Everyone from age 11 to 72 loved their food. Salsa was the best with fresh ingredients. Staff was very attentive.

In Tempe for a family wedding. Manuel’s easily accommodated our group of 8. Very generous portions. Never ran out of chips and salsa. Everyone was pleased with their entree selections.

I had driven by this restaurant many times. It seemed to always have a lot of customers. It is very attractive from the street. Finally I stopped by at lunchtime and found the restaurant to be filled with "regulars" happily enjoying their meals. The interior...turned out to be attractive as well. I was seated promptly and my server, Felix, did a great job of welcoming my friend and myself, taking our order and serving us quickly and gracefully. If only the food was as good as the ambience and the service, I would be giving Manuel's rave reviews. Unfortunately it wasn't.More

Great service and food friendly staff as well the atmosphere is warm and inviting. They also can do food to go, if you are in a hurry as we were. I recommend to stay and enjoy the ambiance instead of being in a hurry as...we wereMore

We had a party of 7 plus a toddler. One of dinners did not get ordered, so when the food came out, one was missing. Nothing was said, except - Sorry. They should have COMP the dinner, since my cousin was eating when the rest...of us were basically finished. The waiter may have been inexperienced, but the owner or manage should be aware of this and provided assistance. The food was acceptable, but maybe not the best we've had.More

After several visits to “the Valley” for Spring Training and Fall baseball games, we decided to look for a Mexican restaurant that served more than tacos. We decided on Manuel’s in Tempe, which turned out to be a great decision. Upon entering, we were greeted...by a friendly welcome at the host/hostess desk. Our server also was very attentive, friendly and helpful. Obviously we expected a good dining experience to follow—and it did! I enjoyed the Chiliquiles, which was delicious—not spicy but not bland. My husband had the Taco Salad with beef, which he said tasted as good as it looked. The large portions left us no room for dessert! We are considering bringing grandchildren along on our next trip. Manuel’s Kids Menu listed nine choices. We definitely plan a return visit to Manuel’s, perhaps with the kiddos in tow!More

Arrived early afternooon so plenty of Room at Manuel's. Service excellent, Margaritas excellent! lots of Ambience and nice and cool with 99 degrees outside. Large portions and a huge number of items on menu. My food- beef enchilatas a bit too salty

This restaurant is nicely decorated, without loud music and with comfortable seating. The wait staff was very accommodating and attentive. They were careful to identify vegetarian options for us and help us avoid foods we do not eat. The downside was that there were very...few vegetarian options. Our friends, meat eaters, enjoyed their meals very much. The churros, sadly, were tough. But overall, we're really liked this place.More

Wife and I were there with a large group for lunch. Our food and drink orders were processed as quickly as could be expected. The food was great tasting. We both had shredded beef Enchilada. Large servings but we were able to finish all on...the plate. This is certainly among the better Mexican restaurants here in the Valley of the Sun.More

It is owned by a Mexican family and the memoribilia was interesting. Good variety but just good not great. People were friendly.

We were 3 people and all had something from the lunch special menu. Good food and good value for the money. Service was excellent. Will be back.

Raised in AZ but now in the PNW it’s always a pleasure to return and eat proper Mexican cuisine. Manuel’s does not disappoint. Had a Cadillac Margarita, Chips & Salsa, Cheese Crisp and Green Chili Cheese Tamal. All excellent. Service fast, friendly and accommodating. Will...go back every time I’m in town.More
