Think we might have been unlucky with Malmaison Friday night. Food was poor really!! I ordered Chicken Cordon Bleu but with Plain Mash if possible, I got the plainest piece of chicken with plain mash, other main was smoked haddock that was quite overcooked. Dessert was Bread and butter pudding, leftover croissants and pain au chocolat from breakfast-no mention of chocolate in description) however i have to say our complaints were dealt with superbly. Great service. Would not let it put me of

We went to Malmaison Brasserie for a last minute sunday dinner last night. The entrance to the hotel is amazing as is the food. I must recommend the Mussel and Clam Chowder - it was devine. For those with a bigger appetite then you just have to try the Mal Burger with gorgeous skinny fries - be warned though-It's HUGE!! The staff were very helpful and the restaurant itself was lovely - it was a bit dark though and they had left the cheeseboard out which did smell a bit but they happily moved it!

great cheerful service and great food as always at mal maison. love the ambience, although a little too dark at times to read the menu properly!

Malmaison is a good quality restaraunt. No complaints over the food or service. It was a little quiet and perhaps not quite as swish as I'd been hoping but a minor grumble. The wine list is very good but prices are a little steep.

Very nice hams and meats to start, followed by a delicious burger. The service was very good also, however, at 7:30 on Friday night, the atmosphere was a little dim. Overall a decent meal in pleasant surroundings.

It was my first visit to Malmaison which was easy to find and a great location. I ate the bangers which were great, but unfortunately my fries were a bit disappointing.

This restaurant has received mixed reviews in the past, however we couldnt fault it last night.Great efficient service, intimate atmosphere and food to die for.The black forest martini was wonderful. Would go there again for that alone!

Malmaison Manchester proved a relaxing evening - interesting selection of local food and wine and no pressure on a Saturday night to clear the table. Lemon sponge was a bit dry though!

Malmaison Brasserie in Manchester is a mixed bag really. We have been there with 4 persons and all the starters were pretty good. Main courses on the other hand unfortunately not as good. We had three times beef from the grill which are were cooked the same eventhough different cookings have been asked for. Fries with steaks very lumpy. One person had a pasta dish which arrived basically cold. Service friendly but unprofessional. Will not go back again, which is a shame for the nice location.

We had the locally sourced 2 course lunch for £14.95. Our friendly waitress (also locally sourced) was very knowlegeable about local farm producers and gave good advice about the limited choices available. The food whilst rather dull-chesse on toast starter- mutton chops or fish pie main course- was good and fresh. The wine list was extensive and very expensive but the choice of a £16 Merlot from Chile (always a safe bet) appeased a rather supercilious sommelier. Comfortable but not inspiring

Mal Maison Brasserie, Manchester - Straight 10's once again! Small 21st birthday celebration, private room, lovely flower table decorations, excellent service from friendly & knowledgeable staff. An evening to remember. Thanks!
