As everyone knows, it is not normal that I give a five star rating. That being said... Manny's was one of the most exciting, personable, friendly, and just all around fantastic place that my daughter and I visited for our lunch in Minneapolis Minnesota. They are known for their beef, but the service and everything else that my daughter and I experienced while we enjoyed lunch there was just off the charts! It all started with Greg, the manager of the restaurant, and the fact that I had left my credit card at the adjacent bar the night before during a pre-wedding mixer. Greg was amazing, friendly, and immediately was able to bring my credit card up front and we told him we would be back for lunch. The restaurant, located at the Foshay Tower, was only a three block walk from the hotel that we stayed at... The Normandy Inn & Suites. We sat at the bar and talked to Dave our bartender the entire time we were there. We obviously were there for the beef so we ordered the French dip roast beef sandwich. The service was exemplary, the food was just amazing, but it was the people and the atmosphere of the bar that will bring Emma and I back to Manny's every time we visit the Minneapolis area. It is a really good thing that I have family that live in Minnesota. Greg swung by where Emma and I were seating just to make sure that everything was OK. He also stayed and chatted with us for a few minutes before he went back to help other customers. There is a much longer story here, but it would take a good glass of beer at a local bar to tell you the entire story. Let me know when you're in town! Take care of you, and make a lot of memories on your next trip. Safe journeys read more

The steak is the reason you come. Manny's has the kind of vibe that's getting harder to find with no gimmicks, white tablecloths, classic steakhouse energy. It's comfortable without being fussy, and the room feels like it's been doing this a long time. Because it has. The dry-aged ribeye (80+ days) was outstanding. Deep, complex, perfectly cooked. This is what aged beef is supposed to taste like. The shrimp cocktail starter was equally solid: big, clean, classic. Where it slipped for me was the sides. Both arrived barely above room temperature. The baked potato had none of the crispy skin or fluffy interior you expect. It tasted like it was steamed at 10am and sat in a tray until dinner service. The pie was fine but also lukewarm, with no crispness to speak of. Service was friendly but attention was clearly going to the larger parties in the room. Bottom line:I'm going back. The steak alone earns it. Next time I'm skipping the sides and doubling down on the appetizers. read more

The ambiance of this place is phenomenal- you definitely want to have a reservation is place because while it's kind of spendy - this place was packed on a Friday night! The staff is phenomenal in answering questions about the meats. They actually roll out a cart and go over all of the cuts for you which is great for a beginner and they're super knowledgeable for people that want to really dive into the meat! This is a traditional steakhouse experience where nothing is really included with your steak so you'll want to budget some money to paying for sides. One side is enough for two people and definitely feel comfortable talking to your waiter about portions! We had the Brussels sprouts which were phenomenal and loaded baked potatoes and that was more than enough for the four of us. We each had a steak - I had the larger filet mignon and this is where the experience fell flat for me. I felt like the steak was incredibly bland - it came with a bearnaise sauce which helped but I think it might be worth springing for the butter option or something that just adds to the steak. The steak for me would've been a 2 out of 5 stars. We had the Manny's brownie for dessert and that was spectacular. Again - huge portions so one was more than enough for the table. I really think this and the Brussel sprouts were the highlight food wise. This place is not for the budget conscious diner - you're paying for the staff's experience and attention and for some big portions! And I really think the staff is what made this experience a 4 for me because the steak part of the steakhouse was really lacking and I prefer the steakhouse style where sides are a part of meal not an add on. read more

A friend who frequents Minneapolis occasionally insisted I go there and treated me to dinner. I called and asked about parking before I went there. He Valet with dinner is $20- about same price as an uber. I sat at the bar since I was dining alone and in no hurry. The two male bartenders were super nice and had been working there forever. Locals/others at the bar kept to themselves. I had a perfect dirty martini with blue cheese stuffed olives. I ordered the bone-in ribeye and Mac and cheese. Best steak meal ever. I thought of that steak numerous times over the days I was there. Possibly one of the best steaks of my life. Mac and cheese was death row meal worthy with a layer of melted cheese on top. For dessert I wanted the banana split but they said it was way too big. So I got ice cream with caramel sauce and it was perfect. Seriously highly recommend!!! read more

