Great food served nicely - Edit
The food taste amazing, and are arranged really nicely. The staff are nice, and the restaurant in general have a great decor with many plants. Only minor downside is the open kitchen, which sometimes makes some noise.
Read moreGreat variety in the menu, with opportunity to taste new dishes.

Creative Fusion! - Edit
Delicious vegan fusion between Afghan, Indian and Asian food. All dishes we ate were perfect; neither spicey nor bland. Staff is friendly and location is perfect (parkings available nearby and accessible by city bus). Suggest to make reservation in advance.

Fantastiskt gott - Edit
Vi tog några mellanrätter och en efterrätt. Otroligt gott, min man som inte är vegan gav omdömet veganpropaganda, så inte bara för veganer. Goda naturviner och drinkar. Mysig miljö och bra service. Bäst att boka bord i förväg.

So friggin' delicous! - Edit
This is a very popular place, so make sure you book a reservation. They have take-away, but the food is most enjoyable at the restaurant.
Read moreThe taste experiences and the different food textures are amazing and I enjoyed it every second. The only warning I have is that eating here is addicting, plus you won't be the most social of the bunch as you'll be busy enjoying all the taste sensations going on in your mouth.
Pros: Delicous and beautiful quality food, Lovely interior and atmosphere, Professional staff

Creative, delicious small plates - Edit
Manto bring together all kinds of different techniques and ingredients, with a focus on Afghan cooking, to create some truly wonderful dishes. The Kado, a roasted pumpkin dish, is amazing in particular; the roasted pumpkin, spiced yogurt sauce, and homemade bread come together perfectly. The Afghan roses desert is one of the best deserts I’ve had in a long time, rich but also delicate and fresh.
Read moreThe chickpea taco was a little off in flavor balance, leaning to much on the acidic side, but overall still a creative and tasty dish.
The service and atmosphere are also lovely. All in all, my new favorite vegan location in Malmö.

A little boring - Edit
A big disappointed with my meal, which tasted pretty bland. The vegan chicken was not tasty and the texture a bit boring. The rice was unsalted. The whole dish was unsalted I think.
Read moreThe spout salad was nice; nice dressing, which i used in my meal to lift up the taste.
Pros: Nice place, Flexible: they let me squeeze in/fully booked
Cons: Salt please, Not great service, waiter didnt check the tabl

It was ok - Edit
Clean, kind waitress, high prices, good flavor,( yeah the soup was great), the man in the attention point approached us to ask how was the food what is really appreciated, but it surprised me how serious he was, I would say that he was even upset, what i feel like bad since to work with customers you must be at least a bit smily the attention its more important than the food quality for me. Oh yes, its better to make a reservation if you plan to go, we didn't but the waitress tried her best to see if all was ok and if they could have us there.

Everything was carefully designed and meticulously chosen. From the tableware, furniture, decorations and the interior design. Food wise, what an amazing experience! Taste, quality and value were all there. Unfortunately somehow I didn't manage to take pictures.

Good food, horrible service - Edit
We decided to celebrate our anniversary at Manto. We ordered a drink that sounded lovely, but turned out to be kind of bad (to say the least!)
Read moreWe requested another drink and told the waitress that we weren’t happy with it, to which they replied, they would charge us with the bad drink regardless.
In generel the waitresses’ attitudes were very NOT welcoming, even before the drink issue. The whole anniversary dinner was very uncomfortable and we felt like a chore from the moment we entered the door.
We give 2 stars purely for the good food.
Pros: Food
Cons: Service, The attitude of the waitresses

Hi. I’m Elsa and I’m the bar manager at Manto. I’m sorry you felt mistreated, but it was not a comfortable situation for us either.
Read moreWe take pride in what we do and we have many years of experience in drinks and food. I have been working in the bar for 10+ years.
When a guest complains on the all the prices, complains that a drink is too bitter when it’s a gin&tonic (that is how it’s supposed to be) and asks multiple waitresses to remove a perfectly fine drink from the bill, we get very frustrated. We did not feel apreciated or respected. This drink is very popular and all other guests love it. But gin&tonic is not for everyone, we get that. We also know how a gin&tonic is supposed to taste.
We do not give discounts because of personal preference, as we told you during your visit. That i not bad service, that is just being fair ans respectful to the craft.
You have the right to your opinion, and you might think we gave you bad service. But sometimes the service is reflected depending on how the guests are treating the staff aswell. Something to think about in the future. Have a nice summer! 🌸

Absolutely delicious food. For three people we ordered two sides and four medium size dishes to share and we were all stuffed. Very good value. Wish I would have saved some room for dessert because they looked delicious too.

Friendly and helpful staff. The menu gives lots of options but I recommend to combine at least three or four of the alternatives for a full experience. A bit pricy but worth it!
