Manta Restaurant & Bar

Manta restaurant is such beautiful restaurant. It is furnished with the winds blowing across the outdoor dining area of this Woolloomooloo wharf. The space inside has a slightly contrasting but equally engaging atmosphere with a warmer feel and more intimate ambiance. No matter which one you choose, they are both spacious.

The food at Manta is just one deliciousness after another.

This is in the glam Cowper Wharf area. Parking can be tricky, depending on day and time. The food and service are lovely, and the atmosphere can't be beaten. I had barramundi, can't fault it. Destination dining.

Wow, love this restaurant! It's rare to find a combination of superb, friendly service...ambiance AND sensational food. Having just arrived in Sydney from New York this was my first time and I will definitely be back time and again. The cute barman created a cocktail specially for me and the sommelier Lyndon guided us through the extensive wine list. There really is nothing better than sitting on the couch sipping something fabulous, watching the passing parade and the boats gently swaying. I will be back again very soon!

Sat outside which was lovely and romantic with fantastic views of the water and surroundings. Food was expensive but we expected that and didn't mind as we loved it. Really tasty and amazing customer service.
