As a newly diagnosed celiac, I thought the days of me being able to enjoy a Chinese were over. The food here is incredible and they couldn’t have been more accommodating for gluten free. An entire separate menu dedicated to it. I had the sweet and sour chicken and egg fried rice and it was AMAZING! The service too is phenomenal. When the waiter presented me with my dish, he said with pride ‘it’s all gluten free my friend.’ I’m still buzzing. What a place. Can’t thank them enough.

I was looking forward to finding a gluten-free Chinese restaurant with my partner and came across sweet mandarin. However, I can say my experience was memorable, only for reasons which are disappointing. We ordered some spring rolls that were okay. Unfortunately, I don’t know what happened to the main. The chicken was tasteless and had clearly been reheated, an overly boiled taste? The noodles on the chicken chow mein had a thick layer of slime; and the beef noodle was far too salty to finish. (Please see attached) Personally, I’m not someone who would raise complaints in person and would hate to cause a scene. Otherwise, I would have refused the bill. Please find this review as critical feedback to improve and not as a form of attack.

Came here for a family meal and we all had such a lovely time, and had some very very delicious food. As a gluten free girlie I struggle to find places for me and my picky-eater family members to enjoy. But this ticked everyone’s boxes! The food was flavoured to perfection, leaving a long-lasting flavour on your tongue to make you want to go back for more! I also got the Sheep zodiac cocktail and it was delicious. Me and my family would all recommend this place and would love to come back. The service was perfect, staff were all friendly, there was a tiny mishap with one of my orders but that was swiftly resolved with no trouble at all! We went on a sunday so it was fairly quiet but the atmosphere was still wonderful. Make sure you visit Sweet Mandarin for some gorgeous, gluten free Chinese food!

So lovely to find a genuine original Chinese restaurant - staff were so attentive and friendly and the food was so good. The portions were so big, I could only eat half of mine. Loved the idea of the cocktails named after the Chinese years too and well worth the money. It was our freinds anniversary that day and they have them a hand written card with a very special message on it and a gift of a picture frame to put a photo of that night in. Well done to the whole team at Sweet Mandarin 10/10 from us all.

Fabulous food, nicely decorated, calm atmosphere. Will return. Staff are nice although some of the servers seem quite young and clueless sometimes no offence of course just need more experience and training… other than that it’s great!

Absolutly beautiful restaurant, the staff were so welcoming and friendly, they even bought us a gift and wrote us a card when we said it was our engagement celebration, which was so beautiful and kind!

First time here and really enjoyed the food Small menu but that really works as less choice means you pick better I think Nice staff not to pushy Very busy but that’s always a good sign I’ve been lucky to eat Chinese food in some great restaurants including opium den in Oxford and Hakkasan in Mayfair and quality of food here is comparable to them

A huge plus for being coeliac friendly and having great staff, but the food really is terrible. Bland fried rice, lukewarm shredded duck and £8 for a bowl of cold crispy kale covered in sugar and salt doesn't feel like a good experience.

Arrived at 20:00 on a Friday to be told ‘Take-Away’ only! Been many times before with no issue, but will avoid in future. Went to Hard Rock Cafe (Gluten Free) who were more than welcoming.

Very friendly service and very clean bathrooms. The interior and the music are not Chinese in any way (pop songs covered by a saxophone player). The dishes are full of sauces that are over-thickened and over-sweetened, whilst vegetables are merely a decoration. The dishes tasted exactly the same as at the cheap take-away places I used to dine at as a college student in the States. This is a pity, because this very restaurant is mentioned in the film footage on display at the Lee Kai Hung Chinese Culture Gallery (at the Manchester Museum), as a restaurant where dishes are made in accordance with cherished family recipes handed down from generation to generation...

We decided to go to Sweet Mandarin for mine and my friends birthday because of their extensive gluten free menu. I am coeliac and often feel very anxious eating out, but the staff were so reassuring, kind and accommodating. The food was also absolutely delicious and the portions were huge. They also gave me and my friend a birthday card and a box of chocolates which was just so lovely. The next time I'm in Manchester i'll be heading straight to Sweet Mandarin :)

I honestly love everything about this place. The food is always to a high standard. A fantastic meal yet again. Portions were huge and we had to take some away with us. The gluten free options are vast and the service is excellent. I had informed them when I booked that it was a special occasion and they made the visit extra special which shows a huge personal touch. We will absolutely be back next time we are back in Manchester! Thanks again.

Nothing special. Based on their website and their award from Gordon Ramsay I was expecting something fabulous but it was very average. Garnish on the starter was hard white cabbage and my chicken satay tasted not like a curry. Barely and peanut flavour and not rocky and satisfying. The place needs a refit as the decor was basic and it was cold. The tables felt cheap and the laminate was peeling off the menus. Staff were not unpleasant but looked like they didn't want to be there and the whole experience was lacklustre but not bad. I won't rush back. A few tweaks to the food, some training for their staff and a bit of work on the ambience and this place could be really nice with it's history but it was disappointing.

