Food was delicious. Employees very friendly and is a classy place to go First time there ordered to go and it was ready when I arrived. It's like a place you would find in Boston or New York read more

This place is a hidden gem. I don't think I realized it was here. The food is amazing. It transformed me back to my trip to Peru. Service was great. Staff were friendly and attentive. It very beautiful inside. Definitely instagramable. When I returned I ordered the same exact thing as I had my first visit because it was so good. I look forward to trying something new. read more

We came here for a special event. Upon arrival, we were greeted by hostess and escorted to the private back room. The dining room was well lit and the decor made it look like a really fancy restaurant. I tried several of the dishes but my favorite was the ceviche. Excellent! read more

First I'll start with the look of the interior. Very beautiful decor. Second I'll describe the food. I ordered the Lomo saltado which is what I always get in Peruvian restaurants. While it was good, it wasn't the best I've had. For $38 I wish the portion would be a little bigger. I came here for happy hour also and got 2 drinks, the drinks were pretty good! $8 each. The food options on the happy hour seemed ok but nothing caught my eye. The other dish was a trio sampler with the fried rice, calamari and cerviche. Pretty decent. Had the tres leches for dessert, was good too but I've had better. read more

Flawless experience here. It was our anniversary so they gave us a dessert with a candle on it. The inside looks fancy and the lighting gives it a great ambiance. My favorite items would have to be the ribeye and plantains. Everything was cooked to perfection and the green sauce that came with it was perfect for all the foods. The prices are reasonable as well which is a huge plus. I highly recommend the Ribeye here. We had a great time here! read more

Absolutely amazing, as always! The atmosphere is welcoming, the service is top-notch, and the Peruvian food is incredible. My Fettuccine a la Huancaína was rich, creamy, and full of flavor, the ceviche was perfectly fresh and delicious, and the drinks were spot on. Definitely one of my favorite places for authentic Peruvian cuisine! read more

Amazing service, food, drinks and atmosphere. Mancora is a stunning new Peruvian cuisine Restobar and it was perfect from start to finish. Natalia our server was out of this world! She really took care of us and I felt like a princess being wined and dined with such delicious food and drinks. I loved the ceviche trio appetizers. They were so flavorful and fresh. And the Mancora tower with fried calamari, yucca fries, fried mussels and fish was just so beautiful and so yummy. But my tastebuds were the happiest with the fettuccine topped with filet, onions and grape tomatoes. This dish was absolutely divine! Dessert was spectacular too! A tres leches cake was just the right amount of sweetness I needed to end a fabulous meal and evening. I highly recommend Mancora! Best Peruvian restaurant in CT! read more

Date night comes around and we roll the dice on someplace we've never tried before. First off, Mancora is gorgeous! If you're looking to get some good photos in, this is a good pick. We are quickly seated (which is why Monday nights are the best date nights!) and our server places canchita (Peruvian "popcorn") with a tasty sauce. We find out later from the server instructing the couple in the next table that people just dump the sauce in, while I wasted my time dipping individual kernels. It never hurts to ask! My wife orders the Rib Eye a lo Pobre (rib eye served with white rice, fried egg, French fries and plantains. Definitely carb heavy, but I helped her out! I ordered the Mancora Tower - on top was the jalea, which was a mix of fried seafood topped with red onions, and below is a nice bowl of ceviche, lined with 3 mussels topped with more ceviche toppings. It also came with two shots of tiger milk, which I had a taste of, and again it was more of the same acid/sour taste. My only regret is that I ordered fried calamari as an app (which was delicious, but my entree already had plenty of fried deliciousness). While the meal was fantastic, I wouldn't get this entree again as it's very acid forward. For dessert, we split the Choco Lucuma - I can't even begin to describe the flavor nor point at a lucuma in a line up, but it is good. I loved the interesting texture, which was like a firm cheesecake. If you're looking to be adventurous, definitely give Mancora a look! read more

