   Small, charming with EXCELLENT SERVICE and FOOD!!! Started at the bar for cocktails. When we arrived, the restaurant was about half full, however a few hours later it was quite full. Those who remember Mosaico, will find the setup is fairly similar. Appetizers were: Grilled Octopus and the Beef Carpaccio; Entrees: Pasta with Truffles and the Saffron Risotto with Ossobuco. Even though we were full, we had the Pistachio Gelato. Big enough to share!! Drank a very nice Bolgheri Superiore - Sor Ugo. The kitchen can be a little slow, but the food is great!! Sit back and enjoy your dining experience. The staff is attentive, our server Enzo was great.

   We had the tasting menu with the wine pairing and it was fabulous. Tradition entangled with innovation and creativity. Presentation and quality are above average. At least four employees interacting with us........superb service.

   Had the tasting menu and loved it. They explain each plate to you and each bite was an explosion. The Carpaccio di Manzo and the Pistachio Gelato were the best

   Our first visit to ManoLibera was fantastic. Great service and an original and very fresh menu. My wife and I could not decide on appetizers so we had 3 - and each one was excellent. Main course was a truffle pasta andIa three tomato pasta - both superb. We have been looking for a great neighborhood restaurant and now we have one. Good luck Chef!

    I was planning on having Chef’s Marco’s Uruguayan ribeye, which I had previously and thoroughly enjoyed. Thanks to Carlo’s recommendation, veal chop was a special and it was exquisitely prepared with a perfect proportion of truffle and herbs. I was tempted to gnaw on the bone with my bare hands but didn't want to be an "only in Dade" parody. My dining partner had the Candele entre, a dry pasta from Gragnano Italy (a town near Naples Italy). Gragnano is famous for dried pasta, a 1000 year tradition. Gragnano pasta is recognized by the EU to be PGI (protected Geographical Indication) if it meets specific criteria: the pasta dough must be extruded through a bronze die, giving it a rough texture; must use high-protein Durum wheat; the water must be from Gragnano which is light in calcium and other minerals, and it must be dried at low-temperature. Carlo explained that not only is the pasta authentically Gragnano but also the tomato sauce (from 3 tomatoes) is also imported from Naples. Chef Marco’s preparation was delectable. Candele is supposed to be al dente; it was filling and a great value, considering the quality of ingredients and skill in preparation. Mano’s staff is warm and friendly. The hostess greeted us kindly and the staff is efficient and efficient.
