By far the best Mediterranean restaurant I have even been in Cyprus.
Every single dish is thoughtfully crafted and utterly delicious.
Green salad with figures and parmigiano was wonderful, thick tzatziki, creamy feta with chilly.
Mushrooms gratin with sun-dried tomatoes was exciting balance of taste.
Lamb shank was slowly cooked to absolute perfection. Love it!
Sea bass was properly seasoned and cooked.
Simple yet sophisticated mix of Greek and Italian food.
Excellent wine list with a lot of local wine. Tried house wine, both red and white was very good.
The prices are very reasonable.
Exceptionally open service by waitress Sanita and Chief of the restaurant was making sure we enjoy our dinner.
Cyprus friendliness at its best and it is a perfect place to relax.
I would definitely recommend and truly hope I will have another chance to eat at this friendly place.

Been to this restaurant at least three times with different people and at different times of the year. Always excellent food! The chef comes out to check that you are happy with the food, it is obvious he takes great pride in its quality. On this occasion we asked our waitress for a recommendation on salads, which resulted in us eating the most amazing salad, who knew a salad could taste so amazing! Would always recommend booking as it is usually very busy. Great food and people, couldn't ask for more.

We visited the restaurant three times during our 9-days family holiday in Cyprus in July 2022. The first visit was a lucky coincidence, we chose the restauran the first evening upon our arrival as it was close to our accommodation and the rest of our visits were because of the excellent quality of the food and the service. The chef and the Latvian waitress are very welcoming people and provide one of the best food in the whole Cyprus island. We tried several restaurants in Cyprus and this one was for sure the best. The menu is pretty wide and includes the childs dishes too, so evebody can choose something. The main dishes were accompanied by very tasty potato mesh, boiled vegetables and celery-carrot mesh/souce. I especially reccommend trying the rocket salad with dried figs, dried tomatoes and parmesan! Highly reccommend visiting the restaurant. We will definitely come back once being again in Cyprus.

Visited with partner on back of TA .
On the good side welcome front of house good and hose red wine excellent.
However my main of pork chops with BBQ was nicely served with small portions s of well cooked vegetables there was no need for 2 large portions of meat.
For dessert tried the Panna Cota sadly this was tasteless with a strawberry sauce that was so sweet you could not detect the fruit flavour.
So still room for improvement.

We enjoyed a 2 course meal here and you could tell the food was top class. I had the vegetarian ravioli and my sister had the steak for mains and we both rate it 10/10. I loved that the chef Costas even came and spoke to us after we had finished eating. You can tell he's very passionate about his food.
The restaurant brings a modern take on cuisine of the Mediterranean region, so his dishes are neither Greek nor Italian, but a mix of all the influences as well as the ingredients that are in season. A great selection, would totally recommend!
Word of advice, try to book in advance as tables are limited.

It was nice to see the restaurant busy now that is open again.
Food & service are always good.
We had the Sunday lunch which resembles a mini meze.
Salad, homemade dips & toasted bread, grilled houllomi, gratinated mushrooms,
Lamb shank & a large plate of grilled chicken breast & pork with homemade barbecue sauce, roast potatoes & mixed vegetables.
Desert was panocata however as it was my partner’s birthday Kostas made him sticky toffee pudding.
16-50 euro
Saw a few doggie bags going home as portions are generous ( I had one )

Returned here after 3 years and delighted the food is as good as ever. By far the best place to eat in this area and no more expensive than nearby tavernas. It has a good selection of dishes, we enjoyed the sea bass, BBQ pork and chicken in mustard sauce - all were beautifully presented and delicious.
Booking is essential- they are very COVID safe and there is space between diners. Not currently open every evening so check.

Our favourite restaurant during our recent visit to Cyprus. We were pleasantly surprised by the unique and varied dishes on offer, non of which we would classify as "traditional". However the quality was always top class and the service excellent. Worthy of special mention is their house wine which is excellent and reasonably priced. Heartily recommended.

Excellent restaurant which we highly recommend. Our large family group of 11 had such a great meal with the chef's suggestions of different dishes which kept on coming out. Such good value, we couldn't eat it all and they packed up the left overs for us to enjoy the next day! Very friendly service.

Service was excellent but dissapointed with the meal. I had the lamb shank which was sringy and flavourless compared to one I'd had within walking distance, there really was no comparison in flavour and succulence. I have to say that the cauliflower and cougettes were coked to perfection but the mashed potato lacked the flavour of butter but the pureed squash was flavousome. The sauce was nondescrpt.
My partner had the panne cotta with sauce and I had a taste - stodgy blancmange and no flavour in the red sauce.

Behind an unassuming entrance is one of the best restaurants we have experienced along the Cypriot west coast. A menu of Mediterranean cuisine, each dish is prepared with noticeable care and every guest treated as a welcomed friend. The halloumi with fruit compote starter was so good we came back twice for it! Gently baked sea bass, slowly cooked lamb and boneless pork chops were all delicious. Thank you Kostas and team- we will be back!

Easy to review #manzanillo, simply the best dinner I have enjoyed in Cyprus for quite some time. Great culinary skills, balanced flavors, very tasty dishes served with attentive service. Can’t fault it, have been meaning to visit for 2 years, will now be a favorite.

Love it! Tried restaurant for the first time, after noticing it on many previous trips but never trying. Will definitely be going back.
Service was great, not too fussy but around when needed. Chef visits table to ensure you have enjoyed food and is really engaging.
Prawn Saganaki is a must to try, gorgeous! Every dish was fresh and very tasty. Complimentary bread and oil on arrival and melon after dessert. Left feeling very full!
Would recommend!

Back again for our holidays, spent some time at Manzanilo because we had been waiting for 12 months for the superb food that Kostas prepares and cooks.
Although restricted by Covid 19 the restaurant was as full as the restrictions allowed for the days we visited.
The food was once again top class, freshly cooked and well presented.
Will be back in 2021 and already counting the days and tasting the remarkable food.
