19/10/2019: Really nice selection of sushi options. Really happy I went but there are just a good places around Manchester for cheaper

18/10/2019: Umezushi is legend! It is the go to place after watching Jiro dreams of Sushi. Yes, it’s not the final word for sushi in the UK, but if you’re in Manchester and have a withdrawal symptoms after having visited friends in Omotesando, then supermarket counters are not an option and Yo!sushi is out of the question. Be prepared to see fellow diners do a Meg Ryan impression after tasting the Uni Gunkan before uttering ‘I’ll have what she’s having’. Naturally, superior food does not come cheap so if you’re on a budget then go alone. That way you won’t have to share.

19/01/2020: I've just been for Sunday lunch as a present for my birthday. Had some delicious soup to start . Sea bream for the main, with superb cauliflower cheese . Dessert was a very chocolatey torte . Service was extremely polite which I really like . All in all an excellent birthday present . Couldn't fault it .

12/01/2020: Great food wonderful service 200% Thank you see you again soon!!

08/01/2020: Best Sunday lunch in Blackpool highly recommended not to be missed. If your ever in Blackpool you’ve got to go you’ll regret if you don’t

02/01/2020: I stayed here once before and loved it so much a 2nd visit was always the plan. So me and a friend booked for NYE 2 nights cery reasonably priced too. On arrival Daniel greeted us with a welcoming smile, very easy to book in, room was very comfortable everything you need is in there and very quiet. Friend stayed 2nd floor overlooking the front which he said was also quiet. Location couldn't be better tbh, less than 5 min walk from North train station, mchalls is behind funny girls, flying handbag.

19/01/2020: Amazing food and good service very relaxed atmosphere . Thoroughly enjoyed our evening and are still talking about the food weeks afterwards . Thanks for a wonderful Christmas treat.

06/01/2020: Second visit here after our first in October 2019. Good quality food again. This was the last night open, before closing until February so not all dishes were on, but there was a good choice. Colin the owner came out to speak to us and was friendly, along with the waiter. Nice food. Nice place to eat. Would come back.

08/12/2019: Fantastic restaurant. Lazarus , the owner, so friendly and welcoming. Visited twice now although my partner has been numerous times. The food is excellent. The baby Calamari are the best I've ever tasted. Wonderful place and cannot wait to return. Have already booked for 2020.

07/12/2019: We arrived at 6 o’clock for our booking and we were seated by the owner who was amazing. Friendly, funny, welcoming and an superb host. A jug of water was brought to the table straight away. It may be so little to do this but it still it just made it so much nicer than to ask for this. We then ordered drinks which came straight away. We ordered a main order sharing platter for 3 between 4 of us. This came in stages and each time the host brought the food and he explained what everything was and made us chuckle. After the sharing platter we then had a dessert. The food all together was hands down amazing. Every dish was flavoursome. Each brought a different aspect and was handmade no doubt. Authentic Greek. I can honestly say this place has it down to a tee. If you are thinking of going anywhere make it here. It is a small business so you would be supporting this instead of a chain. Your dining experience in terms of quality of service and food will not be beaten if you choose here.

14/01/2020: We arrived 5 minutes before they stopped serving and they still found space for us. Our waiter was lovely and the food was amazing, especially the goats cheese dish!

13/01/2020: Tried their new menu items; the grilled leek and asparagus, the peppers stuffed with cod and the pork loin. WOW. amazing. They don’t seem to rest on their laurels and constantly change small numbers of items on the menu. Still the best tapas in Manchester.

22/01/2020: We have enjoyed The Butcher's for many years, especially the last couple with Katie, John and ALL the staff making you feel they are really pleased to see you. It goes without further explanation that the food and great beers are always excellent.

21/01/2020: We had a lovely meal as usual ! Still had excellent service on New Year’s Eve at 4.30 with party evening due to start! Thank you😀

30/11/2019: Wow! We really enjoyed our visit. Both our starters were fantastic - a goats cheese and grape bruschetta and a cauliflower soufflé. We both went for the nut roast which was equally as good.

