Manhattan Of La Jolla – Reviews, photos, menu, opening hours Claimed

Truly enjoyed the dinner. Lobster ravioli had an amazing spicy sauce, try it!

Excellent atmosphere. Live music is a great mood setter and lifts the dining experience. Brittany, our server, was an absolute joy and made the experience all the more enjoyable. Food was excellent (I had the lobster bisque, and also the …

Old style New York Italian steak and chop restaurant. The 1950’s decor is classic, right down to the wood paneling and art work. Excellent Ceaser salad. Very good scallop main course. Calamari was served with a nice, spicy sauce, but was a little tough. Attentive wait staff.

Delicious food. Picture is the Manhattan Combo. Lobster ravioli, veal manicotti, shrimp scampi. We had our food delivered to us to our hotel room at the Empress Hotel. 👌🙂 …

Great food, great bar, fantastic entertainment. We went to hear Roman Palacios and we’ll go back for the food and drink.

We love this place and come here often. The food is consistently delicious, drinks are great, the atmosphere is sophisticated, and live music with dinner is the perfect accompaniment.

Big props for Britney & Manny. Veal Chop is Zagat rated for a good reason: the quality is extremely high. While staying at The Empress hotel in which this restaurant is located, I also enjoyed Caesars Salad prepared table side, Gnocchi, …

This is hidden inside a hotel in La Jolla San Diego. It’s upscale Italian. There was live music with a lounge singer. I had the veal Marsala, lobster bisque and I highly recommend the Ecstasy desert which is White chocolate gelato with liquor and raspberries. It’s more filling than it looks.

Can’t skip the lobster ravioli, and the piano bar the music is to dance all night long, where else can you have the combo of exquisite food, and live band, upscale people

We were really surprised! Just here on a layover and dropped in to The Manhattan, and damn. So glad we decided to eat here!
ALL the staff we met is awesome, super attentive and sincere; from the Hostes up …

I had my wedding dinner here in their private room and EVERYTHING turned out fabulous. The staff was amazing, the food was so yummy and every detail was perfect. I could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you Manhattans for making my night extra special. We’ll be back to celebrate our anniversary with you all.

We had a party of 10 last night that included 4 generations from our family. The service from Brittany was fantastic and the food was outstanding! Real deal Italian coming from a Sicilian critic. Highly recommend and know they are genuine people taking care of your family. Will return again!

Upscale dining experience. The service is very attentive. Great Cosmo. My dinner was exceptionally delish!! I had the Linguine Bolognese and highly recommend it. Also their fresh bread comes to your table truly fresh out of the oven, warm and wonderful. A bit pricey, but it is upscale dining 🙂

Everything about this place was amazing. The he food was to die for. The service was top notch. The live music was a very enjoyable treat. Wish we had something like this back home. Would totally recommend!

Fun dinner. Live music. Great service and food.

Large portions of delicious food with friendly and helpful servers. Live music brings it together.

Dinner on Wednesday evening with unexpected fabulous jazz trio. Great time, excellent birthday celebration. Recommend highly.

1st time dining in last night, 1 time previous to-go: food & cocktails were clearly 5/5, live music 5/5, booth 5/5, only sad & bad thing last night was my wife’s OVERcooked $60. Filet Mignon…wifey clearly requested MEDIUM (pink in center & …

Manhattan’s in La Jolla is a fabulous place to have a cocktail, chat with that special person. Great live music. Food is amazing. Staff gave great customer service. Meant the owners. Came by to our table. That was super nice. Romantic. …

Headstones aren’t cheap, even then I’d splurge the extra bucks if that was the only way I could inform the world that this place is worth the stop …

I’m obsessed with this restaurant. Maybe it is because I’m an east coaster and miss NYC but this may be my favorite restaurant in San Diego. On Wednesday nights they have a live pianist and singer who perform Sinatra songs. There is a …

This is amazing place. I visit it every time I come to La Jolla. Every time I try something new from their menu and each time it is amazing. So far, I would strongly recommend NY steak with garlic and halibut. Try their vines, but ask …

By far one of the best dining experiences to be found in San Diego. The food is excellent and the service is outstanding.
This is my go to restaurant for date night and when friends come in from out of …

Simply my favorite place in San Diego for 15 years. It is pure old school class and the food is fantastic. Whether it be your anniversary or closing a big business deal, this place can’t be beat.

It is overpriced.
The food is good but not excellent. Service is ok.

Great ambiance with live jazz music, friendly staff, tasty food. A bit pricey considering the overall quality, I’d however happily come back again if the live music was on again.

Old school Italian restaurant located in the Empress hotel. We were there on Wednesday night and they had folks singing Frank Sinatra in the bar area. The food was very tasty. Service was excellent.

The entire experience was beyond amazing. The 5 star rating doesn’t even begin to describe the establishment, the food, or the staff. An absolutely gorgeous venue, well spaced, comfortable and intimate. The food was quite literally some of …

Desert is huge, rather smaller and better presentation
Stuffs are so friendly and sweet, good entertainment

Great restaurant all around. Had our wedding party in the upstairs room several years ago and everything was flawless. Great atmosphere and food. We go every year on our anniversary and when family or friends are in town.
