After hearing good things about La Bandera, and the fact it has catered for many Spanish footballers of the city, I decided to call in some food, taking advantage of their gluten-free selections and an ongoing 25% off UberEats promotion. I had high expectations which were not met. I really struggle to understand the hype about this place, especially considering how sick I became after eating here.I ordered the Acaymo Meal Box which is a chicken dish with a Spanish sauce and patatas bravas, firstly the presentation was a mess. It was all put together in a Spanish container, you could literally pick up the food and rinse it out with all the grease. The potatoes were soggy, the chicken was plasticy. I wouldn't even call the side dish "potatas bravas", both the sauces were very rich and sweet, and on the side, just the thought of them appears to knock me sick.The price of the food was good at first glance in £9.95, but considering I was given a giant mess and how ill I felt after, I wouldn't even dine here again if they were the ones paying me.I believe it is a disgrace that this place has a four-star food hygiene rating, they were found to be "Good" in two of three areas meanwhile "Management of food safety" was ranked Generally Satisfactory in their 2019 inspection. Not long after eating here, I began to feel very unwell with symptoms which went beyond my coeliac disease (why I have to eat gluten-free), I was told my food was gluten-free. I was violently sick not long after visiting, much worse than I have been in a long time. I was obviously poisoned by the business, even after just a few bites of food.I was also concerned to see young children in the business and I'm not sure if this had anything to do with the hygiene as they were obviously in and out of the kitchen and public areas, dealing with the children and going back.It gives me great pain to say this but La Bandera is one of the worst restaurants in Manchester and the fact I was violently sick and felt worse than I have in such a long time was the final nail in the coffin. This place deserves health inspectors pronto, as much as it pains me to do this especially during the struggle restaurants are going through during the pandemic, this warrants a place on my "Avoid at all costs" list and really is a disgrace.
