The Best Restaurants in Didsbury, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom (2025)

The nicest meal we’ve had in a long time! The food was great, drinks great, staff very attentive! A lovely birthday meal out, thank you!

Really really excellent food and service. The menu is relatively small, yet it was still tricky to order as all the dishes sounded delicious. The lamb was cooked to perfection and melted in the mouth... and the baked cheesecake was beautiful.

I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Delightful in every way

Simply the Best! We have been regular diners at Number 4 Dine & Wine over the years and every time it delivers fantastic food accompanied by excellent wine and a relaxed dining experience. We have introduced friends and neighbours to this wonderful place and it has never failed to impress. We enjoyed main courses of stone bass and lamb after our starters, the Christmas pudding is so worth the year long wait, best we have ever had!

A lovely restaurant that is a keeper. The staff are friendly and the food is excellent. Service wise we had to wait approximately ten to fifteen minutes to get the bill paid even though we asked three times, oh well maybe they were busy due to it being Valentine's Day. All in all the meal was filling, hot and tasty.

This place has to be one of the best Indian restaurants we have been to. The main courses were very nice but the starters & desserts were absolutely sensational. Everything is made fresh in house and you can tell. The service was absolutely amazing and lively for a Monday night. Elegant decor and atmosphere. Very polite and knowledgeable staff who we had great conversation with. We will be back again. First time we have ever tipped on top of service charge already added to a bill but it was definitely well deserved. Thank you for a fantastic night.

Lovely family run restaurant, food was amazing, well presented and the flavours flooding through, wonderful atmosphere, no detail to small. Excellent..travelled from Cornwall to visit friends, met a lovely lady on the tram who recommended indique, full of praise for this wonderful restaurant....thank you. Dominic and Jacqui

It’s where we always go for a special occasion. We went again last night, our kids chose it as they like it so much and it was for their exam success that we were out. The food is stunning, everything is perfect. The service is friendly and attentive and there’s a relaxed ambiance even though it’s busy; it deserves to be. We have been here so many times over the years, it’s consistently good. There has never a been a time when we weren’t delighted with our night out. Many thanks.

Great little restaurant/bistro. We had the autumn bistro menu at lunchtime and it was excellent. Some really nice autumnal flavours and decent portions too. We were going for the three courses for £20 but didn't have room for pud. I'm blaming the truffle fries we had as an extra! We'll be back for pud next time.

We attended this restaurant for the lunch menu special which is a really good deal. It’s £15 for two courses and £20 for three courses. Would it be an early lunch time we arrived? The restaurant was not very busy. The lady who was serving us was absolutely lovely though very friendly and very attentive. It’s probably not the best place to go if you are vegetarian as there is only one option for the mains. There is the option of the more expensive menu which we were not inclined to pay for lunchtime treat. Quality of the food was incredible. It was all very fresh locally. I would happily recommend this restaurant to anybody else.

Wow! Why haven’t I eaten here before? Superb from start to finish. The staff have everything absolutely spot on - service was great and food top notch. The manager was doing everything to ensure our large group was well looked after and we all had a great time. Can’t wait to go back and thanks to everyone who made it a great night!

Lovely experience from start to finish. Considering it was very busy with the 50% discount, there was no major waiting for our food. We started with the cheesy garlic bread, bruschetta and capaccio. It was all lovely. Seafood linguine and margherita pizza for the mains. I also would recommend the fries, they tasted so good! Tiramisu and ice cream for dessert. The tiramisu wss really good, a decent portion. Ice cream wasn't amazing, the scoops were really small. Service was next level. So warm and welcoming. Very impressed.

Great food with great service. The staff are so attentive and friendly. Our waitress Chelsea always took care of us, she's a star. She recommended nice dishes, cocktails were good. 5 stars for Chelsea and Piccolino. Will visit back again to try some more varieties.

We visited here for a Valentine’s meal, we were sat in the ambient outside heated area - and it was the perfect setting for our romantic evening. The service from our waitress Carmen was great, she was friendly and made our evening all the better. Food also came nice a quickly which was a bonus. Would recommend- thank you!

Wow ,what can i say absolutely amazing the staff the food the restaurant 😋 we loved it and will be back one of the best in the North west 100% well recommended 😀

Azzuro is our absolute favourite restaurant! My wife and I have been eating here for 15 years. Everything is outstanding. Emil and his family are the perfect hosts. Highly recommend 👌

A nice and cozy place to enjoy some fine Italian food in Didsbury. The fresh ingredients and the taste of good food and flavours is something you can go back with. Some vegetarian options and plenty of sea food options. Worth a definite visit

Came here with my wife on Monday, and was so impressed we brought our daughter back on Thursday for her 18th birthday. The food and service were excellent, and the staff treated our daughter so nicely and really made her feel special, giving her one of the nicest evenings of her life. I have seldom if ever felt so welcomed at a restaurant, and the food was beautiful as well.

What an amazing meal second time been first time was great this was even better quality of food was amazing service great. Shout out to Paulo very attentive. Wasn’t expecting birthday surprise for my niece who had just turned 12. .

We had a lovely family dinner and everyone really enjoyed themselves. The food and desserts were nice. The only issue was the garlic bread which was burnt underneath and we had to get it replaced, the second one was really nice.

I had an amazing experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious. The staff was very attentive and made us feel very welcome. Special thanks to Rose served us throughout the evening - she was amazing and so lovely. The atmosphere was modern and chic, perfect for a night out. I will definitely recommend it to everyone.

