- I'm in Manchester today. I've decided to take a trip down to James Martin's signature restaurant in the Manchester265 casino... I'm not here for the gambling, I'm here for the food and it's the first time I've ever visited one of James Martin's restaurants!

Awwh, thanks for this one. We went for my husbands 70th Birthday in 2019. James Martin was there and came over and chatted , he is so lovely and not a bit'starry', just a down to earth lad. When the bill arrived, he'd paid for our , not cheap wine. My Husband died in 2021. A very important memory for me, so I thank you again.
What a lovely story, and as you said, a wonderful memory. X
Wow what a wonderful memory Lauren. I’m so sorry to hear about your loss but please take care of yourself.
❤❤
Glad you enjoyed your visit and experience of both the restaurant and its chef/owner Lauren. I'm very sorry to hear of your loss. Thank you for sharing your special memories.
Every best wish x
God Bless you.
The most honest, respectable, likeable and down to earth chap on TH-cam. Gary makes the world go around. Be more like Gary
Thank you very much. You are very kind Joshua
Fantastic review Gary, honest as always and a throughly nice chap.Love it, and look forward to many more of your reviews 👍
It’s funny he’s just so lovable 🤗 I totally agree 😊
Totally agree. Top tier, as they say. 💙
he is a good soul.. lovely kind man and a great you tuber🎉🎉🎉
How can you not have a smile on your face when one of Gary's videos drop.
Thanks Gary.
😃😃 you are wonderful
The thing I love about Gary’s reviews s that he knows what he’s talking about but he’s not up his own backside unlike many so called experts! Keep it up Gary, we love it!
That is very kind to say thank you very, very much
Those little flashes of joy that pass over your face say more than words ever could
Thank you, this was fantastic
Great meeting you in Edinburgh last night Gary outside Deacon Brodies on the Mile. Thanks for stopping to chat with us and you’re just as engaging in real life as you are on your videos. All the best and good luck with the channel . Lee & Debs 👍👍
It was absolutely fantastic to meet you both thank you very much for stopping me and having a lovely chat, I hope you had a safe journey home and I hope to meet you again one day, I will do more vegetarian food, Lee and Debs 🌹🌹❤️
Very lucky to meet the man himself
I can honestly say I have no desire to ever meet any celebrity. But to meet Gary in our local pub would be best day ever!
Gary's comment section is the nicest group on the internet
Absolutely wonderful I must say
Glad to see that you were not let down Gary, James stepped up for the celebrities, good job mate.
Thank you Jason and he’s done a very good job
I've said this before but, you are the most honest, genuine and relaxed food reviewer I've come across on here.
Fantastic watch 👍
I agree! I've watched every review Gary has done and not one of them has him being anything other than himself. Other reviewers have morphed into their version of a Michelin guide adjudicator, trying to be too complicated and use stupid terminology. Gary says it how it is, and if it isn't up to par, that's what he says!
I know, even my kids know Gary and one only just turned three! He's so unintentionally funny but most importantly he's authentic and fair.
That is a truly wonderful comment to make thank you so very much
Wonderful to see you too 🎆
I'm smiling at the red car in the intro. Drives up, sees Gary then reverses, they must know you'll be dashing across the road at any minute 😉
LOL! I didn't notice that. 😅
😂😂 brilliant Rosie and always lovely to see you
Wasn't having the best day and just finished work to see this, can't wait to watch once home! Nice one, Gary
I’m so sorry about your bad day, let’s hope for better tomorrow
I'm a fan of the compact menu concept. Especially when the offerings are changed on a weekly/monthly basis. It cuts down on inventory and food wastage and allows the kitchen staff the freedom to be creative and inventive.
Couldn't agree more, gives me confidence the kitchen can cope with room for capacity.
Well said
@@GaryEats - must say that I'm very appreciative that you and "the cameraman" put yourselves through such tribulations for our viewing pleasure. It's a tough job! I'm glad that you're part of the team that has stepped up to the challenge and declared that calories are just numbers that get in the way of a good feed.
Yes, my brother is a head chef, he says that compact menus are essential.
