Our Story
Mediterranean Passion. Center Street Style.
The Manhattan was born from a simple belief: that great food, genuine hospitality, and a vibrant atmosphere can transform an ordinary evening into something extraordinary. Nestled at 56 Center Street in the heart of Southington, CT, we have been welcoming guests since 2019.
Our Mediterranean-inspired kitchen draws on the bold, soulful flavors of Spain, Italy, and North Africa -- every sauce, every pasta, every dessert is made from scratch using the finest ingredients. There are no shortcuts at our table.
Beyond the plate, The Manhattan is a place where craft cocktails flow, live jazz fills the room on weekends, and every visit feels like coming home to something special.
Meet Chef Fabian
With decades of experience in some of the finest kitchens in the Northeast, Chef Fabian brings a relentless commitment to scratch-made excellence. Every sauce, every pasta, every dessert is crafted from the ground up.
His Mediterranean-inspired menu draws on the bold flavors of Spain, Italy, and North Africa, reinterpreted with seasonal New England ingredients and an artist's touch.
"There are no shortcuts to great food. Every dish tells a story, and ours begins from scratch."
