The food was incredibly fresh. We ordered Horiatiki Salad, Bougatsa, Tsoureki French Toast, fresh pita and tzatziki, and everything was phenomenal. One thing that really stood out was the French toast. It was topped with fresh diced fruit, a pistachio sauce, Nutella chocolate drizzle, and real maple syrup. I've honestly never had French toast like that before. It was unbelievable. The service was great, and the whole experience was excellent. I'm already looking forward to coming back so I can try more of the regular menu.

We started with the stuffed mushrooms from the specials menu. They were good, although nothing particularly over the top. For my entrée, I ordered the kalamakia and tried both the chicken and lamb. I wasn't sure how much I'd love the lamb, but WOW. It was absolutely delicious and definitely my recommendation! My daughter ordered the short ribs, and they were incredibly tender and full of flavor. Both of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals. This was our first night in town, and I honestly wouldn't be surprised if we end up coming back before we leave! The atmosphere was nice and our waitress was good!

It was a stupid burger, stacked 7 inches high with a wooden stake in it to keep the idiot burger from toppling. They do not serve fries here, you get just a sprinkle of potato chips- literally 15 tiny chips. $23, by the way. The burger was cooked well done and the meat had no flavor, the special sauce sucked and the tomato and arugula was sloppy. The patties were regular burgers, not smash burgers. The server told be to smash the entire burger down to make it a smashburger- WTF??? It all fell apart as soon as I took the wooden stick out as I knew it would. I had two bites and that was it. I let the server know I didn't like it and she was personally offended and told me "everyone loves our smash burger." Just bring me the check and leave me alone. Completely ridiculous!!!!! It was clean, so two stars. Find anyplace else to eat and you will do great.

At the recommendation of our local host, I went for the Pan Seared Haddock. This comes with lobster meat in a white sauce served over potatoes and cooked spinach. So tasty, the seafood was tender and delicious, the sauce not overwhelming the flavors. Our server, Casey, was top notch and gave the right amount of earnest attention. When he wished us a good evening, I think he truly meant it. Husband had the seafood platter mixed and I tried one of the shrimp which was excellent.

I have been using Yelp for about 6 weeks now, I am more of a reader than a commenter. Recently I became more intrigued by certain comments than I care to admit, but I am over that now and find myself really interested in commenting on the many different places I have visited. Some are unanimously great and some are hidden jewels. I love the idea of a sandwich shop as opposed to a sub shop. After eating at Manhattan Sandwich, I don't get that weighted down, grease pit feeling. My lady is a vegetarian and swears by the veggie melt and some other sandwich she likes, it looks like a pita bread pizza with veggies, I prefer piles of meat and melted goodness with sauce of some kind. I think the sandwiches are great and plenty to eat. I usually say I am going to eat half and save the rest, but I never do, it is just too good--- I have to finish. I have a few favorites, recently I tried the roastbeef with horseradish sauce on toasted bread, melted cheese too, but I don't remember what kind I chose. I have used Manhattan for catering jobs at my office, we have lengthy meetings at least once a month and I find I can pretty much pack em in if I offer lunch. I like the staff there, they are always pleasant. Finding parking is easy. For the amount of food you get the price is very reasonable. I would suggest going in when you have time, really read the menu and go with the first one that makes your mouth water, bring it home and eat it on the couch with your jammies on, it's best "staying in" date you will ever have. read more
