| Lounge 10 Restaurant Manchester - member's reviews |
"Top notch food, everything at Lounge 10 was cooked to perfection. I ordered the Steak Tartar to start, which was excellent with a touch of Bernaise sauce. Next, I ordered the Tuna and Salmon. Unfortunately I was told that the chef wasn't happy with the size of the salmon potions remaining, so they offered me the Sea Bass & Tuna instead, which I was very happy to say yes to, as orginally I couldn't make my mind up between the tuna/salmon main or the sea bass. To get a combination of both was a nice suggestion. Again when it came, it was melt in the mouth stuff. All in all I had a very good time at Lounge 10. The food was excellent, service excellent, decor is a little unusual (pictures of sexual acts) but don't let that put you off. Only negative comment is I thought it was a little too expensive... but at the end of the day you pay for what you get, and in this instance first class food = higher price." - stephen, bolton 24/2/09 (visited on a saturday evening) |

| "Eating in Lounge 10 is like being centered around a main staircase over 3 floors with little or no room for people passing to use the toilets. There were 21 of us on the bottom floor and they should never have agreed to take such a large booking as we were incredibly cramped and were almost sitting inside the kitchen at one end and the cloakroom at the other. The live music is one person with a mic going up and down the staircase, quite pathetic really. The toilets are communal and smelt of urine with a palm reader in there and a toilet assistant, not a huge room. I dont see what the attraction is myself its the worst £140.00 I've ever spent." - Lisa, Manchester 22/4/08 (visited on a saturday evening) |

 "We found Lounge 10 disappointing. Having booked a table well in advance and requested one that wasn't in a corridor (based on other reports) we were disappointed to find that we had been placed in a busy corridor. Everybody had to walk past us to get to the toilets and the waiters had to squeeze past to get to tables. As a result it was not romantic or relaxing as we spent most of our night dodging passers by. The food was OK but nothing special and the drinks were a bit pricey. The singer and table magician were excellent. All in all a good idea that doesn't quite work in practice. Not one we'll be recommending." - melanie, wigan 14/4/08 (visited on a saturday evening) |

| "After hearing good reviews, I've been wanting to visit Lounge 10 for a long time. That's maybe why I never turned around when hearing how loud (and bad) the live swing music was from the top end of the street!!! There's nothing worse than trying to have a romantic meal in intimate surroundings with a heavily amplified drunken crooner slurring away to a backing tape at the end of your table. But that's what gives Lounge 10 it's uniqueness. They're trying to recreate that 19th Century Parisian Moulin Rouge feeling. Live entertainment and sexy surroundings - paintings of naked Roman orgies, velvet curtains and candlelit stairways really add a touch of class. The food, whilst amazingly presented, was nothing special, yet incredibly overpriced. Even with a £20 discount using my Hi-Life card, the bill still came to a whopping £40 and that was for just 2 courses and one bottle of still water!!! The Mediterranean lamb I opted for wasn't a patch on the same dish being offered by Bacchanalia just around the corner. I'm surprised I could taste it at all after having my tastebuds almost cremated by the boiling hot Parsnip and Honey Soup starter. Whilst there may be many better alternatives in town for good food, for great surroundings, Lounge 10 would be hard to beat." - matthew, manchester 7/6/07 (visited on a wednesday evening) |
