This was our second visit to Ignite this year, and it was AMAZING! My girlfriend has the fish and chips, and I had blackened chicken tacos. Her fish was tender and delicious, the fries perfectly cooked . My tacos were loaded with perfectly seasoned chicken (many restaurants go very lightly with the chicken). The restaurant was very busy, so we sat at the bar. Our server/bartender (I believe her name was Madison) was friendly and prompt to help with anything we needed. We'll definitely go again soon! read more

Had an awesome time at Ignite before going to a show at The Palace Theatre which is literally right next door-how convenient! We were seated at a cozy little table by the window and enjoyed some people watching. We all ordered delicious cocktails to sip on while we decided on what to get for dinner. Jennie had a Long Island Iced Tea which was very boozy. Deb got the Spicy Mango Margarita-which she really liked! I chose the Cadillac Margharita which I will definitely order again. Dinner was great! I had the Seafood Mixed Grille-shrimp, scallops, and salmon served with rice pilaf and grilled asparagus. I'm not embarrassed to report that I ate the whole thing! Deb got the All American Burger with mushrooms & sweet potato fries. The burger was large-she brought half home. Jennie started with Clam Chowder and then had British Fish and Chips- she said it was very good. We had excellent service from Angeliza who didn't mind answering our many questions. I highly recommend making reservations, particularly on show night. I will not hesitate returning to Ignite to enjoy another meal at this lovely restaurant. read more

By far the best mussel stew I've had. The oysters were fresh which was my best friend's first time trying it and she loved it! We were there around 630pm and didn't need to wait for tables. Food came in fast and staff were nice. read more

The bartender was great. Attentive and fun. Fun vibe in the bar. The Aegean Haddock Piccata was a standout. The lemon butter sauce was silky and flavorful, adding brightness while letting the haddock shine. The combination was excellent -- fresh, balanced, and clearly prepared with care. read more

Straight to the point on this one.....I give a solid 5 Stars! Good job Anne. My wife & I live in town and this is easily our favorite restaurant in ManchVegas. We love the atmosphere...cozy & casual. The service is always prompt, professional & friendly. All of the staff are great and we luv it when Madison is behind the bar, two big thumbs up. You can't go wrong with their menu, everything is delicious.... we especially luv the Haddock Piccata & Bayou Wings. They make awesome martinis and meet new people almost every time we go. Also, you can enjoy all of the above for a very reasonable price. So for a very good time, I highly recommend Ignite. So check them out & Enjoy! read more

Went for drinks and dinner after work with a coworker who recommended Ignite.It was a HOT day but we decided to sit outside because we had been in AC all day. Started with some drinks, which were a little sweet for my taste but still good. Apps we had were mussels and lobster crab cakes. Both were awesome! The broth on the mussels was perfectly spicy and so flavorful I couldn't stop eating it. 100% recommend that app. Crab cakes were great too but certainly overshadowed by the mussels. I had the Aegean salad and added salmon to that. I appreciated that the dressing came on the side without me asking. It was a nice, fresh meal for a hot evening. For some reason I had never been to this restaurant but I will be back for sure. read more

If I could, I would marry this lobster roll. I would only leave the lobster roll for the mussels, Not only that, the service was perfect read more

We don't understand how a Reuben can be so greasy and tasteless. The fish and chips were a bit more greasy, and the fish was not crispy. The coleslaw was more of chopped cabbage in a cup - slight flavor of maybe mayonnaise. The service was on point. The drinks were pretty good. We were seated in Hooked, but we understood as the Ignite/Hooked set up is a bit odd. We were happy that it was not too loud in either place. Just disappointed with the food. read more

Sorry to see that it's becoming more uneven. Still rates a 4/5 but that's because I'm averaging over the, admittedly few, misses. We've been going there a lot and so at this point have a pretty solid understanding of what to expect. The latest dinner was the biggest disappointment yet. We ordered oysters on the half shell and they weren't as chilled as usual (and desired) but worse was that most of them were quite sandy. I had to rinse them off with my water. But, things happen and although we've had sandy batch in the past, the others over our dining-in experiences have been fine. However, the meal wasn't done yet. We ordered two entrees and my wife and I clearly recall my specifying very clearly and precisely what I wished. And yet, when the meals came, hers was fine and mine was 100% not what had been ordered. Compounding the error was the server said "Oh, you said X" and then explained how there were two choices that were similar in wording. I merely said that that didn't match my recollection - that I was pretty confident I'd ordered correctly and as I mentioned, my wife recalled it clearly. There's an issue when a server says, essentially "You ordered the wrong item. It's your mistake." First off, it's a no-win. The customer says no I didn't, the server says yes you did and the dinner becomes an unpleasant affair. What should she have said was "Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you said X." That covers the situation in a non-confrontational way. Miscommunication. And then the meal carries on normally. It's things like this that make me want to start a video recording when ordering, just so we can "check the facts". After she went away to get the correct dish we had two people and one entree. So my wife ate and I shared a bit. And after she had finished completely, mine arrives. If I were to rate just this one experience it would be a 2 or a 3. But since I've had quite a few good experiences I'll just drop the overall down a point. And also watch to see if this was a blip or a sign of unhappy times. read more

Food is always amazing and drinks too! Owner Ann is wonderful, very friendly and always very accommodating, bartenders are awesome!!!

