    Our first beer and previous customer's dishes. 8:26PM

    This Manny's Sport's Bar review is all about SERVICE. We've all have experienced good and bad service to which we base our gratitude with a tip when signing the bill. But what do you do if you don't receive ANY service? Short of going into the kitchen to pick up our orders, we did everything ourselves. This past weekend we arrived in South Bend and found Manny's that was within walking distance to our A-B&B. We dined there on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. It was on Saturday this event took place. We were in town for the football game and no, there was NO drinking before, during and after the game. Our party consisted of one early 60 Y/O, one late 50 Y/O and one early 30 Y/O. We walked to and from the game which was about 1.7 miles each way. Our first beer was at the restaurant which we arrived about just after 8:00(?)PM. The restaurant was busy as expected and we were happy to find a table. We sat at a table with a long bench facing a giant wall television. The previous parties' chips, salsa and water glasses had not been cleared. It was about 10 minutes later when I went to the bar and ordered three beers. I was being genuine when I asked if there was table service at the bench or should we order food from the bar. I asked because of the location of the bench tables and explained to her I understood that it was busy at the time (although I did see empty table and there wasn't a line to get in). The female bartender said we should have a waitress, and she knew who it was, and she would send her over to the table. I thanked her, paid for the beers left a generous tip and returned to our table. A waitress quickly passed by, and a busser washed down tables at each end of the long bench (one being right next to us). When our table wasn't cleaned, I then went over obtained the towel and wiped down the table while the other person removed the plate and waters from the previous customer. After another long wait two people sat next to us, a waitress took an order and walked away. Still no waitress arrived so, one of us went to the bar and ordered nachos and three beers from a male bartender. The busser/food server brought over the nachos (8:40pm) and started to walk away. One of us asked if we could get some napkins. At this point we still don't have water, utensils or any small plates. Meanwhile the people next to us received their small order of wings, no napkins and no utensils. I gave then a handful of our napkins that had just arrived. At one point the other customers asked a waitress for some water. She arrived with two glasses of ice, filled one of the glasses and then she walked away with the water jug. The man at the table got up and went to retrieve the jug of water to fill the other glass. As he turned to return the jug, I suggested to just leave if on the table, which he did. At this point we finished the nachos, which we had to eat off of napkins because we didn't receive plates. We decided that we would need to return to the bar, to order our second beer and our meal. Because we never received a menu, we all ordered Manny-burgers. This was the only thing we could remember from the menu. Not too long the food server brought the burgers/fries to the table and started to walk away. We called out to him and asked for some ketchup, which he brought right over. I then went and picked up one of those table baskets that held salt, pepper, salsa, etc. We then realized that we don't have utensils. So, one of us walked over to the bar and let them know, to which the male bartender pointed and said they're right there. When we finished, the person that was ordering our food and drinks at the bar went back over and closed out his tab. He returned and stated that he put a line through the TIP line and signed off. A few days after returning home, he checked his CC statement and saw that someone at Manny's helped themselves a TIP. He will be making a call to the restaurant and then to the CC company if need be. SO, if this isn't the epidemy of terrible restaurant service than I don't know what is and BTW, as I visited the restroom the other two of us bussed our own table. Manny's, if you dispute this account, review the camera footage from Saturday night and show us where we were wrong.

    It's our go to neighborhood sports bar! Great, family-friendly atmosphere, service and evolving food menu (amazing wings!). Such a great addition to the East Bank Neighborhood!

    Very good sports bar, TV's everywhere and reasonable prices. Menu is limited but good for a sports bar. Very good for summer time with patio but plenty of room inside during the winter. Would recommend if your main objective is watching a game.

    Here for a quick getaway. Looked up potential places for dinner one night and came upon Jesus…read more(pronounced hey-soos) Latin Grill in Mishawaka. Reviews were great. Looked like an interesting place. Goodness, it was NOT disappointing! Vibe inside was eclectic, colorful, and fun. Our server was fabulous! Friendly but not obtrusive. Knew the menu well. Did everything with a smile! We started with their fresh made guac and the best freshly made tortilla chips we've ever had in a restaurant. We shared the verde salad...spinach, arugula, chocio corn, white beans, grilled avocado slices, jicama, pepitas, honey garlic dressing. Kinda exciting to get a salad unlike any other! So good! Hubby had the Chochinita Pibil...yucatan slow-roasted pork with all the fixings (look at the menu for details) and accompanied by their freshly made, banana leaf wrapped corn tortillas. I had the Peruvian Street Chicken, stacked high on the plate with, among other things, olive tapenade and the most delicious charred lightly smashed potatoes. It was HUGE and easily could have served 2-3 people (needless to say, we doggie-bagged mire than half of it!). Again, unique and taste-bud exploding flavors! Hubby tried, and enjoyed, their hose brewed Mexican lager which he says was crisp and malty. I cannot fail to mention the beverage I tried (on server's recommendation), the Mole Dream Mezcalita. Spicy. Cold. Good to the last savored sip! Will we go again? YES! Might even bring some friends for a quick road trip!

