Mana= mana, is an edible substance which God provided for the Israelites during their travels in the desert during the forty-year period following the Exodus and prior to the conquest of Canaan.

They are small taste great and really cheap to buy

White Mana Diner, what does the word mana, translate into english?

Wow

Are the burgers greasy? cant remember.

Yes . But very good

Had to tel him to change his gloves

Still would eat from here

Do they sell fish sandwiches?

I believe they do, like fish patties but i wouldn't eat a fish sandwich from them, not saying they are dirty just that it's a burger joint all their grills are going to contaminate your fish with beef bacteria. Just a thought.

What spice is in the burger that makes it taste so good

Salt

Do they serve grit & Cheese

No

As the name implies, this is food from the heavens. Food is always made fresh in front of you when you order. My Friday nights start here with a dozen sliders, cross the highway for some drinks at the Ringside Lounge and then a little fun at the Roadway in. White Mana keeps it simple with their menu and lets the quality of their food speak for itself!

I don't know what is the obssession with this place. Yeah it's been there for years. They are famous for burgers apparently. I got to say they were not so great. They were more like homemade white castles. Not very tasty and not grilled right in my opinion. Don't waste your time here. And definitely don't bring family. We'll at least not the wife. It's more like a trucker place.

Good, quick and inexpensive burgers and the service was great. Great place to go if you're a history buff. The building was originally at the 1939 NY World's Fair and was moved to NJ.

I celebrated my PhD last night in this delicious restaurant. I am glad to say that we enjoyed a enjoyable evening and the restaurant was no doubt one of the reasons for that outstanding event. The waiters cooperated in a pleasant manner, the food was extremely good and my guests were very happy. We shall surely visit again for more events. thanks very much.

UPDATE 6/18/18: Double 1/4 lb. burger was TERRIFIC, substantial, fresh and fabulous. Next time, I'll try three patties - why not?Love this place, even though I'm not a sliders kind of guy. Only regret was not asking the cook to add two extra patties to this 1/4 lb. burger to get it to the heft I'm accustomed to ... and, add copious amounts of bacon ... but it was alright! Love the history, the ambiance, the service ... location is a bit of a PITA at rush hour, though, as Tonelle Avenue is a divided highway and the area is saturated with cars (there are only two ways to exit the lot and getting where you need to go is tough unless the kindness of strangers comes into play - there was none to be had for me last night!) Definitely worth the stop, either way!

This place is not the same. Pricey. It's like having bad White Castles. Really run down place. It's a good place to go when you'r really drunk. The grill looks like something from 1965. Although there is a lot of parking. Must be new owners. Won't be returning.

A Jersey classic. I had a hangover and went here on Sunday morning for the cure. Mission accomplished. A couple of sliders with some fries and it was good as I remember. I usually hit the Hackensack location but this was just as good if not better. If you need sliders this is the spot.

I go to Jersey City now and then so I've been driving past this place for over 30 years, always thinking I should stop and see what's up, and tonight I said what the hell, and did.The history, atmosphere, and the place's unique architecture are the story to me. Plus edible eats at bygone prices.The building, with its cozy circular counter dates to the NY World's Fair of 1939, and it's been run by only two families ever since, for about 40 years each, and they definitely show pride of ownership in how they run and talk about their place.The burgers recall White Castle, except without the holes and at least double the thickness.Nothing's gussied up or gourmet, so do accept it on its own period terms. I did, and I'll be back.It's really iconic, and I hope it's there for another 40 years and more.

The burgers was decent for the price the buns were too doughie had to chew too much and the onion rings were probably jus taken out of the freezer and dropped in the oil it was like onion mush with breading around it but over all the burgers were good for the price

Burgers at it's best. For now, take out with burgers that are made in it's original formulation from 1946 still in the same modest location and small facade with ample parking space. Buns, burgers patties all made in house for the best tasting fresh made burgers cooked right in front of you.

Love this place. As someone who worked in the business I can't stand that nobody there can work the grill. A line out the door and the grill man asks the first 4 people on line how many burgers, this leaves 2 feet of grill space. Fill up the grill. You sell burgers. The people waiting on line want burgers. They'll move.

I went here when I was little a got a real cheese steak on a sub roll. It was the best. But I just went here today and we ordered cheesesteaks.. the guy got an attitude when I asked for a different type of cheese- they only have American. Well excuse me you can tell me in a polite manner.. also our cheesteaks were served on WHITE WONDER BREAD. What kind of cheesteaks is that? We were very disappointed to say the least.. must be new owner because years ago they used to make legit food.. also we paid 25 dollars for two tiny sandwiches and mozzarella sticks we could've made ourselves for 1.50.. enjoy..

Open 24 hours, this uniquely designed building on a busy corner in New Jersey serves up sliders of all types. We went with the $7 special with 3 sliders, fries, and a drink. Famous patrons include Mike Tyson...which by coincidence you can also see where he keeps his pigeons a couple houses down from restaurant.
