I ordered from this place in August for a birthday. Manuel took my phone call and he was so helpful and even sent me the menu and recommended me about the portions. The food was delicious, portions are huge and they have good prices.

Delicious food, friendly services, generous portions, fair pricing. As others mentioned, its location may not be the best but the food is great. They know got to feed their customers, it definitely hit the spot.

I don’t normally leave reviews on food spots but today for lunch I went on Uber eats craving steak and found Manny’s. I was super iffy but after reading reviews I realized maybe I should just give it a try. I’m currently eating my steak and peppers and it’s so delicious. Exactly what I wanted and hit the spot entirely. If your looking for some good Spanish food this is your spot don’t hesitate because there’s a few bad reviews they must be haters cause coming from a fully Puerto Rican family this meal is amazing even the packaging for ordering out is nice and packed in. Delicious!!

This food was absolutely incredible! Every bite was packed with flavor, and you could tell it was made with fresh ingredients and care. The portion sizes were generous, and everything was cooked to perfection. The service was fast and friendly, and the atmosphere made the whole experience even better. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great meal and a welcoming vibe. I’m already looking forward to coming back!

WHOEVER LEAVES BAD REVIEWS ARE BUGGING!!!! This food is BUSSIN!!!!! It's located in the hood but the food will blow your taste buds, definitely recommend visiting. This is a Gem, service and prices are great and food is three times better. I got beef tips and veggie rice and it's a whole orgasm

Delicious food. I ordered takeout meals of oxtail, chicken, pork knuckles on spaghetti and red beans & rice. Friendly ladies behind the counter helped me order with my mix of English and poor Spanish from high school years ago. The corner is a little scary with people who are probably high loitering, as other reviews have mentioned, but there is a stream of customers entering and leaving without being bothered. I would have no problem returning during the lunchtime rush for takeout.

Delicious Dominican food, the people who work there are very very kind and pleasant. It is also very economical. The neighborhood unfortunately looks a bit rough because sensible and use caution but support your local mom and pop businesses.
