The experience was quite disappointing, especially since it was my birthday. The Bolognese pasta was completely tasteless, & the meatball tasted like anything but meat. Unfortunately, the food did not meet expectations at all.

I had also asked for a small candle & a tiny pastry for my birthday, but the waitress didn't even seem to understand what I was asking for. I wasn't expecting anything elaborate; just a small birthday gesture.

Overall, the food & service were both disappointing, & unfortunately it wasn't the birthday experience I had hoped for.

We went for a paid dinner provided from our boss, & the staff knew how to take care of it. We were greeted by the best staff.

The food was immaculate, the pasta & pizza were the best thing Ive ever tasted in quite some time, it was pretty great.
It had been a while since Ive been there & Ill definitely order a pizza next time.

shout outs to matt for being a professional, & asking any questions what we had & for being a great host!

Will go again for our 8th anniversary dinner.

Fantastic dining experience. Staff was exceptional, courteous, & knowledgeable of the menu & offerings. We began with the calamari to start, which was light & crispy. For the main, I ordered the chicken parmigiana with side of pasta Alfredo. Both were cooked to be perfection & so delicious. The tiramisu for dessert was a perfect end to the meal. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, & cozy. Highly recommend checking this place out. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!

Let me share a little secret that most West Islanders know, but many others on the island haven't discovered: Resto Vieux Four Manago, an Italian restaurant on St. Charles in Kirkland, is our hidden gem. When my kids were younger, we used to bring them there for the kids' meal of pasta. For a while, it became our family's go-to spot. You know how kids are-picky eaters with ever-changing tastes-& eventually, they grew tired of pasta. But during that time, my wife & I stuck to one thing we loved: the'frutti di mare' pizza. As the name suggests, it's a seafood-inspired pizza, topped with shrimp, scallops, crab, & a rich seasoned tomato sauce to bring it all together.

Though the restaurant was a favorite, life & changing preferences led us away from it for several years. But Vieux Four Manago has always remained a family-driven place, with a welcoming ambiance, soft background music, & a bar area where you can catch a game if you're into sports. It's the kind of place that's perfect for celebrating life's milestones, from birthdays to anniversaries, or any event where you want to be surrounded by loved ones. The restaurant's heart has always been its family atmosphere, & the staff make you feel right at home, like part of their own family.

Now that our kids are much older, they still haven't developed the same love for pasta, but recently, my wife & I decided to take a nostalgic trip back to Vieux Four Manago & order our old favorite, the'frutti di mare' pizza. It felt like we were stepping back in time-the wood-fired brick oven was still there, tirelessly producing pizzas for both dine-in patrons & takeout orders. When our pizza finally arrived, it was just as we remembered it. The toppings were perfectly browned, exactly how I've always liked them, & the crust was golden, light, & deliciously crispy. We added a drizzle of chili oil with just the right amount of heat, giving each bite a subtle extra kick. As soon as I took that first bite, a flood of memories came rushing back. It tasted every bit as wonderful as it did in the past, reminding us of all the good times we'd shared at this spot.

Can you believe it? Resto Vieux Four Manago boasts an incredible selection with over 27 different pizzas & 16 pasta dishes! Whether you're craving a classic like Margherita or feeling adventurous & want to try something bold, there's a pizza to satisfy every taste. The variety is impressive, with something to suit everyone's preferences, all crafted with that signature, old-fashioned flavor that instantly makes you feel at home. From traditional favorites like pepperoni & mozzarella to more inventive combinations, this place has every pizza lover's dream covered. Plus, their menu offers a wide range of meals with chicken, beef, & seafood to satisfy all appetites beyond just pizza. With their focus on pizza & pasta, there's truly something for everyone, & the options fit various budgets, ensuring an excellent meal for every occasion. Whether you're dining in or taking out, they're sure to hit the mark!

If you're looking to dine out & enjoy a quiet evening, the atmosphere at Vieux Four Manago is refreshingly serene compared to many other restaurants. It's not too loud, allowing you to relax & let the background fade away. My wife & I had a wonderful evening there. With delicious food in my belly & mature love in the air, it was the perfect recipe for a satisfying end to the night. The digital candlelight setup created an intimate & romantic setting, with the soft glow of the virtual candles adding a warm touch to the experience. Light, soothing music played gently in the background, enhancing the mood without overwhelming the conversation.

If you haven't been, or if you're looking for a cozy, family-friendly restaurant, Resto Vieux Four Manago is that special, under-the-radar place that you'll fall in love with. It's our little secret, & one we're happy to keep going back to. @mtlrestorap

I hadn't been here for over 10 years.
The bread they give in the beginning is so moist.

I can say the pasta is still so yummy like I remember, although the portions are huge, definitely dont make the same mistake as us & get the small portion of the pastas because the small is pretty big.

We got the fettuccine & the carbonara & both of them were really good, the pear salad was refreshing, the soup was good aswell. Just to say that we were in a food coma after this. I will definitely come back & not wait 10 years this time

The pizza was tasty. The pasta needed some work. We were seated in a tight spot & I felt a draft through out my meal.
