Harden's says
From Gloria in Milan to Barracuda in Barcelona, France's Big Mamma group continues to storm Europe with its brand of maximalist retro fun-spots. And where better than the new St Michael's development off Deansgate to launch ’up North (there is already a Corcolo Popolare in London… and Madrid for that matter). It’s big – 280 covers – and aims to "take guests on the ultimate celebratory Italo-escape" with a "buzzing jasmine-clad trattoria… inviting you to a huge alfresco festa on the hedonistic island of seductive Sardinia" complete with "twinkling festoon lights sprawled across the eucalyptus-clad ceiling of the wild overgrown courtyard floor". Well, that's what the press release says anyway. On the menu pizza or sharing plates or burrata or prosciutto. There will be a "three litre amaro bottle that's circulating the room" – sounds just the job for central Manc.

Not enough people have commented yet
Our reviews are based on an annual survey of ordinary diners which runs in Spring each year. But this establishment has not yet gathered enough feedback for our editors to write it up.
Do you think it deserves to be better known?
Write a quick review now using our restaurant diary service. That way it might catch our attention. Next survey, you can transfer your diary entry into our survey system. Everyone who contributes 5 or more reviews in our survey will qualify for a free guide.
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
