    Enjoyed an evening with my mother in law and Fíance, very beautiful location, food was delicious. Only thing that was an irk was the lack of fountain soda. The only options being can or glass. I didn’t ask, but I would assume refills are not free. I understand it is restaurant choice, and just wish it was clearly listed in the menu (menu lists fountain). Otherwise, wonderful meal, service, and ambience. We will definitely be back.

    I really like the place. Ambience was really good. We didn’t have to wait for our table (we did reservations). Our server was great. But the next time (definitely it’s going to be a next time) I will order a different dish. I ordered a risotto with mushrooms, which it wasn’t bad, but not the best I ever had. I ordered with a breaded chicken. I would try either the lasagna or the carbonara. I would give it 4.5 stars from 5. And again, because of the risotto. Everything else was perfect.

    I thought it was a cute family owned businesses. I can see that they clearly have so much love and passion but personally the food was mid and I hate to say it when the people were so sweet. Also it wasn’t that busy and service was pretty slow. I think it was intentional to make us relax but we aren’t those kind of people so we were just anxious.

    This was the best meal we have had in a very long time. There were 8 of us - so no easy feat. Our server, Tonino, was absolutely outstanding - we had a great time and the food was fantastic. There have been too many instances lately of dissapointment in restaurants for us. We are happy to say that Mangia was the exact opposite. Thank you!!

    The chicken parmigiana with the spicy sauce along with the homemade fettuccini was great. Our waitress, Madison, is the best! Will continue to go there. The Fresca salad is really good too.
