I recently began physical therapy near the restaurant. This past Wednesday was my first time trying this restaurant and I am absolutely obsessed with the Zuppa Di Pesce (white and red sauce). I’ve been here for 4 days straight just to eat this dish. The drinks alongside are great, the ambience is very pleasing and peaceful. Moreover, the staff are very friendly and nice since I’ve been coming here. I swear to this restaurant that Maggiano’s will NEVER see me again. You have a new customer ❤️ .

Our date night was absolutely fantastic. The atmosphere was elegant, cozy and quiet. Everyone, from the host to our server Roy was just great. Roy really made our date special. Very attentive, polite, funny and always had a smile. Great menu selections including the daily specials. We had the Salmon Siciliano and Chicken Giambotta and food was delicious . We also had white wine and asked Roy for recommendations and it was perfect for each of our tastes. Coming back soon, can’t recommend enough. Than you Roy and staff for a great dining experience.

It felt like an experience. The atmosphere was bright & elegant. Everything we ate tasted nothing less than amazing. Nothing was too salty or too sweet or too greasy. We started w the calamari appetizer, the calamari was so tender and fried delicately not too greasy, perfect flavor and crunch . Then I got the shrimp agli olio … amazing, but I was too full after the salad bread and calamari.
The complimentary bread was soft, fluffy and crispy on the outside . The creamy Italian dressing stole the show for the salad included w our entree . Nathan our server was very polite and didn’t rush things and let us enjoy our date. He was very pleasant and upbeat. My husband got the Zuppa de Pesci and it did not disappoint. The white wine sauce w seafood had excellent flavor. For dessert I had to try the tiramisu , it was again nothing short of amazing as the flavors were perfectly balanced and a delicious end to our meal. We brought our own bottle of wine and the paid the Corking fee of $20 but was worth it !! Overall I was very pleased with the whole experience and my tastebuds satisfied. I would recommend to all of my friends.

I visited Mambo Italiano for the first time and was genuinely impressed. As someone who needs gluten-free options, I was thrilled to hear the have wide variety and most items on the menu can be modified. Our server, Nathan, was incredibly knowledgeable about everything and made the whole experience even better with his friendly and personable attitude.
I ordered the seafood risotto, which was one of the specials, and it was absolutely incredible. The portion was generous, the flavors were spot-on, and I couldn’t believe how affordable it was for the amount of food I got.
The entire staff was attentive and welcoming, clearing plates immediately. I’ll absolutely be back; this place is a gem!

Perfect place for a romantic dinner, a gathering, celebratory dinner.
Came here with my husband for the first time for a date night and it was a wonderful time.
The staff is amazing and very attentive to their guests. I spilled my wine all over the table as soon as they brought it out, and I cannot tell you how FAST it was all cleaned up and ready for us to resume our dinner. They made me feel very welcomed and reassured me that it wasn’t a big deal. Out server refilled my glass. The food was wonderful and fresh!
Highly recommend will definitely come back soon!

Baked Clams breading not so great, they tasted like they had too much butter, that was overcoooked & it was mushy… The seafood risotto was delicious, the rice was just under. The Lobster appetizer & fried ravioli were amazing, along with the bread.

We did not have a reservation, so we were only able to sit at the bar to eat. The bartender appeared to be overwhelmed despite a small bar crowd. He wasn’t friendly but wasn’t rude either. Drinks are just average at best and very expensive – would not recommend. The food was okay but leaning on the salty side. I was a little disappointed that my beef and veal ravioli special came with a brown gravy sauce. It reminded me of a McCormick’s brown gravy packet. At the price point they were charging, I should have stuck with a regular pasta dish. The stuffed gnocchi special was flavorful, but also decadent and salty. I was appalled when we saw that stuffed gnocchi with two meatballs was $36. They do not list prices for the drinks or the dinner specials, which feels purposely misleading. I would have likely passed on the gnocchi dish had I known the price up front. On a positive note, the ambience was nice, and there was live music. Stick to the regular menu so you know won’t be sticker shocked. Our bill for two adults with one appetizer, two entrees, two cocktails, and dessert was over $150. I don’t mind paying that kind of money for a phenomenal meal and drinks, but it just didn’t meet expectations.

Fabulous experience. Really old- school looking dining areas and nice staff. Our server, Liz, was amazing. She kindly recommended several dishes that we absolutely loved! She was patient, kind, knowledgeable, and friendly. Started off with Lobster Ravioli as our appetizer with Pomegranate Martinis, then Minestrone, and a salad (ranch dressing was different- almost like a vinaigrette); entrees were Lasagna with marinara sauce (which was so fresh and flavorful), and Scallops with asparagus in a divine lemon sauce with Rigatoni and Alfredo, which tasted like I’d died and gone to Heaven. As if that weren’t enough, we decided to get a slice each of Carrot and Chocolate cake. Delicious! Only part I didn’t care for is the parking lot, it’s got weird angles and the spaces seem tiny. Small price to pay for a great dining experience.

We have been going to Mambo for years and have yet to have a bad meal! Our server John was extremely knowledgeable and helpful as he went through all their specials (of which there were many). The pasta dishes were amazing (pasta is made in house) and the seafood was delicious! We will be back!