Food was amazing !! Would definitely recommend and go back again ! We got the set menu every plate was perfection ❤️

The food is great here and the service is friendly. We're vegetarian and found plenty of options on the menu. Plus, they were all really tasty. We'd booked a table inside for a late lunch but ended up sitting outside in their covered seating area as it turned out to be a nice day, and the air-con made it quite chilly inside. I 1000% recommend it here, and I'll definitely be back.

Really enjoyed the food here! Small plates / sharing style. Tasty food! Great selection of drinks too: cocktails, draft beers and wine. Thank you

Excellent all round. I thought expensive (£180 for 4 inc just 1 glass of wine each) but was told I'm old and out of date with restaurant prices ! My wife had the scallops and unlike unlucky Paul's review found them excellent. Star main was the lamb, perfect pink if asked for it that way. On a pleasant evening sitting in the "conservatory" or whatever you would call it very enjoyable.

Amazing restaurant and would definitely go back again!! Quality of food was great, everything cooked to perfection and portion sizes were really good too. Service was really good, especially for a busy Saturday evening. Ambience was lovely, we sat in the glass roomed area, needed to put the heaters on but was warm enough. Thanks to the amazing team, it was a great experience

So lucky to have this restaurant in Didsbury! Every dish we had was incredible. The portions were a generous size and you could tell the chef had used high quality ingredients. We thought the restaurant had a lovely atmosphere. The staff were friendly and the service was superb. I can't stop thinking about the wonderful meal we had and can't wait to visit again.

What a fantastic place! The food was incredible and delicious. Everything cooked to perfection. The chefs here should be proud of their menu and their skills as my culinary experience was excellent. Thankyou for a lovely evening and for such attentive yet spacious service.

We had a large family get together last Saturday here. It was our first time and we loved it. The restaurant is large and airy and has a really nice atmosphere is spacious and light. The food was lovely. The staff are amazing. We would definitely go back in a heartbeat.

Our first time eating at Alberts, we are here visiting from the south coast, food is amazing and lovely service. We parked just down the road as car park is small. We just wish we had an Alberts near us, we will definitely return when we are here again. 👌

First time visiting here celebrating our anniversary. They extended the time for their 2-course set menu as part of their January offers. We ordered a starter, 2 mains, and a dessert. All the staff were friendly and welcoming as soon as we entered the building. They were also attentive too. As we ordered one starter and one dessert, they provided us side plates and extra cutlery for sharing. The food was very good. Simple and nothing over the top which we prefer. Thank you Albert's for the evening. We enjoyed ourselves and will visit again.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Albert’s Restaurant & Bar in Didsbury for a Sunday dinner with family, and it was a delightful experience from start to finish. We decided to indulge in a variety of dishes, and I must say, the roast lamb was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and beautifully seasoned. The accompanying sides complemented the dish beautifully. I also tried Albert’s burger, which was juicy and packed with flavor. It's clear that they take pride in their ingredients, as each bite was a treat. The roast beef was another highlight, served with all the traditional trimmings. It was hearty and satisfying, making it a perfect choice for a Sunday meal. The attention to detail in the presentation and taste was evident. Service throughout our meal was excellent. The staff were attentive our mane waiter Becky was great without being intrusive, ensuring we had everything we needed and making us feel welcome. To top it all off, we enjoyed their home-brewed beer, Albert Beer, which was fantastic. It had a rich flavor that paired wonderfully with our meals. Overall, I highly recommend Albert’s Restaurant & Bar for a Sunday dinner with family. The combination of delicious food, great service, and the inviting atmosphere made for a memorable outing. We’ll definitely be back!

The most delicious pizza I’ve had! The specials on the board are great - I highly recommend trying them. We also got a standard mozzarella and that was great too. Only downside is that a service charge is added by default and it feels awkward to remove it, this seems to be the norm at most places now and is very uncomfortable (it was only 2 of us, in and out very quickly at lunch time, didn’t ask/request anything extra). Nonetheless, we will be back.

The restaurant was bright and clean, and the staff were very friendly. I ordered No. 1, No. 7, and No. 8 of the pizzas. The pizza dough was one of the best I've had in the UK. The toppings were normal, but the chewiness and crunchiness of the dough covered everything and improved the quality of the pizza. I ordered garlic dip together, but the scent of herbs was so strong in the dip that I didn't feel the original taste of garlic. If you look at just pizza itself, it's one of the best restaurant that you can eat the pizza in England. I highly recommend it as one of the top restaurants in the UK.

just came back from Franco Manca (Didsbury branch) and can i just say: i was really impressed! from the lively atmosphere, to the outstanding service and to the really tasty and light pizza dough/flavours!! as an italian it definitely hit home with the nostalgic flavours. even the coffee and ice cream tasted really authentic! we got the number 2,3,5 and 10 pizzas (halal friendly options) and we really enjoyed them. we ate so quick because it was so good, that we barely managed to take any pictures before we had to leave. they were really accomodating and the wait times weren't bad at all considering that the place was packed compliments to the chef, and warm regards to michele for making our visit even more pleasant. will be back again! grazie mille michele ✌️

Tried this place for the first time tonight. Ordered a Pizza from the specials menu, plus added some extra toppings. It was exquisite. Best pizza I've had in Manchester hands down. Fresh and tasty. Generous toppings and size, evenly spread around the whole pizza, not just the centre like other restaurants ( I've eaten at 10 or more Italian Restaurants in Manchester City Centre in the last 6 months). The Manager was very accommodating and hospitable. Highly recommend this place.