It has been many years since we have been to Manny's Steakhouse and I'm very glad that we returned for our wedding anniversary dinner a couple of days ago because it was perfect for it. The food was delicious and the service was great. We got two side dishes to share and the french fried onions were even better than expected. I was a little disappointed that they were out of the prime rib (since that is usually my preferred cut of meat to go with) but the bone-in ribeye was a great choice for me - super flavorful. We were treated to a dessert for our anniversary and the Manny's Brownie was quite a treat! We had enough to take some home to share with our kiddos. read more

He Said: Ah, Manny's. There is a reason why this steakhouse still is around. Even after many years from when I was last at Manny's, the experience is still top notch. The food was very good, and the portions are huge. You have to pay a pretty penny for the food, but I think the price is justified. The ambiance of the place is nice, and the restaurant is connected to the W's main level bar. The shining star of the restaurant is the service. Our server was great (along with the rest of the staff). Pros: - Quality food - Top notch service Cons: - No free parking (that I am aware of) read more

Absolutely phenomenal! One of those places you'd consider going to for your last meal on earth if you got to choose. Everything from the excellent food to the top tier service and elegant but welcoming ambiance was wonderful! We skipped appetizers because we knew we wanted to save room for the giant portions that were the main courses. I dined here with my family of 4 and almost wished there was more of us so we could try more food without filling the fridge with leftovers. I got the bone-in ribeye with garlic butter which I normally get cooked medium and the server recommended getting medium+ because they cook things less than the typical temperature. Even still I felt like my steak was cooked medium rare. That would be my one complaint from the night is that there is a universal scale at which steaks are cooked, why do it differently? The steak was still delicious though. For sides we got the broccoli with hollandaise and the homemade chips. The homemade chips stole the show, they were perfectly cooked and came with a delicious aoili. My mom got the burger with fries and the consensus was the chips took the prize! For dessert we shared the banana cream pie per our server's recommendation and the key like pie. Both were very good. I wish I remembered our server's name because he was spectacular and helped make our first time dining at Manny's one we'll never forget! read more

SO SO GOOD Manny's Steakhouse in Minneapolis is the rare place that makes you wish rating systems went to six stars. A golden buzzer, if you will. I visited twice in the evening and once for breakfast, and not a single note was missed. Everything was FLAWLESS. The martinis were cold, confident, and dangerously dirty. The calamari was crisp and perfectly seasoned. The atmosphere was loud in just he right way: buzzing, celebratory, alive. Breakfast somehow matched the energy. The Bloody Mary was bold and balanced, not a novelty glass of chaos. The eggs Benedict were genuinely mind-blowing and rich, perfectly cooked, and clearly made by people who care deeply about doing classics correctly. Manny's Steakhouse doesn't just live up to its reputation; it earns it repeatedly. This is a restaurant operating at full confidence, and the experience shows it. read more

After having happy hour in the living room next door (4-6pm) which is a great place for a cheaper drink before dinner, we got a seat at the bar. Ordered a couple of the house red wines, which I don't recommend. Just pay a couple more dollars for the other reds by the glass. We split the burger which was delicious. Covered in French fried onions and it comes out on split plates which each having a side of fries. It's the perfect amount for two. If you have been in before for the burger, they recently changed it from 2 8 oz smash patties to one 10 oz patty at the same price. Other pictures of the Manny burger are the older and bigger version. Still, this one is great. read more

My husband's 'choice' of restaurants in Winter Haven for a good steak. The only negative, it's too noisy....

Ambiance 5/5 Service 5/5 Food 5/5 Price for value 4/5 on the pricy side but you pay for the quality of food and service and ambiance. Second time here! They never disappoint. Service was too notch, drinks always offered refills before having to ask. Waters refilled, table and plates get cleaned efficiently. It's like a well oiled machine. I love how they show you all of their meats with a meat cart so you know what you are getting before ordering. Love that. Choices are wide and you go from steaks, pork chops to seafood, they have a lot to choose from. Will come back again and again! read more

