Food is really well prepared and delivered well. The place is on the smallish side, but don’t let that fool you. The service is excellent and there was a line of people waiting to be seated the entire time we were dining. The wait time for us was certainly no more than five minutes. We arrive a little after 1pm on the Presidents Holiday. The wait for those arriving while we dined appeared to be about ten to fifteen minutes. The turn over on the table is about twenty minutes.

Tacos and Cheese Enchiladas are my favorite, but I really love everything I have had there and of course their Margaritas on the rocks are the best! The Staff are very friendly and the food comes quick, hot and delicious!

Although I never met Manuel, I am grateful to the owners that I did get to meet, Leonardo and Patricia, for being so good to their employees. I have only been a part of Manuels for a little less than two years and in this short time I have been treated like family. Thank you for everything, and thank you for the Christmas presents!

Fantastic restaurant, food and people. One of our few favorites. Food tastes clean and does not bother my stomach. I had cancer and chemo and radiation for years and my stomach sensitive. But this food is so good on my stomach! Thanks so much to Manuel’s!
