Ya Koyo Restaurant — Restaurant in Manchester

11th/05. Coming from London my last visit with a group of friends was amazing so I felt like going back again. When I got there it was rather unfortunate there was some maintenance work going on. So, all orders were done as takeout. Not very familiar with the menu, I asked this kind young lady at the reception what they had. She tried to tell me but couldn’t list them all. she asked the cook on duty who was near what the specials for the day was. This cook was so rude I almost walked out she said to the lady “let the customer order whatever” but she said do we not have specials for today? they cook answered we have. The young lady “so what is it? . And immediately the cook got so angry and started screaming at her even the guys working at the maintenance had to walk up to the young lady and talked her to be the responsible person because the cook was acting so unprofessional. This lady came up to me and tried to apologise for the inconvenience very mature of her, I also heard the cook calling on phone to the person in charge and was lying about the lady meanwhile all she did was ask about the menu for the day. This cook might be good at what she does but she needs a lot of professional teaching to do. The 2 stars are just for the way the receptionist handle herself and tried her best to stay professional if not of her I would have walked out. The experience I had when I came the last time I felt so bad I did not have the same experience I just wanted to taste some...

And the restaurant smells of food, sitting there to eat in is not a good idea as you will be smelling of fish/food afterwards. They need to do something about the food smell, I know is restaurant but please do...

Okay so, I am a foodie, I literally hunt for the best places to eat wherever I travel, and I am very picky when it comes to my African food; so I searched for a long time and gave this restaurant a try. First of all: -the food is FRESH -it is REAL African food -IT TASTES absolutely amazing -and the PORTIONS are just perfect. The ladies there prepare everything from scratch, and mind you these dishes need time and patience to be cooked and these ladies don’t disappoint. I have found MY NEW AFRICAN RESTAURANT in Manchester. Give it a try You won’t be disappointed, if you need they’ll explain to you what is what. Also the place is modest but gives a little African ambiance that is worth...
