About this business

Not worth the price – I went this weekend with a party of 4 and I was not too impressed. The food was good, dont get me wrong. But it was not worth the $120 i dropped. The mole was ok, I have had better. and the chile relleno was average. i want this place to work but I dont see going back anytime soon unless I go for drinks and the patio, No dinner please. Also, the guy at the door needs to get more organized. he literally called us to our table 3 times only to have us go back becuase he was wrong. i swore there was a hidde... read more
Always great, beautiful restaurant – Dependably excellent food and courteous, attentive wait staff. Absolutely the most perfect patio in Austin. We've been going here since it opened, probably once every week or two. Some of these reviews are just out and out lies, or maybe vindictive because they WERE drunk and needed to be shown the door. Manuel's is a very nice restaurant, with the most gracious management of any restaurant we frequent. We've been here at least 100 times, and we wouldn't be there all the time if there wer... read more
DISGUSTING SLOP – Sorry, but this is not even close to decent mexican food. I had the enchilada suizas which were not even edible. My daughter had the guacamole tostadoes....only had black beans from a can and lettuce. Where was the guacamole?.... Should have went to taco cabana....better food at a better price with a little flavor....Please if anyone reads this save your money. People talk about what great drinks this place has.....well they have tp be drunk so they dont have to taste how crappy the food is......
Worst Service in Austin! – Ah, Manuel's -- a neighborhood restaurant in my neighborhood that is not so neighborly. The food is not terrible, but at these prices the service is what knocks it down to one star. After many, many visits all I can conclude is that the general manager is either a Mormon or generally opposed to alcohol, as the wait staff appear to be instructed to not oblige patrons' desire to consume alcohol. As noted in other reviews below, you have to either hunt down the wait staff to get a drink or seek out th... read more
Best margaritas, fabulous happy hour – This place has the best margaritas I've ever had (house rita on the rocks with salt). Also, they have happy hour every day from 4-6, when all appetizers are half price (in addition to drink discounts). Three apps between two people is a meal. So great food, great drinks, and a good price. If you do want something off of their regular dinner menu, nothing on it has ever disappointed - the Relleno del Mar is an exceptional treat.
Pricey...yet dissastifying – the food was just ok. I had two small tostadas for $10.50. The best I can say was the lettuce was beautiful. We received our check, paid the bill, left cash for a tip. When I checked my bank account later, I found out they had added a tip without our agreeing to it. i would not go back to Manuel's nor would I recommend it to anyone else. VERY overpriced for the food.
Best happy hour in Austin – Manuel's has happy hour from 4 to 6 every day! The appetizers are 1/2 price and they aren't smaller portions than what they regularly serve! It's the best deal ever! I can't believe that anyone would go anywhere else. My friends and I are making it our regular Friday happy hour spot.
LOVE IT! – I freakin' love this place! The drinks rock, the food is delicious, the servers are a hoot and the patio is kickin'! If you haven't tried this place, check it out. It's right next door to the movie theater so you can stop by after seeing a movie or to have dinner beforehand.
WORST OWNERS TO WORK FOR!!!!!!!!!! Please be extremely careful when reading the reviews for Manuels. The owners under the threat of termination have instructed each server to write a positive review in order to increase sales. First of all Jennifer, who just happened to marry the original owner Greg, is in charge of the marketing department. Enough said!!!!!!! It's obvious to anyone who has come in contact with her that she's not exactly the sharpest tool in shed. Actually, her IQ probably isn't greater than a peanut. The ow... read more
