We've been to Mana three times and every time it's an absolutely incredible experience. The food is all locally sourced. The courses and thoughtfully curated and complementary. The wine and drink pairings are perfection. There is no way a person could create something like this on their own at home and for that reason we will be back again and again.

What an Amazing restaurant in a great location! Situated nicely in the University Village, Piatti is a slice of Italian cuisine and Great service and ambience. Anna, the Sweetest server, was attentive and friendly. The food choices are many, and the flavors are Exceptional! I will be back again and again!

Service was above and beyond, birthday girls got special menus and dessert, brunch is served until 3pm!
Dawn
The menu is very small and limited, their food was not very outstanding as far as flavor goes and the server spilled my drink and didn't clean it, just left the puddle for my only napkin to clean it.

Amazing dinner experience to celebrate my wife's birthday. Nice touch with “Happy Birthday” on the menus. Shout out to Melissa who was extremely attentive. My wife has been having GI issues so she had to be more careful than usual and Melissa made sure the kitchen was aware as well as that my wife was ok with everything.

I had short rib sugo and the flavors were outstanding and robust. The pasta is unlike anything I've ever had. It will be the barometer by which I judge all others. Daughter ordered steak and it had excellent flavor.

Attentive and very family friendly service. Relaxing and specious dinning room. Good for family with young kids.
Nannette
Very good food. Friendly staff. The prawns added to my salad were quite overcooked. Dry and crunchy. The bread was excellent.
Kaiden
Some of the best pasta and a great ambiance. Would be a 5 stars but the pizza wasn't the best and it's located at a mall which isn't ideal for parking.
Brandon Jones
Not worth the price. Food was not great and pretty sure the shrimp were frozen for too long, definitely cooked for too long, rubbery. Would not go again and would not recommend to others. Also, Huge garlic chunks in pasta.
The pasta based dishes are very good, they know their stuff, and we were very well looked after. Great experience. But tiramisu without coffee or cocoa (not to mention a dash of Amaretto), well, oops!

Manager was awful to us. It was bad enough that the staff was visibly embarrassed. The GM/Owner should pull the staff aside to see if this is a regular occurrence and the landlord/property manager may want to consider if guests having this type of experience aligns with what they are comfortable with at University Village.

The food was okay, but a bit too salty for my liking. I was also surprised to see a 5% surcharge added to the bill at the end. I didn’t notice any mention of this on the menu, which felt a bit sneaky. Overall, the experience was just average, and I don’t see myself coming back.

My family brought me here the first time on Mother’s Day 2024. They lost our order and we waited a long time and complained several times. I think they comped our food. I can’t remember for sure.
Anyway I decided to give them a try tonight. I ordered the Caesar salad as I remembered how good it was from before. The waiter did not ask if I wanted pepper. I also ordered the Lemon ricotta ravioli (I’m a sucker for piccata, thought this might be similar). It tasted more of brown butter than lemon. Lastly I ordered prosciutto wrapped asparagus with a balsamic reduction. It was probably mostly my fault-these two things did not go well together.
Yes, I was disappointed, probably won’t go back. There was a lot of chatter from the kitchen too. Too loud. Decor was nice. Waitstaff was polite but not a great server. Didn’t ask if I wanted desert. Probably a student.
Almost forgot the cocktail. Can’t remember the name. Tuscan redo or something. It was yummy.

Piatti serves tasty Italian dishes in a stylish setting with friendly service. Our family had the romaine salad, short rib sugo, lasagna, bolognese, cioppino, and lemon ricotta ravioli. Everyone enjoyed their food, but portions felt small for the price.
I had the cioppino—nice, hearty broth but light on seafood and not as fresh as what you'd get at Duke’s. Overall, a pleasant meal, just on the expensive side.
