Don Manuel in New Jersey

"Excellent customer service, waitress there are very courteous and always checking on you if you need anything and make you feel well. Very nice presentation, the restaurant feels like a nice place to go with your family on a Sunday. Food was ok, could be better. I ordered rotisserie chicken and did not met my expectations. Seems to me was not ready. I feel food could have better presentations at the windows (buffet style)."

"Bought 2 chicken soup with white rice. Did not get the rice I paid for. Disappointed. The soups were great on a rainy day. The lady who attended to me was friendly and courteous but obviously not attentive. I should have checked but it was a simple order. Even tipped her."

"A True Gem of Authentic Latin Cuisine in Perth Amboy! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I absolutely love Don Manuel! This restaurant serves the most authentic South American and Latin specialties I’ve had in the area. From the moment you walk through the door, you’re greeted with warmth and genuine hospitality that makes you feel like part of the family. The menu is filled with incredible dishes that transport you straight to Latin America with every bite. Whether it’s their perfectly seasoned mofongo, succulent churrasco, or rich and flavorful paella marinera, everything is prepared with care and authenticity. You can truly taste the passion in every dish. What really sets Don Manuel apart, though, is the staff. They are incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready with a smile and helpful recommendations. Their genuine warmth creates such a welcoming atmosphere that makes every visit special. The cozy environment is perfect for enjoying a meal with family or friends, and the service is consistently excellent. This is the kind of place that doesn’t just serve food—it creates an experience. I can’t wait to go back again! If you’re looking for authentic Latin cuisine served with heart and soul, Don Manuel is an absolute must-visit. Highly recommended!"

"The ladies at Don Manuel Mexican Restaurant are simply amazing. They donated enough food to feed our hungry construction crew lunch while doing storm cleanup after Hurricane Helene. And the food was amazing!! Many of our employees came up to tell us how much they enjoyed the food! 5 Stars!!!"

"We decided to come down by the water from Rahway to get some good Spanish Food. I saw some good reviews for Don Manuel and I’m glad they lived up to the reviews. The food was delicious, the pernil was amazing. They give you a very generous portion of both rice and meat. I will definitely come back and try other things in the future."

"I recently tried Dominican food for the first time, and it was truly a new experience for me. The dishes were incredibly flavorful and absolutely delicious. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helped us a lot, explaining many things and making us feel very welcome. They were genuinely kind and supportive. I highly recommend stopping by and experiencing it for yourself—even just once. You won’t regret it!"
