The Pumpkin Tortellini and Gnocchi con Short Rib Ragu appetizers were a great start. The Osso Bucco is wonderful, highly recommended. Frank the manager is always great and so were our servers Valentin and Gustavo.

Great meal! Always good food. Sautéed spinach is always overcooked, so dont recommend. But other than that, great spot for Italian and fish!

To start with the positives, there aren’t much better ways to spend your Friday evening than sitting down at a packed restaurant. A smaller dining room with close seating and a buzzing energy from all the patrons is a rare find. This close knit atmosphere is one of my favorite parts of dining. It makes it all the better that the restaurant stands just steps from the water. I hate to say it but the food did not live up to the back drop. We ordered a meatball appetizer and, while flavorful, it was served lukewarm and was reminiscent of leftovers after a few short minutes. For the entree, we each ordered a pasta dish. The noodles seemed to be drowned in a combination of sauce, water, and oil. By the time you twirled a bite of pasta onto your fork, there wasn’t much of anything left on the noodle. I understand this sounds “nitpicky” but for a $40 pasta dish at a restaurant that holds a 4.9 star review, it was all just a little disappointing. The service was above average. I love an attentive wait staff but at times tonight we felt bombarded with check ins. This is something you’d expect at a casual dining experience but with Mangiamo’s decades of rave reviews, I was expecting a more professional approach to the service. The wine list is amazing. It had everything I would’ve expected from a fine dining Italian restaurant; from Barolo to Antinori to even a great new world selection. Really top notch list that they should be proud of. I’ve had the opportunity to work in the service industry for over 10 years and I get how difficult running a consistent dining experience is. I’m looking forward to giving Mangiamo another shot, I think I may have just caught them on an off night.

The food and service was fantastic! The noise level was high, so had to talk loud. But a great place to dine.
