15 of us came for dinner and had one of the best nights out in such a long time! Kenzie our server was so much fun & accommodated our group well. Nobody had to wait for drinks or refills, and food all came out in a good amount of time. Porkchop (the cook) made the whole night, delivering our meals & cracking jokes with us. The food was amazing, would absolutely come back again!

We had an exceptional meal to celebrate my wife’s birthday. So happy they are back to using their original recipes. Tootsie rolls to Ravena were excellent. Our server Ashlie is absolutely the best! She is attentive and very welcoming. So ready wait for our next visit.

Lovely little place with plenty of charm. We made a reservation ahead of time, and they left a cute Happy Anniversary note for us! Staff are very friendly and attentive. It was a cool experience to see the kitchen in action from our seat! The food came in large portions and all tasted great.

Much-needed girls’ night and this place understood the assignment. Sat at the counter, watched the team work like a perfectly choreographed show, and loved that they even talked with us. The food was incredible—per usual, never misses. Shoutout to Laura, our server, who was absolute perfection: fun, attentive, and on top of everything. Amazing vibes, amazing food, 10/10 will absolutely be back.

We chose Mambo’s on the recommendation of a co-worker for our anniversary dinner. Thankfully we had made reservations well in advance as it was quite busy. We got the Italian nachos to start, which were huge. We probably could have just ordered those. I got the salmon with olive tenpenad and my wife got the Pasta Ravenna, both were pretty good. Staff were friendly and they welcomed us with a happy anniversary. Thanks so much for dinner!

After traveling from Spokane Washington specifically for this restaurant, we were nothing but impressed! The atmosphere was so cozy with nice music playing. The service was outstanding and you can tell the chef puts his heart into his cooking. Everything tasted amazing and the flavors were spot on. We all agreed we would travel just to enjoy a meal from Mambo Italiano again! Thank you staff and chef!

Rating food 3 stars because we never got to try any food. It looked good but I can’t comment on how it tastes. Atmosphere is very nice, with a small local neighborhood Italian restaurant feeling. Rating service 1 star and the restaurant 3 stars overall for the following experience:
My wife and I came in on a Sunday evening for dinner. There was no wait time and we were seated immediately. The hostess immediately brought us water, then we waited for 20 minutes at our table with no communication from wait staff whatsoever. No server ever came to greet us, take our drink or food orders, even tell us that they’re busy and will be with us in a moment. There were two servers covering the section we were seated in who tended to the other tables in our section multiple times while we waited, with not even a look in our direction. We ended up leaving, unnoticed by any other staff members as we walked out the door.
Very disappointing service from a relatively small but not full restaurant that is well rated on Google. We ended up walking over to the Abruzzo Italian restaurant, which is 3x the size and was twice as busy that night, and we were waited on within minutes after being seated.

I had the pleasure of dining at this adorable restaurant, and from the moment we walked in, we felt right at home. The welcoming atmosphere was enhanced by the delightful aromas filling the air and the warm smiles from both the staff and fellow patrons.
We tried a variety of dishes, and I must say, the portions were generous and the flavors exceeded our expectations. Each dish tasted even better than it looked!
The wait staff was exceptional – friendly, attentive, and checked in on us multiple times without being overbearing. It’s rare to find such attentive service, and it truly enhanced our experience.
We’ll definitely be returning for another wonderful meal!
