Driving from the airport we came across this little gem and decided to stop and were we glad we…read moredid! I wish we had gotten pictures of my food but we gobbled it all up too fast! They sell many kinds of tacos. I got the chori pollo and the Al Pastor. They were both amazing. The fried corn is so good it should be illegal. We didn't try the margaritas which gives us a reason to go back. Our server was so sweet and I'm kicking myself for not remembering her name. (She was from New York I remember!) The salsa was the only thing that didn't impress us. It was kind of bland but the chips were good and fresh!

Where do I start! Came to the area to buy a camper and stopped here for lunch. To say the least…read morethis was near the top of my list for any Mexican style restaurant I've had. Jude was an incredible server and her hospitality was noticed right when walking in. Only server for the day and she was kicking butt making sure everyone was taking care of and my beer was filled! The food, impeccable. The twist and flare Jorge (the cook) puts on the food was very to par with my liking. The street corn is a must especially my visit being in the summer and in season. Must visit if passing through or in the area! Highly recommend.

Excellent food and customer service. Nice little hole in the wall place. I'm glad I stopped by.read more

The REAL THING! When this place opened we soon realized it…read morewas not your average Mexican restaurant, oh it has the the bright vibrant colors, and at first the menu looks like any other restaurant, but you get a appetizer and it's a meal! All of the food is made when it is ordered, all fresh, the queso is fantastic! And it's made fresh. The guacamole is fresh, the EVERYTHING IS DELICIOUS, I will make the longest review if I name everything that's delish. I order take out a lot from here and I don't always call in, they are so fast at getting my order to me. They also have Mexican Coca Cola (made with cane sugar, just like REAL coke was made before they messed with it). From 1 to 10, I would give the restaurant a 20+

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.

The inside of the restaurant was spacious and had comfortable booths or tables to be seated at. The time it took for us to receive our food after placing our order was not too long. There were three of us eating lunch at this time and the restaurant was not busy, which was great for us! I ordered an Al Pastor Tostada with Beans and Rice, but it was not to my liking at all. The tostada was not crunchy, but stale. The Al Pastor did not have much flavoring and it tasted like it was an old/leftover batch. The Rice was bland, but I did enjoy the beans a lot. Personally, I would not visit this restaurant again.
