Rosso Restaurant

Three of us had dinner on a Saturday evening, the food was amazing we had the antipasto misto which was a great selection of meats, cheeses and vegetables which was perfect for the three of us.
For mains we have the chateaubriand and a pasta dish, these were hot and nicely presented.
The desserts of profiteroles and a chocolate dome were just fabulous!

Really disappointed very small portions with no potato or vegetable served with main meals nor was this advised at time of placing order.

Left the restaurant still hungry with my 15 year old son asking if he could get something else to eat!

Not good

Lovely food, great atmosphere. Very good value for money would Highly recommend

2nd visit and its a really lovely restaurant - the staff are attentive and the food is delicious. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a place to catch up with friends and family.

Went for the lunch menu. Great food, good wine, great value. Will definitely be back.

Always find it an excellent spot for lunch. Great service, super food and wine and a lovely ambience.
Prices not bad either. It always maintains its standards of service, whether busy or quiet and the food and drink are great.

First class experience, the place itself is very classy inside but more importantly the food was first class as was the service. Great job everyone!

I booked this for my daughters 18th birthday ( i ticked birthday on the reservation form).
We were seated , in a virtually empty restaurant ( 4 other tables occupied), next to a pillar, facing the fire escape and with a till point ?behind us. We were not offered a choice of tables. This was used by staff walking to and fro behind us. On the reservation it states there will be a (small) birthday cake for the occasion, this did not happen.
Disappointing all round to be honest, and the privilege of paying over a £100 pounds and not informed that the service charge was already on the bill.

Always enjoy it at Rosso Always enjoy it at Rosso Always enjoy it at Rosso Always enjoy it at Rosso

Food was lovely, full of flavour and good size portions! However, prices are too high. Cost around £150 just for 3 people having 2 courses...Although nice place for a meal on a special occasion if you don't mind having a very expensive meal!

Me and my friend had a loverly catch up. We had 2 courses each, and bottle of wine and 6 gin and tonics. Under £100.

Lovely decor food was delicious and staff very friendly , the nicest pornstar cocktail I have ever had and I’ve had a few they also brought out a cake for my friends birthday free of charge which I thought was lovely , highly recommended, only thing I would say spoilt it a bit was we were sat right near the kitchen and all the waiters were lined up in a queue and I felt a bit rushed as if I was being watched but at least the service was quick !

Rosso never disappoints. Excellent food, excellent service, every time.

lovely restaurant, food was brilliant and service was great, definitely return

I have been a few times before and have always had a pleasurable time. This time round I wasn’t as impressed. I found my lamb was over cooked although asked for it medium-rare. I also had to remind the staff to bring out the complimentary birthday dessert I was told I would receive.
I expected a little better considering the style of restaurant and the price.

Really attentive service our waiter was excellent - great music relaxed atmosphere and the food was extremely tasty - first visit would definitely go back

Although at first the waitress was slow to come and take our drinks order. She did then take our drinks and food order at once, to compensate for the wait. Apart from that the service was very good.

Our favourite lunch restaurant in Manchester many happy afternoons spent there - good value and friendly service

We've dined at Rosso many times and it never fails to deliver. We had the lunch menu and a bottle of wine which is a good quality, especially for the price of£9.95 the service was excellent and the food delicious. The only small negative was the chicken breast for the main course did not come with any vegetables or potatoes so you had no choice other than to order a side dish. Other than that it was an excellent experience as always

Good was excellent as were the drinks. Dessert was one of the best I've ever had. Nice little suprise birthday cake as well. Nice touch

Since the restaurant was refurbished a year or two ago it has really lost its atmosphere and charm - Even the staff don't seem particularly happy to be there! They were all very polite and helpful and lovely, it all just felt a little flat.
The tables were far too close together... maybe just take out one table per row and space the rest out - this would be perfect. Bring the old soul back that Rosso used to be so renowned for ...and get the old photos all the way down the staircase again!
Food wise: Lamb was amazing, desserts were really disappointing :(
I've not written Rosso off, I am just hoping it comes back to life.

We visited for lunch. Service was great and the food was fresh and tasty. However, the venison meatballs were extremely gristly which was extremely off putting and my partner could not eat the rest of the meal. Having said that, all other items we ordered were absolutely delicious. Based on this, though we would not be in a rush to come back.

First class restaurant, outstanding food. The staff were very attentive and friendly. Thi has to be my favourite place in Manchester 😊

Served by a waitress with a dreamcatcher tattoo behind her ear and she was fabulous! Food was outstanding

Very classy. Excellent ambience food and service amazing and made the night special for my friends birthday.

I came with my boyfriend and we had a wonderful time

Beautiful restaurant with fantastic food! Visited for my mum's birthday and had a lovely time. Service was spot on and ambience was just right.

Food was amazing place is gorgeous will definitely be coming again

Excellent food and service. Would highly recommend

Had a lovely afternoon. Service is spot-on. Went for the 2 course lunch deal menu with a bottle of wine for £9.99, big mistake. Food was lovely, service was spot-on, value was just OK but the side dishes were all an added extra AND the £9.99 bottle of wine was pretty bad. We couldn’t drink it and ended up buying another bottle for £27 which bumped up the bill. Would definitely recommend and would definitely return (been quite a few times and never been disappointed - this restaurant is so tastefully decorated) but please don’t be fooled by the “good value” lunch menu. It turned out to be more expensive than we thought. Great afternoon though.

It is always a treat to go here for lunch. Superb food at a very reasonable price. The setting and service matches the food. We love it.

It’s a lovely restaurant, fabulous food and service, my favourite place to eat in Manchester.

Food was lovely and the setting is perfect. However, the waiter and service was appalling. Had no interest in trying to engage with us and was rather rude. Spoilt the brilliant food and atmosphere.

Whilst the food is oustanding as per previous visits. On this occasion service was poor. Didn't get asked for a drink until food order then starters arrived 20 mins later & still no drink then waiter said he had to pour them himself behind bar, it wasnt busy. Mains timing & food very good. We asked for dessert menus they didnt arrive waiter kept referring as if someone else was responsible to bring it over. Got menus with a poor choice of xmas desserts of which non of us liked. Id emailed 3 weeks before asking if normal dessert menu was on but had no reply. We then waited 15 to 20 mins for waiter to come over & ask if we wanted anything, which we didnt. All in all without normal service waiting time this was extended by another 45 mins. Its poor given price & a low number of 10 tables in our area which was being serviced by 2 waiters & a head waiter guiding them. The waiter seemed unhappy & gping through the motions not helping us experience our pre new year date with any exctitement, rapport or pace.

Lovely restaurant and decor. Staff were excellent. Food was nice overall. Excellent starters & mains but wider range of desserts is needed with only a choice of four, one of which was ice cream.

Food was of good quality, loved the scenary.. the waiter was spot on and the toilets were very clean.

Always a brilliant visit at Rossos! Food is brilliant and very filling with a variety to choose from. Lovely birthday touch I love it

Excellent value, food was delicious, nice ambience, clean
Could have more vegan options instead of pizza
Waiter did not know if risotto could be vegan

Too loud for a restaurant and this should have been explained on the webesite. Food was average nothing to write home about and we had to wait over 30mins to sit in our reserved seat.

You believe your going for a sophisticated evening but it’s more like sitting in a night club.
Bar space is too small lot of standing around.

It is a most excellent restaurant to visit if in Manchester!
