Mana Restaurant in Köln

The waiters of this restaurant do not know what they are doing at all. Be careful when ordering!!! And more important than this, I had heard many times from acquaintances, but I didn't believe it!!! I introduced 11 people to Mana restaurant, but it was frowned upon from the beginning to the end Not good food, not music, and finally not being critical and a big bill!!! Unfortunately, the problem of all compatriots who own restaurants is that they get a little busy... In any case, please don't insult our intelligence!!!!

Nice evening spent with Persian food and live music, if you like, dance to the music or enjoy the evening like that.

The quality of the food is very high and varied, as is excellent management with professional service. If you want to taste the authentic taste of Iranian cuisine, I recommend you go to this restaurant.

It doesn't work. Doesn't work at all.

Top! Really good. They could be much more famous if they were in innenstadt

Enjoy exclusive and authentic Persian cuisine - ideal for real connoisseurs and lovers of fine taste. Absolutely recommended!✌️✌️✌️

A real insider tip that many people won't know. This Persian restaurant is hidden in the middle of an industrial area. Traveling by car or bike is ideal. Anyone who has ever been to Iran or a neighboring country like Tajikistan will feel transported to this country. In a kind of park there is a Persian garden pavilion that looks like it comes from another world. A lot of it is improvised, and maybe there is instead There are only two dishes on the menu to choose from - but they are extremely tasty and served with amazing hospitality. Follow the kitchen's recommendations. The prices are more than fair. I was here for the first time, but definitely not the last.

The atmosphere in the restaurant was very welcoming, warm and familiar. I felt very comfortable, the live music made this even more of a highlight for me, you immediately wanted to dance along. About the food: Kubideh and Djudje tasted very good, Ghormeh Sabzi was quite good in terms of taste, you could tell that it was well cooked, the meat was nice and tender, but for me personally there was too much oil in it than I'm normally used to am. The rice was also very good. I would definitely come again.

Delicious food and great live music made our evening very enjoyable. Gladly again!

Das Essen war sehr lecker, Service freundlich und Ambiente sehr einladend. Wir habe Vorspeise Platte und Grill Platte bestellt, die uns sehr gefallen hat.

Traditional and extremely delicious Iranian cuisine. From the starters like kashke bademjan to the grilled specialties, everything is recommended and incredibly tasty. The service is TOP! This visit rounded off our trip to Cologne wonderfully. We'd love to come back!

Great authentic food, excellent service and a good price. Recommended!!

It was super tasty, service was super nice and you felt like a star when you entered. The location is decorated with love. I can only recommend it!

We went to the restaurant for the first time last night and celebrated a friend's birthday. We all enjoyed the food very much and the quality was significantly better compared to other Persian restaurants in Cologne. The service was very good and the employees were all very friendly. We also liked the atmosphere - very inviting and cozy. A big plus point is the numerous free parking spaces. We'll definitely be back!

I had braised lamb and Persian-style lamb tongues as a starter. Perfectly prepared and really delicious. Service also very friendly and quick.

La comida era tradicional y delicioso, el servicio también era increíble y amable. No hablábamos alemán e hicieron un esfuerzo para ayudarnos. Las porciones son generosas

The quality of the food was fairly average, and it wasn't as delicious as other Iranian restaurants, while being more expensive at the same time.

Have a very nice evening, thank you The food so perfect and friendly. Nabashid caste Great red wine and service 1a LG khasteh nabshid

Tuve una experiencia increíble en este restaurante! La comida era absolutamente deliciosa, llena de sabores auténticos, y muy bien presentado. El servicio fue de primera categoría, con personal amable y atento. Todo, desde el ambiente hasta la atención al detalle, hizo que la comida fuera inolvidable. Recomiendo encarecidamente este lugar para cualquiera que busque disfrutar de una experiencia gastronómica excepcional

غذا بسیار خوشمزه و سرویس خیلی مهربان بود.نا آخر هفته رفتیم اونجا و موزیک زنده هم داشتند. وخیلی به ما خوش گذشت. من جوجه کباب اناری رو پیشنهاد میکنم.

