Mangia Mondays meal deal for two is a great way to sample a bunch of their dishes. Even better was the service. Our server Phil (5th grade teacher by day) was excellent. He knew exactly what to do to make our first experience memorable.

I got the fish taco ... yum yum yum but this time the fish was so small. One tiny piece per taco. For $19, unacceptable. But, but.... the manager recognized the error and took half of the price! For half the fish, they was appreciated. Id still get it again. Yum

The food was reasonably priced and tasted average. The dessert was overcooked and burnt inside. It was removed from the bill. Bathrooms could have been cleaner. Seating area could have been cleaner. Wait staff did not clear the tables between courses of meals.
