About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
  • Romantic
By Renowned Mexican Chef, Enrique Olvera, Manta is the culinary centerpiece of The Cape, A Thompson Hotel. With an intriguing double meaning, the manta ray symbolizes the kitchen"s focus on seafood, while manta, the Spanish word for blanket, conveys the chef's emphasis on comfort. Acknowledge by the New York Times for his "way of confirming and subverting expectations of Mexican food at the same time," Olvera has drawn inspiration from the izakaya tradition to introduce a pan-Pacific concept of Mexican cuisine. The intimate, richly textured space features a dramatic exhibition kitchen and a curated beverage menu focused on mezcals, tequilas and sakes.

Would go back in a heartbeat to try the tasting menu. We loved our orange wine and the tuna was our favorite dish’s but everything was incredible- we definitely over ordered. Service and views were also impeccable.

We did the Chef's tasting menu and were blown away - seriously in tears, savoring each interesting fusion of flavors. It was a generous amount of food, and when all was said and done, we had about 15 dishes. We always splurge on one epic dinner on each trip, and I can not recommend this restaurant enough. Our server, Sara, was amazing and guided us through the journey of each dish. Be sure to carve out a moment before dinner to have a cocktail at the rooftop bar. The views are insane, and the drinks are innovative and delicious.
