I visited recently and ordered the fresh sliced beef short ribs along with the beef Soon Dooboo Jjigae, and both dishes were extremely satisfying. The fresh sliced beef short ribs were high quality, well-marbled, and full of rich flavor. The meat cooked quickly and stayed tender and juicy, making every bite feel indulgent without being overwhelming. You can really taste the freshness and care in the cut, which makes a big difference. The beef Soon Dooboo Jjigae was exactly what you want from a classic Korean stew—deeply flavorful, spicy, and comforting. The broth was robust and savory, with a nice kick of heat that wasn’t overpowering. The soft tofu was silky and absorbed all the flavors beautifully, while the beef added heartiness to the dish. Served bubbling hot, it was perfect alongside a bowl of rice. Service was friendly and efficient, and the overall atmosphere was casual and welcoming.
The food here is amazing! We tried the 순두부 (Soft Tofu Stew), Beef BBQ, 칼비 Kalbi, and 삐비밤 Bibimbap. The portions aren’t as huge as Texas-sized meals, but they’re definitely filling. The Beef BBQ has a slightly sweet flavor, and the Kalbi were incredibly tender. The Bibimbap was packed with fresh vegetables, making it really hearty and satisfying. The soft tofu stew was comforting and full of flavor. The service was excellent too…. when I seemed unsure about how to mix the Bibimbap, the staff kindly came over to show me how. They were super friendly and made the experience even better. I’d definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for delicious and satisfying food~
It can be a great option to have a taste of Korea that you miss. It's quite similar to what I used to eat in Korea. The huge variety of menus show how much experience this place has.
This is a mom and pop restaurant that has authentic Korean flavors. I came here for dinner after landing from the airport on a weekday evening. There was no wait and I was seated immediately. While the service may have been a little delayed, given the limited staffing, I did not have any complaints. I ordered the Kalbi set with t Kimchi jiggae. There were many bonchon provided and I enjoyed every bit of the meal. The kimchi jjiggae had big chunks of pork and the kimchi was ripe. Even the Kalbi was seasoned well. The portions were good. The area surrounding the location may seem a little off but do not be dissuaded from coming here. I highly recommend Korean food at this restaurant if you are in Austin!
Manna Korean Restaurant offers solid Korean fare with a welcoming atmosphere. We had the spicy pork and beef bulgogi—both were flavorful, though I personally prefer them served on a sizzling hot plate. The seafood pancake was decent but could use more seafood. The highlight of our visit was the incredibly friendly service from our server, who made the experience even better. Notably, there were many Korean diners here, which is always a good sign of authenticity. Overall, a good spot for Korean food, but a few small tweaks would make it even better!
