"I 'm sure we have all seen that stereotypical hipster dude who is seen at a coffee shop with his latest MacBook Pro while wearing clothes purchased from a thrift store, or who uses his latest iPhone to take and instagram (yes, that 's a verb now photos of himself with the homeless because his friends would think it was cool. Well, if that guy were a restaurant, he would look like Mughli. Why am I not surprised, then, that Mughli boasts of a clientele that includes the likes of Jared Leto? Let me explain myself. Mughli brands itself as something akin to a street food vendor at a railway station in South Asia. Well, if you ever happen to actually see a railway station in South Asia and the street food around it, you will find nothing in common between it and the ritzy Mughli, just like the guy flashing his electronics with the white Apple logo has nothing in common with the homeless. The pretension works for me, however. I quite enjoy experiencing comfort and luxury behind the façade of affectatious (yes, that also is an adjective now slumming. Mughli is one of the higher end South Asian restaurants on Manchester 's renowned Curry Mile (a misnomer for so many reasons, including the fact that it 's not a mile long, and that there are just as many if not more Middle Eastern restaurants and shisha lounges in this neighborhood as there are curry houses... parentheses are such a great tool for literary digressions, aren 't they? . The menu items and their descriptions are pretty standard, and generally do not appear to be too different from the offerings at other Indian Pakistani restaurants in the area. The execution of these dishes is where Mughli shines (now, do you see why my rating is 4 stars despite my snarky observations about the pretentiousness of this restaurant? . The masala chicken biryani, which is a must try according to the restaurant menu, is indeed an outstanding dish. This spicy chicken and rice dish is strewn with pomegranate jewels and fresh cloves of garlic, which enrich its flavor profile, and is finished in a pot sealed with putty dough to prevent the air and moisture from escaping. The biryani is served with gravy and yogurt raita. While the gravy is a totally redundant condiment, the raita does serve as an enhancement to the already flavorful biryani. This dish is so dissimilar to every version of biryani I 've ever had (and I grew up in South Asia that I almost don 't want to call it biryani. Whatever it needs to be christened, it is absolutely delicious! I don 't find any of the desserts here particularly exciting, but a cup of the desi chai (traditional tea is a great way to finish off a meal at Mughli."

"I often make visits to this quirky little slice of heaven! This place has a great vibe with lovely staff, small but this does not cramp its style! You can eat in or out and there's great variety in what they produce, loads of different milkshakes and smoothies which I am trying to get through but I am confident enough in this place to recommend anything! They also do food such as paninis, waffles and crepes along side a selection of hot drinks! Prices are not extortionate either, very cheap in consideration for what you get! I'd say this is designed more for younger people due to the decor and menu itself but definitely something different and worth a try for anybody!"

"The food at this restaurant is amazing, and the hospitality is welcoming! Some people may be put off by the average setup compared to contemporary standards, but don't let that deter you if you enjoy delicious food. Despite arriving late on a working day with my family, we received excellent service from the staff, including the owner's young son who helped us with our order and questions about allergens. The atmosphere left us with nothing but positive feelings towards the establishment. We were the last ones to leave but will definitely be returning soon with friends and family. I would give it 4.5 stars, but considering the value for money and atmosphere, it's a total winner!"

"No complaints about food though the falafel and halloumi cheese hot wraps, the wrap was stuck to the cardboard and hard to get to! But very tasty. Coffee usual standard- very good Tables were not cleaned unless requested and the floor was dirty , littered with food with the table base looking filthy.Obviously no deep cleaning done in a long time. the dustpan and brush left in the middle of the eating area. There was a team manager around but she paid no attention to the state of the eating area. Very disappointed with level of cleanliness"

"Amazing food as always, we ordered the whole menu. Perfect, AUTHENTIC food with actual spice which is hard to come by in London I'm Indian. it is NOT Dishoom so if you're expecting westernised food with no spice then this place isn't for you. Great ambience, really makes you feel like you're in a kitchy biryani house in New Delhi. Can't recommend enough GO STOP READING GO NOW"

"I visited a charming coffee shop with a pleasant ambiance. While there was some confusion with my order, the server kindly clarified that the iced coffee drink I inquired about was not on the menu but was actually an iced latte. I also learned that customers need to order and pay at the counter, rather than having a server take their order at the table. I enjoyed a BLT sandwich, which was recommended to me by the same server who suggested the iced latte. The service was a bit slow, with my sandwich taking about 45 minutes to arrive, but the server apologized for the delay. Despite the wait, I found the atmosphere to be relaxing as I waited with a self-serve water jug and a good book on my Kindle. The sandwich was delicious, especially for those following a vegan/vegetarian diet. Overall, I had a positive experience and would recommend this coffee shop to others."

"We ordered the steak sandwich and the avocado eggs benedict on sourdough toast with smoked salmon both were really delicious and fresh! Drinks were just average (we ordered a batch brew and a cold Milo milk drink); although, my husband tried the flat white at the Oxford Road branch the day before and said it was one of the best flat whites he has had. Knocked off one star as was difficult to access with a pram up the two steps and there was no baby changing facilities. Staff were really lovely and efficient!"

"Awful service. Went in to order poppadoms and first staff member said yes no problem and then another member of staff assuming the owner turned around saying no they don’t have poppadoms becasue he clearly couldn’t be bothered to fry them and thought I won’t be ordering anything else. The food here is tasteless and bland! Would never recommend this place to anyone! Also lots of dirty bin bags in their back with a very rotten horrible smell! Needs a very deep clean."

