The Crab Cakes, Cheese Burger and Steak Sandwich was very flavorful. The sides - Onion Rings, Fries and Coleslaw were done really well. Lunch time on a Thursday, we didn't expect it to be packed. but the service was great, Ian and Brent were the best, very attentive and personable. The restaurant was comfortable, bright and neat. It's a great place to hang with family and friends. read more

Absolutely delicious food and wine! I always get the Salmon with pesto risotto! To die for. The service is extremely friendly! It is always busy. Wish I lived closer because then I would go more often. However, it is worth the 1/2 hour+ drive. read more

To start off with - as we walked in we were pleasantly greeted and seated. From then on our waitress was efficient, cheerful and on point. My friend and I both had salads (steak and salmon) the portions were very good and the salads were fresh and tasty! They came with 2 slices of delicious bread. I cannot wait to go back and try out the rest of the menu. Every plate I saw come out looked and smelled wonderful. read more

I'm giving them 3 stars due to great service. The blackened tuna teriyaki bowl was extremely average. We'll try some of their specialties next time. read more

Found this place b accident had steak kabob dish with red mashed potatoes I found it was very tasty. The waitress was helpful and very polite. I'd go again read more

The best food and service! The only issue is that the restaurant is a bit small, but the food is exceptional!

TLDR Food 3.5/5 Service 4/5 Pricing 3.5/5 Parking 5/5 Boo... bul... Bulgogi! Yes, this place has a Bulgogi sandwich as well as other burgers / sandwiches for lunch. The Bulgogi Sandwich caught my eye as I'm a big fan of KBBQ so I decided on that. I also got a coconut stout which I was a big fan of. The Bulgogi sandwich came out to be juicy and tender with a side of dipping sauce, but after eating it I would probably prefer a regular burger or sandwich. It's just my taste but I'd probably would of liked the meat with the bread and some salad on the side. If you like sweet and savory this is it, as the meat was cooked right. Service is great here and it can get crowded during lunch time. Pricing was in the $14+ for just the food and $20+ with a drink. I will need to come back for a dinner visit to try some more of their beer and the dinner items. read more

Our all-time favorite place in Folsom. Incredible food every time. The most attentive staff and service. Perfect location & ambiance. We can't say enough how much we love Manderes. read more

Our first time here today. The place is interesting in a way that I like it, half is for sports and half is semi formal the high top table is covered with black table cloth cover which is nice. We got there past 4 pm and by 5:30 it was starting to get packed. We tried the rib eye and it was great! It was seasoned just like the way I like it. The zucchini sticks was interesting but it was ok. Calamari was different not traditional way of cooking it. It was also ok for me. Lastly we ordered the chocolate cake with ice cream and it was great! Definitely going back again. The staff was also nice very friendly and makes you feel at home. read more

The service here was great! I was greeted by someone who seemed like management (as opposed to a host) and seated quickly. My food was fresh and my waitress (the bartender, I think), was very attentive. read more

All good is good, we love their Pastrami Sandwiches, I just call in and bring home. There are many good reviews about their Steak and Risotto, definitely going to try I highly recommend this restaurant read more

Great service and great food. Took my girl there for her bday a while ago and the experience was great. Got seated pretty quick. Real cozy but also a great ambiance to feel relaxed. Most importantly the food was great. Great place to take a date. read more

This has been my go to restaurant for years. I taken many people here and it never disappoints They have the best bruschetta in the area by far. The ribeye steak is always top notch. The creamy risotto leaves you wanting for more. I had one of the specials, lobster ravioli----oh my!!! Absolutely delicious!!! They also have wonderful desserts. Service is friendly and pretty good. Plenty of parking available read more

This food is always delish!!!! The kalbi beef, the angus burger and the fries!!! Bro. So good. Tonight I got the salmon and risotto special. This place is definitely worth checking out in the folsom area!! read more

Food was good . The place is too small. The waitress had a lot to do and she was in a hurry all the time when was serving us. read more

