    The food is okay, I have eaten here 3 times and have never been blown away.. the Menu is small and has few choices which I dont care for, also the place is usually packed and very loud, so not good for dinner conversation...however it is open late which is a plus for those who get late starts in the evening...and the prices are very inexpensive..

    This establishment has been around for over 40 years and has food to die for. It's not necessarily fancy or trendy, but it has definitely stood the tests of time. I compare all Mexican food to this restaurant; they set the bar high. They have had the same servers for years so I am known by name, as well as my drink and food preferences, which is nice! Enjoy a day at Seacliff beach and then stroll up to Manuels for a margarita and beef enchiladas!

    I love Manuel's and have been coming here for years. My whole family and I love this place and celebrate most birthdays here. It is a great local spot. The ambience can work for either either a casual dinner with friends/family or "date" material. The food is delicious and the staff is amazing. I have to finish this review because now I'm craving Manuel's but am currently 90 miles away, ugh! I wish I could eat Manuel's every day.

    Good place, I'm going with 4 stars on this one since they do what they do, very well. If you are looking for very good Mexican food in a clean place with a good crew, try this. I was quite impressed. Be advised, don't expect high end Mexican cuisine, but do expect the basics to be executed quite well. Enchiladas, tacos, rice, beans, chips and salsa were all spot on. For a good carbo fix you can't go wrong. Not sure why they do not have any beer on draft, but that is just me. Definitely would go out of my way to visit.

    Great place, the carne taco plate is a favorite. This place is a great late night place in Aptos, opened until 12 everynight. The staff is friendly helpful staff. I wouldn't say it's my favorite mexican place, but Aptos has pretty limited restaurant options so check this place out the next time you want a local Aptos meal.

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
