A new menu full of future classics at San Carlo

San Carlo is a Manchester dining institution. We don’t follow fashions; we serve the food of Italy that we love and changing our menu is not something we do often.

But when we do change our menu, you know you’re in for something very special indeed.

We are very excited about our new menu and we can’t wait for you to come and try it.

We’ve strived to perfect the new dishes and bring you a taste of Italy by using the best produce we can find and letting it speak for itself.

The new menu is full of future classics, featuring the freshest fish and seafood dishes, big flavours and fresh cuts from the grill and some outstanding new pasta dishes that are both delicate and dramatic.

Book a table for two and enjoy one of our spectacular new sharing dishes: a 1.2kg bone-in tomahawk steak with a rich intensity, a luxurious Chateaubriand - all exquisitely tender fillet steak or our new ‘gran pasta’, spaghetti granseola.

This dish is a star of the new menu and a worthy centrepiece to any table. It’s a huge helping of silky spaghetti with hand-picked Devonshire crab, San Marzano tomatoes and chilli – and a giant crab on the plate.

Other new dishes include tonno e lenticchie, charcoal grilled yellowfin tuna with tomatoes and lentils, salmone Prosecco e gamberetti, pan-fried salmon and prawns with an indulgent Prosecco sauce and giant prawns and scallops cooked in a thermidor sauce.

With a reputation for sublime seafood, we had to include these special dishes on our new menu.

The new menu means that a meal at San Carlo is a whole new experience – but one that is still a guarantee of the highest quality.
