Philly.comAugust 3, 2014Johnny Manana's is a festive spot, brightly decorated with Mexican folk art and full of fun-loving young adults. Located in up-and-coming East Falls, it's hip enough - with weekly live bands. Read more
Emily GeorgeJanuary 27, 2015I got the chicken fajita and it was great! The service was slow though but it was on a Saturday night and it was packed.
Olivia GillisonJune 19, 2014Great guacamole, salsa and chips for starters and Johnny's Favorite is definitely a must.
Carolina MartinezAugust 20, 2014Nice place, good margaritas. Note: we never use cheddar cheese in Mexico, never!
Ayshia VJuly 21, 2011One of my favorite Mexican spots, how I miss the food and the drinks were awesome!!!! I would recommend it!
visitPAAugust 7, 2010The giant chili pepper out front is your unofficial gateway and welcome to NW Philly, PA. After a giant burrito, walk it off on the Schuylkill River path nearby.
My waitress was perfect, I had no Issues. 3 thumbs up & a snap... ;h
Ice PickJune 12, 2010Get a margarita pitcher and some spicy jalapeño poppers. Don't get the wings! Don't get the nachos either (since you get the same free chips and salsa).
Andrew SeiferOctober 17, 2010The margaritas are awesome, all because they have the best lemon slices around. food is good, wait staff pretty cute
Matt BarryMarch 12, 2011New mgmt severely reduced menu. No non-chicken or steak options! No more delicious fish tacos.
Kit RojasAugust 15, 2015Overpriced for what you get all around. Basic Tex-Mex cuisine, each entree comes with the stingiest amount of sauce. Waitstaff is friendly but forgetful.
Dennis VelezOctober 4, 2014The nachos were good. The decor and ambience is nice. The margaritas were overly sweet. The waitress was terrible. Slow and easily confused. I would not come back.
LarryFebruary 20, 2012kim's jalepeno/pineapple infused tequila...damn...got rid of my sinus infection and afternoon boredom!
Alicia ReneéMay 4, 2013Had enchiladas smothered on mozzarella cheese. Uhm, I thought this was a Mexican restaurant. #confused
Theressa HeimbachAugust 14, 2012The food is average and the service is HORRIBLE!! What restaurant delivers the entree before your beverage and appetiser? I can tell you.... Johnny mananas!!
Plus: $5 Margaritas are back Negative: Waitress is slow & took 4ever 2 take our order, two tables after us have already gotten their food. #confused smh Already gone thru 2 buckets of nachos waiting
Ben BlumMarch 15, 2012Horriable service an food was cold an brought out 30 mins apart from the rest of my party. Very disapointed.
Reagan SmokerMarch 12, 2011Don't come here. They charged for the second chips and salsa but didn't tell us just added it to the bill.
Nicholas OnufrakMarch 6, 2011Probably the worst place I've ever been. Burnt food, horrible service, and drunk owner.

"A taco with a side of rice & beans for under $5! It doesn't get better than that. The food is delicious and well seasoned. Highly recommended for a quick lunch."
