White Manna's HEAVENLY Burger Sliders in New Jersey!

I am from Jersey and I absolutely love this place. Thank you so much UA! You post the best food from the NJ and NY area.Love your content,please keep doing what you do ❤️

I used to hang out in Jersey but it was mostly south Jersey. It’s arguably the best states due to the convenient location of the northeast corridor of the U.S.

Looks like a classic Oklahoma Onion Burger in slider form. I approve :)

[@uaeats]

Interesting! It sounds like I need to try an Oklahoma onion burger sometime!

[@AKhan.28]

@@uaeats Yah the origins of the burger come from the great depression. They used to smash onions into the patty to cut down on costs. Ended up becoming a staple

[@Trblsum96]

@@uaeats absolutely you do! Have you tried the birthplace of the hamburger yet, Louis’ Lunch in New Haven, CT?

[@lepkeb2252]

Was at White Manna a few weeks ago for the first time. Delicious sliders just so perfect in their simplicity. And by the way I think the Jersey City location is not related to the Hackensack location.

[@janicepagano9200]

They are not

[@BaiLong45]

Awesome! Great to see you give Hackensack White Mana some love. Burgers there are excellent.

[@uaeats]

They are delicious!

[@mustbenicemusic]

Have you ever done a video talking about yourself… just for the fans? You know… like I’d love to hear how you get around so much? How it started? What you did for work? You always kinda hint that you lived in a lot of places. I know I’d love to hear a little behind the scenes but maybe you like the mystery. Either way it’s aaaallll good. You should do some Nashville hot chicken… lol. Bodega breakfast, ramen, BBQ…. Wherever you go, I’ll be checkin it out.

[@paulroberts826]

I live a town over and this place is legendary. Really fortunate to be so close to such an historic landmark. Great review!

[@sturm3n]

An interesting bit of history: there used to be a few "White Mana Diners" in the area, but only the two you mention remain. They're also now separate, each operated by separate owners. And if I may editorialize: I definitely prefer the sliders at the Jersey City location!

[@uaeats]

Thanks for sharing! I didn't know that. Is that why the Hackensack location is spelled with two Ns? I'll have to compare and contrast the Hackensack and JC locations sometime!

[@soavemusica]

Actually, it wasn`t beef. PSALM 105: 40 "The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven." One should be thankful, when thanks are due, as it is written: PSALM 81: 10 "Open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it." The US is becoming post-Christian, like Europe.

[@patrickgaynor8730]

Spot on, I agree and prefer the JC location too. Fries are different in JC for some reasons, but usually get the cheese fries.

[@DW-xt7vz]

I lived in NYC for four years and ate here weekly. To this day, they are still the best and I always stop in when I travel to NYC. A crab and pork soup dumpling, a Shanghai fried rice, a Shanghai fried flat noodles, a sesame beef, and pea shoots is my ultimate meal. I’ve tried every where else and honestly can’t find better or even remotely as good. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Mikegees]

Looks good.. lived and been to Jersey many times.. never heard of this place… will go when I go back…

[@glentanner4770]

Those things look like there packed with flavor. We need more burger joints like this out here in California.

[@ramencurry6672]

I’m pretty sure there’s a hidden great burger place in California. California is an above average food state. A lot of really good delicious places are kind of hidden.

[@uaeats]

They're great! I highly recommend checking it out if you're ever in North Jersey!

[@carloslaguna-driscoll5319]

I once worked for a political party that sent us all over NY/NJ to knock on doors... one time I ended up in Hackensack with my boy the weed man Duncan and blew off work to come to this diner. Have been searching for it ever since.... these are so good.

[@uaeats]

Yep I used to come here all the time when I had a job in the area. It never disappointed. Thanks for sharing your connection to the place!!

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

love your content man. i egt good ideas when your holding up the menus. awesome reviews

[@CherylPrinjinski]

I grew up in Hackensack and loved that place. Cheese burgers the best. You have to get at least 4, I usually picked up a dozen, even good as left overs.

[@andychen4810]

I agree with the other comments. The song at the end was a nice touch.

[@TonyTony.321]

The burgers look delicious! 😋 If you’re ever in West Springfield, MA you have to try White Hut. They serve cheeseburgers with fried onions, hot dogs, and fries. They’ve been around since 1939. Another place about 10 miles north in Holyoke, MA is Nick’s Nest. They’re known for their hot dogs and have been around since 1921.

[@WanderingRoe]

LOL @ song at the end 🤣🤣🤣 We all have our one restaurant we’d like to devote a song to

[@michaelmalone7789]

I recently went to the JC location for the first time & it was fantastic! Need to try a double the next time

From what I understand, the White Mana in Jersey City is completely unrelated to the White Manna in Hackensack. I currently live in southern Bergen County, 7 miles from White Manna and 5 miles from White Mana. I always choose White Manna unless I need to be in Jersey City and I'm craving a burger.

Two places to try. Rutt's Hut for hot dogs and Kinchley's pizza in Ramsey NJ

Agreed, way overrated. Went as a kid and went again as an adult after playing games at Icehouse. Same as I remembered as a kid and not worth going back. Although they are cooked on a griddle, the flavor and texture of the burgers resemble more boiled ground beef than something that came off a griddle. Passed by many times after late night hockey games with a huge appetite not even considering making a stop there. Did he seriously say that these these 2 are related and say the Hackensack location is the superior one…yet he never tried the one in JC? Also the one in JC is White MaNa(one N) and there is no relation, their burgers don’t even resemble one another. I don’t think the White Mana in JC is anything to write home about either, and definitely not worth the drive from south Jersey, but their patties are definitely superior(although they do not use potato rolls). They’re sourced from Pat LaFrieda(like his favorite Shake Shack, albeit a different blend as Shake Shack’s is proprietary and splurges for dry aged) whose warehouse is down the street on Tonnele Ave in North Bergen.

Ok, it is a good burger and always hits the spot. BUT? Let’s be honest, this is extremely overrated. They use Martin’s potato buns, regular deli cheese, and frozen patties. The cooking with the onions is what binds the flavors. Nothing special. Good but not worth a trip or a wait.
