Manhattan Of La Jolla is a cozy restaurant with an old New York steakhouse vibe, featuring booths, red and black colors, and low lights. Located in the Empress Hotel, the service is friendly and attentive, with staff delivering excellent service. The menu offers a variety of options, including Ceasar salad, zucchini chips, and veal dishes such as saltimbocca, Oscar, and Marsala. Guests have enjoyed the filet, which is perfectly prepared, and the linguini with clams, noted for being exceptionally fresh and served with an excellent sauce. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a noisy bar area and quieter booths, creating a lively yet comfortable environment. The restaurant also provides corkage for $35 and takes special occasion reservations, making it a popular spot for celebrations. Guests often enjoy the fine dining experience, live entertainment, and the beautiful art that enhances the ambiance, creating a memorable visit. Staff members are praised for their energy, talent, and friendly treatment, making guests feel like family. While some dishes, like the lobster ravioli, may disappoint, overall experiences are highly praised, especially for those seeking a fun, vibrant atmosphere with excellent food and service.
