Mancys Italian Information

The Mancy name has been synonymous with the promise of quality, honest value, and family since 1921. Restaurant founder Gus Mancy was born and raised on the Isle of Crete, and moved to Toledo in 1916, bringing with him the tradition of cooking with only the freshest and best ingredients. MANCYS RESTAURANTS ARE SO MUCH MORE THAN GOOD FOOD. THEY ARE A TOLEDO LEGACY. For the descendants of Gus Mancy, food was a way of life. Legend has it that when he and his business partner went to lock up on Christmas Eve 1946, there were no keys to be found. One of them had always been there24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for the first 25 years of operation. Despite their heritage, restaurant work was never an expectation for the Mancy grandchildren. All were expected to go out and hone their skills elsewhere before even considering the family business. Each pursued their own passion and the result is a delicious spectrum of options across the Toledo community. THAT LEGACY LIVES ON TODAY THROUGH THE HARD WORK AND DEDICATION OF HIS GRANDCHILDREN. Today, the Steakhouse tradition continues under the guidance of cousins, Gus and Mike. George honors their grandmothers heritage at Mancys Italian Grill. John combines the best of land and sea at Mancys Bluewater Grille. The family brings authentic pit barbeque into the mix at Shortys All-American Roadhouse.