Six by Nico is another good one for this. I hope Gary goes to the Manchester branch if he’s not done so yet 😊
There's nothing nicer than seeing a good and decent person do well, so long may you keep doing what you're doing, Gary, you make the dark days seem brighter.
Thank you so much
That moment when Gary tries something, hesitates - and then his face lightens up in a radiant smile, and you know; this one is a winner! 🙂 I'll never get tired of your reviews. I love love love your videos.
Thank you so much for saying that, thank you!
Good to see a Yorkshire chef deliver a a delightful dinning experience, thank you for sharing Gary.
Is James Martin from Yorkshire? I don't think I've ever heard him mention it
James done a good job
James Martin's is definitely an occasion restaurant. I think it would make for a very pleasant night on the town, a bit of gambling and a fine meal. I thought the food looked delicious, I personally would order a steak. It is also nice that they offered you a complementary drink for the mistake with the dessert. I am pleased to see that not all celebrity Chef restaurants disappoint. Gary really enjoyed the review.............Cheers.
Well said Daniel. Mistakes happen, their response was great!
There is also a really cool axe throwing place and a good comedy club nearby here. Had considered going here for food on a date night before and after this review by Gary I am sure I will add it to the list of places to visit.
@@danielproulx7288 but they did make a mistake and that should never gapoen at those prices, never
I’m so relieved that you enjoyed this Gary. After some of the celebrity places you’ve been to, I was worried you’d be disappointed. James Martin is my favourite chef and I’d have hated for his place to be rubbish. I appreciate it’s very expensive, but I’d pay it for a lovely treat. It would be something to always remember. xxx
He has done a great job Lyndsey xxx
Gary A Yorkshire man cooking great food in Lancashire Finally a celebrity chef produces the Goods Thanks mate from Ireland 🍀
Thank you so very much 🇮🇪🇮🇪
Another Fantastic review Gary and Son . Glad you finally found a celebrity restaurant that didn't let you down .
James done a good job, Philip
James Martin is in my top 5 favourite chefs when he does his Saturday kitchen live he seems like a real genuine man and doesn't make too much of a fuss. Great review Gary.
As a chef of 25 years, the first 15 being at the high end I can’t tell you how wrong you are.
@charlesbrown4941 Well everyone's entitled to their own opinions
@@charlesbrown4941 I think he's a pompous bell e*d.
@@gemmahandley9394 100%. If you go through some of the comments you will see my opinion isn’t unusual. Anyway, it’s not about JM, It’s about Garry’s reviews.
Thank you. Glad you like him!
De-li-ci-ous! Superb cooking!! Beautiful presentation! Thank you for taking us along. Much appreciated.
Thank you Sylvia 🌹
I’m glad you gave this place a good review.He’s one of my favourite celebrity chefs and have always found him a very genuine personality.As ever a great review.
Thank you Peter and yes he seems like a nice guy
Loved sharing that experience with you Gary and love your sense of humour. It all looked delicious but agree the portion of lamb was disappointing , especially for the price. 175k subs and growing!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you Wendy and I agree about the lamb
Hiya Gary. I always come back every few weeks for my gary fix. You're a top guy who never fails to cheer me up. Cheers for your honesty and by being yourself. Never change pal. Great review as always. Best wishes to you both. Marko from lancs!
That’s really appreciated Mark thank you
Cheers for your latest video, Gary. Love as ever to you and your cameraman, mate. Safe travels!
Many thanks and on the way to Scotland Paul!
*Food looked Exquisite- supreme quality- I do put James Martin as my top favourite celeb chef and this place definitely definitely has got top notch food 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌*
Glad you enjoyed it Glenda
I remember seeing him doing book signings yrs ago in Birmingham nec, good food show
Too shy to say anything lol
Now,there’s a full day out - full of free samples,hot,cold,sweet and savoury. Reckon,you’d love that
Nice to see a celebrity chef who cares about his restaurant and his customers , good to see James !!!
