Better than the hype, one of the Cape's top dining experiences!!

Finally made it to Manna, with a dinner exceeding my expectations! Soo nice when a place lives up to the hype, I was almost intimidated by the rave reviews heard, only to find it every bit as good as rumoured! Gourmet at its best, you...More

Delicious meat (Filet), wine and desert - great dinner

The Manna epicure was recommended to us for our last evening in Cape Town. We were lucky to get a table in the stylish restaurant. We ordered mussels as starter and meat as main dish - and especially the meat was delicious. The Restaurant Manager...More

Dinner with an old friend

We had a delicious dinner of salad and pasta, with a good bottle of wine. Sitting on the patio on a balmy weekday evening was extremely pleasant. The restaurant was peaceful and quiet. The waiters were knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. Would go back in.a minute.
