Dined at Manja recently with a group of friends and found it to be a hidden gem!

The restaurant is housed in one of the century-old houses that had been lovingly refurbished and you can tell that the owner of this establishments has really good design taste! The restaurant has a unique menu, fusion of east meets west, and the ambiance is simply cozy.

A great place for a quiet dinner for two, and even a place to chill with friends or colleagues!

Service is quick and attentive and the servers are always with a smile.

Will definitely be back again!

Had dinner outside w/ KL tower in sight ;-)
Food was really good, yet limited options for vegetarians - many seafood dishes

We had to wait 45mins to get our first main dish and another 20mins to get our 2nd (by then I had eaten mine). They did rectify the situation with complimentary drinks and a 15% discount which we appreciated. The kitchens were under pressure with demand but they could have told us there would be a long wait for the food when we entered...HOWEVER the food here is EXCELLENT and makes it up for it just about!

Very disappointed. Waited an hour plus for the food. Service is very slow. Serving is small for a long wait.

I recently celebrated my birthday with my family here. The initial 10mins was disappointing, we had a table for 7 booked, only to arrive and noticed wet cutlery and tablecloth due to the leaking air conditioning which was right above the table. It amazed me that none of the 5 waiters buzzing around had NOT noticed this prior to our arrival.
Everything from them was excellent!! They immediately saved the day by fixing us a table upstairs, brought us complimentary welcome drinks to help calm the situation.
Overall service is a little slow however the food was amazing, very creative fusion menu featuring elements from Sri Lanka, Malaysia with a western twist.
The waiters also ended the night bringing out an extra desert with a candle for my birthday celebration +7 shots to compliment it.
Overall a very good experience and I would highly recommend it and will definitely go back!
