Manaia Seafood Boil

Definitely seafood cravings satisfied nBeen here many times and it has always met our expectations. The sauce is superb as always! Reasonable price too!nnRecommendations:nBook ahead of time as tables are limited. Although walk-ins are welcomed but it will depend on the availability.nnDon’t eat them with rice at first — if you want to enjoy it. You may have it halfway through. Oh, don’t drink too nnFeel free to have add-ons or extras. Whichever you prefer. Prices are reasonable.nnYou can also do takeaways. Good for parties and/or special occasions—- whole fam would enjoy for sure…

We ordered the Large Platter to share among four adults, and the portion size was just right.nThe food was absolutely delicious! We didn’t have to wait long for the food to be served, which was a big plus. nThe Mango Otai is a must have! For $7 it’s good value for money.nThe staff were friendly and super helpful throughout our visit. Although it got a bit messy with sauce splashing everywhere, it added to the fun and made for a unique dining experience.nnWe’ll definitely recommend this place to others and look forward to coming back again!

Second time ordering from Manaia and it’s great. They put a generous amount of sauce to cover everything.nnThe potato was boiled to perfection, very soft. The corn tasted fresh not like the frozen ones.nnSome mussel beards were still intact, you have to remove it yourself.nnThe lobster tail was yummm.nnWill definitely order again.

Amazing experience! We were a group of 4 and ordered the large platter with added half-cut crabs. The sauce was the highlight of the dish, and all the seafood was great quality. The crab was definitely the best . We also ordered two rice bowls and mixed them with all the sauce—so yummy! Highly recommended.

I'll preface by saying we are a whanau of divers off the beach and boat.nnMania Seafood was a place high on our list we travelled from BOP.nnThe kai, the mussels plump and juicy, potato, egg, corn deeeeelicious in the sauce. The sauce is mildly spicy its ok was hoping for the classic butter sauce. The crab and prawns i suspect were old a few were a wee bit mushy and hard to peel for that reason. I really did miss the classic salty kai moana taste.nnWe brought the $75 pack for 2 people which was too much and thats saying something when you have a partner that'll eat his plate clean.nnI would recommend the experience to everyone .. treat yourself. Weekend parking was great. I'd recommend booking also pretty cool to see they have takeaway packsnnBig fan of Tipene Funeral whananu IYKYK