This is a hidden gem! Excellent food, and excellent, friendly service, too. There's usually a wait for dinner, but well worth it. We've tried several dinner entrees like Korean bulgogi beef, Angus burger, and Chimay chicken, and they've all been excellent. But our favorite is one of their specials - the Salmon Pesto Risotto. It's amazing! Highly recommend this restaurant! read more

A hidden gem in the Folsom area. Very much a social club as it is a restaurant and bar (beer and wine mind you.) Pretty small so get there early. read more

Food is great! Not over priced and great portions. We have had a few different things and loved them all. We really liked the service and at one point the bartender saw our beers had just finished and got us another round when we were not even at the bar. Great team work for sure. There is a bit of a wait each time we go but it's a great place so it makes sense. The ambiance is lively and fun but not too loud to have a good conversation. read more

Highly recommend! Amazing food and service. Beer and wine is a good selection. Perfect place to relax!

I was in Folsom a few times for work. I came here a few weeks ago simply because it had 4.5 stars w/ 400+ reviews. I came back again tonight because I was very pleased with the food and service last time. Well.. it was not a fluke. I ordered their pork chop w/ Mongolian sauce over spinach risotto and steamed vegetables (you pay extra for the steam veges bc the dish comes w/ a salad). Food was delicious! My pal said it was the best dinner he has had in Folsom for the past few weeks. I splurged with French fries as an appetizer. Their fries are pretty delicious as well... The service and staff were attentive and polite. The decor is nice as well but a little cramped. It also has a few TV's and a bar if you need to watch a ball game of some sort. You should definitely stop by this spot if you're around the area. read more

We've been going to a lot of Giants games, and when we get back in town, we go to Manderes. This place rocks! They have Pliny the Elder, which is a plus, but the food and staff are outstanding. I highly recommend that you come in and enjoy... read more

I came here because of the glowing reviews! First off, we were ushered in as soon as we stepped inside. The menu was not complicated so that's good. We ordered the calamari strips appetizer, and grilled steak risotto. The calamari strips were tender and huge, I'm used to seeing the rings. If you like to try new things, get this! My grilled steak were pre cut into 4-5 pieces, cooked medium well as ordered. The steaks were salty while the parmesan risotto tasted bland. It was an ok dinner. read more

For my 100th Yelp Review I wanted to rate something consistently top notch. Manderas fits the bill. It is a standout with meals a foodie would enjoy. This is my go-to stop when I am in the Folsom area or passing by on my way to Lake Tahoe. Food is delicious and attention is made to the presentation of the meals. Some of the items I can highly recommend are the: Bulgogi Hoagie, the steak is of high quality and marinated in a Korean Sauce on a roll. It comes with a choice of fries, Sweet Potato Fries and Onion Rings, salad, or coleslaw. The fries, Sweet Potato Fries and Onion Rings are all good. Hot Pastrami, is served on a roll with Pepper Jack Cheese with the same choice of sides as the hoagie. One of my friends said it's was the best Pastrami Sandwich he had ever eaten. Crab & Sweet Corn Chowder, it is flavorful and rich. The ingredients also include potatoes. Xango, this is a dessert which blends well together. It is Deep Fried Cheesecake. Yes, you read that correctly. Rolled in Cinnamon Sugar, with Vanilla Ice Cream with Carmel Sauce Topping. It is a good idea to share this one. Service is consistently good and portions are large. I have been a long time customer and I can tell the employees enjoy working here. It is not unusual to see the owner interacting with new and regular customers. The restaurant/bar is nicely decorated with artwork, guitars and sports memorabilia. There are Four TVs playing sports. It is a place you may enjoy with your friends or family. read more

First time back in yeeaarrsss since going vegan. We came for hubby's birthday, and I planned on just getting fries. To my extreme surprise, they actually suggested an avocado wrap similar to the chicken lettuce wrap, but made vegan! It was soooo filling and soooo delicious! I can't wait to come back for these treats! read more

Manderes - Vegan style avocado lettuce wraps - Bars Near Me - Folsom, California

3 stars equals average in Yelp terms so in my opinion is is an average joint. I had the oysters Rockefeller which were undercooked, and the staff, though nice, was too busy when I asked them to cook it longer. They tried to recook them, then forgot to bring it back, so I didn't get them back until long after my meal was done. The shrimp cocktail was average, I felt the shrimps tasted a bit room temperature and I would have liked it colder. The steak was just okay. I'm thinking more like Outback than a fine steakhouse. I felt the steak was a bit chewy. It was super crowded, and it's definitely a favorite with the local crowd. I guess for the price and average quality of food, it's not somewhere that I would personally recommend. read more

