Doesn't look like from outside but inside is completely different. They have 3 levels with 3 different style restaurants. The food was absolutely amazing and worth every penny. Also the service was some of the best I've experienced in a long time. Would highly recommend

Excellent new restaurant which opened in Manchester at the end of 2017. The restaurant is split into 2 levels - the lower level is the more "traditional" restaurant with noodle and rice dishes. The rice dishes change weekly.
The ground floor level is for (Chinese) hot pot. Also known as steamboat or also "da bin lo". Basically with Chinese hot pot you get a pot with broth in it and you put in different raw ingredients and you cook it yourself. Each ingredient only takes a few minutes to cook each and it all adds to the flavour of the broth.
At One Plus, which is a fairly unique thing (certainly in the UK), is you get your own pot and you control it yourself. This means you like things spicy and someone else doesn't, thats fine since you have your own pot. All the ingredients are on a conveyor belt similar to sushi places like Yo Sushi. You just pick the ingredients, all on different plates to represent the different price and you cook it yourself. So if its something like some spinach, thats £1 but if you get something like scallops, this cost more (£4).
Food tasted great. Friendly staff. Great service.
This was my first stop after my train journey from Glasgow. There were 3 of us and we wanted hotpot! This is hotpot with a difference. Unlike traditional hotpot, you get your own broth pot. Choose from a range of chicken, spicy, veggie or tom yum. 2 of us opted for chicken. The other was undecided as to whether she wanted a bit of spice or not the owner suggested a split pot - yes!! This is an option! Best of both worlds! Then you simply choose whatever you want from the conveyor belt - sectioned into various categories - veg; seafood; beef, pork, lamb - all kinds of offerings even for the very fussy and more adventurous diners (tripe anyone?).
We had plenty to eat - all of which was very fresh! Look at our stack! Next time we are going to the noodle and rice bar (same owners) for some traditional handpulled noodles.
Do give it a try if you're in the area. Innovative dining and very relaxed atmosphere too.
Excellent new Chinese hot pot restaurant. You get a choice of broth and dipping sauce, and then cook your own meal from the meat, seafood and vegetables that are on the conveyor belt in front of you. It's really fun, and there's a great variety of fresh ingredients to choose from.
I had a very pleasant experience at this hotpot with great customer service, great value for money, and a lovely atmosphere. I found the staff to be very friendly and welcoming. I went there with my partner and we both enjoyed it to the fullest. It was our first time, and the staff made sure we understood the menu and how to prepare each item, and when they delivered the food, it looked delicious and tasted great. I would recommend it highly to anyone. The price is reasonable, and you get a lot for your money.

Having had a lovely time at my first Hotpot experience in London, I was excited to be able to go with my family to a different one in Manchester.
One Plus Chinese Restaurant offers a DIY hotpot - setup like a sushi train - it was a unique and delightful way to have a yummy dinner with people I care about. I’m a sucker for a sushi train, so being able to be impulsive and grab things that look good was fun.
It was a cold, windy Monday night, it even started to hail while we were ordering, so I was grateful to be inside eating delicious, warm, comfort food style eats on a night like that.
Between us, we had the Tom Yum, the Chicken and Spicy broths - and I tried some of each and they were all good. I was glad I had the chicken one, but on another night I could have easily picked one of the others.
The staff were efficient and polite, and were attentive with drinks and re-stocking the soup. I hit the seafood hard, but had a bit of everything.
What really set One Plus apart for me was the sauce station, the range of things there allow you to build a wide variety of flavours and to experiment and build different combinations.
The timings on the menu I followed, even setting the timer on my phone for the prawns and seafood, I did the red meats for less - but on the whole it is good and helpful guidance.
They had a good range of drinks - alcohol and non-alcoholic, and I embraced the vibe and had a couple of Tsingtao beers and they worked a treat.
Can highly recommend it if you’re wanting a casual, fun, shared dining experience. We all enjoyed what we made for ourselves and sharing bites with each other along the way.
Wow what a gem this place was! Sat down and was sounded by Asian customers which is always a good indicator that you’re in for a tasty time! I got the chicken and mushroom hotpot and the egg fried rice food was freshly cooked and very quick and tasted AMAZING!!!! This will be my new 1 stop shop for evening meals when I’m in town. Well done guys keep up the amazing hard work!
Super cool spot! Hot pot meets sushi conveyor belt. Got us in without a reservation, super grated for that. You order an individual broth then got to town on a variety of meats, veggies, noodles, and all the accoutrements. Definitely get the lamb. Concise unobtrusive service. Highly recommend the spicy broth! Super fairly priced too!
We ordered the brisket noodles and soy chicken drumstick noodles.
The service was polite and friendly, very attentive.
The bowls of noodles were huge, definitely more than enough, by the end of it, my tummy was bursting.
I personally prefer the brisket over the soy chicken, because the chicken was extremely dry and over cooked but the brisket was tender and flavoursome. The noodles were homemade and al dente.

Service great, food phenomenal. We quickly became regulars and crave the spicy Korean pork belly weekly. This is our go-to place to wow any visitors. VERY good price for the decent portion sizes. Best place for KBBQ in Manchester!!
Very nice, first time we tried hot pot. Broth could have been more flavourful but the meats and sauces were good. Little bit pricey £55 for 2 people. Excited to try the bbq next time
Such an amazing place with a wide range of food choices. Me and my girlfriend went for the BBQ option and it was amazing. The hospitality in there was so good. We felt very welcomed and they were helping us and recommending the best ways to enjoy our meal. I would %100 recommend it to anyone, amazing experience. Can’t wait to try the other floors!
Had seen plenty of reviews so thought would give it try. We went for bbq floor and had a banquet. Enjoy cooking our own food and all added to the experience. All staff were very friendly and helpful would definitely go again
Lovely casual place to get hotpot. Individual pots are a nice change to traditional hotpot which is shared.
Dishes are reasonably priced. The only thing I would say is meat quality could be better but all the other ingredients are good quality.
The dipping sauce station is one of the best of the hotspots I’ve been too.
Would definitely recommended