Ignite Bar and Grille because they're connected to Hooked Seafood right next door and the door between the restaurants is open and you can walk from one into the other. They have amazing with a delicious remoulade, great fish and chips. Everything there is pretty much fantastic and the lady who runs it is just the nicest person. When my friend who has a shrimp allergy asked about the crab cakes they knew whether or not shrimp had been used in that particular crab cake batch from that day which means that they're really good with food allergies as well! I've been there quite a few times and I've never been disappointed. Definitely a must eat! read more

Consistently great food and drinks! I have yet to find a better fish taco in Manchester. Get it blackened! Great service, good atmosphere, and yummy food. read more

From the moment we walked in, everything was perfect but what truly made our experience unforgettable was Angeliza. The food was an absolute 10/10, but it was her exceptional service that really stood out. Angeliza was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. She anticipated our needs before we even asked and checked in just enough to make sure we were taken care of without ever feeling rushed. Her energy was so positive and welcoming. It's rare to find someone who enhances the entire dining experience like she did. If you're lucky enough to have Angeliza as your server, you're in for an amazing night. Can't wait to come back when I'm in town! read more

Next door to the Palace Theater, a nice low key place to grab a bite to eat / drink before the show. The employees were super friendly and helpful with menu choices. The prices were not outrageous and the drinks and food were perfect! You should make sure you swing by if you're in the area. Great! read more

We live on Hanover St and always choose Ignite to grab a drink and a quick bite after a long day. The staff is incredible, always remembering us and saying hi when we walk in, and Ann is always at the door welcoming everyone in. The food menu is a staple but the specials are top tier. Definitely the freshest seafood around. If you have room after dinner you have to try the desserts, they are made fresh every morning! We take them to-go so we can have some treats at home. Everyone I've taken here who is visiting from out of town has begged to come back again, we are very lucky to have this place in Manchester read more

I absolutely had to find a seafood restaurant living in Arizona obviously we do not have access to good seafood. Hooked came very much recommended but we saw that there connected to ignite I ordered the muscles and my dad got the bacon wrapped scallops now he said his was good I wasn't able to steal a bite but the muscles oh my goodness were they delicious. For dinner we had I forgot what they called it but it was basically salmon scallops and shrimp on top of rice with asparagus which was as well just as good. My only complaint is I wish the seasoning was on both sides of the scallop and the shrimp because it was really good seasoning. Was very excited to find this place and would definitely recommend it again but I will say if you have kids they do not have a kids menu but they can do like chicken tenders or maybe mac & cheese. read more

Oysters were so tasty. We sat outside for three hours in July and truly enjoyed ourselves; our server was very attentive. Ignite is a busy eatery with a sister eatery one door down on a corner- foot and vehicle traffic is heavy if you like to people watch. The mussels appetizer never disappoints as the broth is full of body and entirely drinkable! We split a special- I think it was a filet topped with jumbo shrimp. I've not had tastier beef in Manchester. It was like beef is supposed to taste and it was the perfect temp. read more

This is hands down the best food I've had in New Hampshire. The flavor and quality of the food was 10/10. Even the bread on the side was phenomenal. We got the muscles, calamari, seafood/scallop dish, and calamari - everything was fantastic. The service was also great. Very personable nice people. You have to go here if you're near by and love seafood! read more

Hostess great and accommodating. Espresso martini dark was good. Mussels were good. Waitress was ok. My entree, the seafood mixed grille was sub par especially for $30. The salmon and rice pilaf was lovely but you're also supposed to get shrimp and scallops. I got 2 for of each and they were both hard and or overcooked as if they had been precooked. I wouldn't buy that particular dish again. read more

Amazing restaurant, food always delicious . Employees friendly and work hard. We travel 40minutes just to have lunch there. It is my husband's favorite place to eat. The atmosphere is comfortable and clean. read more

Best waitstaff, bartenders and servers in this city! Friendly, helpful and always providing a home town local bar warm feeling. Madison, Cameo and Courtney get top grades for making this place fun. Don't forget how fabulous the food is. Bravo! Mike read more

Great find. The atmosphere was nice and casual. The inside is small so it can fill quickly, however, it's the normal size of a restaurant in a downtown area. The staff was pleasant. The food was good. I had the mussels. Delicious. The cocktails were amazing. I had the Key Lime Island and the Cloud 9. Both were awesome! For parking there is a parking garage not too far if you cannot find street parking. I recommend this spot for a girls or guys dinner and drinks. read more

This place is always awesome. I travel from Atlanta 4 times a year and plan my trip around dinner here. From Fish Tacos, Tuna, Wings, Fresh fish, everything is good! read more

Server was very friendly, warm atmosphere, food was very good. The homemade carrot cake was excellent.

