Mana Mana - De Pijp

10/10! Food is super unique and very good! Vegan options as well as meat and fish options. Wine was great and the staff is the cherry on top. Not just friendly but really kind and helpful. Definitely try the psychedelic califlower!!

This is a seriously cute and delicious restaurant. Sharing is caring definitely ;-) We were 6 members of friends. We had almost all the foods on the menu and we shared them along. All of which was definitely enough food and had great variety. The restaurant is small but so lovely cute inside. It really does feel like you are in someone's cozy apartment-turned-restaurant and someone is cooking in their home kitchen.. One of dishes we ordered was so so late. My friend could get it after 1hour30min. I don’t know why the servers kept telling us it will be soon on the table. I think it would’ve been better, if they told us that we should cancel. At the end of the service, they proposed us shots of Lemon cello. It was also nice but It would be still better if they told us some more details why the food is so late and better to cancel it. Except that, everything was just so good.

Food 10/10 Drinks 10/10 Vibe 10/10 Food was delicious we got the three dips platter. Each dip was fresh and yummy. The pita was good too. We also ordered the cauliflower but they never brought it out to us. So not sure how that tasted. We also ordered the sea bass. It was absolutely amazing. The crispy edges were to die for. The espresso martini was outstanding. And I’ve had a plethora of EM’s in my day.

Interesting middle eastern food. Amazing presentation of food. Love both the vegetarian dish and the meat ones. Two downsides: the portion is small (we are five and we ordered six starters and five main dishes) and the seat is not the most comfortable. Almost couldn’t feel my leg in the end. But worth a try.

Every dish we ordered was delicious! The gorgeous presentation is a nice touch too - makes for great photos and a more pleasant experience overall. I highly recommend the smoked aubergine and the laabane. You might have to order more pita bread because the laabane is super rich. The staff were friendly and thoughtful. We were seated at the second floor and they would make it a point to drop by every now and then to check if there was anything we needed.

Delicious food, absolutely amazing. Very tasty, the smoky aubergine and the baba ganoush were super flavorsome, as were the chicken thighs and the kebabs. But it is a very very small and crowded place, not the most comfortable to sit and enjoy a conversation with friends.

We walked past the door and decided to give it a go — and what a discovery! This place is a gem. We tried their signature cauliflower dish, the chicken thighs, and the mince over labneh, and I absolutely enjoyed every bite. If I had to choose, I’d say you definitely need to try the cauliflower; I’m sure it’ll surprise you! The waitress also recommended trying the Mana lemonade, and I’m glad I did because it was very tasty and refreshing, complementing all the flavors on the table. The staff was also super friendly, and the place was packed, so make sure to book a table before popping by!

Delicious food. It was hard to narrow down our choices. It was beautifully plated too. We had hummus, labneh, the cauliflower and also not pictured the sweet potato and spinach salad. The salad was too sweet with dates and reduced pomegranate balsamic dressing. It was the only thing I didn’t like. The pita was fresh and warm and they gave us veg sticks as well. Delicious!! And the staff was so helpful with my nut allergy.
