We have been coming to Many’s for years and have never been disappointed. The salad is great and the atmosphere is very relaxed. It is always our first stop at NSB.
Soul Patch:For years my family has made it a tradition to visit Manny’s on our first day of vacation. A tradition that has lasted for at least 2 decades. We love the restaurant, and it wouldn’t be a Florida trip without stopping by. Today’s experience has soured that.There was an employee hosting today (we call him “Soul Patch” since that is his most defining feature) who either lacks manners or is completely clueless to social cues. First of all we were sat at a table that had no room on one side, so per HIS instructions we scooted it over so our family could fit. When we moved the booth bench on the free space side, we partially blocked a walkway between sections. Soul Patch and the waitresses were walking through the space, so we assumed it was fine. While waiting for our food (our actual server was great, as most Manny’s employees are), Soul Patch approached us from the space because a gentleman with a wheelchair needed through. Us sitting on the bench tried to scoot it forward from where we were, but Soul Patch said, “That’s cute, but you’re actually going to have to get up.” I was in the middle of getting up and froze. I couldn’t believe he just said that to me. The audacity. After we got up we didn’t say a word because we were all too stunned to speak, and he moved the bench for the gentleman and said to him, “Sorry about that, they blocked you off here!” Like it wasn’t his idea for us to scoot back into the isle in the first place. At this point a few of us were fuming. He left walking his lanky, lame walk and the table next to us left so we were able to scoot our bench back out of the isle.The whole dinner, we were on edge. This place that used to bring us comfort became a hostile and anxiety causing environment. Again, our waitress couldn’t have been any nicer, she did an amazing job and was very attentive. We ended up getting our receipts, and in the past we used to bring our receipts to a register to pay so we got up looking for the register. Soul Patch at the host stand said, “7 exits in this place, can I help you find one?” We told him about how we were looking for the register and he told us how our server did that for us now, and called her over. He said “You can go back to your table, or you can stay and hang out with me, I don’t bite.” I responded, “We’d rather not,” and we went back to our table. My mother and her sister stayed to pay while the rest of us went outside, we did not want to be in his presence any longer.Never in my life have I ever been eager to leave Manny’s, this was a foreign experience for us. I hate to give this restaurant we love a one star rating, but as long as Soul Patch works there, it is a one star restaurant.
Nice rustic restaurant with bar. Food was excellent . We are there twice and both times the food was delicious! The menu has lots of options.
Don’t bother! Terrible pizza and wings. Frozen pizza has more flavor… in fact the dough tastes how the restaurant smelled - yuck! The wings were soggy. The bbq sauce was tasteless. Huge empty restaurant on a Friday night when I went in to pick up - should have been my clue!
I myself am not a huge salad fan. I’d rather starve.But Mannys Greek salad is a whole new ball game.I have been coming here for years, always get a Greek salad and a pizza. It’s so good I have dreams about it when I am back home.The place itself is outdated, but those sometimes can be the best. The food is always consistent. Staff is always friendly. Everytime I come back to NSB my first stop is Mannys ❤️
We got the Manny's special pizza. I have had better, but it was pretty damn good. We also got there Greek salad. The salad is amazing! We had fried mushrooms for an appetizer, and they were on point. Overall, a great dining experience.
First, unless like tostino pizza rolls, don’t order the pizza bites. Save your money regardless if you do, $10 for 12 tolls. Stromboli would have been tasteless without the cheese, and chicken dryer than a pile of sand you can find at the beach across the way. Wouldn’t recommend, nor visit this place again.
This place is a treasure in New Smyrna. Great pizza, salads, and beers on tap. Very efficient and great people working here.
We visited the restaurant at 7:15 on a Wednesday night. The waitress with a lip piercing immediately gave us unpleasantness and made us feel like we should not have come in. She continued her bad attitude throughout the visit regardless of how nice we were. Do not go here for dine in at night if you want a pleasant experience.
everything about the place is awesome but I love the pizza!
