After being closed for extensive renovations for some seven months , historic and much beloved Manuel's Tavern opened to the public again on August 6. But with a brand new kitchen, and new staff to train, the menu was limited, and regular lunch and weekend brunch hours were cut.
Over the weekend, though, the full Manuel's menu suddenly returned, including the Dogzilla, the J.J. Special and the McCloskey Burger.
And during a call this morning, owner Brian Maloof said lunch service would be back within two weeks, maybe even next week, though probably not in time for the first presidential debate on Sept. 26.