Very nice team, good food. The yard needs to be a little more spacious.

We went there for lunch, besides the really good food, I requested an extra rice portion and it came for free. The personnel were so friendly and caring and I recommend this restaurant.

Gesternabend waren wir mit paar Freunden zum ersten Mal in Mana Restaurant. Fazit: Musik war gut. Die Bedienung an sich ebenfalls. Das Essen war nicht befriedigend. Auf Anfrage des Kellners: Alles in Ordnung? Antwortete ich sehr leise, dass ich grds. mit dem Essen nicht zufrieden bin und habe dies auch begründet. Kurz danach erschien die „Kochchefin“ und dementierte alles mit aus meiner Sicht falscher Aussagen. Alle meiner Bemühungen diese zu erklären, war sinnlos. Am Ende ging sie auch, ohne eine Entschuldigung bzw. dass beispielsweise dies in Zukunft beachtet werden würde, gar nichts. Daher haben wir uns entschieden, diesen Laden nicht mehr zu betreten. Es scheint übrigens, dass sie hier auf Kritik nicht pos. reagieren und tatsächlich nicht erwünscht ist. Daher werde ich diesen Restaurant nicht empfehlen!

The behavior of the staff was good and respectful. Friendly and intimate. But the food was very bad. The grilled chicken was really bad. It was dry and had no taste. The knocker was acceptable. The knock was very ordinary. The amount of rice was also small.

Beautiful and relaxing atmosphere, very good treatment of staff along with delicious food . Thank you

Very, very good food and really nice service :) We were very satisfied and would like to come back.

This was our second time there and we think it's just great. We say thank you and see you next time🤗

The quality of the food is very ordinary, friends, just pay attention to the bill, they will pay you. In short, instead of 4 drinks, they count 8 drinks. Doulas are calculating Only the music was good. .

Very tasty food, very attentive service.

Delicious food, large vegan selection and very friendly service. There are even two very lovely dogs running around here. :)

Very good food, fantastic first impression, and even got a special gift. Thanks Mana :)

Food was delicious and friendly service. Took us some time to find the restaurant from the hotel, but it was worth the walk. Highly recommended!

katastrophe Sehr unfreundliche Personal das Essen und Fleich nicht frisch werde ich nicht nochmal hin einmal und niewieder

Ich möchte meine extreme Unzufriedenheit und Frustration über den schockierenden Service und die respektlose Behandlung, die wir in Ihrem Restaurant erfahren haben, zum Ausdruck bringen. Schon zu Beginn unseres Besuchs fanden wir zwei Haare im Essen meiner Frau. Als wir diesen eklatanten Hygienemangel der Besitzerin des Restaurants ruhig und diskret mitteilten, erhielten wir lediglich eine müde Entschuldigung – ohne jegliches Angebot, das Essen zu ersetzen. Stattdessen brachte man uns nach etwa zehn Minuten ein Eis als "Entschuldigung", obwohl meine Frau nach diesem Vorfall verständlicherweise jeglichen Appetit verloren hatte und keinen Wunsch nach weiterer Nahrung verspürte. Der absolute Tiefpunkt ereignete sich jedoch beim Bezahlen: Zu meinem Entsetzen stellte ich fest, dass der Preis für das zurückgegebene Gericht, in dem sich die Haare befanden, dennoch berechnet wurde. Als ich freundlich Einspruch erhob, reagierte die Besitzerin des Restaurants in einem herablassenden und unverschämten Ton. Sie befahl der Kassiererin, die Kosten für das Essen "einfach zu streichen", bestand jedoch darauf, dass das Eis bezahlt werden müsse. Noch schlimmer, sie ignorierte uns vollständig und verließ uns ohne ein Wort des Abschieds oder einen Hauch von Höflichkeit. Diese demütigende Erfahrung war besonders enttäuschend, da ich an diesem Abend Gäste bewirtete, die ich seit 15 Jahren nicht gesehen hatte. Es versteht sich von selbst, dass ich unter keinen Umständen jemals wieder Ihr Restaurant betreten werde und es jedem dringend davon abrate, dort zu speisen.

The food is fantastic as is the service.

