The Pasta Factory

Amazing food! Really Italian! Good laugh.good wine in a carafe. Good rabbit. Good beef. Good pork. All in good pasta. It was a good one and pasta is great

Amazing as always,fast and attentive service and love the new dishes. Had a delicious grappa to finish can't wait for the pizza joint to open

Fantastic service and excellent food, after visiting Italy 6 months ago my expectations were high and cynical and they were blown away, im also vegan so to have such a wide and interesting choice is brilliant, id say the only improvement would be the dessert ravioli would have been nicer as 3 larger rather than 6 tiny and some dark chocolate inside would have been perfect

The food and service were both excellent. Very attentive waiter. Felt like we were away on holiday in Italy. Great choice of beers and wine

Fabulous food, great atmosphere and lovely service. Great knowledge of food and beverages. Made for a lovely evening out. Highly recommended and enjoyed it greatly.

Staff were incredibly friendly and food was amazing! Food was reasonably priced and as a vegan there was a lot of choices. Menu was very clear and I can’t wait to go again!

A lovely welcome and pleasant service. The food and wine was delicious with an unusual selection of very good Italian beer. All of the pasta is exceptional.

Great food, great service, nice vibe. I’ve got to write 25 words minimum so nice wine, good size portions, if you’re going to get a desert go for the affogato ! It was amazing. Chocolate ravioli unusual.

The staff was friendly and we enjoyed the multiple vegan options. Look forward to returning. The bottle of wine complemented our meal perfectly. Easy to find as well.

The staff is extremely friendly and the meals are really tasty. If busy, the venue can get quite noisy but that's still acceptable. Great place, especially if you've got time (or want to take your time) as the service can be a bit slow.

Beautiful intimate restaurant with passionate, knowledgable and very friendly Italian staff. I was recommended the most simple dish on the menu, yet it was delicious and the best tasting pasta dish I had ever tried. Would recommend this place to everyone.

Cosy, down to Earth family-run restaurant serving one of the best selections of home made authentic Italian pasta and antipasti in Manchester. Friendly, knowledgeable staff and a laid-back atmosphere make this place special.

Excellent food and Service. A real find in the northern part of manchester city centre. Nice to find traditional italian food rather than the chain restautrants.

The service was brilliant. The wine was lovely. The menu was excellent for vegetarians. The dessert was absolutely delicious. A very nice atmosphere. We will definitely be back!

Simply delicious service great food fantastic best Italian meal I’ve had and the beer was amazing would recommend this to anyone and will do so for sure thanks the pasta factory for a simply wonderful meal

Food and service were both really good! The nice and relaxed atmosphere also made for a very enjoyable setting and didn't have to wait too long for the food to be served.

Excellent service from start to finish with fantastic tasing food at a very reasonable price. Loved the atmosphere and the open kitchen. Will definitely go again.

Nice meny, friendly staff. We where very pleased with our dinner and our beverage, nothing to complain about. It’s a very relaxed atmosphere also and for us that’s a plus!

Wonderful service and attitude from everyone there. Highly recommended with good food options and a well sized and priced wine list. Will return for more!

Really nice place with homemade food, they have special dishes of the day. It is better to book, at it gets pretty busy. I recommend it

Amazing restaurant with a lovely, varied menu. It was great to see so many vegan options on the menu. The staff were all great too!

Amazing food and vegetarian choice . All explained to us by the lovely caring staff who want you to enjoy we will be back for sure

Food was poor, and the dish i originally wanted wasn't available, but i was only told that when the waiter came to take our older. He then hurried us into choosing something else. The waitress then cleared our table after we'd eaten, but also took away our bottle of wine which we hadnt finished! I had the venison pasta, and it was far too rich, and very dry. Could've had a pasta sauce from a jar at home for a fraction of the price. Very disappointed after I'd heard such good things about it. Won't be going back.

Wonderfully helpful staff and very attentive. Delicious food, perfect for vegans and GF, and all the wine is vegan-friendly too! A lovely relaxed atmosphere - highly recommended.

Great pasta, cheese and wine. Staff friendly and knowledgable. So many things on the menu sounded great. Can’t wait to go back and try more

Excellent service! Waiter was super friendly and knowledgeable from the onset. Let us taste the lovely italian wines to help us pick. Food was delicious and fresh. Great options for vegans and a little shop where you can buy ingredients such as vegan parmesan and cheese. Definitely recommend and will most certainly be returning

The amazing Italian Pasta Factory is tucked away behind shudehill near to the Northern Quarter of Manchester! The staff are lovely, knowledgeable and guide you through the plentiful pasta dishes on the menu. Today I chose the special Gemelli Integrali con Pesto Di Nocciole made with wholewheat pasta hazelnut pesto aubergine and sundried tomato topped with vegan parmasan it was delicious! Washed down with an authentic amalfi lemon fizzy soft drink I would definitley recommend!:-) x

A cosy restaurant with good not over complicated menu choices - great food and atmosphere lovely staff and deli area also! Wine list is a little expensive but very good wine

Super food, drink and service, with a clear passion for what they serve and for bringing a little piece of Italy to Manchester. Highly recommended.

