Even on hot days the fans keep the place perfect for thier patio dining. Pizza and burgers are great, but the pear ravioli is freaking amazing. I personally really like the boozy lavender lemonade!

Our pizza was served quickly and was absolutely delicious. I believe we'll become regular customers!

My father-in-law and sister-in-law shared a pasta dish, Fettuccine Alfredo. My sister-in-law exclaimed, “Wow! This is so good! Usually pasta is heavy, but this is light!” To which my father-in-law added, “Oh wow, this is amazing! What’s in this sauce? I just can’t get enough of it!” Now onto my wife’s dish. She had the Pear and Cheese Fiocchi, and she loved it! She raved about how the pear, cheese, and pasta worked harmoniously together. As for me, I ordered a burger. Given that this is primarily a pasta and pizza place, I was pleasantly surprised by how well-executed the burger was. It was cooked exactly as I requested and was incredibly juicy—a truly fine burger. I opted for garlic fries on the side, and let me take a moment to emphasize this: when I think of garlic fries, I imagine a greasy, buttery mess. But these fries arrived perfectly clean and fresh, without the usual oil saturation. They were fantastically flavored and golden brown and crispy. I can't wait to come back and take some home! We decided to try a few desserts: key lime pie, tiramisu, and peach cobbler. The key lime pie was good, but I personally preferred my wife’s version—no offense to the chef! However, my father-in-law didn’t agree with me on that! The tiramisu was delightful; my sister-in-law particularly loved the espresso flavor and how vibrant it tasted. My wife also enjoyed it. Now, the peach cobbler was undeniably the best dessert I’ve had in a restaurant. I’m at a loss for words; if the ice cream on top could talk, it would say something like, “Take my breath away, and I’ll stop the world to melt with you!” My wife had to pause and roll her eyes in delight, while my mother-in-law said, “That’s the clear winner right there!” Overall, we absolutely loved this place. We visit the Delta once a year, and it's a shame we hadn't tried Manny's before. We will definitely be back next year for more!

They do tend to give you the wrong food in the takeout so keep an eye on what you get sent home. The meatballs might be by favorite, or the Cobb salad. Of course there?spizza too, but if you?re not into the bread there are plenty of great other options. Sometimes I see people sitting and eatingin the bar during the afternoon ?quiet? and that always looks like a really nice way to do it.

Favorite stop on our way to Rio Vista. Food and service has always been great. read more Favorite stop on our way to Rio Vista. Food and service has always been great.
