Manny's Restaurant   

There must be something in the salsa, but ask any Kansas Citian, and they'll tell you Manny's is addictive. The owner, Manny Lopez, uses the time-honored recipes and experiences of his own family to create an outstanding offering of traditional Mexican cuisine. South-of-the-border specialties, including chile rellenos and el gordito, bring in crowds from all over the barrio to experience Mexican's best bet in KC. From police officers to plumbers to corporate executives, the masses at this establishment all have one thing in common -- they are obsessed with the food and don't mind waiting among the throngs of people to sample the taste they've learned to crave. But waiting in those long lines is certainly easier with one of Manny's potent and popular Margarita's.
