Hit the spot perfectly

We were looking for someplace to get some lunch and Trip Advisor lead the way with Manuel’s which was very close to us. We were quickly seated and provided with a heaping basket of chips and big bowl of salsa. Luis introduced himself and collected...our order. We went with a quartet of street tacos and an order of taquitos. The food did not take long to arrive and I will have to agree with Luis that the steak tacos are the real deal. The real surprise was the taquitos. So soft and flavorful on the inside, yet crunchy with a discernible flavor. So often the shells lack flavor but not in this case. In and out in 30 minutes for under $20 bucks, feeling completely satisfied..... priceless.More

Delicious

We decided to try this place and to my surprise it was delicious. They have really good mexican food. I had the green corn tamale and cheese enchilada with rice and beans. So delicious. Great service and I will definitely go back here.

A disappointing second trip

Our first trip here was outstanding. We sat at the bar and had a wonderful time. Tonight not so good. We sat outside and had to rely on a server to assist us. Asking for water, napkins and set-ups isn't my idea of table service....More like help yourself. The wait for a server was longer than it should have been and it went down hill from there. Overall the service was rated a 2 with the kicker coming with the check. We had their fajitas and realized the bill had an up-charge for the shredded cheese and lettuce that you use for toppings. Sorry but where I come from those are the standard toppings, along with possibly salsa, that come with the dish. Similar to tacos.... shredded cheese, lettuce, salsa. The amount was around $3. It's not the amount but the principal. Don't have your server ask..." would you like cheese and lettuce" and then not to finish the statement..."There is an up-charge for it" I had family with me and was going to show this place off. BIG MISTAKE ON MY PART> There are too many better Mexican restaurants here in Phoenix.More

Probably one of my favorite Sonoran Mexican style restaurants in the Valley!

We are frequenters of Manuel's Mexican Food. We used to go to their 90th ST/Mountain View location in Scottsdale regularly, but then downsized to N. Phoenix from Scottsdale, and this location is most convenient to us. It is a good-sized restaurant, and they can accommodate...our large family when we meet up. We also enjoy a smaller party in a booth. I love their salsas (both mild and hot). I love their cheese crisps...including one with chiles on it. I tend to order combos or ala carte items including some or all of the following: shredded beef taco, cheese enchilada (or cheese and onion), and/or bean tostadas. Theirs never disappoint me. Service has been very good when we go. We will continue to visit this restaurant.More

Authentic and Delicious

We eat at Manuel’s at least one time every time we visit Phoenix, so I would guess we have been there a half dozen times. The food, and service, have always been top-notch, and we will continue to go back. I especially like the skirt...steak, and both the mild and hot versions of their salsa.More

Just ok

We love Mexican food, so as we drove past we decided to give this place a go.The starters were very tasty and filling but my main course was just edible. I had to get someone over to find our waiter as we waited nearly half...an hour once we’d finished our starters.More
