A Mano Kitchen & Bar, Syracuse NY

Had a fantastic dinner on Saturday with my wife and some friends. Ordered drinks, appetizers, entrees, and desserts. Great food, great service, and a nice atmosphere.

The new Abbiocco Restaurant should be added to your list of restaurants to try. You will be glad you did. The food is

Great atmosphere and DELICIOUS food! Awesome customer service. The best place to grab a bite with friends and family.

We went last night as a party of 6 and had an excellent experience! The food was AMAZING! They even had lots of options for my gluten free wife. Service was prompt and professional and very friendly. I wholeheartedly recommend that for your next amazing food experience, you need to go to Abbiocco by A Mano! I will certainly be visiting regularly moving forward.

Five stars all the way. I almost went four on atmosphere because waiters in t-shirts however the room, the high ceilings, lighting, and big windows made it five.

First time here the wife and I shared an calamari, a side polenta with chantelle mushrooms and a prosciutto/argula pizza before Symphoria. All were very good. Our waiter was attentive, timing was spot on. We really enjoyed our meal here.

First time here. Went for a private event. The food is good had the lettuce salad with raisins which was fresh and tasty, pepperoni pizza and garlic pizza as appetizers which were tasty and made in wood oven which gives a pleasant aftertaste and very close to pizza in Italy. The fried chicken was average. The dried calamari and octopus were so tasty with a flavorful sweet sauce. The pasta dish with rosé sauce was so good and not heavy. Relatively good service considering we were a big group. I am not usually an Italian food fan in the US hut this place is good. The interior design is pleasant and spacious.

Last night 5of us went to this fantastic place! Magnificent bartender he was a joy to be served by for starters, great cocktails and very informative with the menu suggestions, we had apps at the bar and omg awesome pizza with asparagus, guenciale, egg garlic and cheeses then zucchini with barratta and off to dinner with delicious steaks, pasta, calamari wine JUST UNBELIEVABLE! SO SAD WE ARE SLOSING THIS EXPERIENCE! SEE YOU AGAIN THIS WEEK

Great food, great company. Anthony is a restaurateur icon! Noah is a Pizza Master. Alex and Loren are Masters of Creativity and delicious-ness!
Happy food, Happy place!

Checked this place out Saturday night and overall great experience. The bread came out with a leak butter which was good, but better if the bread had been served warm. I had the calamari and aioli which was excellent. I ordered the Ribeye special which came with potatoes and ordered medium rare. It was huge! The steak was good as ordered and seasoned well, but lacked the little extra crust or seared effect, but I'd order it again no question. The crispy potatoes on the side were excellent. I'm a big fan of old fashioned and had the Woodford reserve bourbon which was good. Only discount is there use ice cubes rather than a single square or ball of ice, just my preference.

THE CHICKEN SAUSAGE CONTAINS PORK!
If you don't eat pork do not order the chicken sausage as it contains chicken and pork. They do not advertise this and I was informed about this on my last visit here. Very annoying. Poor menu design that's so easy to fix. Hopefully they will improve it.

Exception service from the bartender and staff. Made me and my wife feel like family. This was truly a unique experience and not just a meal. Fast, professional and welcoming. So glad that we discovered this new gem. Definitely going to the top of our list!

A Mano Kitchen and Bar was a conflicting experience of, that's incredible to, that's made really well but I've had better. I'll make this clear there was nothing bad, not remotely, maybe it was the hype or the prices on the traditional menu that was swaying our opinions. We went for dining week, which is amazing that they participate in because it gave us an opportunity to try so much we otherwise would be hesitant to because of total cost.

A Mano itself is really beautiful inside, a great spacious layout with unique designs. Music is playing loud enough to hear, quiet enough to easily converse with your table.

Our server was pleasant and attentive, and did his job well. I was impressed that after every course they cleaned everything up and gave us new silverware.

For drinks a wide variety of choices of cocktails, wines and beers. Everyone who had a drink enjoyed them.

The food, this where mixed positive reviews start coming in and I'll go course by course. The complimentary bread, very soft and fresh, the butter with it was different than a traditional butter, but not our favorite. I used the delicious bread to soak up the sauce from my appetizer. I had the Polpette and this was hands down the best restaurant meatballs I've ever had. Cooked to perfection and the flavor of the sauce left me wanting more. The Caesar salads were very fresh and well made. Someone order the special goat cheese appetizer and they adored it.

The main dishes. I had the Gnocchi stuffed with Ricotta and they were cooked perfectly, they nailed the texture. I was underwhelmed by the flavor profile of the sauce they were in. Making it a simply enjoyable main. My wife had the strip steak and again they cooked it to perfection, underwhelmed by any flavor. It needed more of a favor punch to put it over the top. The twice baked potatoes that came with it were very good.

Those that ordered the Cavatelli were in love with it. I got to try some and again cooked to perfection! This time with the sauce having flavor that makes you go wow with each bite! Someone also ordered the pepperoni pizza and they said it was good, it's pizza.

The desserts, the deconstructed cannoli with orange ricotta and the lava cake. Both were very nice. We weren't a fan of the orange flavor but you can't knock it for accuracy, it was well executed and a fun take on the traditional version. The lava cake was very good and they used peanut butter in it which was a preferred twist on the traditional.

Overall A Mano is easy to recommend, everything was good to great. I want to give it another try to have the opportunity to be fully blown away. I do encourage you to check the menu for pricing and to reserve a table as it's very popular and will easily fill up. Enjoy!

I had my fiancé’s birthday dinner here last night. It was amazing. The steak was out of this world! The service was incredible. The the restaurant has a great atmosphere. We definitely recommend this place an we will be returning again!

Excellent as always. Food is a little different than elsewhere and is definitely made by a well seasoned chef. Love the homemade pasta and their homemade breads and butters.

My wife and I went here for an early Valentines Day. All of our courses were great - my steak was slightly undercooked but they took it back without question and had it out a few minutes later. The experience was very positive overall - highly recommend. Dessert was a banana chocolate cheesecake that we would highly recommend too.
