Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We attended a private gourmet dinner for 33 people at this restaurant, with a special menu designed for us by the restaurant. It was absolutely superb, creative, delicious and beautifully presented. I was also impressed that the chef and owner Constantin managed to serve each dish at the same time to everyone and nobody was kept waiting.
First course: Peruvian corvina ceviche with tiger´s milk, sweet potato chips, plantain chips and the scent of rocoto and lime.
Second course: Steamed Japanese bao bread stuffed with cochinita pibil, pico de gallo and Hoisin sauce.
Third course: Tuna tataki with wakame seaweed, wasabi mayonnaise and green sesame.
Fourth course: Lebanese kefta with pistachio dukkah curry and quinoa couscous.
Dessert: Crepe suzette flambeed with Grand Marnier at the table.
The cost was €30pp which included a glass of wine or beer. I thought this was excellent value for the quality and originality of the food served. As our friends at our table said, we would have been to this restaurant much sooner had we known just how good the food is. Highly recommended.

A very nice restaurant on the beach front. We ordered the Chuleton (Rib Eye) steak with potatoes and garnishes and a bottle of wine, for two. 59 euros and excellent value. The wine we had was a nice Rueda. The steak was cooked perfectly and there was so much that we brought enough home for lunch the next day. There were two types of potatoes, plenty of veg and a sauce. We added on a lovely Crème Brule. The service was excellent and the waiter friendly and knowledgeable. Nice also to have background music. Would definitely recommend.

The food, although nothing spectacular in terms of quality, was good: rice just right, very tasty Valencian paella (a little socarrat for my taste), scarce but homemade croquettes and acceptable mussels with parmesan. The best, without a doubt, is the dessert. The price on most dishes was good, considering the area. The surprise came when the most expensive thing was the portion of bread with all i Oli. As is common in these types of places, they try to charge you an exorbitant price for typical products that we know are not worth it. The service, the worst. They made a mistake a couple of times with the order and the owner created an uncomfortable and unpleasant situation when we asked a question about the bill.

Today I had dinner there and as always excellent!!! 👍🏻
Very good tapas, fast service, very attentive and friendly waiters.
At the last minute, on a hot August night, after a long day of work, without losing your smile or kindness 🥰
The chef's dessert, passion fruit cake with white chocolate and almonds, accompanied by cream, dulce de leche and strawberries, spectacular!!! 😋
It was a homemade cake in individual format, worthy of the best pastries.
The contrast of the sweetness of white chocolate and the freshness of Passion Fruit, a great success from Chef Constantin 👏🏻👏🏻
It was so good that I didn't even have time to take a photo...🤷🏼♀️ (I'll post a photo next time)
Tania, as always a love ♥️

We ordered calamari and patatas bravas to share as a mini starter...bravas sauce covered the potatoes, it was congealed and tasted like tomato soup - poor! The calamari was tasteless. My daughter's chicken poke main course came with the starters! It tasted good but she'd almost finished when our mains arrived. My husband wanted the tuna tataki but when he asked could he swap the mash for chips he was told no and he had to buy the chips. We ordered the burgers which were delicious as were the accompanying chips. When the burgers arrived we were offered sauces, asked for ketchup and mayo. We were charged one euro for each. Unbelievable. If you are going to charge then warn the customer. We have a holiday home in Altea and Mana was recommended to us, whilst the burgers were good the other problems far outweigh this.

I went there alone, I asked for 2 portions of Paella (for 2 people) obviously they charge me for 2, but they gave me just a little bit more than 1 portion.
I went back the same night with friends, we ordered a different kind of paella but always for 2 people, and the quantity was much more.
This is UNFAIR, if I ask for paella for 2 people and you charge me paella for 2 people, you must give paella for 2 people.

Incredible site! In front of the promenade, very pleasant premises and terrace.
The salads and rice dishes looked great, at a very good price. We also tried the tuna tataki which we loved, in addition to the dessert they recommended.
The treatment of the workers was unbeatable even with the terrace full of people!
We will definitely repeat if we return to Altea!

We were dissappointed that in a tapas- restaurant we could not order a plate of Different tapas. The small dishes was boring and not very tasteful. The paella tasted ordinary and burned. The kids who ordered refular burger was satisfied, but the chicken- burger was also rather boring.

We came across this restaurant whilst on a day out and looking for lunch. Inside looked very tempting but we chose to sit outside in the Nov sun. We went for the set menu at 18.90€ and have a lovely meal. We started with salad which wasn’t a boring choice at all as it was served in a kind of wafer basket and had a delicious sauce. Then we had steak, beautifully cooked, with chips to die for and tasty veg. We finished with home made tiramisu which was a delight. The waiter was very welcoming and pleasant and we had a nice chat. My only small negative is the high cost of a sin alcohol beer. However, when we return to Altea, we will probably visit again.

Visited here yesterday for lunch as a big group while we spent the day in Altea. 100% recommend!! We were all blown away by the quality of the food as well as the presentation and friendly service. Several of us opted for the set menu (starter, main, dessert and bread and alioli) which was great value for money at 18.90€. I had the blue cheese and pear quiche which was one of the best things I’ve ever tasted, followed by the seafood fideua and a chocolate mousse for dessert. Everything was great. Very cleanly too re COVID measures including bottles of hand sanitizer on the tables. Very impressed and hope to return one day if I’m back in Altea!

Maná is smart to be open on a Monday, as many restaurants tend to be closed, especially when it's a national holiday.
What a find though. The ambiance is nice and lounge-like, and as it's not directly located next to the road, it feels much quieter than some of the other lounges we have been to around the beach areas.
The service was quick and on par, very friendly and professional staff. We took the pokebowl, skewers and chicken burger and it was good and proper food. Fresh, well presented and good on portion, too. True value for money! We will definitely come back.

We have visited Mana several times because as we live locally, Mana has the best food and the best prices. We like the menu and Constantine and Tanya are the perfect hosts.
We enjoy to sit inside but the terrace has a fine sea view. We did arrive late for lunch but they still kept the kitchen open for us. Highly recommended!
