A Mano Kitchen & Bar

First off, super friendly/cordial service! Comfortable, atmosphere! Fried Calamari to perfection! And when I say perfection, I mean it! Light crispy exterior, with perfectly cooked Calamari (squid). And the sprinkle of sweet caramelized onions are to die for! Who would have thought!? Fire roasted little neck clams, amazing! Lightly seasoned with fresh parsley, butter, oil, garlic, etc.... with enough liquid to soak up with their fresh baked breads! We had fresh local corn/crab ravioli (torteloni) in a light oil/butter/garlic, and Pappardele with sauteed squash blossoms. A wonderful medley of Italian flavors! I can't wait to try out their wood fired pizzas! Prosciutto & arugula pizza? Fuggetaboutit!!! The only thing that would please me more is if they had a balsamic glaze to drizzle on top of it!! stay tuned!!!

Back home visiting the family and we came here for dinner. It was my first time here. The food was so good! I had the NY strip with smashed potatoes and greens. The steak was seasoned and cooked perfectly. The potatoes had such a great texture and taste to them. The greens were lightly seasoned and complimented the rest of the dish. The service was very good. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Save room for dessert! Both had the specials so won't go into too much detail. Both were well balanced and amazingly tasty. My dessert was lemon, tart, and perfect. Hers was coffee through and through and decadent. Will save this for consideration at any special occasion.

Based on the food and service this place is 5 stars all day long! Delicious, well portioned food with great flavor and high quality. Attentive service and staff! Highly recommended in the summer, spring and fall. The only downside was the frigid temperature we had to consume the delicious Italian food in. It was frigid - my fiancé needed to wear her Canadian Goose Jacket for the entire meal, after telling our waitress how cold it was and if we could move she said 'it's very cold everywhere, I'm sorry!' When it comes to the Rib Eye, it was a perfectly cooked steak with delicious flavor. This is the best Steak I've consumed in Syracuse. The twice fried potatoes were crispy and creamy all in one. The calamari had amazing flavor, lightly breaded and extremely fresh and tasty! We will certainly be back but not on a cold Syracuse Winter night.