I've been here a few times and the service is exceptional as well as incredible food! Couldn't recommend it highly enough and it's reasonably priced too.

Amazing food, amazing service as always! Delicious vegan options and the staff are really friendly and knowledgeable. Great atmosphere always. Can't wait to come back!

Wonderful meal in a lovely little restaurant. My girlfriend and I thoroughly enjoy ourselves every time we come. Genuinely feels like a small piece of Italy in central Manchester.

Amazing experience every time. Thanks for the lovely vegan Italian food. Favourite restaurant in the North of England. Great staff, perfect food and an incredible atmosphere.

Fantastic rustic pasta dishes! No pizza, but that's not what this place is about. Home made pasta and bread - say no more......Really interesting dishes and superb vegetarian options. Excellent, knowledgeable and happy waiting on staff. PS. lots of Italians eat here!!

Mother’s Day meal with 2 you’ve kids. Staff were so friendly and weren’t bothered by how much food our 1year old dropped! Wife got a free Prosecco and flower. Food was spot on and the IPA was lovely! £50 for starter, 2 adult meals, 2 kids meals and a drink each. Reasonably priced food.

A lovely and very authentic Italian - antipasti and pasta were delicious and very filling - all washed down by great wine. They were also very accommodating for our 3yr old daughter

Great service. Great food - all 3 courses. Decent pricing. A little slow to be seated. House wine is great. Would happily go back again

The best authentic, non pretentious Italian I have ever been too! I was put off by the name and the logo and even my friends felt the same! But that is all forgotten once inside as you could be in Italy and the pasta, the wine and the service are amazing! The Vegan Parmesan is delicious 😍

Friendly relaxed atmosphere with excellent food and service. This is an authentic Italian restaurant with great pasta and ravioli dishes, advised to book a table, highly recommended

We really enjoyed our starters and desserts. Weren't so keen on our mains, loved the pasta but didn't like the sauces as much, but great sized portions. Shared a carafe of their red wine which was really nice and a couple of the lagers which went down well. Service was great, staff were really nice and welcoming and the atmosphere lovely. Bought a vegan Parmesan from their shop and I would recommend! Lovely evening all in all and will be returning.

Friendly with a great atmosphere would recommend and would return again , fresh home made pasta cooked to order , very knowledgable staff made the experience even better

Amazing food amazing service. Black ink ravioli filled with salmon is my favourite dish here. A must place to visit in Manchester. I would Definitely recommended this place!

Interesting choice of pasta. Superbly cooked and presented. For dessert I had ravioli do cioccolato mandorle e amaretti, a handmade chocolate ravioli - who knew chocolate pasta could taste so good! Relaxed atmosphere. Booked an early table, was told not to rush, encouraged to sit and enjoy the food and wine. Not many restaurants encourage this on a Friday night and we were grateful for this perk. Friendly, efficient service. Highly recommended.

Excellent service from knowledgeable friendly staff and superb food as always with a great choice for vegetarians and vegans. We want to come back for gnocchi at some point!

A lovely restaurant with perfect vegan options and home made vegan cheese, all wines vegan, the only vegan ravioli I have ever had. But we booked a table and brought friends and were asked to hurry and finish our meal as they wanted the table for another party. We were just on our deserts and this rather spoiled our coffees.

The best Italian food that I've ever had in my life - and my partner felt the same. Wonderful flavours I've not tasted anywhere else.

Food was great but there wasn’t enough space in the restaurant, had to rush in the end as there were some customers in the queue. Would recommend to go at the weekday instead.

Great food and a lovely atmosphere. Service was a little slow at times. Very authentic Italian restaurant within easy reach of the city centre. Would recommend.

Best Italian restaurant of Manchester. Servizio impeccabile e cibo di ottima qualità. La sensazione è di trovarsi veramente in Italia, poi il caffè servito con la moka è molto scenografico. Lo consiglieremo a tutti i nostri amici.

The atmosphere, staff (all the waiters were so lovely and cheerful) and food were all incredible - my one complaint is how cramped the room was. I'd have found the experience so much nicer if the tables were spaced out better.
