text: After watching the prior tenant (Bellasera Bistro) try to open, and never really do so, we watched for what seemed to be months as Manny's tried to open as well. Finally they have done so, to great fanfare. Well, let's just say that they are at least open.\n\nThe first thing that's a bit odd about the place is that they are perhaps Manny's Mediterranean Cafe or Manny's Neighborhood Grille. I must confess that even after eating there, I really don't know which. There are signs for both in the place, and there is even one sign that suggests that perhaps both are available for franchising. I looked online, and it looks like there are a grand total of five locations, covering both concepts - and no clear indicator of which is which, or why. So your guess is as good as anyone's.\n\nWhen it comes to the decor, there are mediterranean-like pictures, that may be Ancient Greece, or just generic pictures, on the walls. There are LCD television sets tuned to European sports channels. And there are seats. That's about it. Not a lot of ambience.\n\nThe service is friendly, if not especially helpful, but that seems to stem from the company. For instance, if you look at the web site for help on the loyalty program, you'll find that it tells you about rewards. That's about it. No details or anything else. At one point we were told that you can get ten points per dollar, at which we should have jumped all over it, because at another point we were told a 10% off coupon, and another you get a $10 certificate after spending $100. Now I don't really have any idea, since even online it doesn't tell you much. It seems to revolve around a base ten numbering system. I thought those came from the Romans, not the Greeks, but it's all Mediterranean, so who knows?\n\nAnyway - when it comes to food, it's a bit of a mish-mash there as well. The quality of the dishes we tried was good, but it was an interesting combination, and definitely more Mediterranean than Greek. The hummus was tasty, and perhaps one of the best things we had. The Souvlaki was served with lamb, rather than a more common pork around these parts. The burger was fairly tasty, and the pizza was good, if a bit on the bland side. Generally portions were described as \"large\", but I'm not sure I'd go there - our teenagers easily took care of the shared calzone, and could have done so individually as well.
