Manuco’s Restaurant

Love this place, clean, great service, and most of all the food is super fresh always!!!

The food is fantastic. They offer traditional Puerto Rican dishes as well as Colombian, Cuban and Mexican. We had a combination of everything including pork tacos, enchiladas, yucca fries and mofongo. Everything was complete perfection. Inside is nicely decorated with good music to set the mood. We will definitely be back.

What a fantastic find! My husband and I had a coupon for Manuco’s and we decided to give it a try for dinner tonight. He had the garlic shrimp trifongo, which was prepared just like we had in Puerto Rico. It was excellent! I had the roasted pork chop, which was thick, juicy, and actually fork tender. Delicious! The owners were very social and attentive. It is apparent they take a lot of pride in their restaurant. I can’t wait to return and try some of the other items on the menu!

Pork sandwich was tasty. Bread seems homemade, buttery and flavorful. Large portions. $ 12.95
Mofongo was the best I’ve had since visiting Puerto Rico. Excellent flavored shrimp, perfect rice and my husband even liked the bowl, even though he claims he isn’t a fan of plantains. $ 22.95
Atmosphere is ok. Nothing special, kind of set up like a diner, but service was excellent and food quality made definite impression to return for!
4 star review is taking all things into account. If I had to break it down, it would be like this: Food portion 5, quality 4.5, pricing 3, service 5, atmosphere 3.5

Best place in Levittown. Friendly staff, family owned business, plenty of parking, behind Wendy’s. Potato balls are divine. The empandas as good as it get with plenty of flavor.
This place is like going to Puerto Rico without the plane ticket $$$$, This is a hidden gem.
Check it out. Make sure you have an empty belly.

Here’s another place where a «point 5» rating would come in handy. The restaurant is more than a 3 but not a 4 !
Dan our server (and owner ?) made several recommendations for us and could not have been more informative and gracious.
We shared the Potato Ball appetizer, which was a crispy corn starched-​covered potato, stuffed with a small amount of flavorful ground beef that was amazing in it’s simplicity and fantastic taste.
One of our main courses was the Pernil, chunks of delicately seasoned shredded roast pork with Spanish rice and beans with crispy Plantains. (One side of the rice would have been more than enough for both of us!)
The other entrée was the Pollo Horneado, which was a roasted chicken leg and thigh with Sweet Plantains (Spanish rice) — also very good.
There was enough left over from both of the above for a light lunch the next day.
The bill before tip was around $ 35. With many more appetizing items on the menu to explore, we will definitely be back for a return visit. (BYO)

With so few Puerto Rican restaurants in Bucks and Mercer county, we came here hoping to find a gem in the rough. The restaurant itself is so easy to miss while driving on Bristol Oxford Valley Rd. We discovered this place solely due to a few glowing reviews on Unilocal.
We got an order of the Surullitos de Maiz (Fried Corn Meal sticks) for an appetizer. The corn meal sticks tasted a bit like fried cornbread but more dense in texture and flavorful with a nice crunchy crust. Daniel (the owner) also brought some house tortilla chips which were fresh and delectable. So far so good.
Coming to the main course, we were looking to get an order of the Stuffed Mofongo but they were out of green plantains (it’s like saying a sports bar is out of wings) so we settled for the Bacalao Guisado (Codfish Stew) and Spicy Steak for our main course combos. Both selections came with a choice of rice and Sweet Plantains or Tostones for the night. Since Green Plantains are twice fried to make Tostones, we are guessing they had some prepped.
The Spicy Steak was ok flavor wise albeit a bit salty but clearly overdone and chewy. The bigger disappointment was the cod fish stew which was extremely salty (2x salt). The yellow rice and tostones were average and to be honest forgettable.
Going by dining experience alone, it’s a low two stars but we round it up to three factoring in service. The owner went above and beyond to ensure that we were comfortable. We are really hoping that they had an off day in the kitchen and what we had for our main course is not the normal. If not, the situation is akin to a band with a horrible lead singer. Got to fix food issues.

