## Common questions
**Is Manolo Mañanita good for groups?**

Yes. Multiple reviews mention groups of 4–6 dining comfortably, with staff attentive to group dynamics. The terrace accommodates larger parties, and the kitchen's shareable-plate format suits collaborative dining.

**Do I need a reservation?**

Recommended, especially weekends. One reviewer found the restaurant full without a reservation but was accommodated; another called ahead and secured a table same-day. Walk-ins possible but not guaranteed.

**What should I order?**

Ask staff for recommendations—they know the menu intimately. Standouts include zamburiñas, croca de vaca, rabo de toro, croquetas de cecina, and sardina ahumada. Let Anselmo guide your wine choice.

**Is there outdoor seating?**

Yes. A generous terrace is available, described as 'amplia y bonita' (spacious and beautiful), with good views of central Cangas. Indoor seating is more intimate.

**Is the restaurant accessible?**

Yes. One review specifically notes 'Accesible PMR' (wheelchair accessible), and the layout accommodates mobility needs.
