Did Barkley head straight to Manny’s Steakhouse from MSP? Eater investigates
The biggest story in Minnesota media right now is the game seven comeback that brought the Timberwolves to the Western Conference finals — but a close second is the matter of where TNT analyst Charles Barkley should eat while he’s in town. Barkley has officially landed in the Cities ahead of May 22’s Game One of the Wolves v. Maverick series, and it remains to be seen if the many, many, many restaurant recommendations he’s received will reach his ears. Check back for updates.

Barkley wasted no time in getting to Manny’s, Minneapolis’s most iconic steakhouse. The restaurant shared a photo of his visit on both Facebook and Instagram, writing “Well friends, he brought his a** right in to see us!” Did Barkley head to Manny’s straight from the MSP tarmac? It sure seemed like he’d just gotten into town, says general manager Dave Wilson, who reports that Barkley was very congenial and chatty with the staff and other guests. His group ordered “big steaks and big sides.” It wasn’t Barkley’s first visit to Manny’s, Wilson says — he’d eaten there a few years ago, probably during the 2019 Final Four — and the staff was happy to see him back.
