“ Love Manos, great food and great ambianceWould highly recommend it for anyone looking for authentic flavors. Their Bolognese tasted just like the flavors from many moons ago when we lived in CT..Μπράβο σας ???????? ???????????????? We almost didn’t get a chance to dine in due to the large crowds as we left the Stormers game, the evening was worth the wait. My kids literally cleaned out their plates.. Amazing service from Victoria. ”

“ Nice place. Right at the main road green point, short menu but fine. Service good just probably small but overall nice. ”
“ Tasted chicken liver peri peri for the first time, and I loved it. I also ordered the grilled calamari, nothing to fault. My partner had issues with the grilled chicken since he didn't like to eat with his hands, but the taste was good. Great service, nice location. Overall, it was a great lunch. ”
“ I had the prawn curry as it came with high reviews. It was perfect but just too expensive at 285 plus 15% vat. It also gets noisy. ”
“ A stunning venue, absolutely delicious food, their Fillet Prego Rolls are renowned. I had a fresh Kingklip, which was devine. My wife enjoyed their Penne Salmone and she was in 7th heaven. Their service is excellent and the food is really delicious and tasty. I will definitely be back for more. ”
“ We arrived early evening which was a good thing to do as the restaurant does not accept reservations. Quick and attentive service. I wasn't really hungry and so asked the waitress to suggest a dish that was not too filling and I ended up with the Prawn Curry that was excellent with a sauce that was not too spicy. My friend had a Ceasur Salad that looked enough for two. A nice experience sat outside watching the world go by ”
