Manzoni - (Near San Francisco, CA)

Marilyn Gutierrez Let me start off by saying that this place is absolutely amazing! We came to celebrate my sister’s birthday and we were encountered with the best service ever from Bader. Not only was he our server but also the chef!! You definitely taste the love in the food and overall the environment and energy he gave us felt like we were at home. Told us that whenever we stop by it’ll be like visiting family and it really meant a lot! Definitely coming back ☺️

Vahe Yacoubian Went here for a private event - Half the bar was booked for a private event and the other half was for public dining. Appetizers are good - had the chicken nachos. Beers were ok - got a bunch of your traditional stuff I don’t think there was something that knocked my socks off. I think the real appeal of this place is the location. It’s right on brands and has indoor and outdoor seating. People are very friendly and the staff are very respectful.

Mike Fein Fine dining does not get any better. This was close to absolute perfection. We arrived with reservations at their opening, and were promptly seated at my favorite location, a table in the back corner. A young man filled our water glasses without spilling a drop. Our server, Conner, recommended a wonderful Italian-produced Pino Grigio, which was light and fruity with a nice finish. There is not much better than a server who is like a sommelier. The wine list is quite diverse, and certainly adequate in reds, whites, and sparkles. We got warm, fresh bread, and breadsticks, while we contemplated the menu. The cuisine is strictly meat and pasta, no seafood, but there are many great choices. My wife got the outstanding Minestrone and the Lasagna Parmigian, our niece got the Ravioli de Radiccio, and I got the Escargot, and the Rack of Lamb. Pardon my lack of Italian language here. The escargot were large, in a tremendous traditional butter and garlic sauce, where the bread came in very handy. The lamb was perfectly cooked to order. I have never seen a lasagna presented like this before. All presentations were meticulous, as I am sure Chef Rafael demands. Dinner was nicely paced. While we were too stuffed to order off the homemade dessert menu, Conner did bring out some complimentary, lemony, wonderful Italian cookies. We were also greeted at our table by an elegant, gracious lady, Signora Mastro, who reminded me very much of Chef Andrea, former owner of the great New Orleans restaurant the bore his name for over 30 years. There is something about the Italian people, no matter where we go, that drives them to respect their tradition, and that seems to always make a difference. Signora Mastro is truly a culinary Maestro.

Rob S Best OC Thai place! Name one better. Orange chicken-mmm good! Light batter, strong sticky orange tate. Thai Basil grilled pork mmm Great! Just spicy enough. Pad Thai- consistantly good Street Thai really good.

Nick Wren The gyros are always reliable, they dont skimp on the meat and veggies, and speaking of the veggies, theyre always very fresh. If you can handle some spice, their homemade hot sauces are excellent. The mango hot sauce pairs perfectly with the tzaziki gyro. Watch out for the "original" flavor hot sauce, its not for beginners. Slow-building long-lasting burn from fresh habaneros (which you can actually taste, they have a lovely sweet fresh fruity flavor). I also cant forget to mention the staff members were very friendly and kind.

Sophia H Came in for Happy Hour for the first time and right off the bat, the staff was super friendly and welcoming. The guy who took our order was awesome. He recommended a few flavors for us to try and really helped narrow things down. The wings here are way bigger than the ones at Wingstop. Im a big fan of dry rubs, and honestly all their dry rub options were fire. The original Buffalo was perfect! Nice and buttery with a good little kick, without that strong vinegar taste. We also grabbed a plate of Hawaiian BBQ, and it was delicious! The place was clean, chill vibes, and the prices were pretty reasonable too. Im definitely coming back to try more flavors. Might have to stop by on game days too!