This place is wonderful! The staff is friendly and very efficient. Their calamari appetizer was very good and comes with two types of dipping sauce. My wife had the special of the day Salmon plate and she said it was the best salmon ever! I had half rack of ribs and they were incredible. Their mango slaw is creamy and great. Half rack was enough, I can't imagine eating their full rack. Kudos all around the great place! read more

Great food, ambiance and service. Owner is always friendly and welcoming. Great tap choices.

Excellent service. Plenty of TVs to watch the game. The food is excellent. Can't go wrong with their menu. Excellent specials. Haven't left this spot without feeling satisfaction of whatever me and the family have ordered. Local spot with plenty of seating and a nice bar. read more

Good food good location nice ambience clean. Just wish they had a full bar thumbs up.

Excellent food and even better service. The ribeye is outstanding, generous portion, cooked to perfection and, imo, better than Ruth Chris at a fraction of the price. They do get busy but we arrived early for dinner. Also ordered the crab cakes, all we can say is "WOW"! All other dishes we had were excellent! read more

We walked in on a whim after the wait at Bacchus house next door was too long, but I'm glad we did! The servers were attentive and friendly, and they have a good draft beer selection, although they didn't have a full bar to order from. We got the calamari and the bruschetta to start. The calamari was perfectly breaded and fried, and they were pretty tasty (although I prefer calamari rings). The bruschetta was also pretty good. For entrees, we got the bulgogi plate, beef kabobs, ribeye, and the seared ahi tuna plate. First off, the portions are huge! i got the ahi tuna plate with side of red pepper risotto and veggies. The ahi tuna was perfectly seared rare, and topped with fresh mango salsa. I would definitely recommend this plate. Although I can't comment on the other plates as I didnt try them, my colleagues seemed to really enjoy them. Overall, definitely recommend for good food, good beer and good service. read more

Came here for a quick bite with my coworker and WOW I was not expecting the food to be so good. I enjoyed the Crab Cakes and the chicken lettuce wraps. Thank you to Amanda for the great service. I am a crab cake connoisseur and I definitely will be back for those. This place is perfect for a nice lunch. Thanks Manderes! read more

Great food! The ribs are outstanding and their chocolate cake is to die for. It's a little noisy but the food and service makes up for that.

Consistently good food and service. Interesting mix of tap beers. Only wish they would update the menu. Specials are nice but tend to just be slight variations of something already offered. read more

Stopped by this place recently and although they have a patio all set up for outdoor dining, the server told us we couldn't sit outside. Right now in our area, indoor dining isn't allowed as per the COVID guidelines. The restaurant has three large sections, but instead of spacing out tables she put people all in the same small area in front of the bar, meaning people were sitting with no masks 6 inches of each other. Which obviously made us uncomfortable. And then the fact that they have outdoor dining but she said we couldn't sit there?! Manderes, you're not so good you don't have to follow the rules. Unless COVID hasn't come to Folsom?! read more

Was up in Sacramento with my son and his new bride and they took us to this place in Folsom. I have to say it was so good. I had the Korean BBQ and the meat basically melted in my mouth and the flavor was out of this world. The accompanying vegatables were awesom and there was a different but very tasteful Cucumber kimchi that has no spice at all. My son had his go too Risotto and was not dissappointed and my wife had the raviolis and she loved them. The food here is top notch and the servers are very attentive. Will definitely come back everytime I venture up north. read more

Risotto!!!!! All of them! We have never had anything but excellent service and food from Manderas! One of favorites in Folsom.

Great food. I especially love the bilbogi sandwich. Salads are great too I've only had lunch and they have been delicious. read more

Our food was amazing! Restaurant was a really fun atmosphere - crowded and full of people, if you like that. Our server was on top of everything and very kind. Will definitely be going again. read more
