We had a lovely two course dinner. The starters were lovely and a good portion size. The main courses were brilliant with lovely flavours and lots of choice for different dietary requirements. The dinner was delivered quickly with time for an extra drink before the show. The waiter was lovely and the service was quick with no complaints.

Staff are super friendly and helpful. Reasonable prices and delicious food. Especially like the lunch menu and meal of the day. Great feel and atmosphere also manages to feel cozy despite the size and openness of the place. Love the big windows also. Kids play kitchen Is super cute also but doesn't stop the place feeling very grown up friendly .

Really great restaurant attached to the Lowry Theatre in Salford. We had purchased the VIP package with some theatre tickets and it's really worth every penny! You get a glass of prosecco on arrival, three courses of food (you choose from a menu), a bottle of wine to share between two of you and a hot drink to finish. You can either have everything before the meal or save a glass of wine/your dessert for the interval. The food was delicious and the service was excellent, would definitely recommend!

We visit this restaurant a couple of times a year and today it again lived well up to our expectations. The food was prepared to an excellent standard and the service was friendly, confident and efficient. A special mention for Lizzy who was very engaging and helped make our dining experience even more enjoyable.

I recently visited Eight Restaurant in Harrogate, and it was a truly enjoyable experience. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and inviting, with a stylish yet comfortable setting that made for a relaxing dining experience.

Food was delicious and service was great with friendly staff. We went for a pre-theatre meal, it was served quickly, but you didn't feel rushed (so you were done in plenty of time to get to the show).

The staff was welcoming and friendly. A good small menu but completely understand keep things basic and quick service ahead of theatre showing. The food was delicious and cooked perfectly. Full of flavours and well presented. Quick service and reasonably priced.