A really great Persian restaurant with really nice service and very tasty food. There are even dishes on the menu that are not available in other Persians. DELICIOUS. Will come again

A hidden gem!! Really nice food! Good quality friendly staff !

The food was really tasty and good. The meat is very tender and juicy. We even got the salad for free. The service was very perfect and courteous. The waiters saw that the wasps were bothering us and quickly lit a fan and something to keep the wasps away. I recommend this restaurant. Would go again and again.

Authentic, very tasty Iranian grilled specialties, definitely recommended! Tender meat, super tasty rice! Great value for money, friendly and nice service! Unfortunately the photo is a bit reddish because of the parasol...

A very nice Persian restaurant with delicious food. There is live music on Saturday. Parking is also not a problem, there are plenty of free parking spaces right in front of the door.

Everything great. Delicious food and nice ambience.

Very good Persian food, very good service and nice ambience. Gladly again.

Posto gradevole e amichevole. Molto interessante l'esperienza di una cucina etnica non molto diffusa come quella persiana. Consigliato.

Nice, fast service. Very, very delicious food. Everyone in the family loved it!

I ordered lamb meat but the chef made veal and his colleague said no, that's lamb meat. I'm a butcher and I know where veal is and where lamb is. That's why one star.

Sehr leckeres Essen, sehr nette Bedienung und schöne Ambiente. Wir sind hin und wieder da. Jedes mal eine ähnliche Erfahrung. Was will man mehr! Viel Erfolg weiterhin.

It's very tasty here. The meat is fragrant from the fire and juicy. I recommend

Friendly and attentive hosts. The food was excellent despite the short wait. Anytime again when we take a trip to Cologne!!!

VERY CLEAN AND VERY FRIENDLY AND VERY GOOD FOOD I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND AND VERY GOOD 👍

You feel comfortable as if it were your own home. Highly recommended.

It's become a regular place for a long time. You always feel very welcome and there is nothing wrong with the food, service and ambience.

The food is good quality and tasty. The portions are also good. The service is friendly and accommodating. Price performance is a bit overpriced. For 2 dishes & drinks it costs €65

Best service and nice staff Best of best in Cologne 👍👍👍👍

Just not everyday. The Persian restaurant is somewhat inconspicuously located in a commercial area. We were warmly welcomed as a medium-sized group with a reservation. The atmosphere seemed warm and friendly. The service was friendly and the food was super fresh and tasted good. Recommended for another visit. It makes sense to reserve in advance. Thank you for the unusual and nice evening

Thank you for everything ! my experience: The food was delicious, very friendly and the atmosphere was pleasant and familiar 💐

Thank you Mehdi Jan for your very good hospitality. The very beautiful and friendly environment of your restaurant makes us drive 700 km from Switzerland for a weekend and come to you. I can boldly say that you are one of the best Iranian restaurants in the whole of Europe. The stylish and happy concert and party that you and your kind wife threw was really great and we had a great time.

Top restaurant. Even though they were full, we still managed to find a spot for us. We had a delicious meal here. We felt very welcome. It was our first time eating Persian food, but we were very spoiled and spoiled by these flavors.

Petfect. Delicious. Everything was the best

Great food, great service. As always, it was a memorable night. Undoubtedly, Mana is the best restaurant in Cologne. Gerne kommen wieder zurück

Diverse flavors, excellent ingredients, carefully prepared. Good selection, also for vegetarians and vegans. Attentive service, great advice

Surprisingly different, in every way. Very friendly service, delicious food, wonderful non-alcoholic cocktails. We ate at Mana for the first time with 5 people on April 26, 2024 and went home happy and inspired. 100% recommendation

That's really fantastic. I recommend to everyone. Perfect to try wowwwwwwwwwwwww

A beautiful location in Cologne and the surrounding area with excellent quality

Dear restaurant team, Unfortunately, we were dissatisfied with our experience. First of all, the quality of the food was very disappointing. The dishes were of inferior quality, unappealing in taste and sometimes even inedible. Only one choice of food for a very large celebration like Nowruz is really disappointing. Furthermore, we were extremely disappointed with the way we were treated as guests. It seemed like we were treated like animals instead of as paying customers who wanted to have a pleasant time at your restaurant. In particular, the statements you made at the entrance that we should be happy to have the chance to take part in the Nowruz celebration hurt us deeply and were completely inappropriate. The service and friendliness of the staff also contributed greatly to our negative impression. We were treated rudely and there was a complete lack of professionalism in the service. This further marred the entire experience and made us feel unwelcome. —> We simply threw €49 into the trash can for the Nowruz festival

Absolutely fantastic time at Mana restaurant, amazing service and delicious food.

