    We visited Manny’s three days in a row and are not even staying at The W! We had lunch twice and were so impressed that we’re having dinner tonight!!! The food was outstanding, and the service was top top notch! Kudos to our busboy Louis, one of the hardest working people I have met, and our waiter Jorge and waitress Catherine! All of these staff members were very hardworking, professional and friendly and made our experience exceptional. Kudos also to the manager on duty Greg Williams for helping us secure our dinner reservations and appreciating our comments.

    Hell’s Kitchen was a great experience for me and my girlfriend. The server was amazing she was very attentive and even asked if we had any questions as well as offered recommendations. Food was amazing honestly we were both going to come for just burgers but ended up getting the bison birria tacos and the steak. Drinks were good. Ambiance was great with the outlook of everything. Music wasn’t our choice of music but nonetheless was a great experience all around.

    Pizzeria Lola was awesome. The Lady Zaza pizza was very good, along with the mushroom toast appetizer, followed up with ice cream and cookies. Our Waiter was excellent and can’t wait to go back.
