My aunt and uncle came to visit from the United States and have never tried Filipino cuisine — therefore I decided to bring them to Manam so that they may try some of the best that the Philippines has to offer. We ate to our hearts, content, celebrated, and enjoyed each other’s company because of the amazing food. I really enjoyed the Kare Kare and Laing. But Oh my, that Calamansi tart was decadent and to die for. Filipino food is among the best the world has to offer, at Manam we really felt the comfort of the dishes we shared!
Love this eatery!! The soup is the best. Definitely go if you are new to Filipino cuisine. Great veggie options too.
Manam is a palce worth recommendong especially to Filipinos who have long lived abroad and missed the native menus that they used to enjoy.
I had a mixed experience at Manam Ayala Malls Manila Bay. The food was absolutely amazing—10/10. However, the staff were unaccommodating and rude. We asked for water several times, but it took a long time to be served. To make matters worse, some of the staff even tried to join in our pictures, which felt inappropriate. It's unfortunate that such great food was overshadowed by the poor service and behavior.
