Red Restaurant in Manchester

Made to feel very welcome, and even googled our route to the Opera House. We had vegetarian noodle and chicken chow mein noodle dishes. The veg. dish was particularly good. As Jay Rayner would say “:what’s not to like”

FANTASTIC AUTHENTIC CHINESE FOOD, this wonderful restaurant is tricky to find but once you’ve gone down the stairs the staff are superb. They have an English and more traditional Chinese menu. All the food is cooked to order. Best Chinese we’ve ever had. Family run business. You MUST try this hidden gem. We will definitely be back.

Excellence place for gathering very spacious compare to other Chinese restaurant. Good food and we go for hotpot buffet. They specialised in Sce Chuan delicacy and Cantonese dishes for selection. Service is good too.

The entrance is easy to miss but once down the stairs, a delightful experience awaits! A clean, homely setting with great, authentic Chinese food. The service is exceptional with friendly advice on the menu readily available. I will definitely return.

This place is a hidden gem, we were trying to find a nice Asian restaurant but it was super busy where, then walked past here and thought we would give it a go! Immediately welcomed by lovely staff, we told them we were in a hurry, they said they would manage this. Food came out and it was gorgeous! Piping hot, super tasty. The place was calm and staff are attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant for good Chinese and Japanese food!

My sister and I visited for a pre show meal. I’d looked at reviews for various Chinese restaurants and this one had the most consistently positive reviews. We were not disappointed. The friendliness of the owner was really lovely. We had spring rolls, sweet and sour pork, tofu, soft noodles. It was all delicious. We finished every bite despite being full. This will be our preferred Chinese restaurant in Manchester going forward.

Excellent food, reasonable price, very friendly staff and relaxing atmosphere. Lots of Asian customers, which is always a good sign for an Asian restaurant.

After reading some reviews on this site, I am astounded how they have eaten at the same place as us. We have eaten here 5 or 6 times and each time the food and atmosphere has been second to none. Alishea the owner has always been welcoming, and friendly. If you do decide to try Red Restaurant just walk in and see how many local people are in there. I am sure they would not keep going back,( like ourselves) If the food was not excellent. Keep up the great work you are doing. You deserve ever credit x

Decided on this place after reading very good reviews. What a mistake! We chose chicken fried rice to take out. First of all, the price had gone up from last years price of £8.80 (menu on page photos)to £12.80 which was a shock but, knowing how good it is from our local Chinese (we were on holiday), we let it go as we thought it would be the same. When we opened the tubs we were faced with soggy, sticky, clumpy, bland boiled rice with the tiniest cubes of tasteless chicken I’ve ever seen. Tastes like a chicken stock cube has been mixed in. We left most of it. Total waste of money. Just hoping that we can keep down the bit we’ve eaten!! Obviously would not recommend.

Amazing. This is the perfect example of never judge a book by its cover. The restaurant from the outside is fairly non descriptive, however the food and service is impeccable. Hands down the best Chinese food I have EVER had. The service was second to none, and the egg fried rice was just delicious. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone and we will definitely come again. We had a family member with us who has an allergy, they couldn’t have been more accommodating for them. Honestly brilliant.