What a lovely surprise! My sister made reservations for our mother's birthday on a Monday, and even though the place was a bit quiet, we had an absolutely wonderful experience. The service was top-notch--one server was really running the show, and even with about four tables to manage, she was super attentive and incredibly friendly. The food was just spectacular. We kicked things off with the Máncora tower, which included jalea, ceviche, oysters, and two shots of leche de tigre. We also ordered the Bistec a lo pobre, featuring a delicious ribeye served with french fries, white rice, an egg, and sweet plantain. For dessert, we indulged in cheesecake and churros. The decor is so chic and totally Instagram-worthy! I had an amazing time and I can't wait to come back! read more

5 Stars! I cannot say enough good things about Mancora in Hartford! I came in during happy hour and it was the best decision ever. I wanted to get a real taste of Peru, and the happy hour menu made that easy -- and absolutely delicious. I ordered the Anticuchos, fried calamari, causa, and the ceviche sampler. Every single dish was outstanding! The Anticuchos were super tender and packed with smoky flavor. The calamari was perfectly crispy and light, not greasy at all. The causa was beautifully presented and had the perfect balance of textures and flavors. And the ceviche sampler? Fresh, vibrant, and full of bold, citrusy goodness -- hands down some of the best ceviche I've had. The vibe inside Mancora is lively but still cozy, and the service was excellent -- friendly and attentive without being overbearing. You can tell the kitchen puts a lot of love and authenticity into every plate. If you're craving something different and seriously delicious, definitely check this place out. Mancora is a true hidden gem in Hartford and I can't wait to come back! read more

Beautiful ambiance, elegant and comfortable. Customer service was awesome, Diego was our server and bartender and gave us great service. Calamari was super fresh, main dishes were great in flavor and a good portion. Mexican Classic takes the & the Peruvian Express (no baileys) was one of a kind. read more

A coworker raved about the delicious food at Máncora, so I knew where my friend and I would go for lunch this weekend. Máncora is a Peruvian restaurant that is located on the Wethersfield line of Hartford. I don't know about you, but as soon as I hear "Peru" or "Peruvian" I don't think of the adorable and very fluffy llamas, I immediately think of Ceviche! I love ceviche, but I very rarely have it. When we arrived at Máncora we were the first ones. It is pretty fancy inside. It is super clean, modern, fresh and new looking. Our waiter was very patient and knowledgeable about all the ins and outs of the menu. You didn't have to ask me twice, I knew what I was getting long before I saw the menu. But first, we got served cancha, crunchy deep fried corn. We decided to share Ceviche De Pescado and the Quinoa Salad. The ceviche was so light and refreshing. It was very acidic and lemony, with a substantial amount of tilapia, corn, cancha and sweet potatoes. The Quinoa Salad was also very light and refreshing, with a generous serving of avocado, tomato, greens and of course Quinoa. It was very fresh and colorful! We didn't look at the dessert menu this time, but I'm sure their Tres Leches is incredible! We had a great time chatting and enjoying the delicious food at Máncora! read more

I came to Màncora for the first time tonight with my family and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience here. We started with the Ceviche De Pescado which was delicious, so flavorful and fresh. For my main I ordered the Jalea Piurana. The seafood was tender and presentation was beautiful. The drinks were also delicious! This was our first time trying Peruvian cuisine as we like to hop around and always try new places. We were very pleased with our experience here, and the atmosphere was delightful. Our server Julio was very attentive in taking care of us and giving us direction with the menu. Definitely a restaurant we will visit again! read more

From the moment we stepped in, the emptiness of the restaurant was almost eerie. We waited, the clock hands moving slowly, until we were finally seated next to the busy wait staff. The elegance we expected was overshadowed by this awkward placement. As happy hour rolled in, we ordered, only to find ourselves caught in a tangle of extra charges. The promise of fried rice turned into a $15 upcharge, and when we asked for simple white rice, the mistake continued. Fries arrived instead, and even after explaining our allergy, we faced another upcharge to fix the order. The final straw came when we asked for our meal to go. Instead of a proper container, our food was packed in styrofoam, making it impossible to reheat on the road. The whole experience, from start to finish, left a bitter taste, far from the refined evening we had hoped for. read more

Everything. Great menu and talent. Authentic Peruvian food. Terrific space and decor. Delicious!

