Cheescake! 😋

Tastiest cheesecake and uniquely flavoured guava ice cream.

The lunch set was fresh and good, and the matcha latte and soy-milk coffee were refreshing.

Friendly staff and great ambience.

Pros: Cheesecake, Service , Location

Divine

I had the set meal (in fact, I have no idea whether anything else was on offer; I walked in, sat down and they brought me a meal). It was so wonderful - fresh, delicous, vegan food. I cannot be certain what I was eating - there was of course rice and miso soup, and a pickle of some sort, and what may have been tempura seitan - in addition to something much like a fish cake but much more delicious (and of course not containing fishies!), what may have been a vegan version of chanpuru, some delicately fried leaves... See the photo.

The atmosphere was quiet and relaxed, the people friendly, and everything just right. Highly, highly recommended.

Food is great, possible waiting time

The ambient is 10/10, food is good, balanced, they have daily lunch menu and lovely desserts. The place has a small number of tables so in lunchtime might get crowded. We waited 30-40 minutes to get a table and in the meantime a lot of people came and turned around.

Pros: Food is great, Ambient is natural , Staff very kind

Cons: Not enough tables, Not the best English

Light & friendly vibe

I came at lunch so there was only one dish to choose, which was very tasty. The staff are incredibly friendly and the atmosphere is light. Nice places to sit for both groups and solo travelers. I also bought 2 pieces of cake to bring home after the meal. Highly recommend!

Friendly cafe with queer vibes

We tried the tiramisu and the chocolate cake. It was not as good as we expected, but the place is friendly and it seemed like a queer space: Several queer people were hanging, and there were posters for a lgbtiq/equal marriage exhibition/event (this weekend btw)

ティラミス最高!

ティータイムに伺いました。
ティラミスがとても美味しいと聞いて行ったのですが、扉を開けると魅惑の焼き菓子がとってもたくさんで目移りしちゃいます!!
悩みながらも米粉スコーンのメープルチョコとティラミスを選びました。

先払いをして、席について料理を待ちます。
お店の雰囲気がとても落ち着いており、座った座敷でまったり。
スコーンもティラミスが盛り付けられて届くのですが、それもまた綺麗に盛り付けられていて素敵!
オーツミルクのチャイも香りがよく、しっかりスパイスも効いていて美味しかったです!

ティラミスは普通のものと変わりない….いや、植物性のさっぱりとしたなかにやさしい甘さが入ってむしろ食べやすく、パクパクいっちゃう最高のティラミスでした!
他にも食べたい、飲みたいものがたくさんなので、また行きたいと思っています!

愛知県民なので、来沖したらすぐに食べに行きます!
ご馳走様でした!

Pros: まったりとした空間, 豊富なスイーツの種類, ティラミスが美味しい

Delicious!

I ordered the lunch set and tiramisu as a dessert. Seriously, this was the BEST tiramisu I've ever eaten!
I also ordered a lemon cheesecake to take away, which was also very tasty.

Nice but pricy

I stopped by Mana to pick up some dessert to go. I got the tiramisu and soy cheesecake. They were really tasty, but quite small and a bit too pricy. I am looking forward to going back to Okinawa again and trying their lunch too.

Cozy restaurant

I went here a couple of times and got the lunch set. It tasted great and was relatively inexpensive. The staff were really helpful and friendly and the atmosphere was great. One of the better vegan places in Naha.

Pros: Tasty food, Inexpensive , Friendly staff

Delicious! but a bit expensive

Both the soy and oat chai latte were tasty and flavourful. The tiramisu, soy cheesecake and soy chocolate cake were sooo delicious. Unfortunately the slices were very small and for these sizes really expensive in my opinion.
Cash only!

Pros: Tasty, Nice atmosphere , Friendly Staff

Cons: Expensive, Cash only

Great food and snacks

We had Hayashi rice plate for lunch and a piece of chocolate cake for dessert. In addition, we decided to take home three cookies and a scone because the food and dessert were both so good.
They do only one menu for lunch for each day. So the choice for you are to take the lunch, or to take the lunch and the dessert. The lunch was not big, but was enough for me to get satisfied.
Great atmosphere. Woody. There were some books about veganism and some cute picture books.

Pros: Great cookies and cakes, Great lunch , Woody atmosphere

Cons: The lunch might be a little small

Amazing Japanese style vegan restaurant in Okinawa.

100% recommended.
This vegan restaurant offers Japanese style food. They have a closed lunch set, and a few options for desserts and drinks.
The lunch set was amazing, very filling and super flavorful. All ingredients are organic and from Okinawa.
I tried the vegan cheesecake and I loved it. It’s a baked style cheesecake, a tiny portion Japanese style, but really tasty.
The place has a very nice vintage natural aesthetic, and the surroundings are filled with vintage shops, second closed and trendy clothing.

expensive and limited

I'm sure the food is good but coming here at 2pm they said they had finished serving lunch for the day and only had 500¥ coffee available.

Very satisfied

My third visit. Among overall destruction of the vegan social life in Japan this restaurant stands out as the only vegan place worth visiting in Naha. Highly recommend. Thanks a lot and keep that way!

Excellent lunch set. As other said made with love. No problem with foreigners, they speak good English. Prices moderate at least for me. Pity they work only until 3pm. Otherwise I would be visiting them every day for dinner.

Pros: Relatively spacious for a vegan cafe in Japan.

Cons: Working hours too limited.

Made with love - vegan and organic

No doubt that all the food at Mana is made with love. Love for food, love for umami, love for the earth. I had the curry set and a piece of organic cake. When they bring the plate they explain to you each one of the parts of the set and, although it looks very simple, every part has its unique rich flavour. I think it is a must if you go to Naha. Not just for the tasty food but for the wonderful enviroment that the owners create.

Pros: vegan organic ingredients, nice portions, relaxing and friendly enviroment

5/5! Fantastic!

Wholesome, delicious, modern Japanese food cafe with a cool cozy interior. Lovely staff! I visited back in October 2019 and loved it - especially the spice in the Dahl curry, tempura pumpkin pieces and the lemon cheesecake.. to die for!!

Do yourselves a favor if you’re in Naha and go! You won’t be disappointed!

Little Gem in Naha, Okinawa

Read more in this vegan Okinawa guide: https://itravelforveganfood.com/vegan-okinawa-guide/

This cafe is a gem. Located in one of the small alleyways near Kokusai Dori shopping street, Mana is a beautiful and cosy place serving all vegan and all delicious food.

You will be greeted by the rustic, homey decor with wooden tables and chairs. The tablewares also match the atmosphere perfectly. The staff is friendly and can speak some English.

They have a rather small menu. You can find vegan plates with many small dishes, curry, desserts and drinks. Despite the small menu, the quality is amazing.

The dal curry I tried comes with a bowl of flavorful curry with legumes and cut veggies. The rice plate has three small sides. On that day, they were soy chicken, cooked veggies and salad. There’s also a tempura veggie on the side. For dessert, don’t miss the lemon cheesecake. It uses local tofu and organic lemon.

Keep in mind that they only opens at lunch time Thursday to Sunday.

A very nice and calm place

The food was really delicious, we got a daily special plate with a lot of good stuff and it was a satisfying meal.
Nice staff who kept refilling our water glasses.
They also had freshly baked cookies when we entered and they were all great(my favourite was the coconut one)!
The desserts are nice, but the cookies are out of this world:)

Pros: Nice staff, Nicely prepared food, Very instagramable
