Red Chilli in Manchester

This is really the most cost-effective Chinese food I have eaten in Manchester. The boss and staff are very friendly, and they also have their specialty yogurt wine. I have to order a glass every time I come here. The boss mixes the wine himself.

Unfortunately, I didn’t really enjoy the meal I had here with my family, as most of the dishes were too spicy for my taste. The food also didn’t taste very authentic. For example, we ordered 回鍋肉, but the meat looked and tasted more like bacon. The color of the 酸辣湯 we ordered didn’t look quite right, but it tasted normal. Overall, the meal was also a bit pricey. However, the staff were very nice and welcoming.

Best chinese food in Manchester. My favorite is mapo tofu with rice. The spicy and spiciness is so good for the cuisine.

Great service and delicious food!

After visiting the Manchester Museum, I saw a Chinese restaurant as soon as I walked out the door, so I went to try it. As soon as I sat down, I noticed that the atmosphere was very good (noisy). The chicken is juicy and juicy, but the chicken is too thin. The sweet and sour pork is nothing special, except for the addition of water chestnuts and green beans. The golden shrimp tastes good, but the texture of the shrimp is like glass shrimp, only crispy and without the shrimp taste. The most special one is the pineapple fried rice. I saw in the picture that there was a pineapple filling some fried rice, but when it came on stage, the pineapple disappeared. Note that there is a 10% discount compared to cash.

very good, but sometimes the delivery is better than the food in the restaurant

Great food with taste, great service with a smile.

Food was reasonably good. However not amazing. Prices were reasonable as well. Overall, we did enjoy .

This is a review of a Chinese restaurant called Red Chilli in Manchester. I think the food here is quite delicious. First of all, the prices are reasonable, and the portions are large. The interior decor has a strong Chinese cultural vibe, making it feel like being back home. The taste is also pretty good, and I really enjoyed it. It’s been a long time since I had black fungus, to be honest. After just coming back from Iceland where there wasn’t much food, a few of us came here and ate a lot, and I think it was really good.

The taste, service and environment are definitely the best we have ever had in Manchester, and the price is reasonable, so we ate there twice in a week. However, one thing that needs to be mentioned is that there is an obvious difference in the portions of the fried sausages in the two times. The first time (picture 1) had more lotus root slices and potato chips, but the second time did not.

1) Husband and wife’s lung slices The spicy flavor of this classic Sichuan dish is addictive, with the rich texture of beef slices and tripe, and the slight numbness of Sichuan peppercorns. Truly an unforgettable appetizer. 2) Boiled seabass fillet The boiled seabass fillets are tender and smooth, the spicy soup base is rich but not overly flavorful, and the sweetness and spiciness of the fish are perfectly combined to make you take one bite after another. 3) Roast leg of lamb The roasted lamb leg is crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, and has just the right flavor with the spices, without a hint of mutton, making it irresistible. 4) Golden shrimp The golden shrimp is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The rich flavor of the salted egg yolk and the sweetness of the shrimp meat form a perfect match. Every bite is a satisfying enjoyment. 5) Fermented bean curd and vegetables The fermented fermented vegetables are rich in flavor and the fragrant fermented bean curd complements the crispy fermented vegetables. However, it might be better to reduce the salt slightly to allow the natural flavor of fermented bean curd to stand out more. 6) Peking duck The skin of Peking duck is crispy, the duck meat is tender and juicy, and it has a unique flavor when paired with sweet noodle sauce and shredded green onions. Perhaps the duck skin could be thinner to make it taste more refreshing. 7) Roast Pork Ribs The meat of the roasted pork ribs is tender and slightly charred on the outside, and the sauce just enhances the overall taste. It would be more perfect if the meat was a little more tender. 8) Boiled beef The spiciness of the boiled beef and the tenderness of the beef are well balanced, and the soup is rich but not greasy. If you can add some more vegetables, the whole dish will be richer.

great food for lunch for dinner, my favourite is the mapo tofu on the lunch time deal. the staff are friendly, one time the man gave me a free croissant hard to find parking as its on a no car zone main road in the daytime

Great food My friends and I had a great time!

Highly recommend grilled fish! ! !

