I first went to this restaurant with work when we had a meeting and I was very surprised at where we were going. As it wasnâ¬"t anywhere near china town I didnâ¬"t expect it to be as good but not only was it really nice but it was actually rather cheap. The staff were very friendly and the food was really nice and tasty and came out piping hot which is always a plus. The portions were more than enough and we were all really full, the price was good too, if it not for the location this would definitely be a lot more. I have been back since and will be going there again.]]> Tue, 30 Sep 2008 14:30:16 +0000 /review/uk/manchester/restaurant/1a13s72/tai-pan/1z6ne81742544919 citychick08 53.466808896169 -2.2304412520902 http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/manchester/restaurant/1a13s72/tai-pan/1w7dd8

I've been to the Tai Pan on two occasions and both have been in a large party of 10 or more.

They easily accommodated us in the lively restaurant. Though there were lots of diners, the spacious room was more than large enough for everyone and so you didn't feel cramped and crowded.

The food came out quite quickly and was delicious. There was also a lot of it so you will fill up. The only problem was being on a large table, the revolving circle bit on the table had to go around quite a bit to let somebody get some food, so it was a bit of a hassle but wasn't a major deal.

The restaurant is family friendly and we ourselves had two older children (7 and 9) as well as a one year old baby. The restaurant was loud so babies crying was drowned out by general happy chit chat in the vibrant place.

The food and drinks were reasonably priced. There are cheaper places to eat but the restaurant staff were excellent as was the food so somewhere as nice will be hard to come by. We could of easily paid double that at a restaurant of the same stature.

Overall, a very nice restaurant and somewhere we would come again.]]> Tue, 26 Aug 2008 15:13:02 +0000 /review/uk/manchester/restaurant/1a13s72/tai-pan/1w7dd82091641552 MJGB 53.466808896169 -2.2304412520902 http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/manchester/restaurant/1a13s72/tai-pan/1c95u7

If you go on the premise that the good places to eat are where the Chinese people eat, you can't go far wrong with this place.

It's hectic, busy, crowded but has all the authentic feel, flavour and action of a bona fide Chinese restaurant. And there's the supermarket downstairs too!]]> Tue, 30 Oct 2007 16:10:40 +0000 /review/uk/manchester/restaurant/1a13s72/tai-pan/1c95u71614549671 almostwitty 53.466808896169 -2.2304412520902
