Hawksmoor Manchester

Being a butcher the last think I would ever choose from a menu would be a steak ! But on the recommendation of a friend we took the plunge . I can’t recommend this place enough. The steak was cooked to perfection pink no blood the flavour was amazing . But more amazing was the Potted Beef starter ! It’s on another level , you have to try as it’s amazing Dessert was fresh and delicious. Service was impeccable! The server new his stuff and was well mannered, and looked after us really well

Amazing food staff lovely efficient and welcoming will definitely be back our steaks were cooked as requested and so tender

The service was fantastic. My ribeye was very thin and not juicy at all like a ribeye was supposed to be like. Considering its a steak house mainly, the steaks were below par for the price you pay. Everything else was lovely but my main thing here is supposed to be the food. I never wanted to complain as it was my wifes birthday party for the 3 of us. Never mind!!!

We had a great time and the staff, restaurant and food was great and as you would expect. Do I think it was worth £193 for 2 people? Definitely not and wouldn 't go back. There 's several local restaurants to us where the steaks were at least as good as here and would cost us around £90 £110 for a similar meal. Oh and they automatically added a 12.5% service charge (for 2 people! which I absolutely hate. I always ask the waiting staff if they get all of this on top of their wage. The answer is always a resounding no . After this I ask if I have the service charge removed and leave the same tip, would they get to keep it all? Again the answer is nearly always no usually it 's 50% or even less, unless you 're in an American style restaurant. Very questionable practice, and I generally try to avoid restaurants that do this, as I will with this one in future. Staff costs are built into the cost of the food in the UK and always have been.

I booked this restaurant after looking at trip advisor for steak restaurants in Manchester and I certainly wasn’t disappointed, the staff are so helpful and friendly, probably some of the nicest restaurant staff I have come across, they certainly make the experience more enjoyable. This was a surprise for my boyfriends birthday and he wasn’t disappointed. For a Tuesday night the place was packed, if your looking for somewhere quiet this isn’t the place for you, but if your looking for somewhere with a great atmosphere then don’t hesitate on booking. The food was outstanding and so full of flavour, not the cheapest place to eat but you get what you pay for and I certainly will be returning when back in Manchester.