Really tasty authentic Chinese Szechuan cuisine. Highly enjoyable

The food and service was fantastic, there was a huge array of dishes to pick from aswell as being very authentic. All in all a very enjoyable meal

It was average, chips tasty but soggy and the duck was fine but lacked taste. That said, the portion sizes are great

Excellent food with lovely atmosphere. Everything was on point, loved my experience.

Portions are huge, the service is very good and the food is delicious!!!!

WOW absolute one of my favourite Chinese restaurants everytime I go for gig in Manchester academy I have stop for a meal. Food is really authentic and delicious also good prices, very nice decor and good professional service. I'll definitely will be back to try all of the meals. Keep up good work. I would recommend for anyone who like proper Chinese food not westernised sweet dishes.

It was a really nice place to stumble upon when my tummy was making the rumbles . Great place to eat before a gig at the academy but beware of the farts after 🤣. Food was plenty and tasty . The staff were attentive but looked knackered . All in all. Great meal , service . As Arnie would say "I'll be back " 😘

Very good. You can sing and eat at the same time. The spicy chicken is delicious. Highly recommended.

The red pepper dishes are highly recommended! ! And it’s not expensive per person. You can also sing and eat at the same time. I personally like Chaokao mutton.

The experience was particularly good! ! ! Managers like Tony Leung are also super nice! Come again next time🫶🫶🫶

The service attitude is particularly good!

Best Asian food I've ever tried!!! The food is absolutely delicious, the place has a nice atmosphere and the staff is very friendly. Red Chili has become my go-to restaurant!

A really good Chinese restaurant. I'm no expert, but in my opinion the restaurant offers an authentic experience of traditional Chinese dining in the UK. The menu has two sections, distinguishing Chinese dishes from Anglo-Chinese ones; furthermore, the clientele is made up of 90% Chinese. I was very satisfied with the portions, which were more than generous.

The staff were completely unprofessional with the way they handled our order. They gave us the wrong food and had the audacity to add the wrong order to our bill. The food was too salty and greasy it lacked taste. Avoid this place at all costs.

very good very delicious food the best food I've ever eaten

Favorite Chinese food in Manchester City

Very delicious. I recommend everyone to try it. The service attitude is also very good.

The fried corn is delicious, I like to eat it

Qingti Oolong is particularly delicious

I really love the smell of home! !

It's very, very delicious. The Peking duck is very delicious. The other dishes are also excellent. The environment is comfortable, the price is reasonable, and the service is very attentive. I will come again!

delicious! University of Manchester Canteen🥰

We picked this Chinese pure and simply because it was across the road from Manchester Academy where we were to watch a gig, I briefly looked at Restaurants close by and this popped up. In that way we kinda got lucky, and the only disappointment was having to rush to leave the restaurant. My wife liked it that much she reorded a dish a couple of days later for takeaway.

It’s delicious. I’ve been here many times.

The food is okay, but the service attitude is very poor. From time to time, I want to add service charges.

A cost-effective Chinese restaurant, the food is unique and delicious, and the staff are very enthusiastic. A must-go when going to the University of Manchester! Recommended dishes: Large Plate of Chicken; Prosperity of hair and blood; Pepper Chicken; Husband and wife's lung slices; Chicken casserole; Shredded lamb chops! Overall, it’s pretty good!

Reasonable prices, food is unbelievable beyond imagination. Top tier authentic Chinese food in Manchester, suitable for everyone. The staff were very accommodating and friendly with smiles everywhere. Recommend the mapo tofu, 1010 dish😎

very delicious Chinese food here！

The taste is pretty good and the overall service is pretty good too.

Hot and sour noodles are delicious!

lovely restaurant, owner/boss was lovely and accommodating too would come again :)

Very delicious, come here often

Amazing authentic Chinese food! Staff are very friendly too and great service ㅤᵕ̈

Very good, I haven’t eaten it in a while, but it’s still delicious

Very happy and the food is delicious!

If you are looking for a testy yammy spicy Chinese food that you will remember for the rest of your life look no further than Red chilli in food Road Greater Manchester. An amazing staff a great manager that will welcome you with a captivating experience and smile

How have I been walking past this place for three years without going in? 🤦‍♂️

The food in the restaurant is very delicious and the attitude of the staff is very good

It’s about 10 pounds per person. It’s great. I’ll come back next time.

