Great restaurant. I wish your music was not so loud on the mall in the morning. It is too loud for your neighbors. Afternoon and evening, fine.
One of the best Mexican restaurants I’ve dined, including ones in Mexico! Fresh, light, flavorful. Amazing mojito with the perfect amount of lime. Fluffy rice. Smoky, cheesy cream sauce. Can’t wait to go back.
The food is amazing. The staff is wonderful and polite. I couldn’t recommend this place more. They are fantastic and helped to make my birthday special today!!

Based on the reviews, Manolete's Cocina Gourmet is a restaurant that offers a memorable experience with both highs and lows. The food receives mixed feedback; some meals are fantastic, like the steak burrito, chicken burrito, Tacos de Alambre, and the Camarones a la Diabla, which are described as hot and tasty. The fresh tableside-prepared guacamole and the ceviche are highly recommended as some of the best ever had. However, other dishes have disappointed, with salty black beans and pastor tacos on unheated flour tortillas. The service is a major highlight, with staff described as incredibly sweet, spectacular, courteous, and professional. The manager, Judith, is noted for running around supporting her staff and controlling the chaos. The atmosphere can be very loud, with people yelling over the music, leading to an overstimulating experience. Despite the noise and wait times, the variety of food and cocktails, including a recommended house Cabernet Sauvignon and a pineapple mojito, make it a place guests are willing to return to. Overall, it is a gem and a very well-run restaurant top to bottom.