This is a great restaurant that’s for sure Mark
@GaryEats nothing like that in margate 😂
Oh Gary you are a card. That was brilliant. Cameraman did an awesome job as usual. The food did look amazing. Great score. Thanks as always Gary Take care.
Thank you so much
I like james martin too, his saturday kitchen days were the best
Classic, I enjoyed it too
As always Gary, great review !
Glad you enjoyed it Geoff
Always seem to be holding your breath when going to these celebrity chef restaurants, but James certainly delivered.
I think it was a fair criticism about the lamb portion size.
Entertaining as ever Gary.
Thank you and yes this was good
The restaurant seemed, from the video, seemed to have a lovely ambience. The presentation of the food was top tier. I agree that the portion of lamb seemed a bit meagre.
The overall price is a bit steep but you're paying for quality over quantity.
Great review Gary. Credit to the camera work and production. This channel just gets better and better and you've stayed true to your original style. 10/10
That is such a lovely and kind comment to make thank you very much. It is really appreciated.
A bit of a Martin fan so Very happy the Restaurant passed Your Let's give it a go Test Gary, As always..Great work
Thank you Steve
I know some people don't like these celebrity chef restaurant reviews but I think they're really important, they tell us which are worth visiting and which are tourist traps better off avoiding (Gordon Ramsay comes to mind..)
That’s very kind to say, thank you
My mother would have loved that pudding. It was her very favourite dessert. Happy memories!
I’m so sorry to hear of her passing Rose 🌹🌹🌹
@ She died many years ago, Gary, aged 92. A life well lived. She would have loved that restaurant- and the chance to have a wee flutter at the tables! 🥃
Gary your videos keep me going
Sam keep going you’re doing brilliant matey 👍🏼
Sam, I'm always looking out for you mate!
All the best as always 😊
Gary has the best job in the world. Thought it was a bit expensive for the size of the dishes but Gary enjoyed it so that's what matters 😊
I certainly do Greg thank you
My late wife and I used to watch James on "morning TV" and always felt that he came across as a nice person! (Your meal came as a bit pricey, though!). (Another great video, Gary, thanks for that!).
My kindest regards to you and your late wife 🌹🌹🌹
Gary, it’s great to see you’ve enjoyed the first 2 restaurants you’ve visited in Manchester. Like you mentioned in your video, whilst I have no problem with gambling / casinos, I would be hesitant to walk through the casino to eat at James Martin’s restaurant. Another great video which we’ve all come to enjoy and expect.
I think walking through a casino would be a bit of putting for many people
Cheers from Canada, always good reviews !!
Thank you very much 🇨🇦
I live in the Pacific Northwest and so will likely never visit any of the establishments you review, but I am always so pleased when you (and the cameraman) post a new review. Thank you so much!
Glad you like them! Thanks so much Robert
James is the top guy. It's down to management and great staff in the restaurant. I always enjoy your videos, Gary 😊
He is clearly keeping his eye on the restaurant
Yet another fair and honest review from the nicest and most genuine guy on TH-cam, not forgetting the cameraman of course! Your success is richly deserved Gary. 😃
That is such a kind comment to make thank you, Mike
@GaryEats meant every word Gary. You must be good as my mum likes you. She said you're always so polite, how very true.
Wow - all looked great - sticky toffee pudding is my favourite and that one looked awesome- great review Gary
Thank you very, very much
I like James Martin so I'm pleased that his restaurant didn't disappoint. I'd have say that, to me, the portion size looked good as did the food. Quality always shines through. Thanks for the video. Cheers.
Thank you very much for your wonderful comment
Thanks again Gary for your enthusiastic,honest opinion 👏👏
Thank you
Excellent review Gary! Food did look amazing and you and the camera man are so professional great channel x
Thanks Gina!
'Elegance' perfectly sums up James Martins' restaurant. The inside ambience & layout through to the presentation of each dish. Superb.
Thank you, Robert. I hope you had a wonderful weekend.
Great review as always. Food looks lovely Gary. James Martin is a fantastic chef. Keep up the great videos mate.
