I kept hearing…read moreabout it from people around town and made sure to stop in before heading out--and I'm glad I did. From the moment you sit down, everything hits. The chips and salsa are fresh and addictive, and the quality carries all the way through the meal. I went with the carne asada, and it was cooked perfectly--tender, flavorful, and easily one of the better plates I've had. On top of that, the portion was huge, so you definitely get your money's worth. The atmosphere stood out too. The decor has a really polished, comfortable feel--not over the top, just done right. If you're anywhere near Brevard, this is a must-stop. It more than delivered on the buzz.

My wife had the street tacos and her food was also delicious. Everything tasted clean and fresh. We did have a bit of a wait. More than usual for some Mexican restaurants. However, many restaurants have food partially prepared and then warm it when ordered. It's fast but not fresh. Not the case here. I have no trouble waiting for good, fresh, and clean food! This was some of the best Mexican food we've had in years. The waiter was very friendly and polite. I would highly recommend Manrique's for dinner.

Friendly staff greeted us as we walked in. The waiter promptly arrived and brought chips and the house salsa to our table, and most of them were broken and looks like they took from the bottom of the barrel. The salsa bar was a nice addition so you could have various flavors. We ordered a regular and watermelon margaritas and they were not good, no taste of tequila at all. I was surprised at this since other reviews said great drinks. So far two strikes against them. I was starting to regret coming here since there are many good Mexican places in town, but things changed quickly. Our second basket of chips was much better, and once we received our food orders I was very pleased. I ordered Chili Rellenos and they were fantastic, much better than I've had in many other places. My wife ordered the 4 enchiladas platter and it was beautiful, plenty of chicken and fillings, with tasty sauces on each type. It was so big the rice and beans had to come on a separate plate. I normally prefer refried beans over the rice for side dishes, but that rice was very flavorful which was surprising to me since most are bland. My son had the seafood burrito and he said it was very good with a lot of seafood. It filled him up, which is an accomplishment in itself. All the portions were large and prices were very reasonable. Our waiter provided great service. He didn't speak English very well but no points were taken off for that. He knew enough to do his job. Their health scores were also very high, which was why we chose this place over others in the area we normally chose in the past. I would rank this place up there against any of the other local Mexican restaurants and hope they do well. At the time of our visit, the Ingles in Cashiers had coupons on the back of the receipt, so you can save a few bucks on the already very reasonable prices there.

The Carne Asada Quesadillas needed seasoning desperately and the nachos were a miss. For the price paid, I expected more than store-bought chips and nacho cheese from a #10 can.
