    So glad I stumbled upon Manta after a day at the beach! They have indoor and outdoor seating and the day I visited, the doors to outside were pulled backed so sitting at the bar felt like being outside and I loved the feels. Carlos was our bartender and he was on it! Very friendly and helpful in explaining certain items on the menu. I absolutely loved that each food and cocktail had a picture so you can see what it actually looks like and what we did order looked just like the pictures. I literally wanted to try one of everything. I know they say they are traditional Peruvian food but the dishes seem to have Japanese infusion which I love! I'm a sucker for anything octopus and their menu had several options to choose from. The octopus was cooked and seasoned well. I loved the oil based sauce on the ceviche - they did offer to make it in the traditional lime sauce but we wanted the oil and I'm glad I tried it! And lastly we had the pork belly which was a unique dish and the pork was very tender and delicious. I can't wait to go back and try more!

    Pulpo Al olivo

    Delicious & beautiful plates and drinks in a beautifully decorated restaurant. We started off with the pulpo al olivo which was phenomenal! It was my first time trying the dish and I'm in love. We then moved to the tuna causitas tostadas where they torch them in front of you then pour the ponzu sauce over them. Those were super tasty & great for sharing! We finished off with the chaufa Ponca which was amazing! I ordered the carajillo drink and I think I found my new favorite cocktail! Like an espresso martini but sweet and on the rocks. For dessert we had these little cream ice cubes with cinnamon, don't remember the name but they were really good and refreshing! Definitely recommend this place for its amazing menu (and menu style with everything pictured) and beautiful interior.

    pisco sour
    Amaia S.

    Went to Manta for the first time last weekend and it was great! I 100% recommend the pisco sour. It was tarte, sweet, and smooth. The Ceviche tacos were an absolute banger. so fresh, i have not had anything like those tacos! Lomo Saltado was delicious but not worth the price tag... Have had bigger portions at other places. All in all I would definitely come back. Not to mention our server was extremely knowledgeable and the service was fast and attentive.

    We found Manta by accident, just driving south on Federal Highway. Came in around 8:30pm on a Sat and sat at the bar. Service was a bit slow and the restaurant wasn't very busy, but everyone who worked there was very nice. We started with some cocktails (pineapple too sour, blue too sweet), but the food was amazing! Appetizer was tuna on mashed potato with avocado, delicious. Next we shared the salmon roll and chicken and rice. Both very very good!

    Amazingly flavorful food. Great happy hour. Happy people and highly recommended. A. Price A. Food quality and taste A. Service and atmosphere

    Manta outside seating

    Chronically cool ambience and good service. But the food was not well done. Their thing is uncooked fish so other than the ceviche, would definately not recommrnd.

    New to the area this place has been open about 2 months now . There is one also located in Wynwood as well . I stopped by for a lunch while in the area to check it out Decor : The place is nice and offers inside seating . Plenty of bar seating . And outside dining options . I love the options for seating here . Eats : I was in the mood for ceviche which I came specifically for I tried out the classic ceviche . Pretty good but was extremely limed. I eat this often and it was more than the norm. I also tried the tacos which had a spin on it which was also pretty good . Comes with a lot of mayo FYI. Drinks : I tried the Margarita which was really good and priced at 15$z Staff: It wasn't busy while there but the staff still was very kind and attentive which was great. I sat at the bar

    Tonight we celebrated my husband's birthday with her son and daughter-in-law at this new local restaurant. This was our second time here the bartender and the drinks were great, the ambiance is beautiful there's a lot of money that went into the design and Decor of this restaurant. We had a lovely table and our server was Brunella, who is fantastic, she's very sweet, very helpful and very efficient!

    Causa and fried ceviche was good
    Ricardo G.

    Like others have said, the atmosphere is nice and the staff on point. But the food and drinks are way over priced for what they are. Some of their dishes are not even Peruvian: Beef stroganoff with pasta carbonara and grilled shrimp WTH??!! I will stick to Sr. Ceviche up the road for traditional Peruvian food and value.

    Pollo saltado, jalea mixta and chicha morada (the purple drink)
    Daniela M.

    The food was so good--everything tasted super fresh and well-made. We also tried some of their chicha morada and it was really refreshing, perfect for the vibe. While we were there, we noticed they have an amazing brunch selection that we're definitely coming back to try. Can't wait to return!

