" Had dinner here last night and it was outstanding! The pork belly was perfectly cooked, and the flavors were vibrant. The service was a bit slow as they were busy, but I didn’t mind waiting for such delicious food. I will definitely return, as the overall experience worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cafe The Mani is a gem! The bingsoo was the perfect way to cool off after my meal; refreshing and delightful! The kimbap was good, too! I love that they have traditional treats like this available. The atmosphere was lively and filled with encouraging vibes. It’s nice to see a place where culture is appreciated. I’ll definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a wonderful dinner at Cafe The Mani! The sweet and sour pork was spectacular - crispy and slightly chewy just the way I like it. Although it was a 30-minute wait, it was worth it for the quality. The staff was apologetic for the wait time, which made us feel valued. The only downside was the slightly cramped seating, but that didn’t take away from the overall experience. Looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic dining experience! The spicy tuna kimbap was refreshing, and the fried tofu stole the show—it was flavorful beyond words! The only drawback was the wait time, which was a bit lengthy. Still, the wait was worth it. The staff were friendly and apologized for the delay. Plan on returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who has lived in Korea for a few years, I'm pretty picky about Korean food. I'm happy to report that Cafe The Mani lives up to its promise of authentic dishes! I had the kimchi jjigae and it was amazing—just like I remember it. The service was prompt and friendly, and I loved the vibe of the place. My only wish is that they had more vegetarian options, but otherwise, a fantastic experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! I was completely taken aback by how fantastic the food was! The tteokbokki was sweet and spicy—the perfect combination. I also loved the fried chicken which was crispy and tender. The portions were generous, more than enough for sharing. The staff were very attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for authentically great Korean cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was so excited to try this restaurant but have to admit, it didn't completely meet my expectations. The food was decent, but it didn't feel as authentic as I hoped. The service was friendly, though slightly slower than ideal. I want to give it another shot because of the great reviews, but I felt a bit let down this time. " (*Curated Review*)
