Biggest drawback here is they don't take reservations. Saturday night at 5 the wait was 1.5 hours. I knew that going here so we went across the street to cotton hollow kitchen for a drink and they call when your table is ready. They called after an hour and we walked back over. They sat us at a table outside under a tent. It was very hot and not sure what they do with the crowd when they have storms coming as it's a metal tent. Skies looked quite menacing but storm passed us thankfully. I have a bunch of dietary restrictions. Mostly allium so onions. Garlic. Also cabbage. Gluten free. They told me essentially everything on the menu has onion and garlic so it was extremely tough ordering. I was very excited to order the guacamole and they cannot make any substitutions as they make this in big batches so we couldn't get this. I found that a bit strange. Most Mexican restaurants make guacamole fresh to order. Our waitress was kind though and told me the enchilada duo could be made without the rice and beans as they have onions mixed in. Chef gave me fingerling potatoes instead. Dish comes with one chicken and one beef enchilada. Flavor was ok. Quite salty. Didn't love it. What did stand out was the Caesar salad. The dressing did have onions in it but my bf really wanted it so I had some. Flavor incredible. Forgot to take a picture of. He also had the tacos which looked good. He said the salmon was better than the carne asada tacos. I've had the tacos before when my restrictions weren't as bad. Wasn't overly impressed but wanted to give this place another shot. Tacos are quite large and should be as they are $8 each. For a beverage I had a spicy margarita with mango. It was ok. Is this place worth waiting an hour + for? I don't think so? It's not bad but I've been to places just as good that don't have quite the wait and can substitute a bit more and flavor is just as good if not better. I had a tough time finding things I could eat.

Although they are still operating the kitchen out of a food truck we figured we'd go anyway to support the new location. We called in advance specifically to confirm the kitchen hours since we were about 30 minutes away. They told us the kitchen closes at 9pm. Perfect, we can make it - or so we thought. When we arrived around 8:40PM we headed to the bar and asked again to confirm that the kitchen was still open. She made it seem like it was and started handing us full menus. About 10 seconds later another woman said no, the kitchen has been closed. To find the kitchen closed early was frustrating to say the least - especially after confirming over the phone and driving all that way. Head of house answering the phones either need to be more aware of actual operating hours or the kitchen staff needs to stick to posted operating hours. I'm not sure who is at fault but it left a very bad taste in our mouths and I honestly don't plan on returning anytime soon.

I recently started a deep dive of highly rated taco places in Willimantic, and A Mano Taco Shop is…read moreone of those places. A Mano has a different POV than the other Willimantic places I've tried so far. While the other taquerias I've tried are more or less traditional (Pastor, Bistec, etc. with cilantro, onions and a few other classic toppings), A Mano has a more modern and creative take on tacos. In terms of the Willimantic spots, A Mano is the most modern in terms of art and the space, which includes outside tables on a wood deck out front, and at least one small inside table. I'm not sure if they had additional seating in a different room or upstairs, but that's possible given the building design. I suspect they have a robust takeout business as well. I ordered a Pastor Taco, and a Sweet Potato Black Bean Taco. The corn tortillas were fresh made and very good. The tacos arrived with the small round tortillas mostly flat and side by side in a takeout container, and the toppings artfully displayed on top. The toppings were slightly different for each taco. The pastor taco had marinated pork, pineapple chunks, micro greens, and avocado based salsa. I ordered a Pastor taco at each Willimantic place. A Mano was the only one so far to feature pineapple chunks, which I really like for Pastor tacos. This sweetness was important for balancing the saltiness from the pastor. Without that sweetness, the flavors would have been out of balance. The pastor was tender. The avocado salsa was good. I like the use of microgreens for the color, shape and fresh flavor it brings. A definite way to distinguish your taco. I ordered the sweet potato black bean taco because I've never seen it on a menu and I was intrigued. I was expecting the sweet potatoes and black beans to be in pieces, but the presentation was actually puréed or at least stewed to a smooth texture. This taco was topped with the same micro greens and avocado salsa, but it had pickled red onions. This taco was well executed and looked great, but if I had known it was going to be puréed, I probably would have gone a different direction just based on personal preference. I like that A Mano has different toppings for different tacos. In addition to the above toppings, I noticed corn, cilantro, slaw, mango and more as different toppings on certain tacos. A Mano's menu features other cool things like Birria Ramen, Street Corn, loaded fries, churros, flan. It's definitely the type of menu you'd like to explore. Service was very friendly. Both service and the atmosphere are a factor in my 4.5 Star rating, which rounds up to 5 Stars. If I was just rating the tacos, the score would be 4.25 Stars.
