    Enchiladas

    Tacos, enchiladas, burrito, margaritas, horchata 10/10!! Highly recommend. Food and customer service was outstanding. Very clean restaurant.

    Eating Mexican food this deep into the Midwest seems strange but Yelp said this was a great place. And I'd have to agree. The place is very clean and inviting with a mixture between an old style Mexican restaurant and a new style counter order. The margaritas were delicious, the quesabirrias were very good with the consomé being the highlight, and they stock my FAVORITE hot sauce; El Yucateco. The people are very friendly and eager to keep the place clean. I would recommend not sweeping so voraciously two feet from a dining customer but no big deal. Great place to for authentic Mexican cuisine!

    Very good Mexican food. Would eat again. I really like their daily deals and variety of salsas. I just wish they had a chip bar included.

    Tacos are amazing. Everything is cooked fresh. The lobby is very clean and organized. It looks like restaurant but the process of ordering is more like fast food. You order, choose your seat and they'll buzz you when your order is ready. I love how they have a variety of hot sauce and condiments. Everything is authentic and I'm sad I just found this place. We will definitely be going for more food soon. The only complaint is we ordered the oysters and the menu proce is $21.99 but we were charged $31.99 and didn't realize it until we got home. The tropical chicken taco is also very sweet. The sauce and pineapple over takes the flavor of the chicken. It's not bad - it's just not for me. $90 later but we were full and happy!

    Seating area

    The place is very neat and clean. The staff is very quick at cleaning up after customers. My boyfriend and I got take out, but we were observing while we were waiting for our food. The food was great! Very authentic. My boyfriend got a burrito and it was huge! Very delicious too! I got the al pastor street taco and that was very satisfying. I also got their menudo soup. I wish it would've been spicier, but it was still very good. It's a bit more on the gamey side, so I wouldn't recommend it if you're not into gamey tasting food. I like gamey food so it was very tasty for me. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. We also love their little sauce bar. It had a variety of sauces and very convenient for us to choose our own sauce based on our own preferences. Overall, this is my new go-to place for authentic Latino food.

    Al Pastor Taco, carnita taco

    This is my favorite stop. There is not a bad bite in the entire meal. Each bite has you craving the next. The staff is very nice too. I recommend making a stop if you're in town.

    Came here for lunch. You place orders at the counter and they give you a buzzer/pager for when your order is ready to retrieve. In the meantime, you can find a table while your order is being prepared. The restaurant is spacious with lots of seating options. We ordered chips and salsa, Quesabirrias, Chicken tacos and Chile Verde with carnitas. Everything was delicious! The Paloma was great too, tasted very similar to a Margarita. The restaurant space seems new and modern and very clean. We would definitely go back again!

    Delicious authentic recipes and great prices. There is plenty of parking, beautiful seating, and fast service. The food is very delicious and clean. The drinks are very good. We ordered tacos and sopes. I liked the chorizo taco and the ground beef with lettuce and cheese. I did see the the regular tacos had onions and cilantro and it was quite a bit! If you don't like onions ask for light or on the side. They also had a salsa bar with a variety of authentic salsas! Some were spicy so be careful! I didn't get pictures of our food because we were so hungry and I ordered three tacos but the portions were huge I had to take one home. It's Mexican done right, I can't want to come back again and try more of their dishes.

    Wow! This is the place for 100% authentic fresh Mexican food with flavor!! Took my family here today and had the best meal. Inside decor and ambiance was fantastic. Food was made fast and fresh. Burrito was incredibly delicious and big! Daughter loved the kids taco. Wife wanted more of her steak quesadillas!! Can not recommend this place enough. This is a huge improvement for the quality in this area. We will be coming back soon!

    Excellent traditional Mexican cuisine, friendly staff, and very clean place. Thanks to the taqueria I rediscovered the Mexican cuisine and I fell in love with it. I wish they prosper and expand.

    We arrived to this restaurant with walking distance of the Hampton Inn around 5 p.m. on a Friday…read morenight. There were a few people in the bar area and we were promptly escorted to our table in an area with 4 tables. The place quickly filled up. Our server was perky and attentive. We walked from the hotel in 19% so were chilled. My husband ordered coffee but there was no other nonalcoholic drink option. The server suggested hot water with lemon slices and boy did that hit the spot. We were served complimentary homemade tortilla chips with a tasty salsa. I started with their soup of the day which was Pozole Rozo. I did not detect meat in This soup but it had plenty hominy and flavor. It hit the spot on a cold winter evening. I followed that up with Manny's Fiesta Salad with the Cajun Shrimp. I was happy the ranch dressing was on the side as I added a couple tablespoons and dumped the rest of salsa on top. The lettuce was crisp and I enjoyed the jicama which added an extra crunch. The 6 blacken shrimp were perfectly done. My husband ordered The Seven Seas Burrito which he said was excellent. He was happy when he came to the end of the Brito and found a scallop. This burrito must have been heavier on the shrimp and mahi mahi. Non the less he enjoyed his meal. We will be back next year for a convention, staying at the same hotel and will most likely come Back and try more items. Our bill came to $51 before tip which was not too bad considering the soup, coffee and two entrees. We just travels from vacation in FL and 4 days in TN so comparing prices they are right in line with other restaurants.

    I was traveling and ate at Manny's Monday 6/8 and it was exceptional. I returned 6/9 and had the…read moreworst experience with a very shady bartender overcharging my bill and up charging me for the exact order I had the night before?? Dishonesty is never going to retain guests