25/11/2019: My husband and I discovered this little gem during a short break near Ambleside and popped in on the off chance they would have a table. The staff were friendly, polite and extremely helpful, even offering to take our coats. There was a good choice of food on the menu and we were delighted with our choices, which were beautifully presented and, to be honest, the most delicious vegetarian food we have tasted in a long time. A little pricier than ‘pub grub’ but well worth it. We will definitely return if we are ever in Ambleside again. Thoroughly recommended.

23/01/2020: Sorry I’m late with this review but if you remember i wasn’t feeling very well on Saturday night . Can I just say thank you to you and all the staff for making the night so wonderful the friends i was with really enjoyed it and we all agreed to meet up again for a reunion night at your wonderful restaurant. All my best to you all and thank you again Norman and Mary.

21/01/2020: Last week started with my 75th birthday followed by my youngest grand-daughters 14th so what better than a family meal at the Royal Balti complete with balloons, cards and chocolate birthday cake with firework type 'candle'. We were amazed how busy the restaurant was with other family parties and as always the food and service was first class. We quickly ordered a bottle of white wine, Cobra beers and cokes followed by various curry dishes including my favourite Royal Bolti Special, naan breads and pilau rice. The dishes were all perfectly cooked and well presented to our liking and we finished with brandies and Baileys liqueurs and coffees. At the end of a great evening we paid the very reasonable bill and I was overwhelmed when Keith, the proprietor presented me with a complimentary bottle of wine.

19/01/2020: Stopped for lunch on a Sunday around 1pm. Not been before. Busy but got a table. Decent choice and reasonable prices. Nice feel to the place and service was good. Had a chicken sandwich and Welsh rarebit plus drinks. Would recommend and visit again

04/01/2020: Went to driftwood cafe with my 91 year old mum & my wife. Probably the best flat white coffee any of us has tasted. Had soup & sandwiches, really good & reasonably priced, very filling, which was a shame as we couldn’t sample the scrumptious looking cakes on offer. I would most definitely recommend a visit, we will be going back.

16/01/2020: We came for lunch with our two daughters, one being obsessed with tomatoes and they were only too happy to make her a tomato sandwich. Myself and my husband had the bacon and Cumberland sausage sandwiches, just what we needed after a 6mile walk! Hearty portions and the white chocolate was to die for. We’ve since ordered some as it was so good. Already looking forward to our next visit.

09/01/2020: This is a very friendly cafe, the staff are attentive and the surroundings interesting. The toilets are in the basement, which could be a problem for some, the air fresheners are really good they seem natural and are for sale, along with other sundry items. The lemon drizzle cake was homemade and generous, scones also looked pretty big, the sausage and bacon butty came on a large roll and contained 2 big sausages and 4 rashers of back bacon for a fiver. The food and surroundings with such a small price tag assured another visit in the future.

21/01/2020: Intimate atmosphere- don't go here for the view or to people gaze. Excellent food. We enjoyed the taster menu and accompanying flight of wines. Excellent price by comparison with other restaurants of this stature.

20/01/2020: Back after a 2 year break to sample some delicious food at the Old Stamp House. This time it was for an evening meal and we took the flight of wine with the taster menu. Very well paired wines and good service. Altogether a lovely evening.

18/01/2020: Delicious food beautifully presented, Professional staff with just the right amount of attention helping to create a great ambience. We had the Early Bird to end a busy week and start a relaxing weekend.

16/01/2020: Lovely food, great wine and brilliant customer service again for our third visit. Please keep it up, QSF!

23/01/2020: Myself and my mates went their for delicious meal ever. The staff was helpful and friendly being polite and well mannered. The chips was lovely and homemade better than McDonalds chips in my life. Mushroom on rye bread was tasty and yummy. The food was spot on and tasty in my life as nice and fresh homemade food. I shall be back again.

13/01/2020: Waiting downstairs in the bar for a table when the food is this good is no great hardship! The cauliflower dish is legendary and the wine list is one of my favourites in Liverpool. Skip desert and opt for a Marayhattan.......delicious!

05/01/2020: The staff so friendly from taking booking over the phone to arriving and leaving. Service was excellent nothing to much trouble. The food was delicious and reasonable prices for food and drink. Not from Southport but whenever we come over we visit not been dissapointed yet.

04/01/2020: We came here whilst visiting southport and had a great experience. The staff were really friendly and welcoming and the food was nice. The service was excellent and we will definitely return.
