"Cool spot in manteca. Tequila bar inside. Great staff. We were seated right away during Friday lunch. The food came out pretty fast and the wait was not long. I got the spicy steak tacos. Meat was tender. And the veggies were sautéed down so it was soft and flavorful. Not too spicy if you eat spicy. 2/5 spice level. Overall really good tacos 5/5. Large amount of rice and beans too. The complementary chips and salsa were good too. Ask for the flour tortilla chips. Those were way better than the corn one."

"HIGHLY RECOMMEND RESERVING THROUGH YELP AHEAD OF TIME. We had made our reservation about 45 min ahead of time and only had about a 5 min wait when we arrived. It's located in the beautiful Lincoln Center so if you do have to wait there's plenty to do nearby. Once seated we were quickly attended to. Not pictures is the delicious Pork Shoulder Torta, we ate it before any picture could be taken. However, everything was delicious. The French toast was extra sweet and the coffee was strong. Definitely will be returning with the rest of our kids as they have plenty of seating indoor and outdoor to accommodate all family sizes."

"Date night with the wife. I've heard that this restaurant was recently renovated. Indeed it looks very nice, they even added valet parking.Our server, Victoria was so informative and patient since I couldn't make up my mind. I ended up ordering the almond-crusted halibut. It was cooked to perfection, flaky and tasteful. It came with mashed potatoes and asparagus. All of this topped by a creamy sauce to complete the dish. My wife ordered the prime rib which she enjoyed very much. The meat was tender, juicy and no gristle found. At the end of the meal, we had no room for dessert since we also had the clam chowder soup as an appetizer. Overall this is a great restaurant for a date night or a special occasion. Nice job on the remodel Papapavlo's !"

"Amazing ambience with a soft grunge and earthy feel. The service is incredible and the drinks even more so. Alejandro, the lead bartender, makes a balanced and smooth drink and excels at customer service. While a comfortable and chill experience close toOpening it does ramp up the later it gets soYou're free to choose your own adventure based on the time you get here. Not to mention all the regulars love to rant and rave about the food pairings. I encourage all to try and give my experience a solid 10/10 with no foreseeable room for improvement."

"Fantastic food and beverages! I had the chicken and avocado crepe plus the lavender Lamarca cocktail. The crepe comes with a blue cheese sauce which sounds odd paired with chicken and avocado but I can promise that together it all works somehow, if you like blue cheese already. Loved it and my cocktail! My friend had the avocado toast with balsamic glaze added and it also looked delicious. Service from our waitress was excellent as well."

"Yesterday, twelve of us arrived at Cora for their new brunch menu.I had the foresight to call ahead as 12-people is quite a bit.When we arrived our table was set and we were off. A round of the delicious spicy bloody Mary's served with candied, jalapeno bacon as well as their in house made pumpkin butter coffee was a great start!As far as the group, I cannot recall what was ordered. I, however, ordered "who you calling chicken." George's (Chef, owner) spin on chicken fried steak.Oh my! Melt in your mouth although crispy and light! The gravy, is like honey to a bee... cannot get enough! I also order a short stack. The cakes had a crispy edge and the perfect pillow texture throughout!I order both knowing I could not complete them at the time, and what a great dinner it made later.Food, drinks, service, spot on! No rush, no nonsense and down to earth cooking from the heart.I especially like that both owners, chefs, (George and Alicia) find time to visit with their guest!You looking for your next go to spot and for any meal or just smooth tasting alcohol while watching a game, this is it!Do like I, enjoy brunch... order two plates, eat all day!"

"Quite simple... if you have loose dollars come here. They take cash only and they have tables for you to eat there if you wish. *order the super tostada (tostada with shrimp, imitation crab, Pico, and octopus) it's the thing to get. So much seafood in one tostada you need a spoon. I haven't tried the rest of their menu but I'm pretty sure it's good. A must if you're passing by!"

"The food was good but not the 25-minute wait that we had. For clarification, there were less than 10 people in the in the building. The service was slow but very friendly. The ambiance on that day was cool. There was a saxophone player on this day (Sunday), which was cool and chill.Though I did not give a high score, I do see potential and am willing to go back in the future in hopes of improvement."

6 Cocktails

"My excitement for the new spot in town was undeniable. It was the perfect opportunity to visit and celebrate, as we were out for a birthday dinner. We ordered drinks--El Mariachi and the Katana--and paired them with spicy fish tenders and skewer sensation. The cocktails were fantastic, perfectly balanced with flavors that masked the alcohol just right. After one drink, I was already feeling a pleasant buzz.Being a fan of Indian fusion, I was thrilled with the menu, even though it's limited. The spicy fish tenders didn't quite have enough heat for my liking, but I'll be sure to ask for extra spice next time. We went with both the paneer and chicken skewers, which were fresh out of the tandoor and absolutely hit the spot.The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, checking on us several times throughout the evening. The place had a decent crowd for a Thursday night, and we had a wonderful conversation with the owner, learning more about the place. I'm definitely coming back, especially to try their lunch menu. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!"

Islander’s

"This place is lit! I was very excited to try this new spot out and it did not disappoint! We arrived about 6:30 and got seated right away even though there was 2 large parties already in full swing. The inside is pretty spacious but there aren't a lot of tables I think to leave room for dancing. However, the bar is long with lots of seating. For starters we ordered the spam musubi and salt and pepper wings. Spam musubi was good but the wings were on point! Served hot and crispy with sliced jalapeños on top-delicious. For dinner my man ordered the short rib plate and my son and I split the sesame chicken. Each entree came with rice and macaroni salad. Take note-it's Hawaiian style macaroni salad so it has tuna in it and that is not stated on the menu. I'm glad I asked when our meals arrived because my bf hates seafood of any kind and it would have been all bad had he tried it, lol. Short ribs were grilled and very flavorful but the sesame chicken was slightly over cooked and and a little tough. Had it not been for that, it would have been good. As for drinks, my bf stuck to Lagunitas but I tried a pina colada and it was DELICIOUS! Last but not least, our server and the bartenders were all super friendly and totally on top of it. The DJ and music was fire and the place was packed by the time we left. Long story short...we had a blast."