Food and the service was really good. The waiter was really nice too. We had a great time. Also a lot of food for the price.

The main course (Soltani) was okay. It took the team 1 hour to serve the food, which I found quite long. The bread was neither homemade nor freshly prepared. The side dishes were in very tiny quantities. The music was European; Iranian music should also be played in an Iranian restaurant. In addition, the restaurant was a bit far away, but there were good parking options.

Very good food and place, and very good service

Again at Mana. You will always be pleasantly surprised again and again. Here you don't feel like a guest but at home. I'm already looking forward to tomorrow evening.

The food was very tasty, very good service, very nice restaurants and live music was excellent Can only recommend

It's very cozy there. The service is very friendly . The food is absolutely amazing. We recommend. 👍👍

Nice place near the highway. Very tasty food, helpful and hospitable staff. Not having an English menu, you invited a female employee who not only did the pricing, but also helped you choose the food. The food exceeded our expectations 🤩

Best Persian restaurant in Cologne!! Very nice atmosphere, very nice waiters and owners. 100000% recommended!! 🙏🏼

The best Persian restaurant in Cologne!!! The location is super cozy and inviting, the staff is super friendly. And the food was a 10/10!!!

Very tasty food, nice restaurant and great waiters! Always my pleasure

Everything is great as always, the quality of the food is excellent and the environment is warm and friendly, I highly recommend it 🙏🏻🌸

Very delicious food, and interesting environment and high-quality service. 😋

Everything was good.food was delicious. Service friendly. Singer (hoseyn) was top.

Very delicious food. Good attitude of the staff .

From the moment we walked into the Persian restaurant we knew we were in for something special. The welcome was warm, the service attentive and the atmosphere inviting – everything pointed to an unforgettable dining experience. We opted for the 4-person grill plate, a decision we didn't regret. The variety and quality of the grilled food was impressive. Every piece of meat was cooked to perfection – crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The side dishes and sauces complemented the meat harmoniously and rounded off the taste experience. Despite our initial enthusiasm and courageous commitment, the portion was so generous that we ultimately couldn't manage everything. Kudos to the kitchen for its generosity and quality! Service played a big role in making our positive experience. The waiters were not only nice and friendly, but also attentive and efficient, which made the visit even more pleasant. Her recommendations were spot on and helped enrich our culinary adventure. Another advantage of this restaurant is the free parking, which is anything but a given these days. This convenience made access easy and ensured our evening ran smoothly from start to finish. In conclusion, this Persian restaurant deserves the warmest recommendation. It combines excellent food, outstanding service and a welcoming atmosphere to create an all-round successful experience. We will certainly come back and are already looking forward to our next visit. If you are looking for authentic Persian cuisine, you should not miss this culinary pearl.

The food is very tasty and the atmosphere is great. Friendly staff Just keep it up 🙏👍👍

We went for Norouz and paid 59 euros, by far the worst Persian restaurant so far.

I don't usually write reviews but this time I feel annoyed. On Saturday, March 26th, 2024, we were at Mana Restaurant with many friends and family members to celebrate Noruz (the Persian New Year). The Mana Restaurant flyer announced a celebration with live music, an appetizer buffet and free choice from the menu. We were there on time and what an experience we had! First of all, the food was not the main menu at Mana Restaurant, it was just a few items listed on a piece of paper that are usually inexpensive. I usually eat barg or soltani (lamb fillet with rice) but these were not available. For some of our friends, the amount of food was also very small compared to normal. Now about the music: The music wasn't bad, but the singer only sang 2-3 songs at a time and then took a 30 minute break before singing 2-3 songs again. In total we received a meal for €59 which is normally available at this restaurant for €20. We are very disappointed overall and now when I see other comments I realize we are not the only ones.

