    Heard lots of things about Onda restaurant, and been wanting to try it for a while now. The service itself was pretty good, the food not so much... I feel that it is overrated. Food is average at best. Pasta wasnt fully cooked and was hard to eat. Expensive for what it is. Would not go again.

    Onda is one of my favourite places in Manchester. We love the food, the presentation, the service, the way you can see the chefs working. It’s just great. We will be back, many, many times in the future.

    Had a wonderful time dining at Onda pasta bar. The service was brilliant, the women that served us was super friendly and very helpful when it came to explaining the menu as it was my partner and I's first time visiting:). The crab fettuccine was amazing and the vodka pasta was great. The bread with a trio of butters was so tasty to start with. Would definitely recommend for a casual date night :).

    First visit and enjoyed it. Nice welcome and quickly shown to table. Specials were well explained as was the typical ordering ideas. Food and wine were excellent. Small menu focusses the quality of the cooking. Finished with homemade Tiramisu. Great!