It’s so awesome, so delicious. If I don’t eat for a day, my whole body will itch. After eating it, I feel like a saint.

Very nice service and authentic Chinese food

Amazing food, friendly staff at great value 👍👍👍👍 Best Peking duck in Manchester😊 highly recommend Excellent service from Sam!

Me and two others went for some food. There was a huge language barrier between the servers and ourselves, and they were visibly annoyed by this. It almost felt like we were an inconvenience. Asian people were preferised and served first even after coming 15-20 minutes after us. Our orders all came in at different times and they forgot mine, I ordered the beef ramen but they brought me a prawn noodle dish and I advised I never asked for this to be met with an eye roll and a huge sigh. Others had already finished their meals when I finally got mine. Food was average, and the service was terrible.

My experience at Red Chilli restaurant in Manchester merits a commendable 4-star rating. Beyond merely satisfying hunger, the establishment delivers an enriching dining affair. One aspect that notably elevates its charm is the affordability without compromising quality—a rarity in today's culinary landscape. The accessibility of the menu reflects a thoughtful balance, offering a diverse selection catering to various palates without alienating any demographic. What truly sets Red Chilli apart, however, is the warmth exuded by its staff. Their genuine hospitality transcends the transactional nature of service, creating an atmosphere where patrons feel valued and welcomed. It's the kind of hospitality that transforms a meal into a memorable experience, leaving a lasting impression on diners. Moreover, the spacious layout of the restaurant is a refreshing departure from the cramped confines often associated with dining establishments. The ample room allows for comfortable dining, facilitating unhurried conversations and enhancing the overall enjoyment of the dining experience. In essence, Red Chilli embodies the essence of a quintessential dining destination—a place where affordability, hospitality, and ambiance converge harmoniously to create an experience that transcends mere sustenance.

The service is very friendly and the price is very affordable. I will come again next time. You need to book a week in advance during holidays.

The New Year's Eve dinner costs 188 pounds for nine people, 20 pounds per person. It's really a good deal if you come with a large number of people. If you want to eat roast duck, be sure to call in advance to make a reservation. The service is very good. There are dishes from all over the world, and they are well cooked and served. Come soon, I’ll come back next time for dinner.

The roast duck is really nice and the cocktailis super , food was come up fast and tasty also the staff are friendly

Excellent service with yummy food

Best Chinese restaurant on campus hands down!

This Chinese restaurant exceeded my expectations! The food and drinks were delicious, and the service was exceptional. A perfect combination of tasty flavors and attentive staff. A definite go-to for a satisfying dining experience.

I went to this Chinese restaurant near university on the other day and it was awesome! The staff are very nice and give me some great recommendations for the food and drinks. The food was amazing, especially the roasted duck. Everything was very tasty. I had a great time and I will definitely come back again

菜品新鲜，服务热情，上菜速度快，餐厅环境不错 自己特别推荐腊味炒饭，黑椒牛柳和辣子鸡（已经点过好多好多次了）

来这里唱歌的，中文曲库很全！超便宜， 下午一个人唱三个小时才十五磅，一秒回国！也没有什么隐形消费！还会再来！

No.8 Red chill is my favorite Chinese restaurant! It boasts a distinctly Chinese decor and provides excellent service, creating an authentic and enjoyable dining experience. My favorite food:Beijing Roast Duck 👨‍🍳boneless and with crispy skin, offers a delightful combination of tender, juicy meat. Served with thin strips of green onions, cucumber, and a sweet hoisin sauce, ❤️❤️❤️it's my absolute favorite when wrapped in thin pancakes. ！！！and u can choose Chinese broth(free)which will come with pecking duck!

I go to red chili every week!!! It is near UOM and MMU！ It offers a lunch set at £10 per person with diverse and delicious choices. My classmates and I love it for the variety. Besides, the ambiance and service are excellent. A must-try is their fantastic fruit tea and coffee – incredibly tasty! Try the coffee and home drink please!please!

