the place looks amazing on the outside and the food looks good on the website, so we ordered online and sent someone to pick it up they said we couldn’t have the uber bring it to us and we had to go ourselves which was fine. The real issue starts when we go to pick our food up and for one they hadn’t even started making it, which would’ve added onto a longer wait period and they tried to make us show them out debit card as proof that we placed the order when we had an order confirmation from the website not just a picture. we ended up just getting a refund but this was a completely unnecessary experience save yourself some time and money and skip ordering online.

I’m extremely disappointed with this restaurant. The food was decent, but the way they handle billing is completely dishonest. They secretly add a huge gratuity to your bill no matter how small your group is — even if it’s just one or two people! There’s no clear signage or heads-up from the staff, and it feels like they’re counting on customers not noticing.
When I asked about it, the server acted like it was normal. Sorry, but automatically charging a 20%+ tip without telling anyone is NOT normal. Tips should be earned, not sneakily forced on people — especially when service is average at best.
I won’t be returning, and I recommend others check their receipts carefully. There are plenty of better, more honest places to eat.
I love Manhattan's NY Deli and Pub. Not only is the food and atmosphere great, but the staff and customer service are also amazing. I had an issue come up recently that I needed help with, and when I emailed, Mary was incredible. She was quick to respond and very willing to help. I'm so appreciative and can't recommend them enough!

Manhattan’s has been in business for quite a few years now, and it has shifted from being a fairly good deli and pub into an extremely active full bar with a very capable set of very skilled bartenders and a locally popular grill and sandwich bar suitable for large and small birthday parties—my most recent visit I enjoyed two birthday parties at once while sitting at a table for one. The french fries are very good indeed, and the onion rings look very appealing even from a distance. I suspect “you can get most anything you want” at this 21st Century “Alice’s Restaurant,” and the prices seem still quite reasonable. Noise level boisterous, but everybody is having fun! Plenty of parking in paved lots, and all access looks good.

Nice dive bar with a DJ after 9 (Saturday's). Drinks are strong and they have a solid happy hour through Saturday. Chicken nachos were good but would've been nice to layer the toppings between the chips so that the bottom chips get a little love too. We also ordered wings. Great crunch and flavor, cooked to perfection. They only offer breaded wings so that was a bit of a bummer.

Drinks ok
Food service Sucks!!
On Monday night lately, Manhattan's has been offering a meat loaf dinner that is amazing. If you get there and order it before 4:00 pm you get the lunch portion for $14.99. It comes with huge portion of meat loaf and a large portion of mashed potatoes. They also offer gravy with mushrooms. Really delicious. The happy hour drinks are really excellent at a great price.

I’ve partied in here twice, once just before the pandemic and again last night. Friday nights seem to have the perfect vibe for the R&B/Hip-Hop crowd. It’s not a large place, but it’s definitely worth going to if you’re in the Uptown or City Center areas.
The drinks are almost unbeatable. There’s no measuring so when I order a double, it actually looks and tastes like a double.
Also had a wrap from here for lunch on day. Amazing lunch menus, although I find it pricey.
If you go, ask for Chris to be your server. Chris is world-class. He's hilarious, he has excellent people skills and attitude, and he will make your experience 10x better. I went with a group of friends for a birthday lunch, and Chris was a comedian. Shout out to Chris!
Stopped by for lunch, and it was great! I had loaded fries w/jalapeño, bacon, and cheese, and I also got the manhattan wings. The portion size is really good too. Their Bahama Mama is the bomb!
The prices are budget friendly. Everything was greaaat! Highly recommended! The staffs are amazing. An ATM is nearby too.
Great food! Perfect place for a pick me up.
As a recent transplant from NYC this place gave me classic dive bar vibes and I'd be curious to check out the evening scene. Came for lunch and place wasn't super busy as it was after prime lunch time, staff was friendly and food arrived pretty quick. However my food was a bit lackluster, granted I got a burger and fries. The burger could have used either red onions or pickles and less salt, pepper, Adobo, or even some old bay would have been better. Same for the fries, I'm not sure what seasoning was used but all I tasted was salt and a bit of fish. Next time I'll try the Angus burger and see if that is better, but wasn't wildly impressed with the burger.
