Sweet Mandarin

We were recommended the restaurant by a hotel we were staying in. We tried the summer special - pan fried sea bass and it was cooked to perfection. The service was welcoming and friendly. We will definatley be back. Brilliant meal - thank you.

I came up to visit my daughter who is studying at Manchester University and she recommended we should try Sweet Mandarin. The area - Northern Quarter had an immediate buzz about it and the restaurant was just a beautiful look and feel. We ordered various starters and mains and i can honestly say that is the best tasting food i've ever tasted. Service was attentive and the atmosphere really buzzing. I especially loved the hot plate beef - just delicious. Thank you I will be back for more when i'm next up in Manchester.

We were recommended Sweet Mandarin by our hotel and i was absolutely delighted with the whole experience. We started off with a round of exotic cocktails - and each had a main each. The music and atmosphere was brilliant and really put us in the mood onwards to the club. The food was amazing also. Great service even though they were busy. Thanks for a brilliant night!

I remember reading a review about the book Sweet Mandarin and finally managed to get chance to go in for a spot of lunch. I tried the salt and pepper ribs and they were just the best i've tasted. Although i don't work nearby I will be returning with my friends in the evenings. It's definately worth recommending and reading the book of the amazing women/ family. Thank you

Went to visit Sweet Mandarin with my friend as i had been recommended to go visit by my work colleagues. I love the look and ambience of the restuarant. It's so different from any other chinese restaurant in Chinatown. Modern, fresh and trendy. We ordered the banquet A for 2 people and there was plenty of food to go round. I especially like the Lily Kwok's Chicken Curry it's so delicious. We tried 2 of their special cocktails High Street and Lotus both were excellent. I've booked on to their food and wine tasting event too and can't wait to sample more of their delicious cuisine and drinks!

I live in the Northern Quarter and have walked past this restaurant many times. We decided to go in and try our local Chinese. We were really pleased with the food and service. Excellent food, comprehensive wine list, nice restaurant - very good find on the doorstep. Will be going back to eat in and get takeouts.

We went to Sweet Mandarin for the dim sum deal and it was great. The food was great and the ambiance was wonderful. Great service. Lots of choice for a tenner.

We went to Sweet Mandarin on Saturday evening with a sense of anticipation. Our hopes were not fulfilled. Our two dishes were too similar and the waitress could have told us. The bill was a bit steep for the quality of the food. It seemed a bit `same as` and we will have second thoughts about returning for the Dim Sum deal.

I remember reading about Sweet Mandarin in the paper a while back and had been meaning to try this restaurant. It has a fantastic story behind it. We went with my parents who are from Middleton who remembers the girl's grandmother Lil. The food and service was brilliant. Also i tried one of the cocktails which were wonderful - you have to try the Lotus cocktail. I've booked in for my birthday party next month. Well done girls!

Walked past the restaurant and decided to try it out with my girlfriend. We tried the specials Lily Kwok's chicken Curry and Mabel's Vegetarian Claypot. Both were excellent choices. The atmosphere and service was really good. I'll be coming back to work my way through the rest of the menu. Also they do takeaway and delivery. Can't wait to use this as my local chinese.
