Restaurants by Cuisine
“We live stopping in here when traveling through. We’ve wine tasted a couple times. Nice folks. Lots of choices. But what we really stop for is an opportunity to purchase some discounted wines. They always have a variety in clearance from $3-$20. We haven’t had a bad bottle yet from that and w usually get the $5 bottles. They welcomed my dog, gave him water. Great stop!”

“We live out of town and decided to try this cafe. The staff was extremely attentive and the food was top-notch. The owner was present and very personable, as well as helping the wait staff. I can’t say enough about the quality of food and how wonderful it tastes! The portions were large and our coffee mug stayed full. We will definitely make the drive to come back often.”
“I’m not from anywhere, unless you count Fremont, Ca. and my Parents always taught me to be open to trying new food, experiences, and gave me a Passion for Life, That being said, I tried it, I never liked it, until I tasted something called Halal prepared Lamb and Beef and Extra Long Grain Rice and more. I haven’t had anything that I didn’t like or wouldn’t re-order from this local Family Owned establishment! I think one of the most amazing things is trying to describe the flavors of the different spices that aren’t used and typical ““ American cuisine. I found this in my travels to other cultures with other foods where you ask the person to describe the flavor, and they can’t. They are at a loss for words. And so am I? But I know that I won’t be disappointed with anything that I order.”

“Sushi is great! Ample space and quiet setting when we went there. However......! I was extremely disappointed with the portion of their mochi ice cream! It's literally one small mochi piece cut in 4. It tastes great but portion is too little for the price.”
“Awesome crew! Perfect ambiance. Good food, good beer, good vibes and more! Come stop by and have a taste!”

“Nice outside area to let the grandson run. Lots of pups to entertain him too. Burger and fries were delicious and the hubby loved his Cubano sandwich”

“Amazing Mexican food! Their super burrito is absolutely delicious, packed with flavor, and comes in a generous portion. The ingredients taste fresh, and every bite is satisfying. If you’re craving an authentic Mexican burrito, this is definitely a great place to visit!
Highly recommend trying their super burrito. Great food, great taste, and definitely worth coming back for!

“Ordering and payment was easy. I gave her the theme my son picked for his party and she ran with it and it was spot on. He was amazed and the cake was beautiful! It came with cutting instructions and was boxed great to protect it. It tasted really good too. 10/10 would recommend. We will defiantly be reaching out for future events.”
“I drove by this place so many times before coming inside and boy have I missed out! The owner George and staff are very pleasant and always helpful. The atmosphere makes you want to sit for hours. Theres comfortable table seating, games, and a relaxing sitting area. I get the banana lumpia and Rose milk tea and it’s always magnificent. Try this place!”
“Their place is clean. There’s always parking but most importantly I’m a vegetarian and every single time I eat there I never get sick from cross-contamination which is really hard to eat out in public restaurants. I am a vegetarian for health issues and I’m very grateful that I don’t get sick there and they always know who I am and remember my order. They are a kind and fun and funny. I really recommend this restaurant.”
“I am blown away by the incredible flavors and exceptional service at Junoon Indian Cuisine! The menu offers a diverse range of traditional Indian dishes, and I was impressed by the variety of options. I started with the Non-Veg platter and I loved the Tikkas and Seekh kababs, which were tender and melt in mouth. For my main course, I opted for the Chicken Tikka Masala, which was cooked to perfection. The chicken was tender, and the creamy tomato sauce was rich and aromatic. What truly stood out was the quality of the ingredients and the care with which each dish was prepared. You must try their in-house made sweets too. The service was also top-notch, with friendly staff happy to answer questions and make recommendations. I'm so impressed with Junoon Indian Cuisine that I've already recommended it to friends and family. If you're a fan of Indian cuisine or just looking to try something new, this is a must-visit and one of the best Indian restaurant in Manteca.”

