Took my friends out to dinner. Wait staff was very accommodating. They were quick to refill water and replace drinks & bread. Fried Calamari chewy. Dinners were all good and large portions. $100 for 4 adults with no booze. Staff was great, just not sure if I would go back. Place was packed but you were never rushed. read more

The food here is fine but the owner is a jerk who openly berates his employees in front of customers, but will then turn around and put on a "nice" act when talking to customers. The employees are fantastic and undeserving of such verbal abuse. read more

Just had an early dinner here. The service was quick but our server was not pleasant. She didn't check in on the app or our dinner. She seemed like she couldn't be bothered waiting on us. Our appetizer was ok, it was zucchini stuffed with ricotta and beer battered. They give you two small pieces and charge about $15 for it. The price wouldn't be an issue if they were amazing but it was just ok. For dinner I decided to just have a Caesar salad with grilled chicken. The dressing had a strange taste to it (hint of honey mustard) and they served the chicken steaming hot on top of the salad. My fiancé had ravioli which he said was good (hard to mess up), but it was the sauce that made the dish. I am not sure that I would return, maybe just for pizza or quick take out. read more

My favorite Italian restaurant. Perfect for a night out for fancy dinner or just to sit and eat a slice.

Arrived around 3pm and we asked to see the lunch menu. The waiter told us that at 3pm dinner is served. We asked to speak to the owner/manager. He came out and proceeded to say that lunch was over and ask us what we wanted for appetizers. We got up and walked out. Flexibility and customer service are severely lacking! read more

I've been going to Manninos for about ten years since we moved here, they use to be very small friendly and accessible. We now with there multiple locations and renovations the ability to get your take out is just impractical. I ordered a Greek salad and a slice and waited 20 minutes. While the whole time it was just sitting getting cold. They take your order, your money and forget about you. Staffing needs to re-train or train their counter personnel. Well lucky for me there's another great pizzeria a block away. This is how restaurants slowly lose business.. read more

I took my wife here for dinner Friday evening. We had fried calimari as an appetizer, very tender & nice sauce. I had Chicken Portofino  Breast of chicken sauteed w/artichoke hearts, roasted tomatoes in a port wine sauce topped with fresh mozzarella. My wife had stuffed rigatoni in a pink sauce, she added fried shrimp to the dish. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. read more

We had a nice dinner with friends but the food was very disappointing. The tops of some of the rolls that we were given were burnt and black and seems they were reheated ! Then the chicken parm came and 3 of us had it for dinner. It was dry, very little cheese and parts were burnt and dry ! My friends were disappointed and so was I! read more

AMAZING. I could eat here everyday. The pizza is always delicious and the restaurant has the best Italian food I have ever had in my life. A must visit. Plus, I have gotten to know the owner and workers here and they are class A acts. read more

I've been a patron of the Commack Manninos for 10 years. My husband and I went there on our first date and to celebrate our engagement. We've always been treated nicely and enjoyed our food immensely. We decided to try the Smithtown Manninos and we're less than satisfied with the management. They charged an extra $3.00 to substitute cheese in the salad and he claimed the cost of mozzarella cheese is much higher than gorgonzola. He was extremely rude when we questioned the sharing charge and claims the Commack Manninos has an even higher sharing charge. Overall, the food was fine but the attitude and demeanor of the manager was disgusting and we will not return back to the Smithtown Manninos. read more

I have had both take out pizza, and full sit down family meals here, and have never been disappointed. The Veal Parmigiana is out of this world. Had dinner with 6 relatives on my last visit to NY, and we all left very satisfied. read more

The food here is to dye for. The pork chop special is great it's A big pork chop with cheese on top and a weird shaped pasta balls.

Food and the help is great (why they got two stars) but the owner/manager/dictator/pizza czar is a rude jerk who (I can't figure it out) either thinks he's a "made-man" in the mafia OR Caesar himself! I've never met a more self-righteous GUY WHO WORKS THE COUNTER AT A PIZZA PLACE (he's not saving baby's lives here, he's HEATING UP SLICES!!!)!!!! I've personally seen him ridicule both workers and patrons alike. Like he's some sort of mobster..... But instead he heats up slices. Maybe his big brother wouldn't let him in the "cool kids club" and he's proving to the world he has what it takes!!! If you can bite your tounge for long enough to not tell this guy off (or put his head in the pizza oven like in "Goodfellas").... You'll get some pretty good food.... Both on the pizza side.... And the sit down dining side. They get the third star for the cleanliness of the place! Don Corleone.myst be a schtickler with the mop. But that guys is NASTY (COUGH.... COUGH....I mean SUPER cool) attitude cost the establishment the other 2 stars. read more

