    Missed the mark tonight. Sloppy over sauced Carbonara and inedible salad with sorry greens including onions which were requested to be removed. Server Samantha was excellent as was the Calamari.

    For Easter I’d say they did an exceptional job. Service was fast and very friendly. The food was outstanding. We loved everything beyond the heat. However, it wasn’t their fault. We added two to our party of 12 and they didn’t have a table for us inside.

    Always a fabulous dinner, we are early diners at their original space. The service is excellent. All the staff is super friendly. It’s one of our favorite restaurants 1978 , very talented chef. The whole family is awesome. I especially recommend the Puttanesca. My husband’s favorite are the fettuccine and the lobster and mushroom raviolis They have one of the best tiramisu also. The prices are also very reasonable for what I consider upscale dishes. You can also get pizza which I hear is great

    The food is always so fresh, creative and delicious. Our server Madison always takes the best care, Michelin star level care and attentiveness. It’s the best place in town.

    We celebrated our anniversary with an outstanding family meal at Mangia. We have been here several times and have never been disappointed. We weren't this time! The food was excellent as always and we were so glad they had their homemade sangia tonight. They make a limited supply each day and it often runs out. The food helpings are very plentiful. I will say the service was a little slow this time but it wasn't to thebpoint of complaining. They also offer a veterans discount. Overall we loved it...as usual.

    Strange atmosphere, the resturant feels like it tries too hard to be italian. The food was quite good, I recommend the Meat Lovers Pizza. The staff were friendly but you could tell they were bored and interacted with us a lot.
