Wow, what a night! Huge thanks for hosting a dinner that not only survived my ultra-critical parents but also sailed through the murky waters of our family politics. Getting the gu...
est list right was like playing a game of Jenga in a windstorm.
My parents, who think they could be judges on Top Chef were absolutely delighted this time around. They raved about the food, the ambiance, and only grumbled about our Uncle Rick. To us, the evening was nothing short of stellar.
Big applause to your whole crew for pulling off such a seamless experience.
After dining in a couple times, we decided to book the Private Dining Room at Manuela to celebrate an intimate engagement party for 12. We have been obsessed with their menu since ...
the first we tried it, their drinks are to die for, and the staff are professional but friendly in a way that isn't overly formal. The room is covered in artwork and felt like I was eating in a quaint little greenhouse with the open windows and the sliding barn door for maximum privacy! Had a magical time, and can't wait to come back.
Pro- tip, come before 6 pm to have time to check out the galleries and the garden (with chickens!!) that they share the space with.
We held a small, intimate cocktail hour & dinner for our family here for our engagement party. It was wonderful. The food was amazing & plenty, and the staff was super attentive. E...
veryone from the host to the bussers were kind and accommodating. Our family also loved the space. We’d been here for brunch before, but had somehow missed the garden, which is massive. There are chickens, and it was spring so everything was in bloom. So, so lovely. We couldn’t have been happier, and we’ll definitely be back if we ever have an occasion.
OMG!! The team at Manuela is a set of absolute pros! I was so anxious leading up to booking them for our wedding and what it would be like to have to manage someone, but they were ...
so courteous, and prepared throughout the whole process. They had everything planned out to a tee! They came in and did the job exactly as was expected we never had to check in with them because they just so on top of everything! and then, of course, the food and cocktails were PHENOMENAL!!! Exactly the same quality as what you get in the restaurant. I still have guests who talk about the biscuits and cocktails.... absolute chef's kiss!! And the bartenders were so much fun, they definitely helped set the party vibe! Ultimately, I am just so grateful to them, the team just made everything go off without a hitch. It made it so the day was exactly as it should have been. So magical and special.
My family and I always loved this venue, and we had no idea they did off site events. We contacted Evan with their events department and he was wonderful to work with. They were ab...
le to work with all allergies and preferences. Their bar team and cocktails were amazing. The bar staff and servers are all very knowledgeable and professional. The staff did not feel like typical catering staff as they all work with the company. Drinks and food were amazing and some of the best food I have had at a wedding. We got married in a downtown warehouse event space and the Manuela team was able to work with onsite equipment and executed a perfect meal. I had so many friends ask me who catered our wedding which was a hug compliment to us as myself and my husband are from a big Italian family and place a huge importance of providing a big amazing meal for our loved ones. Thanks again Manuela team!
