  We almost walked out because no one came to seat us after waiting about 10 minutes in the front area, but I am so glad we stayed. I really enjoyed their food! It tasted very similar to the food my family makes. The cheesy garlic bread tasted just like my dad's! The Italian dressing was just like my grandmother's. The ambience was also enjoyable. 👌🏼

  Cool place, old school Italian feel. Service was very slow, but maybe my waitress was new. I felt a tad ignored. Food was good, big portions.

  For my money Manzellas has made some of the best authentic pizza in Central Illinois for the past twenty plus years. The Bianca is especially good. The service is very good: attentive, but not constantly interrupting your meal. The woman who seems to always work behind the bar is knowledgeable about their wines. If you’re looking for the decor found in upscale, franchise Italian restaurants, you may be disappointed. But if you love a venue with the feel of an old school neighborhood Italian restaurant Manzella’s is for you.

  Great old school Italian restaurant. Nice atmosphere, great homemade dressing. The dishes are full of flavor and are portioned nicely.

  There are definitely better Italian places in town. That said, if you’re not looking to spend almost $100 on your meal, this place is perfect. It’s a cozy little spot for a rainy day. If you’re just looking for some comfort food and a decent wine recommendation everyone in here is super nice and you don’t need to feel like you have to put on a three piece suit to visit.
