediterranean dishes but with only Sunday roast options on a Sunday. We came all the way outside the city on a rainy day to experience your modern improvisations on a cuisine with rich flavour and this was not possible. To finish on a high the waiter left us the machine to navigate through the app to make a payment. Review your communications and decision making when setting up the daily menu.

We booked online, you will be asked to insert your credit card as a precaution in case you do not respect the reservation, as it is a very popular place despite the very intimate environment. The staff is friendly and nice, they are extremely helpful and kind throughout the evening. The place is evocative and the menu sublime, one dish better than the other.

It was a busy Friday night in Manchester & we had already been turned away once as walk ins. When we arrived at Maray they greeted us with warmth & found us a table for two. It was a busy place at 8:00 PM. Lots of happy diners. We settled on pita, baba ghanoush, disco cauliflower, lentils and rice and a fatoush salad. All were simple. All were fresh. All were delicious. Our server was exceedingly charming (we gave him a cash tip of 10 GBP). He guided us to some cocktail lounges to continue enjoying the night. This is a pleasant place for food, drink & conversation.

Majority of the menu is already gluten free (including the fried chicken!) and is coeliac safe (no reaction at the time of writing anyway!) They really looked after me, food was great and they even had Free Damm 0% GF beer. It was great, I'd happily recommend it to all my coeliac pals! Will be back and in greater numbers.

However tbh the chicken was not good at all,,so tasteless and very oily but they were kind enough to take it off the bill as they were very understanding ♥️ also there were some decorative dried flowers in the ceiling just right on top of the table that kept shredding and falling off while were eating 😅it was a little annoying but again overall it was a nice experience.

The food is great, very unique recipes and taste great. However, the waitress' attitude sucks. We finished a bottle of drinking water, asked for more three times, and each time she replied "yeah", then went on to doing her own thing cleaning up other tables, completely ignoring our request. At the end I asked her for the bill and also some more drinking water, and she replied "OK", then came back with the paying terminal only, still no drinking water, and went away to do her thing. I will not come back for this type of service no matter how good the food is. And then I reviewed the e-receipt after I went back to the hotel and found out they overcharged us.

There was a minor issue with food coming out to us- it was solved immediately and comped off our bill. The food we got was some of the best Middle Eastern food we’ve ever had- the falafel was incredible, as was the cod loin. The dessert of Baklava cheesecake had absolutely no words to describe it other than it’s a must for every time we come back. Leaving the restaurant happy and extremely full.

Maray is a fantastic place for small plates in Manchester. The food is excellent, with a wide variety of plant-based options (with a dedicated menu), which includes the best hummus I’ve ever had. Service is quick, friendly, and personal, without feeling intrusive. The space has a cool, modern atmosphere, great for anywhere from 2 people, all the way up to a large group. The only slight niggle is the lack of acoustic padding on the ceiling, so it can be quite difficult to hear the person across the table from you when it gets busy! I highly recommend the Disco Cauliflower, Roasted Broccoli, and the Falafel with Hummus. All are great plant-based dishes. Will definitely return next time I’m up north!

Fantastic experience. Pretty much totally gluten free and allergen-friendly. VERY tasty small plates, our fave was the braised carrots. Gluten free fried chicken was a treat for the mrs. Lovely wines, local craft beers. Totally hit the spot. It was busy, great atmosphere, very friendly staff and not terribly expensive. Style was like Ottolenghi on steroids. Only wish there was one nearer to home in Henley on Thames!

Excellent experience at Maray - food was delicious, staff friendly and attentive, and overall ambience and value for money was great! Dedicated Vegan menu with plenty of options, highly recommend the Falafel sharing player and disco cauliflower- going back in a week to try a few more options!

Outstanding experience every time that I have visited. Gorgeous food - especially the disco cauliflower and bhajis. Lovely alcoholic and non-alcoholic spritzes and cocktails. Attentive staff and flavoursome cuisine.

Food tasty, service good. However considerably overpriced for everything that was basically small plates. One cod lion the size of a fish finger, with nothing else on the plate except dressing, nearly £10. Eaten better for far less.

The vegan menu has lots of options. We had the falafel sharer which has lots of different tastes and contained the best falafel I have ever had. Service was outstanding and the food was the nicest I have had in a long time. Highly recommended.

Exceptional service and the food is out of this world. The portions are surprisingly big and perfect for sharing. We struggled to finish six small plates and one flatbread between two. The falafel, the cauliflower bhajis, braised carrots, and roasted broccoli were seriously delicious. The sea bass was cooked to perfection. Everything was perfectly seasoned and felt authentic. The dishes come at different times which actually makes for a wonderful and surprising dining experience. The serving staff were so friendly and attentive, and everything just flowed. We shared the chocolate and coffee ganache for dessert - a huge portion that we couldn’t finish between two. Almost all of the menu is suitable for coeliacs, and they appear to accommodate most allergies and dietary preferences.

Visiting Manchester with my partner, and we found this place recommended on a list of places to eat in Manchester online. We emailed ahead (on the day of) as I have many allergies, and needed to know if they could cater for me. I had some emails back and forth, and a phone call, with the manager (Amy), who was very helpful and spoke to the chefs to sort out a list of dishes I could eat! I was very grateful that theh were able to sort this out in the space of an afternoon before we came in! When we arrived, our server told us they were coeliac, and so understood my stress and anxiety around going out for food and they were very thoughtful and kind when taking my order (and when I had multiple follow up questions to double check things). The bar were also very attentive and checked every ingredieng of both our cocktails meticulously to make sure I was safe. The food was incredible, I don’t get to go out for meals very often and this was such a treat for me. We had the flatbread and the hot dips and pickles (the dips are Hot but delicious), sweet potato and carrots (both of which the kitchen modified slightly to ensure they were safe for me!), lamb kofta, and my partner had the disco cauliflower, which I couldn’t try unfortunately but he said was fantastic! Our favourite dish was the carrots:) Every aspect of this place was fantastic, I can’t thank the kitchen, bar, and our servers enough. Will definitely be back if we visit Manchester again. (ps. apologies, we couldn’t wait to tuck in to the food so I think the carrot pictured has already been partially eaten haha)

We had the best experience here for my birthday dinner, I didn't catch the name of our server but he was wonderfully friendly and attentive with great recommendations for us. I'm vegan and my partner has a serious nut allergy and they were so helpful at highlighting which dishes we could have. Felt very safe in their hands, highly recommended!