Went to this restaurant after seeing it mentioned in a gluten free online group. The website is so reassuring listing the precautions they have made to limit cross contamination. The food was lovely. My friend was able to eat gluten but everything we ate was gluten free and delicious. Decent sized portions too. It isn't the most flash of restaurants but if you want nice gluten free Chinese food I would definitely recommend. Ps wasn't cold, didnt need to wear my coat- this is mentioned in some reviews but not the case when I was there and stormy and cold outside.

A Chinese restaurant with a full gluten free menu!!! What an incredible find for our short trip to Manchester. To have such a wide choice of gluten free options at a Chinese restaurant was just incredible and so we over ordered, wanting to try as much as possible. We were not disappointed when the food came, incredible crispy salt and pepper wings, sweet and sour chicken, crispy shredded beef and much more. Tasted exactly like gluten containing Chinese. Will definitely be visiting here again if back in Manchester.

We came here today for our anniversary meal and it was so lovely and such a nice experience. The food was tasty and delicious, the staff was attentive and nice. Towards the end of our meal a waiter came over and asked if we were celebrating anything special and when we told them it was our anniversary they asked for our names and 3 minutes later they brought out lovely and kind card with a little gift. It was honestly so nice and made our day even more special. The place is decorated beautifully and we will definitely come again!

Was so excited to visit here having heard so much about how great it is. But unfortunately it didn’t live up to the hype I’ve seen..we pre booked for 5pm arrived at 4:50 and the place was closed ..so wandered around for 10 mins then went back..it wasn’t like we expected at all not very welcoming and the place was freezing cold ..people sat with coats on! It reminded me of a canteen rather than a restaurant Service was good but food was no better than I can get from my local takeaway. No warmers were used under the food like in other Chinese I’ve been to in the past so we didn’t finish our mains as they went cold before we could eat them. The gluten free options were good (I had no reaction) we had the set meal..could have done without the salt and pepper chips..they don’t really say Chinese restaurant to me. All in all..not somewhere we will be going again. Especially when there are so many other gf places nearby.

Ristorante che si trova in zona centrale della città, da me apprezzato perchè offre un intero menù senza glutine. Essendo la prima volta che provo un cinese, non ho metro di paragone, cmq., quanto da me assaggiato era buono e sfizioso e soprattutto mangiato senza pensieri. Prezzi onesti e servizio cortese.

Lovely food, we had the sharing platter which was nice and big portions size. We couldn't book so turned up at 8 and was told we could come in but they close at 9pm which we agreed to but did feel a bit rushed and felt was unusual to close at that time. It was our anniversary and they gave us a card and some lovely chopsticks which was a nice touch.

They have a separate vegan menu. They also have a separate gluten free menu with a wide range of options including vegan, gf spring rolls - which are delicious (so much so my non gf boyfriend took the last one). As a vegan coeliac these menus are very helpful, as are the staff. I went this week for the first time in a while. The staff were lovely, friendly and accomodating with my vegan/gluten free requets and the food was delicious! I always love the salt and pepper tofu (previously my family, who are not vegan, said that this was the best tofu they had ever tasted). This time I had the spring rolls, salt & pepper tofu, jungle curry and salt & pepper chips - all really flavourful and tasty. Non vegan/gf friends who I went with were very happy with their dishes as well. The staff knew that it was my birthday and they gave me a very thoughtful present, which was lovely. I'll have to make sure I don't leave it as long before I go again!

Great option for gluten free Chinese food. I’ve never had the option for a full Chinese meal of any substance.

Definitely recommend.

Let me start, £14 for an omelette are you having a laugh? We asked for a plain foo young but because it wasn’t on the menu we were charged the same price if we had ordered chicken, disgraceful and to top it off I’ve never been so embarrassed in my life when we had to pay the bill & divide it by 3 trying to work out the cost of how much we each owed before the actual meal, a stressful experience that lacked enthusiasm from the staff members & the food in itself was bland, we left in a hurry & won’t be returning, absolute rip off for food that was overly expensive & lacked any flavour.

This is a lovely restaurant. The servers are really lovely and check in attentively. The gluten free menu is HUGE too. The only downside to the experience was that some of the dishes were too sweet (I suppose the clue was in the name!) and fairly expensive but this was partly due to my choices. Portion sizes very generous and less sweet dishes were delicious. Background music a good noise level too which seems to be a rarity nowadays. Beware that you will need to pay when ordering due to what appears to be a history of previous declined credit cards and people skirting off without paying. Will be back! Please start delivery!!!!

This restaurant is very expensive considering the decor, service, quality of food and young staff exploitation. Scum bags.

My wife is coeliac and we always struggle to find restaurants that are this switched on around food intolerance. The restaurant was situated in the Northern Quarter and was stylish in a non-fussy way. They ask that you preorder food which meant the food was excellent and the service fast . The staff were good, both efficient and friendly. I heartily recommend this restaurant to all.

The spicy crayfish is neither spicy nor spicy. The crayfish is dry and oily, as if it was overnight. There are no side dishes at all. It is not worthy of the 38 pounds. Bad review.

I use this chippy two or three times a week. The food is amazing, chips are fresh and tasty, and the staff are super friendly. If you have a request, like I love onions on my gravy, they are more than

Don’t trust their opening times I suggest you agree on when it will start. It’s really annoying not being able to eat when you come here. Please change the business hours^^ Now I don’t want to come he