We love Mannino's and have been coming here for years!!! We typically stop in and pick up a pizza for our family which is always great. However, last night my husband and I stopped in for dinner. We had the Sunday sauce which was amazing. It reminded me of my grandmothers. Thanks so much for always delivering great food. read more

Upon arrival for a 4pm reservation everything seemed fine. The waiter was very courteous and made sure we always had a drink. Out of the 5 dishes, 4 were good. The 5th was not. The "special" which one of my party ordered was the Rib-eye with shrimp. Well, after the shrimp were eaten they were not good at all. The steak was ordered "medium". A medium steak consists of a thick band of pink in the middle. The steak was not cooked to order. It was instead almost well done with no taste and difficult to chew! The party member tried not to complain as it was mothers day and did not want to make an issue. Well, after the steak was pretty much unbearable to eat we decided to inform our waiter. After discussing with him he took the steak back. Well, after a few minutes the owner of the restaurant appeared at our table. Instead of apologizing to use and asking what could be done to make things better he instead attacked us verbally. He said he cut the steak and there was a line of pink and it was delicious. After I told him there was no red in the steak, he rolled his eyes and walked away. We never heard from him again and the 35 dollar meal was still on the bill! The owner should know how a medium steak is cooked and should realize that is not how you speak to customers. My family and I will never go to this restaurant again. I will never step foot in that restaurant again and will inform everyone I know how this owner spoke to my family and I on mothers day! read more

The food here is really good, although I have only tried the pizza from the counter for takeout. I do have to say that the owner or managers of the place are very rude. Their very short with you and do not create a friendly environment for their resturant. read more

Takeout pizza good, fried calamari was rancid. Wife called to complain politely and owner twisted it around saying we waited too long to pick it up. It was 20 min from time I ordered as the girl told me 20 min or so. I live 2 min away. Poor attitude by owner who has a bad rep. Not the only game in town, he wil never see me again. My wife is italian, she knows how to clean and cook calamari and this was not good. Most people in business know how to treat people but not this guy. read more

OMG!!!!! My New Favorite Place!!!! I used to go to Manninos way back in the day when it was on Commack Road. I used to order a dish called Chicken Verde which should be on the menu now!! I called the owner to ask if they still make this dish, he said he would be "Honored " to make it for me. Well I was the one honored OUTSTANDING EXPERIENCE!!! The food was i think the best Italian I have ever eaten! Our server Reinaldo was stellar he catered to our every need without being over bearing. Any thing we asked seemed to be his pleasure. We ordered Stuffed Squash Flowers that were so perfectly cooked when you bit them they were crispy with a warm melty center ,The Soft Cheese Salad was awesome the cheese was creamy and the dressing was a perfect accent to the dish. My husband got Frutta Di Mare which my husband said was served in a boat it was so fresh and delicious. I of course ordered the Chicken Verde and it was outstanding the chicken was succulent and juicy the cheese is so high quality so its gooey yet creamyas it melts and the sauce is just addictive. This is a must try for everyone!!!!!!! read more

Something has changed here and not for the good!! When Manninos first open I loved the place but now the food is not good. The chicken cutlet sandwich is chopped up pieces, the pizza is not the same either. Very disappointing! read more

The owner of this business is so rude that I will never go back. The food is decent but nothing special. But since we were trying to be cost effective & it is local we were thinking about booking a party there. This has to be the only place that charges you per head for unlimited soda. After meeting with owner & telling him we would think it over, he jumped up & said you are not booking it right now???!!! He then went off & just left us standing there. This was the most rudest & unprofessional behavior I have ever seen from a business owner. I will never go here again! Worst customer service! And I highly suggest that nobody even considers booking a party here! read more

A pizzeria pretending to be an Italian restaurant. The pizza is good but overpriced. Some of the staff are very rude. Last week a got a parmigiana hero that had no cheese, last night the shrimp was raw. There are just too many good Italian restaurants around to put up with high prices, bad food, and a rude staff. Try Sun Dried Tomato in Nesconset, they're good every time! read more

The food at Mannino's is either hit or miss but we did enjoy the pizza. However, because of a recent incident we will not be going back. My husband was kidding with the owner and gave him a few suggestions which apparently he did not appreciate and responded with a crude ethnic hand gesture in front of his staff and other customers. My husband was in total shock. What a horrible role mode for his employees and well as for his new son. He is very arrogant and moody, speaks to you or ignores you when he wants. He should never be let out of the kitchen, he is not a front man. My neighbors and friends could not believe it. We will not be going back unless it changes owners. read more

