Love this place, the staff and the food are excellent. Everything I come to Manchester I come here…read more Keep it up! The aromatic chicken is a good cheap take on crispy duck. Number 45; the squid, king prawn and scallops in chili sauce is lush.

Aside from the prices there isn't much else to talk about. The menu is pretty bog standard with most mains costing south of £8 The quality of the food is more than acceptible and not too greasy. They're on my speed dial for whenever I'm at a drinking hole in these neck of woods.

Didsbury Noodles is a restaurant come takeout based on Lapwing Lane in West Didsbury. Just across…read morethe road from the West Didsbury tram stop and close to the major bus routes it's in the perect location to be able to grab something on your way home from work - which is exactly what I did tonight. I opted for Didsbury Noodles because I had a craving for the traditional Vietnamese noodle soup and I was aware that as well as your standard chinese takeout options, here Vietnamese dishes are also available. There are a few tables in the front of the restuarant but as far as I've seen in the past most people are sitting waiting for their food rather than actually eating in. The front of the restaurant is open with large glass windows so if you were to eat in you can enjoy the sites of Didsbury and people watch. I decided on the chicken pho and meat dumplings. The staff cleverly wrapped the chicken, noodles and beansprouts separately to the chicken stock and herb broth, which meant that when I got home I could mix it myself into the portion size I wanted and also things weren't soggy by the time I was ready to eat it. The pho was very flavoursome and had a little kick of chilli through it. The noodles were soft and the beansprouts were crispy giving the dish texture. The dumplings were filled with mixed meat and some vegetables, they were soft on the inside with a good crisp on the outside. A little greasy but certainly delicious. I will definitely be returning to Didsbury Noodles in future and I would recommend it to anyone in the local area.

Stays at one star and it's really disappointing as these folks know how to do very much better…read morebecause we had much better here. It's hard to imagine how they could do much worse. I ordered a sweet & sour pork Cantonese style and it was rubbish. The pork had already been cooked to within an inch of its life before it was battered and deep fried so it was an awful eat. Likewise I had a crispy seaweed which wasn't crispy and actually unpleasant. My wife opted for chilli chicken, which was almost as bad as my food. What they do is a deep fried batter to chicken ratio with chicken very much in the minority and it's not chicken breast either. So I think that's it for this place as we've had a few lousy meals when we didn't update this review - if your focus is on producing food as cheaply as you possibly can with no expense spent you'll run out of customers.

Our go to Chinese take away - good food & they deliver…read more In Sale the take away options, like the sit in restaurant options, are few if you want something decent and edible. Even fewer of the decent places deliver and surely this is the point of a take away? If I can be bothered driving somewhere I probably have the energy to cook instead. A take away for me is the cure for a hang over or a necessity after a horrendous and exhausting day. That said onto the review. Yooneek is a standard Chinese take away. The food is good (few times slightly less so but generally reliable and tasty) and they deliver. The menu had a lot of good options and the price is reasonable. We had chicken in black bean sauce, Cantonese chicken with noodles and egg fried rice. They threw in free prawn crackers which is always nice. Everything was tasty as usual and the food arrived in 30 minutes as they said. All you need from a take away.

Tai Wu, taiwu.co.uk, formerly known as Tai Pan is Hong Kong style cuisine found sitting atop a very…read moreaffordable Asian Supermarket. The menu is expansive, covering many dim sum delicacies, lots of roasted duck dishes, including a variation that resembles Peking/Beijing duck, but without the added prep substituting a good roast duck in exchange for an on-demand item, all the seafood favorites (whole steamed fish, lobster, crab) and even some regional favorites never found on overseas menus, like Dinghu Shangsu (which is a mixed vegetable dish comprised of fresh and rare dried veggies like clouds ear, snow fungus, osmanthus, pickled Dictyophora, lotus seeds, silver needle fungus, et.al.) Service is typical efficient Asian, that if you get your order in from the start, everything progresses quickly and arrives expediently. If you attempt the Euro custom of adding this and that as the dining commences, you'll probably get frustrated trying to constantly interrupt the running servers to add just one more dish to your meal. Order up front and be happy. It's also a typical family-style banquet house, so as the crowds fill up, it will become quite loud with conversational chatter. All in all, a wonderful find parket outside of City Centre and nowhere near the Manchester Chinatown proper. Instead, this is where the local workers and families go to have a special lunch or dinner, and that's the ideal for really good Chinese food.

Who knew you had to go all the way up north to get decent dim sum in the UK! I certainly didn't…read more I'm just glad to know there actually is decent Chinese food somewhere on this island kingdom. There are two menus for dim sum. One is a tick box menu in Chinese only, the other is a laminated card that has English and Chinese, but is not as extensive as the Chinese only one. Just an FYI. Most of the standard stuff is in the English menu, but if you don't see it, make sure to ask because they probably do have it just isn't listed. Attentive and very helpful staff. This place is more than decent, it's great. I'd definitely come here more often if I didn't live in the so many hours away.
