Manuela is a very cozy restaurant in Soho with a warm atmosphere, excellent service, and truly delicious food. The quality was outstanding, and the staff made us feel welcome throughout our visit.
While the menu is definitely on the pricey side, the overall experience made it worth it. We had a lovely time and I would gladly return. Highly recommended.

The restaurant had great staff, stellar service. And the half chicken was really tasty. Even better were the desserts!! Highly recommend. Especially nice for a more quiet restaurant with great acoustics for a conversation.

Great interior design, not crowded, and low music (excellent for talking). Loved the dessert! The lamb and scallops we had wasn’t the best in the world, but I feel like other pros of this restaurant still mame this a top choice especially for catching up with friends or coworkers/professionals. Although if the owners read these re views, I would really work on making the food more unforgettable- I didn t want to dock down stars for this as the space and other qualities is very cool, but if the food was more mindblowing - I think this could be one of the best restaurants in nyc.

I’m not sure why it wasn’t busier. We ate Sunday brunch here and it was bonkers-good! The physical space is BEAUTIFUL, and the food is super creative and absolutely wonderful. Not your typical brunch but a new forever entry in our NYC rotation. You won’t be sorry. Have the donuts!! And the biscuits! And (believe it or not) the farro!

Quite stunning on the inside. I guess the owner of Hauser and Wirth (art gallery) owns this place? it’s filled with beautiful fine art and furnishings, tons of natural light and a fabulous bathroom downstairs. Really big inside as well.
We came for lunch - had the crudités and Cherry tomato salad to start. Simple, fresh and light. Cocktails were juicy and fresh, I got the TLC. Burger was perfectly cooked, but rather messy and I wish there were an option to get frites on the side instead of the lettuce it comes with, since we already started the meal with a vegetable.
Overall, everything was quality, simple, and well prepared but nothing really to write home about. They were able to accommodate some food allergies at our table as well, which was greatly appreciated.
Best part was honestly not feeling rushed by the staff. I came here with a group and it was nice to really catch up with each other without feeling like we need to leave. Great place for larger groups and nice lunch dates.

What lovely fresh food prepared with a sure touch with flavor
If you’re looking for a fun, happening experience with solid food choices and excellent service this is your place. The menu was very creative with options for all (vegan, pescatarians, carnivores).

Delicious food - probably one of best I’ve had living in this city for past 6 years! The art and interiors are whimsical; great environment for brunch.

The restaurant was freezing, I set with my coat on. Service was painfully slow, it took 30 minutes for the bread to arrive. Food also arrived cold. We told the waitress but she wasn’t too concerned. Won’t be returning

Where do I begin? I know for my friends and I we had a ball. I am confused as to what people are complaining about LOL. This place is not only gorgeous but the service and food are great as well. In the heart of soho, we decided to have dinner here Monday night. It was easy to set a reservation. We were greeted warmly , our server for the night was Cory. Cory was awesome, he was very helpful when it came to breaking down the items on the menu. First things first the biscuits delivered straight from heaven!!! Order them ! So warm, soft, and flakey. It comes with butter and a side of prosciutto if you want. I want them right now as I speak! Next we ordered the shaved fennel salad , my friends enjoyed it. A bit too bitter for me. Next were the oysters, those were so very good! Easy to eat and tasted marvelous!!!That citrus mignonette on point! Now for the mains, we went with the swordfish, bass, and chicken with a side of broccolini. Let's just say the swordfish was my favorite and that is not what I ordered lol. All of the dishes were very good and well crafted. They tasted as good as they looked. We ordered a great bottle of orange wine to go with our mains the perfect pair. Because we were stuffed we passed on dessert, but we will be back for sure! My only request is to not give tickets for doggy bags , we had such a good time we forgot to get our doggy bags. Bring the bag to the table so we do not forget our good food! I was devastated when I got home and remembered lol. All good we had a great time !!! Ohhhh and the playlist was superb!!!! so please go and enjoy this beautiful establishment!!!!!

The food and atmosphere were great, but I’m very disappointed with the service. My bill was $200, but they mistakenly charged $300 to my debit card. They said it would be refunded, but two days have passed, and I still haven’t received my money back. Additionally, I ended up paying the bill twice: $300 on my debit card plus the corrected $200 bill. In total, I’ve been charged $500.
