Harden's says
From the Thesleff group – who already run top Japanese venues like Juno and Luna – this new new luxury Japanese restaurant and bar occupies the Mayfair site just off Park Lane vacated by Raya (RIP) and will offer an upscale version of the Japanese dining and cocktails the group also provides at its two Los Mochis operations. Executive Chef Leo Tanyag showcases Japan’s culinary traditions, while the bar, led by Pietro Collina, provides a late-night experience. With 156 covers and a Private Dining Room for up to 20 guests, MA/NA is said to embody the philosophy of 'mana' which apparently has many translations from Japanese depending on the context, including ‘true food’.

For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
