About Mana Modern Chinese

Mana Modern Chinese is where tradition meets a new generation. We take the bold, comforting flavors and rework them with modern techniques, clean presentation, and a fresh point of view, creating food that feels both familiar and entirely new.

Mana Modern Chinese is a chinese restaurant in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It is listed at 719 N 2nd St, Philadelphia, PA 19123, which places it among the local businesses of Philadelphia that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as asian restaurant, dim sum restaurant, restaurant, so it may cover more than the name suggests.

In cities with a Chinatown, weekend mornings bring dim sum carts or order sheets, and lines form early at the most popular spots in Philadelphia; walk-ins are standard and reservations are uncommon outside large banquet restaurants. Regional labels matter: Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese and Taiwanese kitchens cook very differently, so a restaurant's stated region is a better guide to the food than the word "Chinese" alone. Some smaller restaurants in Pennsylvania are BYOB with no corkage fee; call ahead to confirm. A tip of 15-20% is customary for table service but not expected at counter-order takeout. Spice level, MSG and allergen questions are normal to ask before ordering, and most kitchens are happy to leave an ingredient out or tone down the heat if you mention it when ordering rather than after the food arrives.

The business lists hours on 7 days of the week. Typical hours are 11:30 am–10 pm. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (215) 933-0536. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, manamodern.com.

On Google it holds a rating of 4.9 out of 5 from 204 reviews, which is a strong result for a chinese restaurant in Philadelphia and suggests consistent service.

Philadelphia is in Pennsylvania, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. Traffic in Philadelphia peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then. Addresses read from the street number up to the city, state abbreviation and five-digit ZIP code; the map link on this page shows the exact spot.

I will def be back. The male waiter I had knew next to not much on the menu, he had to keep going back to the waitress to ask what was in some dishes and failed to mention that rice comes with your meal but that’s okay!! She was great though and super knowledgeable haha. Otherwise the food is actually incredible the atmosphere is clean and really cute. They had a really great variety, vegans, foodies, picky eaters, and meat lovers will all enjoy this place the same. The duck is so juicy and tender, the reviews did not lie on this one. It’s a must try. That curry sauce is gonna live rent free in my head for months to come. Genuinely I think my new favorite Chinese place…. I don’t even know who could compare (maybe Chinese version of tuna bar?) Can’t believe that it’s not absolutely packed up every night with 183 nearly 5 star reviews.

I came with a group of 5 and it was such an amazing experience. This was hands down one of the best meals I’ve ever had, I’ve been thinking about it ever since 🤣 We got an assortment of food options we shared amongst the five of us, and we tried one of each of their dessert options. Everything was so delicious! The service was great and the place is so beautiful inside. Truly a 10/10 place I would recommend to everyone.

I’m not sure if going an hour before closing was the factor in this situation. But the overall experience wasn’t great I ordered kung pao chicken, which came out cold and with very little chicken. It was mostly peppers and onions, which were undercooked and extra crunchy. Then from 10pm until 10:20pm, I’m trying to grab a waiter to order tea. When the tea comes out it is ice cold. But it was in a kettle. And it didn’t seem like the tea even stepped because it was so cold. The lotus bites and ember wontons were excellent though. The dining area was very nice and clean. I’m not sure I would come back here again.

Believe it or not, I have eaten here 10+ times! It's just that good! The ambiance is perfect for a date night with a little light at the table to set the mood. Before coming to MANA, remember to stop by a store to grab a drink because they are BYOB!! The service is impeccable and all the servers are attentive and helpful when guiding us through the menu. (There are some pictures that I'm missing because we just wanted to dive straight in). Here are some dishes you MUST TRY! APPETIZERS ⭐️ Mapo Tofummus ⭐️ Crab Rangoon Roll Up ⭐️ Chili Kissed Burrata ⭐️ Forbidden Ribs ENTREES ⭐️ Black Truffle Mushroom Beef ⭐️ Lychee Infused Curry Duck DESSERT ⭐️ Custard Bloom MANA is definitely a hidden gem in NoLibs and I can't wait to go back!

Every aspect of my experience at this now spot was absolutely 5-star. The service was attentive from start to finish, the atmosphere was so relaxing yet stylish and modern, and the presentation of each dish was truly beautiful. Most importantly, the food was outstanding. Every bite was full of flavor and clearly made with care. I had a particularly wonderful experience with our server, Julia, who went above and beyond to make the evening special. This will surely become a regular spot for me, as I’ll need to try everything on the menu!
