Had my first Manzella's experience despite growing up in the area, and I have made a grave mistake waiting so long!! All the staff were very kind, and the food was AWESOME. Their house salad dressing is delicious, and the pasta dishes my wife and I ordered were perfectly prepared. Cannot wait to return.

You can really feel the italian atmosphere when you walk in and sit down. The food was outstanding and homemade to perfection. The service was a little slower than what we had planned but it is expected with the restaurant being homemade and old fashioned. We will definetely be coming back in the near future the fill our stomachs full.

Owner needs to learn to take a loss. I was given a bill, I paid it along with a generous tip over 30% of my bill. After the meal and after I long left the building they realized they charged me incorrectly undercharged me. Luckily, for them, one of the members in my party forgot an item and had to come back about an hour later. They said they would need the rest of the bill paid, even though they are the ones who screwed up, to be paid upon retrieval of the item. I paid what they wanted but I will not be back. Prior my partner and I were discussing when we wanted to return already. The owner lost repeat business from customers who tip their workers generously over what had to be less than 10 dollars in food costs to them. Had no one forgot an item they would have eaten the loss regardless. Owner needs to learn to take a loss. I was given a bill, I paid it along with a generous tip over 30% of my bill.

IN AN EDIT TO THE OWNERS RESPONSE: I did not look at the bill nor did I ask how much each persons meal was when they ordered, that would be tacky and rude. I had my card in hand and ready to pay so I simply just handed the bill back with my card. Why in any world would the customer be responsible for the amount they’re billed? That is the establishments job, if the server is not doing it correctly how do you expect a customer too? I paid what YOU charged me and left a very generous tip in the process. To hold a little girls birthday card until payment because your business messed up is pathetic. Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1

Ordered lunch today for 9 people. Food was prepared correctly and ready to be picked up in the 35 min they promised. Antipasto salad is amazing! The combo was also fantastic. Great staple to the C-U area for many years. Service Take out Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Italian Beef Sandwich

Long time Italian place with great food and personable servers. The pizza is amongst the best in the area and their other entrees are all excellent. One of C-U's "hidden gems."

We went to Manzella's Italian Patio this evening to have dinner for Eric's(my husband) birthday. I forgot my purse on the chair beside me. I noticed the moment we pulled into our driveway. I called Manzella's, which had already closed, I prepared for the worst, which really was just that I'd have no purse until Friday. The owner answered the phone, after hours, and I told her what I'd done. She said, "My daughter found it and she's on her way to your house right now." WHAT? HOW AMAZING IS THAT!!!?? Their daughter's name is Angelina and she was the ABSOLUTE sweetest! She explained to me that there was no way she could let me worry about it until Friday. That is the most amazing customer service I've ever had! ❤️ Also, the food and service were sooooo good! We will absolutely be making this our new Champaign restaurant to eat at! #familyowned #familyownedrestaurant #manzellasitalianpatio #smallbusiness #bestservice Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Cheesy Garlic Bread

I'm from out of town. The drinks are served ice cold. The pizza crust was perfect. The waitress was informative with specials for night. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
Manzella's is a wonderful local traditional Italian family owned restaurant. The food is always good if you are looking for that homemade taste. The pastas are delicious, the pizzas are thin with just the right mix of crispness to the crust. The atmosphere is old school Italian. There is nothing better than to sit in a booth up front with the glow of the neon signs in the window and to watch the traffic going by as you enjoy a warm comforting meal.
