Manna Bistro

One of the best fry Chiken and price, $11 you will not find this around Fairfax anymore.

So a while ago I would have said that I would give 4 stars to this restaurant. I and my spouse would eat here all the time especially when I was pregnant. We would order 2 vegetarian platters for 2 and the portions were good. We have since moved out the area and came back because we had appointments near by. We ordered two vegetarian platters for two for ourselves and our twins and paid for the equivalent of 4 meals but only received 2 meals and they were definitely not portions for 4 adults. They were the size of the individual portion of vegetarian platters when you order it. The service is never as good when the sister is in charge and the owner is not present. I often leave and don’t order when the owner isn’t there. She tried to convince is that the amounts in the containers were for 4 people. The only thing that was enough for four Pepe was the injera. We are not sure we will return. It’s sad because the food is amazing. Read less

Loved our Manna bistro experience. We are always on the lookout for Ethiopian restaurants in our area, and this one is a winner. The red lentils and chicken wat were standout items. Why is t hat the case, do you ask? They control the level of oil and their dishes and balance the spice level based on your request. The prices are extremely reasonable based on the quality and quantity provided. The six dish and 2-person combination platter is easily good enough for 2 people for lunch. The Ethiopian bean based coffee was also excellent, and service was with a smile. We will definitely visit again. It is interesting that they have added Latin American cuisine to their menu as well. I don't know the quality of it but they had quite a few clients enjoying it Read less

There were four of us on a road trip, 2 vegetarians & 2 meativores, so it can be hard finding a place with dinner options for everyone. We got the mixed Ethiopian vegetarian dish for two, plus a mixture of tacos and pupusas, and everyone was happy with their food. The tortillas were soft and delicious and obviously homemade, so that was nice. It was good to have Ethiopian options and Mexican options on the same menu. Would definitely go back when I’m driving through NoVa. Read less

Great place to taste Ethiopian delicious foods.

My new favorite Ethiopian spot!! Fresh food and kind people. Just what I'd expect from Habesha!!! I spent over $100 because we purchased items for home. We got tej, ingera, berber, etc.

Horrible experience!! I ordered the chicken tibs that comes with salad but only got the chicken. I ordered to add broiled eggs cause I know the beef has it so I wanted it on my meal but no egg. All I got was just chicken. What am I supposed to do with just chicken? And then when I call to let them know about my order, the lady is rude and hangs up on me. I tried calling back and she keeps on ignoring my calls. I call back for the 7th time and a guy picks up and also hangs up on me. Horrible experience with the food and customer service. I threw this whole food away! Do better and if you can’t get an item on the menu to reflect the order on DoorDash then remove the order until you can. The lady also said to come and pick up the order. If I ordered through DoorDash, what makes you think I have time to go and pick up a salad? Straight horrible!!!’ $30 down the trash and now I gotta order from somewhere else ‍♀️ Read less
