We stopped by after the Fisher Cats game on a Sunday. This is a real local bar with your typical…read morepub food in a good way. We all enjoyed our food. My Turkey tips flavor was not to my liking but that could be me. I long for the days for a bartender with a personality. The two working seemed nice but going thru the motions. Could be we were a little older than the regulars That said, nice place to hang out and watch the game and mix with the locals

We were in for an overnight stay and wanted something close to our hotel. This place was literally…read morealmost next door. I ordered the spinach and artichoke dip and my husband had the Caesar chicken wrap. We walked over and picked it up. The place was pretty empty as it was a Monday late afternoon. My husband was okay with his wrap although it wasn't anything special. Mine, on the other hand, was not good. The 'dip' was not able to be dipped at all. It was thick and not at all creamy. The cheese was coagulated. The artichokes were in big chunks and I found some of the fiber pieces from the artichoke and the spinach was scant. the dip did not taste like it was seasoned. Then, the chips provided were burnt. I had to dig around to find maybe 5 that were not a deep golden brown. Next, they included a slew of thinly chopped raw vegetables. I had never received raw vegetables with a spinach artichoke dip. Typically the inclusions are like pita chips and small bread slices Additionally, because of the way the vegetables were cut, I wouldn't have been able to use them, even if the dip was looser and creamier because they were too thinly sliced.. After two bites that I had to use a knife to spread on a few chips that I could find that were edible, I threw it away. We don't expect to be in the area again. But if we were, this place was definitely a one and done for us as far as the food is concerned. The second star is only at my husband's urging because his wrap was okay for him.

Tried this spot for the first time and it absolutely did not disappoint. I got the gyro and my…read moregirlfriend got one of their bowls, and both were seriously so good. The gyro was packed with flavor, PACKED with meat, perfectly seasoned, and tzatziki sauce was amazing. Everything tasted fresh, and you can tell they don't cut corners with ingredients. My girlfriend loved her bowl too -- it was loaded, well-balanced, and just as flavorful. We were both honestly impressed with how good everything was, especially for our first time trying it. Definitely one of those places you immediately know you're coming back to. Highly recommend if you're even thinking about trying it.

Came in on a recommendation. SO glad we did. Counter service that was exceptionally wonderful…read more Spacious and extremely clean inside. Fresh flowers at the tables, which was a lovely touch. I split a souvlaki plate of lamb with my mother. They were so gracious to prepare us each a plate. Food is cooked fresh and to order. OMG everything was amazing! Fresh Greek salad, perfectly marinated lamb, extremely tasty rice pilaf. Homemade tzatziki with oh so warm and soft pita. We also ordered steak and chicken to go that was equally tasty. I can't wait to return. Plenty of parking. Wine and beer served.

It was 5/1/26 in the evening. We were visiting this cute, quaint town because my best friend…read moregraduated with her BS from SNHU. On every website we searched, Hooked was the #1 rating. That settled it; we had to try it. Out of sheer excitement or exhaustion, we forgot to make a reservation. I quickly remembered this mistake as we entered Hooked. People filled every table and seat at the bar. I looked at my bestie with great concern because we were anticipating our first meal of the day. The hostess welcomed us warmly, and then she asked the dreadful question, "Do y'all have a reservation?" We sadly said no, and she immediately began to express regret. Maybe it was the "Grad2026" headband or the disappointment on our faces that caused her to have pity on us because she told us to wait one second. The hostess walked to the bar, then she went to the main seating area, lastly she went next door where there's additional seating. She returned with a smile and motioned for us to follow her. The hostess found us seats at the bar! We ordered, chatted with the locals, and ate a delicious meal. We even made room for dessert which we learned was made by the owner, the hostess! Whenever we visit New Hampshire again, we're definitely stopping by Hooked!

I'm…read moreassuming the owner was the lady who came to tell me it was reservation only and there was nothing they could do. I was heart broken but it was my own undoing as I djdnt make a reservation. Just as I was opening yelp to find another place to try she came and got me from outside as a spot opened up! That's service! And I won't forget it. All the staff was very kind and she checked in with me several times during my meal to make sure it was going well. The ambiance is a little noisy but it's a raw bar that has sports on. The food is delicious. I could have eaten the Cippino forever! The broth was a complex delicious and perfectly spiced tomato base. The seafood was plentiful and large sized. I have never seen shrimp so big! I also ate oysters and had an amazing home made peaches and cream cheese cake. Listen I don't really like cheese cake but I could eat that cake everyday for the rest of my life. Everything from start to finish once I sat down. Was delicious and the staff was very kind. This food was fired fresh in the kitchen. I could see if from my bar seat. So if it took a little bit it was worth it! I'd eat here the next time I'm in Manchester 10/10

Consistently good Indian food!…read more I have been to a number of Indian joints in New Hampshire and Taj India is one of the ones that I have been back to multiple times. The staff are friendly, they are quick to take your order, ask if you need additional items, ASK how your meal has been, and offer dessert at the end of the meal. These may be common things expected at a restaurant, but you see this a lot less frequently these days. They are in a great location in downtown Manchester and have plenty of seating. I have have eaten in every time except one time when I had a friend bring me take-out while I was sick with COVID. The meal traveled extremely well and if I was in a bind, I'd certainly opt for take-out again. I have not experienced the lunch buffet, every time I visit, it is after buffet hours. However, I do hope to try it some time soon. I haven't been disappointed by anything lately, the biggest complaint that I had was when a Samosa had a cool core, but I do understand that some food has to be prepared in advance and I'd rather have a cool center than an overcooked exterior.

This review falls between four and four and a half stars…read more Delicious Indian food in the heart of downtown Manchester. Boyfriend has been wanting to try Taj for a while and we finally took the opportunity to stop in while we were in the area. The ambiance inside the restaurant is calm and quiet. The service was efficient and friendly enough. We got paneer pakoras, chicken madras, paneer masala and garlic naan. You can choose your level of spice on a scale of one to six. I ordered my madras to be a five and my boyfriend ordered six for the paneer masala. The pakoras and chutneys were solid. The naan bread was soft, pillowy and had a pleasant chew, making it some of the best I've ever tasted. I tried the paneer masala and enjoyed the richness of it, plus my boyfriend said the spice of it was perfect. I really loved the madras curry, perfect spice level and bursting with flavor. Overall a very good experience at Taj. We will definitely have to make a point to return if we're ever in downtown Manchester again!
