Manna Restaurant

Everything we had was good. The kids Pancake with strawberries was on point. Great Value. Place is clean not busy. Prices and food are just what everyone said awesome. Owner ran to store while we were here to get more potatoes so we know they are made from scratch. We will return for sure.

The place is humble (my favorite) breakfast is delicious. Corned beef and hash and breakfast special. We will be back for more. The pricing it so reasonable.

awesome old fashioned American diner! I had the breakfast special for $ 4 (2 eggs, 2 pancakes and 2 slices of bacon) and it was phenomenal quality and value given the price. Hard working mom&pop style shop.
they also have Chinese food here but we didn’t get a chance to try since we were just here for breakfast!

Service is decent. food is decent. Just stay away from windows. Home for the flies.

Finally decided to give this place a try today for breakfast. I’d prefer to go to Denny’s next time. Nothing special and the food was ok.

Simple good. The store front is nothing special. Looks like a diner and it’s weird that they serve Chinese food But don’t discount the food. It’s great breakfast food waaay better than Denny’s. AND the have an A rating. I would definitely come back.

This place is fantastic. Friendly service, big portions, and good food for a low price. The staff is awesome!

Ok I know it sounds odd to have a restaurant serving traditional American breakfast and Chinese fast food lunch but hear me out!
Breakfast — for $ 3.99 you can get 2 eggs, 2 bacon slices or sausages, and 2 pancakes or toast or English muffins, what a DEAL! And the food quality? GOOD! I felt like I was getting a Denny’s breakfast for half the price. Coffee is nice and medium bold with plenty of refills if you like that. Lots of regulars here in the morning so it’s a good sign. They all seem to have a rapport with the owner and his employee server as if they’ve been coming here for years.
Lunch — I used to walk here at least once a week when I was working at a nearby engineering company for a quick no fuss Chinese lunch. They give you a lot for what you pay for and follow up service at your table is nice considering it’s a fast food style lunch. I usually get beef and broccoli with chow mein and fried rice or kungpao chicken.
What a neat lil mom and pop restaurant in Chula! Don’t come here expecting all the bells and whistles and fancy décor. It’s a simple/​clean joint right next to a gas station with a friendly owner.

It was my first time going to this place and I was very satisfied with the food, service, cleanliness, everything. The food is really tasty and inexpensive and the service is quick. I will be returning.

Great cheap breakfast! Just moved into the area and so happy to find a basic breakfast place. Because sometimes you just want bacon and eggs!

Eggs were cooked perfectly. 3 egg ham and cheese omelet. Hash browns English muffin and coffee for under 10 $

The odd combo of chinese food and traditional breakfast made me hesitant to try out Manna Restuarant. The inside was also kind of bizarre, with traditional café booths you would find in a café and then photos of the menu items like Chinese places have. But when you get down to what matters– the service was good, food was good, and prices were very reasonable. We will go back… Maybe even for Chinese?

Great place to eat! I go here a couple times a week. The breakfast is my favorite and the prices are great.

Very nice food and awesome flavor. The presentation of the food is appealing. Kid you want Chinese food combo B is a nice plate and amount.
The waiter is very attentive and responsible. The cook is A Christian guy and has an amazing taste.

Finally a place with decent breakfast in the hood… well I finally found it rather, it’s been there a while. The girl and I stumbled on it when we were checking places out in Chula Vista, we were lazies and didn’t want to drive far.
Breakfast is cheap and tasty, make sure you get the sausage patties. I dislike all other sausage but I will order it here. Basic breakfast, eggs, hash browns, sausage and toast are my go to. I can’t really tell you about anything besides breakfast because that’s why we go.
The staff there is always friendly and keeps my coffee and water cup full. Mostly all booth seating is fun, I love sitting in booths. The place is never too full which makes me happy, I’m not a fan of waiting. The parking lot can be a little tricky but besides that I love this place!

Owner doesn’t want people with disabilities to eat in his restaurant. Watched when he kicked two separate groups out of the restaurant at different times on 12÷1÷14
SHAME ON YOU

Great cheap breakfast with generous portions at a hole in the wall place. Found this place through Unilocal

Was staying in Chula Vista and used Unilocal to find a place within walking distance of our hotel for a good American breakfast.
Note this place is a little hard to find. Both my son and daughter passed by in their cars missing it. Look for the gas pumps out front from the business in the same plaza. It is a hole in the wall.
Pluses:
1. Very good breakfast food. All 5 of us enjoyed our meals.
2. Very inexpensive, and I mean inexpensive.
3. Large portions
4. Nice friendly service. Manager/​owner (?) is very friendly.
5. Lots of room.
6. Nice homey diner feel.
Minuses:
1. Flies were annoying. The doors were open enjoying the great San Diego weather, but there were no fans keeping the flies out.
If it wasn’t for the flies, I would definitely give it a 5 star rating.
Will come back again for sure.

Ahh!!! What to say what to say.
Definitely a hole in the wall. Without Unilocal,I would not have been able to find it.
They are located next to a gas station.
I purchased an omelette, and for $ 6-​$ 7 it came with potatoes, avocado, and pancakes.
They were opened early — while I was eating my meal, I ALMOST ordered another.
it was delicious. service was normal.
i had a good experience. Thank you Unilocal users for your experiences!

Open early on. Saturday morning my boy friend and I ordered an omelette that came with a side of hash browns and pancakes, enough for two at a great price! Food was so delish I almost went for seconds! The price was right on just about everything I read and he portions were very good as well. The lady who serviced us was very friendly and nice.
Dont let the name outside fool you, this is a place to go to grab some breakfast!
