steak chimichurri tacos
Brianna M.

came here tonight with a group of 5 and food was great! service was... eh. and there was a lot of flies and they never came to clear our plates, a little frustrating since we had a party of 5 we def needed that room lol. the flavor of everything though was delicious and the prices weren't too bad either.

Our server was amazing :) helpful and service with a smile. Place was designed with red hearts :) it was Valentine's Day weekend. The chips were perfect, thin and crispy! I got the fish tacos and they were yummilicious --- the fish was big and flavored well.

Carnitas Chimichanga!
Ramon F.

This was my first visit inside Manuel's at this location. The restaurant is quite nice and has a nice setup which makes it almost like you have your own private table. The service is excellent. We were given some chips and salsa and ordered our drinks. The server returned to take our orders and I ordered the carnitas chimichanga and my better half ordered the chicken chimichanga. When our plates came to our table our food was nice and hot. We had munched on some chips and salsa before hand and their salsa is tasty. The chimichangas were delicious and came with rice and beans. The rice was cooked perfectly. Overall we enjoyed our dinners and we will return. Great place to dine out. They have plenty of parking to accommodate their customers. I also meant to add the correct photo

We come here often but been many years since I have left a review. Out of the many meals I have had here I cannoli remember a bad on or even a mediocre one. Their salsa is very good. We have always got good to excellent service. I got their Monday taco, enchiladas special. You get enough food for two meals. They have a bar area with tables and booths. In the back there is plenty of space to bring the family to eat.

Pollo especial
Jennifer L.

Love Manuel's! We are big fans of Mexican food and we consistently enjoy dining here. The pollo especial is delicious! Great chips and salsa. Good service. Fun atmosphere. What more do you need?

Chimichanga, senior or lunch menu. Shredded beef filling. Delicious and a great value.
Sudie A.

What a fun and delicious place to eat! The senior choice of chimichanga was perfect for a quick bite. And the chips and salsa were so Fresh! I recommend the hot salsa. There was a short wait. But the staff were friendly and I was greeted and seated before you knew it. Even the bar was full. Every one was raving about the margaritas. I'm definitely coming back soon. Manuel's was recommended as a top choice by local friends. And they did not disappoint. Thank you for a nice dinner.

Sweet potato fries I would next time ask for well done because they are soggy but warm. Carmel macchiato was delicious. l'd definitely get it again. It is a little thick but the protein in it tastes really good. Service: 3/5 The staff was just okay. It was my first time visiting, and I tried to ask a few questions about the coffee options. When I asked which was more popular--blended or iced--the employee simply said, "I don't know." Then he asked if I wanted toppings, and when I asked what the toppings were, he vaguely said, "You know, just syrups and stuff--I don't mess with that though." I agreed to add them, not realizing there would be an extra charge, which I feel should have been mentioned up front. After I placed my order and walked away, I overheard him talking about how I ordered, even sharing a story about a customer who didn't like her drink. He said something along the lines of, "It's not like I'm going to make her another one, that's expensive." Overall, the experience felt unprofessional and unwelcoming. It's disappointing to encounter that kind of attitude in a customer service role.

Wraps, açaí bowls, sandwiches, even protein beverages since there's a gym nearby - you get what you pay for. I love the Phoenix Wrap and the Chicken Pesto. You're typically choosing anywhere from 25 grams to close to 50 grams of protein when you eat here, though if there is anything to note, it would be that a lot of the sandwiches are $15+. You choose your budget, but don't miss out if you're looking to spend a little bit more. The staff behind the counter is usually laidback and pleasant. It's a calm place, and they don't mind letting you stay. If you have work needing to be done, it isn't a bad choice either. If I could give this place 5 stars for its smoothies, but maybe 4.5 stars for their sandwiches... I would. A lot of the times, I personally find that with the wraps exclusively, they tend to be lacking something salty or something on the side to feel like a complete meal. It's strange that it isn't with the sandwiches, but the last time I came, I saw they were doing specials. Be sure to check in for those. They also do sell chips there so it helps, but just keep that in mind. Cheers to healthy and enjoyable eating though. Great place, though not always my own personal pick.