I wanted to love Manny's, I really did, but for the prices I simply can't afford to go back! I'd much rather dine at Pittsburgh Blue (their sister restaurant) and not leave having to sell a kidney. It would be one thing if the dishes justified the price but unfortunately they don't. The complimentary bread basket was delicious. I like that they offered two different kinds of bread and a cold salted butter. Moving on to the main meal, the hash browns which everyone told me is a "must get" fell so flat. They lacked flavor and salt. The elote corn, which was the special at the time, was good but could stand to be a little more creamy and less spicy. It was tough to make a dent in it because it was too spicy for us. My fried shrimp were way overcooked and left me wishing I just went to Red Lobster instead as they do a better job with their fried shrimp. My husband's steak was cooked nicely but lacked seasoning. Lastly, the bread pudding was fine but the bourbon on top didn't add anything to it. I wish I would have asked for no Maker's Mark poured on top. Even though the food was lack luster, our server was incredible and went very well taken care of. All in all, save some money and visit Pittsburgh Blue! I feel that Manny's was one and done for us. read more

I've been to Manny's 3 times, twice for dinner and once for lunch. I'm between 3 and 4 starts and going to err a little on the harsh side just because of the price, reputation, and high expectations built up by other Minneapolis folks. The highlight is the presentation where the waiter brings out a bunch of shrink-wrapped steaks and explains the cuts with a comedic presentation. At my most recent visit, my steak was undercooked and I sent it back to finish. Steak sandwich was a good lunch option. I think two of the signature sides, hash browns and glazed/smoked bacon dish are fun but overrated. I was fortunate to have my meal paid for twice at a company event and the other time was for an anniversary dinner when I first moved to the city. Service is great and food is good. I think there are better steakhouses if you're looking for fine dining. read more

We had reservations for lunch at mannys, surprisingly I have not dined here before (I know it's a staple!) we actually didn't know there was a different menu for lunch and dinner but we were pleasantly surprised with our menu options. We all ordered the NY strip medium rare, some chose broccolini some chose fries and we ordered the loaded hashbrowns to share. Steaks were cooked perfectly with a nice salty char on the edges, the broccolini was the superior option over the fries and don't even get me started on those loaded hashbrowns - oh my gosh, cheesy, crispy, huge fat chunks of bacon and a nice dollop of sour cream and fresh chives - yum yum yum. The service was fantastic, I made a mistake with the number in my party and they quickly accommodated us. read more

Had high expectations for this place since the locals were like wow youre going there!! Extensive wine list, pricey steaks Had a lot of buffalo trace whiskys in their cabinet but none on the menu, so we had to ask if they actually had it (they did) I got the porterhouse Steak was good enough when i got it. Filet side was nice and tender. Ny side was tougher, as could be expected in comparison. However, once the steak cooled off it was not edible. Needless to say i didnt finish it. Sides were ok. We wanted the gratin but the server said it wasnt a good choice. So we got reg loaded mash and hash browns instead. Mash was good. Hash was not. While kinda crispy on the outside, inside was mush. Mushrooms had a good flavor, but then also tasted like charcoal. So if not for that burnt taste it wouldve been nice and buttery. Asparagus was asparagus. Bday dessert was a massive brownie sundae. Brownie was super decadent and fudgey. As far as atmosphere goes. Everyone was crammed in close together to fit as many tables as possible. Thus, it is very noisy. And like typical steakhouses its quite dark. Would i go again? Sure, if someone else was paying. I would also def order diff things though read more

THE BIG: Steakhouse located in the Foshay building in downtown Minneapolis with the birght green sign. Pretty big interior that always seems to be full. Plenty of meat selections ranging from beef to chicken to seafood, but you're really there for the steaks. Valet or public parking garage is available. THE BLACK AND WHITE: We came here on low key Wednesday night and Manny's was still packed! For steak selection, we were first shown by the waiter the meat selection which was intricately displayed. For apps, we got the oysters, asparagus, spinach, bone marrow, potatoes, and mushrooms. Everyone else got their selection of steak. I got a porterhouse to get those two slices of meat. Cooked to perfect medium rare, I gotta say and it goes down nicely with a glass of pinot noir. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall the damage done was around $800 for a couple of steaks, alot of apps, and a few bottles of wine. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a great steakhouse in Minneapolis. read more

