This restaurant’s inspiration comes from the elegance and simplicity of the desert. Its name, “Manta,” partially refers to manta rays and partly nods to the Spanish word manta, which means canvas. This double entendre alludes to the restaurant’s fresh seafood and artistic expression. Chef du cuisine Abisai Sanchez takes inspiration for its cuisine from Mexico, Peru, Japan, and more.

The Ledge blends modern Mexican with traditional American flavors in a casual, beachside environment. Guests can start their day off right with some eggs and French toast and sample freshly-caught, locally-sourced seafood throughout the day.
