“Awesome little place in Folsom! My co-worker and I were looking for something unique to the area(we were in the area for work).
We kept falling short on finding anything near our hotel, until we stumbled across Manderes.
Atmosphere is super chill and seemed like a favorite with a local vibe. They were super friendly and welcoming.
Our appetizer was the bruschetta, and it was top 3 I have ever had.
We both had a pasta dish from the special menu.
5 out 5

Also had a pretty awesome tap selection, mainly local, with a few other common micro brews.

If we go back to the area, we will definitely make a stop again.“

She picked the aioli spicy chicken sandwich (I would have picked a burger). I am glad I did. I was able to enjoy something delightful I may not have ever tried. Definitely a food stop in Folsom. I found it by looking at reviews. Represa Grill had the highest rating and well deserved.“

“Fantastic food the way that they cook the meat is divine. All their vegetables and sauces are amazing.
I'm not really a big fan of having to go to the counter to order and then have it delivered to the table. I like full service.
The people who do bring your food have just the right amount of attentiveness and leaving you be to do what you came to do.

The atmosphere could use some improvement I would rather see them look more like Urban Eats . It looks a little pedestrian somewhere between a California Chicken Cafe and a Raising Cane's. Those places are great and they both have good service but the atmosphere is for what type of restaurant it is which is pretty much not fine dining but just good food fast.

Haha it's not a Chuck e cheese or anything I don't mean that... I just mean the lighting could be a little nicer and maybe it would be good that you don't see the drink machine for refills right out the gate and maybe just not white walls with a few pictures but like something more... relaxing? Inspiring?

Slightly lower lighting with maybe soft white rather than harsh white. Just a little bit more work on the decor. The tables aren't bad.

The outdoor dining space is nice. I guess I would just like the whole decor to be a little less fast food looking because they really aren't fast food. They are healthy delicious food. When I was there it was really busy and it was later in the evening so the place is a hit. Definitely worth going.“

“We have been going often for the past few months . One of our fav dishes was getting the Wedge salad and splitting it and getting the beef sliders which were delish . Went the other day to find the beef sliders are off the menu and replaced with braut slider , sorry disappointed in the dish . Will have to go back to our previous restaurant to get our sliders . We also tried the chicken n waffles , they lacked flavor and the waffle was a soggy mess , serve the syrup on the side so the waffle stays crunchy . The flavors seem to be lacking lately , salt goes a long way in adding flavor to a dish“

“PERFECTION! My wife and I have been meaning to try this place out for quite a while, but we end up going somewhere else. We FINALLY popped in on sunday, holy cow, the food was AMAZING. The cheesy pull-apart bread, beyond good, it was like crack. The pot stickers, house-made, and the best I've ever had. Not by a little, by a lot. My ruben sandwich was 10/10... best I've ever had... it displaced the previous first place from 20 years ago in New Orleans. My wife just had a salad, but it was a monster, super fresh, and had a ton of blue cheese crumbles on it. This dinner we had, it was destination grade, and there's no place we can think of in 50 miles that even comes close. You can tell they use top notch ingredients... just sooooo good. Wait staff was super friendly, it was just so good I can't even say it enough.
We'll be coming here a lot!“

“I came for the veteran's day meal with another veteran in my party. They allowed us to pick anything from the menu as long as it didn't exceed $20 and they gave us each $10 in play. So the deal was pretty good. The food was free but the portions were very small. If I was paying for it, I would have been slightly irritated because of the price. But for free, I couldn't complain. The service was pretty good, our server was doing multiple things like sweeping, so it wasn't the greatest but he did a good job. The manager was also friendly and checked up on us as well as other tables constantly.

I didn't play any games but I will next time to check it out this location's games. There were too many kids running around in my opinion for a place that is targeted towards adults. I've been to many locations in Southern California over the past 15+ years and NEVER seen so many children at a D&B location. This place isn't a daycare for kids, there's also gambling games and a bar, with kids running around unsupervised while the parents are drinking and not paying attention. They should make this location 21+ only if you're outside the restaurant dining area.

Parking: Parking is difficult to find since they are doing construction in the parking lot.“