    What a fantastic find! We had reservations but decided at the last minute to eat at the bar…read moreinstead--and it ended up being one of the best decisions of the evening. We arrived fairly early, which gave us the opportunity to chat with our bartender, Aurelia. She was exceptional--knowledgeable about the menu, thoughtful with her recommendations, and genuinely seemed to enjoy helping us put together a great meal. I started with the Mole Dream Mezcalita, and it was unlike anything I've had before. Sweet, savory, smoky and beautifully balanced without any one flavor overpowering the others. We shared the elote, which was outstanding on its own, but the house-made tortilla chips completely elevated it. It's such a simple detail, but those are the little things that distinguish a really good restaurant from a memorable one. My husband ordered the Seafood Cataplana and was blown away by both the presentation and depth of flavor. Aurelia suggested adding rice to soak up the sauce, and she was absolutely right--you don't want to leave any of that sauce behind! I had the Cochinita Pibil, and it was equally impressive. The pork was cooked perfectly, and the combination of flavors was complex, interesting and beautifully balanced. For dessert, we once again trusted Aurelia and ordered the tres leches. WOW. Rich, delicious and the perfect finish to an already exceptional meal. The service deserves its own mention. As the evening progressed and the restaurant filled up, it was impressive to watch the team behind the bar. They operated like a well-oiled machine, constantly helping one another and anticipating what needed to be done. That kind of teamwork translates directly into the guest experience, and it showed. Even as the place became packed, the level of service never slipped. And Aurelia was simply outstanding from beginning to end. We've only eaten at one other restaurant that immediately came to mind as comparable--The Mission in Old Town Scottsdale, Arizona. That's a pretty high bar for us, so we're thrilled to have found somewhere that delivers this kind of experience much closer to home in Fort Wayne. Creative cocktails, beautifully executed food, thoughtful presentation and genuinely exceptional service. This wasn't just a great dinner--it was a great dining experience. We will absolutely be back.

    Caracas Bistro, a mid-priced Venezuelan restaurant located only 5 minutes from my new home in…read moreMishawaka, Indiana, is already a favorite place of mine as a recent Michiana resident. This was actually my second visit here - I never wrote a review of my first time eating at Caracas Bistro about a year and a half ago. I am quite sure I ordered one of their arepas during my first visit as I am an arepa FANATIC! It was very busy when we visited Sunday during brunch in September 2026. The only two waiters worked their BUTTS off, taking care of everyone. 10/10 for our funny and caring server, that's for sure. This time, my boyfriend and I ordered the following for our lunch. I ordered us a side of yuca fries ($4) with guasacaca sauce ($0.50) for an appetizer. Yuca fries are pretty filling - we received 4 pieces in our order. My bf ordered a custom Venezuelan Bowl with chorizo sausage ($16) while I had the Caracas Sampler ($15). The sampler included two mini arepas (I got minis of the pabellon and the rumbera arepas - both meat heavy types), two tequenos, and two cachapas, corn cakes topped with a soft, melted Venezuelan white cheese. Surprisingly, my favorite of the trio were the tequenos, basically fried mozzarella sticks wrapped in what tasted like Pillsbury croissant dough! Yummy yummy! Five stars all around for our great waiter, great food, and great prices! Our total bill after tax and tip was a little over $45. I didn't see a credit card fee on the bill, just fyi. If you crave ethnic food in the South Bend area, absolutely come here! Or if you crave instant diabetes, get a crazy milkshake! We saw quite a few people ordering those during our visit here. No idea how they could finish them. Lol.

I ordered a cheese arepa, Spanish chorizo arepa, and scrambled egg and cheese arepa. What I got was a cold piece of cheese in an arepa, sliced and grilled hot dog or some sort of Polish sausage in an arepa, and a sort of over easy egg and cheese in an arepa. The cold cheese seemed odd in a hot sandwich and it wasn't that good. The chorizo was not actual chorizo. Personally I really dislike over easy eggs...so that arepa was barely nibbled. So overall just disappointing. Frankly, making mistakes like this is a choice and not a good one.

    ​I was looking to try something new and different in the local, and Bululu piqued my interest…read more It's located in a corner strip mall; parking was easy, though you might have a short walk depending on how busy it is. ​Inside, the decor is clean, festive, and inviting. Ordering is straightforward, you can check out the large stand-up display or grab a handheld menu. While the menu isn't huge, the options are intriguing. I opted for a customizable bowl ($12+), picking shredded beef, rice, black beans, plantains, and avocado. ​The highlight of the service was definitely the robot server that delivered my meal to the table! After grabbing my container and tapping "Done" on its screen, it played a cute sound and zipped back to the kitchen. ​The food itself was a solid win on flavor. Even though I ate in, the meal was served in a to-go container, and a couple of items needed sorting (the avocado had black spots, and one plantain piece looked a bit off). Once I set those aside, the rest was delicious. The flavorful beef, great rice and beans, and perfectly sweet plantains. ​Overall, it's a fun, satisfying alternative to typical fast-food chains. If looking for something slightly different then the norm that won't break the bank, this is it. To be truthful, I was wondering why they were so empty/lacked customers.