I specifically asked my server Ken if their Chioppino was a nice balance of the seafood within. He assured me that it was and he was 100% correct. The broth was exceptional with plenty of beautiful meaty mussels, firm and fresh haddock, big-ass shrimp, a couple of clams, and delightfully tender scallops made for the perfect balance. Paired with a well-crafted Manhattan it was a great way to end the work day. And as far as the Ignite staff, everyone was welcoming and friendly, and Ken was especially attentive. (Even if I wasn't fooled by the glasses) Thanks again Ken! If you find yourself in Manchester, New Hampshire you do not want to miss this small gem. This is one business traveler that will definitely return when he is back in Manchester. read more

With quite a bit of time before the show I was in the area to see started, I stopped in here for dinner yesterday (being 2-3 doors from the theatre was kind of nice too IMO). I got the British Fish & Chips & were the best I've had in many many years!! I know where I'll be going when I get a hankerin' from now on! read more

Be prepared for serious Shrink-flation.. the menu says that the calamari comes with cherry peppers, but what we didn't know was the cherry peppers were also breaded and fried, so you couldn't tell what was Calamari vs peppers.. it was 80% peppers/20% calamari Also while the mussel shells are big, there is virtually no meat inside. They try to fill you up with sauce and toasted breax read more

We love this place. It seems small but is big on flavor and character. Been coming here for what seems like ever. Best things to get in this order; 1. Cadillac Margarita 2. Bayou Wings. (Best F&%King Wings around) 3. Espresso Martini Always a lively crowd and great waitstaff. Doesn't seem like it would be kid friendly but we bring our 5 year old and she likes the food and the scene. Can't wait to come back here once the world opens again..... read more

Food is top notch! Went in with. My work colleagues and got muddled , calamari ( dipping sauce has a kick!) , seafood cakes and it was alll honestly mouth warteringly good! My boss suggested the cioppino for dinner and it took my back to when I first had it years ago in San Fransciso. Everything in there was fresh, the jumbo shrimp were truly JUMBO and the bread to dip in sauce was soft and the perfect compliment! I truly , truly will always recommend this place when I'm the area read more

This Is a gem. Best Service. Best Food. Best specials. Best Ambience. Outstanding 5 Stars. Top spot in ManchVegas

Got here on a Friday night and she said 20 minute wait. Not bad. Decided to hang outside on the patio because it was a little chilly so people weren't sat out there. She came and got us like 6 minutes later, SCORE! Impressed that you can order off of both the menu from Ignite & Hooked. I have a shell fish allergy but the rest of my party loves seafood so it was the best of both worlds. Started with a toasted coconut martini and WOW it was so delicious, if that's a sign of how the rest of their cocktails are I'm sad I live on the west coast and can't experience them! Steak was good, not mind blowing but in their defense I've been eating steak all week so I'm kinda over it. Asparagus was cooked perfectly and the mashed potatoes were potatoes nothing spectacular. The seafood dishes were raves about at my table. I obviously can't go into detail because I clearly did not partake in them but from the seafood chowder down to their entrees they loved every bite! The kitchen is visible and clean, the owner is hands on which is probably why the place is rated so high, she's keeping an eye on quality control and bravo to that! Would we eat here again? Absolutely. read more

Found this restaurant after landing at the airport. Everything was delicious! I had the Lobster Roll that was overflowing with lobster. My husband had the Fish and Chips and had a beautiful piece of haddock. Highly recommend this place! read more

Great food, quick turnaround and accurate very exciting atmosphere. Prices are less than other local restaurants

A bit small so expect to wait and it is a little crowded inside. Bar is open seating. Service was great. Food was absolutely delicious. Their cocktail and beer menu are festive with the seasons and creative. I've been anxiously awaiting going back. We ordered the ahi tuna appetizer and it was incredibly fresh tasting. We also ordered the lobster Mac and cheese and lobster roll. Both were delicious, hot and fresh. No complaints about portion size for the price. I wouldn't say the ambience is anything special but food and drink make up for it. read more

So I am from NY and was visiting and stumbled upon this gem while with some co-workers. Since I been back in NY I've been thinking and telling everyone about the food here. Angelizea (I'm sure I'm spelling this wrong) was our waitress - She DEFINITELY knows the menu. Everything she told us to get was SPOT on!!! A waitress with GREAT recommendations is hard to come by these days! They have both a regular menu and seafood menu... BOTH are great to choose from. I HIGHLY recommend this place for both FOOD & DRINKS. read more
