    Everything was close to perfect. The host staff was able to accommodate a change from a birthday to an anniversary. Service was amazing and the food was perfect. This was visit 2 for me. And visit 1 for my significant other. The waiter never asked if we had eaten there before and never gave us the in-depth food thing talking about all the meats being prime grade and such or going through the ingredients for the dishes. Noise level was not bad. If you want a booth I would recommend over the tables. Overall though I would go back again.

    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.
