Manam Greenbelt

Jessilyn was are server very accommodating and fast service. The food was absolutely delicious and worth it. The flavors were well-balanced, the ingredients tasted fresh, and every bite was satisfying. The portion was generous and the presentation was pleasing. Definitely a place I’d come back to and recommend to others. Most recommend is the singang sa pakwan

Manam’s tagline is ‘Comfort Filipino’ and seems to live up to its name, judging by the many local families and groups of friends tucking in with gusto. We had a few dishes - kare-kare, gising-gising and the butterflied pla pla fish. The fish in particular was excellent: crispy on the outside and just cooked on the inside. The wait staff were efficient, especially considering how crowded the restaurant was. Although it sometimes took a while to get their attention, our server remembered our orders and was prompt in ensuring our dessert was served. I think it’s a good place for newcomers to Filipino food. Be prepared to wait for a table though!

Manam Manila has a lively, fast-paced atmosphere, filled with families and constant movement—very much a home-style, everything-happening-at-once kind of energy. The place feels warm and dynamic, with conversations, plates moving quickly, and a steady buzz throughout the dining room. The food arrived efficiently and was satisfying, offering comforting Filipino flavors that feel familiar and generous. Service was quick and attentive, clearly used to managing a high-volume crowd while keeping things running smoothly. Overall, Manam Manila delivers a vibrant, family-friendly dining experience where everything moves fast, feels alive, and reflects the spirit of a busy Filipino household.

Had friends who were in the Philippines for the first time and brought them to Manam as a way to introduce them to Filipino cuisine, as it’s super popular with locals. Ordered a bunch of seafood and tofu dishes as one of us can’t eat pork but I was pleasantly surprised! The Sinigang na Hipon was especially popular with them and they really enjoyed their meal 4 stars only because it’s not necessarily the most accommodating for certain dietary restrictions (no pork/vegetarian) as I was informed that a lot of the dishes are pre-portioned so can’t request things to not be included in the dish. Not a massive deal breaker though as can find ways around. Our servers Kuya Ace and Ate Jessilyn were especially lovely, considering we had loads of questions. Would still visit again!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this fantastic restaurant, which is part of a chain. The menu features local dishes that have been thoughtfully updated, and every single bite was absolutely amazing. I’ve rarely had such incredible food in the Philippines! The staff was exceptional, always attentive and ready to help, explaining the dishes and checking in to make sure everything was perfect. The ambiance was unique and welcoming, striking a perfect balance between lively and cozy. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting, especially tourists—it’s an experience not to be missed!”

We recently dined at Manam as a group of four and ordered sisig, beef sinigang, kare-kare, and crispy pata. While the other dishes were good as expected, our experience with the crispy pata was disappointing. The waiting time for our orders was noticeably longer compared to other Manam branches. When the food was served, the crispy pata was missing. We assumed it would arrive shortly, but halfway through our meal, it still hadn’t been served. We followed up with the staff and were told it would be coming soon. At that point, we were already considering canceling it. When the crispy pata finally arrived, we were almost done eating. We tried a few pieces but immediately noticed something was off. The meat was very dry and hard, and the taste seemed old and unpleasant. Because of this, we could not continue eating it. One of the servers approached us and asked for feedback, and we honestly shared our experience. She apologized and said she would relay our comments to the kitchen. She also mentioned that our crispy pata was originally meant to be served with the rest of our dishes, but there were issues with the first one prepared, which caused the delay. In the end, the crispy pata was removed from our bill, and they also sent us bibingka as a goodwill gesture, which we appreciated. This was disappointing because we’ve had Manam’s crispy pata before and know this is not their usual quality. Hopefully, this was a one-time issue. We still appreciate Manam and the way the staff handled the situation, and we hope this feedback helps improve future service.

An amazing place actually there was a queue but wait was probably 10 minutes at most and when we were seated whilst it was very busy we got served in a few minutes not too bad considering it was a full house we ordered a couple of the signature tissues, the pork, the sidig and the veggies. Was actually delicious ended up ordering 2 cups of rice which were huge. Mills were amazing great Gulley for money and just pure delicious. Any of their chains are worth a visit. This one was especially well maintain very busy. Must visit if you’re in a shopping area otherwise go somewhere that’s closer to you order all their signature dishes worth ordering.

It was a Filipino experience, wish the food was also top notch. I ordered the sizzling crispy sinigang, beef salpicao & garlic and garlic rice. Sinigang was OK but the beef was chewy. Rice OK, as to be expected. The table was not stable, too much noise inside, needs a bit more sound absorbing materials. Overall an OK experience.
