On
a
Sunday,
our
family
dined
at
Manuella
restaurant,
renowned
for
its
seafood
offerings
but
also
featuring
BBQ
and
raw
meat
selections.
Upon
arrival,
we
were
warmly
welcomed
by
the
staff
and
the
owner,
and
they
ensured
we
had
a
pleasant
seat
with
a
beachfront
view.
This
restaurant
is
conveniently
situated
on
the
main
road
in
Jounieh,
though
its
interior
is
somewhat
dated
and
could
benefit
from
modernization.
The
menu
boasted
a
straightforward
Lebanese
food
selection
along
with
a
diverse
range
of
fish
dishes.
While
the
food
arrived
promptly
and
was
both
delicious
and
unique
by
its
generosity,
it
didn't
particularly
stand
out
in
terms
of
exceptional
flavor.
The
service
was
impeccable,
marked
by
professionalism
and
efficiency.
The
attentive
waitstaff
consistently
ensured
our
glasses
were
filled
and
our
culinary
needs
were
met.
For
our
party
of
six
adults,
we
ordered
a
substantial
meal
that
included
6
AJAJ
fish
(2
kgs),
2
servings
of
hummus,
1
tabouleh,
1
Fattoush,
pastries,
octopus
provincial,
calamari,
and
although
we
had
a
desire
for
the
Bizri
fish,
it
regrettably
wasn't
available
that
day.
We
complemented
our
meal
with
Arak.
Post-meal,
the
restaurant
pleasantly
offered
us
complimentary
fruits,
accompanied
by
coffee
and
Turkish
sweets.
The
final
bill
tallied
up
to
$211,
translating
to
around
$35
per
person,
which
we
found
to
be
a
reasonable
and
fair
price
for
the
experience.
Manuella
is
a
family-friendly
establishment,
complete
with
a
playground
for
children
and
clean
restrooms
equipped
with
dedicated
changing
trays
for
babies.