Service is quick and fast. Most of the staffs are friendly too. For some reason, I don’t feel the seasoning here is well authentic and balance enough, compare to the other Red Chili at Manchester China Town. Rice is also too dry and not really calling the appetite as an Asian. Atmosphere was okay, just the table is not well organize, or maybe too dark. But it didn’t bother much.

best Chinese restaurant in uk. 菜量蛮大，餐厅环境好好，餐厅servers非常nice，忙碌的时候也很有耐心😭 推荐！

The fried cumin Lamb Ribs is a must have. The staff was very nice and helpful when he saw me panicking what to order because is lot of food look so good and don’t know what to order, he ask me the what flavour and meat I like then he recommended me this dish. The lamb with seasoning spicy and herbs is foods 10out of10

We had fantastic food here. Great vegetarian options so many dishes there’s something for everyone.

非常好吃的一家中餐厅！可以说是曼城必吃中餐之一！位置很好认，就在曼大旁边，价格划算味道正宗！下次还来！

第一次在国外吃到味道这么正宗的大盘鸡和麻辣烤鱼😋，上菜很快，服务很到位，另外结算的时候可以用vx真的超方便，下次还会跟朋友一起来！！

圣诞聚餐过的很开心！！氛围超级好，服务周到，下次还来！ 店里的装饰好可爱呀😃

从上学到工作吃了很多年了，菜一如既往的好吃！服务满分！强推海盐冰茉莉！必点！

店里兼职的中国学生都很好 但是矮个子老阿姨就很会看人下菜 区别对待 对中国人态度不好 脸很臭 对外国人就热情

An excellent restaurant with delicious food

Awful restaurant, wished I hadn't gone. Although the visual appeal of the restaurant is great, the service was terrible, rude staff, especially our waitress. Food came out after asking several times and 45 minutes after we ordered, and one of our mains was missing. The restaurant wasn't busy and there were plenty of staff stood around not doing much. Food wasn't terrible, but nothing amazing you couldn't get for half the price from your local Chinese takeaway

The food is ok nothing special. The service is really poor. We waited 45 minutes for our food to come out. Others that came after us had starters and mains and we were still waiting. Plenty of other decent places near by.

Went here for a work Christmas and really enjoyed it. The food is really tasty and the service is excellent.

Slow service. Poor service. Food okay

Superb food and huge portions, we keep going back again

I had this fish soup and it was too good,very balanced taste

Seafood was cooked amazingly, and everyone else in the group loved their dishes!

Food is great at reasonable price. Parking in the next building - Hospital parking.

Quite Saturday afternoon lunch time. Food served quickly. Not much to fault. But not much to brag about either. Extensive menu

This is the first time I can think of that a restaurant has refused to serve me because of allergies - it's 'too complicated' apparently. Very unusual when most restaurants have such good allergen policies these days.

Went for lunch with a friend. The place was clearly popular with Chinese people. We had the cheap lunch deal, one aubergine and pork dish and one spicy mutton dish. Both were excellent, just the right quantity for lunch and tasty. As it was busy the service was slightly slow, but not problematically so.

Very delicious food! And fast service

椒麻鸡特别好吃，新疆大盘鸡我的最爱，最重要的是饮料很多选择，推荐牛油果奶昔和山楂奶昔

猜猜看 这个是玉米白饭 还是炒蛋饭 。 米饭是一坨一坨的 完全没有炒米的感觉

这是我吃过最好 最正宗的四川味道 特别是那个麻辣牛腩香锅 配菜有多 和辣子鸡味道好极了 服务也非常好 经理和服务员招呼很周到 我会再去 .

Unfortunately, the food gave me a bad stomach about 40 minutes after eating it. I had pork and cabbage dumplings and onion pancake. I will take notice of food hygiene ratings in the future; it’s currently 2/5. Eek!

Very Authentic Chinese Food with their special new Chinese style tea drinks. If you like spicy food, the spicy roast duck is very recommend. The staff are also friendly.

Everytime i go to these sorts of restaurant i get ripped off in some way. Only interested in money money money

In geen tijden zo lekker gegeten, echt top! Binnen hangt een gezellige sfeer met goede bediening, hartelijk dank!