We had reservations after a long work day. Vibes were high upon entering. Very friendly staff to greet us and take us to our seats. What's really unique is they wheel out a cart and show you every cut of meat and seafood that is on the menu along with the veggies too. We had made our decisions and were ready to eat. Each item to serve was perfectly timed. Bbq shrimp were HUGE and full of flavor. We used the crostinis to soak up all that juicy goodness! The ribeye was a perfect medium rare and the fat melted like butter after every bite. The spinach was creamy and cheesy and the hash browns were perfectly crisp. Now onto the cheesecake, each bite was soft and creamy with no sourness and the perfect texture for a cheesecake. Strawberries complemented the cheesecake well. One of the best cheesecakes I've ever ordered period! Overall, if you're in town you need to check out Manny's! read more

Really nice steakhouse, but when the prices are as substantial as they are, I expect the food to match. Medium rare fillets were overcooked and not as tender as they should be. Could have sent back but then you eat off from the rest of your party. A steakhouse like this shouldn't have issues with overcooking... Sides were really large and were good (asparagus and hash browns). Service was very attentive. read more

Manny's Steakhouse - Steakhouses Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Manny's is the closest thing Minneapolis has to a New York City steakhouse and honestly this isn't a bad version of it! The Manhattan that I drank to start the meal was lusciously rich and whetted my appetite for a full feast. And that we did- with friendly Midwestern service that remained professional throughout we had a decent Caesar salad, tasty carpaccio, unique scallops with hollandaise and kicked off a pretty okay Bordeaux. Nothing in the first few courses blew me away, but they all hit well enough. Then we got hot with a 24 oz lobster tail and a beautiful porterhouse that were both very good. Nothing was differentiating about them in any way other than they were well executed steakhouse classics. The Mac n cheese to accompany them has a scrumptious crust and played the role of classic steakhouse side. I don't think I'd have cut a single dish, but I did walk away more impressed by the $900 bill after tip than the meal for 3. I'll celebrate an occasion here if I'm in Minneapolis, but I'll eat my casual Wednesday night steak probably in NYC. read more

I read this was one of the best steakhouses in the country and it did not disappoint. I also read that it was pricey. The steaks are not cheap, but the prices are right right on par with Golden Steer in Las Vegas. They are still quite a bit less expensive than CUT. You know what was not pricey? Their bone marrow appetizer. You get four generously sized bones for $30. My filet was cooked to a perfect medium-rare, we loved the hash browns and creamed spinach and our server was excellent. read more

Manny's is my 'go to' whenever I'm in town for business or pleasure. But it's getting harder and harder to justify the $$$$...As always, food is excellent, service is top notch, but the pricing is getting out of hand. I get it that beef prices are way up but the same cuts and quality at some of the other steak houses around the country (St. Elmo's, Charlie Palmer's, Bern's, Peter Luger, LA Prime) aren't as highly priced. Not to mention some of the chains (Morton's, Capitol Grille, Del Frisco's, etc.) offer high quality beef for considerably less. As yes, reputation and ambiance are worth something, but Manny's interior isn't all that special. While sides are generous and shareable, they also have taken a big jump. Enough bitching, I love Manny's but there's a limit. P.S.- Did I mention that it seems the tables are getting closer and closer together? No room to stretch or have a quiet conversation without the table next to you being in on it. read more

In the City of Minneapolis, there's only one restaurant that has this kind of high quality food and expert service. Manny's consistently produces culinary outcomes that are beyond expectations... with made in the USA dry aged beef.... YES, out of this world! Service is very friendly, kind, conscientious, and well trained . I like big servings. Portion size matters. Manny's will not disappoint. This restaurant is Skyway connected . It has valet parking. And there's lots of parking on the street or ramps nearby... it's totally walkable. Further it's connected to the new W. hotel which had got great ambience. 10 out of 10 I highly recommend to all of my friends and family. Manny is the premier downtown destination. Reservations are recommended for weekends or game day. read more

I love an old school steakhouse. And this place is def old school. We had 6pm dinner reservations which we thought was maybe too early, but this place was slammed when we got in. The restaurant has a buzz that you only get at a steakhouse. Sean was our server. It was his 64th birthday the day we dined (as was my wife's bday). Sean was the consummate professional who took extremely good care of us. We ordered the shrimp cocktail, the wedge salad, Caesar salad, the petit filet mignon, bone in ribeye, their house specialty hash browns , and broccoli with hollandaise on the side. The shrimp cocktail was just how I like it. Extra spicy cocktail sauce and the shrimp were cooked perfectly, not too firm or too soft. The wedge salad was very well done. There must have been 3/4 lb of bacon lardon on this thing. Loved it. The steaks were both exactly as we asked for them: medium rare. Seasoning was beautiful. The hollandaise was creamy and smooth. Sean insisted that we get a piece of cake on the house for my wife's bday, despite our pleas that we were bursting at the seams. Look, steakhouses like this are going to be made like this anymore. Come visit this historic and amazing steakhouse for an experience you can only get at a place like this. read more

