Manuelito's Mexican Restaurant - Mexican restaurant in Tarzana - 18612 Ventura Blvd, USA

Good service and clean place. Seems like some of the older reviews are for a different location. I’d give this place another shot

Craving Mexican food we discovered this literal hole in the wall just walking back to the car. Best decision we made was to stop by and check it out. Immediately as you walk in you are greeted by the charming traditional decor and homey warmth you get when visiting Mexico. The food was fairly price but absolutely delicious. And our waitress Ana was beyond amazing. We have decided this will be our new go to. If you like Authentic Mexican foods and flavors you must check this place out. Thanks you guys at Manuelito’s for an amazing experience!!

This place always comes up as an option in a delivery service provider and decided to try them. Their wet burrito was ok, while the sauce was flavorful. The pozoles, on the other hand, was incredibly disappointing. It lacked flavor and the flavor it did have tasted like excess fat from the meat. After dumping about a quarter cup of Rooster Sauce (cayenne pepper hot sauce) the soup came to life. At least all the toppings supplied were fresh. They did have other soups I wouldn't mind trying but do not believe I could justify the cost of getting it delivered. Maybe when I'm near by....maybe.

My husband and I stumbled upon this hole in the wall and we were not disappointed. We bought two taco plates de lengua asada and carnitas made with tortillas made by hand ✨ I also bought a sope (which was HUGE) and an horchata. Pros: Tortillas made by hand were authentic and delicious 🤤, lengua was juicy (felt like it was steamed) and could be even better with a tad bit of salt. Asada was okay good seasoning but lacked juicy ness. Carnitas was light and flavorful while still maintaining some crunch. Highly loved the horchata, it’s light and not too sugary. The sope was really big (see pictures) I was expecting a small sope but this could of been it’s own meal. Cons: Service is a bit slow, I was there alone and still took some time but not too bad. Seasoning on some items require a little bit flavor. Overall my husband and I will be coming back to try more things on the menu.

This was my first time to this cozy and colorful Mexican restaurant that caught my curiosity while searching Google. The ladies working there where very friendly and engaging to customers. The food is delicious! Carnita plate, Carne asada plate, and Beef soup were on point. Seasoned, delicious, and large portions. Diffently will return for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Highly recommend.

Delicious, very flavorful sauces and salsas, corn tortillas are great, vegetarian options, and prompt service. Charming interior. I said completely the wrong thing in Spanish and she just let it slide, no acknowledgement at all.

Excellent food and service. Got two tacos asada and one tripa. Horchata was also excellent.

Very good authentic Mexican food! The Menudo is sooo good!
