It is a full bar so you can get whatever you'd like. We ordered the wood fired wings. Good smoky taste and they will split the sauces. We got 4 garlic parm, and 4 thai basil. It's a little pricing for 8 wings, but they were good. We sat at the bar and service was a little slow. It wasn't very busy. The owner stopped by and asked how everything was. Nice touch!

Wow, wow, wow! We've visited Manzanita Restaurant twice now and both times have been…read moreextraordinarily memorable! The owners, Suzanne & Randy, have created a special dining experience in the heart of Verde Valley Wine Country. This hidden gem offers an eclectic menu that truly sets it apart from anything else in the area. To steal my wife's description, "Manzanita Restaurant is a culinary oasis in the middle of nowhere, where flavors collide, and memories are made." SERVICE: The staff is warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. It's obvious that they take pride in ensuring a memorable dining experience. We couldn't have felt more welcome or had better dining experiences on both visits. WINE: Manzanita has a decent selection of wines by the glass and bottle. It's not the largest, but there's something to pair with all dishes. Both times we had a fantastic bottle of Zinfandel from Geyserville, CA, which paired great with our meat entrées. The bottle price is very reasonable, as we used to be members of that winery and know what they charge. FOOD: Outstanding gourmet game specialties and German delights. We've tried several soups, sides, and main dishes and have enjoyed them all. Soups of the Day have ranged from Pumpkin Purée, Ostrich, to Manhattan Clam Chowder. Salads can be added as a side or as an entrée, including adding Chicken Breast or Grilled Salmon. We've also tried a couple appetizers like the Edamame & Roasted Brussel Sprouts In a ginger soy glaze with sesame seeds, and the French Escargot served in mushroom caps with garlic herb sauce. Main entrées we've tried include an Orange Roughy Special with red cabbage, a Manzanita Salad with Chicken Breast, Fried Shrimp, Coconut Shrimp, Bison Tenderloin with vegetable medley, Venison Medallions Special with a creamy mushroom gravy and mashed potatoes, Antelope Steak Special, and a Prime Rib Special. There's nothing I wouldn't hesitate to order again. I'm half German and love German cuisine, but amazingly I've yet to try anything from that part of the menu. They have a couple pasta dishes as well. The restaurant is not overly fancy or extremely modern, but it's slightly upscale, comfortable, and the food and service are both stellar. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply seeking a unique dining experience, this family restaurant won't disappoint. We can't wait for our next visit!

Over 2 years ago we came to this neighborhood gem and raved about how much we loved the place,…read moredespite being covid times. Fast forward to August 2024, a little over 2 years later and we came back. I don't think the prices went up (maybe a few bucks), the Covid plexiglass was gone, and people were seated more closely than last time. We think the menu is eclectic but we decided to stick with the German food. Instead of the pork shank I had last time, I tried the weiner schnitzel, with spatzle as my side and pumpkin soup as my starter. Soup was delicious (still loved my cream of broccoli last time). My entree unfortunately was underwhelming. For a quintessential German dish, I think it missed the mark. Stephen had the veal bratwurst and had half sauerkraut and half spatzle. He had no complaints. We shared a side dish of red cabbage, which is amazing! We came for Stephen's birthday and last time they gave a tiny little mousse with a candle to acknowledge the birthday. This time? We just got the check. A bit disappointed but my review doesn't reflect this. Service was ok. The restaurant had one server and one young lady as the water girl/ bus person, so I understand if they were running behind in things, like she forgot Stephen's beer twice, where even the water girl commented if we wanted another drink. It took a while to pay the check; we were going to pay with a card but ended up putting a $100 bill on the table, which more than covered the food and at least 20% tip. A bit disappointed with the second visit. I don't think it'll stop us from going back... we'll just lower our expectations. Last time it was a 5/5 This time? 3-1/2

We fed a family of three for under $80, which is a great value for the quality. They also offer a unique breakfast menu we're excited to try next. A true hidden gem--highly recommended.

Disclaimer: few 5 stars...always room for improvement…read more.. So I've lived in VV coming on 4 years and have read numerous reviews on all the restaurants at in the area. I knew this to be a breakfast place, of which there are many, but someone mentioned on another board about where to get Greek food and Georgie's came up again. Greek/Med is few and far between and a really good place just closed in PV. That said, I went in today. Specifically for the Greek menu. Gotta say. It was really good and will satisfy your gyro need. I ordered the spanakopita and a beef gyro. I expected phyllo triangles but was met with a mountainous portion baked amazingly. My first thought was please don't be cold...it wasn't. It was nicely warmed and so full of feta and spinach it was ridiculous. While the phyllo topping came off, it was rich and buttery and flaky and messy. This was enough for 2-4 people. Presentation was blah but taste is what mattered. The beef gyro came in a nice hearty pita that stayed together. The meat portion was generous. There was a bit more lettuce than I'd prefer but it was fresh. I'd opt for additional red onion next time and the cucumber sauce was creamy and just really good. No overpowering flavors. I wish they had tabouli and hummus and I'd eat there daily, lol! Service was lovely, clearly so many regulars. Servers are wonderful and friendly. Decor needs updating but you're not going for ambiance, you're going for good, down home food. I will be back!