I'm sorry but I just do not agree with the hype this place receives. I went with my boyfriend who had been there a few times, and I left disappointed and unimpressed. We ordered our steaks medium, and they came out mooing. Even my boyfriend, who likes it more rare than me, said it was aggressively rare. That, plus the steaks themselves were nothing special, was a red flag. I also think the sides were pretty mid. Nothing stood out, and if you're paying that much, you deserve outstanding food. I gave two stars for our good service and the atmosphere, but if you want quality steak, I'd go somewhere else. read more

We've heard so much about this place so had to try it for our anniversary dinner. This was an awesome restaurant - very upscale and posh! Everything was so fancy. Our server was Tony and he was absolutely wonderful!! He was kind and very genuine and sincere. We're not fancy people and he made us feel very welcomed and comfortable. I loved the complimentary bread and sweet butter brought over to our table along with our cocktail order. They have a wide selection of cocktails, wine and beer. Tony did a little presentation on the different types of meat and seafood options - it was fun to watch! When our food came, he had sliced up the steak and lobster tail for us! We've never experienced that service at a restaurant before, which was also fun to experience! The food was absolutely delicious and it was such an awesome experience. We shared with Tony that it was our anniversary and he went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful experience. Our special anniversary dessert was the best and the generous portion was incredible. Overall a wonderful experience and a night we'll never forget.

Manny's is where expense accounts go for a night out in Minneapolis. As many have pointed out, Manny's is the epitome of a classic steakhouse - large steaks, larger sides, a great wine list, excellent/knowledgeable service and big prices. I have no qualms with any steak I have ever ordered, though the petite filet has become my usual. Sides like the slab bacon and hash browns are good and can feed a small army. The wine list is extensive and has a lot of great choices, though you're better off paying the corkage fee if you have some nice bottles sitting at home. If I'm covering the bill, there's a number of other steakhouses or restaurants serving great steaks that I'm choosing first, but Manny's does have it's charms if you're in the mood for excess. read more

It pains me to write this review, as I have enjoyed Manny's at least half a dozen times since moving to the Twin Cities a decade ago. A week ago I organized a second "guys night out" with my son-in-laws and a golf buddy -- all who love their beef and wine. I brought two lovely Cabs from my modest wine cellar to share, opting to pay the $35/bottle corkage fee instead of the typical 200% surcharge on nice wine, though Manny's has a great wine list by the bottle. First off, service was impeccable throughout our dinner. We were seated in a large booth while the restaurant started to fill after 7 o'clock. Our waiter did a yeoman's job removing a degraded cork from the 2007 Quilceda Creek so we could decant for an hour while sipping the other Conn Creek Cab. Very relaxing, no pressure, lots of good conversation. Between the four of us we ordered two of the 19-oz NY Strips, the 24-oz Ribeye, and a Surf & Turf, along with a side of asparagus and one of mushrooms. Dinner came out remarkably quickly. The sides were large and tasty, though I thought the mushrooms were too salty. The issue was with the steaks. While none of us let our entree get in the way of a good time, we all expressed disappointment of some sort. The NY Strips were surprisingly tough and lacked seasoning. The ribeye was ordered medium-rare, but was rare in the middle (it was also quite fatty, but that's a risk with that cut). The host graciously took it away to re-try, but it was at least 15 minutes before it returned (shorter than it took to receive it in the first place!). While mistakes happen, the recipient also felt that the taste was "oaky" and "off", perhaps as the result of too much or incorrect dry-aging? The 1-lb lobster tail was nicely prepared, however. At over $90 for a steak, we were a bit disappointed, to the point that we may be looking at other steak houses for our next special outing. However, I will likely return at some point to see if this was just an off night or the type of slow slide into mediocrity that I've noticed in a handful of other Minneapolis restaurants the past few years. read more