I was very excited to find this place in the land of pizza, hoagies and Chinese food. I’m from NYC and I’m spoiled by the variety of food places to eat. So when I came across this place I had to try it. The restaurant is a nice cozy place hidden behind the Wendy’s on Bristol-​Oxford Valley Rd. If you’re driving too fast you’ll miss it. The décor is simple. Paintings hang on the walls as well as flags from different countries. I placed a take out order of roasted chicken with yellow rice and peas, chicken tacos, chicken empanadas, codfish cakes and sweet plaintains. The food took about 20 minutes to be prepared. The aroma from the bag was so enticing it took everything to keep from pulling the care over to taste something in the bag. Lol The chicken and rice were delicious. The chicken was falling off the bone but not dry. It was also seasoned nicely. The yellow rice sand peas was equally as delicious. It wasn’t sticky or bland. I liked the sweet plaintains. They weren’t dry like they can be when you get them from the West Indian places. The codfish cakes were a tad bit greasy but the had nice flavor to them. Didn’t taste much cod though. My daughter said her chicken tacos were good. The chicken empanadas could do with more flavor. Chicken was a little dull and bland. Fix that problem and you’ll have a hit.
All in all I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for s departure from the norm. They’ve only been open for a year and five days to be exact and hopefully they’ll be around for a while. I will definitely go back to sample some other things on the menu.
As I’m writing this I just remembered I forgot to order the tres leches cake Oh well the excuse for me to hurry back
If your live in the area stop by and have some food. Don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

Delicious authentic Puerto Rican food and very friendly staff. My new favorite place!!!

I had the garlic shrimp combo, the food was prepared perfectly, it came with a very generous serving of rice and beans, and the plantains were delicious. It is a family run restaurant and the owners are great people. I will definitely be back.

This place was great. Wife and I Had the pernil, shrimp, mofongo. All well done. Reminds me of my days growing up in the Bronx. A bit of Spanish music playing over the speakers, and some Spanish tv on in the background. Food was just excellent. Service very friendly. So happy I stopped in. Wish it was in my area; I’d be here all the time.

This nice restaurant just made my Saturday. My family is from Corozal, Puerto Rico and I grew up there. Eating the Mofongo and the Guisado took me back to childhood. Can’t wait to come back for the Bacalao con Viandas! Thank you to Daniel and his wife! :)

This hidden spanish treasure was one of thee best places I have ever eaten! Plantains, plantains, and MORE plantains! How amazing and delicious! The piononos were flavorful, sweet and savory. Not greasy at all! Their pernil was perfectly seasoned, juicy, and super tender! The only thing better than the food was the affordable prices! Will be back again and again. A plus!

We have driven by this place for months and finally figured what the hey. Apps and entrees were amazing. Food had great flavor and everything was fresh and made to order. We will definitely be back and this time will bring some wine BYOB. You should really give this gem hidden in a strip mall a try. You’ll be back.

Can not say anything negative about this place.
Happy to find this local gem!
We started we a beef empanadas and Relleno de papa. Both were very good and full of flavor. The empanada was as big as the basket it was served in.
Our main course was chicken enchilada and Manuco’s steak.
WOW!!!
Best authentic food in the area.
Highly recommend and will be back for sure.

Found Manuco’s thanks to a local newspaper, I was happy to have a buy one get one free entrée coupon. So off we went to buy some delicious puerto rican food, although they also serve a few Mexican dishes as well.
As an appetizer, I couldn’t resist ordering a meat empanadilla. Which came out huge! Full of delciously seasoned meat and nice and crispy crust. At first bite, I was in love. My hubby was obsessed with these freshly fried chips they placed on our table with cheese and hot sauce.
We also ordered roast pork (pernil) and white rice, beans and tostones all for $ 12 a combo. The roast pork was a bit on the dry side for me. The beans were delicious and tons of white rice to accopany them.
Our waiter could’ve used some pep, it looked like he had a rough day, but was overall was helpful. I hate that the place is located at a strip mall and next to a laundry mat. I’m excited to come back and try other plates on their menu, especially since there are no other Puerto Rican restaurants nearby.

I recently found out about this place and I’m really glad I did. I use to go to Jersey to get my Spanish food but now it super close to home! The food tastes great! Super yummy. People there are nice too :). Everyone should go there!

This is our first time eating in & it was nice. The place had about 4 – 5 tables busy.
We ordered enchiladas & Pernil combo. The enchiladas were spicy & delicious. The Pernil was moist with plenty of flavor. And it was NOT over salty.
Everything was fresh & service was very personable. We will be back.
Can’t wait to see this family owned restaurant grow to 5 stars. Good luck Manuco’s!
(Maybe they can add fresh red salsa to their homemade chips.)

Yummmm!!! The pork. OMG the pork!!! I can’t wait to go back. Great food. Super friendly people. I also had the garlic shrimp. It should be called garlic lovers shrimp. Very good but you must love garlic. I can’t wait to go back and try more. Not many restaurants seem to last in that spot. I hope this one does. It’s awesome. Next time I’m going with rum in hand and trying their piña colada. Unless you’ve been to Puerto Rico you’ve never truly had a piña colada and dude swears they’ve got the real deal. I can’t wait!

WOW ! Food was absolutely amazing ! If you are Latino in this area, it is like having a home cooked meal ! Pricing is amazing for the amount of food they give you ! They recently just opened, but I can definitely see this place being very popular. I will DEFINITELY be returning !
