Review by Mary Parker

August 30, 2024

The Mantu is a hidden gem in Richmond that truly shines with its modern take on Afghan cuisine! 🌟 The cozy atmosphere paired with live music creates a unique dining experience. I tried the Mantus and Bolani, and both were bursting with flavor!

The options for health-conscious diners are impressive, and I appreciated the selection of organic dishes. The outdoor seating was perfect for a casual lunch with friends.

Service was friendly, and I loved the relaxing vibe. Just remember to make a reservation - it gets popular for a reason! Can't wait to return for more... 🍽️
