My favorite Manuel’s memory does not actually take place at Manuel’s, but at the neighboring movie theater. Whenever I go to the movies, I order my Manuel’s-to-go, and I take it for my movie concessions. People sitting around me always ask where I got the fried shrimp or comment that they had not seen rellanos

My wife and I knew that a friend of ours was on a blind date at Manuel’s. We decided to slip into the restaurant to spy on them. We hid at the bar and noticed that the date was off to a slow start, as they were both experiencing a cringey, awkward silence. My wife

#love Manuals We started eating at the location on 3rd street over 40 years ago. We moved near Duval and 183 and discovered the Jollyville Road location. The food and service have always been excellent and we hope to be eating at some Manual’s for another 40 years. Keep up the good work. #Manuals40th

Dear Manuel’s – my family has been eating at the Great Hills Manuel’s for more than two decades.

It has become

#LoveManuels #Manuels40th #HappyAnniversary to our favorite restaurant! This is a love story 40 years in the making! I was job hunting in 1985 and stopped in at Manuel’s on Congress. The owners happened to be at the bar when I walked in. We chatted for a few minutes and I wrote my name & phone

I was 18/19 living in the city and all my roommates worked at Manuels. I would see the money they would make and all the fun things that they would experience. I was a baby when I lived in Austin. Somehow they managed to get me hired on as a hostess. If it wasn’t for