    Entree duck dish
    Anastasia W.

    New Peruvian restaurant! Great service and atmosphere! Our waiter was extremely attentive and brought us fresh plates and silverware for our main course. Food was delicious and had an incredible presentation. For appetizers, we split the pork belly tapas which were incredible. For entrees, we had the duck dish (picture provided) and the stuffed pepper. Amazing flavors. The stuffed pepper was on the spicier side and a heartier meal. If I had to be picky, wish my duck was a hair less cooked, and the potatoes au gratin that came with the stuffed pepper was served warmer!! Overall, great experience and will definitely be returning. Can't wait to try more dishes.

    Went last night with wife and a friend. Amazing seems to accurately describe everything here. Our server was Alexandra. Kind, knowledgeable of the menu, and genuinely caring of our experience. The Pisco Sours were top notch, the ceviche trio was amazing and the suspire dessert delicious. The atmosphere is nouveau chic. Just can't say enough about the vibe, food, and service. We will be back very soon. Oh, and great bar area!

    This place is OUTSTANDING!!! The moment you step onto the red carpet you instantly feel like you're…read morein for a special experience! The ambiance is very upscale, welcoming, and sets the tone for a memorable visit. Joey the bartender was very professional, kind, extremely welcoming and very apologetic for the Happy Hour lounge being closed the day I visited which was bit disappointing. However, my friend and I still decided to stay and enjoy a cocktail. As we were leaving, we met Tommy the manager, who was just as nice & gave us a tour of the dinner area which I would love to try one day. He briefly chatted with us and gave us his business card. Everything about this place was top-tier. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a classy night out with exceptional service or just a few appetizers & a cocktail.

    Elysium is not merely a restaurant. It's an experience that quietly transcends the boundary between…read moredining and storytelling. From the moment we walked in and were handed a glass of prosecco, it was clear this would be something different. There was an intentionality to everything--the pacing, the ambiance, the way each course was introduced. It didn't feel transactional. It felt ceremonial. Each of the six courses represented a different European destination (Portugal, Spain, France, Italy and Greece), and what made it extraordinary wasn't just the quality of the food--which was exceptional--but the way the environment transformed alongside it. Lighting, visuals, sound, and narration worked together in a way that made every dish feel contextual and meaningful, rather than simply plated. Every part of this immersive experience contained instruments working in harmony to amplify the meaning of each course. The courses were beautifully composed and balanced. Nothing felt excessive or forced. Each plate served a purpose in the broader narrative, and each wine or cocktail pairing elevated the dish rather than competing with it. What stood out most, though, was how present it made you feel. In a world where most dinners blur together, this one didn't. Time slowed down. You became immersed. Fully engaged. The service was impeccable--attentive, warm, and deeply knowledgeable without ever feeling rehearsed or overbearing. You felt guided, not served. Tommy (the owner/proprietor) and his staff were unquestionably five-stars. By the end, you remembered how it felt to be transported somewhere else without ever boarding a plane. It's worth every moment.

    This was our first time visiting the Nauti-Dawg even though I have heard about it for years…read more I read on Instagram they were having a "Steel Drum" player this evening (Wednesday) for Marina night which includes discounted burgers, wings, and a few other items. SOLD! I gathered my husband and son and headed off for a new experience. First off the atmosphere is very nice and peaceful. We love the colorful buildings and the views. We entered and met Sandy, the nicest yet down to earth hostess. She greeted us and walked us to tables toward the back which would accompany 3 people. This was away from the Steel Drums which was the main reason we were visiting the establishment. I mentioned I had called previously to make sure the steel drums were definitely playing tonight and we really wanted to be seated closer to watch and hear the entertainment. All the seats close to where he was were 2 top tables or the bar but my son is 12- so that was a "no." She then said we could sit at 2 tables but we couldn't move the chairs. We said that was GREAT as it was close to the music and we didn't mind sitting in a "line" as that's kinda like sitting at the bar. We were very pleased and had the nicest server who was very attentive and helpful. I think the manager was a little confused as to why Sandy sat our family like that but what she did was provide excellent customer service and helped our family have a peaceful relaxing evening. And, for that - Sandy is the best and say "Hi" to her next time you go there. She will do her best to assist you. We will be back to the Nauti-Dawg. The food was really good and very filling. Customer service was outstanding. And, the atmosphere is very relaxing. 5 stars from our family!
