The story
The bistro Old West End stays loyal to
Manhattan's is the Adams Street institution that's served Old West End for years. The Carnegie sandwich is the move. The clam chowder is fire. There's live music most weeks — a "cozy American bistro with live tunes" is what Google calls it. It's the kind of room that fits 30 people for a wedding party with a few hours' notice and lets you store the cake in their cooler. Big portions, fantastic service, and the kind of first bite that tells you this was exactly what you wanted.
