Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Came here for my birthday and the food was so good I ordered a second bowl of pasta…and I’ve never ordered a second serving of anything before! And I don’t know how they make cheese and tomato sauce taste so good…their sourdough bread was also amazing. Their new cocktail was so unique and tasty too. The staff wrote an adorable little birthday card to top it all off!No other place does pasta better than here."
"My first time to a mano and every minute made it better and better. We made a reservation the day before for a Tuesday night and to our delight it was half priced wine bottles! We enjoyed a delicious white recommended by our server. The specials of the night included an antipasta platter with a jalapeño spread that I’m still thinking about and I order the dinner special which was a delicious shrimp pasta dish with a marinara cream sauce. Our server was so lovely. Took time to celebrate my family as we were celebrating a new job. Even treated us to a tasting of their house made limoncello after our delicious dessert. Our plates were basically licked clean. I’d be back every Tuesday if I lived in the city!"
"Delicious food and drinks! The espresso martini (I can’t remember the actual name) was extra foamy which was perfect! It did take a little extra time for our food to come out so expect to be here a decent amount of time if you order multiple courses."
"The portions are slightly small but the taste is really good. What brought me here was the fresh pastas made in house and gluten free options. I went here for my birthday dinner. The beet salad was full of flavor. I didnt get pics of the scallop pasta but it was excellent - tasty, freshly made, and gluten free! And the flour less chocolate cake melts in your mouth. I was not at all disappointed. The ambiance was cute with indoor and outdoor seating options. I would definitely come back."
"We didn’t have a reservation and were told to wait an hour for a table, but it ended up being 20 minutes. The servers were very attentive and made sure we were well taken care of. The pasta selection was great, but the seasonal cheesecake desert they had was amazing."
"Quite possibly the best Italian restaurant we’ve been to as born and bred New Yorkers (bonus for also offering gluten free options and being so careful about it). We made reservations to celebrate our babymoon and let me tell you it exceeded our expectations. Y husband has a severe gluten allergy and they were so careful with the dishes, even offering to give him gluten free bread along with my regular bread (obviously separated) when we shared the burrata as our appetizer. My husband also ordered the gluten free carbonara and we shared a chocolate torte. He has had no reactions (it usually happens an hour after he eats but it’s been almost 8 hours and he’s as happy as can be). As for me I had the chicken Parmesan with a side of fusilli. Was it expensive? Yes but for the quality of the food, and service (shout out to Isaac) - it was well worth it. They even brought out non alcoholic champagne for me to celebrate our first baby! The attention to detail and care definitely made our experience at a mano so special."
"Dinner with friends and I had the classic Carbonara & fig salad. Still 5 stars, but I don’t realize how sugary and sweet the espresso martini was. I’m pretty sure there was coffee ice cream in it. Would 100% avoid- far too sweet"
"Just a wonderful little Italian place. Came here on their $10 Tuesday deal and got the cacio e pepe and fig salad. Also shared the tomato basil soup and focaccia. The focaccia is freshly baked every morning (according to our waitress) and it definitely tastes that way. Loved it alongside the tomato soup. The cacio e pepe felt a little heavy on the pepper for me but that my personal taste. I admittedly also don’t eat Italian food often so I wouldn’t know an authentic pasta but this is definitely a good pasta. The fig salad is maybe my favorite dish. It’s a little sweet in the best way, making a salad a pleasure to eat. Some nuts and dried figs and small cubes of cheese, rounded off with the light dressing. Perfect."