For a split second, I thought, "That's a good way to intrigue someone to buy and try..." but NO, he turns around for a mere moment with a sample and my eyes lit up, I finished my order "beef Pita," (of which was extremely flavorful, tender, and fresh... the pita had great consistency and it all disappeared in seconds) but sorry, I digress, there I was, grabbing the strawberry lemonade and walking towards the table when yet again, the kind man asked, "how is the lemonade?" To which I respond, "great!" He then proceeded to pull me an additional cup, "please, try the others as well, they're homemade!" A mango pineapple and a passion fruit were awaiting my pallet, and soon enough... they too, were gone. The falafel was absolutely incredible, crispy outside, soft and flavorful and not dry, that's the big one for me... the falafel was perfect... there was only one thing wrong, so I asked... "can I order four more!? and some baklava too" (to take home of course...) I did sneak a bite of the baklava though, again, so tasty, perfect amount of sweetness, not overly sticky, and the right size to end the meal. Casa De Falafel is one that I HIGHLY RECOMMEND... I can't wait to go back and explore more of the menu... they will definitely be the only place that I go for a falafel craving... THANK YOU!

Angie's Grill was a new and unique experience because I thought we were gonna go to a restaurant…read moreand sit down and eat. If that is what you're looking for you might find yourself to be a little disappointed. This is not that kind of a joint. (no waiters, no waitresses, no tableside service, but no high prices and ridiculous exorbitant tipping expectations either). At first using the GPS, this place was hard to find until I realize we are not looking for a sit down restaurant...it's a drive up and drive-through restaurant, it's basically made for takeout dining exclusively! Don't let that fool you though because the food at this place slaps! Lol! We had a lobster roll, a Mexican salad (served on a large flour tortilla, as a burrito!) as well as the flatbread and chicken quesadillas. They were all excellent (if you're from the East Coast, you might be disappointed by the lobster roll because it's a local interpretation of what a lobster roll would be like ) and they are among our favorite things to pick up when we want to grab food and take it back home.. The prices are very affordable! In a time when you can't touch a meal for less than somewhere between 15 and $20 this place you can feed your whole family for that even their drinks are inexpensive. They actually have a lot of locations sprinkled throughout the greater phoenix area. my experience is that some locations are a little better than others in terms of customer service and efficiency but generally speaking I like the price and I like the food no matter which location I go to but invariably some are better than others.

Great value and love their seared falafel option. So yummy on a salad…read more Service has always been great, quick and easy.

Instead…read moreof being creamy and cheesy, it's a watery, mushy mess that tastes like it sat under a heat lamp for way too long. For a place that acts like it's high-quality, serving pasta that tastes this cheap and flavorless is just wrong. The rest of the menu isn't much better; everything is surprisingly bland and lacks any real kick. You'd expect "Mad" flavors, but you get food that tastes like nothing. It's frustrating to pay these prices for a meal that satisfies absolutely no cravings and leaves you wishing you'd just eaten at home. The service is just as bad as the food because it is incredibly slow. Even if the line is short, the employees move like they're in slow motion and don't care that people are on their lunch breaks. You end up standing around forever just to get a basic order, which makes the whole experience feel like a chore. The staff seems totally checked out, which makes the long wait feel even more annoying. There's no hustle or friendly energy at all. It's hard to justify coming back when you know you're going to waste half your afternoon waiting for a meal that wasn't even worth the time. As for the atmosphere, it is incredibly boring and dull. The restaurant feels cold and sterile, with zero decorations or personality to make it feel welcoming. It has the same "blah" vibe as a doctor's office waiting room, which really kills any enjoyment of the meal. Overall, between the gross Mac and cheese and the lifeless environment, there's no reason to visit this spot. If you want a better meal, you're better off looking for local favorites on Yelp or checking the Fast Casual site for better-rated chains. It's just not worth the disappointment.