If there's anything I hate it's a liar. I am currently sitting outside this establishment and have been here for 40 minutes when i was told there was a 15 minute wait. Why lie to a customer??? Why would i want to spend my money here??? I'm disappointed, and i blame capitalism. read more

I have been a customer for over ten years. This place can't be beat. Excellent food all around. The best in town. We have catered numerous times and they give huge portions. You will not be disappointed. read more

Went recently for lunch, ordered their Ceasar salad and chicken parmigiana. The salad dressing was watered down tasted horrible and instead of giving me a side salad they charged me six dollars for a huge salad I ended up sending back. The chicken was ok but the sauce was watery and had very little flavor, Ragu wouldve tasted better. The bread was fresh however and was great. The service was also lacking. Overall bad experience probably won't be back. read more

Great for dining in or pizza. More often than not, I'm stopping here for pizza. Best Pizza in Smithtown in my opinion. The Buffalo slice, Chicken Bacon Ranch, Vegetable; you name it, they're all amazing. read more

We are regulars at this great restaurant and pizza place. We go for dinner all the time in the dining room, and I stop by frequently for pizza at lunchtime, I especially love the eggplant slice. It gets busy on Friday and Saturday nights, but the quality of the food never goes down. I especially love the shrimp fra diavlo, the stuff veal chop, and the pear salad with grilled chicken when we go for dinner, and my husband loves the branzino fish and any pasta dish. On top of all that the staff is great, we know most of them and always have a great experience. read more

This is based solely on a regular slice and a margarita slice. Ok so first off I got those two slices and a water for $9. That's insane and considering there water is not even name brand that's even more absurd. Secondly the regular slice tasted like it came from a digiorno box it was thick and chewy and the cheese tasted fake. The margarita slice was odd. It had an amazing tomato sauce but than a "fresh" mozzarella which was way too thick and not seasoned. The margarita slice was good though mostly because again the sauce was truly great. Could have been a bad batch or a different cook but I've truly had better regular pizza out of a ellios box read more

Very thankful! What a wonderful crew! I came in late, after they were closed because the lights were still on: i had been in the hospital for days and was dying for some food! They not only let me get some of what they had left but the food was delicious. It hit the spot and made my whole week! Thanks guys, will be coming back soon, and will bring friends! I will also try to make it in while actually open! read more

best pizza place around !!! my all time favorite for years. no pizza compares to manninos :D

Service was good. Food was excellent. Tried the seafood rissotto and was delish. Stuffed veal chop was wonderful. Owner is a delight, stopped by all the tables and talked to every party which is a nice touch. read more

Great experience great food food ! Very nice people and wait staff . Even the owner came over and wanted to make sure everything was good . Food fellas!! read more

Two of us went into Mannino's on a Saturday evening, around 6:30pm. We chose it, because it was nearby, and we wanted something quick, like pizza. With lots of choices within the block, this was a good one! (I also like the retro signage on the front!) The place was packed with families and loud with conversation! There wasn't a seat to be had, but, we figured we'd get a couple of slices (which we could see in the back adjacent to the counter/cashier), and eat in the car. Turns out that we didn't have to, because, directly across the counter were two empty and clean bar-style seats and shelf. We grabbed them, then chose two different slices from the counter display (I chose a veggie combo and my friend chose a thin-crust plain slice). The cashier/countergirl popped both into the pizza oven, and we waited a couple of minutes. After selecting drinks from the customer-accessible 'fridge, we sat and were very impressed! I could taste every veggie, yet they all combined, perfectly! My friend said it was the best thin-crust she has had in a long time! All the waitstaff smiled as they passed us and the tables, and two asked whether we needed anything (it was obvious that we didn't, but, it was nice to be asked). Glancing at the tables in front of us, the dinner meal portions were HUGE, but, they're a bit on the pricey side, with our two slices and drinks costing a hefty $12 with tax (we noticed from the leaflet menu that everything was a little more than I'd expect to pay for meals, sandwiches, etc). I deducted 1/3 star for that, another 1/3 for a messy men's room, and a final 1/3 because, despite eating the pizza scant moments after it came out of the oven, both were on the tepid side. We were in a hurry, and the place was jumping, and, as I said, the pizzas were incredibly delicious, so, we didn't bother with re-heating (and, unless they had a microwave oven, it probably wouldn't be sanitary to do so; I did mention it to the cashier, and she acknowledged it, but, otherwise, didn't seem to care (as I said, it was busy, and, besides, it's Noo Yawk (!), so I let that tiny bit of rudeness slide!). Despite those tiny faults, I heartily recommend Manninos, Smithtown! read more

My family and I go here at least twice a month, or at least order pizza to go. The pizza is delicious, all of the staff are super friendly and knowledgeable, and always making our experience positive. We love it! read more

Best pizza in town! Great variety of specialty slices!

