My first introduction to fine dining, and was so glad I came here for it. We came during a 50% offer, and would happily return at full price!
No exaggeration to say it was the nicest meal I'd ever had (I had the pork belly main).
With all three courses, and the quality of service we received, the premium level of dining was evident throughout.
As someone very inexperienced with fine dining, but passionate about food, my meal here has opened up a whole new ball game. I highly doubt anything will come close to the pork belly at TNQ though!!
Absolute fine dining. We came during a 50% off menu offer and wow the food was insanely good! If you're wanting to be full then it's probably not the place for you as portions weren't huge, with the price and the status we didn't expect massive portions.
The service was fast and the waiters were lovely too!
I honesty cannot recommend the food enough, as someone who doesn't like to spend masses of money - I would still come back here when there's no offers on. That's how good this food was, we had a 3 course meal for 2 people, and drinks. During the offer the total bill came to about £65 which was great value especially with the quality of food.
Small but cosy, airy and feel good atmosphere.
Lovely staff, they were so helpful and polite.
Food came quickly and was delicious l, especially liked the crispy pork belly starter and lamb kofta, also the sticky toffee desert ..yum ...brilliant price to for 3 courses at £26
Thank you 😊
Absolutely superb again!!! Early valentines for us the smoked haddock croquettes the star of the show for me and my wife loved her carpachio and belly pork. Lovely restaurant and fantastic staff. A hidden gem 👌
After a movie on the New Year’s Day, we decided to have a lazy late lunch and just dropped in TNQ where we were welcomed by Ali who so nicely greeted us! Ali & Paria made our day super special with their kindness and great hospitality. The roast dinner is a must have! We will be back soon for more! Wonderful food, wonderful people and wonderful experience!
I cannot begin to say what an incredible evening we had here. I took my partner for his 40th and as I live in the Midlands, did a lot of research on where to go that was walking distance from our hotel.
TNQ stood out with its reviews and it's easy to see why. The food was sublime, I could have eaten my starter alone ten times over. The cocktails were lovely and the atmosphere was perfect. As I explained we needed somewhere quieter, they couldn't be more accommodating giving me 2 choices of suitable tables.
Both of us completely cleared our plates for both courses, one of the best meals we both had ever eaten. I would go again in a heartbeat.
TNQ is an experience. Whether you're a local resident or a visitor to Manchester, this place is a must-visit for anyone seeking contemporary British cuisine at its finest. The relaxed yet stylish atmosphere, coupled with the culinary expertise on display, makes TNQ a true gem in the heart of the Northern Quarter. I can't recommend it enough and eagerly anticipate my next visit!
Pretty good experience overall with the express menu. Food nicely presented
Pork belly starter was quite chewy though.
Flat iron steak also a bit small, especially compared to the very generous portion of the Porter pie.
Service friendly and professional
I recently visited TNQ with my boyfriend, shortly before visiting Manchester Cathedral for an event. At first, I was not too sure what to expect from this restaurant, as it was the first suggested restaurant to pop up on my google search. However, my experience at the TNQ, to my surprise was delightful. The food was absolutely exquisite. From the presentation to the portion sizes and most importantly the taste and texture of each dish. For starters i ordered the roasted cauliflower. Out of this world to say the least. It is not too often, when I am absolutely utterly blown away by a starter. Compliments to the chef, as soon as I finished. The wait-time between starters and mains was appropriately timed. I believe that the perfect amount of time for the food to settle between starters and mains was suitable. Next, I had chosen to eat the beautiful Gnocchi which was one of the vegetarian options. Usually, I rarely go for the Gnocchi, due to never having a great experience with the taste of other dishes at previous restaurants. However, this night i felt rather curious. Devine- Was the only word to describe the main. After we ate the mains, we had no other choice but to experiment with the desserts. Deciding which dessert to chose from off the menu, was a challenge and a half, because every dish which presented itself before me on the menu, had my mouth watering. In the end, we both decided to finish off with sharing a Sticky Toffee Pudding. Gorgeous, it was. The food was a ten out of ten. I could tell that the waiters and waitresses were highly trained as I have never had such a good experience before, at such restaurant. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that I shall be returning in the near future. This was quite possibly one of the best restaurant experiences I have ever had in my life, and I would highly recommend visiting. Thank you TNQ for making our night that extra bit special.
Quality of food was really amazing, service quality is excellent. I came there with my collegues for a small lunch break and was not expecing that much. It was amazing and highly recommended.
