“best Greek food in Chicago! Coming to mana feels like home. Impeccable service, delicious food, and true hospitality. Honest to God, best food I’ve had in a while.”
“First timer here. Everything was absolutely delicious. They were understandably busy so there was a bit of a wait to get our drinks and entrees but well worth it. Definitely recommend!”
“The food and drinks were amazing !! It is super loud inside the restaurant but in a good way, very lively ambience. We had made a reservation ahead of time and were seated immediately. Our server didn’t really check on us due to them being so busy. We are willing to give them another try though since our experience was overall good.”
“Rating: 5/5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommend! I had an incredible dinner at Mána. The food was delicious—honestly, everything we ordered was great, but the tzatziki avocado was indescribable. I could have happily eaten just that all night! It was served with perfectly warm pita bread. The portions were very generous and the meals were fabulous. Beyond the food, the drinks were on point and the vibe was excellent, complete with live music. What really set the experience apart was the service. Brianna was an amazing server, and the fact that the owners and the chef made a point to stop by our table made the evening feel so personable. Dimitri truly has a gift! If you're looking for great food and a welcoming atmosphere, this is the spot.”
“Mána is fantastic. This local gem is truly one of the best restaurants in La Grange and one of our favorite experiences in the Chicago area. We’ve had a some really great date nights here… Pro tip: check them out on Thursday nights, they usually do cocktail specials and have live music. The entertainment is amazing and the overall vibe here is great. We’ve been to the Greek islands several times and mána is the total package (atmosphere, music, food, hospitality)… it all sends me right back on vacation, but a few blocks from home. That said, mána is a true authentic Greek experience and I can’t recommend them enough. We booked our restaurant week table this morning and I’m super excited for the visit.”
“Love the ambiance. Service. Food. Cocktails were 10/10. I tried two of their gin based drinks. Great spot for a low key girls night out or date night spot.”
“This place was a great experience! We ordered a bunch of shareable meze plates and were shocked by how big the portion sizes were- we were expecting small portion of everything. All the spreads we got were great (particularly the spicy feta one). The meatballs were crispy on the outside and flavorful on the inside, the crispy potatoes were crispy, the spinach flatbread was surprisingly flavorful and loaded. The flavors are pretty traditional which I love. Our server was fantastic. Finally the decor is beautiful and so is the music. I am coming back and recommending to my friends!”
“If you are looking for a new good experience than mána is a spot to not skip over. We ordered the seabass crudo, charred beet salad, crispy zucchini chips, char-grilled octopus, and lamb riblets—all beautifully plated and full of flavor. The octopus and the lamb riblets was a standout—both were perfectly tender and smoky. Everything was fresh, well-balanced, and felt both comforting and elevated. Great service and a beautiful atmosphere. The manager was constantly walking around making sure everyone was having a god time and everything as upto expectations. i highly recommend and i expect myself to make a return to Mana for another great dinner!!”
“GREAT food! The service was amazing as well! My family will definitely return!”
“10s!!! Phenomenal!! I’ve been wanting to check out more spots in the suburbs and mána did not disappoint. Every bite was an explosion of complex flavors. We enjoyed cocktails, croquettes, sea bass crudo, chargrilled octopus, and tzatziki avocado. everything hit, zero notes. That bass was one of the best crudos I’ve ever tasted. 50/10. Honorable mention to the tzatziki that we continued to dip our dishes in throughout the meal. We finished with the rice pudding creme brûlée which put me right to sleep. I cannot wait to return and try some of the more indulgent entrees. Biggest thank you to Fernando and Kimi who made us feel safe and taken care of. 🫶🏾”
“Had an excellent experience (food, drink + service) at Mána in La Grange — what an amazing spot! From the spreads and grilled octopus to the lamb chops, branzino, and desserts, every dish was bursting with flavor and perfectly presented. (not shown: the amazing cocktails that made it even better.”