Thank you very much, Jack
I interviewed James a couple of times when I was with the BBC, nice guy and a great sense of humour and a fantastic Chef
That is wonderful to hear thank you for letting me know
As soon as you said you were having lamb cannon I knew you wouldn’t be getting a lot of meat. It’s probably the most expensive cut of lamb.
It all looked fantastic - James martin for all his flashiness with the cars and so on is one of the most genuine and experienced chefs of his generation.
Yes for me the best chef
That’s very true it is very expensive
Really enjoyed your banter Gary this used to be a regular spot for myself and my wife when we used to live in Manchester nice to see the quality of food and service is still top drawer ❤
Wonderful thank you Andrew and I’m glad you really enjoy it
After a usually exhausting day (long struggle with my dad’s dementia) I get home and cook for my partner and little girl. The little one usually watching something that would be considered warfare torture.
I bring the food in and say “can we watch something we all enjoy please” the little one “Gary eats”?.
She gets it. Keep it up both ❤✌️
I’m very sorry to hear about your dad’s dementia. I understand your situation, please take care
@ Thank you Gary. All the best to you and yours. We all love the channel.
Hi Gary. One of the best reviews you done mate! Greetings to you and James!
Thank you very much Christopher
As nice as the sticky toffee pudding looked, I would have been tempted to try the whisky bread and butter pudding. The food did look very delicious and I liked the way it was presented, the pudding in the delightful pot was a brilliant idea. Alas, my presentation skills are non existent - I just pile it on the plate and tuck in; I'm such a peasant at heart! Another marvellous and humorous video from Gary accompanied by the talented Mr. Cameraman - love to you both from Chirpy and Tania xxx
I should’ve had a different dessert on this occasion, Tania and Chirpy xxx
Been a busy day at work, now sitting down and relaxing while watching this great channel. Thanks for the upload Gary
Brilliant stuff Elliott!
Top man Gary always good laugh and great videos
Thanks Daniel 👍
Ha ha you loved that didn’t you Gary?!! Banging food, great ambiance and that dessert - bung it all in!
Glad to see you so happy and steady on with your £2 bet😂😂! Another great review boys, thank you😘
Thank you so very much, Carol 🌹🌹❤️❤️
Glad to see a celebrity chef restaurant actually deliver a good dining experience. Excellent review as always. Hope everyone is doing well.
It does make a change and thank you very much. I hope you’re doing well.
Came across your TH-cam a few weeks ago, Cant stop watching your videos. Great reviews and you come across as a great likable man. Love it.
Much appreciated!
Lovely to see another video ready for dinner this evening. Beautiful homemade lasagne. Let’s give it a go!
Hope you enjoy Leroy
Thought the presentation was amazing - that sticky toffee pudding looked epic - great review as per 😊
Thank you Karl and it tasted epic
The croupier looked like he could do with a good few meals lol, but seriously Gary, that was fun to watch and in our opinion, James joins James May in quality and ambiance. Fab review with the usual great humour, cheers 😊👍
I’m pleased you like this one thank you, Nigel
It’s always a good day when a new ‘Gary Eats’ vlog drops on TH-cam ❤
Thanks so much Rob
Just want to say guys. Amazing video quality…. Credit to you both. Also, as normal for you two, informative and helpful. Pair of legends. x
That is really kind and appreciated thank you very, very much xx
Always Appreciate your videos mate, Love Em!!
Glad you like them! Thanks Herbert
Hi Gary been watching your channel for couple of weeks it brilliant ten out of ten
Thank you very much Baz
You're creeping up on 200k. And I couldn't be happier for a TH-camr.
Thank you so much
Gary good to see you were not let down by another Celeb place. I do agree with you that the lamb portion was small so they could have added the potato dish to the meal. Great video Gary
Thank you Michael, a bit more and we are in business
Hey Gary m8, loved the review. The food looked excellent, you really liked the service, great job all round. Looking forward to your next find👍👍
Thank you Johnny!
