I went with my wife for our wedding anniversary dinner. The atmosphere was warm and friendly the waiters were welcoming. Everything we ordered was on point and the portions were satisfactory. Their food was excellent. And I would visit again and definitely recommend.

Very good, authentic Sardinian) Italian food. Excellent friendly service and tasteful (very soft) music; in off hours very cozy and peaceful.

Nice, quiet brunch spot. Mussels and French onion soup were fabulous. The breakfast American was just ok. Bacon was too thick and double-fried. No bread with eggs which I would have liked. Would return, however. Very pretty and bright interior.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Manhattan Valley with a group of friends, and it was a fantastic experience all around! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly by the staff, and the service remained top-notch throughout our meal. We started with the vegetable samosas, and they were absolutely delicious. Crispy on the outside and packed with a flavorful filling, they were perfectly complemented by a variety of chutneys that added an extra layer of depth to each bite. The chutneys ranged from tangy to sweet, and each one paired wonderfully with the samosas. For the main course, we ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala and Shrimp Masala, along with rice and garlic naan. The flavors were bold and fresh, and each dish was made to perfection. The chicken in the tikka masala was tender, and the shrimp in the masala was juicy and succulent, absorbing the rich, aromatic spices. The rice was fluffy, and the garlic naan—soft and warm—was the ideal accompaniment to soak up all the flavorful sauces. The food was so good that the table went quiet for a bit, everyone too absorbed in their meal to speak! But beyond the food, the service was excellent, with attentive staff making sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. Overall, this was a memorable dining experience, and I highly recommend Manhattan Valley for anyone in the area looking for fresh, flavorful Indian cuisine with great service. We’ll definitely be back!

Wonderful dinner as always! Food came out quickly and deliciously. We had the gnocci and the eggplant pizza. We also had two aperol spritzes.
