First time dinning here. Came on a slow Tuesday night. Took them 20 min to just greet us and it was the hostess who got us water. Finally ordered drinks took them over 20 min for drinks. Then someone else came over and took our food order after waiting 30 min. Got the bread which was super salty and over priced for 3 pieces. Food was warm to cold. Mussels were over cooked. No one checked on us after we got our food. Then we waited 45 min until my sister had to find the hostess to get us a box for our food and check. I’m only giving a 3 star bec the hostess was the friendliest person we dealt with. For what we paid for drinks, I might as well fly to a big city and get a fancy drink. Not worth the price. Parking is the worst especially since the prices are so high and having to pay $5 in the over flow lot.

Came today to have a business meeting lunch with potential client. What an amazing time. We sat out on the beautiful patio. Enjoyed wine, salads and some wonderful sunshine. Was surprised by the owner just happened to be there and came to say hello. I have to say she and the staff did an amazing job with this place. We will be back for more amazing dishes.Thank you for sharing this place with us.Parking: They have a lot for parking, but centerville just put some lots in right down the street which is just a small walk to the restaurant.

What a shame, we were so excited. Great environment, love the bar. Took 18 minutes to get 1st traditional Manhattan, 12 minutes for glass of wine. Bar was at 60%. Were approached 3X for food we didn't order. Were approached 3X by hostess about seat, but still hadn't received drinks. Would love to try again but feel they are completely missing the mark. Went across the street to Meriden and had a blast.

Took my hubby for his birthday, so glad we finally got to give Manna a try! He had the duck and I had the chicken, both were EXCELLENT!! Our drinks were okay (not as good as Salar) but we're looking forward to going back and trying other cocktails - there are so many delicious sounding drinks to choose from.

We absolutely loved our meal, we enjoyed every bit of it. The remodel on the building is just wild, and the atmosphere is like nowhere else in the region. We can’t say enough.We can’t wait to eat here again and bring some friends!

I am sophisticated enough to not need a giant portion size to appreciate a dish. However, the bone marrow here is an example of capitalistic excess that is a borderline con. For $27, we were able to scrape less than a teaspoon of this stuff out. All I could taste was bread.Atmosphere, service, and the bouef bourguignon were top notch. I will return for these. When the bone marrow and other obvious customer traps are removed from the menu, I will consider revising to 5 stars.

The food was ok and seemed to have good flavor but it was served cold so it was difficult to tell. For the price of the food I would have expected it to be much better. At the very least, to be served warm. Not sure if it is because of the different levels but very disappointing. Cocktails were good. Service was ok but our server was MIA far too often. Also, decor was lovely but the lights could have been dimmed down a bit. Will give it another chance but expect a lot more for the price of the food and the fact that it Is Salar's owner.

Manna hosted me and my wife for the first time for our wedding anniversary and I was extremely impressed. The wings of Victoria were absolutely cooked to perfection. I would recommend them to anyone as a starter.My wife ordered the duck. It's been a while since I had duck however it was cooked perfectly. The carrots and spinach were full of flavor. I ordered a filet mignon that needed absolutely no sauce served with mash potatoes and with a gravy and peppers that were perfect. The ambiance was perfect for a date night or a night out for two I will be returning as soon as I can. 10/10 recommended. Also Janis , our host was very kind and did an excellent job!!!

This place is a hidden gem! It is so elegant and stunning inside. This restaurant has more space inside than what appears to have from the outside. The service was excellent! Our waiter, Dewayne, was well versed with each dish and drink.The food was delicious!I have found a new favorite restaurant!
Service was terrible! Had to get up from the table to ask waiter to bring more water since he never came back to check on us. Waited 15 minutes for a sauce my husband wanted and it never arrived. Will not go back.

Splendid place. My waiter John exceeded my expectations, with a lot of knowledge and passion for his job. I think the drink he made me is the best I've ever had in my entire life. The exquisite food. My compliments to the chef. Nothing like it in Dayton.