As a fan, I must say Gary, that even though everyone loves that you reply to every comment, there is no shame if you had to reign that in. Alot of time must go into that. That you do shows your character, but given the increase in number, there is definitely, absolutely no obligation, and is even unreasonable of people to expect it! Just to put that out there X
That’s very kind Jack, I will do my best as always promised
I agree to this also, pls Gary don't burn yourself out, take it easy man
@@lisad8052he's hardly gonna burn himself replying to fans. 😂
@@GaryEatsJust admit it, replying to comments is your secret addiction 😅
I agree
The playing cards in the foyer was an excellent opportunity for a Brucie 'Play Your Cards Right' take off 😆
Haha brilliant Rosie. I’m in Scotland as we speak!
@ I think my 'Welcome to Bonnie Scotland Gary' banner must've disappeared into the ether 🏴💕
Really enjoy your assessments…keep it up!
Much appreciated!
Great video! Lovely looking restaurant and that onion starter and the potato rosti looked divine and don’t even get me started on that dessert! Love your review and as always you put a smile on my face ❤❤
That is so kind to say thank you very much ❤️❤️
Outstanding Gary
Loving your uptempo you are becoming the best food vlogger your confidence is of the scales
Great work great video 👍
That’s very kind to say, thank you, Tony
He's back! yes!
Hello!
Hi Gary I was relieved to see a good review after seeing Greeno was a fan of the other James Martin restaurant. He seems to be the best reviewed celebrity chef at the moment. Lovely stuff, that starter was something else! 🤓🥩🥂
Me and Greeno both agree, that’s a shock in itself!
Who?
@@GaryEats 😂😂😂
@@HowardOfficialGreeno Eats review channel 🤓🥩🥂
I don't think the cameraman got any of that food, Gary demolished it 🤣🤣
He certainly didn’t 😂😂
@@GaryEats 🤣
Only been subbed for a couple of weeks, but by far one of my favourite channels 🙌. You present it so well and in a chill way.
Wow, thank you!
Another beautiful review Gary! One of the special features of your reviews is that you give a clear view of everything on the plate. That makes for ideas when cooking at home. It creates some exciting combinations. Thank you!
That’s very kind to say, thank you very much
Visiting a celebrity chef restaurant is already a gamble😂
A big gamble… did it pay off?
Thank you Gary, loved it, but you promised me you would have cheese one day?? I would have with choice gone with the Mackerel, your main and cheese!! But no one takes me out so guess I'll settle for your choice! Again thank you both. 🌹🌹👍👍👍👍
Sorry Jacqui, I will get more seafood in the future
@@GaryEats Do not be sorry lovely, envious of watching you enjoy, would love to be there with you!! Wishing you a Blessed week. Thanks. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🤗🤗🙋♀🙋♀
Another great job Gary x
Thank you very much, Harry
Loving this channel !
That’s very kind
Gary ur the only person on youtube that everyone has nothing but good things to say about all the time n its no wonder such a lovely n honest gentleman great job as every single video is honest true and to the point 😊😊
That is so kind to say thank you so very very, very much, Kim 🌹
James Martin is an excellent patisserie chef and known for it.
The menu looks classy.
That bhaji I would love to try as it looks lovely.
Cheese and onion are a marriage made in heaven .
I love lamb and I do feel you should have had more for your pennies, but delicious anyhow and the rosti lovely.
A lovely venue and menu.
Thank you for an excellent review.
Have a super relaxed evening our lovely Gary and Son x 😊
£12 for a bhaji? That's extortion
A very classy location and I agree Maris, I think with more lamb on the plate then we were getting very close to a perfect 10 but I felt the portion let it down, thank you always x
I think as long as people keep paying these insane prices, the more these so called celeb chefs will keep raising the prices, I make damn good bhajis, I'm gonna sell them on street corners £3.00 each and make around 600% profit!
@@Heygoodlooking-lk9kg I agree it's expensive but it's different from the norm. I'd give it a go definitely. It's a one off experience 😊
@@Heygoodlooking-lk9kg I'm sure you do. But everyone is entitled to a treat now and again. Don't forget that if you sell your delicious bhajis to try include a cheesy sauce with them. Something very different for sure 😊
Thank you for visiting my venue
He wants more lamb. In case you missed it. 😅❤
Yeah right.
