The best staff & atmosphere we have ever had the pleasure of. Ate dinner there 2 nights in a row because it was that good. Made us feel like we were regulars & had been coming there for years.
First time here. It was very good. Similar but different from White Manna, with two Ns, in Hackensack which is indeed a small step above.
Must try at least once because it is the definition of a luxurious patty encrested on top of two buns . Come here on a weekday because it is the least busiest. They are so friendly .
Definitely go with a double as opposed to a single. As many as you can possibly handle.
Great place to stumble to in the middle of the night. Burgers and Hot Dogs . All to go after a certain time on weekends though. Still cool.
Same quality & speedy service every single time. The 3 cheeseburger special add bacon for under 10 bucks? You cant beat it!
I know the burgers are a jersey thing, but they’re not that great and honestly, I find White Castle to have a better flavor for mini burgers . Does the job and not horrible, but by no means amazing.
The White Mana — not to be confused with the White Manna in Hackensack , although both are known for their slider-like burgers — is one of the state 's iconic diners.
NJ.com’s Genovese: flying saucer-shaped White Mana, said to have originally been at ‘39 NY World ’s Fair , is essential Jers food experience. sliders , cooked on a tiny grill, exude fatty greasy goodness
Great historic treasure in Jersey City! The round grill section was at the 1939 NY world’s Fair !
Delicious burgers . The swindle is their special - 4 burgers and an order of fries for less than 10 bucks - great for 2 people.
The best greaser sliders in northern jersey. The place leaves you feeling like it will be crap but the burgers are a guilty pleasure. If you can brave the traffic, stop in and grab a bag of sliders
All beef burgers sauteed with onions and processed American cheese all smushed between two potato buns . I eat about six at one seating. Food is biblical. -Alex Reznik, Top Chef
The milkshakes are legitimately traditional and on point. The burgers are not that exceptional
Small, no frills place that serves only tiny burgers (basically sliders ) and other typical diner dishes such as fries and milkshakes . Food is slow to prepare but the chefs/servers are very friendly .
The three cheeseburger special (with fries and a drink) is perfect, but if you can, split the fries with a friend.
cheap and delicious sliders , fries , and shakes
Get the burgers , fries and a shake .
Great time capsule, fantastic burgers and fries !
Great little burgers and careful the fries are hotttt!
Great little burgers and be careful the fries are ????
Quick, greasy, and delicious. The perfect spot to cure your hangover.
I dont eat meat, but the disco fries and the grilled cheese sandwich were great. And the prices! 2.75 for a grilled cheese ! Yeah! !
Sliders on potato buns open late . An NJ specialty.
Simple and delicious!
I love their double cheeseburgers (with onions ) & fries ! <3 YUMMY IN MY TUMMY!
2 bacon cheese , 2 cheese , cherry coke and a small vanilla shake . Sinful.
Small quick and satisfying
Burgers are bae
Get at least 2-3 burgers and a grape drink.. Crispy fries are great for sharing. More info via the link. Read more
Great burger on your way home from a night out. Helps soak up the drinks.
Not quite as good as its nothing special sibling in Hackensack . More nostalgic than good, but sometimes that's enough. Just don't stray from sliders and fries .
Don't even bother coming to this sink hole if a restaurant . The real White Manna is in Hackensack , where slider quality is far superior.
Watch your burger , found a long string of hair and lost my appetite!
Best cup o' joe around
Try it for yourself
The birds chirp here even at 3 AM.
They do NOT accept anything except cash so make sure to have some on you!
Great late night junk!

Tastes like White Castle and the fries aren't that good.
