Mannaja Charcoal Grilled House
923 Block 28, Creative & Start Up Village, จุฬา ซอย 8, Khwaeng Wang Mai, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330
Mannaja earns its 4.9 rating by doing one thing exceptionally well: stacking a Korean-style charcoal BBQ buffet with cuts that rival standalone wagyu restaurants. Three pricing tiers let groups calibrate to their budget, from a pork-and-chicken entry level up to Tajima Wagyu Marbled MBS 4-5. Order the Korean-style soy-marinated shrimp, the braised eggs, and tteokbokki as table anchors. Cash only on the bill.
Mannaja Charcoal Grilled House operates out of Block 28, the creative and startup village complex on Chula Soi 8 in Wang Mai, Pathum Wan, a short walk from Samyan MRT. The setting is one of Bangkok's more characterful dining addresses: a mixed-use development that pairs independent restaurants with co-working spaces, keeping the atmosphere lively across lunch and dinner.
The format is all-you-can-eat Korean-style charcoal BBQ with a 90-minute session per table. Three buffet tiers structure the experience. The entry-level option focuses on pork and chicken at a lower price point. The mid-tier package brings in Black Angus beef, Argentinian tongue, Koji Buta pork, and Korean soy-marinated shrimp. The premium tier adds Tajima Wagyu Marbled MBS 4-5, along with multiple Black Angus cuts including brisket, oyster blade, Karubi, and Picanha, bringing the total protein count to 19 items.
Along the protein lineup, the kitchen sends out Korean-style appetisers, soups, rice, vegetable accompaniments, and a full spread of side dishes. Travel and Leisure Asia highlights the Korean-style marinated shrimp, braised eggs, and tteokbokki as essential table orders. Homemade soft-serve ice cream in seasonal flavours including honey and Hokkaido milk, lavender, and sweet plum arrives as a one-cup inclusion per person to close the meal.
The restaurant is open Tuesday through Sunday from 11:00 to 21:00, closed on Mondays. Payment is cash only. Reservations are available. The venue is notable for reportedly controlling smoke well for an indoor charcoal grill, which matters for guests attending other commitments after dinner. The nearest transit access is Samyan MRT, and the Block 28 complex is a short walk from both Chulalongkorn University and the Samyan Mitrtown mall.