“I had an amazing experience at Mongolian! The food was delicious, and our server, Drew, was incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming. He made us feel comfortable and was very friendly throughout our visit. His great service really made the experience even better. Overall, I had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend.”
“I've lived in Manteca for almost 4 years and don't "go out" often (if ever ?)... I stopped in on a Friday night/Saturday morning (12 a.m.) I don't like going out on weekend nights (I'm too old to deal with out of control children) I just needed a drink and be on my way... I was able to sit at the bar as soon as I walked in... sports on the TV, pool tables, dart boards (wish I was in the frame of mind to enjoy) for a Friday night, I was comfortable... cops were on patrol, but for me that made me feel better ??♀️ service was quick, polite and heavy handed lol”
“Calling this little restaurant a taqueria seems a bit understating things. My wife and I are new residents in the area and have tried it a few times now. The last time we decided to eat there and the fajitas were served just like a full restaurant, only they tasted better than most. The service is always friendly here also and the decor is casual and clever. Great little hidden spot to try if you like good Mexican food but dont want to wait 30 minutes for a table at El Jardin or Las Casuelas.”
“Came here last week and got a asada burrito. Was so good. One of the best burritos in the area. Asada had great flavor. Tortilla was lightly grilled on the outside. It was big I had to save part of it for later. Stopped by today to try to the quesabirria's. It comes with cheese, meat, onions and cilantro. I got it without the onions and cilantro. I got 3 of them. They were tasty and I left full. Usually food is ready in about 5 minutes or less depending if others ordered in front of you. There's a couple tables to sit at under a canopy in the shade. Great food. Will be back for more.”
“THE FOOD IS 🔥
I’m new to the area from LA and I consider myself an Acai bowl snob and this place is better than my go to spot in LA. Also this is by far the ONLY place I’d go to for a salad in this area they are amazing! If you don’t like salads you should def go here lol I hope they never close this is the only healthy eating out spot in the area. Oh and the staff are
always really nice”

“Love the aray of matcha choices they have. I got the biscoff matcha and the Yemeni latte with the lotus cheesecake and tomato basil croissant. The drinks are delicious and the food is good. Can't wait to try more. Coffee date would be great. Parking is limited in the back.”
“In my first week of being here in the United States, I’ve tried the food from Oasis Market and it was outstanding. The food in China does not compete…I’d also like to commend the nice curly headed young man for such great service and hospitality, he made me feel welcome to this country! I’m definitely sharing this place to all new people I meet and to my friends back in Hong Kong !”
“Today was our first visit to Ruh’s Kitchen since its soft opening, and we’ve had a wonderful experience! We had tried their Amritsari Kulcha previously, and it was honestly one of the best we’ve ever had.
Their new location is beautiful, with a lovely dine-in space and a great ambiance. The service was excellent, and our server was wonderful, making the entire experience even more enjoyable.
We’re so happy to have discovered this spot and look forward to coming back to try more dishes. Highly recommend Ruh’s Kitchen for anyone looking for great Indian food, a welcoming atmosphere, and excellent service! ❤”
“Ordered Fries with meat.
Service -10/10 ( they forgot to put sour cream & cheese and I told them about it and they fixed it immediately.
Food -12/10 ( fries fresh & crispy and all the toppings were fresh and they have big cold station you can add topping by yourself)
Atmosphere-10/10 clean and great vibes.”
“Our family loves Iron Horse Deli, my grandson’s especially love the chicken strips, so crunchy and the shoestring fries! The chicken is so good and the food is always hot! My son is a fan of the BBQ burger with wedge fries. He says, it’s the best burger in town and best value, flame broiled! Their shakes are especially yummy! We’ve not been disappointed with any of their food. It’s dangerous living just three doors down. The staff is also awesome, friendly. Can’t add a photo because we ate it so fast!”
“After a long day in the water park, my wife and I were looking for a proper meal where we could actually sit down and decompress. Taking our three kids out to eat can sometimes be a logistical challenge, so being able to walk right up to Barnwood without leaving the Manteca resort was a huge plus.The atmosphere is a nice, rustic change of pace from the loud pool areas—it actually feels like a relaxing upscale pub. The food was surprisingly good for a family-focused hotel. We shared a few plates, and the adult menu had some genuinely good options like the hot chicken and craft cocktails. Just as importantly, they had a solid kids' menu that kept our two daughters and our son completely happy with the usual staples like chicken tenders and mac and cheese. I'm giving it 4 stars mostly because you are definitely paying premium resort prices, and the service was a bit slow during the dinner rush. That said, the sheer convenience of not having to strap everyone into the car after a long day of swimming makes it worth the cost. A great spot to grab a drink and a good meal before heading back to the room.”
“Awesome service by Sunny S.!!! I really appreciate all the attention she gave me and my family the whole time we were there. We will definitely go back there next time we're around Manteca.”

