El Manchego Restaurant

My first time here. We ordered 5 appetizers and 2 sangrias for lunch. The bill was $144.00 just crazy. The food was really good but they really got me. I won’t be returning any time soon. Hell no.

Completely subjective review: excellent food, very kind and thorough staff. Live music is so loud for so many hours, your ears will be ringing. If there is any suggestion I could impose would be to lower the volume to a more reasonable level so patrons can still carry a conversation without screaming. If you suffer from auditory over stimulation, then this is not the place for you.

Absolutely incredible experience from start to finish! The food was outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The entertainment kept the atmosphere lively and fun all night long. The service was top-notch; every staff member went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. And the owner, Tomas, is truly exceptional—warm, attentive, and clearly passionate about what he does. Can’t recommend this place enough!”

I really liked the food here, very good flavors and the service was great . Signed : the pikachu hoodie boy

The food was amazing, the Chef is definitely from Spain with a speciality in Galician food tapas. The staff a very friendly and welcoming.

As a former Chef, I definitely recommend this very cozy culinary trio to Spain.

I had a wonderful time visiting El Manchego on Friday. The food was delicious, and the live singing made the experience even more special. The singer was really good and the atmosphere was lively and authentic.

Services was very friendly but I ask for three entrees and we received only one.They forgot the other two.
The term of the steak was not correct in both plates and no tasting . Crema catalana wasn’t bad for maybe another kind of restaurant but definitely no for Spain restaurant like this one and tips are included in the price as mandatory , oh in addition the bread at the beginning is not for free. They ask if you want it before I saw the menu, but they never told me that is not for free

I am pleased to share my experience at Manchego Restaurant so that others may have the opportunity to enjoy this magnificent restaurant. Small but very cozy, with excellent service and exquisite food. Staff are dedicated to serving and delighting their customers with the love and dedication that only family can provide. What can I say about the chef... his dishes! All are divine in flavor and texture. They have a wonderful singer who entertains with songs that make you remember, dance, and enjoy an unforgettable evening in this cozy place. I recommend Manchego Restaurant if you want to enjoy good food, good music, and attentive service.

Great food we also had the marisco paella. We lived in Miami for over 15 years and never I have experienced the stares we got from the patrons. Yes my husband is not of Spanish descent but I am. The restaurant is intimate and cozy not many tables and was not busy on a Sunday evening. We were greeted by the host and was given a choice where to sit. The server mentioned that bread would be brought out, we waited and waited. Another server came and asked if we were ready to order but I mentioned we hadn’t received our bread, we got it but without butter after a while we had to ask for it. Now you may be asking why such petty comments….hold on I’ll explain. There were 3 servers in total with a party of about 10 for a birthday party. But we felt like unless we had food coming to the table then the attention was lacking. The server was packing up some to go food for the big party of 10 and commented laughing, “don’t take the food ok” I was like why was that comment even necessary ?! The youngest of the servers noticed we were trying to get the attention of our main server while folding linen napkins at the table next to us. After a few minutes she decided to ask us what we wanted, my spouse speaking the Spanish he can asked and she repeated very loudly and super fast the order. I glanced at her and said yes that’s what he ordered. We often had to flag down any server to ask for something. We also noticed that the servers packed up to go boxes for their customers but we were not given that choice. Gestures as I have described really are noticeable when you take note how other customers are served. I understand that everyone has their own opinion on how things may have been handled but this was our experience. We loved the tapas and the main course, oh and the cortadito was great! The live entertainment was lovely. But we have to say unfortunately we will not be returning to this establishment.

The ONLY reason this place is open is because of the show. Outside of that the service is beyond disrespectful the fact that we have servers who come to the table and get mad and show faces and roll eyes because my table only wanted six beers two soups and one dessert is wild.
Not to mention that they don't have change. SO DONT EVER BRING CASH
THE MOST RUDEST PLACE EVER