"I recently returned to the Rosewood London for a four-day stay, and once again had breakfast at the Mirror Room each day. I must say, you will not find a better breakfast dining experience in London. The room itself, along with the decor and table settings, are absolutely beautiful. Each day, we were warmly welcomed by a hostess, a lovely young lady who always had a smile on her face and a can-do attitude. She seated us each day, although I unfortunately do not know her name, I want to express my gratitude. The servers and all other staff in the Mirror Room were exceptional in their service and attentiveness, and their great attitude did not go unnoticed. Thank you all once again. And of course, the food was simply amazing each time we dined there. The flavors were delicious and the presentation on the plate was top-notch, making each meal even more special. On behalf of my family, thank you to everyone for making our stay so wonderful."

"Two of our roast beef’s were fatty with a white sinu through the middle, even the meat area was hard to cut with a normal knife. I’ve had Aberdeen Angus cattle so know what good meat should be like. One pudding was provided incorrectly to what was ordered and suddenly got replaced. We have had good meals with you but were disappointed yesterday."

"Gorgeous food. We were sat by the window which was away from the main dining area so a little ambiance lost. Pricy, but has expected that. We had tasting menu which was all really tasty. One of the courses which was delicious also came out like large portions though of curry, rice and dhal. I would have prefer to have kept the smaller plates theme going as you expect in a tasting menu. The staff were all very pleasant. Our young waitress was very sweet but appeared a little inexperienced. On a few occasions she removed peoples plates before the last person had finished which wasn’t an excessive amount of time and was a bit annoying. I had to ask her to leave them in the end. Her response was that the next course was ready. When paying Mayfair prices that definitely shouldn’t happen."

"My wife and I had dinner at Masala Craft one evening. It is known for serving Indian street food such as pav bhaji, vada pav and samosa chaat, along with traditional curries. The restaurant's ambiance is pleasant, decorated with old Bollywood posters and Indian company logos. We ordered samosa chaat, bagan bharta, prawn madras, pilau rice, and chilli naan. The food was good overall, but the prawn madras was extremely spicy. The service was slow, likely due to the lack of staff. I would give them four stars, but due to the slow service, I can only give them three out of five. It seemed like there were not enough staff in both the front and back of house. Masala Craft should consider hiring more employees to improve the customer experience."

"Exactly what you would hope for. Really tasty food, lovely atmosphere and service, relaxed and a thoroughly nice experience. I met a friend here (she has a 6 month old and I have a 4 year old) and it was perfect for both. Baby changing facilities in the spacious and clean toilet, a lunch box option for my little one and relaxed seating with plenty of room. Longholme Hash was delicious, I asked for mine with scrambled eggs rather than fried and it was scrummy. Will most definitely go again"

"I 'm a BIG food lover and have been to every so called 'Lebanese ' restaurant across London and have found nothing can come close to Beirut Nights. One thing above all that really did it for me was the customer service. From the moment I arrived to the moment I left, everyone made me feel very welcome and really did everything they could to ensure I had a great time. The food! What can I say about the food! The farruj musahab (baby chicken) is unbelievably tender and tasty and is also very affordable. We smoked shisha outside afterwards and it was refreshing to not be at a shisha place that is full of loud teens. It was a chilled out atmosphere with loads of cool looking people I 'd recommend this place to anyone without thinking twice."

"I have been coming here since it opened. Chai street has always been an absolutely fantastic place to eat. The food is amazing and the service is second to none. This was proven to me again today when I ordered a take away through a third party app. My food was delivered to the wrong address and subsequently never arrived. The Chai street staff we absolutely amazing at sorting it out for me, even though it is not their responsibility once they have given the food to the delivery driver. I cannot recommend this place enough both for the service and the food. If I could give more then 5 stars I would."

"This place is immaculately clean compared to others. The staff are friendly and the we found the prices were good. As a family we had a mixed range of food and drinks, a freshly cooked pizza, a wrap, a panini and a Jacket Potato meal. All were tasty and the latte's came hot with patterns on them. My son's choice of the Oreo Milkshake was certainly the nicest one by miles. The place is busy however on arrival our table was cleaned quickly while we waited. The place has a nice ambience to it and i noticed the large upstairs seating area as well when visiting the washrooms on the first floor. Do expect to wait a short while as the food is cooked fresh on order."

"After attending the cafe many times and enjoying the food, admittedly a few years ago. My wife and I went to the cafe with our infant son this morning in a pram. Walking in 2 tables were taken with the entire rest of the cafe empty, we were made to feel that we weren’t welcome with a pram by the staff member due to the fact that they needed “both walkways free”. I offered a compromise of sitting on a table in the window where we definitely wouldn’t be in the way, only to be told this is reserved for tables of 5/6. In a cafe at 9:15 that was 90% empty out of season. Shocking customer service, spend your money elsewhere at the myriad of nice cafes and bars in st Ives. Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly Wheelchair accessibility: Wouldn’t be accommodating to this either due to blacking walkways"

"I’ve been coming here for 2 years, being a local and have always loved the food and service. Today was a poor experience. The wait staff wasn’t keen to take on the feedback so posting here instead. Having ordered a bap, I was given a hard crusty baguette and told that they were out of soft rolls. I understand this can happen and it’s not in their control. However I’d expect this to be communicated on ordering or when it was being made and not just be given a different item without even being informed or given an apology. The bread was very difficult to eat being hard and grazed by gum and I had to send it back. Not even an apology. Don’t think I’ll be returning."
