We get so tired of paying a fortune for dinner, only to be assaulted by the noise and the price tag. Not true at Manta Rey. Dinner was delicious, affordable, and oh so quiet even though there were other diners near us. We will definitely return when in the area.

Food was good service was horrible.Waitress was very rude never checked on us, once seemed to be bothered.If we have questions only waitress working seem to be bothered by anybody in the restaurant. We came from very far away to celebrate our anniversary and we had a terrible experience.Theres alot more nice places to visit around this area. Don't waste your time there.

The restaurant hours said it’s open on Monday from 5:00 pm. The doors were still locked at 6:30.

I had the seafood sampler. The seafood was fried perfectly, the sides however showed zero creativity. Tepid garlic mashed potatoes in the shape of the portioned scoop, nearly uncooked carrots and broccoli. A forced 20% gratuity because of our party of five, in an empty restaurant. Neither the front or the back of the cause seemed to care. Good luck with thinking boys!

Everything here is fried in a thick layer of batter, so everything tastes pretty much the same. The fish is nothing special. The main courses are brought when we are halfway through the starter…

We stayed at the hotel next door for a night on the road trip. Since we were very tired from the journey, we just went to the next restaurant without any great expectations. We were totally surprised! The service was very attentive and nice. The food was very good and fresh. The portions are large. Good food at a fair price!

More of an upscale restaurant. Lovingly prepared dishes. But maybe a little too warm and the portions too small. Nice location and enough parking spaces. Friendly staff.

Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp on the west side.
