The Pasta Factory

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.

Booked this restaurant for lunch time for my friends birthday. The waiter was extremely nice. Very polite and friendly. Felt very personal and welcomed. Following that, the food was amazing. We had the vegan cheese and crackers starter which was so tasty. I’m not vegan but this was very well put together with caramelised onions and chilli jam. Definitely try it. Following starters we ordered a vegan pasta and a slow cooked beef ragu pasta. Both so authentic tasting. Really delicious food and extremely friendly staff/chefs. Definitely try it!

Food and service were both great! Would definitely visit again :) I was served the wrong plate of pasta by accident, and was then offered to have it replaced, which I declined. On hindsight this was probably the right decision, since I enjoyed the plate of pasta so much!

Super Good Food and an amazing service!! I will go there again, as soon as i will be in Manchester again! I can definitely recommend this restaurant!

Very authentic, great atmosphere. good service! The staff were enthusiastic. Also I recommend a carafe of the house red wine. I think I will visit again.

Excellent food and service. A rare treat for those of us that enjoy simple authentic Italian food without the formality and fuss associated with many other dining experiences. I'll definitely go again and will recommend to friends. Looks good for lunchtime treats too.

Had read good reviews which is why we booked, we weren’t disappointed and were very pleased with the meal & service. Will definitely be visiting again.

Very friendly, knowledgeable staff. Great food. Great value. Had a range of pastas all different all hand made all a credit to the chef. All this takes time but we were in no hurry.

Delicious food, finely balanced flavour, served with real craft and passion. Lots of vegan options clearly marked. The triangular ravioli had a wow factor. There a family run feel about the restaurant that makes it a gem for Manchester.

Attentive friendly staff that catered to my every need in a way that only a family run establishment can, Having travelled through Italy, I can say their food is akin to, if not exceeds, italian cuisine in the actual country.

Fantastic tastings food with a great choice plus a specials board. The service was excellent all the dishes were explained beforehand, I would recommend this restaurant and will definitely return

First time eating here and it was beautiful. I had gnocchi with speck and pumpkin voulete and it was just fantastic. Would definitely go back. Everything on the menu sounded amazing and the service was fab too!!

Great service. Friendly and, we felt, genuinely interested in us and the food. Surprisingly small which made for a great atmosphere and with Italians dining there, that must say a lot!

The best Italian meal we've ever had! Everything was just perfect! The food was delicious and the staff were very attentive but not overbearing. Will definitely be back! Thank you!

Lovely restaurant with very tasty food and nice staff. Family atmosphere, reasonable prices and lots of choice. Attentive and professional service, the waiter was really helpful.

Lovely rustic food. Excellent service. Will definitely go again. Enjoyed the ambiance and the staff were really helpful offering advice with the wine and the food.

Lovely restaurant, not as cavernous as expected from the pictures online. Very friendly staff. Good choice of food inc for vegetarians. Will definitely go back.

Superb, excellent - I could go on and on with compliments. Suggest you eat at this establishment and savour the flavours of whatever dish you choose. Staff welcoming, friendly and so efficient. Thank you for a memorable evening.

This was my first time to the Pasta Factory. There was amazing service all round. The food was perfect and will definitely be returning soon.

The pasta were all so good! We had the salmon, the proscuitto and the mushrooms raviolis. They were all extremely nice and good value for money. The staffs were awesomely friendly! Definitely a place I'll recommend

The waiter was very helpful and friendly. The food arrived quite soon after we ordered. The food was great and the lager was fresh and delicious. Good vegan options. Would recommend this place and go there again.

Lovely place to eat. Staff very friendly, great service and reasonably priced . If you love pasta this is the place for you. Everything cooked fresh.

Great restaurant with superb food. The atmosphere is ambient and not poncy; very much relaxed fantastic dining. All the dishes we sampled were simply sublime.