The restaurant charged people 49 euros for the new rouz. Food and non-alcoholic drinks were included. First, around 11:20 p.m., people got dinner with a plate of rice and chicken that had very little rice and a bit of chicken on it. The food looked very terrible and the plate wasn't washed beforehand. You can imagine the food in the earthquake area for people who are hungry so that they can only be taken care of and not starve to death. When I spoke to staff, he said that was the case and took the food away. I drove home hungry. Even coffee cost an additional 4 euros. I don't recommend Maja Restaurant to anyone.

I participated in the program on Nowruz night that was placed inside the showcase hall, I experienced all the unique and most beautiful Nowruz of my life with them, thanks to all the staff of the restaurant and salon, this restaurant and salon offers one of the best services in Cologne. experienced

I wish we had chosen a different location for my birthday. Overall, I was not satisfied for several reasons. After the live music which was quite loud for this small place, the only positive thing I can mention is the quality and taste of the food.

Sorry, but 59 euros for a little rice and meat is extortionate. Afterwards we ate McDonald’s. Food tastes ok.

Unfortunately, Iranians want to get rich immediately! It was terrible service and only one choice of the newrouzfest dish. We had dinner at 11:15 p.m. The food was very unappetizing. There was no salad or side dish with dinner. When I said I wanted to be served nicely, the staff told me that's just the way it is and he can't change it!!! He took the food back and I and other people at the table didn't get dinner. Mana Restaurant collected €49 from everyone. All the staff especially the owner of Mama Restaurant was very, very unfriendly. Me and all my friends will never go to Mana Restaurant again..

We had participated from another city for the Nowruz celebration on 21.03.2024. The music and dancer program was good. But unfortunately the management was very poor and the dinner was served at around 11:00 PM and the quality was very poor and the food was chicken rice and the chickens smelled so bad that my family and I could not eat and we came out hungry at that time. I can say that it was awful.

The food was very delicious. Thank you for your warm welcome

Wow, whenever I'm there I have to think about home, the thoughts draw me to my home. Iranian cuisine is awesome and the atmosphere leaves you in your head.

We were there on the night of Eid, the food was awful and the behavior of the waiters to the extent that we said the plate was dirty, he said that's what it is...🙃🙃🙃

The quality of their food is not good at all. It doesn't taste battered at all. Their chickens are also discolored Instead of saffron. Ice cream and falud are 12 euros. Not recommended

Very friendly staff with delicious food! The live music was also great and created a very happy atmosphere.

We visited Mana restaurant for the first time last night. Private parking lot of the restaurant 👍 😉 We were very satisfied from the moment we arrived and the way the restaurant staff treated us to the delicious food and the cleanliness of the restaurant and the beautiful lights. I myself am happy that finally there is a stylish and clean Iranian restaurant in our city of Cologne I really recommend Mana restaurant to everyone. My only request is that they stay the way they are and don't change We wish the staff and management of Mana restaurant good health and success 💐🫶 Thank you for the beautiful night you made for us

"A real treat! The Persian Restaurant Mana is a hidden gem with a warm atmosphere and an extremely accommodating team. The staff were extremely friendly and eager to make our stay enjoyable. The food was simply delicious - from the tender meat dishes to... the aromatic rice dishes, every dish was a taste experience. The authentic Persian cuisine impressed us with its intense flavors and fresh ingredients. Absolutely recommended for anyone who wants to experience a culinary journey through Iran!"

I go there often. Very good atmosphere, very nice staff, the food is delicious. Highly recommended.

Cozy, tasty and great service. It was a pleasure.

So I recommend everyone to go there, perfect team work, service is great, food is fresh and warm

The food was a disaster, kubideh was dry and spicy, you only tasted pepper!!!!!🤮 there was no butter or somagh!!!! Totally unprofessional! the vegetable side dishes were all rotten and the cherry on top was the onions were both rotten!!!!!! Never again !!!!!!
