Had Manos deliver lunch at the office today. Man, I need to get back over there for a sitdown dinner again sometime soon.
If you've never tried it, you should give it a shot. A good local establishment.
Figured I'd share that, since TT tends to get into restaurant discussions quite often.
(At least this isn't another Mexican restaurant comment.). ;)

We LOVE Manos. The atmosphere is so quaint... seeing the open kitchen when you walk in... Manos is often there walking around saying high to the customers... the patio is open in the summer so you can eat outside which is great. I love that place... been going there pretty much my entire life. Never had a bad meal.
The bar above Mano's is great too! It's call the ATTIC, and you can order the full Mano's menu while their kitchen is open, plus enjoy great drinks. I was just there last night! :)
I hate Manos. The last, and only time in there the tables smelled like sour dish towel. In fact, the whole place wafted the essence of "old lady house". Food was greasy, silverware was cruddy, and the neighborhood is full of ganstas.

Manos is a great restaurant! Went there years ago and, for whatever reason, got away from that practice - probably too busy chasing non-existent good Mexican ;-).
We've recently re-discovered Manos and have been having some great meals there. For the beer drinkers in the crowd, give the Mythos lager a try. If you like it, you can find it a Joseph's Beverage Center.
One of the great things about Manos is that you can have a light meal, something in between or stuff yourself with the varied menu.
Been making Manos a pre-Hens game habit lately. Not as crowded as all the joints around the ballpark and, IMHO, much better food anyway.
justareviewer, bummer! i've never sniffed the tables but i'll take your word for it.
Last time we went for lunch my mousakka was inedible. The supposed "beschamel" sauce was coagulated and gelatinous.