I have been a loyal customer to Bueno sera here in Smithtown so I feel horrible that I cheated on them lol. However, I was my bank & heard them talking about a great Italian place thinking they were talking about Bueno! They told me that I had been missing out all these years in Smithtown by not trying Manino's and they were right. They have excellent pizza "thin crust" and perfectly crisp. Next I tried their rice balls when I called on the telephone I believe I was speaking to the owner who said that they were normal in size in his opinion and I was heading out the door when a patient of mine called & told me he was sitting in the same parking lot so I asked him to go pick up 5 for me. He arrives with a pizza box and hands it to me I almost dropped it as it was a lot heavier than I thought. I opened the box and the rice balls are gigantic and delicious beyond belief! Not too cheesy and was not overwhelmed with peas. I plan on trying more items on the menu although I will still do business with Bueno sera. I have to admit though Manino's pizza is the best pizza in town read more

Was coming here almost 5 years. Never had a problem. Two weeks ago was a visit I will never forget. I order here regularly and usually spend few hundred a month. Not to mention spending money on a few drinks while waiting for my order. This particular night I ordered $80 of take out. It was time to pay and I noticed a charge on my bill for for $1.00 two times. So I questioned Frank, the manager on duty that night. He said it was for the two cups of grated cheese. ( two tsps in each) I was shocked there was a charge for the cheese because everywhere else it's free with your order. So I asked Said really your going to charge me for the cheese when I just spent $80. He replied quite arrogantly yes and if I didn't like it I can go to Waldbaums!! I just looked at him unable to say anything. The nerve and in front of customers too. I told him he lost a very good paying customer. I will never set foot in this restaurant again nor will my family. Good job Frank. PS. Learn how to make a real eggplant hero!! Not the soggy mess I opened when I got home!! read more

if your looking for good food and friendly service this the place never dissaponted the pizza is outstanding the stuffed veal chop is good to last bite that is if you can finish it. i highly reccomend this place for family and friends to gather read more

This place has gone down hill. The pizza is doughy and thick. We had also ordered a simple chicken Caesar salad. They put greasy oil filled croutons that made the salad full of grease. The chicken was not grilled fresh. It's like it was reheated. read more

First things first I'm big on giving credit where credit is due. So this is where credit is due. If you're looking for catering look somewhere else. Not only did I wait 75 minutes on Christmas Eve . I was lied to that my food was already cooking when it clearly wasn't. We threw an entire half Tray away because it wasn't even cooked and nobody could eat it. Let alone the fact that I had family members leave because we were an hour and 1/2 late bringing the catered food home for the holiday and they also had places to go after. I called to speak with the owner and he offers me a gift card or money back... Which in itself might of been nice enough but there was absolutely no hesitation to offering anything back, making me think that this is a regular occurrence for this business. Trying to be a nice guy I trying give the guy tips of how he might prioritize his orders to improve his business and he doesn't want to hear a thing about it. At the restaurant , not even a handshake not even a smile just what's your name and do you want a gift card or you want cash back. I told him I want to cashback which should've been $65 plus tax for the half tray of fried calamari and I'm handed $50. When I informed him that it's $65 plus tax he told me no it's 45+ tax but I'm not in the mood to argue with this ass so I just leave. And I confirm on their website that it is $65 plus tax. So for a measly $20 you get this wonderful review and a great recommendation to never order catering from this place ever. Guaranteed he wont be getting my business at all for any and all family functions. Really sad because the employees that work there seem pretty nice but if the owner clearly doesn't know what customer service is or how to keep clients. And also it's been brought to my attention by an honest employee that this guy still accepts orders for Christmas Eve catering the morning of. He has no problem accepting 700 to 800 orders when he clearly can't handle them- and apparently this happens year after year and he's been informed that he should change his practice by his own employees and he still doesn't listen - and making everybody wait because in one employees words people just keep coming back anyway. Wait to add insult to injury, Frank. Please look up integrity in the dictionary. So to sum this up if you want to spend over an hour away from your entire family to pick up the catering order on Christmas then you need to reevaluate your priorities. read more
