    Mana Mana has the best falafel in the area! Everything is so so delicious, but I especially love the falafel and schnitzel with hummus, pita, salads, etc. Don't forget the fries! Their hummus and tahini are the most authentic I've had around here. The new location is gorgeous, spacious and very comfortable. The food is made to order and comes out hot and fresh. Phenomenal service. If I could give more stars I would.

    Large Falafel Platter. I had a lot to take home
    Lorrain G.

    Delicious Israeli food. I had the large falafel platter. The best falafel I've ever eaten. Others had chicken platters. We all loved our meal. I will say the parking is a challenge. The garage with red awnings is a self pay. I didn't do well with it. I parked across from the garage.Park Mobile but I couldn't pull up the QR code. It was quite high up. Did not get a ticket. Also the Station Square gate on Cleveland was locked. There are spaces on Cleveland but you have to pay. Really Clearwater this does not help our local downtown businesses. Do try Manamana . You will love it Very pleasant server‼

    Falafel Pita

    We loved our falafel platter/falafel pita! The service was quick and the restaurant was nice and clean. I want to just make a point that this restaurant is inside quite a large building so to find the entrance you must go inside the parking garage on the backside of the building. We had parked in the front and found it quite difficult to find their new location, back is best. Hope this helps! We'll be back when we're in the area.

    Falafel

    The best Middle Eastern food I've had since visiting Israel! The owner Ami was incredibly attentive, kind, and informative. The falafel was exceptional - crispy on the outside and moist/soft on the inside. The pita was so fluffy and warm. The shawarma was juicy, flavorful, and delicious. I truly have zero complaints. Parking was weird since we had some trouble locating the restaurant to begin with. We parked on a side street and walked around until we found it. But once we found it.... WOWWW!!!!

    I can't believe that I forgot to review Mana Mana !! It has been a little over year but I'll never forget that place!! Although I'm Egyptian but I don't die for Falafel and I was going to Mana Mana to get the Kebabs ! But oh no! I couldn't resist the Falafel smell! Yes!! Good Authentic Falafel actually usually have a good smell!! Fried pepper? Fried eggplants?? Chopped Israeli salad?? Wow! I couldn't resist all of that tried everything!! I usually don't repeat restaurants no matter what on my trips so I can get to try more ( Clearwater Beach is actually rich with good restaurants!!) But again Mana Mana broke my rules again and I found myself really wants to go again! And I enjoyed it with no regrets! Actually I regretted but only that I didn't go for a third, fourth, Fifth or everyday! Wait a min I only stayed there 3 nights! So yeah 2 times out of 3 days! That's big! I loved it! Ami the owner is a separate story! This very welcoming guy was so friendly and we quickly engaged in a beautiful conversation !! Our countries fought in the past ( 1967 & 1973) , signed a peace agreement in 1978 at Camp David , Egypt & Israel cooperates a lot on counter terrorism matters , although some radical groups don't like that but myself and many others look at Israel as the good neighbor , friend and ally ! I love Israel and the Israeli food has many common items with a unique taste! We also had a conversation about soccer! My 2 visits there was really wonderful! My strong recommendation: Stop by, buy your food and eat once at the restaurant, speak with Ami if he is available, try to sample everything on the menu! Also go another time and pick up your food and eat at the beach!! You will never regret, don't forget to vote if you like the food, review it yourself and tell us what you think about it and of course don't forget to pray for me! Lol

    Shawarma Plate
    Rivka P.

    I add my 5-stars to everybody else's. The shawarma is chicken instead of lamb, but I don't think I would have known if they hadn't told me. It tastes like yummy shawarma spices. Plus the eggplant and salads were delicious, especially the homemade hummus. The restaurant is very tiny with just a few tables, but lots of people order carry-out. And the platter was big. I ate it for 3 meals.