Not the real James Martin 😂 .
@@margaretconnery7422you reckon?
James, I visited last week and unfortunately caught AIDS. Can I have a free T-shirt the next time I'm in please?
My friend was on a cruise with a James Martin resturant... he was also on board the ship. He had reserved a table and happened to bump into him in a lift. He mentioned he was looking forward to his meal in his resturant, and got blanked by Martin. My friends a really nice/honest guy, and would not say this if not true. Just saying some people arn't always the person they present on screen. That aside, the food looked good. Love your channel!
That’s very disappointing to hear, some chefs aren’t the best
ive heard hes a pr**k
That’s the casino Wayne Rooney allegedly lost 500k in two hours in 2017
Yep. That’s about right for him. Pompous and arrogant.
@@user1974-uw3nxit doesn’t Surprise me at all , he looks a bad tempered Cuss !
Your channel is not only VERY educational, it is also most entertaining . A good sense of humor is such a massive advantage
That is a lovely comment thank you
Another fantastic review
Well done Gary
Thank you very much, Barry
Is Porterhouse what we used to call T-bone?
All them caliries will be down to the crazy amount of butter James Martin uses! 😂
Another great review mate 👍😃
In essence and thank you!
Porterhouse is sirlion and fillet I think
Porterhouse comes from the thick end of the tbone and there should be a bigger piece of fillet.
@@Lloyd1885
So is porterhouse- hence my question.
@@grahamdring1250
Thankyou.
I BET Gary likes this place
Why do you say that?
Not sure everyone realises that James is a classically trained chef, spending several years in old school French, classical restaurants. That's really hard work, and the skills and experience gained is second to none. One reason James has always been very respectful of revered chefs; Michel Roux, Raymond Bland, Pierre Koffman etc.
Thank you very much for the information Steve
Gary you are the best at what you do in my opinion because i know no matter what you will always have 100% honesty and transparency when making your wonderful content :). i am so glad i stumbled across you as you have been my entertainment for so many lunches in my work. Amazing review as always !
Thank you very much Callum
Gary that pudding looked so yummy. We are going to see James at Newcastle City Hall next year, next stop may take my mum to one of his restaurants, she loves him.
So Sobs good ❤️
That’s the best looking sticky toffee pudding I’ve ever seen.
It was absolutely delicious
Festive, again. I saw some place advertising local to me that they were doing 'festive dinner'. They now refuse to use the word Christmas.
yep i work as a printer/signage and was talking about this today but i guess at the end of the day we do celebrate the festivities🤷♂️
Why ?
Why?
Hi Gary! One of my favourite vlogs from Greeno was his review of James Martin's "The Kitchen", so very keen to see what you thought of James' casino restaurant.
I don't mind a compact menu, it stops me from faffing about too much!
The interior of the restaurant looked beautiful. I absolutely loved the bowls too. You seemed genuinely taken aback by how good the onion bhaji was! Could tell by your reaction & description that it was truly a stand-out starter. The lamb seemed a little light on the portion, but still a lovely dish. I love a sticky toffee pudding as well. That looked delicious.
OK Gary, this is another one for my list! Honestly at this point, I may as well just move to the UK! 🤔😅
Brilliant review as always. Your energy & enthusiasm is lovely & a nice bit of humour thrown in near the end there with your attempted gambling! See you on the next one & please stay safe on your travels. Take care. 🌷💙
Who?
I remember Greeno loved his and I really enjoyed it too. It’s even more surprising that me and Greeno ended up agreeing on something. Glad you enjoyed the video lovely Erin 💙💙
@@HowardOfficial Greeno has his own food review channel @GreenoEats. He is also a friend of Gary's.
@@GaryEats The food at The Kitchen looked amazing. Very expensive though, if I remember correctly. Thank you Gary & another fantastic review by you & Mr C! Thoroughly enjoyed it. 💙
@@Erin-Christine Thank you Erin. I’ll look out for him.
Great videos as always great review as always
Thank you Gary
Loving the manchester reviews, keep em up gary
Thanks Simon 👍
