Roots Restaurant & Bar — Restaurant in Manchester

Where to start, we were moved from our original table due to booking issues, we then ordered drinks plastic dirty cups came, we asked for glasses, the glasses were dirty with lipstick and other things, got new glasses ordered food and asked for starters and main to come out all together they did not, I asked for extra chilli in one dish it was not. We were enjoying the music and someone came to present the bill even though we hadn’t asked for it. Upon the bill we were billed for 2 grilled fish when asking about this they said it was the Prosecco.(please make it make sense). The bill was not worth the food as it had no flavour the jollof was not even spicy. Service was horrendous. Attitude from some of the servers was bad. 0/10 will not be coming again. Then to get out of the building the front entrance was close the side entrance was closed but with no warning I had to ask another customer how to leave whilst my Uber was charging me by the minute. Worst place to eat and for clubbing. DO...

I know Nigerians businesses don't know how to listen to their customers (which is why a lot of them up closing down) but hopefully ROOTS will take this review on board. The Asun itself is very tasty but the quantity for £6.99 is very poor.

I was given 6 small pieces of goat meat in my plate for £7 yesterday !! I cook goat meat myself and I can buy a full bag of goat meat for less than £5. The amount you're charging isn't reflective in how much you're charging. The puff puff we ordered wasn't sweet enough. Lastly, the Efo riro was below average.

To retain your customers please increase the quantity and quality of food we get when we visit. Nigerians want to support Roots, Non-Nigerians want to support Roots, if you're going to do something, DO IT WELL please.

Roots Liverpool already closed down due to lack of customers It would be sad for the same to happen to the...