“Thank you Angelique! Beyond the five star rating. She tended to every difficult request that I asked. Extra-well done, no lettuce, corn on the cob instead of fries. To-go cup for my soda refill. Thank you for your fast accurate service. I wish that you were our server every time that we visit Chili's Manteca Good customer service is very hard to find. Keep up the good work, keep smiling. Please give this gal some recognition and kudo's.”
“We enjoyed the lunch specials. The price was very reasonable and the amount of food was very good too. Menu had a large range of choices. The only concern is the bathroom. It can use a look over. We do plan to visit again. Great service and pleasant waitress and owners.”
“So glad to have Guido's Pizza back! I have tried many pizza places in town since Guido's closed a few years back. Some of them are quite good, but Guido's is great. You can even get a pre dinner show from (Quik Stop Karen) if you happen to park in a space that she believes is hers. All around it's a great time. Make sure you bring your camera.”
“Daniel who works this Walmart location makes the best pizza! Yes it does matter who prepares the pizza believe it or not. I’ve ordered this same pizza numerous times (hand tossed pan, pepperoni, jalapeños, green peppers and onion) and when someone else makes it, it’s not that great. When Daniel makes it, it’s amazing every time!”

“Im surprised this is rated a 3.3
I used to live at the motel 6 for like 5 years and I always went here. I rarely had a mistake on my order and they wouldn't give me a problem if I told em it was wrong. Like maybe 3 or 4 times the burgers were too dry. But it was super busy and I know when it gets hectic during dinner rush. This location always busy too and I still get mostly hot food. And wait times weren't that bad. Came here the other day since I was in the area again and it was the same great quality and freshness. 🫡”
“My experience here at this Dairy Queen was amazing! I really love how chill this spot is, the wide array of food options and ice creams, it’s all very fun and I always enjoy stopping by and getting a nice dessert. My favorite item here are the blizzards always such a great dessert and I’d highly recommend it here to anyone in Stockton or Manteca, it’s a great spot and you won’t regret it!”

“Dine here for sure! Visit this place if you have a chance. We had been waiting for a good Italian restaurant to drop in Manteca since Strings left. Bella Mangiata did not disappoint. They took a small lot on Yosemite Ave and turned it into a beautiful, authentic, picturesque Italian experience. We started off with fresh warm bread with he traditional olive oil, balsamic and garlic dip and the calamari appetizer (which was perfectly presented). The cocktails from the bar prices may scare you, but the preparation of the drinks were on point and worth every penny. I had the limoncello martini and the lavendar bellini, both were superb! The chef's prepared the food with fresh ingredients (best tomatoes I have ever had, and I don't really like tomatoes) and the perfect blend of Italian seasonings. Their menu goes beyond the commercial Italian restaurants meals. Presented in Italian with English descriptions, you will get more than just the basic flavors found in the commercial establishments. The specials always sound amazing and it's difficult to choose because it's all so delicious. The presentation of the food was beautiful, I'm sad I didn't take pictures. The two times I visited, there was no wait and pretty quiet for a Friday and a Sunday evening. Only one thing I can say I wish for was staff with a little more Italian charisma, they seemed new at restaurant service and although good service, it took away the appeal of the total Italian ambience that the owner must have put a lot of work into. Also, the backgound music playlist needs to be a little longer as well, because we heard the same playlist 3 times while we were there.”
“We normally get our food to go, but this time we sat down to eat at the location. The cashier helped me carry my drinks to the table because I am using a cane. The place was clean, with a person continually cleaning. He also occasionally asked if everything was fine, and if he could do anything for us.”
“The Sinigang here is amazing! They also give you a lot of food to go with it! The owner usually offers me an extra cup of rice along with my two entree. I would recommend this place to friends and family. The owner is super friendly and would sit down and talk with me while I am hanging out. I didn’t mind the company. We had a good conversation about everything. I would come
Back here.”
“If you’re searching for the best butter chicken in Manteca, this is it. The gravy is creamy and perfectly spiced. Paired it with butter naan and it was honestly perfect.”
“This was our first time dining here, but definitely will not be our last. The entire experience was beautiful. The atmosphere and ambiance were exquisite, the service was top notch and the food and drinks were delicious!”
