GREAT food! The service was amazing as well! My family will definitely return!

I've never been so disappointed in a restaurant. I actually got into it with the manager before we left about how bad the service was, he insisted that he understood and would remedy the situation with us. His remedy was to send us a small coupon for use at our next visit, which I found hilarious. I'm pretty sure it was our specific waiter, people that sat down after us were getting their dishes before our drink orders were taken, and then paying their check and leaving before we got our mains. The food is fine, just fine, all the reviews talking about how amazing the food is...you need to get out more. The ambiance is loud, indoors it's deafening, and if you sit outdoors you get to experience the sites and sounds of a busy street driving so close to your table that you have to duck if a bus drives by or you might lose your head. If the service wasn't as bad as it was and the traffic noise wasn't so deafening, I'd maybe give 2 stars, but seriously the food is mediocre especially at that price point. Never again.
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. 🫶🏾

I had dinner last night at Mána, last night, and had an amazing experience. From the food to the drinks, amazing service from Juan and the desserts AMAZING. This is now my new restaurant to go to in La Grange.

Served frozen baklava for dessert. The pastitsio was extremely dry over baked. Dish did not match menu description. Very attentive service.

All the food was exceptionally delicious, and coming from a Greek party, that says a lot. We went for brunch and every dish we tried was full of flavor. The atmosphere is also very nice with very pretty up to date decor. The only thing I'd say is that they could have used an additional server for a Sunday afternoon. Strongly recommended and we'll definitely be back.

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.

The one star is for the handling of carryout. We tried to call in a carryout order and the phone went straight to voicemail several times over the span of 30 mins. We decided to try online carryout through one of their 3rd party options. I have used these like door dash a few times and nowhere I have ever seen such a horrible markup. I wanted to order the prime beef gyro and it was marked up to 52$ from 34$. That is ridiculous to pay 18$ more for a pickup. The restaurant needs to keep these prices in check and also provide the option to call in orders. The 3rd party price shouldn't be marked up this much just for using the ordering platform to pickup. I understand a couple bucks, but not a 50% upcharge.
Definitely pricey for what you get 2 cokes 1 chicken shish kabob and a beef gyro which was three 4 inch round pitas with vary little meat and potatoes which was vary dry to eat that in its self was 33.00 and flaming cheese. Had to laugh bread before the meal is 2 cold pieces of toast with olive oil smh total bill with tip 120.00 ...... btw I never leave reviews

The ambience is a bit louder than I prefer, especially since I was with a group of friends I would’ve liked to hear more clearly. That said, the restaurant itself is beautiful, with artful food presentation and amazing drinks.
The waitstaff could be a touch more attentive—we waited longer than usual for our drinks. One friend was disappointed to find her preferred meal already sold out by 6:30 p.m., and the wine she wanted from the menu was also unavailable.
However, our waiter was exceptionally kind, offering alternative suggestions and willing to provide samples so she could find something she enjoyed. That thoughtful service is why I’m still giving this restaurant 4 stars instead of less.
I usually judge a place on whether I am willing to go back. I definitely am.
After visiting Greece last summer, my husband and I have been eyeing this restaurant for months. We finally visited on our anniversary and were happy we did! As soon as we entered, we were greeted by the manager and staff. We opted to sit outside- very loud- definitely sit inside if you can. We were served complimentary bread and olives that were both good. For starters, we ordered Saganaki, the village salad, and fried zucchini. The Saganaki tasted better than it looked and had a perfect crust. The village salad was exactly like the authentic salads in Greece- I was just missing the bites of coarse salt. The fried zucchini, although thin and light, were a little mushy and lacked salt. For our entree, we decided to share lamb chops because the appetizers nearly filled us up (and there were so many we wanted to try- spicy feta, calamari, and spicy shrimp we’re coming for you). The lamb chops arrived, although slightly more medium well than medium, were charred and seasoned to perfection. The potatoes were thick, crunchy exterior, pillowy insides. Delectable. Our waitress was also kind enough to bring out dessert for our anniversary. She really highlighted the pistachio gelato but my husband was feeling the greek yogurt semifreddo- the honey was delicious- the dessert overall- just okay. From the service to the meal, everything was great! We look forward to our next mini visit to Greece!
