Yane

You'll find Yane tucked away on Wilbraham Road in Chorlton, where it's quietly become one of Manchester's most respected Japanese spots. Walk in and you're greeted with an unpretentious atmosphere—stripped-back, focused, the kind of place where the kitchen's doing the talking. The menu moves through classic Japanese dishes executed with real care: think precise sashimi, beautifully balanced broths, and skilfully grilled items. With a 4.9 rating across 308 reviews, locals have clearly worked out what's good here. It's the sort of neighbourhood restaurant that punches well above its weight, and once you've been, you'll understand why people keep coming back.