Food was excellent The Services magnificent (Grecia) The Ambience vey comfortable I'm going to recommend to all my friends. read more

Impressed with the ambiance, far more elegant than expected at the price point of entrees. Typical Peruvian offerings were split on: Passion Fruit Pisco Sour and chicha morada were both refreshing, fresh ceviché and causa de pollo were solid choices for appetizer. Our entrees were good, a duck entree and the special of Saturdays, tacu tacu - bean, rice and egg casserole adjacent to a creamy mix of shrimp, squid, fish and cheese. A nice treat while visiting the nearby Volleyball Hall of Fame. read more

Really good food. Great service. Our server Grecia was amazing! Def recommend. Seafood is top tier.

Aesthetically pleasing, very nice decor and style. Celebrated my dad's birthday and he was so happy with Peruvian Cuisine and service. Definitely recommend the Mancora Tower, feeds many as there were eight of us, mostly seafood fried oysters, calamari, ceviche and yuca fries! Dinner was delicious and again the modern plating is a pleasure to the eyes. Experienced a longer wait to bring drinks to the table but, it was low impact due to the food and ambiance being great and service was still a focal point. read more

The service was excellent and the decor definitely was more upscale and beautiful. But the food was lacking. I've had Peruvian from multiple places in the Greater Hartford area and the food here did not compare especially for the higher price point. I'd still go to Cora Cora if you're looking for a fancier Peruvian dinner in Hartford. For casual there are plenty of options like Piolin Sr, and more. Overall, I wouldn't go back. read more

They fry everything in the SAME oil! As a result, I didn't feel safe ordering the fish since it's put in the same oil as the shrimp. Food selection is poor. No vegetables. Prices are too high. The interior lacks ambiance...it looks like a remodeled dentist's office. The owner and waitress were both very sweet but due to the lack of food safety and limited menu, skip this one. read more

I wss in town on a business trip and decided to give this place a try since the reviews were so good. I decided to sit at the bar. The ambience is so esthetically pleasing. At the entrance and throughout the restaurant there are places to take photos. I started with their signature drink the Mancora sour. It was delicious and had just the right amount of alcohol. For dinner I had the Mancora tower. Bottom plate of the tower is cold which included ceviche and mussels and the top plate included fried yucca, and fried seafood. The food is quality, service was awesome. Whenever I'm back in town I will be sure to dine at Mancora again read more

Service was good and I would try here again. Loved the ceviche and beach drink. read more

This restaurant is the first elegant Peruvian restaurant in the Hartford area! They definitely took their time decorating every space here. I was surprisingly impressed with the quality of the food, very tasty, fresh and delicious! We ordered the Mancora tower (highly recommend!) it has jalea, ceviche, chiritos a la chalaca and 2 shots of leche de tigre! Chicharrón de pescado, pulpo anticuchero and chaufa de pollo. Everything was really good better than Cora Cora in my opinion. I wasn't impressed with their passion fruit pisco sour or their ginger pisco sour (classic I think they call it). It was 8 of us we went around 5pm without reservation on a Wednesday and they gave us a private room that looked like a house dining room, absolutely beautiful and separated from the rest of the restaurant we loved it! The service was very good, the lady who took care of us was very professional and cordial. At the end we ordered a tres leches lucuma and OMG that was delicious!! I'm not even a dessert person but that was divine! If you like Peruvian food I highly recommend this new place! We enjoyed our meal so much that I forgot to take pictures :-/ read more
