You know it's good when there's a cue outside!!
We came here as a group of 7 so we had to wait a while for tables (Approx 30 minutes), luckily the weather is good!
Service is extremely quick and efficient.
Food came out nice and hot all cooked to a high standard. Good flavour, decent portions and good value for money.
I liked the atmosphere, lots of hustle and bustle but not ruining the experience.
Overall a great restaurant with a varied menu that caters for all tastes and top food!!

If you're looking for authentic Chinese food in Manchester, Happy Seasons is an absolute must-visit. The flavors are exceptional, the dishes come out piping hot and perfectly cooked, and the menu offers an incredible range of traditional Cantonese specialties.

We had the roast duck and char siu—absolutely melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The seasoning was spot on, and the crispy duck skin was next level. The portion sizes are generous, and everything felt fresh and made with care.

Service was quick and efficient, even when the restaurant was packed (which it usually is—a great sign!). There's a real buzz and authenticity to the place that makes you feel like you've stumbled upon a hidden gem in Hong Kong.

Highly recommend booking in advance or being prepared to queue—it's worth the wait. A true Manchester institution for anyone who loves proper Chinese food.

I came here on a Friday evening and had to wait about 20 minutes for a table - not surprising as the place is clearly popular. This is a proper Cantonese / Hong Kong style restaurant, and the no-frills interior instantly reminded me of eateries back in Hong Kong.

The food really delivered. The roast duck was spot on - crispy skin, tender meat, and a rich sauce that brought everything together. The braised beef brisket was another standout, meltingly tender and full of flavour. The salt & pepper ribs were nicely seasoned with a good crunch, but the star of the night was the stir fried rice noodle with beef. It had that smoky "wok hei" that's hard to find outside of Hong Kong - absolutely delicious.
Overall, the food here is authentic & If you're craving proper Cantonese dishes, this is definitely worth the wait in line.

Delicious, absolutely amazing. Would highly recommend to anyone who loves Asian food. Located in China town Manchester. There's always a queue & you cannot book but max waiting time is 10-15 mins so worth it. Staff very nice and friendly. Food is freshly made too

Delicious food and good food portions. We ordered the 4 dishes and couldn’t finish and have to take the rest in a takeaway. The service is fast.
