Manuela is a really busy spot. I was meeting someone there who got stuck in traffic and ended up 30m late for our reservation. Hostess was very nice, reassuring me they would hold my table, but she couldn't seat me first and let me start with appetizers while I waited because their servers only put the whole order in once. She said I could order a snack at the bar... Except there was no space available at the bar. When my friend arrived and we were seated, everything on the...
Food was solid! Service was clearly struggling (cocktails took ~25 mins, some of the party had to leave ~2 hours in when mains still hadn’t finished coming out and we had an event to get to, etc). Main warning, and reason I’m writing, is that the 20% service charge for parties of 6 and the blanket 4% staff service charge are exclusive from each other! Unfortunately a pretty disappointing dinner.
Manuela has a great ambiance and excellent service, but the food is disappointing. The rustic decor and outdoor seating create a nice setting, and the staff is friendly—they even gave us a glass of wine for our anniversary. However, the food falls flat. We ordered the cornbread, chicken, cauliflower, scallops, and cheesecake, and while nothing was bad, it was all bland and forgettable. Given the uninspired flavors, I wouldn’t recommend Manuela for a memorable meal.
