Mannaweenta

Jonathan Lee a month ago

Quite the enjoyable spot for a taste of Ethiopia! I got the yebere tibbs meat plate and chose the yemiseer wot (red lentils) and okra wot for my sides. The meat was tender, and the sides paired well. Lopping up some meat cubes and veggies with injera made for a delicious meal. Definitely give Mannaweenta a visit if you’re looking to try something new!

SO. DANG. GOOD. You know those places where you can just taste the authenticity, where the care and love radiates off the plate and somehow makes the flavor all the better? This is one of those places. If you're in Athens and enjoy Ethiopian cuisine or want to try something new, Mannaweenta is a must-visit. If you like lamb, the Yebeg Tibbs is an absolute must. And an extra serving of injera is a borderline ethical mandate. Give this business your time. It is worth all of it.

I wholeheartedly disagree with the one-star reviewer's assertion that Mannaweenta lacks the flavor of "more authentic" Ethiopian/Eritrean restaurants in the Atlanta area and even go as far to say I wouldn't be surprised if she's affiliated with a restaurant there. Before Mannaweenta even opened in Athens, I'd make it a point to get Ethiopian food wherever available and have had it in Chicago, NYC, west Philly, DC, Austin, TX, Minneapolis, Los Angeles, Atlanta, and even Dar es Salaam. Mannaweenta is definitely in the top tier in terms of flavor. In the past year I've had Ethiopian food at Lalibela in Los Angeles and Bahel in Atlanta and while I thoroughly enjoyed the food both places, they didn't seem to have the level of flavor as Mannaweenta. Unless there's some flavors for which my Caucasian palette is entirely missing the taste buds, I certainly put Mannaweenta near the top of all the Ethiopian restaurants I've eaten at over the past 20 years. Mannaweenta is absolutely worth checking out. Go ahead and try it. And go check out other Ethiopian restaurants when you're near them. They're all kinda great, but you will not find Mannaweenta is watered down compared to them. For those

Great food! I’ve been to 15-20 Ethiopian restaurants across various US cities, and this is one I’ll be returning to. The food tastes great, I loved the vegetarian and vegan options, and it was all very reasonably priced. Thank you for the wonderful meal

Wonderful service, took orders and was served the food quickly. Great food, with lots of flavor and options for everyone in your group. Calm environment where everyone can be heard and have a nice meal. Very reasonable prices as well for the amount you get.
