Having a tiring week? Sounds like you need to spend some quality time with sipping some red wine to unwind. You’re in luck because the Foodbuzz team is here with Le Manolis, a fancy and romantic French-style bar.

What's even more special is that this bar was renovated from a colonial building. The location of Le Manolis couldn’t be easier to find! Right around the riverside, just the perfect spot to hangout in the evening.

Le Manolis has an elegant design that makes you feel like you’re in Paris right when you get to the front door! The interior has a vintage, Art Deco-influenced style with glass chandeliers, exposed brick walls, and a tiled bar setup.

The ambiance is very romantic and peaceful which is perfect for those looking to unwind with friends after a long day of work or to have a romantic dinner date with your partners.

For the seating, you can even sit right by the wine bar which features their huge selection of liquor bottles on display. Seems like the perfect background and lighting for your photos! You can also sit down at a table in their comfortable wicker chairs and enjoy their Tango performance or live music performance.

The restaurant wouldn’t leave us waiting in hunger because once we were seated, the wait staff immediately brought out a basket of complimentary bread with butter.

The serving staff were also very friendly and professional as they walked us through the menus. If you’re there in a group, you can order 2-3 Tapas which are small portion dishes best for sharing like their grilled octopus in lemon butter sauce that is savoury from the octopus meat, sour from the lemon, sweet from the cherry tomatoes, and slightly bitter from the rocket salad. Another Tapas dish is shrimp in olive oil. You can eat it by dipping a piece of bread into the sauce, and then putting some shrimp on top. 

You should also try their Pacific Oysters that come with lemon slices and a special sauce of red wine vinegar. 

They specially used Australian beef for their Bavette Steak which came with French Fries and a tangy shallot sauce that pairs perfectly with the steak. 

You can also try their Charcuterie Board which is available in 2 sizes. The big one includes 4 cold cuts, 3 types of cheese, fig jam, and pickles. The taste is elevated if you eat them together!

What Le Manolis’s regulars keep on coming back for is their special variety of alcoholic drinks. We advised you not to miss their signature cocktails! What makes the Captain Manolis unique is that it is topped with a torched slice of lemon that gives the drink an enchanting aroma. The Grinch has a sweet and sour taste that keeps you wanting more. You can also order some top-notch red wine that the restaurant keeps in its quality wine cellar as well! 

If you’re looking for a new place to meet up with friends or a special someone, you can come to Le Manolis where you will get a truly unforgettable experience.