The waitress was prompt and attentive. Mirage features a lunch buffet, so I was able to sample small portions of a lot of offerrings. My first plate was filled with selections from the cold salad station (hummas, pita, Persan picket, baba ganosh, etc.). The entree station had four different rice (balas) preparations. There was Basmati rice, a savory rice and two of the balas were sweetened with fruit and spices. All were tasty. The proteins were primarily chicken selections, but there was a beef koobideh that was also delicious. There were a broad selection of lentil and vegetable stews, so I made multiple trips to the station eating them as a side dish to a protein, over basmati rice and savory rice preparations. It may have been a cultural fax paux, but I treated the falafel like a cornbread muffin as I enjoyed the stewed vegetables and lentils. It was a good meal polished off with a serving of baklava.

My friend had a chicken swarma pita and I had a custom bowl. It is an excellent concept. The bowl starts with two bases. I opted for spring greens and quinoa, but there are several choices including rice if preferred . Then one can choose up to eight different items , a sauce and then on to protein choices. My falafel was cooked while I waited. It was very tast and not as dry as some I've tried. The bowl was 12.95 and was enough for two meals for me. My friend said the sandwich was excellent and she managed to finish it. Service was good, people were friendly and the place was very clean. It is a cafeteria style but not too busy. Definitely worth a return visit to try all the options. There are also wraps on offer and kebabs. And I did notice while I was waiting for my falafel that the place serves only halal meat if that is important to you. As a vegetarian I found plenty of fresh options. I recommend this place.

Right away I spot their tandoori clay oven right in the back & they have two shawarma spits right up front that smell so delicious OMG! :)... So I get some of the beef shawarma on top of the hummus... I have not had it like this before but WOZA! That is some good stuff baby! I ate almost all of it by myself. LOL I also got the Chicken kabobs. They were cooked perfectly. Nicely charred on the outside & tender & juicy on the inside, seasoned perfectly. Can not wait to order both of these dishes again OuiOui. The super surprising thing is that you get two sides with your 2 kabob platter plus rice & salad. I got the tabouli & hummus. It also comes with fresh made pita that they also make in house, which is fabulous OuiOui. But their tabouli. WOZA! Their tabouli is the best I have ever had. They make theirs with, I'm guessing, white vinegar? It's super tangy & very fresh tasting. Very pungent. Magnificent OuiOui. When I took some home for Sir Hubbers, I didn't say anything & all of a sudden he started raving about the Tabouli also. LOL Their dine in is super cute, but very small, it's mostly a take out place, everything on paper plates for dine in, which was fine. Everything is reasonably priced, entrees under $19!

We sat outside on the water and it was a little cool but a light jacket made it comfortable. It was a beautiful day! We started with Turkish Coffee, which was delicious! We have no idea how to "read the coffee grounds" HAHA but I can tell you mine looked like a duck and a crooked United States, if that helps anyones premonitions, LOL. We ordered the babaganouj appetizer, which was DELICIOUS!! It comes with pita, but for me, being gluten intolerant I asked for some vegetable. Waiter offered cucumber, but he only gave me 3 tiny pieces....so sad. Whatever, I wasnt going to let it go to waste so I just ate it with a fork. However I would suggest offering a proper portion of sliced cucumbers for your Gluten Free patrons, as a courtesy. I ordered the gluten free Falafel Salad and my son ordered the Yogurt Kebab. Both were very enjoyable! My falafels were moist on the inside with a crisp outer shell, my only suggestion would be to add a little Feta to the salad, wouldve been more interesting than pkind of plain and redundant--especially for just under $20. My son enjoyed his dish, even using the pita to scoop it up. We were so full and brought more than half home. The waiter was very kind and was generous to offer us a complimentary piece of Baklava (we had waited a bit for our food but it wasnt really a big deal--we were enjoying ourselves). Parking is a bit of a challenge because Columbia Rest and Backwaters has Valet that sort of capitalize the parking area-so plan ahead for that. We went at 2pm so it wasnt too difficult but I would guess dinner might be a challenge unless you use their Valet services--but Im only guessing. The restaurant is cute inside, and I saw they had a wine cooler. I think we'll go again and order a bunch of different appetizers and try some Turkish wine. I highly recommend trying Mio's!
