Moreover, the convenience of being able to make reservations added to the overall pleasant experience. In summary, Manuel's Mexican Restaurant offers a charming blend of exquisite cuisine, impeccable service, and a lovely ambiance. Without a doubt, it deserves a glowing 5 out of 5. An enchanting dining destination that leaves a lasting impression!
Manuel’s has a beautiful courtyard and it is so nice to sit outside on a cool fall evening. Service was great. I had shrimp tacos and my husband and friend both had the mole enchiladas, which I tasted also. Their mole is superb. Margaritas were great. We also had their coconut flan which was excellent.
If you are looking for upscale Mexican food, this is the place for you. Keep in mind, not Tex-Mex, but food from the interior. I had the chicken flautas today, a restaurant specialty. Just as good as ever.
We have been dining at Manuel’s more than 20 years. Never been disappointed. The Mango Daiquiri is one of my favourite cocktails in town. Their Sopa de Tres Chiles is delicious. Just miss their Happy Hour (disappeared since Covid-19)
Came here for Sunday brunch. Despite it being windy when we were here the weekend before, the outdoor area has a nice eclectic atmosphere. The waiter barely came by to refill water and no refill on chips. The food was delicious. I enjoyed the mole. Most of the items on menu seem a bit expensive for what you get. Maybe due to this being a local restaurant and not a chain? Because it is local, I would like to come back again for the patio and to try other dishes. Not sure when or even if the live jazz occurs as I saw it mentioned somewhere online.
We enjoyed eating at Manuel's. We spent around $250 for a party of four. Other than that the food was great, It was a great place for gathering. Manuel's offers great ambience to enjoy. We were able to enjoy the food and the hangout with friends. I definitely would recommend to check out Manuel's.
We had our company Christmas party at Manuel's and it was a great experience! I fell in love with the Mole sauce and will be back on a monthly basis for it. The service was also very friendly, accommodating and quick. Would give 6 stars if possible!
Manuel’s is one of the best restaurants in Austin for authentic Mexican food. We have eaten lunch & dinner there, been to happy hour etc. in the past. The food & drinks have always been fantastic! This time though, the service was severely lacking and hence the 4-star review. Our server Josue ignored our table so we had to reach out to him over and over! It seemed like after our server brought out our food, he couldn’t be bothered to come to our table because he was busy with other customers. We informed the manager about our experience and she gave us a gift card to make it up so we will be trying the restaurant at least one more time.
I read in the menu that the Wine Spectator that the enchiladas with mole is the best in Austin. I tried them and found them superb and order them every time I visit Manuels. The family members and friends have told me that their dishes were excellent too, but I see if I agree because I intend to stay with the mole.
We ate at Manuels last Sunday about 12:30 and it wasn’t crowded. The service we received from several waiters was exceptional.
Ambience is amazing, very classy. Margaritas, Chips, Salsa, all good.
The special entrees we tried, mixed feelings ... Few were very good (shrimp empanizados were good) nd few were very raw to our liking, maybe just us. But definitely diff than ur usual Mex Rest.
