Manami

Manami is a restaurant serving Asian fusion cuisine, including Japanese, Indian, and Thai dishes. It has four locations in Vilnius, one in the Old Town, and I visited it.

The restaurant’s decor is interesting for an Asian restaurant. It has a jungle-themed feel with a mix of modern and avant-garde. The green plants, citrine-colored chairs, and throw pillows really pop against the dark accent wall. Next to the entrance are throne-like rattan chairs.

The restaurant offers an extensive menu of ramen, curries, soups, wok dishes, stir-fries, donburi, and other dishes at reasonable prices.

I ordered a drink, soup, and fried rice. For the drink, I got the Yamato, which is fresh watermelon, mint leaves, lemon, and strawberries (€ 3.20). For the soup, I went for the soup of the day, which is a vegetable mushroom soup (€1.20). Lastly, I got the Kimuchi Chahan, which is spicy rice with chicken thighs, carrots, button mushrooms, Chinese cabbage, eggs, garlic, soybean sprouts, chili pepper, soy sauce, and fresh coriander.

The drink was refreshing and creamy, with a good balance of sweetness and acidity.

The soup had a lovely, creamy broth. The mushrooms’ flavor did not overpower the overall taste, and the fried shallots gave the soup an extra punch.

The fried rice was on point! It was well seasoned with a bit of heat. It had all the elements of a tasty fried rice – the right amount of oil, perfect seasoning, and a simple medley of ingredients.

The service was standard, but I decided to give a little tip because I enjoyed the food so much.
