Mana means supernatural power and you may feel you have it after you eat at Mana Food Bar. No meat or faux meat, just simple colorful plates of raw or slightly cooked veggies full of flavor in a Zen wood environment. Raw means healthy but doesn't mean boring, thus the variety of choices such as pumpkin ravioli, mushroom sauté, or the hummus plate. They also serve red/white wines, beer, and of course sake cocktails.
