Great food and service. The sauces are delicious. Fun decor. The street corn is sweet but can be spiced up with one of their three sauces which they bring to the table.

Fantastic tacos! I see the stlHEADLINERS best tacos title is well deserved... if you can't decide, go with the pastor taco - you won't be disappointed! Can't wait to try something new next time! Also, the place is very clean, decor is nice and the staff is extremely welcoming!

I had never actually been to the brick and mortar Tacos el Manny location. I have only ever had the food truck at Taco fest, etc. I'm so glad I got to check it out! The staff was friendly and very patient with our large group. The birria is amazing! I got the quesabirria because I just HAD to. One of my favorites. I cannot wait to try the birria Ramen next time I go. Mouthwatering!!

been in there twice now 1st time had no idea what it was like. Second time I already knew it was like no other Mexican restaurant near me. it fabulous authentic Mexican recipe, so delicious both times I have been. Sincerely hope they have many years of continued success.

Nice, little place in Granite City. Very clean on the inside. Tacos were outstanding. We got different ones to try, and every one was super flavorful even after sitting for a while (we got our tacos to go and had some other errands to run before we got to eat).

Extremely limited menu for vegetarians. Ordered birria ramen and tacos and spouse gave it 5/5 stars. I had loaded fries with chicken and it was fine. 3/5. It was just fries, chicken, too much cheese, and a chipotle mayo. Guacamole needed adjustment at the table because it wasn't seasoned at all. Horchata was very good. Service was fine and reasonable time coming out of the kitchen.

This is real mexican food! The Carnita's and Birria tacos were fantastic. The workers were super helpful when we were ordering and we will definitely be back!
