Quality steak! by Gord (rated 9/10)
Been a couple of times now and had fillet steak which was awesome. Nice ships too and various veg's were all tasty. IF there's an offer on (it was 50% off when we last went) then it's a bee-line for this place.

Best in town by dinesout (rated 9/10)
Superb place - great (and generally consistent) food, the best service you'll find in Manchester (the training's brilliant) and it's in a top location.
I use the place regularly (5/6 times a month) and I've yet to have a bad experience - great range of fruit juices and smoothies etc for the non-drinker.
Well worth a look in.

Gorgeous... by Anthony Murray (rated 9/10)
I just thought that this restaurant was fantastic; I took my fiancé here for our first date (which obviously went down well!). The food was gorgeous and the steaks were mouth watering, almost melted in my mouth. Emma had the Seabass, which I do warn you comes WHOLE (as the menu does suggest) however our lovely server ensured it was beheaded and de-boned. Although a steak restaurant may conger up images of men in suits this restaurant was perfect for a first, second or third date, with a massive selection of fish and healthy fruit smoothies – so no need to eat all that Veg just go to the grill on the alley for one of your 5 a-day!! I even added a shot of vodka to mine for a masculine boost (or confidence boost). Nearly a year on and we will be heading back for our anniversary meal and I can ensure this will not be my frst visit back and will certainly not be my last.

The best steak in Manchester? by peter rodgers (rated 7/10)
The new baby from the Living Room team sports very much the same type of decor as a revamped EstEstEst - loads of timber, and exposed brick set off by clever lighting. It's full of city types (90% male on our last visit) and you can pretty much snort the testosterone as you enter at lunchtime. This is the only place in town as far as I am aware that serves Japanese reared Kobe beef - hand reared, Guinness-fed, hand-massaged and super pampered livestock reputed to yield the tenderest and most succulent cut of beef on the planet. And all for just £50 per steak. So naturally we had to try it...And it was pretty damn good too. But worth £50? Probably not. (I still think the best steaks in Manchester are to be found at the Gaucho Grill). But the buzzy atmosphere of the Grill On The Alley beats the showy theatricality of Gaucho's hands down. So if you are with a bunch of (fairly wealthy) friends looking for a great atmosphere with good (but not quite spectacular) food this is definitely worth a try.
