She asked for well done and it came medium rare. The tartar was awful... we took a single bite and asked the waitress to take it off the table. The garlic bread here is out of this world good, but that's about it. Our service was slow to the point where I almost walked out. We paid $56 each for those overcooked steaks. I wouldn't trust them enough to risk spending that again. I'll be going to a different steakhouse from now on.

It was very crowded and quite loud but the ambiance and service was top notch.

The menu had a nice variety, but overall, I wasn't very impressed. It seemed like our large group may have put some stress on the kitchen. One friend ordered wine that didn't smell or taste fresh -- the staff did open a new bottle and replace it, which was handled well. However, our meals took over 30 minutes to arrive, and when they did, they were warm at best. I ordered the steak frites with a side of spinach. The steak was undercooked, the fries seemed like leftovers, and the spinach was drenched in oil to the point that I couldn't eat it. Overall, it's an okay spot, but the experience felt off. Maybe it was just an off night for them.

It looks like a great deal but the portions are so comically small that it's actually a bit of a rip off. The food quality isn't great either.

Ambiance is nice and includes indoor seating as well as a few tables out front on state street.

Parking is kind of small and tight. Server was informative and was very good about my coworker's nut allergies. The bread came out and had a good chimichurri that came with it. I think I had like three slices. All the meals came with salad which was not special. I order the Panko Shrimp which was absolutely delicious. I would come here again to try the other dishes. Overall good experience.

I've been wanting to try Manjares for drinks and a bite since I already know how good their baked goods are for breakfast. Tonight was our chance despite traffic jams on the Parkway and snow drifts that makes parking everywhere in New Haven a treasure hunt. Decor is beautiful, ambiance is chill and relaxing. Very reminiscent of Olea without the downtown hustle and bustle. Menu is small yet carefully curated with something for everyone. We came specifically for potatoes bravas, one of our favorites. Saw it on the menu online but was told it was no longer available. Our server, Tabitha, suggested some Yucca fries which was not on the menu but she made a request to the kitchen for us. They were delicious and honestly if they were in the menu we would've ordered that as well. Fried calamari was seasoned and fried to absolutely tender perfection. The coating was light and crispy. My wife loved the aioli and picked onion combo on it. I preferred the lemon. Both of us decided to get a pasta course, bolognese and carbonara. For a non-Italian place to cook both of these dishes with such perfection blew us away. Flavorful bolognese that wasn't drenched in tomato sauce coated the al dente rigatoni perfectly. The carbonara was rich and savory with a little pepper accented by the guanciale. My wife had issues finishing ir and I suggested taking it home. She then finished it out of spite I believe. For $25 each, the pasta dishes were both satisfying without making you feel so full and bloated that you needed a wheelbarrow to get you back to the car. Plenty of food for even the biggest eater. Well worth the money. The attention to depth of flavors was evident. These were not some thrown together pasta dishes. Our compliments to the chef. Tabitha was great. Her cocktails were fantastic. She was attentive without being intrusive and has a great sense of humor. We are definitely coming back.

The very warm welcome from the hostess, who also wants you to choose a table or booth that you will be comfortable in, bless her kind heart. Mark the waiter, professional, knowledgeable and very attentive. He is a waiter from another era, when the job was respected and dearly appreciated. He managed the entire dinning room with ease, and no one was left waiting or wanting. There was a young male assistant who was equally as professional and attentive. The menu and specials were extensive with excellent prices. I highly recommend the clams casino app and manicotti, but the linguine and red clam sauce was superb. Large salads with delicious dressing, I had the blue cheese, so good and ample amounts served. Large bread basket and olives served quickly upon being seated. This is and excellent restaurant, immaculate and comfortable. I was so thrilled with my lunch experience today. What a gem. Bravo
