Review Manhattans - Guelph

Our family had a wonderful experience at Manhattans. The food is superb (had the Papardelle pasta entree and it was delicious), and the ambience makes you feel just like you're at a restaurant in downtown Manhattan! The restaurant is the perfect balance of up-scale with relaxed dining. The owners are there every day and are kind and hospitable! Would wholeheartedly recommend!

Amazing! The entire experience. Tonight was our first night visiting for my birthday. We were so impressed. Firstly the service was great. Special recognition goes to Lorenzo, Allison and Delores who were awesome. We had my two girls with us and they were all so kind to them. This restaurant doesn't appear to cater to kids as much but they were well taken care of and were lovely to the kids. The food was perfect. My pizza (Nora Jones) was the best pizza I have ever had. My mother had the pasta and loved it. The salads were fresh and so tasty. I look forward to returning with my husband for a date night soon. Highly recommend this place 100 percent.

Easily our new favourite restaurant! This is a uniquely fantastic place. If you're looking for a good time while you eat amazing food, with happy upbeat live music, incredible wait staff, and a truly positive environment, this is the place for you. A real gem. It's hard to explain the atmosphere here because I've never been anywhere like it in the KW or Guelph area. It has a welcoming and cozy feel. Sort of upscale but not remotely snooty. It's like dinner and a show where the food and service are 5 star, but also with a fun family vibe. Aside from the utterly fantastic atmosphere, our meals were perfect - both the Hanger Steak & Pappardelle were world class, and the cheesecake was the freshest we've eaten anywhere. Also, I never call people out but, Doug, our waiter, was the best we've had anywhere (including the most elite restaurants we've been to). The owners were also extraordinary kind, welcoming, and just all around fantastic hosts. I can't recommend this place enough. Definitely give it a try.

By and far the best restaurant around... Amazing atmosphere, the music is always stellar, the service is great and the food is fantastic! It really can't get any better.

My mother and sister and I went here last night for the first time. The food was so tasty and great options. Live music was a nice touch to the beautiful atmosphere and service was excellent. The owners took care of us, Darren and Maria. Very pleasant and professional. We had a great evening out and will be returning. Such a nice place for a date night or outing with family and friends in a classy place.

It is hard to know where to start with this place, in the best way possible. The food was absolutely delicious. I had tried the mussels appetizer which i highly recommend if you are big into seafood. It had a lot more flavour than I was expecting and the bread alongside went perfectly. For main dishes, their pasta and gnocchi are DEFINITELY worth a try, especially if you are looking for something very filling. To top it off, the customer service was the best out of every other restaurant I have been to. People are always at the front to greet you and help you. Oppose to what other reviews have said, the food came out pretty quickly and the owners, waiters and waitresses were super warm. Overall, an amazing place to spend a meal with live music and unforgettable food and service.

Manhattans is truly a gem in Guelph! We have never been disappointed and enjoy each and every time we go. Maria and Darin are extremely hospitable and always take time to sit and catch up. Their staff and kitchen geniuses can't be beat! No matter what menu item you choose, they are cooked to perfection and so flavourful. The martinis are delicious and a full portion. Wine selection is beautiful. No cover charge for the amazing music selection on the weekends. We love the low romantic lighting and relaxing atmosphere. Looking forward to our next date night!!

Such a good spot. The staff was so nice. The kids enjoyed the pizza. I had the lamb shank and honestly so good! Will come back again for sure.
